Get Double Battery Life On Any HTC Smartphone

This is the most interesting tip I've run into: a cycling process that appears to condition the battery. I'm running it now and it takes 10 hours. Some say it will double battery life.

3) Unplug the device Turn on, wait 2 minutes and turn off and charge for another hour.
