Hi people someone knows how to find the localization files/options on the dream?

Are them stored on the Sqlite Database?
[G1 Android Development] blackknightavalon:
Settings>Wireless controls>Mobile networks

If you're talking about a current location, your phone detects that automatically via the SIM card.
[G1 Android Development] beartard:
I think by "localization" he might mean language and country settings.
[G1 Android Development] bassbox:
Maybe u both should carefully read his post again! And then remember we are in the "development" section! ... Sorry cant help on this topic..

It is really an improvement. Skype-skype calls work great, but when I try skypeout calls, the program just closes down. Anyone had this problem?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] christopherwoods:
I'm curious to know what other people experience in terms of battery life. I've just put a fresh 1500mAh battery into my phone, and I've flashed it with two ROMs in as many days.

I got average battery life out of the first ROM I tried (Schap's v4.31 Full), but I'm currently running with CRC's Release 13.3 Stable (Build 20270) and I can - literally - see the battery life ebb away in front of my eyes. From the moment I unplugged it, the battery went down to 99%, 98%, 97%... slowed down at 94%, but it's carried on going down.

The phone's only been unplugged for about 3 hours, with moderate usage (occasional use, installing a couple of apps, a lot of time just sitting by my computer) and already the battery is at 79% (one minute ago it was at 80%).

I can monitor the power consumption with BatteryStatus and it does seem to be using more power than you'd expect just idling - 43mA with the phone idle, bluetooth turned on and paired to my headset and the backlight on. With the backlight off completely, it's still using between 25mA and 50mA! Is this to be expected, or is something sucking the battery power up?

Is WM6.1 just a thirstier OS than WM6, or is CRC's ROM particularly resource intensive? I have done a little tweaking, but mostly doing things like turning power management ON (to lower SD card power usage) and installing a couple of extra apps (none of which are currently loaded in the background).

If people have a particular ROM which has very good battery life, please let me know - I'm interested to see what people are using and what kind of battery life everybody is getting.

Cheers

Battery

Where did you get a 1500MAH battery for a herm? i could only find 1350!!!

I'm using Black Satin. 6.1pro but it doesn't have anything fancy, like manilla 2d or stuff its really basic. With 3g turned OFF! the phone doesn't overheat. As soon as the phone gets a little hot the battery just drains for some reason. I believe that the 3d card when its turned on it must not have signal everywhere and as soon as the connection is broken if you step outside of the coverage area it tries to find the signal and BOOM! your phone is dead! battery just drains.

on the average day ill take it off the charger around 8am. and just leaving it on standby not doing anything its usually dead around 5pm...

And this is the Black satin rom so far out of all the roms i tried it has been the best for power consumption. There is a guide on the "Best" tested roms in the stickie... its a great starting point. Some of the top rated roms didnt work for me cause i needed to install some 3rd party software for work ... and they didnt work, im guessing cause there was some stuff that was stripped out.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] burkay:
it is not only about the rom. it is also about the battery you purchased.

I have an old original battery which is about 4 years old. I also have a cheap brand new battery I purchased from china. The 4 year old battery holds more power than the cheap brand new one. I found that the new batteries are not properly initialized, or that there is something wrong with how they report the remaining power. My new battery drops down to 60% percent very fast. Then it hangs there for a long time and then starts going down very fast again. In standby it gives me 2-3 days. With wifi turned on, I get about 20-30 minutes. The original battery gives me a couple hours even with wifi turned on.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] godofthesms:
what you say makes sense, when i called HTC about this overheating / Battery issue they told me that they didn't specifically make batteries. After reading a bunch of posts there seems to be different models from different countries of the hermes. After looking deeper into the battery issue there are also different manufacturer of batteries from different countries also. The thing is HTC can not tell you EXACTLY which on you need cause each operator has different standards for the phone some even modify the phone from HTC... When i called Expansys which was where HTC recommended i purchase the battery from they had 2 models. 1 that was 1300mah and 1350mah. I Opted for the "House" brand instead of the other one which was cheaper in price ... I guess this is the reason. Like memory when it is made in JAPAN its quality is not the same as KOREA.

:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] christopherwoods:
I agree with regards to the battery quality. That's why I only buy Cameron Sino 1500mAh batteries for my Hermes (I buy them from Morpeth Mobiles here in the UK, they also sell on eBay and I'm sure they'd ship international if you wanted to buy from them).

They handled a recent return excellently and I've been very happy with their service.

The nice thing about the 1500mAh batteries is that they fit inside the case without a replacement back cover...

I know that using 3G can suck the life out of our phones given the awful chipset (using it on GPRS only or in 3G with a very strong signal will always yield better results) but at the moment I'm not sure if it's a problem with this particular battery or with the ROM itself - I have two others with which I can do some comparisons, so I will be doing that later. However, the battery life today has been awful. I got home earlier, and less than 12 hours after being unplugged, my phone was down to 18% battery. Just awful, the worst battery life I've ever seen from my phone. I'm not sure whether it's the fact it's Windows Mobile 6.1 or whether it's a problem with this particular battery or the way the ROM has been cooked... I'll have to do some more experiments, but I know for sure that something's not right!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] godofthesms:
The roms Also do play a part i beleive, some use up more memory and have processes running.. this uses power. Its the same as a LAPTOP. The LT will not last forever.

But im really dissapointed with the Hermes. i had NON touch screen HTC's . s640 and S621 and they used to go for days on end without charging...

i herd some back feedback on these touch screen phones also ... about the life... but every time also the 3g would murder the battery life!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] christopherwoods:
Although on balance, I still don't think our phone does that badly... You realise that it's almost on-par with the more recent technology, particularly when you hear some of the battery life horror stories from iPhone users, who are dismayed that they can't get more than 12-15 hours' use out of their beloved phone when they attempt to do anything vaguely like USE it (push email, multimedia etc)...

The saga continues.

I may just buy a petrol generator on a small trolley and attach the whole thing to my belt. Now THAT's ultra portability. I could use my phone on 3G for days!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gardndj:
I picked up my Hermes from another xda member a week and a half ago. I flashed to CRC's stable 13.3, added HTC Home and a few other extras, nothing real system heavy or anything. Battery life was abysmal with bluetooth and 3g turned OFF, 3 email accounts syncing every 30 min, on the original 1350mah battery - I was lucky to last half a day.

I ordered a 3000mah extended battery, it arrived yesterday, I let it drain completely. It's fully charged and running now. I have bluetooth and 3g on, and my email accounts are syncing every 10 minutes. I will monitor the battery life over the next few days and report.

I too have noticed the battery meter being very eratic in CRC's stable rom for both batteries. I'm not sure if this is a battery issue or a rom issue. I may try turning 3g off as some have suggested and see if that yields better results.

My previous phone for 8 months was a Motorola Q9H, so I'm not exactly a noob to the winmo world. With the q's extended battery and bluetooth/3g on I was getting a good day and a half to two days with a rather large amount of data use in there. Honestly, as much as I love the upgrade to winmo pro, if the extended battery doesn't do the trick I'll be back to the moto for the remainder of my contract and the Hermes is going on ebay. Anyone with any suggestions or tips would be appreciated.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] godofthesms:
Thanks

Yep i just installed CRCs Release 13.3 Stable... Looks nice, but i think you are right .... im stuck with this clunker for now cause i need it for work but im waiting on a Touch diamond... As soon as my company can afford it! LOLOLOL

Let us know about the 3000ma bat... Is that the one with the HUGE back door that sticks out?

I seen that online and though to myself.... WTF the phone is already too big!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Anthony1312002:
What's your battery life like

I have an HTC TyTN that originally had Windows Mobile 5. I flashed to the rom to 6.1 pro and also noted a significant power drain that I didn't have with 5.0 or 6.0. My thoughts are that moving from 5.0 to 6.1 is much like going from Windows XP to Vista. The power demands are greater. At least that's my hunch.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] godofthesms:
Roms RULE!

Well i tried all these roms ... The Manilla roms look GREAT the touchflo is really cool!!!! But dam the phone doesnt have enuff ram or juice... So what happens if you get all kinds of bugs ect...

