Has happened to me sometimes too a few times, but generally, when my phone hits 5% I plug it in.

Your battery could be on its last life.
Did you try to take out Battery for 30sec-1min or did you tried to reflash the Firmware?
Try doing a forced full cycle... kill the battery 100%.. Like I mean make it so NOTHING happens when you press your power button, NOTHING, like, no light, no vibrate, nothing.. and keep doing this for 10-20 minutes JUST to be sure ;-)
THEN do a FULL charge...
This has helped me with countless cell phones and ipods. always breaths at least a bit of life
Ok its me aging hopefully this hasn't been posted either cuz I haven't came across it....but anyway today I decided to calibrate my battery let it die out and charge while the phone is off...and this was around 5pm....I fell asleep and it is now midnight and its still charging and I know stock batteries don't need a lot of time to charge unlike extended batteries.....has anyone else come across this or does this phone need 7hrs plus of charging??

There is no need to calibrate the battery. When the phone reaches 99% charge capacity, it will take a while for it to achieve 100%. Once it achieves 100%, it will let the battery drop back down to 95% then it will begin charging back to 100%. It is a repeated process. It will keep doing this until the phone is removed from the charger.

That is interesting.. Are you using the stock battery/charger? Are you connected through an outlet or usb port?

Once you disconnect, your battery drops from 90 to 70 in a matter of minutes?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
If that is the case, I would say bad battery. BUT I do remember reading that there were some Evo 3D's that suffered from the same problem, and they were also getting extremely hot. If that is the case, I suggest exchanging.
Was your phone normal before?

It was normal as no issues that I've noticed but this was the first time I charged the phone being off also and I doubt an app wouldn't cause this specially when the phone is off so therefore nothing running

Let the phone die down to 15%, then charge it. If it drops significantly again, then we may have a problem. It could be a bad battery or an app you must have downloaded.

A smart phone is like a pocket sized computer. There can be malicious apps that can harm the phone. But if that isn't the case, I suggest hard resetting. If that still doesn't work, replace.
Edit: Try my other solutions first.

I personally had strange battery problems the first week I had the phone, and after that my battery life became quite good (I did the battery calibration technique from the og evo and it helped a lot also).
So if you're saying it's strange after a couple days I'd say give it a chance to go through a couple more charge cycles. I'd bet the issues will sort themselves out.

Re: Screen off Battery Use
Do you guys think it's normal to be unplugged for 2 hrs and be at 85%? This is without even turning the screen on.
Something is wake locking your phone.

Yep - sounds like a lot is happening on your phone. The other night I left my phone on while sleeping, and it drained from 100% to 85% over 7-8 hours.

75% it was on the whole time...even though screen was off....
This is the screenshot its a straight drop over the hours mentioned ... slope stays steady so its Constant power drain until I noticed ( you can see on the graph)
None of those apps were open, and I had done a restart right before. ( I fell asleep which is why I know I wasn't using it)

On top of the screen i see the skype is running in backgroud..

Skype and Words with Friends destroy battery life if you don't completely kill them. Show us the top of your usage stats, not the graph.

Right after I rooted mine I had terrible battery as well. I ended up reformatting (not wipe, actually formatting my system and caches) and then installed my rom again, fixed permissions and my battery life has been amazing. If I don't use the phone my battery maybe drains five percent all day long. If I use it a lot it will last most of the day as well.

The other thing you should check is you fast dormancy.
If you're flashing custom ROMs it's best to do it at a FULL 100% charge. In the past, before I started doing this, I had major battery life "problems." My phone would drop from 100 to 1 in a matter of hours and just hang on 1% for hours on end. If you haven't done this, download Battery Calibration, turn off your device and plug it in. Once it reaches 100%, turn the device on, run the app, and restart your device WHILE STILL PLUGGED IN. Once everything settles you should be good to go.

I get up at 5am take phone off of charger start Bluetooth audio streaming at 7am and stop it at 330pm go home play some games text facebook and all.
when I go to bed at 10pm im usually at 15 percent with 4hours screen on time.

I get an average of 20-25 hours per charge. Usually I plug it in around 15-20% charge left. Screen on time varies from 4 1/2 hours to 6 hours 45 minutes. Depends if im using the browser more.. Can't beat that. Coming from a Rezound....this is killer battery life.

One great feature of our phones is the option for an extended battery. I run a 5200mah battery and these shots are from a day when i was testing out how many hours screen on time I could pull off
On normal light usage days/weeks I could probably get 4 -5 days no problems. Just I reboot and flash a lot so rarely do I get those screen shots lol
Also I run Mahdi ROM with KToonsez kernel...

I got the paid version. Actually think I got it way back when either the first DROID came out, or when I had my incredible.
