I have this battery + cover too.

Because it's bigger, I find it easier to press the hardware buttons on the bottom of the front of the Hero. THe only drawback is the total volume in your pocket, but that's just a minor point.

Also, flashing Modaco's 3.1 Rom and the newest RADIO Rom, the phone lasts for about 6-7 days with normal use (wifi/3g on when i need it, some regular phonecalls/texts)
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] ICO187:
i have the same battery & case but never used it. i do use the back up battery
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] nprussell:
I recently bought one of these. The difference in battery life I'm getting now is ridiculous. Serious improvements over the stock battery.

It is, however, bloody ugly from the side.

You do get used to it though.

I actually swap between the two batteries. I use my stock battery for a typical working day (ie - Wake up, work, home), but if I'm going on a trip overnight, or out for the day at the weekend, I'll switch to the fat beast.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] idroid84:
Anyone post pictures of back and side please? thankyou.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] aziz831:
Did you buy it from ebay? Cuz when i tried searching for this battery and case I only get one result and its a company in UK.:o

[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] idroid84:
Thanks for that, looks alittle bulky. On top of this any case skin won't fit unless it's made for the new case fitting so that's a big downside. I think I would rather just have a spare battery in my back and not make it so bulky to be honest ubt my opinion.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] cauli:
ICO187, in the pictures showing two devices, what are we actually looking at? I know it probably seems like a silly question, but the reason I ask is that the lower phone in the last pic looks to be the bulky one, yet it looks quite different from my Hero which also has a 3000mAh battery.

If there are several alternative manufacturers of this kind of product for the Hero it might be worth comparing them. If mine is different I'll post some pics later if anyone wants. BTW I bought mine from FoneM8 via eBay. Very happy with it so far, but still breaking it in, so no reliable stats on usage other than the observation it seems to last 2x to 3x longer.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] ICO187:
sorry i forgot i had a case on one. just so use to it.

pic's above one has the hard rubberized case & the other is just the 3000mAh

here you go with out the case ;)

[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] cauli:
Lol, ah okay. Yes that looks pretty similar to mine. Personally I don't mind the added chunkiness; probably makes me slightly less likely to lose it too. Like I said, I'm happy with mine.

For anyone not bothered about the look & extra weight, I'd recommend it :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] sheridan2000:
£19.99 now...price hike!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] cauli:
It was that price a month ago from FoneM8. I'd bought mine before 13oots2 posted the Odds & Pods url. <checks>, Yeah, they're still selling them for 14.99. Not 100% sure they're exactly the same product, but doubt it makes much difference.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] drummingfool:
http://www.thecellguru.com/Products/21111

Try that one on for size... 3500 MAH. WOW.

Let me also say... I'm battery obsessed. If my phone drops by 10%, in my mind it may as well be almost dead. Logical? No. Just the way it is? Absolutely.

People are saying the cover that comes with it slips off easily and it really thickens the phone... but can you imagine!? All that battery power?

Pardon me, I need to go clean myself off.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] zar69:
Hello,

If you're looking for an extended HTC Hero battery, have a look at Mugen Power Batteries.

There are 2 models:

1550 mAh: bit.ly/9uw21Z

3200 mAh (with special back door): bit.ly/9jLRA5

5% off with the code : 5OFF2010

;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] jaume6:
Anyone can compare the original battery numbers with the extended pack?

It's really the double?

Do you recommend it?
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] Gibbo3771:
Imo, that extra bit of chunk makes it look like a hardcore aftermarket beast lol
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] T.K.B:
I also have bought the 3000 mah battery. Been using it for a week now and only needed to charge my phone 3 times. Whereas the stock battery would've needed everyday charge on mine. :p and I don't mind the thickness at all :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] rootbox00:
You have a CDMA Hero! This battery is only for the CDMA Hero ;)

So don't buy that for a GSM Hero..
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] btdag:
In my experience I got between 1-4 days with default battery (4 days with almost no usage) and between 4-10 days with 3000 mAh extended battery (again 10 days with minimal usage). I managed to wipe the extended battery in ~14 hours of constant heavy use and the stock on in <3 hours. So i'd say it was about correct from 1350 to 3000 to be just over double on all accounts.

Hey all,

I was just wondering what's happening with Touch Flo 2.6?

I haven't seen any roms cooked up with it yet, so I was wondering:

A) Is it compatible with the Xperia?

