For those with "BATTERY LIFE" problems

For those that are always looking for more battery life and do not mind carrying a extra piece of hardware. I have recently purchased the Anker2 external battery found at this link: http://www.amazon.com/8400mAh-Exter...PRQ4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1328040410&sr=8-2
This lasted me on a 12 hour+ trip with juice to spare. its relatively small and can fit in a pocket of small bag. Just putting it out there for the community as an option.
Great Recommendation
This definitely is a great recommendation. I bought it last week and have been using it. Love the battery charger. Better investment than spare batteries out there.
Thanks for the heads up!
Thought it's great for my upcoming trip! Having to carry the cable around is a bummer, but better than constantly opening the battery door I guess!
Has anyone here bought the 2000mAh Extended batteries?
How long do they run for??

I got the cable that retracts to save space. The battery itself is not that big.

I use something like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B002SXCFTQ/ref=redir_mdp_mobile/177-7385370-1542620
Or just use your charging cable that comes with the phone. The one I have was for ease of travel.

[Q]Amaze bricked?

Alright guys first of all f**k. OK so last night I left my phone off charge and when I woke up this morning it just wouldn't turn on and when I would plug it into the charger the orange led would be solid then flash then off. So honestly I think its the battery but I'm wondering your thoughts

This happened to me before. Some say that you need a newer recovery, some of the older custom recoveries won't charge on a zero charge battery.
But here's how you fix it; find a friend with the same battery (you know, with an amaze or a sensation) and put your battery in their phone for a little while to charge. Once you can get your phone booted you'll be fine.

As much as you flash and develop I figured you'd have more external chargers and batteries than I do!(2 external chargers and 7 batteries!)
But yea, I'll bet you it is just the battery even if you have the right recovery.. so many little things can go wrong with the batteries, look at the little plastic tabs in between the contacts on the battery(look at pic below), if they start to bend you have to break them off - they can make the phone think the battery is overheating until you break off the plastic, and it won't charge..

Need help ASAP. 'Battery&Charging issue!'

Hello.
First, I would like to intodruce my self.
My name is James, and I live in The Netherlands.
I have been using my one X+ now for a while and I am pretty statisfied.
However the phone is starting to shows some failures.
During charging, either the phone or charger, gets very hot but doesn't charge.
I have tried couple of chargers, as well as the charger for the Lumia 920.
But that one doesn't seem to work anymore as the charger itself is getting very hot, but doesn't charge the phone. Not even giving the symbol that it is trying to charge.
This was my last resource, so I really need some help!
Please help.
The phone is completely stock.
Running on android 4.1.1.
Kernel 3.1.10***<lot of extra that I don't think is important.
Smallband 3.1204.168A.32
Build number 1.17.401.3***
Thanks!

The battery charges again!
The charge test did the job I guess.
The charger is still getting hot though.
I hope this solved my problem, at least for now.

Where you are using the phone what the root temperature ? is it too hot ? I had a similar condition when I was at a hot place for 2 days , moved back to my city and all ok now as weather here is pleasant
Well thanks again!
~For the record,
I live in The Netherlands and the climate here is not seen as warm, it is summer and there still is a chance of rain and temperatures are below 20℃.
Haha, that was not the problem.
Thanks for thinking with me though!

[Q] HTC Amaze won't charge once battery fully dies

Hello everyone
I have an HTC Amaze (bought it about six months ago) that won't charge at all - once the battery fully dies, it will not charge again and I know this isn't a charger related problem because once I insert my brother's phone battery (he has the same phone) into my phone it will work and it will charge (until it dies). I bought a new battery the first time it happened but the same thing happened once the battery fully ran out - it wouldn't charge again. Can someone tell me if this is a handset related problem or what?
Oh and I've tried charging it with multiple chargers, including connecting it via USB to a laptop. Nada.
Check your battery connections.

Basically take off your back cover and clean the golden connectors. Use soap lightly or rubbing alcohol or something. It should work. Also, clean the battery connectors and make sure it's DRY.

The best to use is a pencil eraser. just clean all the rubber that comes off out of everywhere.

You may need to use an external charger to charge it. The battery is probably going bad. This happened to me last night. I took it out and put it in my anker charger, and now is charging again.

Make sure the rom you have on it doesn't have any charging bugs. This has happened to me before when I first purcahsed my amaze.

Sounds like a bad charger, either this or a bad batter/USB port but I would first attempt a different charger or USB cord, preferably a high quality one

You think sir it's USB port?
Sent from my Razor using xda app-developers app
well if you need to plug it in 5 times and then when it does charge its real slow, and you have tried multiple cables to the same effect, this would be my guess.
if it were me i test to see if its software related first, if your rooted try a few roms
also check to see if adb works over usb
also there are apps to test usb, i use zdevice test for a lot of hardware testing, cant remember off hand how good their usb test is though (kinda remember there are better ones but cant think off hand)
if you paid by credit card often you can get a copy of recipt by calling cc company
I already tried Rom but it doesn't change anything sir.. and my phone is local brand
