I used the phone when I got it, let it charge overnight, and in the morning of course it was 100%. I used it periodically through the morning and after 3 hours I started getting really concerned that it didn't budge from 100%, not even 99%. I thought something was broken like it wasn't communicating with the battery. The battery info screen said it was collecting information, please wait, for estimated time remaining. So I called verizon and first person said well the G2 has a great battery so there's nothing wrong with what I'm seeing. I then spoke to tech support and he didn't know what to think about it, and I was ready to return it thinking my phone will always tell me 100% until the battery dies. After about a half hour on phone with verizon figuring out what to do, and countless phone reboots, it dropped to 99%. I still wasn't satisfied thinking how could it go for so long using only 1%... so the verizon tech called LG support. LG support said well there's nothing abnormal about that, our phone has a super great battery in it. I then asked, well maybe the battery controller logic has a bug or it's confused or hung up somehow so how do I do a full cold reset, equivalent to battery pull? LG said you cannot do that with this phone. So I really hope if the phone freezes one day, holding power for 8 seconds or whatever it is will respond. It seems like software has to be running to handle that form of reset since it pops up a confirmation message. Anyway, my phone eventually started dropping % at a rate that I considered to be more consistent with use, and I let it go down to about 12% before charging it up some (it went about 30 hours).
So we'll see what happens with my phone tomorrow but I'm wondering if anyone else finds that it doesn't drop from 100 for a long time.
