did your backup disappear or does it not work? mine didnt work and it somehow got itself to work after using the method tokuro said in the first page.. as a developer you have to send in a ticket with the info in this thread http://forums.create.msdn.com/forums/t/85786.aspx

i sent one in a few days ago but they never replied back.. from reading through many forums i have a feeling there are a lot more people out there with lost backups..

Has anyone heard back from Microsoft regarding this issues. I emailed them last week and and they haven't gotten back to me yet. Really curious to see what they do.

I am curious as well. Especially since I HAD a copy of my backup... But then my hard drive died :( guess I should of had it in the cloud!
[Android Software Development] rootfan:
Now I know this is a ridicilous idea as it defeats the whole purpose, but would it be possible to port gingerbread to xoom, or is there already a gingerbread rom that would work. The bootloader was unlocked in under two hours so could cyanogenmod be ported like it has been to the nook color. I absolutely love honeycomb, and think it is superior to gingerbread, but seeing it on the xoom would only further its abilities. If any developer would be up to the worthless but awesome challenge, or simply has an intriguing idea, please reply.;)
[Android Software Development] gh123man:
well i cant say i know much about porting. but all of these honeycomb tablets (correct me if im wrong) are directly based on the ventana development kit. or at least extremely similar. so. my advice is start here. there are some 2.2 + 2.3 builds to play with.

[Android Software Development] rootfan:
I will take a look in a while, and if I make any progress, then I will post back.

haha, i will have to make sure to get rid of boot.bin. Not really in the mood for flashing a new bootloader.

All the needed image files are here.
[Android Software Development] rootfan:
Wow, this tegra development kit is absolutely amazing. It includes all the drivers and software for the nvidia tegra 2 platform. I am going to play with this software, and see what I can do. I'm not very patient, so do not expect anything but if I ever get anything working I will post back. Kind of interesting that nvida would release froyo and gingerbread builds for a platform that is as you said almost identical to the xoom,gtab, and other "honeycomb" tabs.Well, hopefuly honeycomb aosp will be released eventualy. Anyways thanks for the link.

Thanked ya:D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] raymir:
Hi everyone, I am looking for something similar to PDANET. It lets you connect your phone to your computer and allow internet access. I used it for few days and it worked great but now it doesnt work. i hear some people paid the 15 bucks online to get it but they still having issues... I would love to get something similar or maybe better even if i have to buy the app.. i really need internet on the road and i dont want to pay the 50 bucks per month to my cell phone carrier.. thanks in advanced
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sageDieu:
Check out EasyTether. They have a lite and full version, full is ten bucks. In my experience it works much better than PDAnet.

[HTC Sensation] 90teggy:
I don't understand why somedays my phone and battery will last all day plus some. Then other days battery is worthless (only 9hrs or so) . My routine is the same day to day. I restart my phone every morning when I pull it off the charger. I realize apps and sync etc have affects on battery life. I'm not a newb. Example today phone came off charger 7am, it is now 10:30pm and I have 42% left. This happens one or two days a week. Other days by 6pm I need a charger. Never had a "moody" battery (phone).
[HTC Sensation] jerrylzy:
I think your usage is different..Although you think you always do the same thing but actually don't..I have the same experience..I was curious for the first time but later i found that day i disable my data and phone works on gsm not wcdma.Also may be different day different apps launched:)
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
Do you notice any difference on how often the device is awake? That is what makes the difference from what I've noticed.
[HTC Sensation] ctscloud:
From my experience, the battery life does vary as you mentioned. The best way to test is to turn off sync to minimize the amount of battery drain variation. This might tell you if the battery is consistently following along with your issue. Also turn WiFi off if possible. Hope this helps.
[HTC Sensation] zoth:
The thing is you also have to keep tabs of the apps that you use, most of them BTW don't close/exit completely. (Also abattery drain)
[HTC Sensation] Sdobron:
The battery stats are the problem. Seem inconsistent.
[HTC Sensation] caliber177:
How about the possibility that you're in different locations from day to day, and some hours of the day, your signal may be poor, making the phone look for a better signal, draining battery?
[HTC Sensation] medoo313:
My Best Guess is radio modem SUX
[HTC Sensation] reckoner_85:
This is true. one day I woke up to find my battery completely drained although it was supposed to be idling, I removed a couple of apps I installed the day before that I thought was the culprit and it didn't happen again.
[HTC Sensation] n1ghtl1fe:
download WatchDog its an app that watches your other apps for insane amounts of memory use and battery drain. Should find the culprit app thats causing this random drain

link to app: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.zomut.watchdoglite&feature=search_result

a lot of people dont believe in task killers cause they truley arent needed and to the normal user can cause more harm then good but i like the fact knowing if im not using it, its not running.
[HTC Sensation] Hamsn:
So I agree with the variation, like the poster 90teggy, even I've been on the same routine, but the battery acts differently.
[HTC Sensation] zim2dive:
+1

also explains why person A and B have very different results for the "same usage"... where they live/work etc will have different signal strength. I am lucky, I have pretty good signal both at work and home, so my phone doesn't have to churn thru as much battery.
[HTC Sensation] iGoOsE76:
Get yourself a Anker battery and you your problem with fast draining will be over.. :D
[HTC Sensation] Hamsn:
Check this:

I realized that battery drains faster when carried in pocket or somewhat is dynamic state. When I keep my phone flat on a surface, it will stay there hours together without a single % drop in battery.

