Has anyone tried this for the atrix? It seems like to good of a deal to pass up for the price. However I want to be able to see how much power I actually have left and have seen mixed reviews on other sites.
All I have to say is.. that thing is HUGE!!!

Yup. That's the one.

I've had one about 2 days now. Read reports saying to go full discharge/ full charge about 4-5 cycles to realize full potential. I've ran it down once fully and down to about 30% a few times but with my work schedule/activities I dont like to let it get too low for fear of having to be leashed to a wall plug or charger for awhile. BUT i can say that the life seems to be getting better and as for the actual size of it.. seems big at first and in pix but i'm fully used to it now and I'm comfortable with it. Havent checked the actual stats on how long since unplugged in comparison to the stock, but I'd say for the price it was worth it..
At $30 I'm thinking about it. How much thicker did this make your phone rickriego?
I am guessing that this doesn't work well if you use the fingerprint reader?
Might be able to get used to the added dimensions, but how about weight? Was that pretty noticeable?

I have had a 3200 mAh battery from Seidio for about 3 months. I have all my radios blazing throughout the day. I listen to music over the cell network while in my car for a 1 hour commute. I leave my GPS on all the time. I use Bluetooth in my car. In short I have all the features of my Atrix that I paid for. I get 16 hours on a charge on a hard day. I plug it into the charger at bed-time.
The battery shown above may well be phoney. My Seidio is the real deal. I have no financial interest in Seido.
I am on stock OTA GB from AT&T. My only complaint is that by early afternoon my Atrix begins to complain (falsely) that my battery is depleted. I've haven't researched the problem fully yet, but there is a battery daemon (battd) that I think I can kill and end that silliness.
I have tried all manner of battery calibration juju to no good end, I have posted about it in other threads with lots of advice and no resolution. Let's not hijack the OP's thread.

Seems same brand as this one http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-HIGH...AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item519a60619e ( I have an optimus) which is $2.95 .., someone is making a lot of money if it's selling for $30
BTW I have the above battery and it works fine, if I had to guess I'd say 1200mAH, seems worse than stock 1500 slightly. after 20 charge cycles I think it's starting to go bad, not sure yet, it died at 40% the other day.
I just recieved this one and WOW
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/3-7v-3...-pack-with-back-cover-for-moto-ma860-4g-65800
Streamed a 2h 20m movie over wifi without taxing it at all. Plus when it fell to 1 percent it stayed on for about an hour. I'm on cyanogenmod right now so I know the larger size battery needs to be recalibrated. I am also assuming that when you switch from the lower MAH to the higher one the battery information stored on your phone would then be incorrect. Basically everytime you switch batteries you should clear your battery memory in your recovery or download a proper recalibrating app to do so. Hope this helps everybody!

I got this batteries from my friend. Please tell me how can i re-calibrate it with CM7.2 MROM.
definately not accurate mAV. maybe a little worse than stock. Best solution I've used (if you don't need a replacement) is the little chargers with built in usb plugs that look like mini phones

I'm using a 3500MHh but I keep getting a weird behaviour. I get to 1% in about 30 minutes of gaming and than it get stuck there but the phone is still working. When plugged get to 100% in 20mins... I've already wiped the battery stats
Now that the phone has been had a few days, what kind of battery life are you guys getting? Is it better than the Evo 4g at least?
A weeks time bro, but I'll comment. Out of 15 hours I am getting six hours of moderate to heavy use with 15% left... This phone's battery is looking promising.
Like I said though, we'll need a week before we all reach a consensus.

I used mine in a poor reception building for a 9 hour work shift, texting constantly and taking 3d photos for novelty of random stuff. I left with 55%. The key is using data only when you want to. I turned off auto sync and only used data sparingly, since I didn't need it on all the time.
Right now I got about 7 hours. Not happy but ill give it a few more charges.
Also I did not accept any ota so that's one problem.

14 hours off battery as of right now after a full (green light!!!) charge. sent about 120 texts, made a half dozen phone calls, and just below 60%. WiFi/Bluetooth on ALL day, and connected to WiFi all day. Even downloaded the OTA fix for HTC Watch.
The battery is AMAZING, and this is stock. The reviewers were full of ****. Although I believe the latest OTA fixed a sync issue, so that was probably causing unnecessary battery drain.
I repeat, the battery life is great.
if this is true... and im sure screenshots will b posted shortly, think of what this will be like on CM7 running custom kernels.........
Amazing battery life for me - better than 0G Evo, and far better than Epic 4G - though I did constantly charge that battery to oblivion. Looking promising!

A couple of things I've noticed right away.
1. CurrentWidget is inaccurate.
2. The upper limit on voltage during the charge scares me. On the EVO with an SBC kernel, we were always worried about going much about 4210 mV. On this EVO 3D, I noticed a 4275 right away. Seems to me that at 4300, it's all over, right?
3. I did not notice the precipitous drop from 100-90 or so that occured after taking the EVO 4G off the charger.
2 hours 27 minutes from full charge to "connect your charger" with everything turned on and video playing. About five minutes after plugging in video playback stopped and another message popped up stating that charging rate wasn't sufficient for current power usage. I wasn't using the included charger though.
Battery meter is flaky though. Reading 99% most of the time while charging and green light indicating full charge didn't come on 'til several minutes after battery status read full.

