I have this problem: I have created an application for monitoring the phone battery values. On my samsung, I can get battery current in mA with BatteryManager and property BATTERY_PROPERTY_CURRENT_NOW, but on other android devices with same OS version (7.0) I am not able to reach right number, there is some insane value.

Other application AccuBattery on the same device showing the right values, so where is the problem?

Is there another way how to get battery current or power consumption?

Thanks.
