Hey guys, just got my lemon 2 days ago and its going great. I got about a 2 days on the first charge. I plugged it in at 2% like the instructions say and it started charging. I woke up this morning and it said it is fully charged and I took it off and as soon as I did, it went to 59% and has been draining really fast. Within 30 min its down to 52. What's going on?

Just got two with the charger - for me ane my gf. Both had charge over 50% before charging as instructed. If 2% - something's wrong.
Sounds like a bad battery problem, once bought a cheap BB battery and it did the same thing.

Why don't to try another battery and check whether the problem is in your phone or the in the battery. Because I'm also using a ZL and everything is okay from my side.

I can't, can't, can't, for the life of me get with those fat backs! It's just such an eye sore... And this phones so sleek. I'm curious to kno what's the largest (mah) battery you've seen without the aftermarket back?
I thought I was gonna hate the huge back too but had to try it and I gotta say... not that bad.... kinda like it even. I feel less likely to drop it.

Same here, it's like having a dinner slip grip . I think there's a 2100 that fits under the stock back plate
This has been a message from the Blu Kuban broadcast system!
I think its easier to hold with the back and I can get well over 6 hours screen time with the brightness up to about 75%. I got mine last weekend and I'm still amazed how long I use it and I get paranoid about the battery then look at it and its still all the way charged. I got the trexcell and its awesome so far. I'm at 13 hours on my charge right now with 1 hour and 2 minutes on the screen all web browsing and its at 75%.

I was just sick of battery being an issue for me on most Roms... And our phones are so slim already a little bulk don't hurt.
Which battery specifically did you get? I'm thinking of getting one myself actually, almost got stuck in the middle of a totally unknown location because my battery was almost dead. Not a fun predicament, I'll say that much.
Lol I usually never complain about any ROM cause I know my extended will still get me through the day any day

The brand on it is qcell. I've had them about 4 months and they are easily as good as the OE battery. Though I believe they are advertised as 1950 as opposed to our 1800. For $20 you can't go wrong.

I have 2 batteries so I get to enjoy my slim and sexy Epic 4G Touch without all the junk in the trunk.
Charge one to 100% then swap it and charge to other to 100% and there's no need to carry a charger with me when I leave the house.
It's not that hard to pop the back off and swap batteries...

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?

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.

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.???

the thing is im not from USA. but i found a seller with international sipping on ebay. will buy both the charger and battery.
So i got the 10,000 mAh Zero Lemon attery and i LOVE it... i am currently at 4% battery and my phone has been off the charger for 5 days and 1 hour. its amazing.
but now i ran into a moderate issues.
when the phone stock battery hit 5% it was roughly at 160mAh and stops allowing the phone to do certain things like update my dropbox use the camera.. ect.
now when the phone is at 5% it is actually at 500mAh which is almost 16% on the stock battery and i should be able to use the camera.
technically if the battery low warning is to help protect the pgone in some way then i should be able to use my camera up untill the remaning battery on teh 10,000 mah battery reaches 1.6% battery.
i would like to just disable all battery limitations completely if that is possible.
any help would be awesome
