has this not already been done?? im sure there is an android rom that lets you choose at startup whether you want to run WinMo6.5 or Android from the SD card, dont hold me to this but im sure i read it somewhere a few weeks back and they were just ironing out the final creases then!
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
Not for the HD2. They are still working on the linux kernel. They have working ports for the first HD, the TP2 and a lot of other msm72xx WinMo phones.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] shiznit1707:
Hey guys, big noob here so bear with me...

I was just thinking, would a SIXAXIS (PS3 controller) driver be possible on the HD2? It connects to the PS3 via Bluetooth, so it seems like someone would just have to write a driver and map the buttons. Thoughts?

Hi All

I have struggled to find out what the average battery life is for everyone with a Touch Diamond 2/Topaz. I think it would be awesome if everyone posted what their average battery life is and include your ROM, Radio, battery size/type, average standby, call time and device usage so we can all cry with jealousy for people that get 3 days!!!!

My phone:

1350mAH Li-ion "Hero" battery CS-HDE190SL

Rom: 2.17.421.1 (68613) WWE

Radio: 4.49.25.91

Protocal: 61.44etc.25.35U

Avg. Standby = 1 day

Calls = 30 minutes

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Leetmu:
Details in siggy, my life is pretty bad, 2 working days at most. When the battery is low its slow and sluggish as well.

Two days with moderate use. Using Energy rom, stock battery
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Drag-On:
exactly the same statistics for me. (i am using the cookie theme ROM...dunno if that makes a difference)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] ArtieQ:
My battery life has been really bad lately, I think I need to calibrate it.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Overloaded:
My phone never last longer then 1 day :D

I think i'm listening too much music :p
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:

I think we are both Overloaded... :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Ipox:
2-3 days with moderate use.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] mpathan:
1 day only

I have a Tmobile Compact5. Its a standard ROM upgraded to 6.5.

Moderate use.

How do you calibrate the battery??
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] xhozt:
1day if im lucky on my htc pure ..

3g on wifi off using push .
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] cyron_at:
1. Discharge the device. Absolutely.

2. Take out battery to 40-60 sec.

3. Put the battery to the place. Don't switch on the device!

4. Charge the device by normal way (not by usb!) to the full state (green LED).

5. Take out battery again for 40-60 sec.

6. Put the battery to the place.

7. Switch on the device.

That's all.

Thanks

Thanks.

I will try that tonight and see if that makes any difference.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] rbcd:
Did it make any difference???

I am also on T-Mobile UK and have short battery life.:mad:

I have tried many different ROMs and Radios combinations but none seem to increase the battery life.

Are you in a good or weak signal area?? I've read that can affect battery life too.

What ROM/Radio are you using?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] tomnationwide:
I cailbrated on an HTC Pure battery and it made no appreciable difference I still use it alot and the battery runs out pretty quickly. If I charge to 100% and go to sleep with Klaxon I'm at 97% uncalibrated and calibrated and after one episode of Big Bang Theory I am from 100% to 81% uncalibrated and calibrated so it did nothing.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] trixie0604:
Mine is also 1 day of use..

i'll try the calibration tonight and see if it'll change...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] bankir:
My battery life totally bad. I'm not sure if it's because my heavy usage using Opera/BOLT browser??

From fully charged 100%, it only takes 1 hour to go down to 30% simply by browsing the net in HSDPA/3G connection

ENERGY ROM

Bluetooth = off

wifi = off

email, every 1 hour

twitter = 20 mins

facebook = can't remember how long

But I don't think email/twitter matters too much because they only check email/update status for a couple of seconds.

Can someone tell me if my battery has gone bad? or it's normal to consume 70% in 1 hour?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] colin_85:
Touch Diamond 2 - HTC 6.5 Rom

Email - Every 1 hour

WIFI - ON (battery saving mode)

Bluetooth - 2 hours each day (commute to work)

Usage - 4 hours each day with screen at half brightness.

Standard battery (1100mAh) 1.5 days of use

Extended battery (2600mAh) 4 days of use
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] mpathan:
Made no difference
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] jetbro:
i guess we all agree that the battery life on the topaz, along side every other cell phone out there, is terrible. which is why i bought the mugen power battery 3200mah. i now get about 2 days of heavy use. On average, this is how i use my phone before i have to worry about recharging...

