Yes my method did not advocate draining to 0% multiple times. Only once as regular calibration routine
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
1% - 0%: how would you be able to tell the difference if your argument is that the indicator reading is wrong?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Magpir:
scroll up and read my first post.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Magpir:
I am on my 3rd routine doing steps 3) and 4) . The battery is holding great.
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
mine is holding great without that. Guess I am just plain lucky...
[Windows Phone 7 General] ScottSUmmers:
Wow that's, quite a lot of times.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Magpir:
the battery is holding great now..
[Windows Phone 7 General] nok_fusion:
so the tricks work?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Kpyto:
My HD7 + Mango 7661 = extremely fast battery drain.

HD7 is brand new (few weeks). No 3G, no Data (!), no locations - HD7 works 12-14 hours from 100 to 1%. (info from Battery Saver in Mango)
[Windows Phone 7 General] ms79723:
Well, if you have an extended battery..this is a waste. Just charge to 100% and then once you take it off the charger, reboot. Or reboot on the charger and it'll fix it up all up. These phones can properly charge extended batteries, just can't read them right. So once you charge it overnight, or to 100%, gotta reset that reading with a reboot.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Magpir:
i had the same problem and since following this steps , i corrected it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Kpyto:
:( No result, still fast battery drain.
[Windows Phone 7 General] minori_aoi:
whoa that's pretty fast.

My Focus already unplugged for 17 hours and still have 70% remaining.

I only use 2G though (I don't get faster speed by using 3G, it's s*cks living in 3rd world country). Push, Data, and Location are enabled.

Maybe it's only happened on HTC device?
[Windows Phone 7 General] markd66:
Here's how I think I have reset the battery indicator on my Trophy. Prior to doing this, with Mango I was seeing battery down to 10-15% by mid evening (my day starts at about 6.30am with the phone fully charged). My Nodo battery life was better, by at least 25%

Basically what I did was charge the phone to 100%, remove it from the charger and reboot it. First time I did this the battery was down to 89% after about 5 minutes. So back on the charger, up to 100% and reboot again. This time the drop was to 93%. After 5 top up charges the drop was to 98% after 5 minutes, and I figured that was good enough. Now I did this last Thursday and since then my worst mid-evening figure has been 52%. No significant changes in daily usage pattern. I still leave the phone on charge overnight so I start with 100% in the morning.

I can't explain why this seems to have worked (I have a theory but no facts to back it up), nor can I be sure that the effect will last. I'm picking up a spare phone tomorrow so hopefully will be able to do a full drain test on the Trophy to see if it really does now have the 30 hour battery life that the Battery Saver screen claims.
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
I agree with ms79723 who basically reiterates my previous post. All you are doing is stressing the battery and reduce lifetime in the long run. You may see "better" battery behavior short term.

cheers
[Windows Phone 7 General] ScottSUmmers:
My htc pro 7 works great as is. Like I said I calibrated one and not the other and they both perform the same.

Could actually just be a battery issue overall. If he's been charging it down past 20% or after the phone shuts itself off frequently in the past that may have affected the cycles detrimentally.

I've done that before with my old school Li-ion powerbook batteries years back and they started going through the juice like maybe a year and half in. That's especially telling considering that Li-ion batteries ideally should last about 5 years before turning to crap.

Then again if a one time calibration could help.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nok_fusion:
I do the trick,and i Can Tell that it Works

now the battery Just run fine :)

HTC 7 Mozart
[Windows Phone 7 General] Magpir:
the trick may work first time for some, others may need to repeat the last 2 procudres
[Windows Phone 7 General] nok_fusion:
but u have to tell people that this trick is only when a new update come out to calibrate the sensors
[Windows Phone 7 General] idle_mind:
I have the HTC surround and after the Mango update last week the battery life on my phone has decreased. Prior to the update the phone would go about a day and a half before needing a recharge. Post Mango update the phone needs to be recharged before a full day has gone by. I haven't been doing anything different with the phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] purezerg:
i'm kinda at the opposite with my battery.

I have a mugen 3900?mah batt. mine is a case of battery calibration also, but a different scenario, official mango update, non beta.

sunday night, i'll charge it for almost 12 hours.

monday morning 9am i unplug it.

monday 11pm, it states i left 14%

tuesday morning, it states i left 7%

tuesday night, it still states i left 7%

wed morning, it STILL states i left 7%

wed night, 7%

thursday morning, 5%

thursday 4pm ish? the phone shuts off.

