What is using your battery the most? Is it possible you installed something different since?

I would try doing a battery cycle. Some say it works, I did and I think it improved. However I can not seem to find and I am headed out. I can tell you moderator WOOP and EarlyMon posted it, and I think in Tbolt. I will PM him and ask, until then search.

More importantly this:


Collective experience shows that sometimes, not always but often, the charging circuit may not be calibrated out of the box. Others have found that this procedure will calibrate:

1. with your phone on, charge while observing.
2. when it hits green, immediately remove from charger and power off.
3. plug back into charger. if not immediately green - your charging circuit is not calibrated. in such a case, charge until green, immediately remove from charger and power on.
4. plug back into charger. if not immediately green - repeat this process until off or on, if indicating full charge in one state, it immediately registers full charge in the other state.
