[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
Get tBattery and check to see the current draw under stead, idle conditions. With the backlight at 5, it should draw about 110 mA (there may be some spiking). Use the log feature, say for 10 min @ a time, with power-save options unchecked so the screen doesn't dim and it doesn't go to sleep. If the drain is high (constantly above 200 mA, let's say), then get a good task manager (hint: new dotfred's 3.3) and start killing processes, and see if that helps. If not, then try stopping some of ther services.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Johev:
Thanks Farmer Ted for the reply, but I think I found the cause of the problem. I don't know why but after it wakes up, because of an appointment, it will not turn the screen off, even after 10 minutes and I have the power management set 30 sec off if not being used.

As the screen is locked, the appointment will not be dismissed by accident or pressed so it just stays like that, until the battery is dead.

Is there a hidden option to make the phone go back to sleep, or to prevent it from waking up, just making the led blink, as when you get new SMS messages and the screen is off, or when you get a missed call?

If there was I think it would solve the problem completely.

Thank you all for your help.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] jul644:
yes the problem is the screen it drains it faster than a hobo with a bottle of wiskey,

what you have to do it click on batter icon and get into the battery menu select advanced and elect turn back light off if device is not used for and select 10 second, then turn off device if not used for and slected 1 minute (its reffering to the screen)

then i use a program called touch pro tweak (its cooked into all energy roms) and there is a setting to wake up on call or text or notification and disable it by wake up it refers to turing the screen on
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Teej53214:
I have a simmilar problem.. I discovered what causes it... When I install certian programs, it changes the power settings.. namely, the power off when not plugged in setting... So, check out those settings... I have had this happen 3 or 4 times in as many months... then I notice the same issues with my battery.. after I go change the settigns back (for the 100th time) it goes back to pastign 2-3 days for me... (instead of less than 1)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Johev:
Hi people, sorry to bring up this topic again, but I see no point in creating a new one.

I would like to ask if any of you would recommend me a good French ROM (as it comes with AZERTY keyboard) for this device that has good battery life?

Is it possible that a cooked WM 6.5 would use less battery then stock WM 6.1?

I have another problem, is there a way to turn up the ringing volume of the phone, in order to hear it even if it is in a small bag? It's already on max, but my father complaints the ringing volume is too low and he can not hear it.

And last but not least, how much does this battery normally last? Wifi off, bluetooth off, calling about 15 min a day, some SMS and a lot of reminders.

It can not go a day, max two days without recharging. It is always turned off when he goes to sleep, because if not, he will wake up with a dead device.
[Desire General] al89nut:
does it have the same 3G reception problems?

Ask because I saw on another site a display of all the notations that the Desire has and there was a little insignia for 3G. Never seen it myself. All I get are bars and H. So what does this mean?
[Desire General] abc27:
All you get is H? Consider yourself lucky. That means you're running on 3.5G aka HSDPA which is faster than regular 3G.
[Desire General] Loccy:
H = HSDPA - which is 3G on steroids.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-Speed_Downlink_Packet_Access

So if you're getting an H symbol, be happy. If you're getting the 3G symbol, be less happy. If you're getting the E or G symbols, cry.
[Desire General] nicelad_uk:
I cry so often :(
[Desire General] al89nut:
My ignorance is clearly great. Declared a virgin.

So why don't I ever see the little 3G tag even when I am not H? Point being I get H and bars or bare bars but bars never have other notations than H
[Desire General] samac92:
i get H or 3G or rarely G, it just shows whats the best available.

if it displays no symbol do you still have internet access?

oh and if you are connected to wifi it won't show H or anything, so maybe your only ever on HSDPA or wifi
[Desire General] Alex_w:
You'll see the bare bars when there's no data session going on. If you just see H when you're using data, you're skipping the 3G stage where the handset tries to negotiate HSPA with the tower.. which is awesome, BTW. You'll see the 3G sooner or later when the network is or you're getting a poor-er signal.
[Desire General] OnlinePredator:
GENERALLY, where there is a 3G signal, there is also a H signal, your smartphone will pick the better when it can. I have only ever seen my desire go to 3G once.
[Desire General] TeCH-Guruz:
I have only ever got G or H but never 3G
[Desire General] farnsbarns:
this could be a coincidence but the other day I put my phone into airplane mode for a while and then switched back to normal mode.

ever since I have had solid hsdpa signal at home which was always sketchy before.

I realise TM may have fixed/upgraded an antenna or added a new one but it seems such a big coincidence.

try it and report back!

[Desire General] youandwhosearmy:
So what's 3G+ then because that's the symbol I generally get?
[Desire General] Eyeloose:
Is your Desire still running the Orange ROM? I had the same little 3G+ logo on mine until I flashed the generic ROM on and now it displays the H rather than 3G+.
[Desire General] Highland3r:
Nexus displays 3G for HSDPA connections if you're on the stock ROM. It doesn't mean you're not connected at the higher speed - if you goto the phone status it'll tell you exactly what you're connected at.

