My Hi12 has now a 6.505er battery? Before it had 11.000!

[Mash]

Hi there.

In both android and windows the battery capacity is exactly 6.505 and the runtime of the tablet acts like it. I get only about 4hrs of usage.

However, im more than sure that the battery was at 10.xxx before and i also enjoyed equivalently high usage time.

All i did was rooting the tablet according to the thread here, so what is going on with my tablet´s battery?

 

And especially, what to do to revert it back to good ol days?

Try a battery cycle, full discharge and then powered off recharge it overnight. Don’t power it on until it has finished charging. Constant orange led on (Not blinking)

I did this and my reported battery on my second Hi12 went fron 9,800 mAh (according to HWInfo and battery bar) to 11,800 mAh. I can easily get 1 hour for only 10% drain in Windows. And in Android about 7% drain per hour.

I think don’t worry about the 6500 in Android, it’s only reporting what Android says and probably read from text file. The true test is it’s drawing around 1000 ma to power screen and CPU and can run around 10 hours = 10,000 mah. Battery bar in Windows gives a better indication, mine shows 9,800 but I usually don’t deep cycle, I charge at 20%.
