Help Battery Indicator

[Dale Lature]

Battery indicator seemed to work fine for about 3 weeks upon receiving it, then started shutting off at around 15% (previously had been able to let it go down to 5 ...didnt try any lower), then started shutting off in past 3 days between 15 and 20. After yesterday's shut off around 20-25, I recharged it to "Charged", unplugged, and it has been showing 100% ever since, even though I have had it on for 17 hours. Rebooted. Still shows 100%. Turned off. Still shows 100 when I turn it back on. Turning it off seems to have reset my Time on Battery as well.

Wish I had something else for you, but I would factory reset.

Allow the phone's battery to completely discharge and then charge it full. Do that 3 times. It should "fix" the issue.

That's the old Eclair/Froyo power calibration advice - and there's an update on that -

So, full power off will do the same thing.

What the OP is describing is almost certainly a stuck bit in silicon - something that you could fix in the old days by a one minute battery pull.

With fixed batteries, manufacturers have provided an equivalent power/silicon reset by button manipulations.

I don't have this phone and will bow to anyone who does, but I found a OnePlus statement on their site that indicated to me that you'd get that by cycling power, specifically by holding down power for 20 seconds, 5 times.
