On GSM, normal usage, connecting to WiFi on-demand (my normal usages) I get up to 2 days of use.
Hi!

I made a custom battery. I have some N9 battery with 1450mAh capacity. Replaced the battery protect circuit with the bl-5j's. Now I have a wonderful new battery.
The only problem, that I cannot calibrate it.

My method was:
1. Charge it full.
2. sudo gainroot; sh bq27200.sh
3. waiting for battery low alert.
4. sudo gainroot sh bq27200.sh 5
5. Wait until it switch off..

What did I wrong? After switch it back It says I have 1713mAh. But the status area indicator says 1292mAh. It is not consistant.

How can I make it for equivalent?

Thanks for your reply!!!

Just continue doing the same until capacity stops decreasing.
Calibration takes a few cycles...

Hi!

I'm also having some battery status reporting trouble; a new battery, the trouble started after a few weeks of use -- stopping to charge at 80% (as reported by battery-eye / status area), after clearing the data in battery eye, not seeing any charge info at all, etc.

At first I suspected the battery, but over the past few days I've done some calibration using bnf/bq27200.sh, and the battery itself seems to be doing great -- the numbers reported by the scripts are behaving consistently, and I'm getting good use out of each charge. However, the reporting in battery eye / hal / status area is still acting weird.

1. Is the calibration supposed to affect those, or are there two separate battery-status-reporting entities here?

2. I'm not even sure if I'm using stock BME or BME replacement -- how can I check? (I'm on CSSU Stable, switched to kernel-power-53 only about a month before getting the new battery; I didn't explicitly switch to BME replacement, but it's not clear to me if that happens automatically with kp53?)

Thanks!
Dov

Hello,

My steps:
1. modprobe -r bq27x00_battery
2. bq27200.sh
LOOPMODE=0
Reading values...........................done.

CSOC: 75 % RSOC: 75 %
Average Current: 191 mA
TTF: 65535 minutes TTE: 461 minutes
NAC: 1468 mAh CACD: 1468 mAh CACT: 1468 mAh
SI: 10 mA STTE: 8227 minutes
MLI: 979 mA MLTTE: 88 minutes
AR: 0 mA ARTTE: 65535 minutes
Last Measured Discharge: 1943 mAh
Cycle Count since Learning: 16 Total Cycle Count since last full reset: 16
Reported Battery Voltage: 3745 mV
Battery Gauge die Temperature: 28 C
Flags: 0x14
Charge:0 NOACT:0 IMIN:0 CI:1 CALIP:0 VDQ:1 EDV1:0 EDVF: 0
eeprom data:
ILMD=1958 EDVF=3000 EDV1=3248 ISLC=19
DMF=14700 nanoVolt SD=201 thousandths of percent per day
AGELMD=1 TAPER=97 mA
IMLC=979 mA
3. bq27200.sh 5
mv RSOC CSOC mA NAC CACD CACT TTF TTE TEMP EDV1 VDQ
03:03 3503 53 53 -35 1027 1027 1027 65535 1752 26 0 1
03:03 3192 53 53 -124 1026 1026 1026 65535 495 26 0 1
03:03 3351 53 53 -251 1026 1026 1026 65535 245 27 0 1
03:03 3261 53 53 -121 1026 1026 1026 65535 507 27 0 1
On those last values the n900 turns off. GSM was turned off and Brightness was on the low level. But EDV1 and VDQ was not changed.
I am found here:
https://wiki.maemo.org/Bme_replacement
Pali: Add two gconf values. First (bool) to enable shutdown device at EDV1 flag, second (int) to shutdown device at specified <= voltage. Default values: bool = true and int = 3150 (as suggested)
But not know which parameters must be changed with the gconf.
I use BME re and kp53.

Thanks.

Sorry, i am found that instruction on the http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...93&postcount=2
By this instruction calibration was made.

Thanks.
