To piggy back on what bhazzard said, when buying the Hyperion battery be prepared to get dropped calls and no 4g with the provided battery door. It's garbage and a Seidio extended battery door should be purchased to remedy the issue.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] boristhebladexx:
i have the hyperion 1500mah """""""""slim extended""""""""" batteries and they've never given me any trouble, just a little less juice than stock
[Thunderbolt Accessories] bthomp21:
I just bought the htc extended battery today and I cant figure out why I didnt buy it before. I have had it off the charger for 7+ hours and its at 80% with light-moderate usage. i am impressed for 38 bucks.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ilogik:
Well 2 days into it and it was kind of a waste of $8.95. Battery claims to be 3500mah but the phone reports it as 1350 mah, even though the battery is almost 3 times as thick as the stock one.

It only lasts 12 hours in 4G area with minor usage, I would get 7 hours out of the stock one. The battery cover has metal connectors for all the antennas and is made of the same material as the back of the phone but the color is slightly lighter.

So unless you want a second spare battery for cheap I would not recommend this.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Nihilife:
You wouldn't happen to have a link for the door alone, would you? I've tried to find a Seidio door without the battery and have had no luck.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] SamOliver:
I bought one for $10 on Amazon. If you buy one just make sure it has the metal contacts on the cover so you don't lose reception. This is the one I bought and it's legit, it'll give you double the life.

[Thunderbolt Accessories] mkopp88:
I have the same problem with my trexcell 3500 battery. When I put the HTC extended battery in it reads the correct size.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] xXJay_RXx:
Same happened to me. I bought a cheap $9 extended 2750 battery but Battery Monitor only read it as 1350. So much bulk for very little production out of this battery -__-
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ilogik:
Eh, how do I set it myself?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] bhazard451:
Battery monitor doesn't read generic batteries correctly. It also reports 1350 on my generic, but it lasts just as long as my official htc extended.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] awdwhip:
I don't know. I tried looking for one myself and was unsuccessful. I just received my Hyperion battery and it came with half of a charge and my battery widget read the battery at 2750mah. Pretty good for 20 to your door if you ask me. I highly suggest people steer clear of those other knock off batteries that are 10 bucks. Plus, the battery door I received snapped on just fine and my 4G signal is rock solid with no dropped calls so far. Just my .02 ;)

I can't currently post up links right now as my post count isn't high enough, otherwise I'd give you the link to a thread I started over on driod forum that contains good info on the extended Hyperion battery.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] bthomp21:
yes, now i can go a day + without a charge. its great and how the phone should have been from day 1. it would have made happier customers and a lot of people would have kept the phone...
[Thunderbolt Accessories] bthomp21:
the bulkiness has not affected me, it actually makes a rest for my finger to "hold" the phone better. i seriously recommend the HTC oem extended battery.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] stewlounse:
damn post count..that's too bad!

thanks for the info on the batteries.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] captainstarbucs:
I love my extended battery
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Fertilizer:
Just got the 3500mah battery 2 weeks ago the biggest mistake I ever made was waiting 8 months yo get one I can go all day
[Thunderbolt Accessories] kakistocrat:
Definitely buy it

I bought the 3500mAh Hyperion for the Droid Charge on Amazon (I think it's the same battery, just different case), been using it for a couple months, it is well worth it. It lasts easily twice as long as the stock one, and (imho) it makes the phone easier to hold/use one-handed. My only problem is the battery cover that comes with it is kind of cheap, but it snaps perfectly into the phone. I recently calibrated the battery by doing a bump charge and then wiping "batterystats.bin" and the phone lasted 21.5 hours of heavyheavyheavy use. Well worth the $20.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] TauxiC:
OMG, I can't believe the size of that 4500mah thing!

I enjoy my 2750mah htc battery, but the first one died after about 4 months. Fortunately, took it into the Verizon store and they replaced it for free as per the warranty, no questions asked. I also have a "3500" mah battery that I got off eBay for about $10. Since of course its crappy, it really only performs for about as long as what I would expect a 2100-2200 or so battery to last, but still better than stock, and it serves as a good backup battery.

Hi fiends, I'm facing a serious problem with my USB tethering. The connection is getting lost frequently even though the symbol for the usb tethering still remains. To regain my connection, I have to first uncheck (OFF) and then check (ON) the tethering option.

