I use a custom Rom and whenever I plug in the charger when the phone is off it goes into flash mode and doesn't charge... is there any way around that?
[XPERIA X10 General] shahkam:
well you can try booting ur phone and then charging it or plug in charger let the phone start right before it goes into flash mode take out charger let it boot narmally replug not sure if gonna workk tho :/
[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
B1nary explained this to me.

When you flash with flash tool, sometimes the kill command is not set.

So every time you plugin your phone it goes into flash mode.

So you just need to flash a empty FTF.
[XPERIA X10 General] shahkam:
Awesome dude noe i have better battery life i used to loose 4% each 12 minutes now i loose 8% each hour whit 3g on and browsing xda thanks :)
[XPERIA X10 General] marrduk:
I just try to calibrate my optimus one battery and I have one question here: is it safe to repeat calibration after I've made one? I'm not sure, if I did it right first time. Sorry for entering other phone thread, but I found a link on this in some optimus one topic.
[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
I don't know.

If you can send me a optimus one i can find out for you :D
[XPERIA X10 General] marrduk:
Of course, I can:D. I've got garage full of p-500 and my own delivery company:rolleyes:

But seriously, if it's safe for x10, I think it would be safe for my phone. Then, the question is: can YOU repeat calibration on YOUR phone without any possible problems?

P.S. Thank you very much for your quick answer.
[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
It should be fine.

Most phone cells have over current protection.

but i would suggest using the phone normally for a few days. "about 1 week"

And then trying this again.

Next time try to save your battery stats before flashing.

But beware some roms use different charge monitors.
[XPERIA X10 General] marrduk:
Thanks a lot, I'll use it for a week, until new try.
[XPERIA X10 General] kyakaze:
Thanks alot OmegaRED, it definitely lasts longer now.
[XPERIA X10 General] dadsnobest:
If step 7&8 does not bring the battery to 100% use the battery calibration app from the market.

Thanks for the procedure, although I had little success i did get Battery Calibrator free from the market and it worked perfectly. I thought it was going to be a flop when the charge led turned green at 89% but the voltage and % kept going up, I guess it continues to charge even though the led is green. At 100% the voltage was 4208.

Would you know the max voltage the battery and X10 can tolerate without damage?

Thanks for your thread it made me take my time and understand what my problem was.

The older I get the Geekier I get
[XPERIA X10 General] Charaity:
i need help with the discharge bit in step 7. "Let your phone run down it's battery

Don't use the phone aggressively"

The problem is i'm on trips rom (v0.9.5) at the moment and it takes a while for the battery to go down. I lose about 3% in 12 hours standby :(

The only way i can run my battery down is either youtube or leave it on music

but isn't this considered "aggressive"?

someone help me as it says to do this step a few times and i am NOT going to spend a month calibrating my battery :mad:

P.S actually can som1 post me their battery stats.bin file? then i don't hav to do anything :rolleyes:

x10i battery temperature!

hi,

i have SE x10i and i downloaded some apps in the market and my phone suddenly restarts... and i flash it on SE PC companion and its now ok

the problem is that when ever i charge the phone the battery heats up and then my phone also heats up and shuts down... i get the battery out for some few minutes to cool down and then it gets ok.. but because i want to charge the battery but still same problem..

what should i do??:D

regards,

if i turn off my phone, unplug the cord and remove battery, plug the cord, insert the battery it won't boot up, its just stays on the battery logo in the middle, is that what supposed to happen?

*on other topic since i cant post on "development" thread..

I'm using wolfbreak v4, and the stock theme manager is gone, how can i re install it? Thanks much appreciated
[XPERIA X10 General] mjborja788:
noob question..

is it ok to stop repeating steps 1-5 after more than 5 times of doing it..

im waiting for my phone to stop charging any further but it won't..still reaches 100% everytime..

does this line on OP which says now applies to my situation?:

"IF in the case that it keeps charging after the 4th time your battery is fully optimized Enjoy, Continue with step 7"

[XPERIA X10 General] katinsh:
Effect is great!!! Before this mode my battery drains in 10-12 hours now it works for 20-24 hours. Impossible.. =) Thanks! Great work!

