Battery LIfe

[PvilleComp]

I wish - my 3500 doesn't last more than 12 hours...so to be on the safe side, I charge it while at work.

I've done everything - ATK every 30 mins, I don't even do that much browsing. I never charge my phone while off b/c then the alarm won't ring. And I don't like turnign it off. The 3500 sucks ***.

If you are only getting 12 hrs on a 3500, something is chewing up your battery. What's showing in the Battery usage? Only time I use up the 3500 in a day is under very heavy usage.

I don't use a task killer.

Today was a pretty normal day, about 90 e-mails, 15-20 Phone calls most with BT speaker, GPS Nav, GPS Sensorly, Some W-Fi, Lots of surfing on Wi-Fi and 3G. and I'm still at 60%

Also in addition to my battery lasting me all though the day just as a precaution I carry the primo cube (a remote power source) and can charge my phone anywhere ,anytime . I did not want the extra bulk an extended battery adds to the phone size.I wanted to keep the incredible slim and trim, not fat lol

How well does the primo cube charge your phone? I have looked into those to keep it available when I'm going to be away from a charger or left it at home and am using my phone really heavy. But still kind of iffy on ordering one or not.

i always had ok life with stock battery starting the day around 6am and going until around 8 or 9 pm with moderate use but after a bad speaker and getting a replacement phone i am now dead at 1 or 2 pm with the same use. nothing changed on the phone, same apps and settings. i used my backup pro to restore the new device to the same as the old one. does anyone have any sugestions please. the device did act funny durning the restore process so i have thought about a factory reset but hate to loose all my e mail settings, for backup pro did not save them.

Have you tried "bump charging" your phone a couple of times.

i did charge it to green then turned it off and charged it to green again. it took about 30 mins for this to happen. should i do more than this? i also thought about getting another stock battery in hopes that mine is worn out but its not to old.

Get the Seidio and keep your current battery as backup. Lasts about 20% longer than stock.

Use a 1amp charger (like the one it ships with) or the "top off" charge will take too long. A lot of people say a BB charger is fine, but I think I get better results (totally subjective and unmeasured) since I switched from the Storm charger to the one that came with the Dinc.

The Seidio 1750 on my phone last 200% longer than the stock 1300. I would get 6-10 hours on my 1300 stock and 16-20 hours on my 1750. Obviously this also depend on how heavy of a user you are. Now that I've gotten used to the phone and a lot of the novelty has worn off I consider myself a moderate user with battery hog apps, but heavy on phone and email.

Its been working perfect(just like charging with a wall charger) and I used it quite a bit since I got on either phone it works good. It will charge the incredible with a stock battery in about an hour maybe a little more thats with about 20% of battery ,but it will be just back to 100% no more for sure. So far the cube maintains it charge everytime I checked to see if its loss any it hasn't.I'm outside alot and there is no way I can charge it without it if my phone required charging.An alternative to an extended battery for me .


I have been carefull folding out the connectors (that would be where it would break easiest I think)

It holds it charge good so far when I charge it and dont use it for a few days it still has all of its charge still maintained .I have use it with the phone on or off .

It would be cool if it was able to charge more then once but it serves it purpose,so far it works good for me still.Thats my only issue is I wish it would be abe to charge it twice lol, but its still kinda a new product so room for improve features I guess