6 hours pandora/slacker through bluetooth headset (bluetooth is always on and i never shut it off),

2 hours surfing the net

1 hour playing games

5 hours talk time

even after that it usually still has some juice left, about 25%. however, the downside to this battery is it's size and price. it makes the phone look ugly, and at 100 dollars its not cheap. but due to how much i use my phone, the battery is worth every penny.
[Legend General] Sebastian768:
In my humble opinion, there is a major design "fault" with the aluminum casing used and it's pretty severe one at that. For me, this makes me think about taking the phone back and getting a refund (yes I can, even after I've used ut).This is the sort of thing Apple would never allow. Now I'm NO Apple fanboy, rather a HTC/Android Phanboy, so hold those horses......

But, ever notice the sharp edge surrounding the top of the HTC? It's quite annoying and prob would get slightly painful in longer conversations.

Now, all they would have to do, was to try the phone and they would notice. It would only take slightly more beveling of the edge. Try holding the phone the wrong way, spreaker to your ear. THAT'S the way an edge should feel against your ear. It's like there's nothing there!
[Legend General] jjs87:
the edge is noticeable and yes it is a annoying but its easy to cope with just dont press it hard against your ear and your fine. What i hate more is the low calling volume in noisy environments its impossible to phone anyone and then the edge does hurt when you try to press the speaker against your ear :confused:
[Legend General] Sebastian768:
Thing is, it shouldn't be like this. It would have been easy to notice this pre-production and it would have been easy to fix. Small things like this ruin a GREAT phone......that and those damn lost wifi signals!
[Legend General] Chapell:
No one mentioned it for a month, so it can't be that bad. Maybe your ear is not compatible with the phone :D
[Legend General] danton47:
Perhaps it depends on how you hold your phone to your ear.

The edge doesn't bother me at all.
[Legend General] KristianE:
I totally agree.. its defenetly a sharp edge against the ear.. the phone must be angled differend than my ond magic to be comfortable to "use as a phone" :/
[Legend General] Jarune:
after reading this post i check my legend but this "problem" is non existing. Even when i rubb my finger on the edge there is little to no "sharpness". For me its move along people nothing to see.
[Legend General] Sebastian768:
Hmmm, I just had a 1hr long phone call and the Legend is noticable uncomfortable to use. The "edge" I'm talking about rests on my ear and it's not painfull, it's just "there" and very annoying. You will naturally move your phone around when you talk and this edge I'm talking about and this makes it even worse.

I pulled out my old Hero and this has a rounded edge (as does the iPhone and EVERY other phone out there) and you can't even notice it when you hold it up to your ear. I'm a nitpicker and I always find small flaws in things I like very much. But I'm considering this is supposed to be a GREAT phone, it should have benn rounded off.

Edge: The edge I'm talking about is the result of a 90 degree angle on the metal where the aluminum has been cnc'd. Once again, hold your phone the other way round and it is MUCH more comfortable to hold against your head, but MUCH worse to use as a phone...
[Legend General] colonel:
I don't find this an issue at all

the iphone button used to really hurt my chin though :-)

its more healthy for there to be an air gap between the phone and your face in any event

I would also strongly suggest the 1 hour calls you use a bluetooth headset. Its bound to be unhealthy otherwise
[Legend General] mari180:
My tip to avoid this : stick the screen to your ear instead of the edge.

:eek:

You can hear as well, but the contact is much smoother with the flat surface.

:)
[Legend General] josmeijer:
faulty design

Try the handsfree-set that came along.

I't s better for your brains too! ;-)

thanks for sharing
[Desire General] RetroFlux:
I almost find that offensive, I can't comprehend why one would sully Android by running it on the icrap!
[Desire General] jayshah:
This was my initial impression, but think about what this could mean for Android. If the concept gets popular, and people seriously dual boot iPhones for Android features (multitasking, wifi tethers, flash support even) then the iPhone devs will start re-producing their applications for Android. I can only see this taking Android forward, even if we have to bare the brunt of the iFail with it.
[Desire General] RetroFlux:
A valid point, I may have been blinded by my initial disgust. However, I don't think the apple mafia would allow that level of freedom to developers.
[Droid Incredible General] deekjx:
Just found out some of the orders went through on Monday and a few people got theirs on Tuesday.

[Droid Incredible General] deekjx:

[Droid Incredible General] tbaker077:
Androidcentral already did that test. Said to be fixed now. http://www.androidcentral.com/video-multitouch-droid-incredible
[Droid Incredible General] qquag:
As stated above it is fixed I downloaded it and tried it out it works perfectly. I crossed the lines and it still follows the fingers like its suposed to.
[Droid Incredible General] theoneownz:
i didnt but im wondering for the general if they plan to ship it on the 29th or before to be here on the 29th

I don't know how verizon does their basic shipping with pre-orders....
[Droid Incredible General] kgeissler:
For the ones who have gotten the phone, did Verizon include an 8GB microSD card?
[Droid Incredible General] deekjx:
Thanks, detailed exactly what I was looking for.
[Droid Incredible General] peanut_butter:
If you order before 4 o'clock on the 28th we will ship that night and you will get it on the 29th.

as for the memory when I got mine there is 8 Gig built in and I put a 16 gig memory card in there also
[Droid Incredible General] peanut_butter:
The stores will recieve them on the 29. The launch is going to be similar to the Droid but on a smaller scale.

