Got my spare batteries yesterday and will try them out soon. Funny thing, I ordered 2 batteries and received 4 instead! Good thing my wife has the OG EVO so I can share hehe.
[EVO Shift 4G General] YoungCorruptionV2.0:
I like how we all buy new batteries around the same time lol.... This is how girls feel when everyone is on their period
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
lol, the batteries are great A++++++++++++++++++++ great ebayer would buy again.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Yup, my new battery is doing great, getting a good 15+ hours out of it with heavy usage. No need for extra batteries to replace when this one runs out because it goes all day long just fine :)
[EVO Shift 4G General] trsix:
umm

How did u have them checked? a volt/ohm meter? I tried that with mine but too hard to get accurate results with the gauge on meter. Took one to sprint one time to see if they could check said they can't.
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
Got them checked at Radio Shack. Someone I know works there, and he tested them for me. They don't normally do it for the public. It's a Battery Tester/Analyzer they used to sell at the store. Now it can only be bought online I believe. Hellua expensive piece of equipment :( .
[EVO Shift 4G General] tbag1122:
Well i know i don't post a lot on here but I figured I'd give my take on these batteries. At first i was really disappointed with them. I could barely get 12 hours off a charge. But after i got the stand alone battery charger and letting the batteries fully drain and just swap them back and forth, they've been phenomenal. I've gotten 49 hours off one charge. This was with light to medium use mostly around my wifi network but i think thats still great. I'm currently at 31 hours and 19 percent. And that's half wifi and half mobile network. About 8 hours of that is at work in a plant with crap reception.

So to sum it up I'm thoroughly impressed with these batteries and just wanted thanks for starting this thread and for the suggestions.

Edit: Forgot to mention I'm running miui-112300 with apps to ext. Kernal pershoot v14.
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
Been getting between 12-16Hrs off a charge. But I'm a really HEAVY phone user.
[EVO Shift 4G General] crump84:
About the same for me. I ordered the batteries you posted and I'm getting around 15 hours.. And I consider myself a power user :)
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
Hells yes. If I'm not texting, I'm on the net, or on a call. I'm shocked I get that much out of them :p .

Figures something like this would make me have to sign up for an Amazon account for the first time =/

Just ordered a set of these. Hope to see some better battery life. I've always been the kind of user that needs to keep a charger in my vehicle because there's no way I can go a full day on a single charge. I've actually had to keep a Touch Pro2 handy just to be able to rotate and charge extra batteries for those days I don't have access to a plug of any kind. It's a pain though because I have one of those cases for my phone that is a pain to get off so I can access the back panel to swap out the battery.
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
Wow :eek: . Hope they work out for you.
[EVO Shift 4G General] retiredhp2200:
Just some stats off my phone to give you an idea...

Last reboot was 19 hours 43 minutes ago

Current uptime is 13 hours 52 minutes

I'm currently 7 hours 2 minuts on my battery and I'm at 69%.

This has been a light use day for me since it's a "snow day" and I'm not working, I've actually been spending a lot of time in front of my computer for the first time in a while.

I keep my screen brightness at 25% just to help power use.

[EVO Shift 4G General] retiredhp2200:
I just got my batteries in yesterday. I'm going to let my phone go for a day and see what happens.
[EVO Shift 4G General] evilthx:
I think I have had my original battery in my shift for a very long time... has to be over a year. As I sit here looking at my screen I can watch my battery % drop off one percent every 4-5 min or so. When it was new I could do what I do now all day long and still have plenty left at the end of the night when I went to bed... Now, if I get on the phone after a full charge all night and talk for maybe 5 minutes to my girl I have like 60% battery left... depressing. 40% in 5 minutes. As I sit here and type this it has dropped 2%. I am looking into a Seidio or Mugen battery I think is how they are spelled... are these ok brands to use? They are extended slim batteries... one a 1750mAh and the other an 1800mAh.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Wow you didn't use you phone much at all? Did the screen even come on lol?
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
It really depends on how much you use your phone...amount of time screen is on, if your using wifi or mobile network, screen brightness, animations are on/off, home screen launcher rotates or not, ect ect ect. Also if you've had our battery for more then a year I would replace it. Most batteries can not handle more than a year of usage.
[EVO Shift 4G General] letmeputdatipin:
LMAO!!! Not much, but not too bad for a stock batt.

