hi all i just recieved my mugen 1500 mah battery for my desire hd :D :laugh:
i will be testing it over few days .. and will report how the lasting has been :D
August 24
Have charged my battery as per instructions continuously for 8 hours... After that went into my flight with 96 percent battery.. Listened to music through out the duration of my flight about 2.5 hours
And my battery dropped to 88 percent

Doing my second charge cycle as I write this


Ok so the battery actualy does what it says.... Now my device lasts all day long still with 20 percent at the end

Congrats, but do you really feel that this announcement thread covers some extra need that the many existing Mugen battery topics don't?

How good is the battery though...

Can you give a screenshot of the battery stats (or a photo or just typed record) and also how good was your battery life before?

That does matter as different people will use the phone differenrly. Is your wifi always on, bluetooth GPS e.t.c

Thanks for the post though, I may buy one :)

I get - 3d 12h with Blackout ICS Incredible and standard battery - few calls, few times browsing in internet, few messages. My battery stat then seems a lot like yours.

People who get 3 days, should tell us exactly how many hours do they use their devices.
Cause having a phone powered off for 16 hours per day, it's not exactly the typical use.

Yeah it would also be good to know the screen on time, because it seems like my screen absolutely destroys my battery and I have no chance of getting over even 1 day usage. Im thinking of getting a new battery, but not sure it will be any better

With Data or Wi-Fi on for a few hours don't expect to get full day without charging.

Yeah thanks, I did use juicedefender for a while, but now I've decided that my display usage is causing all my battery drain. How long screen on time can you expect to get out of a full battery? I know that's a vague question taking into account data/wifi etc, but just a general idea would be good. Thanks

That's a pretty difficult one to answer!

I'd say it depends on the screen brightness and what you're using the phone for:

If you're outside a lot, and you have auto brightness, that'll mean the brightness is 100%. I use a small app called Lux, which is - I think - the only one that allows you to map your own brightness curve, and then decide the refresh frequency. Works very well for me, since I need less brightness indoors.

Processor load while reading emails/browsing is much lower than if the same screen-on time is for gaming for example.

I have also lowered the processor frequency when sleeping, so I guess that will increase the relative weight of the screen-on consumption.

I mainly browse and do emails: currently of 210 minutes on battery, the screen has been on 85 minutes :eek: and 38% of the battery has been consumed.

The use details section of the System/Battery summary says that the screen has been responsible for 64% of the battery drain.

I must also add that I'm using a custom ICS ROM, and there have been comments that the battery statistics are not 100% trustworthy, so take these figures as orientative.

Also, I have had the battery for 18 months, and Battery Monitor Widget calculates 1200mAh capacity. Again with the ICS ROM I have my doubts about this figure, I will eventually run a few charge cycles on the stock battery - which has broadly the same age - to see what degradation is reported there. Comparing the 2 will give a reasonable idea about how capacity for each one degrades over time.
