I just got a new battery from HTC, a replacement for the stock one um using. Should I charge the new battery as sion as I put it on the phone or shall I use it and wait til it die before I charge it to have a better battery life?

The batteries that come with a new phone are usually around 40%, they do this because 40% is a perfect amount to charge at. If you battery you receive is at around 35%-45%, I would give it a full charge, if any less, or at 85%+ I would use it until it runs out, then search the android market for a battery calibration app.

I have a stock phone no rooting or not flashed. Are there any battery calibration app for a stock phone?

I just used the replacement battery but everytime I look at the stats it still shows the stats from the old battery. How can I clear the stats to start a new one. My phone is pure stock out of the box no root or flashing. Ty.

I'm facing some battery problems at the moment. My battery drains extremely fast that it won't last past half a day. When I charge it it charges extremely fast from 0-50%, then slows down. When I restart the phone at around 60% when charging, the phone becomes fully charged.. anyway to solve this issue ?

Don't worry, incorrect battery information is common after flashing a new ROM.
What you need to do is download a Battery Calibration app from the Play Store.
I recommend this one. Charge your phone to 100% and calibrate.
It can also be the first signs of your battery beginning to die.

Hey thanks.. but ummm that fix is for the random shutdowns?
My problem now is wrong reading of the battery, i don't experience any random shutdowns at all..
So is this also relevant?

Random shut downs often occur due to over heating of the battery.
I guess if you aren't experiencing any of that, you don't have any problems with battery temperature.
How old is the battery? And how suddenly has the problem come up?
I run into this problem many times.
But very simple solution if there's nothing wrong with battery or phone.
1.reboot into recovery.
2. Wipe battery stats under advanced.
3. Let your phone completely die on battery. Turn it back on couple of time and let it die.
4. Charge your phone to 100% + 10-15 extra mins.
5. Reboot into recovery and clear battery stats again.

I do something like this, but without all the extra hassle. There is an app called Battery Calibration, it shows you a read of your batteries mV and it does the same thing as the above, wipes battery stats.
I use it to check my mV, which with an anker 1900 the max mV is 4203. I keep my phone on charge once it hits 100%, then allow it to drop down to 99%, unplug it and plug it back in, it takes several times doing this, but once my battery % being 100 and my max mV (4200), match, I wipe my battery stats (Hit battery calibration.)
One thing I have noticed with ALL ICS ROMs is the incorrect battery reading after rebooting. You'll have say 56%, once you reboot it will jump 15-30% and show, say 79%. Then it drops quickly down what it was prior to the reboot.
Doing a battery calibration in no way helps extend battery life, for me it just does the same thing that will happen after several cycles anyhow, it just saves you time from having to run multiple cycles to get your device and battery to sync up.
This is just what I personally do, I know people are going to post saying that doing a battery calibration is pointless, and probably point you to where google even said it, etc, etc. As far as the calibration doing anything special, it doesn't. I simply do this to get my device (When at 100%) to see my battery at 100% (4200mV). It works for me.

Yes! Once you start using a spare battery, you should ALWAYS alternate between the two batteries. Otherwise, it will affect the life of the battery.
Use One, Drain it, Use the other, Drain it, and repeat the cycle. Always charge your battery through your phone and not through a battery charger as this will charge the battery in highly optimum conditions and the phone will keep a track of the battery status.
Good morning, today I got my battery anker and was thinking as to put no ****ing do anything, the charge to 100% and then I put it?, I put the download and then I wipe bat? , Someone shoot me some trick.?

It sounds like your battery is faulty, my ankers go down to 1% before switching off but they do drop very quickly when they reach 10%. Battery readings are accurate, apart from after restart when the % spikes upward then quickly drops back to the correct level.

I need a way to debug my phone and figure out what is causing such high CPU usage and poor battery life. After startup, my phone sticks at 100% until it freezes and restarts but sometimes I get lucky and it goes down a few percentages but freezes again when I start multi tasking a bit. I don't know what changed. Any app to debug or log what's going on?
Also my phone will read a low battery amount and when I restart, it jumps up 20-30 points

Search for better battery stats here on xda. That would be a good point to start... But dont put too much effort in breaking down what the issue might be, just go and buy an anker

Install Wake Lock Detector to find out which process is hogging your CPU time.
From what I can tell, all the normal startup apps (mesages,facebook,widgets), are using full amount of CPU. All of them. The blue bars were full. That's for the few minutes after startup being 100% usage. Still investigating the random spikes that occurs while using my phone. It's a matter of being able to open and use this app as my phone becomes unresponsive

So I've been running apps and periodically monitoring my CPU. When it starts to get above 80% on both 0 and 1, I check what's up with wakelock detector and it doesn't even list the app I'm using when my cpu spikes like dolphin. It happens often with dolphin, tumblr, games. But they don't appear in wakelock.
The apps that do appear are barely doing anything

What's your battery ?
4 hours is very low. Maybe you need new battery..
And which rom exactly do you use ?
I used Inspiration 1.0.1 for a log time and i had the best battery life on this rom. it works fine with lower CPU/GPU frequency. Vipers 5.0.0 also seems to have nice battery life (i'm on it now).
