Can you guys recommend a battery calibration app?

Currently im using ViperSaga, and yes we all know that our DS can live for a day or two depends on the usage.

Battery calibration by wiping battery stats is a myth. After 2-3 charge cycles, the indicated battery level will be as accurate as it ever will or can be.

AOSP developer Dianne Hackborn has made it clear that battery calibration is a myth. It only mean deleted the battery stats. And your device does that on each reboot.

Deleting stats is pointless indeed, but the battery calibration procedure that involves a discharge/recharge cycle, not only deletion of the stats file helps to have proper % indication that cannot happen on a Stock ROM which is the case the Google engineer is talking about. But when flashing custom is another story, then a wrong indication can appear after flashing and it has to be corrected

Though you can leave out wiping the battery, stats, the charge/discharge cycle is what helps.

    Battery calibration does exactly that. It wipes the battery stats. And that is something your phone does automatically on each reboot.
