Interesting..... I've noticed the exact same thing the last few days. Normally when I'm at home and my phone is on wifi, I can go to sleep with the phone at around 95% and wake up in the morning and the phone is at around 91% or 92%. Wednesday I woke up and my phone was at 63%, I was shocked. I'm running Royal Ginger 2.1(I've been running it for some time now). So something has changed and I personally don't think it's the ROM. The suggestion about the official gingerbread update from tmobile seems like a pretty good assessment considering its been happening to a lot of people (rooted and non rooted) over the last week.

you can enable Wi-Fi after putting the phone in AP mode. And i have my A-GPS off and GPS radio off, and i'm still having the problem mentioned.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholasb:
did u try resetting the gps with an app? That seemed to be the ticket for me.

I'm currently running updated maps, market, and radio with so far, a normal battery life.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunndd:
I had the same battery drain problem for the past few days also. I saw an article on another site about recent battery drain problems for a different T-mobile phone. (i think it was the G2) A few ppl on there named a couple apps that they thought were causing it: the recent Google Maps update, the Market update, and the Google Plus app. So I uninstall the two updates and the Google+ app, let my phone die completely and charged it all the way, with the phone off, uninterrupted.

That was 19 hrs ago and I have 60% left and I've been browsing the web, with wifi on, and playing a few different games for most of the day. I don't know which one of those things fixed it, but I had to be one of them. Before this I was lucky to get through the work day with more than 20% left with little use. Hope this helps some of you fix this.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mcoddt:
I was having the same issue and clearing the gps state as mentioned above seems to have worked.

EDIT: This did not work. I was out in a gsm only area so my phone was running on 2g and as soon as I got back to HSPA+ area battery drain started happening again. Might be going to Verizon if this keeps up.

I don't think airplane mode disables GPS. I've used GPS with airplane mode on in roaming areas and it still works using Sygis Aura.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oberschutze:
The new update seems to have doubled my battery life. Google + sucks a lot of battery life so I removed it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1990dlp:
I don't use google+ and i've used both old and new markets with no problems I think it's google maps doing something with the gps so I'm charging my phone and clearing the gps and i'll let everyone know if it solved the problem for me.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JLuhmarty:
The absolute only thing that has worked for me so far is to either go into airplane mode or only use 2g networks. As the evidence continues to add up, this is seemingly out of the user control. Something is going on with the 3g/4g network and it's eating up many people's phones, period.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JLuhmarty:
I'd like to see this thread on xda keep going. As of today, most people are realizing that going to 2g networks only on their device stops the drainage and allows them to maintain functionality of their phone as opposed to going into airplane mode. I hope someone here has some connections with t-mobile and can make a phone call. This is not a user issue and until t-mobile acknowledges the severity of the drainages on their 3g/4g network, people are going to remain pissed and be looking for some serious compensation when this issue is fixed.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1990dlp:
I have to say after I left the house my phone was at 79% and 2 hours later it was still 79% it definitely seems to be the 3g/4g networks and 2g seems to have solved the problem. I don't know why 4g started to drain my battery last week but I'm hoping it is fixed soon. Thank you for the post.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JLuhmarty:
(Gregs over on tmonews.com said this

"My internal engineering source says that TMo IS aware of the issue and that a feature was activated on TMo's side that may have been the source of the problem.

TMo engineering is investigating the situation. I will hopefully hear back from my source as the situation progresses.'")

I have a contact inside TMo engineering.

I contacted him and received a reply: Essentially there was a feature activated in the tower or network that appears to be associated with the battery loss problem.

TMo is, obviously, aware of the problem and is investigating to narrow things down.

I don't have a solution at this point, other than locking the phone to 2G for data until you really need 3G data, but in my case that's been a huge help.

I also don't know when or how TMo intends to resolve the issue.

If I get more information I'll be glad to post it when I know more.

-Greg

^^^These are a couple of quotes from over on the t-mobile support forums. Sounds like some headway is being made with engineering and the issue is at least on the radar of some people who can actually do something about it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronin178:
Glad to hear they are aware of the issue....have been on 2g for a week now just to make it through the day. Reset/redownloaded my gps data and the next day my battery was doing solid again, only lost 20% after 12 hrs, so switched 2g off for the drive home from work and lost almost 45% in an hour...lame...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I'm in Vancouver as well and I have the same issue. I have gone back to stock and then to CM7 nightlies 144, VU, Royal Ginger, a couple other roms and cleared the gps state which I thought had fixed it but apparently not, uninstalled maps update and still my battery is draining like crazy. 2g is the only thing that is working for me as well. I called T-mobile this morning and they just said it's not our network it's your phone. WTF Tmobile!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crawler9:
I've been experiencing this insane drainage as well recently. I thought maybe my battery had become uncalibrated, so I attempted to recalibrate it using one of the calibration apps on the market. Which one are people on XDA usually referring to when they say to "use the app to calibrate your battery" anyway?

