Thunderbolt Owners (HTC Rezound battery on sale for $19.99)

My guess is that you haven't correctly calibrated, or calibrated the battery at all. Have you?

Android, by Calibration if you mean with the app-no, I'm not rooted. If you mean complete drain and bump, yes 2 cycles. I use Battery Monitor and note no differences except the extra hour or so under my moderate use(I'm not complaining!). No miraculous effect as noted by a couple of other users. If you have any suggestions, definitely post on this thread!

Thanks but as I said, I am not rooted. As I also said I ran through a couple of cycles with bumping.

After having the Rezound battery for 4 days here's what I know. After 9 hours....5 calls, angry birds, Facebook, browsing apps, texting...I'm at just under 40%. On the stock bat after this time I was In the yellow at 15%.

Going on 4 days now and I picked up around 4 or 5 extra hours of moderate use.can't beat that for 20 bucks.

It's really a sweet deal because you get increased battery capacity without compromising the size of your phone.

Sorry guys for the confusion, but it looks like some of you missed what's in the blue box of this post from post #5. Please refer to the first post for a snapshot from December 7, 2011.

I started using mine yesterday. Today, I've had it off the charger for 9.5 hours and am at 77%, and it's almost the end of my work day. Typically I'd be around 50% or so at this time with the same usage. It seems to be lasting longer, hopefully in the coming days this result will be the norm.

Im at about where you are...very happy with the $21.95 purchase...I wanted better battery life without the bulk of the extended battery...Im happy with it so far...

Been off the charger for over 13hrs and still have 57% left. A lot better than the "1800mah" battery from eBay.

12 hours and 50 minutes on one charge and at 25%. I used it pretty consistently throughout the day just to see how it would do. Lots of YouTube and thechive.com and other internet surfing, forums etc. 3 few minute phone calls. Pandora through Bluetooth to AND from work.

Must say I'm very impressed. I'm starting to love this phone again. Best $20 ever spent imo.

Side note; wife got the battery too. She went 20 hours on one charge. Facebooking, words with friends and lots of texting and a couple phone calls.

Highly recommend this upgrade!!!

just ordered one... with all hopes it will help, i really like the tBolt except for the battery...

 

[lightem]

Looks like the deal is dead. Shows as $40 in my cart.

 

[surfsup]

we have been on the road since last Wednesday and have been using my new battery since then (even in some 4g spots)... and YES it is a significant improvement over the OEM.

in fact HTC needs to offer all tBolt owners a direct swap with these batteries.

now my only beef with the tBolt is the verizon crap-ware on it... but i'll save that discussion for another thread
