Battery indicator indicates 100% responsible at all times

My battery indicator Pavilion dv4-2161nr in the lower right corner of the screen shows 100% charged at all times.  When I'm working on the energy of the battery only and I know that the battery indicator continue to show 100%.  After a few hours of work, computer laptop everything stops.  I am able to charge and run indicator on battery for a good time but never changes.  It also shows when the battery is running on current alternative with plugged adapter and the battery is in a State of charging a battery is full.  Any help would be appreciated.

Hello

First, shut down the laptop, unplug the power adapter, remove the battery and then hold the Power button for 30 seconds.

Now, plug in the AC adapter without the battery inserted, start Notepad, open windows control panel, open Device Manager, expand the entry for the battery, on the right, click on and compatible Microsoft ACPI control method battery and select Uninstall - do uninstall not something else here.  When the uninstall is complete, shut down the laptop, unplug the AC adapter, reinsert the battery, then start the computer turned on just the battery.  Windows will automatically reinstall the driver - leave Windows running for a few minutes and see if the battery level decreases as it should.

Kind regards

  • Satellite R850 - faulty battery indicator? How to calibrate?

    My Satellite R850 stops at about 70% of the battery capacity. It is not suspended, just power off. Market is possible only when the AC adapter is reconnected. My first guess is that (after only a year of daily use), the battery had its best time and must be replaced.

    But why the battery indicator only shows the right capacity, so I can get a warning to low battery power?
    Is there a tool or method for recalibrating the battery?

    Hello

    To me, that shows that your battery is defective.
    Usually sooner or later each battery needs to be replaced because the battery life is limited.
    I have no idea how old your battery is but in my case the battery is 5 years old and he hold the power for about 2 min only. But the funny thing is that the battery indicator indicates battery is fully charged (100%).

    However, you can extend the lifetime of battery a little bit. You need to calibrate the battery from time to time in charge and discharge of battery. This procedure should be repeated several times is the row
    But I guess these calibrations and your battery failure doesn't help much.

  • Battery indicator blackBerry Z10 is stuck at 100%

    After I've updated by BB Z10 for 10.2.1.2102 / 2141, the battery indicator always shows 100%. Even when the batteries get exhausted. Downside is that the phone suddenly stops after its battery is discharged. Before stopping this moemtarily shows the color indicator of battery as red (empty), beeps and stops.

    Have tried a number of things such as take out the battery during the charge and replacement, removed a number of apps but no use. I think that its an OS problem.

    Try a new battery.

  • First time for 7 hours now, battery indicator still red in charge

    My husband sent me Sansa Fuze 4 G and I did pay for 7 hours now and the battery indicator shows her full (green), but when I remove the USB key, he returns to the red color mode (almost lowbat)...

    What does that mean? What should I do?

    How did he pay? Some desktop PC have USB ports before do not put out enough power. Use a rear USB port. Some laptops set to very low power USB when it's on battery. If loading a laptop, make sure that the laptop is plugged into a power outlet. The battery in the player may be charged, but the battery indicator will need to recalibrate itself. Try to use the player for a long when (maybe 10 hours or more if he will play as long), then load it again. My battery indicator also acted weird rocket first load cycles.

  • NB200 - battery indicator shows the life of the battery in percentage

    Hello
    Someone had this problem?

    My (Windows and also the PM from Toshiba) battery indicator does not show remaining battey in minute but life only in percentage.
    is this correct or there are some strage parameters in power setting menu?

    Thank you

    Mine did the same thing, it's just how it is in XP. But I think the Vista energy saver indicates the remaining time.

    I think you'll need to download a battery of Internet utility to display the remaining time.

  • Satellite C650: Battery indicator is always orange even after a full charge

    My toshiba laptop C650 has indicator sistem to always load amber.
    Even if it is fully charged.

    If I disconnect from charger it works on battery long enough, that tell me may battery is ok.
    But why this indicator stay amber? Is there a problem?

    I have to worry about this?
    Thank you.

    Hello

    Usually, the battery indicator should go green (color depending on phone model) if the battery is fully charged.
    If the battery indicator changes not amber green/blue then this would mean that the battery is not completely charged
    Well, maybe you should try to calibrate the battery once more
    Discharge the battery to his completely empty, then load it again until the battery status would show 100% charge then discharge the battery once again this procedure should be repeated two, three times in the line!

