3500 mah battery question

[hollj00#AC]

I started using a 3500 mah battery, i put battery monitor on the phone to see battery life, the phone is saying charge your batter it's at 15%. however battery monitor is at 49%. so when the phone hits 0% will it shut off or will it keep going? i'm sure the phone only reads 1500 mah batteries, but will it condition to 3500 mah? thanks

Give it a full 8 hour charge. Drain it down as low as possible. Give it another 8 hours to charge. After about the third drain/charge cycle you will notice it tends to last a whole lot longer. As for the battery monitor, I'm not too sure. I started using the 3500 MAH about 3 or 4 weeks ago. I get close to 38 hours on it with a very decent amount of usage... so at that point you don't really need a monitor.

Actually the drain charge method is not recommended for a Li-ion battery. It weakens the cells. Keep in mind to let phone charge 2-3 hours beyond "green light". I love my 3500mah, I have great success with this method.

I use battery details for my app and it seems to pretty much match the EVO's built in battery meter.
I've had the 3500 at least three months.
