Default Battery Life in .258 7.1 is plain AMAZING

Try it for yourself. I've tried every OS and the latest one is ridiculous.
Enjoy!

i would hate to rain on your parade, but you cant really say how amazing battery life is without using the OS for more than a few days...... never the less 12 hours.

Still crappy for me. 5 hours with 45 min of calls and 2 hours of apps. Not good enough.

Anyone looking to upgrade their battery should get one of the gold batteries off Ebay. It increased my capacity to 2430 mah.

can you prove it ?

I found a lot of high capacity battery that say like 1800 mah or 2600 but if you remove the sticker it's actually a 1000mah. Don't just trust the sticker.

You must not make very many changes to your phone. Or have a high tolerance for consistently needing to recode the battery after resets.

its very hard to read posts that run with no punctuation it makes me read it like a robot danger wil rogers danger but if thats the norm i guess ill just need to live with it and keep my opinionated comments to myself sorry for the crack back i just had to say it.

I ugraded last night, so far so good. Can't comment on battery life. Too early. I've never gotten very good battery life on any berry I've owned, though. I'm pretty curious about the hotspot and at&t charges. The OS seems more responsive than....585 (I think thats what I had)

There is no way that I can prove it to you. You will just have to take my word for it. Instead of having to charge it at night I can charge it mid day the next day with a full day of business use. 2 days later if It is on standby.

Kraski, The battery came with a microchip that duped the factory battery without a computer. I have reset the phone and the battery doesn't need to be recalibrated. There are a lot of s*** batteries out there, but the gold one is legit. The sellers name is e_cell.

OK. That means that, once again, I've learned something new and useful. And thanks for the seller's name. Something to do when other things aren't depleting my wallet.

There is actually one way, remove the golden sticker arround the battery, and tell us what's under it, that's how we found out when it's a fake one, it's just a sticker over a lower mah sticker, but sometime they do remove the old sticker before putting a new one, don't remove all of it if you don't see anything behind it.

Maybe he's legit, I wish he is, because that would be nice.

I've almost reached my limit with the 9810. The battery is enough to make me switch to a 9900.
