Root battery problem ?

I'm currently on megatron and I had 75 % of battery life and when I rebooted it said I had 18 percent ?

Maybe just maybe, you may start having an issue with your battery. I too not to long ago started seeing these numbers as well. Except, if I let the screen off, after reboot, then the percentages would rise (yeah I said rise). Turns out my battery over heated at some point and swelled to 1 1/2 times it size. Needless to say, I fried the battery (somehow????). New battery and everything is fine.

That's interesting. I've been noticing lately if I charge my phone but not all the way to 100% after I unplug it the % goes up over an hour or so. For example, on my way home from work I use Waze and plug my phone in. When I get home it may be up to say 80%. I unplug it, next time I look at the phone 86% and the battery graph shows the increase gradually over an hour roughly. Battery life has been sucking more too. Sounds like I need a new battery soon also. :(

Yeah that is what mine was doing. See if you can tell if the battery had swelled. Before I noticed the battery, I noticed the back cover fit differently.
