Good about the charge fix. BUT if I forget to set recovery mode back will not be locked out of recovery???

I thought I saw a post about getting into recovery buy plugging in the charger w/o the batt?

Anyone know a way to get recovery if charge mode is set?
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
U need to push install recovery again if u want to be able to get into recovery.

After pressing install recovery u can get into recovery simply by power down and plug in.

It hijacks our charge only.mode.

if u pressed charge mode last the hijack is erased until u press install recovery again.
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
ashclepdia

So better not to play with charge mode on a regular basis, you may leave your self having to sbf for any problem.
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
Yupperz. At least that's my mantra to live by ;)

The ONLY time I switch to charge mode is if I were doing a bump charge. And I am even nervous then. I am pretty sure your phone will charge while.in recovery mode anyways so why bother taking the chance? Only real reason to use chargebmode is cuz u might like seeing that wavy battery animation which I find highly.inaccurate most of the time anyways.

RECOVERY MODE 4 LIFE BABY!

Although some problems MAY be fixed with a data wipe from stock recovery, I would just rather load the daily.nandroid I make EVERY morning when I jump in the shower ;) I just delete the day before nandroid afterward to save room and then I know I will have a recent restore if I have any problems throughout the day. Its a nice security to have imho

I have 3 of the noname ebay mb860 1930ma/h "BH6X" I only get a day at most. They are better than the stock batt. I do not have the moto BH6X.
[Motorola Droid X2] joshpmerk:
non oem extended battery

hey the problem with the non oem extended battery is that moto software report that the battery's capacity is only like 500 mah no matter how much the battery really is. i have the 1800 got them for like 3.59 each free shipping moto says 1 % at 3.900 volt i get 3 times as long running time at 1% as i did the first 99%. if we could just find a way to tell the system what the battery's real capacity is that would fix all the battery problems or make a widget that can count usage by current
[Motorola Droid X2] dwibbles33:
I've had the BH6X battery for a solid 6 months now and I've had no issues with leaving the OEM cover on, and if you have a rooted phone you can clear the battery stats in the menu and you get more accurate readings.
[Motorola Droid X2] Stuckinabox:
I know this thread's been inactive for a month, but I noticed some familiar sounding issues with the BH6X regarding the phone's meter vs. the actual life of the battery.

The Droid X has a problem with a particular batch of the BH6X, specifically ones marked "SNN5893A." It's possible the DX2 has the same problem. For more info, I started a thread about it on droidxforums. Just google "BH6X OEM extended battery owners please read" since I can't post links yet.

As a matter of fact, now that I go back and read the thread at least one person said they had this issue with the X2.

[Motorola Droid X2] weldawadyathink:
You need to calibrate your battery, but my phone still can't read it correctly. Stays on 1% for another hour before dying
[Motorola Droid X2] jbatacan:
I used an app called Battery Left, and its purpose is to measure based on voltage drain instead of what your phone is telling you, and is meant for batteries that are bigger then stock.

One thing to note on battery left is to make sure its set to always try and re calculate once its reached accurate rating by going into the battery tab, hitting edit, and unchecking calibrate until accurate. This will keep it updated as your battery ages, making the voltages drop.

Let me know how this goes for you!
[Motorola Droid X2] unt0uchable:
So this is a bit off topic but has anyone experimented with the 3800mAh batteries on ebay? I've been looking into getting one of those and just modifying my cheapo ebay case to fit it. Any experience? This thread may have talked me into the BH6X though....just looking to see if anyone used the larger ones?
[Motorola Droid X2] Moon Shadow - NM:
I purchased on of them and didn't see a dramatic improvement over the Moto extended battery. I was able to eke out about another 2 hours of of the battery. So, what I do now is keep 2 other extended batteries charged and carry one of them with me.

Ciao!
[Motorola Droid X2] weldawadyathink:
The phone can't read the charge correctly. You can last another 5 hours on 1%.

I got a problem with my bh6x so that I have to tape the battery cover on. whatever you choose, don't take the door off too much.
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
of the users here made a thread designated to reviewing benefits of the 3800mah battery they had purchased...u can find it somewhere in this section for more info

apparently he was pulling somesuck battery life out of it

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rabak:
did anyone ever experience that thing?

i'm charging my phone it reaches 75% and then stops... sometimes even battery gets lower...

even if i charge the battery completly on another phone and switch between the batteries i still get that the battery is at 75%! (even when i charge the phone when its turned off!)

i tried Darky Resurrection 10.2 and the problem still exists...

tried to wipe battery stats with (battery calibration app and from CWM) no success...

anyone got an idea???

(clearly its not battery or charger since i got 2 galaxy and only one has a problem...)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djice000:
Buy titanium backup and freeze "Samsung Account" and "software updater" these are the two main things that eat battery. Also let your battery run flat, then once it has died (try switching on the confirm it's dead) then plug in charger whilst phone is off and allow to charge fully, once it says its full, unplug (don't switch on yet) plug back in to confirm its full, if so..enter recovery, wipe battery stats and reboot. This will need to be repeated 2-3 times :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rabak:
thanks for the reply..

sadly the phone just stops charging even when its off...

it says charging the indicator moves

but it doesnt do anything even sometimes the % even go down...

you can grab the system images from the moto dev website. its a zip that includes the boot, recovery, system and userdata .img files that you can flash. make sure to get the proper ones for your model.

I updated an X10a yesterday from 2.1 to 2.3.3 generic originally for X10i

The flashing was OK and the OS is working fine, but there are some issues. The Wifi works from time to time, the voice control isn't working (I don't know if that's because I have to download it from Market or it's integrated).

What can I do?

If I would like to change the firmware, which one is working fine and you recommend?

Thanks,

PS: Is there any guide to give a lookout on the themes thing?

I would probably have a dumb phone still. The only network that has service at my house is verizon, and the way I see it without android the iPhone would still be exclusive to ATT so I couldn't get that. Also, without the iPhone and Android's success Microsoft may not have felt such pressure to improve, and WinMo would be more like 6.5 was then Windows Phone 7. Blackberry's all seemed business too so that would be beyond that. That all happening I wouldn't really see any smartphone as usable for me. If however everything was the exact same, and android just disappeared today I think I'd get a HTC Trophy on VZW.

I was using an iPhone before Android existed and would likely be still using one exclusively. Without Android, 75% of my devices would not exist. And WP7 would have been a long ways off.

But there was WinMo. I doubt I would have jumped into a WinMo at the time iPhone came out because it was seriously lacking. It took a few years for a capacitive touch WinMo device to come along. iPhone was the best and most attractive option in its beginning.

Now that Android is here, it seems to fill the void of user contentment.

[Off-topic] iPwn_:
Um what? Every iPhone single the 1st gen has had a scratchproof glass screen. My 1st gen iPod touch has never had a screen protector and has absolutely no scratches on the screen side.

And advancing hardware? I'll admit the 3G was a bit disappointing, but I'm pretty sure the 3GS was the fastest phone on the market at release (counting both CPU and graphics power), and when the iPhone 4 was released, the A4 was still more powerful than the first gen snapdragons (7x50, 8x50) (since they had no L2 cache, had a ****ty memory bus, and had the crappy Adreno 200 GPU).

Then, yes, the Hummindbird and Snapdragon 8x55s came along to eat it, but the iPhones at release are never any slouches on the hardware end.

I think you should be thanking Apple for the build quality of our current smartphones (although only HTC has pulled it off...Moto and Sumsung are terrible with build and design). They're thin, sexy, feel sturdy, and feel like expensive equipment.

Previously all phones felt like $10 walmart products.