Some of the custom Nexus ROM's add "H" for HSDPA, it looks like the Desire shows the same on some ROM's but maybe not others.

Best bet to check exactly what speed you're connected at is via phone status.
[Desire General] subharmonic:
Ah - this answers one of my questions then.

I had thought my 3G didn't work, because I got "H" all the time.

Sounds like it's just coz my phone jumps to H...

I can't recall EVER seeing a 3G symbol. Always just G or H or nothing...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe.kerwin:
Ok so i've been easing into learning how to edit apk's, theming I guess you can call it. I'm in the exploratory early stages, here's my question. I use BetterZip on my Mac to edit the apk's (zips). So I copied the facebook.apk from Super D 1.10.3 (built in?) and move the apk to my sdcard and renamed it with a .zip extension. Edit some png's, save it. Return to Root Explorer and rename with the .apk extension again, and install. Install comes back successful but my image changes do not show up? I havent gotten creative with it because I want to know the steps first before getting creative. So i just turned random icons black and such and they remain the same. It "overwrites" the FB app that is installed initially in system/app, should there not be two apk's around? prob not right? If someone could just briefly tell me their steps, and obviously you'd have to have a mac to help. Thanks.

And for the record, i've checked out other threads about editing apk's on a mac and its just too difficult it seems, creating keystores and whatnot? I feel like my method is pretty close, I'm just missing something.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Binary100100:
I don't know much about mac's but I'm pretty good at theming. How are you signing your modified .apk files? If you don't sign them then they will fail to install.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mic_888:
Double post - sorry
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mic_888:
Have you seen this thread - it's a droplet for your mac to sign apks.....maybe it will help?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe.kerwin:
yeah I have that droplet app to sign apps. Maybe it's just a bad apk to start with? I used the FB apk and edited it, signed it, and tried installing it on a fresh install of Superfast (facebook isn't included in system apps) and it still says "This program will overwrite a system blah blah blah" So maybe i'm just messing with the wrong apk? I haven't tried anything else, I just really wanted to tweak the FB widget, haha. Any advice?
[HD2 General] goldt:
I just got fed up and finally called HTC here in the states and basically told them about constant freezing, text messaging freezing and other bugs. They replied, "that's a first, we were not aware of these issues and no, we are not working on the new ROM or these fixes, there are no issues with your phone". He also mentioned if enough people call, he will forward this to a team of engineers.

So guys and girls start calling HTC, maybe we can get this fixed by 2012 :rolleyes:

It is the best phone but deleting text messages every 2 days is crazy.

P.S. If you do call, make sure to tell them that you're on a stock ROM and hard resetting did not fix anything and no programs installed.

[Nexus One General] brocabortzfield:
more often than not, if i leave my phone on the charger, and then use it...it says its fully charged in the status bar, but on the lock screen it says charging 99%...

anyone know why this would happen or has anyone else had this issue and found a solution?
[Nexus One General] xdZKu7:
In one of the larger battery-threads (is it in 'accessories' perhaps?) someone mentioned that this is to prolong the life of the Li-Ion battery. Basically the charging circuit cuts the charging when it reaches 100%, and waits until battery charge is at 98% before it starts again.

There should be a few threads, or at least threads with comments detailing this in a bit more convincing manner than what i have :)
[Nexus One General] brocabortzfield:
hmm ive been looking, cant seem to find it...
[Nexus One General] xdZKu7:
This thread does not exactly answer your question, but you should be able to learn a bit from it:

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=622688

Note some of the links inside provide some information on how Li-Ion works.

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=649770

This is the thread I was referring to, you might find something interesting there.

Also note that the battery voltage drops very quickly at the very full end and then flattens. Depending on the approximation HTC/Android does when calculating the percents left that might also contribute to what you're seeing. You can see the N1 battery profile here:

[Nexus One General] brocabortzfield:
alright so hopefully nothing is wrong with my battery, cause it does it for the OEM one and the Seidio 3200 which i just got...
[Nexus One General] xdZKu7:
No, I wouldn't suspect that unless you're also experiencing other unexplained behaviour. But it could be the calibration, which the address to greater detail in the first thread I linked to. They have a few suggestions there on how to reset the calibration so that it stays at 100% for longer.

Note that it doesn't change the total amount of battery time at your disposal, but it might more accurately tell you how much you have left.

