[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mat_oli:
nope, wish I did. But I just flashed the latest CM9 alpha ROM and am getting much better battery life with the Anker, so I may just stick with the Anker for now.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
+1, I am getting stellar battery life with CM9

A little more than 2 hours of screen on time with stock battery! Just as good as my old G2 on CM7 :D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
This is the Stock OEM battery running cm9. I have kinda noticed better life out of them OEM since using the Anker charger to charge it, kinda weird but ill take it!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
An update for me with the "Gold 2450" battery: After a few weeks now of use, I'm still seeing more than 35 hours of normal use from a charge with this thing. Man, that's like amazing for me. And here in China I'm using WiFi and VPNs a lot, too (with a local China Unicom SIM I get 4G data with the phone... sweet!). WiFi calling works great here, too (I put my T-Mobile SIM back in to do that).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Appogee:
Wish I could say the same. I'm getting, tops, maybe 4-6 hours if that on medium-high 4G + GPS (Low) usage. Not what I expected, I don't even use data that often either every hour maybe I hop on for like 15 minutes to check some things though...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
I really think you got a dud battery. Everyone else in this forum has been posting terrific results. Contact the seller for a replacement. And break it in the right way
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
I think a good break in is important. On arrival mine had about 53%, I let it drain down to 5%, charged fully, drained again to 5%, charged again and it was good to go. Takes 30+ hours to drain but worth it. Love this battery.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Appogee:
Alright so I bought a new one. Really giving this a second shot. 3rd times the charm hopefully since I already have 2. When you drain, do you actually use 4G + GPS or Torch and quick drain. Or do you let it drain by running daily usage? When I was breaking the first 2 I used 4G + GPS a lot, but not because I wanted to but because it just so happened that I needed to as we were going on vacation just before the battery arrived.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
You can drain it however you want. I would just use it normally. But you could've gotten your battery replaced. You didn't have to buy a new one
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] infernix:
Alright, I got 2 of these. I don't like them.

The rated mAh is incorrect. I've done half a dozen charge cycles and Battery Monitor Pro reports a measured ~1650 mAh for both batteries - not 2450.

They die within minute at 15%. Which means that you should view 15% as 2%. So even at 1650mAh, you really only get about 85%. Which is 1400 mAh.

The stock battery is measured at 1550 mAh so the calibrated mAh that Battery Monitor Pro is reporting seems accurate.

In conclusion, you get what you pay for.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
For some reason, my battery doesn't do that. In fact, 15% to 2% lasts a lot longer than I thought it would (maybe one and a half to two hours with Google Music playing locally).

I'm currently trying to calibrate Battery Monitor to test the mAh. Will report back.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Appogee:
I agree with infernix's conclusion. My battery does the same even after many calibrations. (CM9 auto-calibrates anyways) Within 10 minutes of 15% it'll die no matter what I do for both the batteries I have.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RazoE:
Same here. As soon as it hits 15%, BAM, it'll die within a few seconds.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] aawillma:
Oh man, I bought 2 of these when the rave reviews were flowing in and have since received them. They are meh! I have only calibrated one so far (using it until my phone shuts off and won't turn back on then popping it on the Anker charger overnight) and it is pretty weak. I would put it on par with the stock battery. These do beat the stock battery heat-wise which is the only reason why I won't return them. Two cooler operating backups that I can keep charged in my purse is worth the $15ish I paid.

I was wary that this company was claiming they could magically create the same power density as an extended battery but in the stock thin form factor, I should have listened to that logic! :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
infernix - I think I know why the capacity went down, as it happened to me as well.

I drained the battery to about 5%, then threw it on the charger. At around 70% charge I checked it and it said. The mAh was 1714.

That led me to this:

1714/0.7 = 2448.something

After that I fell asleep. When I woke up the mAh went back to 1560, which I think happened when it hit 100% and as it went down due to normal battery loss the app continued to record mAh change. I'll take screenshots tonight while charging if I get the chance.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
I guess I must be just really lucky. I'm not seeing the bad stuff with this battery that you guys report. I'm still getting 30+ hours of use out of a charge, with heavy wi-fi/vpn use and using maps on mobile network when I'm out, lots of text msg'ing. I also don't see the 15% issue, either. I'm happy with this battery.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] infernix:
What rom are you using?

---------- Post added at 12:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:55 AM ----------

You have to do at least 5 charge cycles from almost empty to full

in one charge

for the calibrated mAh to be reasonably accurate in Battery Monitor Pro.

