This isn't my first foray into these HTC devices. I've been using them for nearly 2 years now, and I know the battery life on these devices isn't what it is on something like my old RAZR. I'm just fine with that; since the Tilt does so much more, I don't expect the charge to last a week like my RAZR did. But this drain while using the phone is driving me nuts.

FYI, I know to keep WiFi and GPS off, and to use KaiserTweak to shut down data connections when they're not being used. If I don't use the phone or surf, the battery will easily last me 2 days, and that's with checking 4 e-mail accounts every hour, and with SBSH PocketWeather getting updates every 2 hours. But talk on the phone, and it's a different story. I talked to my wife for about 30 minutes last night and went from 80% to 20% battery level.

The battery is only about 7-8 months old. Still, I ordered a new 1600ma battery last week, and it should be here in a day or two. I'm hoping that solves the problem.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
It's possible that the battery you have now is under warranty. (if you bought the phone new)

good luck.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] samcham:
Unfortunately, it was a refurb, and the warranty expired a long time ago. The new battery wasn't exactly a budget killer. :cool:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cypherstream:
Well my battery seems to be working now.

Phone is no longer hot all the time, and my utility says I'm using between 1 and 64 mA. That's much better than the 350+ mA it was sucking before.

I didn't do a damn thing different either. Didn't change any settings for the radios, didn't reflash, etc..

Some people think that the GPS get's stuck in the "on" position and there's no way to turn it off, short of opening and closing GPS Aware programs repeatedly until your current usage drops in the sub 100 mA range.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tinmanjo:
Always discharge your battery fully as possible at least 1 a week to ensure your battery last longer, lots of charges above the threshold will diminish your batteries life and capacity. The Kaiser is a powerful device and it is obvious to anyone that this requires power to run it, so the battery wont last for days. :-(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
HUH???????

These are Lithium batteries, we aren't in the 90's anymore buddy.. My phone lasts for at least 2 days and sometimes 3 (the phone is over a year old too)..

Welcome to the year 2009

"1. Battery Memory - When I first got my new cellphone, my friend recommended to fully drain the battery before recharging it. His reasoning was connected to the idea of battery memory. Allowing the battery to fully discharge then recharging to max, supposedly gives you the complete battery capacity. Otherwise, if you simply charged from the half way point to max battery capacity, the battery would treat the half way point as the empty point, thus cutting your battery capacity in half.

Problem is battery memory doesn’t apply to Lithium batteries, this advice was meant for Nickel based batteries. Fully discharging your Lithium battery frequently can actually be quite harmful to your battery’s health, possibly rendering it completely unusable if energy levels go too low.

The good news is today’s lithium batteries have a safety circuit in place to insure the battery doesn’t reach the point of no return. The safety circuit isn’t fool proof of course, if you leave your battery completely drained for a few days, even the circuit’s protective measures won’t save it.

"

INFACT it's recommended to leave a little bit of a charge before charging or storing.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Chainfire:
Be that as it may, when you get a new battery you still have to use it for a few weeks before the phone reports battery levels accurately. The phone may still shut down when WM thinks it's almost empty, regardless if it's actually empty or not. Just try it, battery life improves over the first few weeks of usage, and your battery level readings will get more stable (instead of dropping to 50% in 10 minutes and then proceeding to stay there for 6 hours).

BTW my kaiser lasts about 3 days as well, with fairly heavy usage.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
No fair, I want a bazillion stars next to my name too.

I Think this guy has had the phone and battery for a little while, so the few weeks thing might not be an option. (well at least the battery he was posting about)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tinmanjo:
As refered to your reply, i didnt mean discharge fully completely i meant the cut off point would stop you anyhow, i meant to bring it to about 10%, i found that using the battery until it reaches 10-12% far by decreases battery drain when it is fully charged again, this is only 1 in a while though not frequently. I understand lithuim-ion doesnt have a memory effect problem, but there is such thing as variable current influencing different cells which can either benefit or make it worst, there is a lot of debate as to whether this improves it or not.

Great tip, keep it cool and away from your pocket pants because heat kills it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
Dude thats no fun to keep it out of your pocket,
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] samcham:
Update

My new 1600ma battery arrived yesterday. With a full charge, I talked over 90 minutes last night, and the level only dropped to about 90% or so. With some reasonably heavy surfing, and being off the charger all night, it was down to about 80% this morning. It dropped fairly quickly to about 40% after reasonably heavy use this morning, so it's back on the charger.

I realize that the new battery may cause inaccurate levels in the first few weeks, but at this point I have to say the problem was the battery. A 90 minute phone call would have all but drained my old one.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GTX2009:
i have the same problem with my kaiser: my battery won't last until the end of each day....

i call a lot and check my email every 45min.

is there any tip you can give me to solve this?

Turn off 3G

If using pull email set to a longer time or manual check for mail

Pretty much the answers on the thread.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] himalayasplaya:
yea turning off 3g definitely gives you an increase. I installed the diamond comm manager so I could do this. I have noticed only a minimal drop in battery life.

