I don't have a script?, i use various external chargers to determinate battery capacity.

Auto calibrate wasn't created by dr_frost_dk, AFAIK, it's from joerg_rw. Instead of using charge*.sh, you could also do the same with kernel-power and Pali's bq2415 module (charging one).

Hoever, no matter of method, I don't see how *charging* with script/module as opposed to BME could help You with vdq going to 0 during *discharging*.

Hello.

I don't know if this is common knowledge or not. But I have a Nokia BL-5J that came with my X1-00 I bought new from a store in NZ and it came with a 1430mAh Genuine Nokia BL-5J...

Anyway, I went to buy some Japods at our favourite site and they are "temporarily" sold out! :eek:

Its true, it not drfrost the script (my memory its bad sometimes). I will try some script and check if it solves my problem. Without dual-scud before calibration was ok, now its not because sensor chip thinks that my battery has lower capacity and gives me VDQ=0 when it thinks that is discharged.
If someone has an idea I will try it :)

Yes the new genuine BL-5J (Nokia) should have over 1400mAh as is printed on them, i would love to test one so i can add it to post #1, but can't really find one anywhere....

In other news im testing polarcell's new battery's and im seeing over 1500mAh!!!, in fact 1520mAh so it seems we might just have a new goto battery, that is not HARD to come by like the elusive SCUD's, they are becoming a hassle to find or just to find a supplier that stocks more then 20x, but Polarcell makes their battery's and this means that supply here should meet demand, also price wise they are cheaper then SCUD's, of course you don't get that Awesome pretty box....

I would let you have mine but I'm using it currently. It's got a number of cycles on it as well.

Not sure if I get this right but I had similar issue with my DualSCUDs. When fully charged VDQ was going to 0 before battery was drained. Somebody on this forum explained how to resolve it (Sorry I don't remember his name but he takes all the credit for it).

Now, because it's over twice the capacity of normal battery you need to calibrate your battery in phases. So charge your DualSCUDs until VDQ=1 and then no longer than an hour. Keep discharging until EDV1=1. I had to stop BME because it was turning the phone off around 3.5V.

Hey guys I found a potential source for Scud Blue Dreams here: http://www.camaras-espias.net/en/Nok...m-p184893.html
Does it look like the right thing? Seems so. Looking to get one of these.

Well can't see anywhere if it is the 1350mAh or 1450mAh?

D'oooh Right, I send them a message asking about whether it was the 1350 or 1450 version, they replied
"Hi thank you for your interests in our products
as it states in the description
Battery Capacity: 1001-1600MAh"

Oh well no help there.
