Average charging time of dinc2 - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

It takes about 6 hours for my dinc2 to charge from about 10% to 100%. That is a huge amount of time. I had a Nokia previously and it got charged in just 1&half an hour. So i was wondering is this normal or is there something wrong with my phone or charger.???

How long have u owned it? Buy it used? Mine used to take 45 on a car charger (used an old blackberry charger) n now it's about hour n a half. Clean contacts or replace both battery n charger.

Hours.....ridiculously long. Whether you are charging the OEM battery or a copy, they take long to charge using the dock. However, after you charge them, you can keep them off the charger and somewhere handy (like your car) and they will maintain the charge for a good long while.......over a month.
I have a cheapy Chinese batt, and it works great. Under what I consider moderate use, I get about 20 hours out of it. Only take me about 2 1/2 hours to charge.

I'm pretty sure they are all made in China. I rotate 4 batteries, 2 OEM and 2 after market; all perform the same.

Paper weight or possible fix?

Before getting my SGS3 I used flashed a CM9 nightly and all was fine. After switching over phones the day of the release I put my phone back in its box in my desk. I missed it and wanted to play around, check out new development, and actually my first SGS3 was stolen off the bar so would have loved it as a temp instead of a BB. But anyways I picked it up and plugged it in... nothing won't charge no matter what, I left the battery out for about an hour plugged back in, left it plugged in over night nothing worked. The phone worked perfectly before I put it in my desk and it was untouched...does this sound done for or is there something I can try. Appreciate the help in advance.

Your battery may be fully discharged. Then mobile phones are incapable of charging them. This happened to me with old phones but not recently.
What you have to do is to remove the battery and apply highcharge to it.
Take a powersource which is capable of giving about 6-7 volts dc and connect two wires from it to +ve and -ve terminals of your battery. Hold it like that for about minute or two. Not more. Then try to charge the battery without turning on the phone. If don't work try increasing voltage upto 12v

Defective battery?

So I ordered a 1800mah battery for the epic. It fit and everything but literally while charging it and on browser on just data, the battery life decreases while on the charger. It also almost died at school today. On my 1500mah, I ended a 7 hour day with about 30-40%. On the 1800mah, I got down to 20 and below. If kind of makes me mad that I bought a bigger battery and out sucks. And what is a good 1800mah battery for the epic?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda app-developers app
The battery from the Epic 4G Touch is your best bet. And as for it dying on the charger, it's the charger, not the phone or battery. I know this because it's happened to me. Try a different charger

Yes I ordered the Samsung epic 4g touch battery. And sadly it isn't my charger because I am using the same charger on my 1500mah battery and its charging fine.

Not always the charger.... When I'm on 4G and trying to use Google Maps even plugged in I drain my battery. If I shut GMaps down, it starts charging as per normal.
It was really frustrating when I first got the phone, as I was in the process of moving to Denver and knew where nothing was. Now, at least, I know the area well enough to just have it on at the start or end of trip.
The Anker samsung battery (search amazon for it .. ~$10 and 1800mah) has shown good results for me.

it is normal for the phone to consume more power than the charging pack can output....... you might not of had this problem because the 1500ma battery uses less energy than a 1800mah battery(hence the extra life..) if you charge with a USB 1A charger it should charge the new battery better. also, turn of 3g and watch your battery charge about 2times faster than with it on.

And yes it does perform better. I have 2 1800 mAh Anker batteries and there amazing I got a deal for 2x 1800mAh batteries and the charger from Anker. For 20$ on amazon don't listen to reviews they said the charger is bad but mine has performed well for several months and still is. I. Had gotten 4 days before on CM9 with minimal use and on regular basis I get 12 to 18 Hrs with 3 Hrs of screen on time

This is the one I ordered -- getting about 20 hrs of battery life vs. 12 hrs on my stock (2 year old) battery. Non-OEM batteries are typically a hit or miss, but amazon's return policy is dead simple and free, so IMO worth a shot.

I have been using an N7000 for 2 years now. A great phone - but the achilles heel has definitely been power. I had three bateries for it. Got one of those fat aftermarket batteries with the phone cover - it was absolutely useless - I don't think it even held the equivalent power of 33% of an OEM battery. Picked up another aftermarket battery similar in size to the OEM battery. In fairness, that hasn't been too bad - it's only in the last few weeks that it seems to have tanked - cant get much of a charge on it now.
Even with all of those - when I would go away travelling, there still was no comfort. I would have to curtail the way I used the phone. It's for that reason that I've turned to this power bank.
Only received it yesterday - but it seems to be exactly the same as the OP's. Charging it right now.
@Warnahly: Has the power bank retained its integrity since you first started using it? In real terms, what do you suspect is the real power storage of this device (if we are to work on the basis that it probably doesn't strictly live up to the 30K mAh description?