I frequently use Motorola`s charger for my phone.

I believe it's stadards USB voltage but I am not sure.

Never had any issues with those anyway...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] Antzor:
Just make sure whatever youre plugging your raphael into has the same output as the charger that came with the phone... (normal USB)

I found this out the hard way (plugged phone into an old mobile battery powered "universal" charger) and had to send it to the repair centre for a fried motherboard. The phone still worked, but the battery drained in a couple hours while the device reached dangerous temperatures.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] wolframio74:
this its part of rom not the software xD
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] ADB100:
does this actually work?

I have played about with this and have never actually got the USB memory part to work. It activates and Windows sees a memory card has been attached, however it cannot be read. I have used the OEM package available on the site and included it in my ROM, if there are any tricks to getting it to work I would be interested?

[Networking] eras2r:
I have an asterisk box on my internal network and I use AGEphone as a SIP voip client on my HTC Fuze. For the asterisk box I have 2 different DNS entries. My internal DNS server points to the internal IP, and my public DNS server points to the External (NAT) IP. This is so that I can connect via Wifi on my internal LAN, and connect externally though the internet when on an outside Wifi or plain old 3G.

My problem is that for some reason my phone cannot resolve the external DNS name of my asterisk server. I cannot figure out why. If I connect to the internal Wifi and use my internal DNS it works just fine. However if I connect to AT&T's 3G and use the internet, I can not resolve that name. It is not a problem with my external DNS server because this works for my laptop just fine as well as nslookups going against it. So my question is...

It this a problem with the phone caching DNS names or is this an issue with AT&T's assigned DNS servers?

Is there a way to capture the packet off of a WinMo device so I can open it up in wireshark and see what it's trying to do?

Any help is appreciated.

[Networking] arsmithsr:
It would appear that you phones software is not going to the secondary DNS it sounds like it is looking for the primary and never going on a computer you can force this issue not sure about the phone.
[Networking] pluckyus:
try to reorder the dns, dns1 to internal dns2 to external (and reorder)
[Networking] eras2r:
Appears to have been an issue with the ATT DNS servers. The issue has gone away.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] egk-69:
eeehh, what do you want us to tell you?!, from my point of view the Fuze its better than the Tilt in every aspect.

its smaller, looks better, better screen, better specs, better everything? (who knows)

I had a Tilt for 1 year and i exchange it for the Fuze, and man i love the fuze!:D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] belezeebub:
I know it seems like a odd question but we have 115 Fuze at work and people are always complaining they liked the tilt better or they hate the finger prints the fuze seems to attract but then again I will bet my last dollar we have some of the more complaining people on the planet in our marketing department they switched from the tilt to the Moto-Q because they wanted that one and it was "OH SO MUCH BETTER" then they went Fuze,

seeing I have never even seen a fuze in real life and seeing as how I want to avoid going to marketing like a sain man wants to avoid jail I figured I would ask here.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] The Jack of Clubs:
theres a bajillion posts just like this. i never liked the tilts tilt, and frankly the tilt is quite ugly. theres a thousand reasons to get the fuze. it is better in every way. youll make your own decision though.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] rexian:
Tilt was the reason I lived an extra year (after the contract) with my 2125 and then got a Curve 8310 temporarily as Fuze was delayed. Except for the GPS, everything else seems better in Fuze. If I could trade a used Tilt for a new Fuze (with contract), I'd do it in a flash.

HOWEVER, I just powered on my tilt yesterday to try out winmo 6.5 and I forgot how much of difference the Fuze makes... It's Nicer looking, feeling and operates better. I could never go back to using my Tilt after owning the Fuze.

I like the FUZE if only for the stoarge and speed. I loved the Tilt. I hate having to use the stylus for most things on the FUZE. If the next level is the FUZE with a tilted screen with a scroll wheel, I'd be happy.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] l3it3r:
The next level is the TP2 which has a tilted screen, but no wheel.. I ALMOST miss the wheel, but the capacitive screen on the fuze has turned out to be really useful as well as the tochflo on-screen scrolling.

Hi,

The youtube panel is really great and I use it on a daily basis.

However, I noted that 18+ content is not displayed.

Is there a way to enable this?

Going to the opera browser and going to the youtube website is not an option as the flash 3.1 is not yet stable and opera crashes a lot when using flash.

Thanks a lot for your help!
[XPERIA X1 General] dogans:
I think you have to be logged in to view 18+ content.

Haven't tried the youtube panel, but if there is a way to log in, you will have to do that.

Youtube.com works that way.
[XPERIA X1 General] Sfkn2:
There is no login feature for the youtube panel/program, I don't think.

However, you can download flash lite 3.1 and use it through the Opera browser instead.

or you could log into m.youtube.com and stream it

i dont think the penal allows logging in...

Hi guys,

first of all I would like to congratulate all of you for apps & info. The phone would be a disappointment for me if xda-developers didn't exist.