It is not a fault of the service provider because I checked it with my w810i.

I am using 2.2.2 v10d and my pc is running on win XP.

Is that XP's problem or is it my phone's firmware's problem or some other problem ..???????

[HTC Inspire 4G] FusionTechFTS:
I have had an issue of my contacts not keeping the default action. I will set it then the phone soon forgets it. Anyone else having this issue?
[HTC Inspire 4G] scotch`bonnet:
hey, had the same issue on my sensation.

it seems to lose the default action everytime the google-contact gets synced. for contacts on the device ONLY, no problem, default actions stay in place. but unfortunately just only as long as no google contact is linked with the contact (pretty useless though).

as i did not want to lose the sync-feature, i did some research and found out the following:

- go to google.com/contacts

- select your contacts you want to keep the default actions (ok, i know, the "favorite" seems kinda useless with this workaround)

- move them into the group "starred in Android"

- sync again on your mobile

- maybe you have to set the default action again

please let me know, if this did the trick for you!

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iluvmonkeys2:
Used NVflash last night to install CM. Almost immediately there were problems. I was able to boot in CM recovery only once. After that, I could only get to apx mode. Tried to flash again this morning using NVflash and now my tablet won't connect to the PC at all even in apx. Can anyone help? I can't even get the PC to read the tablet at all so I can't transfer files or anything.

EDIT: Finally got into CM Recovery. Did a factory wipe and still can't connect to my PC. Please help!!!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K J Rad:
Some severe APX loop problems can look like a completely dead tablet. The screen might not light up at all but you might still be in APX mode. Check to see if your charge light comes on when it's plugged in. If that works then hook it up to your computer and check to see if it's in APX. If it's not press the power key for 2-3 seconds and check it again. You might find that it's just being stubborn.
[HTC Sensation] smashpunks:
Mine is always at about 101 degrees just surfing etc? is this normal? or is it too hott? games get to about 110 or whatever. Charging about 104 degrees.

Also, I noticed a bubble under the battery on the phone. Its just like the sticker didnt stick and made a bubble. I basically flattened it down, but it dont look perfect, but should I be worried about that?

Reason Im asking is phone feels warm and battery is draining. Damn we really need to get rid of this BLOOOAT.
[HTC Sensation] Savage1701:
I found a primary culprit to be screen brightness. I'm not saying WiFi and processor intensive apps won't do it, or GPS, but I have had to settle for about 40% screen brightness or I get heat and a battery that drains really fast.
[HTC Sensation] bobbymokie:
Barely gets warm, might be my own heat from my hands. Using wifi with screen brightness low. Does get a little warmer charging, nowhere near hot
[HTC Sensation] timmiii:
My Phone too gets warm during use espcially using GPS while driving and charging. 45degC ~ 113degF was the max so far.
[HTC Sensation] Savage1701:
Screen brightness seems to have an effect on warmth of case, for sure, as well as battery life, obviously.

I think mine gets the hottest when I am surfing on an adapter, using WiFi, and GPS. That's only logical.

I'm thinking T-Mobile pushed something to my phone over the last couple of weeks though since it does not get as hot or blow through the battery as fast, and they also solved a corrupted video issue as well.
[HTC Sensation] Ozam:
What is up the the list of contacts when using the phone or messaging? I can manage under Contacts|settings|view exactly what contacts I want to see; however, when using the phone or messaging, the Sensation presents EVERY contact without a way to adjust. In my situation I use Exchange Activesync to gather my work emails, and despite unchecking sync contacts, they all show up in my phone list.......who the heck wants to sort through a thousand contacts to make a phone call. Thoughts or ideas?
[HTC Sensation] valleyman83:
I have some similar problem. I sync with both Exchange Activesync and Google/Gmail and some of my contacts have an entry in both. In my lists of contacts they're perfectly coupled and reduced to one entry, but in the messaging app the contacts show up double again.

I already had contact with HTC Benelux, but their first 'solution' was to remove one of the entries manually. But that's no option for me. I replied to them, but they have not reacted yet.

Strange thing is with the mail app everything is ok.
[HTC Sensation] gbzbar:
To get rid of this in messaging, there are 3 options you need to turn off.

Go to messaging.... settings... general... and turn off "Show sent message history", "Show call history" and "show email address". Or a combination of the three if you'd like.

