My new conspiracy theory is that a gang of people have teamed up to try to wind me up on this particular topic in what was supposed to be a lighthearted nonsense-question to which I gave an appropriate nonsense-answer.

You’re the only one who actually did arrive at something which is pretty much the actual answer (“coulomb counting”), although you keep mucking it up by saying things like you “can get a voltage sensor” to get the energy left in the battery, or “current through the battery” when the battery is the only part current does not flow through during discharge, or by making up wild random guesses that something is “almost certainly” taken into account. Just take all that extra stuff away and stick with “the phone monitors discharge” and you’ll be pretty much right.

Hopefully we can put this whole endeavor behind us now, and go back to talking about Chipotle and chemtrails.

It's very clear from this exchange that you don't know dick about electronics.