Only if I carry along, move it, etc. the battery seems to drain.

Just try to observe this and confirm it to me.
[HTC Sensation] stuart0001:
As you move around it's probably seeing & trying to lock on to different transmitters which can cause increased drain.
[HTC Sensation] Hamsn:
Different transmitters?

No, its just when its in Pocket, either you sit or stand, drain will be considerable.

Same you keep it on a flat surface, it stays at the same %
[HTC Sensation] bcpk:
My Sensation gets great battery life most of the time, but in relation to your comment about putting it in your pocket - sometimes when I walk around with my Sensation in the pocket of some shorts (where it can swing around a bit more than in jeans) the next time I take it out of my pocket it's very hot and seems to have frozen up or be in some kind of reboot loop. This has happened to me five or six times ... with different pairs of shorts :P
[HTC Sensation] Fr3dtheR3d:
Get the battery pack for Htc Evo, root your phone and delete batterystat.bin. Worked for me.
[HTC Sensation] stuart0001:
The WiFi & mobile signals will be weaker when in your pocket because your body will block them a bit. That will increase drain but to what extent is debatable
[HTC Sensation] vsandvs:
On my stock Sensation battery drain on idle with display off is 200mA average.

Barely lasts a day on full charge with light use.

On my HTC HD2, which is rooted with Android rom installed, drain on idle is around 40mA average. It can last two days in idle and easily all day with light use.

Something is draining Sensation battery hard. Can't find what. No matter if phone sits stationary or moving in my belt pouch.

I suspect some TMos apps running in background.
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
I think that everyone has this battery drain problem. I have been unable to track down a process or app that is doing this. Its impossible to measure each app or process' current use.

I am willing to bet its something wrong with the software. Something that HTC rushed. I wish I had the resources to persuade some of the talented devs here to look into for us. ;-)

[HTC Sensation] gr3yh0und:
Guys I think I know the problem with this stupid battery drain. It's the HTC Sense itself.

I bet if we get a vanilla android or AOSP ROM or CM7. We can get better battery life same as Galaxy S2. For those who wants a better battery life. I must say stick to stock kernel since. Most custom kernel are OC and hot mostly eating up your battery. And also try Senseless ROM, Since it remove sense stuff. Nice tweaking and improvement. I must say its a good rom if your concern with your battery.

4 Hours of Playing games, wifi, screen on-off, FB, Camera, Video.

I still got like 88-90% since I left home and walk around the mall.

And don't forget to calibrate your battery.
[HTC Sensation] ajay83:
I have battery glitch too on my new sensation.

I'm running leedroid with his latest kernel. Did full wipe, full charge, clear batt stats etc...

In the morning I unplug phone at 100% & use it heavily for a few hours.

It still says 100% 3-4hrs later although I know I hammered it. THEN ill reboot & ill be on 80-70% battery life???

Done that 2days straight now. And yesterday I charged from 70% up to 80% and then rebooted & it told me I had 96%?????

Then it started discharging normally, but again same scenario today.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
Recently had a similar problem. Battery would drain 50% or more idling overnight. Checked settings and discovered under wifi Advanced > Best Wifi Performance was checked. Unchecked it and last night burned only 1% per hour. Huge difference. The kicker is I don't know how that got checked as I've always kept it off, and it's not the easiest setting to get to. Not sure if something resets it, but if you're getting unusual high drain it's worth checking.
[HTC Sensation] tmosda:
I see tmo WiFi calling and my account running in watchdog and taking half a percent cpu each.

I don't use WiFi calling and have it turned off but the process keeps running.

Anyone know how to permanently stop it.
[HTC Sensation] dr.m0x:
Yep its erratic for me too. 100% until lunch find then drops rapidly to 70% by end of working day. Don't really use my phone at work either. In the same usage scenario my Desire HD running Cyanogenmod would drop to 90% at end of work day. I'm almost tempted to switch back to it for a couple of weeks until this phone gets better, if it weren't for the fact the speaker the Sensation, as crappy as it is, still sounds much louder than the DHD. I'm pretty sure its the same speaker but the inability if the DHD case to vibrate due to being solid aluminum pretty much borks it.