    If this is not enough, well, you might try a new battery but I put t know if its worth it to buy a new battery if the current battery still works well.

  • Yellow battery indicator. What doe this mean?

    MY battery indicator is yellow, and the load is 79%. This indicates a fault with the battery?

    This means that you have activated the power of your iPhone, mode economy by accident.

    Settings > farm > disable "Low Power Mode".

    Generally, it only asks if you want to enable this mode when your battery gets low, but you can have inadvertently turned in another way. It can be turned on even if the iPhone is 100%

  • Clock and battery indicator went

    Hey, I've finally updated to OS X El Capitan last night. Everything goes a lot overall, I love the new features and the whole system runs a lot faster. The only problem I have is that since I've updated the clock and battery indicator are no longer visible in the status bar at the top of my screen. Does anyone else have a similar issue or know how to recover? I'm running it on my early 2013 13 "Macbook Pro retina. Thank you

    Note aside, is there a way to display images here? This is my first post so I am new on how it all works and I want to post a screenshot of what appears on the status bar.

    You went in the preferences-> Energy Saver system and provided for the option to display the status of the battery is turned on?

    Have you went into the preferences system-> Date time & -> clock and ensured that the option to display the date & time in the menu bar is turned on?

  • Battery indicator

    Hi all

    I have a European Atrix G4 running Gingerbread 2.3.4. I've noticed in recent weeks when the charge is complete, the phones screen will show only 90% full. I can let it charge overnight, and it will still read: load (90%).

    No idea as to the cause or the solution to return to 100% charged, anyone?

    Concerning

    Walter

    Hi all

    After surfing all the Atrix forums, I found a solution to allow the battery to run. The phone then stop his car. Recharge the battery when the phone is turned off. When the battery is fully charged, the green light turns on, but the battery icon shows 90%. Turn on the phone and check the status on the menu 'a phone connection'. Here, it shows that the battery is full 100%. It worked for me (so far) and the use of the battery improved.

    I think this recalculates the battery and put it in harmony with the battery indicator.

    So, for me, well. I hope that it stays that way.

    Hope this helps other people with the same problem

  • Y580 does not start after the battery indicator reset

    Hi fans of Lenovo! 3 months now since I bought a Lenovo y580. A notebook of beast when it comes to games. Recently, I tried to use a preinstalled software from Lenovo to reset my battery indicator because it showed an erroneous accusation. The software did his thing - he charged the battery to 100%, then acquitted at 0 and off my laptop. Now, it does not - turn the button market / stop just makes battery LED flash 3 times and that's it! I tried to disconnect the battery and turn on - but nothing happens. What should I do?

    Remove the battery and plug in the computer if the computer turns on then it might be the battery.

    If this is not the computer may have messed up and bit.

    and to be sure to keep it plugged in for a while.

  • Iconia w4 820 battery stuck on 100%

    Hello world

    I bought a windows Tablet and my iconia battery indicator stucks on 100% (when), and when the battery run out, the screen (and to all of the Tablet) just off, like if I get out the power cable from the PC.

    Please help me

    There is a utility called BatteryInfoView that might help diagnose the problem. Give it a try and see if it shows the real situation of the battery. If it also always displays 100% then you probably have a hardware problem and need to contact Acer support. Let us know how it comes out.

  • Use of AC when the battery is at 100%? (S7-391)

    Hello world!

    I have been affected by the worst support from Acer, I have no problem with the ultrabook himself (Acer Aspire S7-391) but I have some doubts about pilots and other things, that they have avoided answering many ways. So, here's the thing:

    This ultrabook has all drivers that could be use the AC power when the battery charge reaches 100% to avoid tampering with the battery?

    The thing is that while I have 100% of the battery and the ultrabook is connected to the power adapter, it always seems to be draining the battery power and recharging it back to being 100% all the time.

    When I ask about the drivers, who might or might not be installed, I just need to find a way to access this functionality if possible, and if I can't, I need to know as soon as POSSIBLE so that I can start unplug the laptop right after that the battery has reached 100%.

    Thanks in advance.

