Battery charges not above 66%

Post by Sesto2k »

Hello,

I do have actualy a technical problem. I bought the Odroid Go Super on 4th of July 2023.
The first time I charged the battery fully as described in the instructions (with a Samsung power supply, which is said to be compatible).

Now, after the third cycle, the battery no longer charges above 66%. I charged the device from yesterday evening until this morning and the battery does not charge any further.

What can I do now here ?

Thanks for your help !

Hi,

The battery is likely charged to 100%, it's just the gauge that shows nonsense for whatever reason.
The reason could be that you have never allowed your console to discharge completely, so it doesn't know how big the battery is.

Try leaving the console on for a night so it discharges completely, and then charge it again.

As mctcom mentioned, you need to fully charge and completely discharge the battery a couple of times to make more accurate battery energy gauge coefficients.
