Reading battery health statistics (actual capacity, cycle count) through ADB Posted: 09 May 2020 09:10 AM PDT I haven't seen that mentioned around here but you can actually get a reading on various battery stats through ADB. $ adb shell coral:/ $ cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/cycle_count 113 coral:/ $ cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charge_full 3664000 So my Pixel 4 XL still has 3664 mAh after 6 months of use and 113 cycles. It seems the reading comes from the Maxim fuel gauge chip. Some other devices might have a different sysfs path, like /sys/class/power_supply/bms. submitted by /u/legsim [link] [comments]
