Help what does wiping battery stats do

[Hunterbeav]

I'm talking about an unrooted htc evo. What does this do. Does it help when going from a stock 1500mah battery to a 3500mah battery. Also if it is beneficial how do I go about doing it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Jim

Ive never heard of "wiping battery stats"...

Yes, it is highly recommend you wipe the battery stats when you change ROMS and especially change batteries to improve accuracy.

If you have ClockworMod Recovery, jump into that, select "advanced", then "Wipe Battery Stats".

I am unrooted and do not wish to root how would I do it in that case. Thanks

Try booting to HBOOT (with phone off, press Vol Down and Power for about 5 seconds), move down to select BOOTLOADER and press Power button, move down one and press Power on RECOVERY and see if there is a Wipe Battery option with the version you have. If you don't see one, go back until you can select REBOOT. I don't think you'll be able to wipe your battery stats unrooted.