[HTC Sensation] peugeot206wrc:
I think the answer is heat. Li-Ion battery drains very fast if it's warm. And we all know Sensation goes warm very fast.
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
Heat doesnt cause the phone to draw more current...Some app or process does. We need to track down what random process is running and keeping our phone awake when it should be asleep. There is no excuse for a phone using 200mA/Hr when the phone is sleeping.

Another reason to flash a ROM that removes Sense from the phone...I believe CM7 will, so I will wait for them.

[HTC Sensation] klutch:
Well.i had a similar issue wit stock batt eas draining quick but then i broght the $20 chichitec n was going perfect now i was reading something bout juice defender seem worth for me.wat it does.when ur phone gose on lock screen it auto shuts down SYNC,WiFi and 4G but u still get ur calls n text once u opend it automaticly gose bak on but this really save me battery life m my phone rooted with stock room if i unplug the phone at 8am phone starts foyong around 11pm but a am still waiting for CM7 and i know with CM its going to inprove more
[HTC Sensation] manuelkuhs:
The discussion at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=16580910 will show that there are two groups of stock Sensation - those with excellent, and those with poor battery life.

As you will see in my last 3 posts on the last page of that discussion, I suspect strongly the reason behind this is that some HTC Sensation phones are faulty in that they consume far too much battery juice in sleep mode.

This is also the (tentative) conclusion of TechRadar's review:

[HTC Sensation] hak1mboo:
Hi all,

I have also the similar problem with my HTC Sensation.

Last time I charged it to 100% and went sleep. I wake up morning and I see that I've got only 5% battery left. (no apps was running, no wifi, nothing, only system).

I've noticed that the problem of drain is SIM Card. If you disconnect your simcard there is no drain. It's strange because it happens sometimes (more or less after every second charge), and if I travel a car a lot. I suppose that phone is trying non stop to check the signal and if phone is laying in pocket or in bag it drains battery.

I've heard rumors that if you change SIM card to newest one, it could help. Next week I will try to get new SIM Card (duplicate) and check if this will work. If not I will sent my phone to vendor on guarantee, because phone with 7H on battery (without any usage) is simply bull****.

Best regards

Pawel
[HTC Sensation] VictorNYC:
I read that turning off Pocket Mode (Proximity Sensor) improves battery life but i never felt the difference personally … But i did purchased a Anker 1900 mAh battery for like 15 Dollars on Amazon and with a ARHD 3.6.9 rom i get a consistent 28 hour plus of use...
[HTC Sensation] hak1mboo:
I think this is not the problem.

Look at my today statistics from battery I've connected it later yesterday to charge and about 3AM switched off to see if it will drain.

I woke up about 7:20 and see there is only left 16% of battery.

[HTC Sensation] Gödel:
I had the same problem with my Sensation, it happened once in a week approximately.

It turned very hot and drained empty by 6pm or so.

I have flashed Android Revolution HD now, it seems to have improved it. The battery indicator at the top of the screen is more reliable now (half full actually means half full, before it mentioned: you better find a charger or I'll die soon).

I'm using this ROM for 5 days now.
[HTC Sensation] dest4b:
i recognized a wide range of battery life .. depending on roms.

Most i get from miui hyper-non-sense ( bricked and Faux kernel )and virtuous roms. undervolting and 1000mhz. With all of them i had 1-2 days.

with some other roms and with HTC RUU i get 12hrs - one day. only...
[HTC Sensation] oscarba:
There are many reasons for the battery to drain differently like email volume, days that you are away from cel signal, there are some days that you have a lot of meetings and to touch your phone as much and dont realize it.

[HTC Sensation] tritran18518:
i had same battery drain problem like you before. it's looked like either your phone or currently rom you are running has " wake" issue when phone is in sleep mode. I don't know what is the cause . i even tried to disable auto sync/ put my phone under airplane mode/ no OC.. ..... but the problem was still there. I also tried many different roms (sense 3.0, sense 3.5, ICS, senless ICS..), still no go. FYI, before install any customs rom, my phone is fully charged, i always clean wipe/factory data reset-wipe cache- wipe davik cache- format system, then using the phone till battery is empty - recharged... Luckily,i found this rom and i decided to give a try : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1371892

with bricked kernel

Then my problem is solved. For a normal result, you should get about -9 mA => -23mA ( this is the best result i can achieve from my phone) .

I have an unlocked AT&T Atrix running on another carrier (GCI of Alaska) that I rooted with WeaselyBreak (yes, that is a Harry Potter joke, I actually used GingerBreak). I have been trying to do an OTA upgrade to GB with no luck. I have not done anything with my bootloader. I have cleared the Superuser App data before the attempts as well as stopping it before one attempt. I went into Titanium Backup and unfroze all of my bloatware as well. Still no luck. I have downloaded the update four times now and everytime it gets ~25% through the unpacking screen before it changes to "Danger Will Robinson!!" android screen. And I have to reboot to a "Update Failed!" message.

Any ideas?
