Hi,
~ same situation here.5 hours almost dead.
disable bth and put it in 3g or better 2g. wait for some chanrging cycles and see then.mine has 1 day...so i guess we need more time to figure out how the battery behaives
Yeah may be but the person who sold me the phone said the battery life was excllent lol good at her job then telling lies to get a sale hehe
go back to the shop and ask for your money back...
1 hour is damn short time...for sure is something wrong
This thread should be closed.

I will not be paying that!!!

I was going to get one.. But i had second thoughts as the size is an issue for me, ended up getting 2 spare Battery's and Desktop Charger.

dude already bought a spare standard size battery and was very tempted to buy a thrid one...
After taking the device of full charge and probley using it for 20 mins for a calls by midday it only got 20 odd percent left.
Problem is iv got push mail runnin with exchange for work- reall time sync- got windows live runing for hotmail- reall time sync again adn i know they hammer the battery life....
if i cant find the extended batter by Monday i will need to take another device with me, which for the love of god i want to avoid - i cant even bring myself to say the name of that damn other device!
Ahh i see, just been searching 4 one not found any yet.. most places seem to be outta stock.. Hope u find1, best of luck
Buy a USB battery pack.
You can get a Li-ON one, or you can even buy one that takes AA (harder to find but more convenient)

thanks dude, never really thought of it... not bad for a emergency charge when you cant get to a power point!!! also found this along the same lines..

Hey guys,
I bought Galaxy S on Oct 2. In various threads I have seen people say they get 1-3 days on 3G with some gaming and all day active data connections.
In bangalore we have only EDGE(2G) and I use my phone only for calling(15-30mins) and texting(25-30) with some minimal Facebook access....I allow my battery to charge all night and start my day around 8:30 in the morning and my battery doesn't even last till midnight....its somewhere around 20% at night.
is this normal or should I visit the Samsung service center ?
Also can somebody suggest me a good site which ships additional batteries to bangalore ?. I tried spider-foot.com and their shipment has reached me even after 20 days.....
I'm currently in Bangalore too. But my SGS's battery life is most certainly worse than yours... Beginning to wonder if this is a local issue ?
Same issue here.. Blame the Network Quality in India?
Even i faced the issue initially.after one month i find it okay. May be i am consoling myself.
I never felt the advantage of having 1500mah battery.
God bless sgs users

when i was in india, i was a heavy SGS user and i did get through the day on a single charge.
i had push updates on for gmail, exchange mail, twitter and facebook. #i never logged in to gtalk though.
half an hour of calls and a lot of browsing....
so from 8 to 6, i would still have close to 40% battery remaining....
The battery on the SGS has some calibration issues or I dont really know, there are times I get good battery life and times I lose 1% per hour of idle, sometimes I reboot my phone I either lose or gain anywhere from 15-30%.. pretty random.. But with 2.1 I had a constant battery life though.
my biggest fear is that now with 3G being rolled out this one day wonder will become a one hour wonder
Come on guys....we pay 28K and dont even get a freaking day of juice!!!
Whats the use a superb device with no power......should have bought the N8 instead.....

dude!
i use 3G/3.5G here, and it still lasts me a whole day (Yup, 24 hrs with heavy usage)
as long as i dont have any crapware/bloatware installed i'm all good to go
and buy a bettery pack if you have complaints....
OK I bought the battery !!! Ive seen the bad feedback (some good ) now its here. Im going to test this out and let you guys know if any good !! Hope i didnt waste my moneys !!!!!
First point ive noticed ....... It charges quicker but that isn't allways a good sign :S <----- my moneys
Oh! Yes please give us your feedback

