[EVO 4G General] pardonmyownage:
As you can see below the way htc charges is like stated in the first post. it starts with a CCS (Constant Current Source) until it reaches the max voltage of 4.2V. This happens at my 77% in the code. it stays at 4.2V and the mA's start decreasing. This is the second part of the charge where it changed to CVS (Constant Voltage Source). The second it reaches 100% it cuts off the charger. Thats when we see the -mA's come in. The voltage stays at 4.2V though. It doesnt charge for about 2 hours, then at 5:17 it has a burst of current. (Same at 5:24 and 5:25). It seems to be random when it does have the burst of current. This is why you see the major drop sometimes after you unplug your phone. because you might randomly be at a point where the current burst hasn't happened yet.

The way i understand it is what SBC does is instead of having the -mA's, it keeps the voltage the same, but the current input in the battery drops slowely to 2mA or 0mA. This keeps load on the battery, while HTC charging scheme randomly puts load on the battery.

Like people have said...

Q1-While having SBC, the temperature doesn't go very high. Thus there is no danger

A1-Correct, there is no danger from over temping while using SBC

Q2-My voltage on SBC doesnt go above 4.2V, and 4.2V is well below the limit of the battery

A2-Correct, there is no danger from the voltage being at 4.2V

Q3-The batteries have safety precautions to prevent the battery from exploding or doing harm to phone

A3-Correct, the batteries are design to fail before harming the phone. but these protective circuits are there for a one time use (much like a fuse). Onces it does its' job, the battery will not work anymore.

Q4-I'm willing to use the SBC kernel because i don't care about long life of the battery and i need the extra battery life now

A4-Understandable, we all wish the evo battery was better. (or any battery for that matter)

Q5- Since my temperatures aren't high, Voltages are below 4.2V, and the battery will protect itself and i don't care about long term life of the battery, it is safe to use SBC.

A5- Well, the answer can go both ways. There is no risk to the phone itself. BUT having the voltage at the safe 4.2V while constantly putting a load on the battery, will cause instabilities inside the battery and might break the protection fuse rendering the battery useless. This is fine if you have extra batteries around, i know the stock batteries are cheap to replace, but some of the extended batteries are not. if you have only one battery, well you are SOL until you get another one.

Edit: (from wfrandy) If the plating/corrosion inside the battery from holding it in a charged state is allowed to progress far enough, it can cause the cells to short out. This would lead to thermal runaway which could cause the battery to explode or catch on fire.

this COULD be why in one instance the battery was smoking.

its a gamble...

I've read through most of the failure posts that claim to be because of SBC. there hasn't been a phone that has been damaged, but i many cases their batteries refuse to work anymore, leading us to believe the prevention fuse has been broken. they say if they use a different battery, it works fine.

While no case is the same, i'm assuming that all the failures are indeed from and because of SBC. (there are so many factors involved we cant really confirm this)

i used to believe SBC wasn't causing any harm. and in respect to the phone, it wasn't. This is however gambling with the battery itself. most people can live with getting a new battery every 3 or 6 months, but it can kill it faster than that.

i'm not going to tell anyone not to use SBC, but if you do, you should have a spare battery around just in case it does trip the protection.

Everyone would agree that the EVO battery is absolutely terrible. what MS did was try to fix that. He also tried to make it better and easier for people with extended batteries to charge their phones. His work is great and he accomplished the mod pretty fast. that being said, i don't think its finished. it is still in its alpha/beta stages and still has room to improve.

this is what I've accumulated from the start of using SBC and reading through these threads. let me know if anything i've said is incorrect.
