Thanks. My X98 Pro gives me about 4 hours so will see how much this will help!

Thanks! I pasted wrong the command.

Now is correct.

Teclast really needs to fix the battery monitoring firmware.  With the cable disconnected my tablet reports that it’s plugged-in all the time, and it has been running for more than 1 hour with the battery indicator at 0%…

I have been studying another bug of the battery control firmware today. After you connect a device to the microUSB port, the tablet switches the port to OTG mode, which is OK. But then it remains on that mode and the tablet does not charge when using the included charger and most other chargers.

It seems that “smart” chargers detect that the port is in that state and do not give power to it. You need a “dumb” powerful charger that gives power to the USB port without checking the state, then it switches to normal state and you can use any charger. For me it works with the charger that came with my OnePlus One and a external battery.  Both rated at 5V 2.1A.

For me it is not possible to get under 2%….even with Administrator rights…. 🙁

Has anyone else tried this fix? Really adds ~2 hours? Is battery charged without problems?

[Coldreboot]

Yes, but  you’ll work with empty battery on windows indicator. 1.5-2h. If you control the battery voltage on Aida64, it will be better.

 

PS: you should decrease Reserved battery level to 0%

Where is the reserved battery level setting?