[Droid Incredible General] pingels:
p_b,

Have you heard anything about Best Buy Mobile recieving phones onthe 25th? I suppose that would mess up pre orders (at stores) from the 25th-28th...but I'm asking anyway.
[Droid Incredible General] theoneownz:
exactly what i thought to thanks

I also spoke to a rep and she stated that some people will continue to get them earlier then the 29th as the stock is available

hopefully its true and i get mine early as well :oP I'm impatient lol
[Droid Incredible General] androidlicious:
I saw a short "unboxing" video on Youtube yesterday, so it looks like some people already received theirs...
[Droid Incredible General] peanut_butter:
they arent supposed to but you never know with best buy, the goofed up the launch of the storm 2 anyway. they released it for a day almost a week early so that means on average the probably sold two and returned one lol

[Droid Incredible General] MichaelW2608:
Where did you order yours from? I ordered through Verizon but I don't remember seeing that. I do remember the shipping option being 2-3 business days though.
[Droid Incredible General] paulhoop:
Check your Verizon order status page on the web site. A bunch of them changed yesterday to

Order Date: 04/19/2010

Order Number: 519988XXX

Order Status: Your order has been processed. You should receive your order within 2 - 3 business days.

Lots of people think this means that phones will be delivered Tues or Wed. Me, I am not so sure.
[Droid Incredible General] theoneownz:
indeed exactly how i checked.. Verizon should have sent off an email to you containing an order number to check their website. As paul said Mine was updated around noon time with the message i posted.
[Droid Incredible General] deekjx:
Those with the device, any of you willing to check if the fastboot oem unlock option is available?

I'm not asking you to unlock it as that would void the warranty but if you start the process, it will prompt you if you would like to do it and warn about the warranty becoming void if you proceed. Enquiringly minds want to know.
[Droid Incredible General] theoneownz:
Interesting question ill keep an eye here if no one has answered this before i get my phone i will
[Droid Incredible General] theoneownz:
In transit - Picked up

[Droid Incredible General] coolfx35:

Is this true? the last thing i want to do is take a day off, and wait at my house for the phone....

http://www.htc-incredible.com/general-htc-droid-incredible-discussion/shipping-signature-required/
[Droid Incredible General] TheGreatNanners:
You used to be able to leave a signed note, including the tracking number for FEDEX and they'd accept that. I think they changed that now. They will leave it if you have a signed FEDEX door tag, but they only leave you one after they try to delivery it once.
[Droid Incredible General] xmkgenzo:

need to set it up; transfer contacts and enjoy it!

...and change my sign :)

I wonder if super rich people ever come into forums like this and giggle..

It does seem a little silly to be so impatient for something like a phone.

Yet, i feel like like a little school girl, waiting for the first day of summer.

I guess my priorities are my priorities..

And another analogy.

Its all relative.

[Droid Incredible General] miked1207:
I received mine earlier this morning, and I totally agree with the post directly above me......it does seem silly to obsess over this stuff, but man, this is all I've been thinking about all freakin week! Received at approx 1pm and haven't left it's side. I had an Eris for about 2 months, sold it last weekend on Craigslist for $250 after I had paid $80 for it originally.....the $250 more than covered the cost of this phone. I really liked the Eris, but the Incredible is just a lot sexier in every way. Basically a Eris on Steroids, in a hotter package.
[Droid Incredible General] Trey_Miller:

[Droid Incredible General] elbebo:
I was at the store earlier today to take a look at the phone and they are there but I had to search a little for them and get the phone in the right light. I don't know about the jittering part though, not sure what causes that or if it's present on this device.
[Droid Incredible General] hoss_n2:
if the matrix is there then the incredible uses the same screen technology as hd2 ,desire ,nexus one ,not the max touch technology
[Droid Incredible General] deekjx:
It does not have the multitouch issues that the nexus one has. I've tested this extensively. I'll look into the jittering part though. The touch sensor appears a lot smoother than my fianće's MOTO Droid.

I do see a pattern on the display in bright light with it off. It's very faint.
