Hi guys!

i bought a second battery as backup (after experiencing the TG01's short battery life) when buying my HD2. the backup battery was made in china and had the same problem as many people in this thread do: whenever plugged in, the battery immediately reaches 100% charge. on the other hand, the original HTC battery works perfectly.

it turns out, the fake battery can still be charged with a HD2 dock (which has an integrated battery slot, i got it of eBay Germany)

so far i have experience the same battery life while using the original and fake batteries!

EDIT: attached pictures of my dock and a universal battery charger which i bought on my last vacation to Thailand, it also charges defective batteries (or excites them). the label on the back says: made by ACME Power, charges 3.7V lithium batteries. Automatic polarity exchange. Model: AP A-200. USB Input: DC 5V +/- 0.25V. Output: DC 4.2V +/- 0.05V, 0.5A max. Made in PRC (People's Republic of China) Sorry for not rotating the photo :D

basically, there are two pins that touch the contacts on the battery and the whole device is designed like a clip so it can hold the battery in place while it gets charged!
[HD2 General] aaronio:
I agree it must be a temperature issue, when my backup battery is not charging I usually turn the phone off wait a few minutes and plug the USB in and it works.
[HD2 General] kpejr187:
God bless you, n11 !! I didn't even know about the option to not charge the phone while connected to a pc and was at my wits end trying to figure out why my phone wouldn't charge! Imauser may not have appreciated your advice, but rest assured that you can bother me anytime!
[HD2 General] zole2112:
Thank you, I had the same thing happen to mine about 3 days ago. It wouldn't charge on the usb port or in the wall, blinking orange and green. It was a bent pin, the one in the middle. I'm happy as hell, you made my day!
[HD2 General] xborfi:
thank you! I just got the same issue, the middle pin was the issue. I just fixed it with small screwdriver and it is charging again
[HD2 General] azlan96:
I got that problem on the first day I got the HD2, what I did is power off the phone, took out the battery, insert it back and power on the HD2
[HD2 General] dick turpin:
my phone is dead................... :( same thing, charging issue. had problems charging using the charger in the wall socket, tried usb which seemed to do the trick... now thats failed. my phone is now a brick! tried bending the pins too, doesnt work. gonna go have a lie down and cry now. lol
[HD2 General] murph1960:
thankyou n11---- your suggestion was spot on, had to uncheck don't charge battery when phone is on...
[HD2 General] dick turpin:
my brick is now a phone again!!! yaaaaay!! scratched the surface of the gold contact strips on the battery were the pins contact battery. my phone charges again using the wall socket charger... PHEEEEEEW!!!!!!! :D:D:D
[HD2 General] rr5678:
Whatever happened to typing in proper English?

Remember this for the future. If your phone is not hot and the phone is saying it's overheated, that means the phone can't read the battery's thermistor for one reason or another.
[HD2 General] martian71:
I have a charging issue when in the car, i have narrowed it down to the phone getting too hot while in the cradle, if i remove the phone from the cradle and place it on the seat it cools and starts charging again

Battery solution HTC HD2 LEO needles problem (contact)

:o:):):):):)

Hi. I can tell you what the problem is on your HTC HTD2 (LEO)

When u removed the battery from your htc leo u axedently damaged the needles from the htc . Check the needles from the phone and check that that the contact from the phone needles to the battery are direct and straight. Because now you dont have any contact from phone with battery.

not charging and blinking amber/green

Original post here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8673333&postcount=28

Just reposting in the hopes that I can get some really good ideas/suggestions. Thanks!!

"I just purchased an unlocked t9193 a few days ago. I have HSPL'd it and changed the radio to 2.15.50.14

I have installed Energy ROM WWE Oct 14th 2010 (21681) Manila 2018.

I was in the midst of customizing the settings just the way I like it when suddenly the device started to blink green-and-amber, and the battery stopped charging.

I unplugged the device, and removed the battery. The phone was NOT hot at all. I thought it must be something I installed, so removed the radio and installed 2.14.50.04. I also task 29'd a few times and the reinstalled NRG's rom.