No problem lol --- will take a good few days for a full report but today im trying to run it flat as fast as I can then i will just copy like for like with the lg standard battery looking for a big margin mind.
One thing I can report and my case may be contributing to it or the fact ive never run so many apps at once is its burning my pocket !! Im running a live stream from some scanner app whilst downloading a torrent im never going to end up getting whilst having wifi gps bluetooth full brightness all the tweaks that kill battery time and it was charged up on full power 7.28 hrs ago and im on 30% give or take. when its fully dead i will turn off phone and do a recharge and give a time then do the like for like. :s <----- my moneys lol
And, what is your oppinion after 5 days?
I think the Battery Exploded or was fakelabeled.
Sorry for taking a while on this had some medical issues. Never the less ive being using the battery and i can report its a wrongen. I keep running low well lower than the originall battery as for performance no change. I think the battery is in fact lower than the standard battery and i lost out. I now use it as a back up but know i would have been better off withy the 1800 or the portable charger or the 2 standad batterys with a wall charger. The guy has had bad feedback for far to long and I will contact ebay.
Dont be a mug like me and buy
Did you get refund?
Shiittttt... Does damn fake products...
Well better no spend money on that , if the battery doesn't explode, your phone could...
[editted title] Shiittttt... Those damn fake products...

im gonna take my thrill back today and get a new one! I am having trouble with the battery as many people are but I dont know if it is worse than others. I unhooked it a few minutes ago and it went from 99 percent down to 90 in about 3-4 minutes and down to 80 in another 10 minutes and im not even sure what is running in the background because I thought I had an app killer installed. anyway the other problem is that I cannot get an internet connection at all unless I am on wifi. I have unlimited data and should be able to use programs like facebook even at the university but I cannot. Does anyone think I am doing the right thing by returning the phone? sorry about the long rant
Sounds like you have a bad battery. When I first got my Nexus S I had the same problem replaced that battery through att and it has been fine ever since. Also I have noticed that some task killers cant remember witch ones in specific hurt battery life. I would take it back for a new one may as well replace the whole device if you can.

The data thing definitely sounds like a bug. The battery on the other hand is normal on some new Thrills. After a week or so it should settle in and battery life gets better over time.

Yeah, if you first got the phone it takes a few cycles before battery starts to improve. But it seems pretty bad, i would return it since you have the oppurtunity.

Thank you for the replies, I have had this phone for about 3 weeks and I keep it plugged in at night through usb but I also have to connect it for a few hours in the daytime as well. I havent had a chance to return it but I may do so today although the wifi issue seems to be working now. maybe the At&t Network was down?

A note on the battery issue? What's the signal strength like where you live? The data signal in my house is so bad that if I forget to turn wifi on after getting home from work my battery will drain close to 40% over night. My wife's Captivate does the same thing. If the signal is weak the phone will constantly poll for a stronger signal.
All that aside I would definitely still take advantage and seek a replacement while its free. If you still have issues atleadt you'll know its something correctable and not the phone.

Hello.
Yesterday I received my htc one.
So far so good but there is something that does not have me happy.
Is the battery life, I had loaded all tonight at 9:00 unplugging and went to work.
At this time I have 39% of battery, and use only a little web browsing, whatsapp and twitter, but not much, I think it was downloaded too use it and die, and all this with the power saving mode activated.
You think, what should I do?
Thank you.
I had a a similar experience during my first couple of days using my One but it seems to have sorted itself out now. I noticed having it on wifi seems to use less power than mobile data if that helps.
Wait a week or so before forming an opinion. As with many smart phones it takes time for the battery to bed in and be fully calibrated. My battery life is superb. I've used my one today heavily with music playing non stop and it's still on 70%.
I wouldn't be worried at all. Mine was the same when I first got it but I wasn't worried because I've had the same thing with every phone I've had in the past few years.
Give it a chance to hit full stride. If it does turn out to be an actual problem, which I strongly doubt, then you'll get a replacement. Nothing to be concerned about.

Mine was poor the first one or two days and now it's fantastic. Give it a few more charging cycles.

Thank you all for the answers, the truth is that I think it has improved, and as you load and 2 cycles and it seems that if it improves enough.
Thank you very much for the help!
Also keep in mind the first few days you own a new device you are using it a lot more because you are checking it out all the time.
