[HD2 General] Noam23:
I have no clue what is going on here. Yesterday I closed all programs before I went to sleep. When I woke up at morning I discovered a 45% battery drainage!. When I looked at the task manager, I saw that Opera Browser was active (when I went inside I saw a white screen), even though I closed everything before I went to sleep !.

Could it be that during night the HD2 is surfing for Porn ?, this could explain things...

I used Battlog for several nights last week to log the battery drainage and see what's causing it, the weird thing is that during those nights I saw no battery drainage (just ~5%). Call me crazy but I'm starting to think that somehow the HD2 knew it was being logged those nights and hence kept a low profile.
[HD2 General] abucas:
During my 2 week xmas break, where I was camped I had no phone service so I had my HD2 in airplane mode (I kept it on as I use it as a clock and occasionally for music). Three times I went to bed with the phone at > 90% charge, and by the morning the phone was giving battery low warnings < 10%.

This only happened 3 times in the two weeks all other nights there was very little battery drain.

I do have GAlarm installed (but no alarms active) and I was thinking that maybe the midnight wakeup option may have something to do with the problem, but it does not explain why it did not occur every night.

I have now been back in service for a week and I have deliberately kept it off charge during the night, but so far, and even though all phone functions are on (2G only) the very dramatic battery drain has not reoccurred.
[HD2 General] lightning f1:
Hi everyone,

I have had my HD2 for about a week now and no battery issues so far. Infact this is the third day im using it without having to recharge. The battery is showing at 37%.

To be fair I dont use the phone too much, I have made some phone calls, I check my emails, get weather updates, do some net surfing on the go. The phone is also left on over night.

Now just a few questions for you people who are having problems:

1) how long have you had the phone?

2) how much customisation have you done, installed many power hungry apps lurking in the background?

3) what was the last application you used before leaving the phone over night?

Im trying to identify any common patterns. Is it a battery fault/ or software related this is what needs identifying.
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
If that was addressed to me, then I have a stock t-mobile UK ROM (1.43). I do have a fair amount of automated net access going on - checks for emails every 5 minutes, and weather updates every 15. But really, if doing that will cause that kind of battery drain, then that's a software design flaw, IMO.

I'm not using G-Alarm.
[HD2 General] NeilM:
I don't see any problems with battery use either. Have gone from 1.43 to 1.61 and now to Freyberry's Light.

I've not used mine much today as I'm in the office but it has been set for Push Email, 3G on and received/sent 5 SMS messages. It's gone from 95% at 7.30am to 89% now (1.45pm) = about 1% per hour.
[HD2 General] alex fung:
Do you have any applications running on the SD card? I suspect that all incidents of my drains are related to applications running from the card or writing data to it.
[HD2 General] the-uki:
This is not a very user-friendly solution. You need to spend 5 minutes every evening and morning enabling/disabling everything. How un-ergonomic this device is.
[HD2 General] -Vulture-:
I had this drain too. My solution was uninstalling G-Alarm, that solved it for me.
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
As an experiment last night I tried switching absolutely everything off: location service, anything that might use the data connection, and 3G, in fact everything except the 2G phone connection. In that state it used about 2% of the battery per hour (I think - in the morning it had crashed and I had to take the battery out to get it to switch on, and I'm not sure at what point it crashed). I suppose 2% per hour of stand-by isn't utterly appalling, but it isn't exactly good either.
[HD2 General] vdelab:
Hi all,

I had an issue for the last two nights (we will see for this night) with my HD2 eating about 70% of power in 6 hours.

I could not find any comm active (no BT, no Wifi). PA was forcing the phone in 2G (as I do everynight, to save power....).

So all I could think of are

- GPS service running, for some app (which one) (posted in the GPS french sub-forum). There was no app running there. Is there a way to see the activity of the GPS chip, if it is using current or not?

- I noticed Activesync running process with HTC Taskman. I killed it, but it re-appeared... and killed it again....

Why would it keep popping up like this. I do not have push mail or so...the only usage I do of activesync is when cneected in SUB to my PC... never over the air...

Thanks for your ideas, especially about the active sync part...

Battery drain problem

I had that problem with G-profile installed on my HD2, solution was uninstall G-profile :-)
[HD2 General] d4rey:
hi, this didn´t work for me, I did as instructed, but the battery drains still a lot and it is definitily because of G-Alarm. I wanted to buy it as it is cool, but now... :(

I know why the battery drains out

Hi guys.

