[Battery-issue] is my battery life normal ?

[r12500]

hey guys! so i have an htc sensation one year 4 months old and the battery life is kinda " crappy " .
i charge it when i'm asleep and it goes from 100 to 85 in almost 5 min .. and if i continue to use it (heavy use) it can live up to 3 hours max !!

is that normal ??

or should i buy a new stock htc sensation battery or maybe u could recommend me a good battery that last longer ?

waiting for ur answers ^_^

P.S: i live in sweden ..

no it is not normal
you should definitely get a new battery
try to buy Anker or Mugen batteries
they last quite longer

Like the guy said above; buy an Anker 1900mah battery from amazon.com. Will give you roughly 20% extra mileage on stock. Also from my experience with this phone the ROM and kernel also impacts battery life. For the best battery life use the badass governor on battery saving setting and set the cpu between 192-1086mhz. As I don't game heavily and just heavily text, call, browse it lasts me a full day with brightness on lowest.

You're welcome Have you tried changing badass governor to battery saving in his init.d script? And turn off the capacitative button lights using kernel tuner. I'm using this set up and I get 4 hours onscreen time on the latest CM10 version

yes i've tried that before but no difference :| so i bought a new battery :good:

I would reset the phone and buy a new an OEM battery. You can use the 1730mAh battery from a Sensation XE(check eBay). I wouldn't recommend an aftermarket battery, since they are of lower quality that HTC made batteries.

I just bought the 1900mah anker battery from amazon . I'll try it and see

So guys I've been using the new banker battery for 2 days now .. and I find it better than my stock HTC battery but I found that when using internet apps like Facebook and whatsapp .. etc , it takes much more battery than playing games .. this is my normal battery use today ^_^