When I plug in the charger, the battery meter immediately displays 100%, but when you check the battery in START/SETTINGS/SYSTEM/POWER, it is not charging. This happens when using the wall charger, and when using the USB to the computer as well. The phone is not hot, the battery temperature is never more than 19degC or 20degC.

Additionally, I have permanently lost the ability to use the flash in my camera. It is permanently a greyed-out lightning bolt and a circle with a slash through it. Tapping flash never turns it on either.

I have checked the bronze prongs and they appear to be in tact - none is bent or out of shape. I am using the battery that came with the device, its an htcBB81100/3.7dc/1230mah/4.55whr. I have only had the phone for 3 or 4 days. I don't know what could be the problem, but this device will not charge. I am thinking about purchasing another battery. But the strange thing is that this WAS WORKING just fine. I don't know what caused it to suddenly not charge anymore and not give the ability to use camera flash either. the battery level is currently at 39% when not plugged in - and draining fast. I cannot flash anything anymore because I am below the required 50% battery charge for flashing. I have hard-reset multiple times and still no charging.

Any advice, suggestions, or tips would be greatly appreciated. I purchase the phone unlocked, so I had to pay a whopping $700.00 for this device. Your help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance."

*edited to add: even when the device is powered off, the same blinking amber-and-green occurs...:confused:
[HD2 General] baddison:
*update*

I purchased a brand new battery, same HTC stock number & model. I am still having the same issue. This phone will not charge. It is recognized by the PC when I plug it into the USB. I am able to access the unit's hard drive, and the inserted SD card. But even in the PC, the battery will not charge.

Does anyone have any ideas? suggestions? thoughts?
[HD2 General] Spl4tt:
weird.. just had this problem too.

the led flashed orange and green when connecting it to pc or charger.. but it didnt charge. then i turned the hd2 off. and it started charging again

i resbooted it some times and now its working again Oo

hmm, i was running android the last two days, and like we know, the battery gets a bit hotter there.. could it probably be cause that? >.<
[HD2 General] johnwalk:
I had this problem to but i was on holiday. for me its to do with the heat. lying in sun listening to music. got back to the room the only way to stop it was to turn it off and charge
[HD2 General] Zythean:
I had it last night, I noticed that my battery temp indicator said it was 250.0 degrees celsius. I tool the battery out of my phone for the night and atm it is charging again.

Could have something to do with overheating probably?

Sent with my HTC HD2
[HD2 General] baddison:
Got my replacement device, and all is well with the world again...LOL!:)
[HD2 General] Spl4tt:
for me, its perfectly working again.. xD dunno what that was
[HD2 General] rr5678:
Just like I thought........the tuermistor is screwing up charging. That sounds like the thermistor in the phone is busted or maybe the HD2 can't read it properly......whatever it is, it tricks the phone into thinking its too hot and halts charging.
[HD2 General] loefflerm:
you are correct that what was wrong with mine the middle post that contacts the battery was bent as soon as i bent it back it charges again thanks for your post
[HD2 General] eng.mohammad:
Dear Friend;

i faced the same problem and thanks my ALLAHH, i found that the connector copper pin that connect the battery with the phone is not in its right direction so i used my hand to redirect it to can connect with the battery

Hi. Can you help with this? or anyone?

[HD2 General] mandel4026:
I had the same problem. LED blinked amber/green/amber/green when phone was attached to charger. I tried using different chargers, tried charging via USB, tried charging the phone while running Android, while running WinMo, and even when the phone was powered off to eliminate operating system issues.

The solution, as discussed above, was to remove the battery and straighten out the middle pin, which had bent forward and was not making contact. It took a second to do and now the phone is charging as usual!

Thanks for the help. This issue has been RESOLVED!
[HD2 General] azlan96:
the middle pin bent forward and I cant get it to be straight anymore, help!

