Either way it does not improve the battery life.... I am using the Seido Extended and it is no better than the stock battery. I may have a defective phone.... I dont know what else could be causing the issue.....
Before you guys say it... I have done all of the steps necessary to improve the battery life (Closed programs, 1XEV, Home Only, no wifi or bluetooth etc.)
I have changed the swipe sensitivity setting to the lowest and I've noticed a big improvement in the battery life and no difference in the swipe.

It is actually different. Just barely noticeable
I dont see why that would save battery life though... Maybe less readings to take on the screen. I will have to try it. I am looking to see if I can get a full 24 hours of battery from my phone WITH NORMAL USE
Well, my battery would be dead by now, and I played a lot with it today, more then usual. Can somebody else try this tomorrow and see if it lasts longer?
I now have a line and a half in the battery icon.

I will give it a try and see if it helps, but I doubt it will... I have my network selection set to home only, so it shouldn't even look for a SIM card.
I agree the battery life is poor on the storm but I was thinking does this new touch screen use a lot of power? It does not bother me as much I am always near a charger.

Don't bother. Set your Network to 1XEV and it's the same as taking out the SIM.
I already have the setting since day 1. Im just wondering why im unable to take out my SIM, should i get a new phone? This thing is seriously not budging...