&

B) When can we expect to see a rom with it?

Just got a tad bit excited about the update.

Hi!

My university uses advanced settings for connections to WLAN.

Anyone familiar with an app that gives me more options?

Thank you.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] richardirv:
Have you tried the Windows Mobile Native connection wizard/settings? Rather than the HTC one?

There are more options available that way.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] skyhew:
how shuold it work with "Windows Mobile Native connection wizard"? Where do find this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] richardirv:
When in Comm Manager (Wireless Controls) Tap Wifi then Advanced, this takes you to the Windows Mobile part of the wifi setting where there are more options and settings. These may not be what your after but I don't see what else you would need to connect to a wifi network.

Hope this helps.
[HD2 General] Studebaker72:
Hello Forum!

One phenomenon for the wise guys. After creating sub-folders in the Start menu folder "Tools" (i.e. "GPS", containing a collection of GPS programs to clean out the start menu), I realized that the just created folders do show up in the main Start menu as well (and also as desired in the "Tools" folder of the Start menu). Why the double entries?? I skinned the folder icons with suitable PNG files in the registry, but in the registry the double entries (folders) do not show up at all. Also in the folder Windows\Startmenu\Programs the double entries are not present.

Does anybody know that phenomenon and probably even a solution for it?

Thank you for your time guys, and have a great day!

[HD2 General] Mikulec:
Did u try to softreset?
[HD2 General] Studebaker72:
Sure, was my first thought as well. Many times, no luck...
[HD2 General] Mikulec:
That is weird, the start menu should show only folders that are present in windows/start menu/programs
[HD2 General] gargon01:
I had exactly the same problem. The files I moved to the folder were all in, but the original files outside the folder were still showing in the start menu even though they weren't showing in Resco File Explorer!!

What I did was to undo everything and put all the files back to how they were originally ie outside of the folder, then used ''copy to'' instead of cut and paste and copied the files to the new folders. Then I made all of the original files ''hidden'' in Resco. So they are all still there but invisible in the Start Menu.
[HD2 General] Studebaker72:
I will try that and let you know what happened! Thank you for the description!

Edit: That is really weird indeed!

I deleted all folders and started the complete process again, now with "copy to". Everything was perfectly fine, up to the moment when I was re-arranging the Icons in the Tools folder. I wanted to move all the folders up, and there you go! After I went back to the Start menu I found the folders again there as before. How is that possible?? Can somebody recreate that phenomenon on his HD2 too?
[HD2 General] alex fung:
yes. Anything (icon or folder) that you "move to top" will appear in the (root) start folder, irrespective of which (sub)folder it is living in. Do a "move down" and it will disappear. Weird logic.
[HD2 General] gargon01:
Yep, that's right. I noticed that too. You just have to leave the icons as they are. If you try to move them, they'll show in the root folder again!
[HD2 General] Studebaker72:
OK guys, I did not beleave that until I tried all of it. And you are absolutely right. Anyway, it makes no sense at all. I would like to understand why it is like that, and what to do to solve that phenomenon. Does anybody know a workaround? Meaning a way to avoid "traveling" or "disappearing" folders when somebody just wants to move them up or down?
[HD2 General] lorin.bute:
I have the solution.

I arranged my icons in folders yesterday. I noticed that the icons that i moved to top before moving them in folders had doubles.

So for every double that i had i would cut the icon from the folder and paste it outside the start menu Windows\Start Menu\Programs folder, just in the start menu (where you see the programs and settings folders), and than, cut and paste it in the folders they came from (putting the icons back).

The stat menu needs to see the icon is not there anymore, and will delete the fact that it has such an icon and when you put it back it will be in the right place.
[HD2 General] Mikulec:
In the new wm6.5.3 u can move icons and folders as u like without making copies of them, so just wait for an rom upgrade or flash custom wm6.5.3 rom.
[HD2 General] Studebaker72:
Oh, does that mean that the new official 1.66.4xx.x ROM with Windows Mobile 6.5 21869 (that is just arriving these days) does not solve this problem? :confused: That sucks, god alone knows if and when Windows Mobile 6.5.3 will arrive... or even the Windows Mobile Version 6.6... :eek:
[HD2 General] deepthroat:
have you checked what is inside the HKLM\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start\ ... ;)
[HD2 General] Studebaker72:
Sure, I mentioned that already in a earlier post. The registry is clean, the double entries are not there. Strange huh?
[HD2 General] Archer:
For future reference, 6.6 is 6.5.3. Microsoft relabeled it to placate us for not releasing WM7 when they originally said they would.
[HD2 General] Studebaker72:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] nealk:
Hi all. First, sorry for my english. I recently bought a HTC Sapphire 32B (vodafone spain) from a guy (used) but... The Sapphire don't work correctly.