HTC HD2 won't charge

so i bought a new battery and my phone charged and then it wouldn't turn on so i tried to hard reset it and soft reset it then upgrade the software and now its dead! it won't turn on and won't charge. HELP!!
[HD2 General] Robbie P:
I think i read somewhere if you put it in bootloader (power+vol down buttons) it charges maybe enough to restart. worth a try
[HD2 General] akshay2000:
A bit off topic, but what's SNES, huh? Anyway, for me, I wrap or put my HD2 on a wet or moist cloth. This, apparently, cools it down and eventually everything goes fine!
[HD2 General] Mongrol:
Have read through this thread avidly, and with some sense of 'not just me then' .. and have looked at and tried all suggestions - i did have a pin problem, changed batteries, USB and mains chargers etc etc ..

.. there is absolutely nothing .. it has even stopped giving me the 1 second screen and switching off .. on both batteries.

I had the external 'cradle' charger, which is of such poor manufacture it has stopped working as a charger and now sits on my desk as a cradle and nothing else.

For months and months now I have had one problem after another with the HTC HD2 and I have to say.. I deeply regret the day I bought it .. I should have gone with the HTC Desire.

Hi guys.

I did try searching but didn't find anything about this.

I miss having separate wallpapers for portrait and landscape like I had on my TP2.

Is it possible to do this on a G1, with 1.6, and no root?

(Please don't start the "why don't you root" stuff, at this point in time I will not get any benefit from it, I don't feel like changing all my settings again, and there seems to be no definite guide for UK DRC92.)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] atolar:
android has no built in feature that allows you to do this but there may be a home replacement app that will do this, not sure though
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] alexnessie:
I was kind of hoping there was an app that'd allow this with the stock home, every home replacement I've tried has either been laggy, FC's a lot, or is just useless in general.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] mytharak:
I am not aware of any such feature. It's not doable in the stock home screen or any home replacement I'm aware of.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] seeM_ZA:
Hi there :)

Firstly.. No, this is not a typical noobie thread asking for the best custom ROM out there, as I know it's related to personal preference. My problem is that I have a download limit, so I can not test out every ROM I'd like to.

A solution to this problem would be if you guys could recommend a few of the fastest ROMs for me, in your experiences (I'm not so interested in eye candy, more usability.. and most importantly I want it AS SMOOOOOTH AS POSSIBLE, I love smoooothness :D) After a few ROMs are recommended I'll have a better picture of what to check out and what to download and I won't be wasting toomuch of my download limit.

Thanks in advance
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] drewcam888:
Why do you have a download limit? What is your limit?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] seeM_ZA:
I live in South Africa where not everyone has unlimited internet.. My download limit is 5gb a month (but thats for my whole family...) , but I'm pretty close to blowing it :-/
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] seeM_ZA:
C'mon, can't anyone help me out here?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stevedebi:
I think you should start a new thread (search first) entitled "Fastest Custom ROM?" That will get a discussion started, and people who are interested in the subject will see the title and post their opinions.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] seeM_ZA:
I'll try that.. I wanted to avoid that though, 'cause I didn't want this to be those typical "What is the best custom ROM?" threads, and recieve the typical reply of "There is no best custom ROM"
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] burtonsnow8:
Just sort the forum by the ROM w/ the most posts or views. If you go with those they will most likely be the most tested, have more user support/solution, and they have gone through a couple different versions.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stevedebi:
Yes, but the specific question is which is the FASTEST ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] akashastrega:
I tried a couple roms and decided I hated 6.5, so I cannot say for sure...but I can point you in a direction to check threads...

Energy, Cell, Josh, and DeepShining have all had very positive responses, and speed is something commonly mentioned among the pluses.

I hope this helps. Perhaps reading those particular threads can help you decide before wasting bandwidth.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] burtonsnow8:
In other words it is literally impossible to tell. The fastest ROM will be a today screen or titanium with no mods, it really boils down to what you want your phone to do though. I personally like eye candy and stability, you can see what I've chosen below for those. Don't get me wrong, it is still pretty fast, just not as fast as a bone stock ROM would be. I'd be willing to download, burn, and send a DVD full of ROMs, let me know.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] seeM_ZA:
Sorry for taking so long to reply, I've reached my download limit :) lol.. I'm posting this from my phone's internet.

WOW! That DVD would be TRULY awesome, and I'd REALLY REALLY appreciate it. How can we go about doing this kind sir? :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Fin9ers:
I have tested out LOADS of ROMs.