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Perfectionist:
Thanks to the kickass peeps here, I've managed to unlock my MDA Compact 3 !! :)

This place ROCKS !! :D

Now I want to (attempt to!) install WM6 on the phone so I can use the MS MyPhone backup service ;)

I've read so many threads but am still confused about how to do it properly - and am scared I might screw it up and end up with a paperweight !! :o

What is the simplest step-by-step procedure in doing this as safely as possible and which is the best ROM/File version to use ?? :confused:

Some questions about it :-

1) Would upgrading to WM6 actually be a bad idea as the device is so old now ?

2) Does it involve a Hard Reset which would wipe everything on the phone ?

3) Would I have to re-unlock it again afterwards ?

Please help Dudes !! :)

Did you try to remove the battery for a lot of time?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Android*XDA:
I have two solutions

I also had this problem, and i have two solutions, maybe can help you :

1. On your phone: simultaneously press the volume down and reset to get into boot mode.

Once you have managed this, follow the instructions on the screen of your computers with installation of rom.

2. Possibly you do not succeed the first step, obtain a version of HardSPL Diamond, .nbh or ROMUpdateUtility.exe, and running, with the phone connected to PC and in mod boot loader.

IMPORTANT I recommend :

" Try to get HardSPL-1.24 " , ( versions of HardSPL which are in atachament I have not ever installed on the my HTC Touch Diamond, because already have the HardSPL-1.24 on my phone )

Should work, good luck and more attention next time.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] DilosPL:
THX!! :D i reinstalled my hardspl to 1.30 and then i was able to reinstall my rom ^^ and it works :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] DilosPL:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] helicopter88:
use MTTY then flash the Hard SPL 1.40 then flash the rom you want

I saw a few other threads on here regarding issues with fpsece on our phones but I had a more specific problem regarding the app/program, which would be multi-touch. Does anyone here run fpsece on their HD2 and successfully play their roms with multi-touch functioning? I have the latest free version installed with the supporter cab (3/25/10). No matter what skin I use, no matter what editing I do to my ini that the fpsece forum suggests seems to work. I'm posting on here in hope that someone can help me resolve this problem.

I too have the supporters version and also have multitouch issues, I think that there is a line you need to add into the ini file to activate this...

I have been a long time user of PhoneLog which logs all calls and sms messages into your calendar. Excellent app.

The only issue is that with 6.5.5 /Sense 2 it does not seem to log SMS's anymore

Does anyone have a similar app. It logs it in real time and ends up on my work calendar via Exchange active sync.

im not familar with anything personally, but it sounds like a cool idea and i would be interested to know aswell.

glad you got it going, now i think ill have to check PhoneLog out.

[HD2 General] dusty_nz:
Typo. Cab worked fine.

Phone log = http://www.infinityball.com/phonelog/

Now is logging incoming messages but not outgoing.

I have tried using threaded view or single message view. Same issue. Better thou.

Also Sense now fails to acknowledge that the sms has been read. That might be a deal breaker.

Is there a util which can back up messages to calendar once a day/week?
[HD2 General] lamensterms:
while using the stock WM sms client... it is a know issue for Sense to keep displaying the notification bubble on the SMS tab. i experience this problem very rarely (so rarely that it is hardly a problem for me). i think it might have been discussed in the thread where you retrieved zenyee's .CAB, but i cannot remember for sure.

after some quick google "research"... it seems there are other apps similar to phonelog available for blackberry and android... but phonelog may be the only one of its kind for WM.

here is a request on another (microsoft) forum - http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/outlook/thread/66e9160d-46ed-452c-91fa-6f3a6a88f86d

there are other folk out there who share your request. maybe some further integration could be on the horizon.

let me know how you go with HTC messaging VS WINMO.

[Android Software Development] DBBGBA:
Hey this is my first post here. :D I've been using a nexus one for a while now and I downloaded quite a few applications. I have to say thought that I was quite disappointed by the graphical diversity that lingers around the android platform. As a vfx artist I like my phone to work but also to look nice and sometimes the two things are not present in android.

So I was wondering if someone is interested in writing down some guidelines to better UI designs and maybe provide developers with some graphical help. My idea was not to copy the iphone ui or the new windows mobile 7 but to take what Google has done and expand it to provide cleaner and more interesting UIs to apps.

What do you guys think, is anyone on board for this?
[Android Software Development] androidlicious:
Sadly, I think that this is probably the largest problem on Android devices. The huge inconsistency of the UI throughout makes Android devices hard to use when compared to, say, an iPhone. For example, the stock GMail app has a white background against black text, but the stock Email app has a black against white background. Both apps have essentially the same functions but the way to perform those functions and manage their settings are completely different.

:confused:
[Android Software Development] atoz350:
So they look the same, or did you twist your words?
[Android Software Development] androidlicious:
Well, I was trying to come up with a good example but I guess that it didn't come across as such. I guess another example is the camera application. I mean, its UI and design looks completely different from all the other applications...
