asmcar: I also re-calibrated my battery, didn't notice any major change, the calibration just fixes how your battery life is being reported on your battery indicator. It does not make your battery last longer.
Wade:
I was under the impression that the phone uses the information from the bin file to power off so regardless of what level of charge is in the battery the handset switches itself off when the bin file tells it that it is at 0% capacity?

So yes while re-calibrating you do not increase the battery life you do in fact allow the handset to utilise the full charge in the battery rather than only part of the charge which equates to your battery effectively lasting longer?
In my case i saw a huge benefit to recalibrating the battery and without chaging any of my other habits (GPS/WiFi always on etc) so you have nothign to lose and somethign to possibly gain so well worth the effort if you suspect battery life is less than usual expectation

Well I recalibrated last night at 9pm and phone is still on 85% now and that's nearly 12 hours later so I'd say that was a rip roaring success![]()
