battery gone?

[nate39]

My droid inc is a year and a half old. About two days ago the battery began puking out long before it should. As long as I didn't play games on it, it would easily go over a day. But now even if it is just sitting there it dies before the day is over. Is a year and a half about the time the battery goes? I haven't installed anything new or at least there are no more apps running than there ever was. Is it just time to get a new battery? Thanks

I usually start noticing a drop in battery life around 14 months on my phones and other lithium ion battery using devices.
Before buying another I'd try clean the contacts with a pencil eraser. That might help. Also when you remove it to clean it, if it has any swelling replace it asap because a swollen battery can be dangerous

My INC is over a year and a half old. I have the 2150 mah battery and I also notice it is losing the charge much faster than
before. So I think that it's about ready to give up the ghost.

Yes the problem you are facing is definitely an indication that you need a new battery. Get a new one asap before this ruined battery starts to decrease the life of your phone.

I did just that, thanks
