Let me guess, one of those really cheap Chinese ones with the black and white labels? Those are sometimes okay (barely) and sometimes total crap. For not much more money, try buying an Ankers brand battery.

True, cheaper batteries are often not at all what the label says and perform worse than an oem one that is 4years old, but some are good, only testing the battery will tell
You can test if its the phone/ROM/kernel/apps causing the issue by looking for drainage and wakelocks with apps like better battery stats and watchdog
So the answer could be you need another battery or you need to change something about your phone, but you will need to test to know

Ohhh gosh not enough pocket money to buy a new battery

Question with battery

I purchased the official Seidio 3500 mah batteries for my evo and the wifes evo. After a full charge, her battery under normal usage all day and night is at 57%. My phone after a full charge and barely any use whatsoever was at 13% after an hour..... We are both running Azrael x3.0 rom with the newest htc kernel #15... any suggestions?? Maybe my new battery is faulty?? I would expect this from ****ty ebay batteries, but not something official!! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Try eliminating a variable by swapping batteries with your wife....then use your old one again.....if both work well then you have your answer......

Swap batteries ... if hers only lasts a short time in your phone then issue is with the phone. Then you can start troubleshooting.
Edit: Ha I was a few second to slow!
Ok I will give that a try.... I noticed in the battery left widget when I go to usage, the very first one says "running" 84%, and I click on it, basically it is stating that the phone isn't sleeping when I lock the phone..... could this mean that the everything is staying on when it should be sleeping?
Thank you for tips!!

Switch batteries with your wife.
EDIT: I guess that was too obvious! We must have all hit return at the same time!!!

Ok after being on the charger for all night, I unplugged it, and really haven't done anything and I dropped to 90 % within 8 minutes.... I haven't had a chance to try my wifes battery yet, but im thinking this one is definitely faulty...
Why would android system be at 63%???

Dropping the first 10% quickly is not a certain indication that its the battery....your battery charges to 100% and then, begins to be used up to 10% before it charges again.....so you could have been lower than you thought you were originally ...thus making it appear that you dropped 10% in minutes.....if the remainder of the battery does this then I still recommend you try swapping with your wife to eliminate or confirm

Ok well I just wanted to say thank you guys for your advice, but I think I figured it out.... I think that some things within the phone were not getting along. I flashed the SBC-Net-4.2.2-more-havs kernel #11. I fully charged the phone, including bump charge, and I left it on for about an hour or so longer, and I have been unplugged for 1:44, and my awake time is 45 min. I am still reading 100%!!! So I think I am good to go....
Thanks again guys

When is it best to change ur rom?

On full battery or still plugged on the charger.... I know if u change your rom on half or low battery it really screws up the battery...
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I've never heard of such a thing. I've switched ROms many times while @ 30% or below. Regardless, I think it's best to be above 50% and on wireless.
Why would it screw up the battery? I've installed many roms on many occasions and my battery was not fully charged. I'm gettng excellent battery life on CM7 right now (yesterday/today's uptime is almost at 19 hours and still at 40% with moderate usage).
I have the stock battery, mind you.

It really doesn't matter at all, just don't do it with 5-10%, don't want the battery dying while you are in the middle of a flash.
When u recharge the phone when recalibrate does it have to be off or on

This is all you need to worry about man. This goes for updating radios and recoveries through bootloader aswell. If your batt dies in the middle of something it could turn into a brick
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Make sure that it's just charged enough that it wont die in the middle of a flash. You don't want that expensive of a paperweight. Other than that being said, i've flashed roms with under 40% battery before.

If you are talking about wiping battery stats, that really doesn't do much.

Strange battery issues

Hi.
I've got a strange problem on my gio. The battery is draining quite fast and when there is only one percent left it switches off. If I plug in the charger now I see, that there is more than half of the battery left. What can I do to use this battery time as well?
I already wiped battery stats and made a battery calibration but there was no change after that.

Same problem here.
I've tried some ROMs and since then, the battery is a disaster.
Charges really quick and drains even faster. I am talking about 15 min with wifi or 3g before it dies.
Help please!!

Or, if you have a custom recovery, try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1517044
Might be the problem... Otherwise it's dead I'm afraid...
In my opinion it could be a dead battery.
If you couldn't solve your problems with the other links, buy a new battery.
In my case that helped.
AW: Strange battery issues
Yes it was the battery. I just bought a new one and it's lasting for ages now )

Suffring bad battery drop

Hi im suffering with big battery drops well not drops but its just turned off at 37% will a simple battery calibration work? Ive installed battery calibrator for nexus one will that help someone please help
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda app-developers app
First try the battery calibrator. If that doesn't work, your battery is probably finished. How long have you had it. I believe it's normal for the battery to start acting like this after 2.5-3 years, so it might be time to buy a new one.

Problem with batery on sm-t211

Hy all! I have a problem with the batery on my galaxy tab 3 sm-t211.
One is that is charging very quicly ( about 2 h) and after that the level is dropping very fast and in 15 min maximum it reaches 1 % . But, even if it has 1% i can still use it all day without any problem. If i lock the screen and unlock it after half h the batery is at what level it should be but again it drops at 1%.
About 1 week ago this thing stopped and the batery drains normal, i mean charging all night and have batery for all day in (not 1%) but after 2 days it restart to drop very quicly.
So please, if you know something tell me !
If you are rooted try battery calibrator.