But if nothing else, the simple fact that I last about as long on the gold "2450mAh" batteries as I do on the stock 1580mAh battery is indicative of the actual mAh in these. I cut one open to look at the insides but there's no more info other than the serial which was already posted. Also, if you cut into the metal casing it'll start putting out smoke when you short it, so don't do that ;)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Fuzi runs stock tweaked
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
Ill give you that. it doesn't seem to last as long as my anker does. Just trying to see the mAh on the gold battery. I mean, come on, 36+ hours seems crazy for a battery with such small mass.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] txmtb:
Both of mine have turned out slightly different. One of them sits around 1400, the other around 1700, and a stock battery around 1500 in Battery Monitor Pro. I always drain them until phone shuts off. I'm happy for the ~15.00 invested.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] butch87402:
So bottom line is this battery is the best thing right now cause I'm running minkxe 3.6 and my phone does withing less than 6 hours

Should I go with this or the 1900mah anker?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jonnycat26:
It's very likely you won't notice a difference between this and the "1900 mah" anker, as they seem to be the same battery with a different label.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Appogee:
Butch, try a different ROM. I was getting bad battery life, but not that bad with this battery.

Try the CM9 Alpha ROM, that should give you better battery life. That or if you want to test it out, XMC's Vanillabean is pretty cool. Gives you the Jellybean look though the kinks aren't all worked out.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Well it all depends on if you're willing to take a risk. Results seem to be mixed with all the latest reviews coming in. If you get a good one, the battery seems to perform as good or better than the anker. Other wise it's close to stock with the worst
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] butch87402:
I don't care about latest I just want stable fast great battery life

Cm9 alpha 6 right? huh I'll look for it
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Appogee:
Would have to agree. The performance isn't TERRIBLE. With heavy Wifi usage, barely 10 minutes of HSPA+ (4G), and some moderate usage of the phone here and there. I'm getting roughly 13 hours and this is the 1st charge cycle for this battery. Will be reporting how lucky I really am.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
Well it does seem to be getting better according to Battery Monitor, despite me still getting only about 12 hours of use. Here are two screenies from the past couple charges.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
Ugh damn Tapatalk.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Everyone's setup is different. How does that compare to your stock battery usage?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
I'm actually a little disappointed with comparison to the anker, but I suppose that for 6 dollars, if I can keep my data on all day, I can't complain.

On the stock battery I had to turn off mobile data or it wouldn't last till the end of the day.

The anker lasts a lot longer than this gold battery imho, but I'm gonna see if it gets better. I like how the gold battery fits better than the anker lol.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
On a side note, this battery doesn't charge linearly. I tested over a couple of days and it charges like that all the time. Even drained and charged my anker just to see the difference, and the anker charges linearly. Maybe one of the reasons the battery drains funny.

P.s. you can't add pictures to the forum to an already posted post from tapatalk. Shucks.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Most batteries behave that way though. The first 80% is always quicker than the last 20%

On another side note, have you tried the xda app? It's not amazing, intuitive, or very polished, (shocking, I know for xda) but it gets the job done
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
Haha yeah I had xda premium for a while, until I found out that virtuous posts on rootz pretty much exclusively. My friends that had a prior mytouch swear by them, so I don't wanna miss out on whatever they have.

Anyway; this is how my anker charges normally (I'm sure using the same charger. I have two plugged in and I usually just grab a wire, but they have the same output so I don't think it really matters).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] adrenalinemedic:
Alright, I've had mine for about a month, maybe a little longer.

I was going about 17-20 hours between charges (put it on the charger while I slept) and it was going down to ~40%. This is with constant texting and facebooking, with light browsing, gaming, and calls.

It slowly got worse, and now I cant do 12 hours without being forced to put it back on the charger.

Definitely an improvement over the stock battery (was needing to hit the charger every 5-6 hours), but I'm alarmed at how fast it's gone downhill. I guess I'll see where I am in another month.

Worth the $7 though.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] bucd:
Any more updates from others on this? I'm trying to find a good replacement battery. This or the anker one or any other?

thanks,

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] MT4GS:
Do read this thread and make your own decision :)

I have it for few months, and my "gold" battery last 1.5 day with 3 to 4.5hrs of screen-on time with my regular use, with everything except GPS set to ON all the time (but I do allow/turn GPS on when using maps or navigation).

Obviously few people here either got different battery, or their setup is very different.

