Anyhow, I walked downtown with a 40% charged epic. Rebooted it to install something in cwm as I was walking, the phone went to 18% when it booted back up. Did what some here said taking the battery out for a few minutes, etc. phone booted up with 14% battery left.
Always record sprints conversation(assuming its legal in your state) and ask for call reference number lol...

The battery removal trick only seems to work when phone runs out of battery :/..but again there could be different causes.
