Same for me. I don't really want to have to always charge it with the phone off. Very annoying.
[Desire General] th3:
Same thing I described above repeated itself this morn except that the charge dropped to 93% within 12mins this time - on standby with airplane mode and no WiFi or Bluetooth enabled. However, It's held steady after that. I poll battery charge, voltage, temperature and usage levels using the Testing notification icon (I use the BarControl app).

[Desire General] kefje27:
I'm noticing the same behaviour , when charging while it's off it still reports not fully loaded but then you start your phone and it will report 100% pretty quick after boot , but when taken of the plug it will drop back to around 90%.

If I leave the phone off while charging It has a good battery life and will only drop like it is supposed to do with the use of the phone.
[Desire General] cgrec92:
happened to me this morning, not the day before, and this was my second discharge cycle, taking the cable out and back again should charge the additional 10% and calibrate this with the battery, it seems like the phone has safety measures in place to protect the phone but its getting in the way of the charging process? just a theory but this issue will probably fix itself after a few more charges
[Desire General] franklinvv:
I think many of your problems are caused by the following.

When you charge your Desire, it charges until it's 100% full. Then, if you leave it on AC, it will start discharging itself after 2 hours until it's at 90% (within about half an hour) and then it will go back to 100% (within about an hour). So, this cycle takes approximately 3.5 hours. If you take out the charger when it's discharging, e.g. at 94%, you will quite soon reach 90% during use.

This behaviour can be seen if you use a program such as JuicePlotter which plots your battery charge level. It probably doesn't happen if your Desire is turned off while charging. I will try that tonight. Although I obviously cannot use JuicePlotter to confirm correct behaviour tonight (since it will be turned off), I assume it will be at 100% when I turn the device on again.

Check the image for a 'proof' of aforementioned behaviour. :)
[Desire General] Quazar0:
Thanks for the info, seems to make sense! Its just annoying taking the phone out when its down to 90%. It seems mine sometimes stays at 90% or falsely states it is at 100%.

When I asked HTC about the issue I got the following response:

Seems like it will be fixed eventually.
[Desire General] franklinvv:
Did you contact them with the information that I provided in my previous post? :)
[Desire General] marshalex:
so how long does it take to reach 100% from dead then? might invest in a timer for overnight charging to see if can stop this from happening
[Desire General] th3:
While off? Don't recall.

While on standby.. 2hrs 48min, timed this morn.

[Desire General] Tyr:
I thought it might be intentional to reduce the battery heating, power use on mains and be a little more eco friendly by shutting off the charger. Perhaps someone can with the right equipment can monitor the socket power use as well as Tue phone's charge.
[Desire General] Charles Chen:
Does anyone encounter this strange behavior on Desire?

This problem still there and many people seems have the same problem now.
[Desire General] sibere:
I have the same issue with my desire.

Charging to 100% and then slowly discharging while plugged-in to 90% (even if showing 100% on the batt. level) then charging again to 100%. If you disconnect your phone when close to 90%, the gage will drop rapidely to the actual level (btwn 90 and 100%)

Obviously the behaviour is different when the phone is OFF because it's not discharging itself.

Try to install currentwidget and you will see that when the batt. is full, the phone is draining current from the battery even when connected.

I've noticed also with that widget that the phone is still charging when it reaches 100%.

Try to install battery snap widget too to get infos about your batt on a widget (%, voltage, estimated batt life and nice graphics about your batt usage)
[Desire General] Charles Chen:
Only few people encounter this problem?

It is really an annoyance when you unplug (after all night charge) and found the battery isn't at 100%.

Why I never encounter the same problem w/ my HTC Hero?

Any advise would be appreciated.
[Desire General] stoske:
When I was using default Sense ROM it happends to me as well.

After rooting and swithing to DeFrost I dont have this problem anymore.

Also I got a better battery life as well....

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuartturrell:
Hi guys,

Looking at geting a new phone, its between the desire, hd2 and the x10.

One question i have is:-

When i had the xperia 1, one thing that annoyed me was the screen was recessed and not level so it was hard to use your fingers around the edge of the phone.