I'm using stock ROM. The only things that I do with this stock ROM: since I'm not on T-Mobile, and to prevent sucking the battery, I kill "t-Mobile backup" process and "t-mobile contacts" whenever I restart my Android (the "pink contacts" process that runs along the gmail's "blue contacts" process). I found out one of these two, or both, are most likely responsible for cutting my battery life by about 1/3. When I kill them right after reboot my battery lasts exactly as I described, if I forget to do it I know I forgot to kill them by the end of the same day ;)

Also I uninstalled "Where is my Android" app because whenever I had it installed my battery life dropped to half, max 14hrs of my regular use.

There might be more of such "battery sucker" apps out there, so my advice is: know your ROM first, before jumping to any conclusions.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
You do know you that you can just remove those apps through titanium backup if you're rooted?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] shahkam:
Could you post screen on time screenshots ? And ive read somewhere that if you rip off the gold plastic wrap underneath is written original mAh and its probably not 2450..

Seriously, read through the thread. This battery has been covered top to bottom already. Don't bug him (or anyone else for that matter) with questions that already have answers, or screenshots that are already posted :silly:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] txmtb:
I've had mixed results with 2 of them. 1 is pretty good and the other is so-so. The 1 does better than stock, measures around 1700-1800 using Battery Monitor Widget Pro. The other kind of sucks and only hits around 1200-1300. The 6 month old stock is right at 1500 as a comparison. Both the gold's started out about the same but the one took a turn for the worse after 3 weeks or so. The good one gets me through the day so I'm happy with that. It was worth the 15 bucks IMO.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
Well, I guess I have a late bloomer or something. My battery is consistently lasting longer now and battery monitor started showing me better results.

It could be a fluke, I don't know; I'll have to see if this is consistent.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] MT4GS:
Yes. I am planning to root it already for long time, just got no time :(

OTOH this stock ROM is actually very first original ROM in any phone I ever had I cannot complain too much. If it wouldn't have come with those few stupid "T-Mobile's own" apps I would have probably not even think of replacing it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] shahkam:
Sorry to hurt your feelings dude ive searched like the first 5-6 page and saw no screen on time screenshots i thought perhaps he doesn't upload it ?

And if he would feel bugged he could tell me it by himself..

No. Links are in the very first post. It takes few sec to check out all of the links from 1st post to find the one you wanted, while it take much more than that to login and write your snarky reply. You would have know that had you read those "5-6 pages" as you've said. You lied.

And after gtmaster303's reply you could have actually tried to read the thread and you could have found links in the 1st post right away - but you chose to post your snarky reply instead.

You lied and deliberately wasted everyone's time.

There are only few logical explanations for doing so, and neither one is flattering... a "troll" is the least offensive one, so that's what I'd call you.

Lol brother, it's surprising how few people know how to use the search feature on this site. Even after 2000+ posts. I swear, there should be a MANDATORY video tutorial with every new account sign up. That would definitely eliminate some clutter and noob moments :)

I don't mind if people post. Hey, that's what forums are for. But don't beat a thread to death just for the hell of it. Keep them concise and clean, so that when someone needs an answer, they can easily SEARCH and find what they're looking for.

To even say that it's equivalent to your anker is a great thing, I think.

There is such a thing as a break in period (although I don't know how long that is for batteries). Usually the highest capacity is always at the start, and they decay from there
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] MT4GS:
Actually, what we need here is the opposite of "thanks" button (and that's what I suggested since the day it was implemented). If we would see i.e. "-20" shown by someone's post we'd know not to waste time reading it or much less replying to such poster...

[LG Optimus Black] mistervalor:
First of all, sorry for my english.

Now, my problem, i had a boot loop so i flashed my optimus black with "Smart Flash Tool", and ive installed "LGP970AT-00-V10a-EUR-XXX-APR-07-2011_AP" that rom.

It worked just fine, so i rooted my device with Lg Esteem, in order to install the Marvel v8 rom, and here is the problem.

I download rom manager, save the rom file into my sd, and reboot into recovery, the phone reboots but never enters the recovery, it starts like an update.

In the screen i see a white box with an orange arrow coming out of it, and the android robot, thers a bar bellow that, that is moving, and then, the phone reboots

and starts froyo again, just like if the phone were new, showing me the configuration steps... so, i cant enter the recovery menu.

i had tried all, flashing it again, downloading another booter (quickboot), deleting all my sd files but the marvel rom zip, and nothing...

A friend of mine told me, that the cellphone starts an automatic update, but i wasnt able to find any topic or tutorial or at least someone who has the same problem than me...

Id hope anyone can help, and understand my poorly written question :D

Txns by advance :)