First, the usb port from sapphire apparently don't work (don't charge and I can't connect with my pc). I used some connectors, some computers but nothing... This guy gave me an external charger, so I can charge the batteries and use with my sapphire but I found another problem. The energy battery drains faster (6-7 hours without wifi, bluetooth, gps...).

He sold it to me with cyanogen rom, SPL 1.33.2005 and recovery from cyanogen.

I tried to reflash another spl (x.xx.2004 from crios), reflash the radio from google ion dev, flash another rom (the original from vodafone, some roms from the forums...) but same problems. And.. yes!, reflash, how I can reflash if the usb port doesn't works?

It is a curious problem. The usb not working but.. when I load the fastboot... it works! I don't understand...I think is a joke. How it's possible? I think is a software problem so I need your help.

In short. The usb not working but in fastboot mode works (but not charge).

If someone know what is the problem, I would appreciate.

Another question. I don't have the warranty ticket but if I want to repair the sapphire with SAT, you know much will it cost?

Thank you for all :) I had bad luck with this sapphire (the guy is a ghost now)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crypysmoker:
Sounds to me like a bad install. I have had this happen ona few different roms where the usb driver just wasnt there. Get a card reader, put the rom you want on the card, back into the phone and flash

I have a UK Vodafone Magic running the vodafone 1.6 ROM. I have given Cyanogen a try so can flash an image, but would like to have a look at AOSP 2.4 or Manup 456's 2.1 ROMs.

I am a little confused as to the procedure though... do I need to flash a new SPL (I didnt when I tried cyanogen), and if so will one SPL work with either image?

I have a NAND backup of my stock image, so can get back to that if something goes wrong, and I am using the standard SPL with fastboot bootloader.

Thanks

Sorry for my bad english...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] werdna72:
Well, if you have differing 'actuals' and/or forecast temperatures between your Home Page and the Weather tab you definitely have a bug.

I've just forced an update on mine, and on both pages I have 2C as the current temperature, 4C as the expected High and 0C as the Low. There is no difference between the figures on the two pages.

Can only suggest that, somehow, the two pages are looking at different bits of data.

Sorry, can't help further.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] prokji:
Well , I'am living in Prague /MyLocation on Today is automatically defined as Prague/ and secondly Iĺl adjust Prague manually in Weather app./.

Ok, I am still new to my touch pro 2 and call me crazy but I don't want to flash the rom yet.

I'm trying to create a custom HDWalls wallpaper in landscape and portrait mode.

I need to to know the size(aspect ratio, width height) of each image (landscape and portrait) and I need to know if this even works for my stock t-mobile rom.

I got the phone only maybe 2-3 weeks ago.

When I make a cab from HDWall and install it (either manually or through HDWallS) It only loads the landsacpe picture. I've read a lot of posts and I want to know

1. Will this work for the stock rom.

2. What aspect ratios should I be using.

3. What settings should I be using in HDWall.

I've spent 3 entire days with mixed results trying to figure this out. Please someone help!

(also) here are some methods I've tried, and the only thing I can come down to is the aspect ratio is wrong?

I've tried chainging the config of WM 6.5 - No Compression - Etc.

Tried 480 x 800

tried my own res

tried 1333 x 800

Tried the Auto Crop

And editing my reg, my today settings. nothing gives me the portrait image. and nothing displays my current landscape(the last one I updated.)

It never works! I'm sad because it's posted here in the TP2 area...and it seems to work?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] kimtyson:

Guys,

I have been strugglig for almost two weeks to have it working.

To have Slide2Shudown instead of the regular LongPressEndKey software, you have to use vijay555's VJBrisk, rename it as EndKey.exe, create shortcut file to the application you need, rename it as EndKeyLNK.lnk, place eveything in your Windows folder and voila :D

I attached the files I use to this post (assuming Slide2Shutdown.exe file is in \Program Files\Slide2Shutdown\).