I had the same problem with masive battery drain.

I flashed the radio rom, and that helped some.

But when i removed the micro sd card, the battery stopped draining.

I`ve tried 2 ea different micro sd cards, but the battery still drains.

So here is my suggestion:

1. Remove the sd card from your HD2.

2. CHarge tha phone to 100%.

3. Leave it at the desk during the night.

I experienced 4% battery drop during 5,5 hours while asleep, and the phone was not in fligt mode...

Now i`m investigating why the battery drains while the memory card is in place.

Might be software related - i hope...

Hope this helps. :)
[HD2 General] airwater9:
I tried doing a error check on it. The PC never finds an error however once reinserted back into the HD2 the problems disappear only to return once I take the card out of the HD2 and copy something new onto it and reinsert it again.

There could be a bug with the microsd handler which could be related to power saving features that people have enabled on it.
[HD2 General] Derbyman32:
I also had a big drop overnight with my battery. I did a SD format and then put everything back on the SD card that I needed. My battery went from losing as much as 5 to 6 percent and hour to only using about 6 percent all night. I had called T-Mobile to complain about the battery and they did agree to send me a new battery. While I was waiting for the new battery to arrive I did the SD format and my battery magically started working better. I now have a new battery that arrived today and I will test it and see if it makes any difference. Just wanted to share the SD format thing and see if anyone else has had this experience.

Hey Guys,

Recently got my new HD2 been messing around with everything on it then when actually coming to proper work it has failed :(

The new sense calender looks lovely makes it very easy to create appointments and very quick, BUT they forgot one VITAL option . . . To be able to add contacts from your company directory in the attendies section?

The windows calender has it because it uses the regular contacts picker which as standard has a company directory button built in.

Any one else found this to be an issue?

Thanks,

Ash
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] sixtythreechevy:
Welcome to HTC. Your GAL (Company Directory) is now inaccessible from your phone. Every other phone in the world can do this very easily. We are doing nothing to fix the problem and we will not release a statement to say, "Sorry, but we don't know how to fix it." You have two choices now. Take the blue pill and pay $20 to purchase Touchdown for Exchange and everything will go back to the way it was or take the red pill and root your phone and install an AOSP ROM that actually allows you to do this. The choice is yours but remember there is no going back. Actually, I take that back. You can just unroot and go back to stock. Violate your TOS!

Oh and btw, don't bother calling because we will simply tell you that we will put your issue on a spreadsheet for the engineers to look at and there will never be a resolution as they won't actually look at it.

Also, don't bother trying to call Verizon as they will tell you that this is an HTC issue and they don't support the software only the hardware.

Windows 6.5 with touch Flo
[General Questions and Answers] TonyJ999:
OK I’m hoping I’m in the right forum for this…

For a long time now I’ve been using PocketCM for my SMS and contact information. This is a great little program which fulfils all my needs wonderfully but recently I’m starting to have one big issue. The newer ROMS now coming out are starting to use HTC’s messaging system and this does not sit very well with PocketCM. Yes, you can open the program and browse contacts ok, but once you try and open any SMS it crashes out. Now I have reported this on the author’s web site a few times but he has said that as he has no device with these ROMS loaded on he can’t reproduce the issue – which is fair enough.

My question though, and bear in mind I’m not a programmer but can fathom things out if given enough info, is how can I help him? Yes, I can load one of the new ROMS onto my device (which I do a lot) but is there some way I can run some sort of diagnostics that will help him track the issue down??

My fear is that over time with more and more new devices coming out that use this new messaging system then that this great program will simply not work any more. The Leo for instance has this problem already and it is one reason I’m not upgrading at the moment.

Any assistance would be appreciated!!

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] novaractic:
Hi, recently I signed up for 3. Doing that I received a Sony Ericsson phone. However, I would like to use my old HTC touch Diamond, where I have Telia as operator. The phone is unlocked but when I plugg in my simcard, the phone can not find it. As I understand, one needs a 3 ROM in order to use the diamond with 3, is that correct? Or are there any hacked ROMs that are better than 3's that one can download.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] vtec_screamer:
Hi,

I own a HTC Diamond and am using it with a 3 UK simcard with no problems at all. I bought unlocked and I've even been using some of the ROMs available around here. Never had any problems with any of them. I'm not an expert and I may be wrong, but it sounds like you don't have your mobile properly unlocked. Did you try any other simcard on it after unlocking it? Are you using 3 UK or another 3 network?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mugglesquop:
Location?