But if you try some of the other 6.1 roms like Black Satin or CRC which dont have touch flo ... the bat is not soo bad... The lite verisons of the roms can also be nice .... But they lack support for other software.

i prefer the classic Windows with the home cause you can use the Screen Lock feature ... specially for the HTC Herm ... i always had it in the pounch then all of a sudden i would pull it out and IE was open!!! or i was calling someone LOLOL that sucks!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] magix:
i have tried lots of roms that were developed here on xda.

the best battery life was using k's final wm6.0. it was unbeatable.

the other thing is that it also depends on the type of storage version of the rom itself. the big storage roms eat your battery for breakfast but you get better performance.

if you have more today plugins they also eat up the battery

you also should, before flashing your new rom, flash the original rom. after that you flash the normal rom.

you can also check the processes running in the backgroung, maybe there is something left over that occupies the processor.

3g is a big drainer especially if you get to an area where the signal is weak and dissapears. then the phone constantly tries to find the 3g and your battery drains quickly. normaly, when i don't go online as much, i keep 3g swiched off.

now i'am using the new wm6.5 beta and i get more than one full day of battery life of normal usage. phone, mail, internet...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gardndj:
Yea the extended battery turns the Hermes into a tank. It does have a nice feel to it in your hand though, and my Body Glove universal case ($15 walmart) actually fits, although its snug.

If the battery doesn't give me the life I'm looking for from CRC's 6.1, I am considering flashing to the stripped down version of ATT's 6.0 rom, or perhaps trying out the new 6.5 hybrid build from josh. Who knows, maybe CRC's rom is just a battery suck (which I can't imagine it is, it's pretty stripped down/light weight). I guess we will see after a few days here.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] godofthesms:
NICE!

i would like to try 6.5 .... but i cant seem to find any links with screen shots... If it has any sort of Touch flo ... Forget it ...

Do you have a link to 6.5 WWE?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] christopherwoods:
Interesting about the comments re: big storage eating battery, and interesting also that other people using the same ROM as I am currently are also experiencing battery life problems.

I just swapped out the battery in my device - from the brand new 1500mAh battery to the older (identical) 1500mAh battery, freshly charged. As soon as I got to the Today screen, the battery was already down to 97% - and just sitting on my knee ticking over, it's already gone down to 94%. 93% now!

This is ridiculous. The battery life in WM6.0 is the same (just as bad? ;)) as the original WM5 ROM I had on it, it's mad to think that a simple point release of an Operating System can cause such a massive difference to battery life.

However, this ROM may have Big Storage enabled, so that could be sucking the battery life out of the poor thing. Does anybody have any pointers or links to previous discussiong about how (or why) Big Storage drains the battery more than a regular ROM?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pickiki:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=461680

the best 65 ROM so far and with relatively good battery life.

i had the same problem with the battery life and came to realize that NO rom is good enough in thus area.

i guess that is a small price to pay for free OS:D

i would also recommend you to try the original ROM for your country or WWE and check his battery life for a few days - you will soon find out that the more application you will install you'll get more processes that are running in the background = less battery life.

if you can live with the default WM - you wull get the best battery life.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] christopherwoods:
Hehe, unfortunately the ROM which came with my phone was from my phone provider - T-Mobile UK - and it is awful! Broken Bluetooth, huge lag on the phone because of all the preinstalled crap, almost no free device memory, slow to respond generally... All of these new ROMs I've flashed make my device feel so quick again! It's amazing what a small change can do.

Has anybody cooked a WM6 ROM without the honeycomb Today screen interface? And is it totally impossible to go back to WM6/6.1 after you flash 6.5?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] godofthesms:
Has anyone tried this EVIL rom? 6.5? It saus dont synch with VISTA... i have vista...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] godofthesms:

Oh **** my phone is screwed! LOLOL

Installed 6.5 evil v10.. hehe works YEH! but when i connect to my Windows box "Vista" the phone freezes! i gotta hard boot!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOT GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gardndj:
OK the Evil page specifically says Vista sync is not supported. So did you actually set up a connection and try to sync in wmdc, or did you simply connect your phone to your vista box and choose not to set up a connection? I’m curious, because I’d like to flash the evil 6.5, but I don’t need to set up a sync with my Vista box, I just need to be able to connect for file transfer purposes.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] godofthesms:
Fuxed now!

I flashed to Evil rom ... There isnt anything really all the great about it... a sort of slow interface... the picture in the back ground is cool .... but .... not for me!