But I always go back to one in particular,

Touch X "SENSE 2.0B X-TREME"

Now unfortunately this ROM has been dis-continued.

But 2.0 is still available for download:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=575747

For speed its great. If I have no today plugin running when i soft reset, there's only 36% memory usage.

Manilla reaps the memory a bit, having around 50% memory usage after soft reset.

Which is why I use other today plugins like 'iphone today' and 'throttlelauncher'

Over all its the the best (in my personal opinion mind)

And its not littered with unnecessary apps
[Touch HD General] blindi0:
Hi

I recently flashed my HD with the german BlackDragon Rom and i have to say i love the new HTC Sense.

But there is one question left. how does the Zoom work in manila 2.5 on the Touch HD.

Is there the only way to zoom by doubleclicking on the touchscreen? (but that works only one time and so it is useless if you need a higher enlagement)

The clockwise rotation with the finger on the screen (TF3D) does not work any more and there are also no zoom-bars to enlage the picture.

Does the zoom work in other ROMs (the few i tested had all the same problem)?

Or are there additional programs that i can install?

Am i the only one with this problem because i can´t find any solutions for this problem.

Thanks

Blindi0
[Touch HD General] samsanchez88:
I believe that this is how the latest manila is designed. The clockwise action was only available on early roms and is no longer supported (and i'm almost sure it can't be installed either).

If you have this problem only with album photos ('cause web browser has a zoom bar) i suggest you try and find another picture viewer like resco viewer or some other that includes zoom.

Hope it helps!
[Touch HD General] abo3bdo:
I think that only happend because the cheefs uses the manela / Sense based on topaz and rohdum and leo and all these hade its hardwear zoom bar

so the manela and sense do not have the soft wear zoom bar
[Touch HD General] accountabc:
You could try to find an old version of HTC album which still has the old way of zooming in
[Touch HD General] Raptordin:
Hmmm, I think I should cook me an old album in my rom.

Could be intresting. Will report back with my findings if it worked.

Either use ManillaBirthday (can be found by searching the forums)

[Touch Cruise General] peciss:
Every time if my polaris freeze. I make soft reset and phone is hard reseted.

All is from beginning like after new ROM install.

Please Help.
[Touch Cruise General] _-Belial-_:
I have the same issue.

I'm tired of the Cruise slowness, freezes, etc ...

I wonder to buy something else and eventually not WinMo !
[Touch Cruise General] Alex-V:
for both...in wm 6.5 it´s absolutly necessary (required) to flash in this way:

flash Orginal rom + hard reset if you see the calibration screen after that flash the wm 6.5 rom also with a hard reset....after a complete boot a soft reset

After that you have no problems...and this work 100 %

:):)
[Touch Cruise General] peciss:
I will try this.

I don't have that problem with original rom.

Thank you.
[Touch Cruise General] _-Belial-_:
I've already tried that but without hard reseting ...

I'll do it and come back here.

Anyway, thanks for the help.

BTW, do you any slowness with your Cruise ?

It doesn't have any freeze ? especially when you type a message ?

I may be too demanding but my first concern is the reactivity of the device.

I dream of having a device with an Iphone reactivity ... (and no i won't buy one)
[Touch Cruise General] Kiiv:
I've got the same issues as you until I follow the exact procedure ;)

But about slowness, I think you have to stay under 6.1 if you want to have the best performance... Or change your phone :/

Or try Android on your Polaris ^^
[Touch Cruise General] _-Belial-_:
Ok thanks for your feedback.

I've entirely followed the procedures.

Let see if I have unexpected hard reset.

About your proposition of using android ... In fact I've tried it and I was really pleased. [ROM] Myn’s Warm Donut - [RLS 4 - 03/16/2010] is incredibly fast and reactive. But I didn't have sound -_-'.

I will start a new thread to request some explanation.
[Touch Cruise General] Alex-V:
if you have little freezes...flash this radio:

this radio fix the freezes...also good is 1.59.46.12 :)

PS: after flash the radio you don´t need to hard reset device
[Touch Cruise General] Alex-V:
try it again...this work :) ( in the past i have the same problems and also pcarvalho...flash like i explained is the solution)