CDMA or 'normal' Diamond?

any original ROM can use any network

anyone know a way this works properly,

basically the registry has been tweaked to save mail to storage card, but when you reboot the phone the storage card changes to storage card2,

ive disabled sense/touch flo,

nothing else is is booting up in windows mobile

before i reboot though the mail does store on storage card, but when i reboot it makes a folder on the phone memory

how can i stop this once and for all??
[General Topics] ctman:

[General Topics] zetagnosis:

I have same problem.... no solution ... still working
[General Topics] rumpleforeskin:
I don't think there is a fix for this, its due to the way the hardware works on newer HTC devices.

Problem is when booting the phone, the registry is read before the the SD card is ready.

So when the phone reads "storage card" as a location and the card is not ready the phone will make a folder called storage card.

Now when the SD card is finally ready it want to call itself "storage card" but the name is allready taken, so now it names itself "storage card2"
[General Topics] nickkyboy36:
ive sorted this when i had this problem

open up resco file explorer and you'll see that it sees the device memory, storage card and storage card 2. 'storage card' will be empty, so just delete it, then reboot. (dont rename storagecard 2).

when you turn it back on, everythings in order again
[General Topics] fcastano:
Old problem requires new solution

Hi,

This problem is happening in the old WM5 and previous.

The say to avoid the creation of Storage Card before the mounting of the real SD was simply removing the "messaging" application from the Today Screen.

Now, the solution seems to be different.

I hope we can find it soon.

[General Topics] fcastano:
Can you confirm that you have all mails in the storage card?

Please note that only attachments can be moved to Scard without this problem, and it is when you try to move all mails that after a reset the Store card 2 issue happens.

Regards
[General Topics] Colb:
FOUND THE ANSWER!!

After many reboots etc.,

1.Delete the storage card on the device!

2.Eject the storage card on the phone and reinsert (while phone is still on). (check filemanager shows Storage Card Only)

3.Hit Windows Start, go to email, then menu, then options, then storage.

4. Tick "When available, use storage card to store attachments", Click OK.

5.Restart HTC Sense and Voilla all is fixed!
[General Topics] fcastano:
Are you sure your have now all maiLs in Sdcard, or only the attachments?
[General Topics] arash91m:
Hi all,

i found the solution! (actually all post help me find out).

SOLUTION:

1- remove your SD-Card from phone.

2- open file manager, you should see "STORAGE CARD". if you open it, you can see there are some folders for email (inobx.********).

3- delete all. "STORAGE CARD" & "STORAGE CARD2" &...

4- now insert your SC-Card. it will be "STORAGE CARD" :cyclops:

good luck

Awesome, thanks! I'll contribute a bit shortly - just wanted to say thanks for getting this thread going, it's nice to have some stuff to do on my phone!

~Eric
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] eknutson:
For the 'Genres' category, I use the following:

Puzzle, cards, board, action, console (emulator), word

'Useless' seems to fit fine for things like "Diamond Beer" "hdWobble" etc, as they aren't games per. se., but useless things to do on your phone.

I'd also like to see a column for 'resolution.' One of my favorite games is 'pipes' but it's VGA - so there's space at the bottom of the screen. I'd imagine that settings of QVGA, WQVGA, VGA and WVGA would indicate that there are 'considerations' for these resolutions - either they don't take up the full screen or they need to run w/ one of the display adjusters.

I think a link / description for some of the more complicated setups is in order, perhaps in post 4 or 5 - things like 'k for Rapheal', WVGA Graphics Fix, and how to set up and run Morph Gear. This would make it nice for a one-stop-shop to load up your phone w/ games.

Finally, and this is way out there and may be a lot more trouble than it's worth, some kind of rating system. 1-5 'stars' would be tough to track, but you could get a feel from feedback if a game is 'highly recommended' 'sorta recommended' and 'not really very popular'

So, here's some contributions from what I have and use that I didn't see in your list / haven't been updated in the first post yet:

Title (Direct link) - Link - Developer -------- WM versions - Genre --- Res - Images - YouTube ------- G-sensor?

Tangled Bugs -------- Link -- xflib ----------- All? -------- puzzle -- VGA - Link --- N/A ------------ No

Pipes --------------- Link -- xflib ----------- All? -------- puzzle -- VGA - Link --- N/A ------------ No

This takes a while to edit, so I'll add a few more later after doing just enough at work to look busy ;)
