Hi there,
I have Samsung Galaxy S4 which received an update to KitKat 4.4.1 and now my Gsam Battery monitor does not show real live battery level, when I click on the icon, it takes some time then show battery level then stick there until I manually refresh the application, How do I get this application working? What other battery applications are working on KitKat?
Gsam Battery monitor not working after update
Hello There,
You can simply run a few commands from command prompt to get battery percentage on kitkat platform, just without any apps. Your apps may need to be updated. Once update is done, please restart the device once.
There are a few apps like “Battery Percent for KitKat” or battery level etc.
Gsam Battery monitor not working after update
That happened because you updated your Android platform to a much higher version. Samsung Galaxy S4 ships originally with Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean and can be upgraded to Android 5.0.1 Lollipop. If your device originally ships with a much older version of Android, older than Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean, it is probably one of the earliest releases.
If one of your apps started to function incorrectly after the update, you should update the app as well because the app is no longer compatible with the current platform. To fix the problem with your app, download the latest GSam Battery Monitor on the Google Play store and install it. This should fix the problem. The latest version at the moment is GSam Battery Monitor 3.35.
Improvements to this version include:
- Added Always On Display tracking in Android 8.1 (screen detail & graph).
- Enhanced Wi-Fi tracking in graph to show when actively connected (enhanced stats only).
- Fixed boot-loop bug in Cyanogen-based ROMs.