This battery life is unbearable and unacceptable. I truly hope T-Mobile remedies this issue in the near future.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
1.Charge to 100%

2.Goto battery calib app

3.Wait till the Volts says 421Xmv<-- X should be 0 or higher w/ max of 8 or 7

4.Press calibrate battery, and quickly remove charger from phone

5. Let phone die 100% completely

6.Recharge with no interruption at all, dont touch it

7.Keep repeating for a couple of times

8.Profit

However there's a new method I found

http://support.t-mobile.com/thread/2710?start=210&tstart=0

I suggest htc users go to the t-mobile support forum and search for the thread on massive battery drain. It has now been established that it is a problem with recent upgrades to hspa+ and htc handsets. There is nothing wrong with your phone other than the radio trying to make sense of the new upgrade and it can't. The forum there will explain it in more detail.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JLuhmarty:
I'm sorry to try and keep a thread going that seems to not have much interest but I feel the need to keep this on peoples minds in order to try and get the right person to see it. This issue is not going away for certain t-mobile users and is gaining more and more traction in the forums as the days pass. This is a legitimate 3g/4g network issue causing peoples batteries to go from 24+ hour charges to 3-5 hour charges and it started instantly after some change t-mobile did last week to it's 3g/4g networks in certain regions. Please keep this thread going, if for nothing else, to try and get a few more people aware of it and maybe finally reaching the media or any avenue that can help get the ball rolling on some resolution. Thanks.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JLuhmarty:
Not to sound too short here but it is well established that it is not a battery issue. People have bought new batteries.....same problem. People have calibrated batteries......same problem. The ONLY solution for those effected like myself is to turn off 3g/4g and go to 2g only.

[HTC EVO 3D] sleekgreek:
ok, since we bombarded them over the source releases, I think in all decentcy we should return to say thanks. It's easy to picket and raise hell, so we should at least go clap our hands, they could of easily given us the big finger.
[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
What is it i'm thanking them for again?
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
At first I read this and agreed 100%. Then as I gave it more thought I realized that would be like a teacher thanking their student for doing their homework or you thanking your mechanic for fixing your car...that's what they are supposed to do...legally required to do (lets not start that whole 'GPL wiggle room' meme again)...and they did it late.

I'm glad they did, I'm not sure if the facebook assault had anything to do with it, but I'm not sure they deserve a thank you for doing what they are required to do.
[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
Just checked and my phone still says no updates available.
[HTC EVO 3D] Craysh:
Done!

Apparently you don't know what 'Source' is...

This doesn't mean they have an update for you to download, it means that they released a copy of their kernel.
[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
They only release the source because they are required too not because we asked them. If that was the case well you know the story.
[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
Apparently not, na just didn't read all the words.. still
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Not only that, they released the wrong kernel source. They f'ed up

[HTC EVO 3D] PuNkShoO:
Lol! I totally thank my mechanic when he fixes my car. You thank people when they do things that you appreciate regardless of whether or not its something you're paying them to do. Its Just plain good taste. But yeah, I agree with the OP. Whenever anyone opens their source its a good tying. It allows endeavors like the XDA community to keep on deving.
[HTC EVO 3D] sleekgreek:
The simple fact is, they didn't have to do anything. Do you honestly believe we have rights as consumers? I mean really? Do I feel I owed them a thank you?, no. Is it a decent thing to do after the fact?,yes. They gave it to us sooner rather then later, or even at all for that matter. Human decentcy is a funny thing lately in this country, but whatever.
[HTC EVO 3D] nuprotocol:
Agreed!
[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
I build ROMs and Skins and can't even get people to hit a simple "Thanks" button so you don't have to preach to me about it. Not that you are your just making a statement. I have no problem giving thanks, but I never *****ed about the source in the first place. I only *****ed about the other thing.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Back down there sparky...I believe I phrased my reply to indicate that I was indeed on the fence with the idea. I'm not laboring over my decision but I want to give it thought. The kernel source is subject to the rules of the GPL. They paid nothing for it and only have to abide by the rules of the license. One of those rules is that the source code must be made available (within a certain amount of time? I keep hearing 30 days but I'm not so sure).

I guess I just used poor analogies. You don't thank someone for not robbing your house...do you?

That said, in the name of fairness (and human decency...towards a corporation that has already demonstrated a desire to screw us as much as we will allow?) I'm still considering my stance.

