Exactly. Your supposed to let it die to 0% a couple times then charge all the way to 100%. That's what I've been doing and its improving everyday. I'm at 29% and I'm rolling on 1 day 11 hours... I'm at a party right now and using my phone for music oddly enough haha =P weird place to be posting on a forum but whatever!

Caveat emptor: I am not seeing much improvement in battery life with this monster compared to stock.

I'm down to 78% after 4.5hours with 66% display.

Definitely some improvement compared to stock, but when this battery is supposed to be >2x the stocker, I'm not seeing even 50% more life.

Time will tell, maybe a few more full discharges/charges and it'll shape up.

To update:

~30 hours since charge, sitting at 24%. My drainage slowed down considerably.

Just went on sale for 8.99

Yes, I just purchased it as soon as I noticed the price drop. Plus shipping I only paid 11.97 for this, they weren't offering the overnight shipping for whatever reason. It said 3-5 days, so at least it's not that long of a wait. Can't wait to get it in and put it to the hardcore test!

Picked up another one on Amazon. At that price, you can't go wrong if you don't mind the extra size.

Oddly, I'm at 50% 13h in, with only 30 minutes of display time. 9-10h of that was overnight on idle. Yesterday I was at 25% 30h in.

I tell you, this battery is screwy.

So weird.

Yesterday I was @25% ~30 hours after charge.

Today, I'm @25% ~17.5 hours after charge. And I've used the phone LESS than yesterday (less display time, etc).

Maybe you have a bad battery?

What's confusing me is the day to day variation.

Day 1: went down to 25% charge after 30 hours
Day 2: went down to 14% charge after 19 hours

The difference between days 1 and 2? Nothing. I even used it less on day 2.

I guess we'll have to see what today (day 3) has in store.

Interesting. Keep doing the 0% discharge and back to 100% a couple times. I did that for about 4 days straight.
