Randomly powering off under low battery. Battery calibration issue?

[Ben]

Thanks Ohkis.

I can also confirmed that I am running on 1600mhz ram and it has not auto-shutdown on me. All seems fine with the new bios.

Can’t be happier!

I have upgraded to new bios 1600mhz and i have no shutdown at 5% battery.

Issue fixed by chuwi.

Yes, it seems to be working, I’m at 36% using 100% brightness and a 1TB drive with the keyboard attached and no powering off (Yet). The bios version looks the same to me. But it must be difference even if the date is the same.

Okay doesn’t work for me. Looked like it did but, 100% brightness booted up clash of clans with 100% volume and it powered off. 🙁

It’s now doing it every time. Not a thing has been fixed for me and it was the new bios or am I missing something? @jaja @kyro What exact bios did you guys flash?

Look at the first page of BIOS, what version of BIOS you have now?
As shown in my screenshots, old BIOS was E4D6_HI-122LP.221 from 22. 3. 2016 (I have tablet only 2 days) and new after flash is E4D6_HI-122LP.223 from 28. 4. 2016.
The name of the new BIOS archive is Lateset Dualboot Hi12 BIOS（remain KEY, solve wifi disconnet issue).rar

READ THIS: Make very SURE you have the correct BIOS for your device. Flashing the wrong BIOS WILL BRICK your device and make it unbootable.
CHECK AGAIN

1. Get an empty USB thumb drive.
2. Format USB drive FAT32, name it WINPE
3. Extract all files and then Copy all the files from the BIOS .rar onto the USB drive. Your USB drive should look like the picture below all files at the root directory.

If your BIOS is already set to boot USB thumb drive as 1st prioroty, then the deivce will go directly to step 5 automatically
4. Boot into BIOS boot manager using F7 key
5. Select and Boot the USB thumb drive
6. New BIOS will be flashed
7. Remove the USB drive once BIOS flash is complete. If you leave it in, then BIOS will be flashed again on boot.

nice. Congrats! Apologies just saw this

[will]

Can this be done without the keyboard? I can’t press f7

[jaja]

No it wants external usb keyboard

[Chris G]

Working just fine now. I drained it right down to 2%, No cutting out on me. For once Chuwi fixed an issue. Now all I need is the HiBook USB ports fixed with another bios update.

Good to know!!

Is ram working ar 1600 or 1067 now?

Thanks

[Chris G]

The bios default is still set to 1066Mhz, but it’s working fine at 1600Mhz with a nice 10% boost to performance over 1066Mhz.

That’s terrific!  It gives me hope for an update to fix the HiBook USB ports.  Someone else in the Chuwi forum has complained about USB 2.0 speeds too.  Not having any history with Chuwi, right now it seems they’re a good company.  They’re active in social media (responding to posts, etc) and forums.  They release firmware updates to fix problems.  They already fixed a wifi problem on the HiBook, and this with the Hi12.

Just flashed my bios with the one ,everything went fine. We will see what happens…
