Hello,
On an HP Sleekbook 15b142 laptop about 4 years old, the battery has been replaced 3 times, the last replaced 3 months ago and on this date the autonomy was more than 2 hours and 100% charged.
Today, charger plugged in, this battery stops charging at between 80 and 85% and with charger disconnected, the pc cuts suddenly without notifications while there remains 60/65% autonomy observed when the system restarts.
So, I have about 15 min of autonomy and it decreases day by day.
Calibration/calibration performed without effect.
I booted into Live usb linux with the same symptoms.
Recently, I tested this battery with the HP Diagnostic UEFI utility (I attach the results), but I find that the identification is incorrect in date and battery age and does not correspond to the installed battery, namely 18oct2021
09/27/2020 is from the previous battery installation date.
How to update data on UEFI Diagnostic app?

Hello,
I updated HP Diagnostics UEFI to v8.4 and the date and info is still that of the old battery. Can I uninstall and reinstall the app or do I have to delete the data additionally?
"content removed" I dont know why ?

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:
- Could you please share the picture of the incorrect date and age?
- Does the notebook shut down immediately (right after you unplug the charger)?
- Do you get any error messages on your notebook (Such as Plugged in, not charging, etc.)?
While you respond to that, let's try these steps:
Hard Reset: Follow steps from the link: https://hp.care/2GnkMa8. (Refer to the removable and sealed battery)
BIOS default:(do not skip any troubleshooting steps even if you feel steps are repeating)
- Turn off the computer and wait five seconds.
- Press the Power button to start the computer and repeatedly press the F10 key to enter the BIOS setup menu.
- On the BIOS Setup screen, press F9 to select and load the BIOS Setup Default settings.
- Press F10 to Save and Exit.
- Use the arrow keys to select Yes, then press Enter when asked Exit Saving Changes?
- Follow the prompts to restart your computer.
You can download the latest (UEFI) Version from here: HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI 7.6.0.0 ( SP102406)
Refer to the YouTube video: Troubleshooting Battery Issues for HP Notebooks
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
