Battery Estimator on ALL devices
Errant33:
Well i found a page with patch info to fix battery's estimated time directly based off battery bench marks and i also found where in the source code battery information is stored.
Compiling it with corrected values to see how accurate it is if its still off i will look into it further
Errant33:
*Deleted* no longer useful
Errant33:
Not only what i listed above give a accurate reading of time left it would also scale with the battery as it ages because its based on dynamic numbers not static.
Rincewind:
Errant33: You are looking at the simulator code. This has nothing to do with actual runtime calculation. The real thing is much more complicated and dynamic, based on (assumed) power consumption.
You can see in my patch (which was linked in this thread, above) where the calculation on real targets happens.