Does the X10 still have this or is it flat like the touch hd?

also, i would ask what phone you would suggest, but as i am on the x10 forums, i know what the answer will be :)

Many thanks,

Stuart
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jojosplace:
I had the x1 and I know exactly what you mean, you ll be glad to hear that the x10 does NOT have a recessed screen, it's sits flat with the rest of the phone. :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flamso:
Yeah, the capacitive screen is flat. Thank god. :D And as I've said in other threads, the reason I chose the X10 over the Desire is the screen (a bit bigger and a bit higher resolution with 16:9 aspect ratio) and the looks of it (the camera is just a big bonus!)!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakuburban:
The screen is completely smooth, so there isn't any problem with the borders. My dad has hd2 but it was repaired twice because once the main board was getting overheated and the phone rebooted while charging and having navigation on. The second time it was repaired because after pressing turn off button (screen) the touchscreen won't respond. Although the phone has been repaired after 5 days. As long as you have warranty you can use hd2. With my x10 I NEVER had problems

[Legend Android Development] livius:
ehi guys, i cant understand....

why there aren't coocked rom for legend yet?

usually CR appears just a few days afther the phone release but these time isn't...why??

some difficoulty in rooting process?

ps:sorry for my english
[Legend Android Development] Jarune:
the Legend does not have root access of this moment. There have been people who claimed to have root access but a public easy way has not been released.

It could be the release schedule of the phone. It was available in the Netherlands for over a month but just been released in other country's in the last couple of weeks. Also HTC has learned and root access was made more difficult.

Coming from a Windows Mobile phone and tried many roms i am not complaing yet. Android and the legend has almost everthing i want and is the need for a custom rom is a lot less. Sure we all want to better our phones and it will happen. Things i want to see is :

-Live wallpapers (not really neccessary but would be nice )

-More homescreens, also up and down (some homescreens take the whole screen, twitter, agenda, email)

-Full App support (signed and unsigned)

-Some user wanted Sense tweaks (Sense is topdog, I tried the other home screens)

-Better exchange support (it's pretty basic now, even windows mobile or IphoneOS have better support and options)
[Legend Android Development] livius:
you'r right...we really dont need a CM for our legend, in fact original rom works fine at the moment, excepted some bug (ring on incoming call ecc ecc...)

but CR for me (ancd others users i think) is a way to enjoy my phone, like a game :D

aniway the only thing i really would in a future CR is the possibility to create folders on the screen...that could be really nice for me...
[Legend Android Development] Pirreballo:
Autostarts, wifi Theter and many Apps on Market required root.... so I hope that it comes as soon as possible! :D
[Legend Android Development] Chinooke:
Livius, can you describe that bug for me? I'm trying to identify if the problem I have is a hardware one or a software bug..
[Legend Android Development] livius:
practically...when you have an incoming call the ring starts but afther some seconds will decrease (volume) also if you don't have the option selected into settings menu...

hope i can explain well....

in pratica, quando ricevi una telefonata la suoneria parte ma dopo qualche secondo si abbassa, anche se non hai selezionato l'opzione dal menu impostazioni

ps:i'm not the only with these bug, also other users have the same problem, i'm sure it's a room's bug
[Legend Android Development] norrgrd:
This is not a bug but rather a feature and can be changed via Settings->Sound and display->Discreet call...

EDIT: Saw that others have this problem even with that feature turned off, sorry.
[Legend Android Development] livius:
maybe i cant explain well....

also if you have not selected these option...ring volume decrease...
[Legend Android Development] emadsami:
The stock rom can create folders on the screen (predefined folders and custom ones)
[Legend Android Development] livius:
o god...right my friend... tnx a lot :D

so...by now i can say that i only need theater and no more features...

stock rom is really complete in fact.

but i also would like to try some rom without sense, maybe the sense exclusion will increase the available rom end speed during apps like browser, games, etc etc...

[Nexus One General] ndep:
some guy successfully bricked his N1 as soon as he received it about 2 months ago. When this expensive brick reached my hand, he didn't even remember what he had done... and this brick had been through many many ppl for repair, so there is no way for me to know what exactly happened during the last 2 months...