After flashing it would not Synch.... with VISTA... it would freeze the phone. when i connected i didnt try going to the phone at all but it was dead... froze like ice!

I re-flashed crc at home on my XP machine... I prefer the classic home.

i see 6.5 being nice with a TOUCH phone...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] boak:
mya battery also sucks

it is only 30minutes if I go online for internet on 3G/HSDPA

but for chat it is only 2 hours.

standby not running any 3G, it is 2 days

and using manilla 2d is too many drain the battery

I've heard that wm6.5 is strength but weird, we can't go back to wm 6.0 or 6.1 if we install the wm 6.5, is it true or not?

thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] christopherwoods:
I've heard that too, but I'm not brave enough to try it on my trusty Hermes ;)

Going back to the WM6/6.1 ROM battery life discussion, I've just flashed K's WM6.0 Final onto my device (thanks to Magix for the recommendation! and WOW does it sync fast with ActiveSync!) I managed to set the phone up really fast as well, synced all my contacts and calendars, configured all my apps exactly how I have them and done a few registry tweaks. The phone is now ready to rock and roll.

I'm using a freshly charged battery (of course) - I'm going to take it out with me today and watch how the battery life goes down, and I'll report back with some findings.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] godofthesms:
Maybe!

Going back is false... If you have Hardspl or SPL installed you can flash to 6.5 evil... Then flash back to whatever you want. I went to 6.5 yesterday then went back to 6.1 last night.

The OS of 6.5 has minor changes... but still the same... But i guess it supports the new Touch flo that htc released? i dunno... Im stickign to my 6.1 its working fine .... im able to dissable 3g and thats what i want
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gardndj:
3000mah battery (CRC stable 13.3) - First full charge:

Day 1 - Phone on for 12 hours. 3g and BT turned on entire time. Did a moderate amount of browsing with Skyfire, updated 30 newsfeeds in Beyondpod about 10 times, listened to music for 30 min. About 2 hours spent using active sync over BT. Also used ICS with my laptop for about a half hour. Battery was 60% at 1:00AM. I turned the phone radio and BT off for the night but left the phone itself on. Woke up at 8:00AM, battery around 50%. Turned radio, 3g, BT back on. Pretty much the same usage today. Currently 1:00PM, battery @ 30%. I'm about to hit up my schools wifi network, so we'll see how long this lasts. I'll update tonight.
[Touch HD General] Feiku:
I have an annoying problem with my Touch HD. When I get out of the 3G network range, the phone seems to switch to EDGE but the Internet connection terminates (the title bar icon switches from range bars to the antenna image). Even after I disconnect manually (the phone still thinks it's connected), it won't negotiate GPRS/EDGE connection until I reach 3G network range again or I turn off the radio and log into GSM network again. The other way (2G -> 3G) works fine.

I have the original radio version 1.09.25.14 and ROM 1.14.405.3 (22273) WWE. I've tried different band settings (auto and UMTS 2100 + GSM 900/1800) but it doesn't help.

Do I have to flash the radio? I don't really want that, apart from that problem the phone's working fine. The problem annoys me a lot, especially when I'm listening to network radios in my car.

I've searched the forums but haven't found anything on that.

Is it possible to take the HyperDragon IV IOLITE ROM for the HTC Kaiser and load it onto my ATT Fuze?

Would the phone still work or would it have a major panic attack and turn into a rock on its first boot up?

hello, you should be in the diamond forum, this is the raphael forum, you cannot flash a tytn rom to the fuze, go to the diamond forum, rom developement, then read the wiki, get up to date, then ask the questions, but again do not flash.

lupe
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Confused Stu:
While the original post does mention "HTC Diamond" at the end, he's asking about flashing the ROM on his Fuze, so he's in the right forum.

However, as overhaulengines said, NO - you cannot flash a non-Raphael ROM onto a Raphael. If you did manage somehow to get it on, your Fuze would no longer be a Fuze, it would be a brick. :)

Most chef's that host a LITE ROM also have a cab repository.

Also the search button does wonders - The google search is quite powerful for finding cabs. Just search opera 15613 .cab in google and you'll get a .cab for Opera 15613. Search for anything and .cab.