Let Me Put My Shift In U!
[EVO Shift 4G General] evilthx:
I use it all day long... the majority of the time it is texting then phone calls then everything else. When I am not using it or right after I use it I turn the screen off. The phone is BONE STOCK... no launchers, no sync, I have the screen on auto brightness and if I can help it, nothing updates on its own... not even the weather. I like to do everything manually. Very few widgets and I only use 3 home screens... My battery lasted 3.5 hours tonight... just put it back on the charger :( I made two phone calls and the last one took it from 43% to 13% in 7min.

I am going to buy a battery within the week... then I will be getting the phone my girlfriend got... The Galaxy S II Epic Touch. That thing floors me everytime she allows me to play with it.
[EVO Shift 4G General] retiredhp2200:
Can still kill my phone in 4 hours with the new battery. Well, at least my S.O. isn't getting angry at me anymore for using her TouchPro2 battery =/
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
There is definatly something not right about that :screwy: . I hellua use my Shift. Quickest I've ever killed it was playing Need for Speed for an hour straight. It still was over seven hours total. Plus all I did all the normal stuff, net, texts, calls, and Emails. something is using up hellua battery in the backgroud.

The only thing I could think of was a program I use for NWS warnings. When I first installed it the pole time was 5 minutes. During the 'bad weather' times I set the pole time for 15 mi nutes. During the winter time (and now) I set the pole time for once an hour.

The other thing I've wondered was, when the screen is off my wifi turns off... would auto updates while there's no connection cause that?

Recently I installed what looks like a real nice program for recording power use and I'm working on getting a decent log bujilt up now.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
The wifi turning off issue can be fixed with spare parts wifi sleep settings. Set wifi to never turn off instead of turning off when sceen is off.
[EVO Shift 4G General] one_love_420:
Or go into wifi settings thru settings, once in the wifi settings press menu then goto advanced. In there you can change the wifi sleep policy. The advanced menu for wifi is in sense and aosp roms.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Yeah true, that basicly does the same thing as spare parts but a better option for sense roms if you don't have it installed from the market.
[EVO Shift 4G General] retiredhp2200:
I'm still running the U.K.E. rom so going under advanced would work for me. I just don't know how I feel about leaving the wifi on since that episode of someone sending me that text in chinese saying "Thanks for the phone jack"...
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
I leave wifi turned on all the time and that has never happened to me. But I'm not running U.K.E. either v v
[EVO Shift 4G General] retiredhp2200:
I'll try turning the Wifi back on tonight and see if that helps anything. Currently I'm plugged in and should have close to a full battery by time I get home from work. When I'm not home I try to keep Wifi off along with 3g unless I know I'm going to be using data for something like GPS or something. When I'm running 3g I normally have auto updates turned off also.

From what I've seen of this battery, the program I'm using is "guessing" that the white battery from Amazon is only able to produce 1100mah though it says the more charge cycles at 50% or greater the better. I normally plug my phone in about 30%.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
If your getting a high system cell standby try turning off usb debugging when you don't need it. When I had the G1 there was a strange bug that would drain the battery after plugging usb in and only a reboot would fix it. This might be a htc bug in general but not really sure. I keep usb debugging and unknown sources off unless I need it.
[EVO Shift 4G General] retiredhp2200:
Hadn't thought about that. I'll give that a try. I normally keep both on.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Ok and????
[EVO Shift 4G General] retiredhp2200:
Android system is no longer the number two user of battery power. I haven't had a chance to get a good look at what changes that might have made. I've just been real busy... Also the battery widget program just did an update to fix a FC issue in Android 2.3 so that will make things easier.

Lemme check the stats and I'll modify this post... That battery widget I had is junk so I'll have to look into a different option. I'll be pounding on my phone today (out of the office today) and I'll let you know how it handles an abusive day.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nagelzz:
Hi my plushies :p

Anyways. I just got a Desire HD! :D YAY ME!