But, I also have got one issue. Now my phone is switching off 2-3 times:

1) than my battery reach 15%

2) -//- 5% (not always)

3) -//- 1-2%

I am using EWJet ROM version from 16 Aug 2011.

I am not using phone aggresively, about: 30min games, 50min e-radio, 60min wi-fi browsing and 120min 3g internet browsing, 120min calls, 10 sms, 10 emails, 5 photos, 1 video - per one battery charge.

Does anyone else have got such issue?
[XPERIA X10 General] KradEdis:
Are those figures correct?
[XPERIA X10 General] katinsh:
Yes, everything mentioned above is correct.
[XPERIA X10 General] lythanhlong:
Here is what I acknowledged.

Battery calibration app DOESN'T WORK for me.

Wiping battery stats in xrecovery actually works for me.

So I am curious to ask this question, how does this help increase battery life

Well, on another thread I read, you can get better battery life by wiping battery stats in xrecovery after 5-6 tries. It works smoothly. As for your method, how is it suppose to work?
[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
No offense to the developer, it's just not working for many people.

Depends on the chargemon.

By correctly setting the upper and lower limits of the charge monitor.

Due to the full forced charge and discharge of the cell while the chargemon collects the stats.
[XPERIA X10 General] lythanhlong:
Ahhh, alright. Thanks for clearing it up for me. So I did this 6 times. It's actually quite better except it didn't stop at 99% like you said. So do I just keep doing steps 1-5 until my phone can't possibly charge anymore?
[XPERIA X10 General] SpikeNaples:
Thank you. I've cycled for a few days and all seems well with my X10i.
[XPERIA X10 General] Salahuddin91:
Help regarding to guide

My batter keeps on charging fifth time too after 88% and lastly i completed my charge to 100% and now i am implementing step 7 and 8 . Did i followed your guide correctly , if not , please do guide me :confused:
[XPERIA X10 General] Lofwyr:
After Step 4 (put the battery back) my phone didn't boot alone... it just turned on the Sony Ericsson screen, and after that the dim battery icon with a thunder on it. Should i turn it on?
[XPERIA X10 General] NET1028:
Noob question

Congratulation for the guide, i can read that a lot of users are satisfied,

on the step 4

4. Re-insert your battery

This is sets the top end battery parameter to a higher state allowing for further charging.

Should read 88% now.

when i re insert the batt i have to turn on the device right?

sorry for the question
[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
Nope just plug it in.. and let it charge offline.
[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
Nope... doing it more than 5 times is too much.

Consider that it's already at full.

Sorry that i'm hardly online to answer questions but currently working my butt off on a Android FPS project.

So i haven't been giving my x10 the love she needs.
[XPERIA X10 General] lythanhlong:
Ahhh okay. Well I reflashed the stock 2.1 rom so the battery stats are default. I flashed Wolfbreak custom rom. Then I used your method. I cycled to 5. And stopped there since you said 5 is max. This is the bit in your thread that I don't understand:

"6. Repeat steps 1 to 5

Repeat this no more than 2 to 5 times till the battery will not charge further

A few extra may be required...

The battery may get stuck at 70% to 99% "most of the time 88%"

The cells have now reached full potential

IF in the case that it keeps charging after the 4th time your battery is fully optimized Enjoy, Continue with step 7"

My battery doesn't get stuck at all. It was at 88%. Now it's increasing without charger. Does that mean it's at full potential? And also, since I can still "charge" it after my 5th cycle, does that also mean my phone is fully optimised?
[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
Yes..

I don't know why.. perhaps it's different hardware or charge monitors in some instances it just does not stop charging, in some instances... it does.

Mine now on WB 2.3 does this where as WB 2.2 did not.
[XPERIA X10 General] NET1028:
Ok, thanks for answer, I have to say that woks 100% now I have my 3g, automatic sync( gmail, Facebook, whats up) on all day and I have 46 hrs and 25% battery, I think it is a good performance, just another question, once the batt its fully optimized, have to let the phone run down the battery and start charging asap, or can i charge it before it turns off?

thanks in advance
[XPERIA X10 General] twowheeler:
But you can't see exact percentages when the phone isn't switched on can you?

only a grey charging icon.

