Battery Charge Not Happening Consistantly With Gingerbread

Ever since the Gingerbread update, my phone has had issues with charging. Under Froyo, this was not a problem.
Here's the deal...
I plug in the device to charge up, it seems to get to 100% and then starts to drain power while plugged in. It will still display as 100% while plugged in, but once I unplug it well after it hits the 100% point, it then shows what the battery actually is at (ex. 67%). You might ask why I don't unplug it when it hits 100%, but some of those times are when I'm sleeping. When I wake up, it says 100%, but when I disconnect it from the charger, it'll really be like 80% and will display that immediately.
One day I had it plugged via USB to my work computer, it showed 100% the entire time. I was listening to streaming radio all day and because I wanted to be sure it would be fully charged at the end of my day, I kept it plugged in. When I unplugged, the battery was really only at 6% and gave me an immediate warning about my critical battery level. Again, this never was a problem before GIngerbread.
I did a battery pull to see if that would right the ship and I initially thought that it had for a day or two, but I just noticed that the issue returned this morning after taking it off the overnight charge and only showed up at 80% upon disconnect. The only thing I can think of that could have thrown it off is that I restarted my phone yesterday -- maybe that brought the problem back?
This isn't really a battery life issue as I've read in other posts. I'm not noticing any problems with how long the charge last. The only problem I'm having is getting it charged to 100% and keeping it that way until I unplug it.
Sorry for the length, but I wanted to be descriptive of the issue. Anyone else have this problem since Gingerbread? Any solutions?

I have seen the 60% issue after it was sitting on the charger, the notification panel had said 100%, but when I finally got around to unplugging the charger it was now 60%...
I have oddly seen a similar activity even when the phone is off and charging.
I am currently not pulling the battery. I do run my battery dead and I mean right up to the phone turns off showing a blinking red box. I turn the phone on again, oddly enough it has enought power to boot up again, wait for at least the media scanning to almost complete, then plug in the AC. I charge it up to 100% if I am around and paying attention. I unplug it from the AC charger. I ask the phone to power down. I wait till I am certain it has powered down, usually 2 minutes. Then I plug in the AC and let it charge up to 100% again.
I have the additional problem that my battery is draining to fast and not lasting as long as I think it should and posted in another topic about this. This problem seems random to me, but could be related to the fact I am not really getting that 100% charge I thought I got.
I also believe my phone is not trickle charging after it hits that 100%. Maybe this was to extend batter life in years, but maybe it should monitor the battery and if it goes down 5 or 10% charge it back up to 100% instead of letting it drain. I have a habit of leaving my phone charge overnight, because I expect to get up the next day and use it for at least 8+ hours...
I have completed several factory resets at this time trying to narrow down if I have a bad app or bad update. So far this last test shows that even after factory reset, not visiting the market or installing any apps, the problem still exists for me. I have noticed a small issue with my factory reset that leads me to believe I might not be getting a full wipe as I would expect.

Try to reboot the iPhone, if that doesn't help make a backup via iTunes, and restore the iPhone via iTunes.
Otherwise disable background refresh, and kill all apps

iPhone 5 getting really hot and battery charge not lasting very long at all??

Try some of these to save battery time:
Settings>Notifications>[Turn off any notifications you don't need]
Settings>General>Software Update (Make sure you're up to date)
Settings>Brightness & Wallpaper> Auto-Brightness on (And that your brightness is not to the max)
Settings>Privacy>Location Services>Turn off/Stop apps from using it
Settings>Bluetooth>Off
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Fetch New Data>Manually
Settings>Wi-Fi> Off (When you don't need internet when you're out and about)
To stop overheating, note these:
Operating Temperatures: 0° to 35° C (32° to 95° F)
Non-Operating Temperatures: -20° to 45° C (-4° to 113° F)
Hope this helps!

Presario C700 Battery Charged/Not working

I used the HP test utility on my battery: Working and charging 100%. When I unplug the AC adapter the laptop shuts down. I tried to restart without the AC Adapter, but nothing. Nada. No power, even though the test says OK @!#!@#$#@$!@
Any suggestions please. Could this be a battery Jack problem INSIDE the laptop?