Sounds like you didn't calibrate it. The batteries don't need to be calibrated... but the phones software sure does.

It's a bigger battery first of all...not that much bigger, but, I don't see that voltage completely out of line...and it is OEM after all...typically nobody plays it safer than OEM...
14 hours 39 Minutes of the charger. Battery is still at 34%.
I was on and off of WiFi and used the phone more than i normally would because it is new. I checked facebook a bunch, texted as I normally do, surfed the web a bit, checked email, twitter, took several 3D pictures and a couple of videos, used a few apps....blah blah blah.
I am very pleased with the Battery life so far.

So todays my 1st day at work with my evo3d. With my 4g id take it off my car charger at 6am with a full charge then by about 10am id have to stop using it to text or browse bc the battery was in yellow. So today im looked at the battery indicator at 7am....8am....9am lol and nothin changed. So i checked the battery in the settings and it actually dropped to 95%. Just to be sure i reset the phone and it was still at 95%. Wow im so amazed at how much better this battery is vs the 4g!

No kidding.
I look at my remaining battery when I go to bed and think, boy, could have used this thing much more.
The only problem is that I don't know that it will make it 2 solid days without a charge session. I'll have to see if that's possible on light use/strong signal days.
Mine so far, 4 hours with moderate to heavy usage and I have over half my battery left. Pretty good so far, much better than my OG EVO.
on the days that I think, "wow this thing has incredible battery life--it's barely moved at all since I unplugged it!" typically it will just plummet to like 50% without warning... the battery indicator is pretty much a joke if you ask me.
well...as soon as seido releases their extended slim battery i think it will be perfect...i have no complaints about the battery now and I was getting about 40 hrs on my OG EVO after putting cyanogen on it

I've been off the charger now for over 6 hours, WiFi on, Bluetooth on, about an hour and a half of phone calls over BT, 30 min browsing, push email, about 20 texts and checking Facebook and Linkedin about once a half hour and my battery is at 66%. My Evo 4G would have been dead by now with that kind of usage.
This weekend I was able to get 24 hours out of the phone both days. I'm very pleased with the battery on this phone to say the least.
Is all this great battery life with or without the updates?

+1 for the extended slim, can't wait to see that
It's funny, but I'm not quite jonesing to root my 3VO quite yet. This has got a lot of new technology (3D, asynch dual cores, 4G, etc.) that I want things fully baked. I know 4G's not exactly new, but considering how many ROMs for the OG EVO had issues getting it up an running (not to mention lost WiMax keys), I still consider it an extra challenge.
I had the 2000mAh GaliliO battery for the EVO 4G, and would go morning 7am to late evening without issues, 14+hrs with moderate use.
I would say the 3vo is comparable, but on a 1730mAh battery, It's scraping up to around 10hrs of moderate use, and I have not spare to swap out yet. Out of the box, the battery beats EVO out of the box last year, but still leaves something to be desired.
I've got a couple 1850mAh's on the way, hoping they don't blow chunks.
Battery Life -
My Battery Charges up to 100% - the light stays on - but it stops charging...
and actually losses charge.

How much charge? Many have noticed the battery cycling between 95-100% once it's fully charged. If you're losing more than that, you might want to look into it a bit further.

Funny, my Evo 4G would have been around 85% after that... unless I was in a fringe area, then all bets are off. I never ran Sense ROMs though, so it might not be a fair comparison.

Did you already install the OTA?
There's been mixed reviews of battery life in the CM7 rom for the NT as far as battery life is concerned, some are saying they've run it with moderate use since the day it was released and only used about 20 - 30% so far while others are saying battery life is terrible.
SO I thought I'd start a little poll to see what people are getting, I'm guess the battery drain is due to various software being installed so not really the OS's fault.
For me the Battery life is greatly improved over stock, for instance I took it of charge 10 hours ago, it's admittedly only been used for a few minute son and of during those 10 hours but it's lost the grand total of 4% battery in those 10 hours which I consider pretty good really.
Soi lets here what everyone thinks, remember to vote !
Battery life - improved
This is my third day on the CM7 alpha - battery life has been much better than before. Considering I have probably spent more time with the NT turned on over the last couple of days than I normally would, the battery used is less than normal. Previously I would use about 60% of my battery per day. Now I am using 30%-40% - and that includes downloading and configuring many, many applications.
I really think its much better than stock in my cm7 nt
No problems here. Take off charge around 6am and return to charge around 10pm with usually more than 80% left depending on usage.

