Maybe I can buy for you, or you can find a purchasing platform . I'm in China
[Xiaomi 12S] Nicknackpaddywack101:
If you're not like Chinese and plan on using this phone as a daily driver than you are probably out of luck as this phone does not sell out of China. Even if you managed to get hold of it warranty and other benefits would not work outside of China.

If you are like me who simply wants to try out Chinese hardware and flash Custom roms than I suggest you wait a bit for devs who manage to get their hands on this device or when Xiaomi releases enough code for custom rom developers for them to churn out a good aosp-like rom.

Of course there is still the issue of this device being Chinese-only so non-Chinese custom rom devs would not pay much attention to this device.

The latest device that supports a mainstream AOSP custom rom (I regard LineageOS and pixelexperience as mainstream) is the Mi11, and that has been out for two years now.

You of course can choose to use the stock Chinese rom, With all the Mi bloatware and ads, other Chinese bloatware, Play services bugs, and you would have to sideload the Play Store.

With the money you are paying for this phone (and the added shipping fee to ship outside China) along with the fact that warranty (or even general) support is only in China (which means if you run into issues with your phone you would have to send it back in China to fix the issues) I suggest you look for a different phone that is officially sold and supported in your region.

I just order touch hd , and waiting for it. but I wonder how about battery drain on touch hd.

I got diamond one and it terrible on standard battery.
[Touch HD General] indup:
better than diamond thats for sure ما شاء الله
[Touch HD General] bla3603:
with extensive outdoor usage (gps running, wlan enabled but home wlan unreachable) my Blackstone is drained in less then 4 hours.

[Touch HD General] luckyuser:
I'm almost have to recharge my Touch every single day! And in mine opinion I don't use it very extremely. Didn't have that issue with my TyTn!
[Touch HD General] bla3603:
With my TyTN II (Kaiser) I have the same bad experience, drained in less then 1/2 day. Same with some other devices. But I think this is typical for this device class. With some directives the battery power can be saved:

- disable WLAN when going outwards

- reduce display brightness

- disable/shutdown GPS apps if not used

- buy a car kit ;-)

In my opinion WLAN and the display are the most power consuming parts.

[Touch HD General] iDaemon:
thanks for the advice, normally i have recharge pda-phone every single day with normal usesage. hope to not worry about battery like a normal cellphone ;/
[Touch HD General] Trixster101:
Don't have any problems with drain, even after steady use I still had 3 bars left :O
[Touch HD General] bla3603:
You are welcome. I am still playing with my new Blackstone, but I think with "normal" usage the operating distance will be 2..3 days.

[Touch HD General] custardo01:
Had a problem trying to charge it in my car for the first time. On a 3 hour journey with about 1/4 battery level left and running pocket player and TomTom when I got home still only 1/4 (or maybe even less) battery power left. I charge it through the USB port in the car stereo. Never had that problem with Polaris under same conditions. Seems ok at home running the same programmes and charging through the mains.

Any one else having trouble charging in a car?
[Touch HD General] mike-biker:
I hope it stands more than one day only. Xperia has better values, my friend told me, it lasts two days more...:)
[Touch HD General] bla3603:

[Touch HD General] Khalild:
with heavy usage but turning off WiFi outdoors battery life has been pretty good lasts a day and a half.
[Touch HD General] onesolo:
In 3G mode, only with two full charges and a bit of heavy usage, cause I only have my HD from last friday, it's been lasting for about 1,5 day. I'm going to test it about one more week and then I'm going to test it in normal GSM mode.
[Touch HD General] ez2remember:
With heavy usage lasting about a day.

2 hours movie

1 hr mp3

30 min calls

10+ text messages

1 hour internet through wifi

12 hrs standby

5 minutes google maps

Maybe 1 hr playing with my new toy (screen lit) :)

Probably about 2-3 days when my usage goes back to "normal".
[Touch HD General] jackthekayman:
I've charged my HD @ 15 o'clock and now is on 72% of battery
[Touch HD General] fowler002:
opps sorry wrong section, ment to be in the dream not blackstone :) how do you delete posts?
[Touch HD General] nichri:
I have usually a heavy use on it (i.e. too much talking over BT headphone, regular wifi email exchange, rss update etc.).

I used to see it drain easily until I used the advance configuration to fix sd management, connection management etc. For some reason everything was off on mine.