Anyway, now it:

1. light doesn't turn on when charging(not sure yet whether it is actually charing)

2. trackball + power could gets it to fastboot screen, but none of the key is working then.

3. after single press of power button when powered off, red/green/blue/white color bar and 3 droids on the screen

so , now I cannot put it in fastboot nor recovery mode, stuck.

could there be anything I can do to rescue it?
[Nexus One General] britoso:
Verify this. Enter fastboot mode (connected to usb) and then try "fastboot devices" in a command prompt. It it reports a connected device then its definitely recoverable.
[Nexus One General] vegetaleb:
The only way that a N1 get bricked (software wise) is by upgrading a wrong radio, and unfortunetly the only way to recover it (now) is by sending it to Google/HTC
[Nexus One General] ndep:
more explanation

thanks i did try that...fastboot devices could not detect anything,coz it just freezes at that screen and could not enter any mode using power and voldown button.

what puzzlrs me most is that screens with multicolor bars, how on earth does that happen?
[Nexus One General] ndep:
update: the light turns orange now and then when charging, and it is actually charging no matter the light is on or not. ( using my own nexus to verify that )
[Nexus One General] vegetaleb:
Did you plugged it to your PC?

I knew a guy who bought a ''flashing device'' capable of formating any chipset over USB, so he could do a clean install of the Firmware again. Perhaps you could find one of these devices over ebay
[Nexus One General] C.Slater:
That's assuming he has the android sdk installed with the correct drivers. We don't know if the op has.
[Nexus One General] ndep:
@vegetaleb: the device you mentioned is somewhat mysterious... a search on ebay with "flash device" does not give me anything related, do you have a specific name?

@C.Slater: I do have them, coz I myself own a nexus too..
[Nexus One General] ndep:
should be deleted, sorry

@vegetaleb: the device you mentioned is somewhat mysterious... a search on ebay with "flash device" does not give me anything related, do you have a specific name?

does typing fastboot devices in the cmd prompt work for your non bricked nexus?

[Nexus One General] TFJ4:
Does holding power+trackball bring you to fastboot?

Yes=It's not bricked

No=Kiss it goodbye, it's bricked

Simple as that
[Nexus One General] ndep:
power+trackball will bring it to fastboot screen, note just the fastboot screen, it just freezes there. All the buttons does not work, and connecting to PC using a USB cable does not show "FASTBOOT USB".

However, it could enter HBOOT with power+voldown, I noticed it searches for passdiag.zip , passdiag.nbh, etc. Could I use this builtin function to flash it? which file in this post should I use?

http://android.modaco.com/content/g...-online-kitchen-optional-root-insecure-himem/

I tried to use the first one ( http://www.romraid.com/paul/nexusone/EPE76-update-nexusone-stock-images.zip ), rename to PASSDIAG.zip , but HBOOT is still complaining about "No Image"
[Nexus One General] vegetaleb:
Perhaps it's physically damaged!

It remembers me of my boss iphone that looked perfectly normal but couldn't get a FW installed because the power part has been damaged by water(power button couldn't work at all)
[Nexus One General] speedyls91:
Try renaming it to passimg.zip and use hboot again.
[Nexus One General] ndep:
tried PASSIMG.zip , still "No Image"...
[Nexus One General] faraz1992:
You can send it to htc for repair but the downside would be that you would never know how to deal with this kind of problem yourself...

Continue the research and keep us posted :D ...
[Nexus One General] martin0285:
i maybe wrong but i think is it case-sensitive.....meaning PASSIMG.zip would fail but passimg.zip wouldn't.....Correct me if i'm wrong please....
[Nexus One General] blktalon:
Case sensitive

I'm pretty sure it is case sensitive. Used to be that way with other android and HTC devices. Can't imagine it's changed.
[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
linux is case sensitive, for sure.

i say approach from the adb/fastboot route, using usb. first, ensure that you have all the correct drivers etc for adb use (the sdk, the usb drivers, and the device specific drivers).

try ur 'adb devices' command

if adb sees it, in normal mode, you should be okay. make sure the phone has 'usb debugging' turned on in settings

"Pkt Auctions eBay"

It's free and in my opinion better than any other app.