I don't think mine has been on a charger for the last 16 hours or so, light usage, wireless has been off most of the time, and I use a task killer to kill things before I turn off the screen. Didn't power off, just put to sleep last night before bed, it's still at like 85%.
So far, it seems better than stock battery life to me, or at least no worse, and I have a lot more apps installed now.
Edit: Internal version.
It might help if folks said if they were running off SD card or internal memory when looking at battery life - I have the impression that the SD card reader on the NT is something of a battery vampire.
Internal CM7 since it was released.

Hasn't been out for long enough to really tell but my impression is that it's about the same as stock.

Odd. Is that your aforementioned case with lots of standby? On my Vibrant, the Screen bar generally dwarfs all other bars even with significant standby time. Granted that's an apples-to-oranges comparison... (I don't have CM7 on my Nook Tablet yet - can't do a comparison between stock B&N and my Vibrant at the moment.)

Yes. I don't really know what "standby" means. This use was about 40 minutes of checking email, weather news and etc followed by About 2 hours with the screen off then an hour of dinking around. Watched all the superbowl commercials, staying up on XDA and other forums with Tapatalk and learning things in CM7. I'd describe this as light use bordering on moderate.

Watching video or playing games can be quite intensive. Flash is probably the most intensive for video playing.
Keep a good eye in it over the next few days then cone back and post if you've noticed anything that makes it better or worse with battery life
Last I checked mine was going on 18 hours and at about 40%
One thing I noticed is that the charger for my Moto phone doesn't seem to charge the nook as well as the nook charger. I'll have to look at the nook wall wart and see if it's pumping out more juice. For reference the Moto charger is only 4.33W (5.1V at 850mA).

What kind of usage? Low, high, moderate? Just curious because my wife and I do a decent amount of Netflix (1-2 hours a day) and I don't have to charge more than every 3 days. This is with 1.4.0 rooted. I've been exceptionally pleased with that - power consumption in standby seems to be incredibly miserly with stock (most likely due to WiFi being turned off when the system is in standby).

On the subject of the battery, I posted about an issue I encountered last night, here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22261812
Additional information: At the time, I was fooling around with a playstation emulator, which i'm fairly sure constitutes a heavy drain on system resources. Battery drain seemed appropriate for the level of activity.

Internal install, wifi off during sleep. Figure the end of the graph was about 19-20 hours or so of sleep. Before that was a constant internet, twitter, WWF session. Screen brightness is in the bottom 1/3rd of the slider.
I am going to beat the hell out of it tonight and will see how the battery holds up. Looks pretty solid just sleeping, so we will see what it can do under load.
So found that if your wireless location is turned on, it will wake your NT about every 5 minuetes. That's not a good thing
If anyone is seeing drains, i suggest using betterbatterystats to help track down the culprit.

I'd like to take as much bloatware and battery draining apps as possible off of the phone, I usually do that with CM but I read you can't root the DNA with the OTA installed so what can I do and how can I get these free games installed (FF, etc)

Disable what you dont want to look at for now, and then when the new method comes out you will be able to root. Its very frustrating that i cannot root and custom rom this phone. With that said, it runs really smooth on stock rom.

How long does the battery last you? Can you go a full day with above moderate use (3hrs screen time+) without a wall outlet? I'm asking cause my first full day with it only gave me 7hrs and so when it reached to 20%. That's not too good. I'm using it on tmobile hspa so no lte either.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 2
it played dead trigger perfectly, took 1% battery from playing for 3 minutes or so. I read the dna's usage battery is 7 hours
i went from a full charge yesterday at 7am to 20% this morning around 11am, I didn't do any gaming I was at work for 8 hours then driving and watching a movie so it wasn't but light usage, but it's supposed to get 7 hours nonstop usage and the lock screen conserves battery like crazy
I guess I'm a little puzzled. I work in an environment where after the drive to work (typically with my DNA plugged in), I work at a desk all day (a lot of the time with my DNA plugged in), and drive home (typically with my DNA plugged in).
Am I the only one on this board who does this?
The very first day I had the DNA, I tested the battery to see how long it would go with my normal use. It went about 5 - 6 hours before I felt the need to plug it in (about 20%).
But, this isn't what is typical. How many on this board actually NEVER plug their phones in during any part of the day? To me it doesn't make sense that anyone would do this. Even for those of us that travel, we can always plug in at the airport, bus station, taxi...etc.
The battery wasn't designed to last us an entire work day, and we have to use some common sense here.

it played dead trigger perfectly, took 1% battery from playing for 3 minutes or so. I read the dna's usage battery is 7 hours
i went from a full charge yesterday at 7am to 20% this morning around 11am, I didn't do any gaming I was at work for 8 hours then driving and watching a movie so it wasn't but light usage, but it's supposed to get 7 hours nonstop usage and the lock screen conserves battery like crazy

I've heard disabling fastboot helps some wake lock issues, but idk if thats true for sure...give it a try?
I wouldn't switch to the S3..its a much inferior device when it comes to specs (minus battery life) as it is an older device...