    As you said with Connector 2 power pins can also disconnect the battery charge. It can disconnect the power supply from the battery charging circuit when the battery reaches a particular % with the laptop running load in power cables. I do not think that your computers support portable setting the level of charge of battery to a % custom. Your laptop must have a particular hardware and BIOS that supports. In some laptops, the BIOS has the ability to define a particular % of battery charge. I read somewhere that windows 8 do not support this feature, old version of windows (Vista) support this feature.

    Some write up I found online to help you.

    Memory effect

    First of all, it is necessary to unfold a myth that persists in the minds of many people.

    The effect of stack memory.

    In the basis of lithium batteries, it is in fact a myth, it applies only to the old nickel-based batteries. Therefore fully discharge and recharge the battery are completely useless and even harmful as discussed below.

    The modern lithium battery can be charged independently of its current percentage, because he has absolutely no negative effect in his performances.

    Should I remove the battery when the a/c is connected?

    Many users of portable computers have this question and we will answer it right now:

    The answer is: YES and NO, it depends on the situation.

    Have a fully charged battery and the laptop is connected is not harmful, because as soon as the load level of 100% of the battery stops receiving the energy load and this energy is shorted directly on the power of the laptop system.

    However, there is a downside to keep the battery in the holder when the laptop is plugged in, but only if he currently suffers from excessive warming caused by the hardware of the laptop.

    So:

    -In normal use, if the laptop does not get too hot (CPU and hard drive around 40 ° c to 50 ° c) the battery must remain into the Jack of the laptop;

    -Intensive use, which leads to a large amount of heat produced (i.e. games, temperatures over 60 ° c) the battery should be removed the socket in order to avoid unwanted heating.

    The heat between the fact that he has 100% load, is the great enemy of the lithium battery and not the plug, as many might think so.

    Battery discharging

    Full battery discharges (until the computer laptop power shutdown, 0%) should be avoided, because he insists a lot on the battery and may even damage it. It is recommended to perform partial discharge to levels of capacity of 20 ~ 30% and frequent accusations, instead of performing a complete discharge followed for a full charge.

    Laptop PC battery contain a gauge of capacity that allows us to know the exact amount of stored energy. However, due to the charge/discharge cycles, this sensor tends to be inaccurate overtime.

    Some laptops include in their BIOS, tools to recalibrate the battery meter, which is nothing else than a full discharge followed by a charge complete.

    So to calibrate the gauge, it is desirable, in all cycles 30 discharge, a full uninterrupted discharge, followed by a too, non-stop, full charge.

    An inaccurate gauge may have to the fact that the capacity of the battery are values are false. The battery can report that he still has 10% of capacity, when in fact it has a much lower value, and this causes the computer to the unexpected shutdown.

    Cycles of discharge (or charge) are to use this charge battery (100%), but not necessarily all at once.

    For example, you can use the laptop for a few minutes in a day, using half of its e ability then it load completely. If you did the same thing the next day, it can be considered a discharge cycle, not two, so it may take several days before finishing a complete discharge cycle.

  • Problem with battery indicator blackBerry Smartphones

    Hello

    my blackberry torch battery indicator is displayed continuously like a battery empty red even when it is fully charged:

    It is said that the battery level is 1% since last night.

    I tried to recharge as well to the wall and from the PC, the bolt flashes (on the Red battery icon), but the level remains at 1% and the orange light blinks.

    After that what I believe is a sufficient time to fully recharge the battery, a "stopper" replaces the bolt flashing on battery (always red and empty) icon.

    The phone, once unplugged the sector, works perfectly, the only complaint, is that the battery indicator is always red, it says 1%, and the orange light blinks continuously; so I never know when the phone needs to really be recharged.

    Everyone knows the same problem? I don't think that the problem is in the battery, but somewhere in the software... suggestions?

    Thank you

    Hello again,

    I thought I'd give an update I solved the problem! The only solution is to get a new device.

    I tried many things, including not charging the phone at all until the battery really runs. In this case when I plugged it back I thought it worked well as it was very much in charge and the battery became white of empty Red... Unfortunately as soon as I unplugged the charger, the battery indicator is returned empty Red 1%.

    I called my provider ad, they sent me another combined (still a 9800 torch); I put my battery in it, and it works perfectly.
