Conserve battery - Sprint HTC One (M8)

Hello. I come from a Samsung galaxy s3 and so I'm used to that every year or so I'll just change my battery, but here's that's not the case. So I'm asking the previous owners of HTC one and well people who know about batterys, what's the best way to make your battery last the longest as possible?

It matters on how much you use the phone. I have a spare charger at work and one in my car. I usually get around 8 to 10 hours on a full charge.

He means in a year when the battery doesn't hold as long of a charge as it does now.
And the answer is he is kind of screwed but my old htc Evo even after 2 years the battery was pretty good.

How long have you had the battery, is it stock?

My battery performance is less better than yours. I got 7hrs till 5% left after 1 year mark.
Get a original battery if you need spare.

It seems stock batteries generally have roughly a ten month life which sucks, but they are very cheap.

he he.. may be now we need phones running on fusion cells. atleast they will last longer...if samsung choose not to screw the up too.
I just got a new sun global 3000mAh note battery. Let me test 1 week then tell you how is it compared with stock battery.

I read rumours that they've developed a new voltage regulator which has 200% better efficiency and should be released to general market in next cpuple of months.... Touch wood, might be a bit safer than fusion

cool,
Id still prefer coldfusion or non emmision fuelcells (dont want h20 building up in my pocket. lol. it would be lowtemp slow cooker, causing embarising "fake fap" spots, imagine all the std misdiagnoses)
It's really a pity that the batteries just last 9-10 months. Mine seemed perfectly OK but then the note wouldn't get very far past the samsung logo, messed up the /system and /data partitions. Just had a replacement genuine battery, but will be very pissed if in october it will once again be broken. Maybe it has something to do with charging with more than 1A chargers? In my car I use a 2A charger, at home it is the 1A charger that came with the phone.

I personally have always used stock charger until i had to move in with a friend and started using his non standard, i noticed a big difference in full charge times, went back to stock immediately.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
it is why they advise in manual to use original chargers only.
It could also be your not adopting battery best practices from manual. Maybe to many charge/recharge cycles?
You can also be unlucky.
Same problem here .. battery lasts in 12h
Maybe it's a JB leak issue I don't know

ive noticed my battery life depleting too lately.
Im a flashaholic with heavy usage, also my note is 7months old now. Ive done calibrations and crap but i can only get around 20hrs from my battery (8-10 of them are when im asleep)
come payday im gonna buy an extended one, but one that wont need an adapted back case.

Extended Battery

Was wondering if anyone knows of a good extended battery?
Im kind of weary of them because before my Note II, I had an HTC EVO 3D and tried using an extended battery and it just fried the the display, it never worked again.
So I was wondering if someone could link me to an extended battery that actually worked for them, I would much appreciate it.
Thanks in advance .

Look in general area. I've been doing a review on the anker
And it's awesome. Off amazon 16 prime. Can't beat it. I'm going to get another just for the he'll of it. Charge one in 3 days.

Mugen is crazy asking for $100. I just got my Anker yesterday for 16 bucks on Amazon. Popped it in my phone and it had 50% juice in it. Right now almost 24 hours later I'm sitting at 35%. Still far from being able to tell how good it will be because I haven't had it long enough but it seems very promising.

+1 same question here mate
Hey guys I just got the hyperion 6200 with extended cover and here are my results so far in pics below.
I've had the screen brightness on about %20 the whole time. If you dont mind the bulk this thing is a beast! As of right now it was definitely worth $20. Hope this helps.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
Thats not much better then stock battery imo, I can easily go 14-20+ hrs with at least 6-7 screen on time heavy usage. The note 2 is a phone that doesn't need an extended battery and deserves to stay the sexy ***** of a phone that it is (no prego back bump needed ) lol
Sent from my SCH-I605 aka macks jellybeans rom.
I definitely agree with the preggo look lol, but so far it seems like its gonna get through 2 days with heavy usage. I do like how long this battery is lasting, but only time will tell if I decide to fully stay with it.

You really can't compare your use to anyone else's. There are too many variables. It's best to compare with yourself. If you consistently get "35 hours with stock battery" would you get 70 with this one? Does anyone who uses an extended battery double or at least increase their usage considerably with it while maintaining the same usage patterns?

Well said! I did double my usage of two days instead of one through my first full charge (heavy user). I always keep my brightness at 20%, some calls emails, some gaming, constantly syncing, and mp3 player at least 4 hours a day. I kept my usage pattern the same since im mostly using it for work.
Only time will tell how long it'll last and how well it'll perform. For right now im happy with the purchase.

Following up with what I said earlier... Tho I do understand extended batteries can definetly be beneficial to extreme heavy users who are away from any way of charging their phone, im quite impressed with my results on stock battery with plenty more battery to kill b4 I get home from work (even on a 12+ hr shift)

Super long charging time...

So I've been trying to charge this sucker for more than 6 hrs, and it's going up 1% like every half hour of charging, this can not be normal.
I was in the phone doing minor things while charging but that can't be this bad can it?
Anyone have feedback to improve the charge time??
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I was using the phone this morning while charging and in a little over an hour it had gone from 24% to 29%. So yeah, it's a slow charger
Sad to hear. I'm getting this phone next week. I was hoping it charged fast like my xperia ion, which takes 2 hours to charge
There must be something wrong with your charging port. Remove battery and sim card and then insert it back and try it should probably work or else please take it to HTC service center.

I do know the one has a bigger battery but to the point where it take 4hours to charge its kinda slow... And i wasnt posting stats just comparing...

^^^+10000^^^^ why do these forums have a bunch of S3 owners talking about their S3's? I understand the occasional comaprison between what you're using and what you want but this is not the same.
It's simple. They like to troll. Anyway, back on topic, I think Anandtech mentioned that the qualcomm fast charge was disabled possibly due to fears of reducing the lifespan of the battery itself. Therefore= longer life, but slow recharge.
well mine took 2-3 hours from 5 to 100
Here it is after literally being on charge for about 10 hrs!
Wtf
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Count me in on the 5-100 in about 3hours group. Using the oem charger from an old EVO3D. Maybe you guys just got some duds. Try using different charger. Maybe you'll get lucky and its just the charger that's messed up and not the battery on the phone....
It has to be the charger that comes with the phone.... I charged mine from 10% to 100% in 3 hrs with a Gen andru .

I doubt it was a glitch. That's not actually altogether uncommon, depending on your usage patterns. On the other hand, trying to extrapolate that out to ten hours of usage is kind of silly: batteries drain at different rates over different charge periods (particularly the first 10% and the last 20%), and it's unlikely your usage is going to stay constant the whole way through.
Yea ur right. I was just wondering if anyone else was experiencing awsome battery life