But i really think this will work :)

charging mine right now
[XPERIA X10 General] zhalim:
Not good for battery?

As far as i know x10 uses lithium polymer battery. I've read it at battery university website

that discharging it to 0% or lower than 20% will affect the battery life. Any idea if it is true?
[XPERIA X10 General] OmegaRED^:
Yes.. but that is why batteries come with a limiter to stop it going bellow the 3% limits. And the life is mostly effected if left in that state for long periods.

Hench why i say charge it A.S.A.P
[XPERIA X10 General] twowheeler:
calibrating in WB v5.0

If i put in the charger cable in WB v5.0 my x10 automatically starts up instead of only showing the charging icon.

Can this be an isseu when i calibrate my battery the way described in here?

If the way he was talking to someone looking for help is to be considered straight forward I see no reason to not consider the way I was talking to an ignorant child as being straight forward.

Again this its the q a section. It's to be expected that people don't know what they are doing here. That includes not really knowing how to use a forum. Just because we are typing doesn't mean we should be talking to people in ways that would probably result in a couple missing teeth in reality.

There was many other ways to let him know. You acted just the same as he did.

I'm not saying you're not right about a few things (like the Q&A part) but all you brought here is flaming when the OP was looking for help.

You could've just rephrase Trusselo if you felt it was really needed w/o bringing any kind of insulting/flaming.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] speedbreaker:
does having the phone rooted prevent t mobile from blocking the built in tethering feature and allow us to use it without paying the 15$ a month fee and use it for free?

a friend of mines has a unrooted mytouch 4g and t mobile blocked off his built in tethering feature so he won't tether without paying the 15$ a month fee, so im just curious about this!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iamlilysdad:
Use at your own risk. Worst I've heard happen is that tethering gets blocked until you add it to your plan. I've used it sparingly and had no issues or warnings.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ScooterG:
I use it a lot...for browsing/email/attachments...no streaming/torrents or home use. Never a problem in the past 1.5 years
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jimbo831:
From my experience, root doesn't really matter. I have used my G2x to tether since I got it and before I rooted it without a problem. They didn't seem to hard code any checks for a tethering plan into the OS on this phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EmceeGeek:
I use the feature all the time, but of course I have unlimited data. All you have to worry about is going over 5gb of data, or they'll throttle you, but you know... theres a quick FIX for that as well. ;D

I've used my NexusOne numerous times on business trips instead of paying for wifi access at hotels and airports. Never had a problem.

Now that I've got my G2x, the first thing I did was connected it to my laptop to test tethering. It worked fine. I used the built in feature, not an app. No block, no msg explaining I have to add a service. My advice, just hook it up and do it, in home, no traveling and it'll prove itself.

the thread says vol. down, HOME and power. is that what you did?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] milk242:
I believe it pops up the stock recovery menu and goes into verbose mode while the phone is doing a factory reset. The stock recovery menu is useless since you can't actually select anything.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
volume down and power will hard reset if you font flash nvflash.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] turbo_k:
Didn't read thoroughly, my bad. its without the HOME key. I don't think the capacitive keys work when the phone is off lol.

If planning to do so, backup prior! Otherwise it shouldnt be necessary...don't do what you don't know your doing just cuz everyone else is doing it lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] guitargler:
Vol. Down and Power gives me a screen that says "S/W Upgrade Please wait while upgrading..." And it never does anything. I had gotten a boot loop (hadn't even considered rooting yet) so I pulled the battery and booted up, I guess my finger had been on volume down. Still does that, and it never changes. Just stays like that. If I pull the battery, I get a boot loop again. What the hell D: Should I call up customer care?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rukawa2k:
It will force the phone to shut down. I did it couple times when my lock screen froze.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Simply holding power will force the phone to shut down.

Power and volume down format on stock or recovery if nvflashed

I don't think home is necessary or used at all.