Guys.

I think even if you/we are able to achieve some kind of

satisfactory state of X2 usability

You'll agree those problems are beyond acceptance.

We have a flagship device

600 Euro high end device

With basic operation problems and failures

widely confirmed by 99% of users.

Here, Esato and SE official Blog.

Today I called SE.

Guys I don't think we can just leave it this way.

This is extremely rude and incompetent behaviour.

I've already sent info to WMPoweruser

and they published that.

Guys, please let's discuss that.

I absolutely don't accept the fact that

I have to rip off half of the device to make it work!!!
[XPERIA X2 General] doministry:
I called the MAIN sony Ericsson Service in Poland today

and talked to a very nice and competent man

He has weekly videoconferences with :se:

regarding service and technical issues

So - he noted everything I said

he will pass this further/higher!

I told him all the "truth" regarding this device

and also that in the end I want

to be rather a happy se customer

than a pitbull fighting with the company.

The problem is I don't really see any alternative for X2.

[XPERIA X2 General] gbajzelj:
when i was reading your other post on your filings sbouth X2 afther MR1 upgrade I got an idea. Every user who has problems when using X2 should write an email to SE and resend it every single DAY. They will have to do something.

Even I am sick of X2, when it stops working using even only the basic features, and I got it for free. X2 is an embarassement. When I was sitting by the table in a coffie shop I proudly put my X1 on the table. But then with X2 its not the same. X2 is left in my pocket and not on the table.

Today I was driving from work and I wanted to use Gmaps and GPS just for fun and when I turned on the GPS the google maps crashed. I was so pissed I almost crashed my car:).

X2 Should be a premium device. It looks like one, costs like one. But it just doesnt act like one (and it also could have newer HW).

Shure SE had to finish X10 but what abouth us WM xperia fans!? We helped xperia brand to puck up back in 2008. Are we just piles of $h1t to them?

If the upgrade in may (6.5.3) isnt perfect Im quiting SE (and I was a total fan since T68i).

Its up to SE.

Backup

Does this backup the registry also? I have made changes to the T-Mobile Stock ROM that required reg changes but I want to test out one of the Custom ROMS but if I go back to T-Mo Stock I would like for it to be as I left it and not start over.

Thanks,
[HD2 General] brownhornet:
SPB backs up EVERYTHING... when I flash a rom ill do an spb backup first and if I have to go back it puts it back the exact way it was I flashed.
[HD2 General] dgreening:
Thanks,

Cool, that is what I want to hear. I don't mind reinstalling when I am working on a new ROM but if I have to fallback I would prefer for it to be ready to go.
[HD2 General] pookeee:
does SPB also back up favorites?
[HD2 General] Reignzone:
Yeah, SPB Backup is an excellent bit of software. Definitely worth the money.

I would also suggest, PIM Backup/Restore, and Sprite Backup...

Just be sure you read all of the primary functions before tampering with any of the system files for backup.

How is possible that many people have R1FA016 FW and others R1FA014 FW ?

performances in 016 :

The major changes which have been noticed are improved audio quality and the noise has been reduced with increased bass which makes the audio quality very good. Another change is in the camera quality in which shooting at night has improved drastically with less noise in the pictures.

The onscreen keyboard was a problem with the Xperia X10 as entering text was irritating. The problem was that sometimes a single touch was not sufficient to select a letter, but now it is better.

Ive just got this app (really to save myself some battery time)

On launching for the first time it presents me with a whole bunch of stuff including my clocks

Now i'm sure this maybe a pretty dumb question but if i kill the htc clock App will that stop the time and weather updating correctly? (i have my weather set to update hourly) and also if i kill any app like K-9 or Peep (that i have an update schedule set for) will it stop that schedule till i manually launch the app again or will it auto launch when it reaches the sheduled update time?

Sorry for the (potentially) stupid questions

Cheers