Now with (fairly) regular use it can go one and half day almost.
[Touch HD General] nin2thevoid:
True, no need for WLAN to be on when on the move. It's the most power consuming antenna in your phone. You can set it to disable if it can't find an access point for 1 minute. Bluetooth is also a killer... These phones are stuffed with radio's, don't turn them on all at once.
[Touch HD General] nin2thevoid:
Oh, and my phone easily lasts a day, and I tinker with it all the friggin time, and use it quite a bit. But I only activate stuff when I need it, such as wifi, bluetooth, direct push. I rarely use GPS, yes of course this drains your battery in 4 hours, just like when you would place a call or watch a video or browse the web for 4 hours. Anything that uses a lot of radio activity or a lot of screen on-time will drain your battery fast.

I optimized power saving modes with schaps advanced config and turn the thing off at night.

Push email on winmo or apple phones is a joke. The way it requires to keep a GPRS connection alive is ridiculous. Blackberry understands this a lot better.

If you don't use it, you might as well turn GRPS auto attach off using schaps advanced config tool since that too will save a lot of battery time.
[Touch HD General] Enko:
Recharged 20 hours ago. Normal use. GPRS Data Connection on, e-mail push each hour (i have flatrate) and i have 85% of battery left.
[Touch HD General] miki8184:
hi

My friend had tytn2,I have hd for 3 days :D,and he says that resolution on screen is problem...if you have a lot of pixels,like hd 800 x 480,batery will faster be empty...

of course,+gps+,p3+wifi+backligt on screen+....
[Touch HD General] nin2thevoid:
the screen itself requires only little more power than a lower res version, the backlighting requires a lot. Since the screen surface, not the resolution, is high, the backlighting will take more power.

because of the high resolution, applications require more processor activity, resulting in more battery drain theoretically.
[Touch HD General] jon-:
Going lite on the radios (ie a little wifi, no bluetooth) mine lasts about 3 days with some evening browsing, a few texts a day and a few phone calls.
[Touch HD General] jentech:
I've had a Diamond, a Touch Pro and now a Touch HD. At the moment, using it in the same way, I'm getting better battery life with the HD than with either of the others. Almost 2 full days before charging.
[Touch HD General] bla3603:
after playing the last days.. battery is imo ok! last charged yesterday in the evening, today some calls and a littlebit GPS using, and now, 24hrs later, battery has ca. 60% left. that is ok for me. :)

but.. I have a problem with S2U2 v1.35: it drains my Blackstone in nearly 4 hours. I searched around S2U2 but no success yet, I'm unable to find a proper configuration of this really nice app (works very well with my Kaiser!), using official shipped German ROM 1.14.407.3 GER . anybody with the same problem? :confused:

regards

ps: also still unable to tell you about friend's X1 experiences, vendor is unable to deliver.. :eek:
[Touch HD General] onesolo:
Ok, now with more than a week with the phone, I get 1,5 to 3 days of usage depending on what I do. I'm on 3G and with BT on.

Next I'm going to test it with 3G off, only GSM on.
[Touch HD General] Kenjari:
What perserves batter life? Meaning what can where down a battery in a device?

Keeping it on charge every opportunity? or Charging it completely and running it down to 10% then recharge completely?
[Touch HD General] GreenFrog:
WiFi is indeed a power killer; when turned on, the percentages dissapear when you blink with your eyes... it's little better when turn it in power save option, but the performance is noticeable worse. I think the Bluetooth is actually not that bad; I use the the HD also to play music in my car via Bluetooth by A2DP when driving to work, and it only takes a little of power (a few percentages)!

I charge my HD every day, but that is because I connect it to my PC every evening... ;) (I know you can turn that off, but I also like to have it completely full the next day). I do this also because my HD's predecessor (my trusty HP 2210 :D) had the issue to go back to default factory settings when the battery power was completely empty... and had to reinstall everything again...

Does anyone know how that is with the HD actually?
[Touch HD General] kamilyo:
My Touch Hd with intensive use (30min gps, around 10 min phone calls, 2h of teeter, 6h of installing apps, 30min of movies, 30min of wifi) lasted only around 18hours from 100% to 16%. It was my first day of use :D

...but since then I use it much less (just few phone calls no more than 30min per day, and 1h/day of playing with different apps) it lasts 3 days. It is usually around 20 % on the 3rd day.
[Touch HD General] jon-:
Do top up charges, lithium batteries don't like to be fully discharged.

I've ran my HD out a couple of times. It just turns itself off mid whatever it's doing with no warning, but doesn't reset itself.
[Touch HD General] Insaneboy:
Turning off 3G really improved battery life for me.