In contacts, you should check the option in settings that says "Only with phone number". As long as your email contacts don't have phone numbers, they won't show up in the contacts list.

I hope I'm understanding your issues and that this information helps.

This is for my partner due a free upgrade on orange network she's looking at the HTC range or is there better ? Currently she has a Samsung Galaxy.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bednar1988:
Hello guys,

I rooted my WF with AlpharevX, I flashed then CM7 nightly build and yesterday CM7.1 RC1. Afterwards I realised that my GPS doesn't work. I wanted to reflash my radio, I have CMW 3xx, so it is not possible to flash it from recovery. I wanted to boot to recovery directly from ROM Manager, where I have 2.5.0.7, but when it reboots I receive only boot image, when I hit the power button I land in Recovery menu but it says, that it is 3xx version. I tried to reflash radio from there but of course I receive error message.

Have you any ideas, why it is like that?

I think, I could try to convert radio with amend2edify and then try to flash it from recovery, have someone tried this?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
Reinstall CWM 2.x from ROM Manager. Someone tried to convert the radio file using Amend2Edify, and it didn't work.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bx19:
Will help in booting to 2.x recovery.

Have u flashed 2.5.0.7 recovery from rom manager. If yes, it will be present in sdcard /clockworkmod/ downloads folder.

First boot into 3.x recovery then install zip from sdcard. Then choose zip from sdcard and selected the path and file. Then it gives 2.x recovery on the fly. And remember radio flashing is sensitive.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bednar1988:
thx for answers:)

2.5.0.7 is present in sd/clockworkmod/downloads, so I try to flash it from recovery and then reflash radio. I know it is sensitive, but it seems that I don't have any other choice. I will reflash the same version that I have, so it shouldn't be harmful. then I will go back to newer CWM Version

done, GPS works:)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] notebookgrail:
I am completely new to the WP7 API calls which involve adding the asmx file as service reference. But, i am having a problem with the API calls that are called asynchronously via this method (SOAP requests).

I referenced a ASMX file that's in the cloud and called an async API. I got the below error message.

========

The HTTP request to '.....asmx' has exceeded the allotted timeout of 00:01:00. The time allotted to this operation may have been a portion of a longer timeout. ---> System.Net.WebException: The operation has timed out.

========

When googled this message, many were pointing to timeout value set in the ServiceReferences.ClientConfig file that gets created when adding a service reference. So, i modified the file to increase the timeout to 10 min from 1 min.

So now, the API calls take 252 seconds to complete. That's too long, even if its async. If i call the same API synchronously via HTTP, it is instant.

So i dug deep and did a wireshark trace. What i found was the async calls uses the UDP protocol and it starts receving the response right away. But it receives in 60 bytes increment. So to receive the full data, it takes 252 seconds.

Now my question to you folks is, is there a way to increase the data buffer size for the UDP. Or is this a limitation or feature of WP7/VS.net?

Note: I cannot the call the API synchronously due to the vendor exposing the API's only as asmx reference.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] notebookgrail:
Found the problem. The problem is IPV6 and SOAP using asmx doesn't go well. Interestingly, the code works in WP7 Device without the timeout. It doesn't work in the Emulator in PC's that have IPV6 enabled.

In case you folks run into the same problem, disable Teredo in your PC.

Open Command Prompt and type the following:

netsh

interface

teredo

set state disabled

To set it back to default again use:

set state default

[HTC EVO 3D] FlowingAway:
So I have phone finder enabled on my 3D. I'm synced to PUSH with my HTC Sense account on the 3D.

Log into HTCSense.com and click "find my phone" and it can't find it at this time. Now I am in airplane mode currently, but I'm using Wi-Fi and have GPS enabled. But maybe it needs the cell radio turned on as well. I'll have to try that out later.

Here's the part that I'm not too fond of. I tried the phone lock feature. It does work, but from the time I clicked "lock" on the website til the phone actually locked was about an HOUR. I would think since I have HTCSense set to push updates as they happen it should lock the phone pretty quickly, right? Or at least it should.

What if someone steals your phone? You rush to a computer to lock it, or erase everything and it takes an HOUR to do that? Why have push sync enabled if it takes that long? Someone could have all kinds of info pulled off your phone in the time it takes HTCSense to lock the thing! Am I missing something here?
