According to some thread I read but seem to have closed, those recorded stats are purely used to display what apps have been using battery. The actual battery meter doesn't use them at all.
And yes, used different chargers and cables.
How old is the phone? My mother in law's S3 started doing a similar thing recently just before the end of her contract. I said it might be the battery so she bought a new one and it seemed to help for a bit then stopped charging after a bit. No idea if s factory reset would have helped. Worth a try.
Not 100% sure, it's an ebay phone (she lost her original one, a week after cancelling the bloody insurance)
My nexus 7 battery started acting pretty weird after last couple of android updates (I actually thought it was close to dead since I couldn't get it to charge at all for a couple of days, even overnight). Now I can get it to charge only if I make sure to turn off the screen, even when in docking mode when all it displays is a clock. Then it will charge pretty fast, and last pretty well. The other thing I noticed is that immediately after an android update and for a couple of weeks after, all my apps get updates too which can really eat into battery life.
Just done a fair they rest and it charged for a while, but now is refusing to believe there's a USB lead plugged in. I'm leaning towards it being the USB socket (seems a weak link in the design), it can't rule out the battery.
Looks Damn fiddly to replace the USB socket, but those qi pads are only a tenner on eBay... :D
Actually, I wonder if I could make it charge and check the battery by applying 5v to the wireless charging pickup...
It's tempting to think it's the socket because it gets wobbly fairly quickly. I also bought a new cable and it made no difference for me (though it's nice to have the spare I can leave at work).
On batter monitor widget it showed net drain, even when plugged into the wall wart charger (vs. usb --> pc), and when using the dock (separate pins on the tablet, not the tablet's usb socket), so I concluded it was a software/android thing.
... and in he best part of ah hour the battery has gone down by 4%.
Anyone have any experience with aftermarket batteries? Proving difficult to find a genuine one (as they all claim to be when they're clearly not)
