NO. You don't need to let the battery to charge for 16, 14, 12 hours.
Just charge it completely and than use your phone.

[Q] G2 takes 13 hours to fully charge?

Okay so my G2 takes about 13 hours to fully charge to 100% and then when I unplug the charger the phone reboots and when it turns back on the battery level says 0% and the phone dies. Does anyone know what the problem could be? Do I just need a new battery?
I don't know if you need a new battery or not but this definitely isn't normal. Is your device new or have you had it for some time now?
One thread is enough for the same question.

Desire shutdown at 13%

Hey,
My desire shutsdown itself at 13%. The Desire HD of my brother shutdown at 0-2%.
Ive tried to reset batterystats but it doesnt help.
What can i do?
Gee, I can't tell.
How about googling about it first?
It was Same on stock rom as i bought it newly (before 1year), it cant be because its old, and Ive calibrated it too, more Tipps i cant find there,
It is a problem with the battery stats. HOWEVER. I've read somewhere (cant remember where ) that even though its an annoying problem. Re-setting the battery stats will not improve battery life. It will give you a more accurate representation but the battery life will stay the same.
Instead of messing around ressetting stats just remember that 13% = dead battery.
just my 2c
Some batteries shut down with 13%, some with 20%, some with 1% and others with something between. As long as you did not notice a strange battery drain, I would just stick with 13% = dead battery (as already mentioned).
Ok, i asked because i thought it isnt normal. Thank its ok.
Thank you
I guess it depends on the battery. I have one that goes almost until 0% and I have another one that holds only until about 11% or so... 13 is not that bad!
My desire did this, except it shut down at around 20%. I just bought a new battery, not even an official HTC one at this fixed it. Now it shuts down at 0-1%.
So basically, its just the battery imo. My battery was about 1 1/2 years old and had seen better days.
Used to have this problem
When I used CM7.0.3 I had this problem, now running LeeDrOiD HD 3.3.3 with Sense 3 and it only shuts down at 2% or less.
i have same problem too
same here
Mine used to do this aswell. Reboot to recovery and clear battery stats? Then full charge and full discharge.
Worked for me at least.
Mythbusters to the rescue.
Like every desire user am having this problem too. I often switch between roms. Even after resetting battery stats my desire dies at 15% battery.

calibrate the battery ****s down at 0% then
I think, you have to reset the Battery Stats. For me it helps!
Lol.
It is not a problem any longer since theGanymedes published his great guide.
Notice how he never mentioned wiping battery stats?

... buit how can i fully discharge the battery if it shuts down at 13 or 20%? even if i restart the phone, it shuts down again
Mine just shut down between 45% - 48%.
Ordered a new one
Same here @ 18%, going to test some methods and inform you
You need to recalibrate the registers in the battery. There is a special program that does that.
Use this howto and it will be fixed.

BTW, you need to have Cyanogenmod or Oxygen installed for this to work or a distro with a kernel that supports it.

[Q] battery training

i heard something about battery training
maybe it helps for the battery on the htc one x
charge youre battery for 8 hours whit youre phone on
then turn of youre phone off and charge it again for 1 hour
turn youre phone on for 5 minutes then turn it off again and another charge for 1 hour
anybody know if this works?
There was something similar announced from HTC for the desires. However it really screwed with the battery stats and was only detectable when running custom roms and the UOT battery percentage mods. Mine used to shut down at 20% sometimes, other times it would make 10% which was frustrating. A LOT of people had issues. Left alone on my sensation and that was fine. I would avoid imo.
Want to get the most out of your battery fully charge it with the phone off and fully discharge i a few times when new and the once a month/fortnight after to help it.
ok im going to try that one to thx
A full discharge is bad for Li-Po batteries, but it might be good for Android battery calibration. I would not fully discharge the battery on a regular basis, it will damage the cells.

one x charging

is it better to charge my one x to 80 % cz i noticed that it lasts longer does this hurt or i should charge it all the way to 100%? and if you have other tweaks or things to do to the battery to last longer please help bcz hox dosen't have a removable battery and thanks!

What do you mean ? A phone charged at 80% should not last longer than a phone charged at 100%, it doesn’t make any sense because more charge = more battery life.
Generally partial dischargers (not letting the battery drain the battery all the way) will make the battery last long.

U can use m9 or m8 battery, https://www.ebay.com/sch/sis.html?_...id=182471622726&&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2658
First of all, the phone shutting off below 10% is not unusual, in itself. The battery % meter is just an estimate of remaining usage based on battery voltage and your usage patters. It can't be relied on, to be that accurate (to within single digits). And you shouldn't be regularly letting it run down that low, anyway (bad for long term battery health).
Phone shutting off at around 30%, may just mean that the battery meter is not properly calibrated. Hold power + vol up + vol down, until the phone reboots. This will reset the battery meter. Then charge to full, and drain to 10-15% (or attempt to, anyway). See if that helps.