Being a Desire owner for 2 years and seeing a lot of great development on the HD, i'd give it a go. So far seems good, though i like the AMOLED a bit more imo ;)

So my first boot after getting it from retailer, it boots with T-Mobile logo. That means its from USA right? Is my phone then an Inspire or a Ace? Afaik, the Inspire is the american version?

The weird part is, i got the T-Mobile one because the other one (a danish one WWE), was send for repair and i recieved this instead.

Will this affect anything? And how the *** do i figure out of its an Inspire or Ace?! :D

**Btw, i did do my search first lol ;)

**Is it on the bootloader? I saw an "Ace" in there, but wasn't sure if everyone DHD had that name :D

*2. edit* Lol apparently i've used the wrong terms. So, Desire HD or Inspire :D (Apparently their all Ace (As in vendor Ace, like the Desire -> Vendor Bravo))
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wbbigdave:
Inspire is the 4g version DHD was not.

I've got a german t-mobile branded phone so i'd never be sure where it's from ;)

but yes: DHD is the HSPA version, Inspire 4G is the 4G version (LTE? HSPA+? no clue)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oik01:
My phone is an American inspire that i bought unlocked online... its actually an ATT phone and not tmobile. If your phone is a Tmobile then its def not american but probably from some other countey instead. Another way to find out is by seeing if you get access to 3g in yoir country. Because att uses frequencies that are different from most other countries around the world, the american Inspire doesnt get access to 3g data in most countries. Apart from that its practicaly the same phone ;) hope this helpzs
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Agoattamer:
There are basically 3 versions of the Desire HD.

First is the European/Asian version. It is model A9191 and has high speed data bands of 900/2100. It can be branded or non branded but they are all the same physically. If it says T-mobile on it then it is a European version branded to T-mobile.

2nd is the Telus Desire HD from Canada. It is model A9192 and has high speed data bands of 850/1900. It has no logo denoting it as a branded phone. It also has a second mic by the camera flash used for noise reduction.

3rd is the Inspire 4G from ATT in the USA. It is also model A9192. Physically it is exactly like the Telus Desire HD except it has ATT branding logos on the phone.

All 3 phones are HSPDA compatible. All 3 have the same size memory. All three have the same LCD. In terms of getting at least 3G, if you live in Europe you want the A9191. The A9192 is mainly for North America/parts of South America and can be used in parts of Australia on the Telstra network.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] David_PDA2K:
Hi I currently have a A9191 running CM7.2.

When I purchased this phone (in Australia) I was originally on the Vodafone network & I'm now on Telstra NextG (850) - but for high speed data it can only get the "3" network = 2100.

I wanted to know if it is possible to load on the A9192 baseband to "activate" / change to the high speed data bands of 850/1900? Or if there is any other mod to do this?

Or is the physical hardware of the A9191 only capable of the high speed data bands of 900/2100?

Any help or advise would be much appreciated

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] David_PDA2K:
Thanks Teichopsia,

Looking at this thread, it looks like he was trying to get 4G (inspire4G) out of a 3G device, which I'd say is even harder than just switching bands.

But it doesn't mention anything about the A9192 vs A9291.

Even Qualcomm's site doesn't list a A9192.

I agree it does look like a potentially hardware thing though - i.e. potentially different radio hardware / antenna / firmware... but I don't specifically see this detailed anywhere. Looking to see something that says it is different physical hardware.

The theory I'd like to validate - both Desire HDs use the same MSM8255 chipset, & perhaps you can make a A9191 to a A9292 with flashing the right firmware.

Going to reply to the thread you sent to see if they had any further luck.

Kind Regards,

David.

Hello everyone,

For the first time since I rooted my Panache, I want to flash a new ROM.

I'm using cyanogenmod right now and I want to flash Virtuous Affinity.

I know I must do a full wipe but do I need to erase or format my sdcard as well?

Can I use Titanium backup to reinstall my application and their settings without issues? (AOSP => SENSE)

Thanks!

SDcard wipe is not required to flash a new rom...

