I'm using a different method on my Desire though to calibrate my battery now. | |

quote: Set it up, leave it running and docked and then after using a few apps (say at lunch you send a few texts, use facebook, play a game, check emails etc) just open it and hit "kill selected apps". I have mine set to Auto Start, Auto Kill Level at Crazy, Auto Kill Frequency at Screen off and security level at high. All I have in the ignore list is the program itself (Advanced Task Killer Free), 3g watchdog, Weather and Clock. Battery life lasts fecking ages now. | |

You need to connect the phone to the charger (wall charger, not PC) with the phone powered on, and allow the phone to charge until the notification LED is green, indicating the device is fully charged. Disconnect the phone from the charger, and power it off. Reconnect the phone to the charger with the phone powered off, and allow the phone to charge until the notification LED is green. Disconnect the phone from the charger and power it on. Once the phone is powered completely on, power it off again and reconnect it to the charger until the notification LED is green. Disconnect the phone, power it on, and use it. You need to use this sequence only once. | |

Had the same with my desire a few weeks back. The camera app had crashed but was still drawing full power. Phone died in about 2 hours from 75% charge. | |
