Ok so after flashing to dGB I was getting some minor disparity between the wake up screen and the status bar battery icons. Quite often (even after a full nights charge) the wake up screen would report the battery as being 82% full while the status bar would say 99%. There would often be a difference of 10-15% between the two figures. Sometimes after switching off and on they'd report the same % but letting it go to sleep and waking it up could produce different result every time.
So I did the "reset battery stats" trick as mentioned here in several places.... and now it is much much worse.
After a full nights charge with the phone switched off they both report 100% charge but this can drop maybe 1% every minute. If I let the battery drain for a bit then put the phone to sleep and wake it up again the wake screen can report 70% while the status bar can report 40%.
Play with a few apps to use up some battery and suddenly the phone switches off with a very brief (2 seconds) warning to plug in a charger. Plug in the charger then take it out after a minute or two and the wake screen reports "connect your charger" while the status bar says 1% or there abouts depending on the charge time.
Isn't it supposed to switch off long before reaching 0% ???
Another anomaly is that with the battery being reported as say at 80%, I plug in the charger and the animated charging icon won't come up and the LED will go straight to green.
I'm running Watchdog and it isn't reporting anything out of the ordinary... in fact far from it, when I run it in real time it reports itself as being the greatest cpu hog at 3-4%
The system reports the biggest battery hog as the screen.
The battery was working fine before flashing - full charge would last all day and still have heaps left when I plugged it in a bed time.

Yes sorry, it's just my own made up name for the lock screen.