LOL i tried discharging it till completely drained a few times. unlike HD2, I cant power it on again when it first auto shuts off.

I cant do another old trick of keep trying to power it on. when it shuts off the first time, it wont power on again, until i charge it for at least 15 mins.

i havent try the 50% trick. will update when i got to completely discharge it.

[Dell Streak 7] fliberdygibits:
So I have a dell streak on a T-Mobile pre-paid mobile broadband plan. The device/account is assigned a phone number which my first guess tells me is simply required to connect to the network in any capacity. I'd like to know if there is someway to use this number for SMS either via extra service thru T-Mobile or thru some form of tweaking/hacking/moding/editing/praying....... But the few T-Mobile reps I've spoken to don't have a clue. The answers I've gotten range from "I think you can add text messaging" to "You definately can't maybe I think not do that sort of".

Is it good for anything?

Can I MAKE it be good for anything?

Is there somewhere to maybe tie it into my google voice number in a way I can use ANY SMS app?

Is there like an "SMS for non-phones 101" somewhere?

Thanks.
[Dell Streak 7] Z4nd4r:
You can text from it. Use the native texting app and it'll send/receive fine (I believe it's MMS). T-Mobile has unlimited texting on their data plan, so you already ought to be set up for it.
[Dell Streak 7] fliberdygibits:
Thank you! I guess I'm going to have to contact Tmobile as I can neither send nor receive in this fashion.

Thanks again

that should force the script to run.

i forgot, i use greendroid 2.0 and 666 infernal kernel
[GT540 Optimus General] eoghan2t7:
god thats odd what rom are you using mur4iks,joes or one of the softmod GB
[GT540 Optimus General] bataya:
greendroid 2.0 and 666 infernal kernel

this kernel hava init.d suport... i think.
[GT540 Optimus General] eoghan2t7:
it should support swap ok because init.d folder belongs to busybox which the ROM has i would say for you to get the best from your phone is to upgrade to a gingerbread rom preferably CM7 as it supports swap straight fro boot and it also allow V6 SuperCharger to run properly i can help with a 2.1 rom because i only had 2.1 on my phone for 30seconds before flashing a 2.2 CM6 rom.
[GT540 Optimus General] bataya:
i use CM7 before (mur4iks M6 was last i try), but every day there was some little bug, and i have big problem with battery, gps... so i went back to 2.1.

tnx for try helping me. :)

am running 1.27.XXXX

i hope for 1.34.XXXX from vodafon germany...

so my question is ... will i be able to keep my data and apps when this update comes ?

another question is when root comes before vodafon releases the update and a flash a custom rom ... maybe 1.34.XXX will i be able to keep my data too ??

or do i have to reinstall everything (all apps) ????

its pretty stupid to install everything now and when it comes to root and i install meybe the mdj rom for exaple to reinstall everything :-/

thanks
[HTC Sensation] Switcherd:
when you'll flash the leaked ruu you'll lose everything.

when you update ota you'll keep all your apps.

also, you can back-up your apps with your google account.

then after flashing a new rom, when you sign in with your google account again, you can chose to restore all your downloaded apps at once. (atleast, the ones you downloaded from the market)

Need some advice if that is okay, is anybody else experiencing an SMS Limit? I can write up to three sms then it converts it to MMS which is very annoying because before (desire), i could write 7 or more.

I did search and know there is mod but is there another way, as in, an option?

Im on orange and am using lite'ning rom 1.5

My second question is that any time i try to download anything within the browser (file, apk, video, etc) it always fails. No matter what.

I'm really confused and have looked in the settings but its puzzling me.

If anybody could shed some light, that would be great

Hello!

Unfortunately I'm not allowed to post into the right forum "Android Apps and Games", since this is my first post here on xda-developers.

I have a question according to the Simi-Folder app, which is great by the way.

Is it possible to create a shortcut to a file which I use every day?

Or is it possible to create a shortcut to a directory and place it on the homescreen? I then could create a file collection in a special folder and place it in my homescreen or even on my dockbar...

Thanks in advance!
