original battery lasted me about 15hr on moderate use. With Andida, it gave me 5 hours. Not sure what was wrong with it or my phone. I'm gonna try it out for a few more days. I paid 15 bucks for and I was expecting at least 1800mah from it though it was advertised at 2250mah, but from my experience it performed worse than I expected. Packaging was very nice, I feel like I paid $10 on the packaging quality, not the product. Also, the weight on Andida is lighter than the original one. That wasn't the case when I got Anker battery for my sensation.

So did you give it one full charge and one depletion? Also do you have pictures? The more information you have the better. Maybe even a screenshot showing the usage throughout the day comparing it to your original one.

im on my second day of conditioning. i used juice offender to drain the battery quick, charged overnight to 100, wiped stats, then juice offender on my way to work then i let it charge up all day (9 hours) wiped stats again. i just took it off the charge about an hour ago and im already at 88%. im running a stock bloat free rom without syncing ANYTHING. no background syncing apps installed. im going to give this one more day of conditioning. so far no good.

so far, the battery life is about the same. off the charge at 7am and I'm at 91 by 8am. all I did was listen to music through my headphones omw to work. stick to OEM. its good to have a spare though.

You know that wiping stats doesn't do anything right?

have you used the battery calibration app to calibrate once you hit 100%?

i do but i flash so much that i forget that i have it in titanium backup (over 1,000 apps). i usually do all my configurations manually. correct me if im wrong but doesnt the app only wipe the battery stats and generates a 100% battery file?

*update on the andida battery: i have plume and facebook updating every 4 hours. beautiful widgets 3 hours and 2 push gmails 1 corporate push running. did 10 mins of ebaying. tracked 12 packages on ups app. 40% screen brightness and 20 minutes of calls since 7am today. with four hours past, i am down to 62% battery. i am running the latest juggernaut rom. thank god i bought an anker slimtalk 3200 mAH power bank! at this rate i would probably get about 9-10 hours off a charge. combined with the anker slimtalk, i can probably last a full day.

ok with that being stated, what if i told you that i wipe the battery stats just to clear the battery settings ui so i can see a fresh charge/discharge? sometimes when i reboot on some custom roms, the battery stats will say ive been discharging for X amount of mins/hours when they were supposed to clear on the reboot. i also know that you can easily read the slope to figure out the charge/discharge time but i always start off fresh on everything. diane does prove her fact but you have to remember that im not flashing bug-free stock roms.

screen shots to show what i mean. i defiantly did not have my cell on over night. it took till about 11pm last night for juice offender to drain my battery. after that i skipped the battery stat wipe and charged the battery with the phone off. rebooted at about 6 this morning. just thought to check the stats and this is what i got. it appears that ive been on stand by for 11 hours when actually im at 100%. the second screen shot shows the battery after i wiped the stats. this is why i wipe my stats.