Battery Charge not Lasting

I recharge my battery as per the instructions, and then when it is unplugged from my computer, the yellow warning sign flashes "connect to Power" this also can happen even when my Ipod is switched off. Does any one have the same problem, I have thought it maybe a manufacturing problem and I need to return the I Pod?

Hey Claire,
Are you charging the iPod from a PC or from some other accessory, like a sound dock?
Make sure the iPod is directly connected to a powered USB port and not plugged into a keyboard, monitor, or hub.

Fonts Not Embedding Consistently with PDF Export - Inconsistent Fix and Unknown Cause

I have had ongoing problems with PDF export from FrameMaker. Sometimes the correct fonts do not embed in the PDF and Times New Roman is substituted. The problem appears and disappears and is causing me a lot of lost time and frustration.
I am running FrameMaker 9.0 fully patched on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. I have seen people complain about this issue and am familiar with the suggested fixes. However, the exact cause and solution eludes me because the problem continues to recur and I am only able to recover with guesswork and workarounds.
Initially I did the following:
ACROBAT PDF SETTINGS
- In the printer properties for Adobe PDF settings I turned off the option "Rely on system fonts only; do not use documents fonts."
ACROBAT DISTILLER SETTING
Under "Font" Settings I changed the following:
- Under "Settings/Font Locations" I added the font folder for Technical Communication Suite 2.0 and made sure all the fonts existed there and in the Windows default font directory.
- Under "Settings/Edit Adobe PDF Setting/Fonts" I changed the following options:
- Selected "Embed all fonts"
- Under "Embedding" chose "Always Embed" for the target fonts.
I tweaked these settings for hours and got no results. Then I rebooted and the problem had magically disappeared. I fixed the issue in the same way on another machine and the results were permanent and I was just happy to finally have it fixed, But this time it didn't last.
I should note that upon reboot, when I used the stock "PDF Job Options," the correct fonts still embedded, leading me to believe that the fix had nothing to do with the changes I made to Distiller settings.
After reboot I generated PDFs with the correct fonts embedded. Then I shut down FM, but left the system running. The next morning I opened FM again and the same problem occurred.
So I rebooted again -- and the problem disappeared again. I therefore thought maybe the issue fixes on reboot but recurs when you shut down FM and reopen. So I shut down FM again and reopened, but it is still working fine for the moment.
I verified that the Adobe PDF settings under "Printers & Devices" that I turned off (Rely on system fonts only; do not use documents fonts) remained correctly unchecked through all these changes.
I would really like to know why this happens so I can resolve it permanently and avoid more lost time.
Thanks in advance,
Douglas

The common theme I'm seeing here is that the setting edits you make in
Distiller through the FM "Save As PDF" option don't seem to take effect.
Do you know if that is true or could you elaborate on the notorious nature
of this method for me?
>
There are too many potential and transient problems to list. The only thing
I can say is that I've been an active member of the FrameUsers listserv
(http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/listinfo/framers) since FM version 6.0,
circa 2001, and probably 95% of the PDF problems reported there have been
fixed simply by using print to Adobe PDF (or to Acrobat Distiller in older
PDF versions), instead of using Save as PDF. Common advice there has always
been to avoid Save as PDF and even some Adobe employees have recommended
against using it. It doesn't matter which FM version.
The once-busy FrameUsers listserve has been fading away, recently, as this
new Adobe forum software allows reading via e-mail, and attachment of
screenshots. Even if you look around on this forum now, you'll probably
find that there are two main fixes for issues with PDF. One is NOT using
Save as PDF, which seems to fix a whole bunch of issues. The other is the
use of a Windows hotfix to squash a Windows OS bug that causes dropped
characters in PDFs.
In the rare instances that someone has issues with printing to PDF, they are
almost always related to errors in settings. Or occasionally someone can't
embed fonts because they are trying to the embed the virtual fonts that come
with their printer driver instead of fonts that have actually been installed
on their computer. (The fonts are hard-wired on their printer, so the system
can use them but not embed them.)

Battery Charge not Held??