Since i don't use video calls and 3G internet, i don't miss it and i love the improved battery :)
[Touch HD General] FlangeArtist:
I get 4 days battery life, even with average use (radio, movies, emails, web surfing, and couple calls). This is mostly achieved by NOT having direct push, but syncronising every 30 mins, and doing many registry tweaks (as detailed elsewhere in this forum).
[Touch HD General] superfuffo:
I use the phone extensively with a bluetooth earplug, but usually i have wlan disabled, display brightness on manual and on highest setting, and it lasts well over a day. I was never below 30%...
[Touch HD General] iDaemon:
nice to hear that HD more less power drain over old models.
[Touch HD General] luckyuser:
The batterydrain on my Touch is incredable, and in fact I don't use it extremly! I have to charge everyday. Maybe a half our using the Internet a day, and take a look at some app's! Would it come while i'm using Internet with a HSDAP connection? Can I change that in 3G connection only? Will it avoid batterydrain:confused:
[Touch HD General] fasty:
Well I've just returned from a week away on holiday and not had to charge the phone once.

During that time I made a few short calls and used the GPS for about 30 minutes.

So... No complaints about battery life here !

One surprise was that although I only have a 2G SIM installed (and indeed it only works with 2G on Orange here in the UK), while I was "roaming" in Gran Canaria it switched to a solid "Orange 3G" connection. I didn't think that was possible!

[Touch HD General] AndyCr15:
I was a little surprised on Sunday. I was using my HD Saturday evening, connected to my PC, I think it was around 90% when I plugged it into the mains charger. For some reason, when I woke up it hadn't been charging. I went to work and the phone ran out of juice by 6pm :( To me, this isn't too good. I used 30 minutes of music and maybe an hour at most of other use.

I've just used Tweak HD to turn of my data connection after not being used for 1 minute. I assume I'll get improvements from that?

Are there any other known apps that cause drain? Someone mentioned S2U2 already, I've moved to PocketShield already.

I have Gyrator 2, Spb Wireless monitor, I did have a feedback mod for the keyboard (vibrated as you pressed a key) , Voice Commander, AE Buttons and GuardMobile... amongst others. Any of them ring a bell to those who drain their battery too quick?

Does the GPS stay on all the time, or only when I open Google maps or TomTom7?
[Touch HD General] Matt_K:
Agreed, 4 days here for me too with average daily use (1hr of phone calls, 50-ish text messages a bit of email and some internet at night, per day)

I'm still running 3G.
[Touch HD General] Parg:
My best usage is 53 hours. With one night BT on, one hour internet, half an hour w-lan, 45 minutes GPS, a little bit music and video and of course Phone and SMS
[Touch HD General] AndyCr15:
On a side note. How do I see battery as a proper percentage. When I hit 'power' in settings, I just get bars, where 1 bar is 10%...

Is there a small mod which will tell exact battery and maybe expected life, like all laptops tell you?
[Touch HD General] JanSchotsmans:
We have 2 HD's here at work and mine, which is mostly used for GPS/Mail/Wifi lasts me 2 to 3 days.

My boss', always has Wifi enabled, receives his mail on it, is on the phone more and longer then I care to try and count, his lasts a full 2 days.

His TYTN II, with the same usage would only last about 2 hours without charging.
[Touch HD General] defcon2000:
with normal use (push to mail, no wlan, about an hour talktime, read some sites of an ebook and hear 5-10 mp3s) I recharge every 1 1/2 - 2 days.

With that display and use of the features it's definitly ok for me. with hardcore usage I recharge in the evening, it's also ok, because then it's a usage like a laptop and a laptop have worst energy than the touch.

My old xda trion / tyn wasn't better than the touch HD.
[Touch HD General] ec30:
I find that direct push email is a big battery killer, I went into activesync schedule and set to 15 minutes instead. It doesn't try to maintain a server connection then. Also I turned auto-backlight off and set to the second lowest setting, not brilliant for outdoor daytime use but fine in an office.

My HD lasts a full day with 2 hours of sat nav, 1 hour of internet, emails checked every 15 mins, and 15 minutes of watching my pension disappear on the stocks tab.
[Touch HD General] luckyuser:
Yes there is! Works very nice for me .

[Touch HD General] AndyCr15:
Well, an update from me. Almost a week ago I hard reset my HD and just put back the apps I want. One of these was Tweak HD, which I made use of their advised tweaks including power saving ones.

