Battery lasts for 56 hours...

And it's still at 86%...
Did I overcharge or something?

I dont know why but this thread made me lols ! The phone hasnt been plugged in
within the 56 hours ? Could you post a screenshot of the battery status screen ?

I call shenanigans

Screen off and in airplane mode is the only way you'd be able to pull that off.

You're a fool.

Epic magical uber leet jesus battery thread ftw!
Pics or it didnt happen.

I only see it possible if you did a restore and haven't charged.
Example: Performed a restore using a recovery from two days. Before restoring the battery was fully charged. This will cause the amount from last charge to be out of wack and show the amount of hours since your recovery rom was charged.

We don't believe you...you need more people

Oh that? That's a ROM I flashed on your phone. It's called JokesOnYou V1.3
Changelog:
1.0 = Your phone is dead with that image displayed forever
1.1 = Updated the framework, your phone is still dead, but now it's Gingerbread
1.2 = (removed) sent continuous screenshots to Cyanogen, making him **** his pants. I got sick of donating enough for new pants.
1.3 = deducts a penny from the debit card you use in the android market daily to contribute to steve jobs' coffin. It's pretty nifty, called the iDead and continually updates it's users letting us know that he is, in fact, still dead...your phone (sadly) is still dead and will continue to display your insane battery life.

troll bait

My cliq lasted 13+- days in airplane mode and wifi on but not associated.
That would be about the same as the OP is claiming.

Put the bats away he's not a troll.

Foolishness.

56 hours isn't that crazy if you think about it, it's almost 2 1/2 days, if you put your in edge, and low brightness and don't text or call anyone or use at all, for that matter, I think you can achieve that. There's people who go for 2 days without charging. I don't see why it can't happen. It's not a blackberry but ****tt, it's close enough.

Yeah, im calling B.S on that one. You must not be touching your phone @ all. Even with out touching your phone that sounds doubtful. Show us some screens of the battery status so we can see when it was last unplugged and then maybe, just maybe I'll believe you.

There were reported tornadoes all across the South last night.
And how could you fake this? Who in the hell would fake this?

Its definitely not fake. I was in my garage at 3pm changing a engine and all of a sudden the wind went balistic. It lasted all of maybe 2 minutes.
Not sure of injuries or what not. We have no power and all of our neighborhood and surrounding neighborhoods are blocked off from traffic right now. I have more pictures but they do no justice.

This is something that does not happen very often. The pictures I posted are just a few, there is worse damage in other areas. I consider myself lucky on this one as I was in it but just on the outskirts of it.
Just 2 blocks over from me houses are ripped apart but all our house just got some small branches in the yard.
Fun day and during all this madness I was able to swap and engine in a jeep grand cherokee ;-)

I live in South Carolina in the Upstate, and man the WIND was ****ing CRAZY today. I could only imagine what was happening before it got here. Man, sorry to hear about your neighborhood. Hope people recover fast and things aren't down for too long for you guys.

I hope everyone is ok. That's crazy. I know my basement is flooding right now where I live from all the hard rain.

Thanks for the condolences. Its going to take a few days I assume to get power restored, just about every power pole on yadkin rd which is about a mile long are down.
I can only follow what's posted on line to see about injuries and what not, hope not too many were hurt or anything.

We were on watch for tornado's all day today, we lucked out though.
It's amazing how everything can be fine one minute, and the next nature decides to unleash hell.

Did an epic cause this?

Glad everyone ok. Yeah, I'm right up the road from Yadkin too. We had power out for just an hour or two and I saw the wind and rain (freaked my puppy out) but then I heard about the devastation over there, it's crazy. I'm glad that we were spared that. Hope those affected by it are ok.

geez I am glad everything is ok. I was at a concert Friday night in Atlanta and it started hailing on us. I thought that was bad

Glad I live in Arizona all we have is monsoon and dust storms !

Did you take those pics with the Epic 4g?

Sprint just got the towers back in check a few hours ago. We also got power back just a little bit ago.
I did take those pics with my epic.
So far I have heard of 10 people that didn't make it.

Sprint should replace the stock battery under TEP. If you have it. At least around here I cant tell you how many times ive walked in with other devices ive had and told them the battery either didnt work or it would hold a charge for poop and no questions asked they just took the phone from me and stuck in a battery (new or used I honestly couldnt tell you). And just chalked it up to TEP.

or goto a popular hotel and tell them you left your spare battery and charger in your hotel room...

And . . . what? They'll let you into the room to get it?
FYI, you can get OEM batteries on Ebay pretty cheap. Saw one for under $6 shipped the other day. Also, I believe these batteries are the same as the ones in the Sprint Hero, if that widens your search results. And finally, back in the day a lot of people just walked into a Sprint store and asked for a new battery and they gave them one from a return/refurb/repair or something.

It was the jeans........ We tried to warn you!!

naw unless this is you

Its ur skinny jeans that cause your battery to die. The friction and rubbing cause electoral interfernce making it hot which increase heat also send radtion to your balls so you wont produce sperm when you get older.

I got something like this and like it:
http://cgi.ebay.com/HTC-EVO-4G-EXTE...ltDomain_0&hash=item3368b1bf51#ht_1622wt_1187
and you have an extra battery you can keep charged in the wall charger. All for only 20 bucks. If i am going to be out for a while i throw the extra battery in my pocket.

And we care if your stupid battery dies? Do you want to inform us every time you use your phone also?

You caused the quake. Gotta stop with the energy drinks.

I didn't even think it *was* an earthquake at first... didn't occour to me to think that.
I thought "wow! the upstars neighbors are really gettin it on!"

I thought it was one of the A/C units in the datacenter (40ton chillers) doing it's thing.

It was crazy here in VA. Thought my building was going to come down.

It happened in Richmond Virginia after all. I felt it slightly where I live (upstate NY). My mom felt it quite a bit in NYC though. They were evacuating people, and the phones were down.

Nothing in Central Florida, but Aunt in south NJ felt it.

I was at the top of an elevator hoistway in the Saudi Embassy in McLean Va. Pretty scary seeing this mansion shake and hauling ass down the stairs while shaking. Gotta be nuts to live the west coast! Thanks for asking op.

I felt it while siting in my truck in the DMV. Truck shook for about 5 sec. Thought it was a string wind. Looked around and didn't see any trees our leaves blowing. Then it started shaking even harder. I'm looking around thinking somebody is physically shaking my truck like wth going on. Then the office buildings started emptying and people was asking me did I feel it outside.

I like how people that are walking around here are like "this is insane!" Like they didn't know it was going to be like this. I almost witnessed a fist fight because a woman refused to move her cart.

A casualty. Someone stepped on it climbing over the pallet. He laughed when someone in line asked if he was going to pay for it.
Got here about 9:15, been in line since 10:15 or so. Not getting much closer. Very unorganized as you could expect.

No. Wife likes to go out to people watch and get a few things, my nieces stay over and watch my daughter.

One thing I notice... people give up after standing in these lines... but I do not see anyone turning away when they first get in the door...

Just heard on the police scanner there is a large fight at one of the local Walmarts. Cops that are there are asking for more backup.

I should download a scanner app and see what's going on around here. Still in line, have a while to go. Luckily they price match competitor ads... but not until the time they start at the other store. I was worried I would get through the line before midnight.

Now they have a fight at Kohls.