Hi i am the owner of a silver ipod mini that i have used only a few times. I bought it about a year ago and have had some trouble with the batteruy with it. I will charge it in the wall or through the port on the side oof my power book G4 and when it says that it it charged i will take eject it and disconnect it. after oding so i try to listen to music but within a minute the message that "you battery is low please charge now" comes up and it will turn off. Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions of what to do to help this.
thanks alot
Hunter

Apple states that after about 14 to 28 days of non use, the iPod battery may be fully discharged. You left it for 9 days and lost half the charge (bear in mind that the battery indicator is only an approximate guide).
Seems about normal to me. See this.

Battery charge not recognized

My ipod's battery will be fully charged and then 40 minutes later it will shut off and when I try to turn it back on it says low battery.
Sometimes if I wait a while, I can turn the ipod back on and the battery will show a full charge and work just fine for another hour or so.
I've reset, updated and restored.
I think the battery is holding the charge because when I plug in the ipod to recharge, it only takes a few minutes to get to full power... It seems like the ipod just doesn't know that it has battery power.
Is anyone else having this problem?
iPod mini Windows XP
iPod mini Windows XP

yes, i do have the same problem. With different time intervals though.
I think our batteries are broken. The only solution would be a battery replacement, which is free if you bought your iPod less than a year ago.

Java 7 Update 25 does not work consistently with FF 23.0.1 running in Mac OS 10.8.4. All plug-ins are up to date. Why?

2013 iMac running Mac OS 10.8.4 & FF 23.0.1. When I attempt to access a site (usually a city government site) that requires Java, the applet runs, but the content fails to appear. Sometimes if I play with the various plugins, close FF and restart it, I can get the content to appear. But that tactic does not always work. Besides, it is annoying to have to shut down the program and then go back to the search results I was using to see IF it will work.

Tungsten E2 battery charge not retaining.

My Tungsten E2 is about 2 years old. After charging the Palm battery life symbol indicates full charge. However within 10 minutes a low battery message is indicated and the battery symbol shows empty charge. Pse advise. Thanks in advance.Suresh
Post relates to: Tungsten E2

If you have been a moderate to heavy user for two years, the battery is probably nearing the end of its useful life as LiOn batteries have a finite number of charge cycles.
Replacement batteries can be had from pdaparts.com and usedpdaparts.com. The first site has takeapart directions to do this yourself and the E2 battery plugs in (rather than soldering on other models).

Battery charge not 100%

I am using z10 past one month. few days back I got notification about software update 10.2.1.2941(92 mb) updated the same ,my problem is like when I charge the battery it becomes 100% after that battery showed 82% and my phone goes switch off every time ,if I repeat the charging process it's started from 82% .should I wipe the phone????
Subject Title edited to reflect new topic.

Remove the battery for 90 minutes. that will reset the battery meter. You may need to try it a couple of times. If that still doesn't work then replace the battery.

Batch Derivation not happening consistently

Dear Experts,
Pls guide me to identify and resolve the following problem:
I have configured the batch derivation and maintained the necessary condition records.
The derivation event is defined as the GR for Production order.
The problem is, for certain orders the derivation is not working and giving the error as (in T Code DVMO):
- Warning Rule "No empty sender fields" broken for attribute XXXX.
inspite of the fact that field (XXXX) in the RM batch being already filled, still data is not getting transferred to the produced batch.
However, the derivation is working for other production orders (around 60%).
Where I could have missed the point.
Kindly help me out.
Thanks & Regards,
Rohit Chauhan.
Added: Can there be any thing at material master level which can cause this problem, because the material is either deriving the data or failing. Both cases are not existing for any single material.
Edited by: Rohit Chauhan on Sep 9, 2009 10:05 AM

Did you build your batch where used list up? Is it being update in real-time or or a regular basis via a batch job?
Look at the dates and times of the orders that fail. You may find they are older ones, or newer ones depending on when you built the batch where used list and how or when it is being updated.
The other possibility is that the orders that are failing are not being properly processed. Look at the batch where used list and see if you can trace the order information back to the batch that the results should be coming from. If you can't see the batch in the history of the order on the batch where used list then the system can't derive the results.
There is also setting in teh derivation record as to how many generations to go back I believe. You may need to go further back in some cases then what you might have it set at.

Hello Krisrrll,
You stated that the only time the computer will notice the AC adapter is when you plug in it prior to turning the computer on, is that accurate? I will do what I can to help you resolve this issue.
You have already mentioned flashing the bios, if you can confirm what is your current version that you have installed?