I took my HD off charge yesterday at 1pm, have used it around 2 hours of music, 10-20 text messages and a little other use. Right now, almost 30 hours later I am at 50% still, which is a massive improvement on what it was doing before. I'll try leaving it till the morning to see if it can last :)

I've also upgraded my data package and I'm wondering about setting it to check e-mails every 30 minutes or so. How much drain will this likely put on the battery?
[Touch HD General] tkalli:
Much better than my Kaiser.

[Touch HD General] bruno18:
The v1.35 had a problem with my Touch PRO before: drain battery so fast, make device hotter than usual... When switching to HD, i dared not to try with that version but like its feature so much and gave it a try with new versions like 1.36 and now 1.37. IT works perfect and not drain battery anymore. You can try with it.
[Touch HD General] Wolfpaxx:
I think the battery of the Blackstone is just right!

First, I really have to deny that push-mail is a battery-killer. I have push-mail on 24/7 and if I don't do anything else, means a sunday w/o calls and me having better things to do than checking my mails, it looses 6% battery a day. And that's definitly not what I call a battery-killer!

But WLAN and GPS are the definite killers!

From my view I can't even understand why someone would leave WLAN on 24/7? I just enable it, when I need it... means never! Oh wait, only when I need a WLAN-router for my laptop... :-) (by the way: "WMwifirouter 1.25" is a great piece of useful software I recommend to everyone!)

Surprisingly, video playpack is not that intensive as I expected!

Watched 2 hours of Simpsons on my phone and the battery sank about 15%... I was expecting more!

So my opinion is: The battery of the Touch HD is fine.

Sure, longer would be better, but hey - we have to face it that there's no ultimate power source that lasts forever.
[Touch HD General] mightbme:
Battery drain issues

If your battery starts draining faster for no apparent reason.

Turn off phone.

Charge it completely.

Do this again over the next couple of charge cycles.

When I first got my phone it would drain in 3 - 4 hours. This fixed the problem. The problem happened again 6 months later. This fixed the problem again.

Also the radio version you use can make a massive difference.

Cheers

[Windows 11] davidmaxwaterman:
I don't use Windows much...but I could use a computer running it for testing.

I had inherited a computer from my parents. It should be just the job, but it only boots intermittently. I replaced the power supply, but it didn't solve the problem. So, now I'm considering a new mobo,etc.

The system does some 'power up' steps - it beeps and spins the CPU fan, and some leds come on; but there's a green led on the motherboard that constantly flashes. Nothing on the display.

However, I have it my mind that Windows will cause me pain if I change the motherboard underneath it. Is there any point in me trying? Will I have to reinstall Windows, perhaps even buy a new copy of it?

From a photo of the 'Intel Desktop Utilities' app the last time I had it boot successfully (some months ago now), I see that the motherboard is an Intel DH77DF, has an Intel Core i7-3770S CPU @ 3.10GHz, with 2 1600MHz DDR3 4GB DIMMs. The hard drive is an INTEL SSDSC2CW180A3.

Oh, I also see that it is running Windows 10 Pro 20H2 19042.1586 with something called a Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.4170.0 - installed on 4/8/2022 (I guess that's an American date, since it's in the future when read as a British date).

I guess someone can make sense of that lot.

Obviously, I don't want to replace anything if I can avoid it, but it does seem to be dying.

Any recommendations?

Regards,

Max.

I accidentally deleted /vendor folder from twrp, but i had the vendor folder backed up so i copied them and chmod everything. My device still doesn't boot, it just boot into fastboot. I tried everything, even recover stock boot/system/data but nothing works. Maybe it has something to do with symlinks in vendor, maybe it hasn't been copied when i backed it up. I really don't know.

Also i should mention that i haven't touched anything else then /vendor and ofc system/data/boot.

[G1 Android Development] strangethingz:
Being a fan of Linux, and an Ubuntu user, I guess I thought Android was going to be a lot more openly tweakable, but from looking over these threads it looks like it's actually not that easy to do things that I would have assumed would be easily accessible tweaks... like theme/appearance/fonts/icons, etc... In fact it looks like some pretty intense hacking is going on with slow progress in bypassing , etc...

Maybe I'm not understanding correctly. I don't have the G1, but my girlfriend does and I've been enjoying it from over her shoulder... I guess I just expected something more 'open' along the lines of what I've become used to with Ubuntu.

I kind thought Android would be to iPhone, what Linux OS is to Apple OS, but it definitely doesn't seem like that's the case. It seems like Android is just as locked down as iPhone but with fewer apps and not-as-slick interface for the same price as an iPhone.

I had been thinking about getting this phone... maybe I just need to wait for more apps to come out?

Any thoughts?
