hey guys I just received my extended battery for my HTC Incredible S, and i want to know
is there any procedures I have to do? I put the battery in my phone and it finally booted up ( hence why i got one, stock battery died or something, phone wasnt charging or f**ing turning on for like a month) now it works. I put it t charge but i didnt see any gain in the battery life after 10 mins so i took it off, installed a new ROM and all that.
Im reading from like 7 people, some saying do X others are saying do XYZ some are saying do E
WTF DO I DO??
please tell me! Do I turn it off and charge? Do I wipe battery stats, please help!!
Oh btw I no longer havr the stock USB cable, im using my sony ericson one so yeah, just saying :laugh:

Hi everyone,
I dont know what happened with my HTC, when I woke up this morning, the phone wont turn on at all. Even if I connect it to charger, the notification light doesnt on. I tried remove the battery and reboot, but nothing works.
My phone was rooted, S-OFFed and running [ROM]Viper 1.3.5 and still working last night, I didnt do anything to it (at least when I was sleeping).
Could anyone tell me what happened to it and how to fix it?
Thanks in advance
How long was it on the charger?

I put it on charger for about 30min, the light doens even go on, like, no charging at all. The phone still wont turn on
Could be the battery. I have had this very same thing happen to me with a new battery. No charging light at all, no sign of life what so ever! As soon as I poped in a new different battery, my phone sprang to life once more. It was very strange because the battery I was using had charge left last I checked and it was on the charger. When I checked the phone it had no life at all. No charging light either. If I we're you, I'd try a new fully charged battery, to see if that will solve your issue. Don't mess with the device before you try the new battery. My issue was the same as yours and a new fully charged battery solved my problem. Hopefully that's all it will take to also solve yours. It certainly can't hurt to try! It worked for me. If the new battery does not solve the issue then you have a different problem all together. But do give it a try and see what happens. Best of luck.

Well, I cant mess with it since it doesnt startup. Thanks for your idea, I will try it later, I have no spare battery here atm.
Yeah just like the post above says, maybe with another battery it will work. Check Amazon for batteries theyre cheap but who knows how long it would take to get to where you live. Best of luck

Hi there, you can order a good extended battery like Anker for under 20 bucks. I really hope the battery does the trick. When this happened to me, it was so strange because I was using a NEW
Battery and it had around 60% charge when I plugged it into my charger . Then when I went to check the phone after changing for about a hour it was black. I took it off charger and it had no life at all. I thought maybe the charger didn't connect properly so I plugged it back in, then I noticed I didn't have any charger light like I usually have. Phone was completely dead and it would not charge. Strange. I had another fully charged new battery I kept as a spare, when I put that battery in, the phone came back to life and the charging light worked again! I have not had ANY problems since. It's been about 5 months since that happened to me. I never used that battery again. I just threw it away. It must have been something with the battery. It would not even charge! No lights or anything! I'm really hoping this is your problem also because it's easily fixed. Please keep us updated and let us know if new fully charged battery solves your issue too. It sounds exactly like what happened to me, so I'm hopeful you can solve this with another battery. I wish you the best! Good luck!

It was the battery guys, I bring it to the HTC, and they tested it with new battery, didnt work also. So, they put in a new mobo, new battery, then it worked. They insisted to keep it a few more days to serviced it though. I forgot to tell you guys it still under warranty, sorry a lot.
P.S.: They even gave me a HTC Desire as a temp phone
Hello people, In a last few days I went through an uncertain and wierd issue with my battery.
Now, allow me to explain the situation.
It happened around this new year, suppose if I charge my battery to 100% and then use my device even for 10 mins (note: all this has been performed without installing any app, with fresh ROM installations by full wipe and using the stock kernel in every case) when my battery discharged to 91%, the point is even if I leave my phone on standby, the battery would last at a maximum of 2-3 Hours.
Now, If during this procedure I power off and re insert the battery, the battery level would suddenly drop to any random percentage, sometimes even 1 or 2%, directly from 80%.
Quiet wierd isn't it? Anyone who has gone through the same situation could please help? Or any ideas that you people have?
This is really Important cause my phone is nothing with a charger at the moment, I can't carry it anywhere.
On a side note, I have tried every other JB, ICS and GB ROMs for testing this issue, even the stock ones but unfortunately the same results
Any help is much much appreciated. Thank you
I think issue is with the battery, you should buy a new one and do the procedure of insert and reinsert, it's happened with me too but i was on HTC Wildfire S.
Try to change the battery or any of your friend have nexus s, you can take him from just for checking..

If this is the wrong section, please let me know. I picked here because it seems like the people here have a wide knowledge of how stuff like this works.
A while ago, I replaced my phones battery with an AceSoft 2050mAh battery. I accidentally left my old Samsung battery in my pants pocket and it got fried when it met the washing machine.
Then yesterday, I had the oh so wonderful idea of rooting my phone to make it faster and better on battery. What was my result? A rooted phone, that I could not charge. Apparently the AceSoft battery that worked in my phone before the root is no longer supported. Every time I try to charge my phone and every time I start it up I get a message saying "unable to charge non supported battery see user manual" I looked in the user manual. Nothing.
So my question: is there a way to get into the phone (via Root Browser or other) and disable the battery check?
Hi Guys,
Got my phone in the second month after its release and have gone through n number of ROMS. Not sure if its that that has taken its toll or a bad ROM, but of late (since a month ago), my battery lasts about 1.5 hours if I switch on either 3G or Wifi. Turn them off and the phone runs fine ... maybe 8 plus hours ... maybe more, have not really checked.
Thinking it was a bad ROM, I went through many from 4.2.2 to 4.2.1 to 4.12 and 4.1 ... all with absolutely no change in battery life ... not even marginally.
Am thinking of getting the S4, but given that this one looks unblemished and as good as new, am thinking of getting a new battery and giving it to someone back home that would be pleased to have it.
Was therefore wondering ... could it be the phone or is it definitely the battery? Don't want to spend on a battery and end up with still having just about 1 hour of power.
Any input would be appreciated including what battery you'll think I should get. Are the original batteries still available for this phone or are we down to "the king is dead, long live the king"
Battery I think

I have stock 4.2.2 ROM and battery runs fine, so i think it's your battery. The best way to verify is to flash with last official ROM and kernel.
Or borrow a friends battery to test it.. Either way a complete wipe and flash to stock won't hurt to try.. If you have cwm wipe the battery data too..
I think its a battery problem

I got a new battery, and yeah, it was the battery, for my case.
This made me have second thoughts about Nexus 4 which do not have changeable batteries!
Hello All
I have an HTC Desire S that is about 2 years old. Everything is great about this phone. Recently I found that the it was not holding the Charge. Sometimes it would show as 90% charged & the moment I disconnect the charger it would drop down to 10% and worst the phone Powers down. I noticed the battery is slightly bulged when I put it on a Flat surface. I have been trying to get a new battery but unable to find the battery as the Service center says that the set is not in market anymore and I don't want to be at risk by using a fake battery. Can anyone please let me know any other HTC phone that uses the same battery as the Desire S?
Also while on ebay I found this link. Can anyone please suggest is this a good battery?