[Eee Pad Transformer General] asdfuogh:
I did a search on 'gyroscope' in the Transformer forums, but the closest non-rom related problem was from half a year ago so I decided to not necro it. My Transformer TF101 seems to have developed an ignore-my-gyroscope-itis or something.. or the gyroscope is broken. According to an accelerometer app, there's no tilt when I tilt it.

In any case, I didn't do anything special to it before and after the gyroscope went on a strike (no rom changes, no drops, etc.). My TF is model B5, running on Prime 2.1.1 or whatever the latest one is. Any thoughts on possible reasons why it's messed up, and how I could verify whether it is just a simple software thing (I do download all free Amazon apps, and occasionally get crap apps..) or is it a hardware thing? I think I'll attempt a complete re-flash of a rom (been wanting to change to Revolver again) when I have time, but does anyone have a good idea of what to try before then?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
-Hello tech services

-yes

-Have you Tried turning it off and on again?

But seriously

NVFlash if possible and if not try some different kernels to se if it is an issue with that. If you use an older kernel with a an newer rom sensors sometimes stop working. and if that does not work do a full wipe and reflash

From the good folk over at TmoNews. I changed over via T-Mobile Chat. If you're paying for a 5 or 10 GB plan, might as well add this option. T-Mobile charges $15 to use mobile hotspots and they don't give you any extra data.

I've use the feature with my tablet and was never charged but just in case...

[T-Mobile LG G2x] dkb218:
Okay...

Hey Moe, Larry and Curly! :D Did you guys bother to read the story on the other side of the link?

Here's the skinny - T-Mobile started charging $14.99 a month for you to use mobile hot spots. The promotion gives you FREE mobile hot spots. And no, I'm not talking about the app.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Hey knows nothing about anything and is for some reason rude, I tether quite often and don't have any extra charges....

[T-Mobile LG G2x] redfarsi:
Do you know what a T-Mobile hotspot is?

https://selfcare.hotspot.t-mobile.com/services_about.do

It has nothing to do with tethering your phone or even using your data plan. It's actually the opposite, it allows you to connect to a broadband network called "T-Mobile HotSpot".
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Ya but we have tether hotspot on our phones meaning my friends tablet works places I am at cause I enable my phone to be a device to connect to via wifi.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Actually...

1) Yes, you can tether your t-mobile device.

2) Yes, you can do it without paying t-mobile.

HOWEVER

3) If you do it heavily, they will send you a message complaining, and telling you that if you want to continue, you'll need to pay $14.99

I received that message last month... to date they haven't cut off my tethering.. however, technically, they do charge for the service, even though it works without paying.

but...

4) I don't know if they will actually cut anyone off - I wasn't cut off, but YMMV

And, yes, they are now offering a free add-on now that allows you to legitimately tether without paying...

However "to protect revenue stream" they aren't offering it proactively, it's supposed to be offered as a save feature if someone is wanting to cancel.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redfarsi:
What your talking about is using sharing your data plan.

"T-Mobile HotSpot" is a service. If you go to a restaurant and scan wireless networks there will be a "T-Mobile HotSpot" and you can connect to it and now you have broadband internet that doesn't count towards your data plan.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
I got that bit lol. I guess the difference is more important to some then me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTWalling:
Quote from their Add. "Smartphone Mobile Hotspot provides the ability to share a Smartphone's 4G connection and is normally a $14.99 value." Which would be Tethering & portable hotspot in the phones settings.

Just got it activated on my existing 5gb plan. Thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] freakboy13:
I wonder if you can qualify if you have unlimited data, they would probably force me to choose the 5 or 10th and give that up. I already pay the 15$ a month for the hotspot...

They bought a replacement screen off ebay but they can't find instructions to replace it. I've tried to help them. I found nothing on google or on here. I've found videos and such for other HTC phones but not this one. I'm thinking either it may be too hard to replace on your own or maybe its just such a new phone that nobody has posted anything yet. If anyone can help her out i would really appreciate it.
[HTC Radar] MJCS:
I'm not sure if you would be able to replace it to be honest. Since it has a unibody design. If he just bought it from t-mobile he should be able to get it replaced.

If not he will need a set of torx screw drivers, a prying tool, tweezers, and a lot of time. I suggest recording the entire session so you know what screws go back where.
