Re: Getting really pissed about battery life

have you guys tried a battery reset yet?

There is a rumor that there's a bug in WM that causes it to measure the half-full battery charge on a new phone as full(You know how when you buy a new phone, how the battery is only half full), and it will only charge to that level from then on no matter how much you calibrate it. I dunno how truthful this rumor is, but I have noticed a HUGE difference after doing this.

1. Let the phone go completely dead, until you can't even boot it up.

2. Charge for about 5 minutes, just long enough to get enough of a charge to boot up & hard reset(obviously, back up your data before you do this step).

3. Let the phone do it's configurations & reset, then plug it back in & let it charge OVERNIGHT.

And S2U2 is a major battery hog. I won't use it.