I appreciate all the work that is done here, and I'm sorry that I cant contribute to that work. I wasn't calling out everybody here, most people didnt hit their page, but those of us that did, I felt a simple thanks would be good in the long term future. You know, maybe the evo3, instead of them being like **** those guys that spammed us last year and never came back, they may be like, hey lets get them the goods again, all the thanks looked good on our fb page. Social networking has given us power, much more than the old 800 number, simply because all complaints and gratitudes are in the public view of the world. Plus as a species thats struggling, again, simple decentcy is refreshing, and whats wrong with that? ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] sleekgreek:
Read above post.
[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
When I first read the post I didn't read all the words like I said. I missed the part about the source code.

People just aren't as appreciative as they used to be. Thats what I think mostly America has become. I do get enough thanks for what I do and thats why I keep doing it. I know people like it even though they don't always show it.

I actually talked to HTC this morning and the first words out of my mouth were that I love their phones and what they do.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
That's pretty compelling...in the short run. In the long run I would hope that you are proven correct and it's certainly worth a shot. If they don't learn from this, well, we can always attack them again.

I think I just might give them a thanks. All of that positive PR would surely help convince them to do the same in the future.
[HTC EVO 3D] housry23:
Well I stopped by their Facebook to say thanks as soon as they posted it. I hit them up in a polite way every day asking for it, so I felt that I wanted to thank them for doing it in a timely matter. Other companies and phones take much longer. Now, if I still had my OG EVO, I would not have thanked them for releasing today. I mean when did the GB update for the OG EVO come out? And they are just releasing it today? This is my opinion, not that anyone asked for it.
[HTC EVO 3D] sleekgreek:
Don't get me wrong, I hate fascist America and where we're being led by the corporate hand. In my thank you post I mention being screwed as a consumer. I'm very outspoken about it, and would blast them again in a heartbeat. At the same time though, I know they have the money and legal team to not have to release anything if they dont want to. The rules sound good to us, but thats it. PR no matter how small is a big issue to these clowns nowadays, everyone wants you to give a good survey, a thanks on public display probably goes a long way, especially when most people only take the 3 minutes it takes to *****, like we did. I didn't post how great the 3d effect was when I got the phone, but I slammed them over the source code, see what I mean.
[HTC EVO 3D] sleekgreek:
Oh yeah, if you look at all the amazing things the original palm pre ( webos is still the god of os's imo) was able to do, it was because palm embraced the dev community. They sold an ok phone, that was great because of the armchair devs out there, they knew that and supported it, and we were all appreciative that they did.

Hello,

As i was updating my HD2 from WM 6.5 to WM7. I updated my Radio LEO 2.15.50.14 & After that i used MAGLDR113 but BOOTLOADER doesn't open. When i update my MAGLDR the welcome screens comes like

" o2 Welcome " and hangs on it. "

I even press the red button on the back which tries to open bootloader but the same screen comes and hangs there.

NEED HELP!

What should i do now? Urgent!

Thanks in Advance.

Now all my expectations are with you ! :)

Thank you!
[HD2 General] orangekid:
turn off the phone, hold volume down while you power it on, you should be at a tri-color screen with your spl and radio info, this is your bootloader.

Once you access this, I would flash task29, then magldr113, then try your WP7 flash again.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
I would first check the spl, my bet is you let hspl.exe offer you the wrong hspl.

Assuming you are coming from a stock o2 rom, that could only be 1.4x 1.6x or 3.03,, and magldr won't start without 2.08.hspl
[HD2 General] orangekid:
Good call, I hadn't thought of the obvious first.
[HD2 General] rockr129:
Ahhh Experience speaks! :P

well..

i was having spl 3.03 so i used hspl 4 and then magldr is not starting.. nice call but what should i do now? which magldr should i use? :O

@orangekid

thanks for the help but magldr is not being opened now what should i do ?

my phone is hanged now...

no use of phone! i need to install wm7 :(
[HD2 General] orangekid:
You have to rerun HSPL4 and choose HSPL 2.08
[HD2 General] rockr129:
u sure about it man? :P i don't want to take risks at all :D lol
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Yea,Hspl4,choose 2.08.hspl,and magldr should start.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] basenode:
there is no specific guide. Unfortunately every CPU is different so the values you can use to undervolt will be different. Check out Faux's Thread Around page 50. There should be some info there.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mysticdrew:
Just have to play around with it. Usually start off with the lower frequencies and see if stable. Then continue up.

Good rule of thumbs are the higher freq, the less you should undervolt.

Another important thing is uncheck Set on Boot. Last thing you want is for it to be unstable and you're stuck in a reboot loop cause it keeps setting itself.