As I am a newbie in the winmo family I need some info. I want to install touch flo (I don't care which edition, as long as it is a cab) and I have some questions:

1. which cab should I try? Please don't propose any roms, I am not ready for that step yet :(. I want a stable and not battery-thirsty version, don't care if the best would be 2D or having to wait for touch flo 3D 2.

2. Can I install it on the memory card? If yes, do you know what are the pros/cons?

3. Will I be able to uninstall it and how?

4. Any other advice???

As I have noticed on the many touch flo related threads, there are a lot of people having the same questions. Please help us all! :) :) :)

Thanks in advance
[XPERIA X1 General] orelsi:
My personal and honest opinion follows.

1 - Install nothing. Touch Flo sucks big time. (great job to the people who ported it to the x1, but the app itself sucks)

2 - See point 1.

3 - As far as i know it cannot be installed and you have to do a hard reset. My info is outdated though. Maybe with the newer version you can do it???? Again see point 1.

4 - See point 1.
[XPERIA X1 General] alias_neo:
Agreed

I ran it for a little while, but the performance was appauling, a cooked ROM with it should be faster because it's in the ROM and works differently.

Without TouchFlo my Windows folder takes 3 seconds to load, with it, the Windows folder takes well over 30 seconds.

I decided to just install some simple things like the task manager, the volume control and the mp3 trimmer. Kept everything else stock and just installed some nice HomeScreen plugins to make it do what i want.

Even if you get TouchFlo, they aren't all landscape compatible, only tyhe new TouchFlo 2(?) and as far as i know even with those some things like the cammera buttons (on screen, not physical) don't work.
[XPERIA X1 General] guap:
1- try itje's manilaHD cab. you'll find in this forum

2- no

3- yes, same way as all programs (always DO a backup before you install something huge or intrusive like tflo3d, I suggest spb backup)

4- I simply love tflo3d and suggest you to try a rom with new manila cooked in. It's faster for interface and for all the rest as cooked roms comes with all brand new build and drivers. go trough the forum, read and flash... don't be scared, just follow the procedures ;)
[XPERIA X1 General] guap:
lol, it's obvious... you have a 50% number of files in it... manila installs itself in windows directory -_-'

manila2 roms from itje and jackleung works flawlessy. please don't give incorrect info ;)
[XPERIA X1 General] skycamefalling:
Yeah, the ROMS work fine but the cabs outthere are crab. They are far from being stable, fast or useable.

I prefer the SE panel because all the information is on one page there without the need of flipping around.

My suggestion: If you really want TF3D, then flash your phone with a custom ROM (Itje's for English language, YYYYY has mad a fine ROM in German). That is the only way to have a fast and stable TF3D and also the option of using the panels!
[XPERIA X1 General] alias_neo:
Lol

Well obviously I know this, otherwise why would I make a reference about how it takes significantly longer to load the windows folder?

But 100% more files? Surely then it takes 100% longer to load, not 1000%.

And I gave no incorrect info, I said "they aren't all landscape compatible, only tyhe new TouchFlo 2(?)" - The question mark means I wasn't entirely sure on the name, so it's Manila 2, all the same to me.

Also, "and as far as i know even with those some things like the cammera buttons (on screen, not physical) don't work." - This means I'm not entirely sure if this is the case and it should be looked into.

and Finally "manila2 roms from itje and jackleung works flawlessy." - I specifically remember the OP asking for a cab and not a ROM. Which is where my information was directed.

:D
[XPERIA X1 General] FrezoreR:
hmm why would they install it in the windows folder and not in windows/manilla/ or something?

it's not a secret that filesystems on embedded devices are generally slow :P
[XPERIA X1 General] vector4agn:
Thanks

Thanks to everybody!

I'll probably backup everything and start trying cabs and roms.
[XPERIA X1 General] jackleung:
Well, I think Guap is mostly right and you simply know nothing what you really talking about.

Let me give you some fact:

1. First, you got to understand it's "non rom" files under /Windows tax more on performance. A clean WM has only about ~20 "non rom" files under \Windows,

TF3D 2 alone

(not including all the complicated dependence like camera, album, audio manager ..etc) put

2219 files

to /Window if using cab (TF3D 1 is ~ 2000 files). Therefore, it's normal it's take 1000% more time.

2. From your words, it simply show you did not try enough custom roms before you made yr comment.

All my rom

(from 2.2 to 2.7) do not have camera button problem. Obeviously your "as far as i know" isn't far enough.

I stated earlier in other thread already. If you really want to use TF3D (v1 or v2), pick an custom rom and forget about CAB. Using a cab for TF3D is simply hiting yr toe w/ a rock because you will be disappointed by the speed and compatibity issue.

I have this beloved device and after installing duttys rom it becomes so much better. however the people at orange wanna charge me a fortune for data so i told them to stick it.

trouble is i still wanna use email / weather functions. is there any program i can install or setting i can use to get these programs to only connect to my local wireless network instead of constantly trying orange and then coming up with a failure.

i know i could leave the wireless on but this would chew up my battery pretty quickly.

any ideas
