Help how to see actual battery capacity

[flyjbaker]

Did you read my EDIT part of my original post? That should work.

Yes I did and that is how I did it.

Sadly I dont think the Diagnostic mode battery percentage is that accurate either. At least not when the battery is over a 50% state of capacity. Out of curiosity I have been charging my battery in this mode (Not expecting any calls) and it went from 3 to 50% in no time (Probably in less than 30 minutes) somethings just not adding up here. I will continue to charge the phone using this method and see if I get any better results.

Thats how every phone i ever had was like. I could put it on the charger for ten minutes, take it off and it would read 3 bars (from 1). Use it for a half hour and it would go back down to the one. Its best just to leave it on there till its fully charged.

The immediate jump in voltage when a battery is put on charge is quite normal for most types of batteries.

As mywhip mentioned...after you pull it off the charger monitor the voltage for a while and it should drop back down to where it really is.
