I charge my battery until it says 100%, i take it off and a few minutes later im already down a couple percentages, usually doing nothing. What do you recommend? im looking to double my battery life. Right now, im getting 3 hours, usually just browsing the net and its not for very long, just to check facebook and what not, then i exit. Its pretty bad when it doesnt even get me through work.

Check out www.seidioonline.com and try to get at least a 2000mah battery. Only thing is, an extended battery will be thicker and will require a different battery door. The battery should come with a replacement door but also keep in mind the bigger the battery the bigger and heavier your device will be.

Well, I have a 2000 on my vogue and it is only about 6-8mm thicker and my original was an 1100mah.

The ROM you are running makes a world of difference too. For example I cooked up a custom 6.5 that gets superb battery life with only a couple tweaks.

i listened to someones advice, used diamond tweak and put it all on advised settings. made it through work and still had about 2 percent left.

im using intxROM Premier.
