[EVO 4G General] YoungAceAtlanta:
the battery really aint that bad as people say. I tweet, text, email, phone calls all day and i get about 8-11 hours. which isnt that bad. since its suppose to only get 5hours.

It depends on you. if you turning the screen on and off showing it off you bound to kill your battery. the screen pulls the most energy. when your signal is bad. its best to go to wifi or just to airplane mode. signal kills your battery because everytime you drop signal or its just weak your phone is always pinging cell towers and trying find one
[EVO 4G General] Jus10o:
This is a big issue for battery. You are right on about bad signal.

If you are in an area with bad signal this will be your number 1 cause of bad battery life.

When at work inside the building I get bad service and i lose tons of battery. When im at home or off work my batterys close to impossible to kill (i was calibrating my battery, it took foreverrrr for it to die).
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
My first two charges ran me less then 4 hours, but this third charge I'm currently running on is going on 6.5 hours and only just hit 40%. Maybe with more discharge/recharge cycles ill get even more life!
[EVO 4G General] Jus10o:
After about a week or so of using the phone and charging alot. Calibrate the battery by charging it too 100% and then unplug it and use the phone until its so dead that it turns off. Charge the phone again till its 100% without unplugging it.

This will make a huge difference in battery life. Also when switching roms, usually ones very different from each other. This method will help increase battery life a lottt.
[EVO 4G General] Akulamenuri:
I thought there wasnt a need power cycle lithium ion batteries
[EVO 4G General] Jus10o:
It doesnt hurt to charge it whenever you want for as often as you want. Doing what i said above just once will help a ton though.

Even sprint will tell you to do the same most of the time if you have bad battery life or when very first buying the a phone.
[EVO 4G General] brennen.exe:
Figured I would post what I have right now. This includes about 45 minutes of talk time, 60 minutes of web browsing, easily 60+ minutes of (local) music, 25 minutes using remote desktop, 20 minutes using HomePipe, and the rest is e-mail, text messages, and various other minor tasks. The phone has been off the charger since I powered it on (after a full charge), and has had WiFi, 4G, and GPS disabled most of the time. I had WiFi and GPS on for a small amount of time, I don't recall how long.

Up Time: 26:48:29

Awake Time: 3:48:47

Remaining Battery ~20%
[EVO 4G General] steb0ne:
My battery life has been pretty good IMO... it's advertised as having "Up to 6 hours talk time"... I think that'd also mean, up to 6 hours continuous data AND/OR talk time...which is about what I get.

No 4g around here, just heavy data usage hardly any voice.

But I also have on of these:

A rechargeable, battery charger :D
[EVO 4G General] prjkthack:
I concur. I work inside a building that gets terrible signal from Sprint and the battery dies in less than 6 hours. Its absolutely terrible. As soon as I get back outside, I can go crazy with the phone and the battery will barely move. I think I am going to try switching the radio off entirely to see what happens when at work.
[EVO 4G General] turbodude:
15 hours of pretty heavy lifting.

Some phone calls, some wifi, some 4g, a good amount of web browsing, alot of texting, some grooveshark, some btunes.

screens attached.
[EVO 4G General] finsmaniac02:
1st part - are you guys recommending that when I am at home I should hop on wifi and leave it on wifi no matter what I am doing (even with phone in idle sleeping)? Or just if I intend on getting online and such?

2nd part - when putting on wifi, is there something I should do to turn OFF the 3G/data connection through cell towers or does it do this automatically?

Sorry if this sounds noobish, I just always assumed wifi hurt the battery
[EVO 4G General] thecodemonk:
I went from pulling the phone off fully charged at noon on saturday until I went to bed on Sunday night at 10pm with 20% battery left once I fixed the wake lock problem by killing the currently faulty calendar process.
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
22 hours??? no way! :eek: did you do anything to prep the battery? (discharge, recharge 6 times etc)
[EVO 4G General] d0m1n0:
Or download Advanced Task Killer from the market...you'll see that 20+ apps are running in the background. Day 1 I fully charged, normal use, was dead in 4 hours. Then set ATK to aggressive killing every 30 minutes. So every 30 minutes I get a message saying "9 apps killed", "10 apps killed", etc. Now battery lasts all day on single charge with normal use. Above average use of videos, games, web browsing, it will last 3/4 of the day.
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
can you explain to me how you set task killer to aggressive? i dunno if i'm just blind or what, but i can't find settings:rolleyes:

[HD2 General] HyperNode:
Ya I also got the message yesterday afternoon. I knew TMo already had rolled out 2.13 stock rom as I upgraded it from my standard 2.10 stock rom more than 3weeks ago. I am also aware it had issues as reported by many people also to add fuel to the fire for some unknown reason TMo decided to pull the download out making it offline. So thinking this maybe be a new revision of the stock rom 2.13 I desided to check it out and found its the same 2.13.531.1 TMo stock rom.

HTC HD2 Software Update Now Available on T-Mobile.com!
[HD2 General] kiladubz:
.....For the record people, there was NOTHING wrong with the initial release, T-Mob just had some bandwidth issues caused by all the simultaneous downloads....hope this clears it up.
[Hero CDMA General] sgtcody:
So, in a few hours I will move on to the Evo. I wanted to take a moment to thank my Hero for introducing me to the best OS and to everyone here who helped me learn to make it my b*tch.

My Hero is looking forward to a new life with my bartender.. a more exciting life for sure.

See y'all in the Evo forum!

The RadioShack here only has 1 Evo, and if I wanted it I'd have to be at RadioShack with $500 right now.
[Hero CDMA General] Konikub:
Well I've seen $500 dollars on here....I've even seen $550 on the web for the EVO....but I just checked sprint.com and they are selling them regular price $449. That makes me smile just a bit :)

[EVO 4G General] sasigns:
I dont understand sprints logic when it comes to selling phones. The ones in my area are not pre ordering the evo and encourage you to camp out and wait in line and they are making you pay $299 with $100 mail in.

RS did my pre order gave me a $20 credit toward a charger or what not and the $100 is instant.

its like they want you to buy from somewhere other than an actual sprint retail store.
[EVO 4G General] shep211:
Most stores are sold out so most users have only sprint stores to buy from. The sprint stores will also have covers, hdmi cable(that you cant find anywhere) & some other goodies they wont talk about. I have my evo already but i am going to go to my local sprint store for my accessories.
[EVO 4G General] sasigns:
Cool so I guess Ill grab my phone tomorrow at 7am and hit the sprint store to check out the extras that they have !

Because I was getting it through my company's affiliation with Sprint (25% off my rate), and I thought I HAD to go through Sprint directly. I later found out I could have gone any place and still gotten the discount applied, plus didn't need to fill out the $100 rebate. DOH!

i would like to get it at the shack or bb... however like 2 weeks ago I decided that I should test out sprints network before selling my nexus one and jumping ship from att to sprint and well.... i signed up online just for a palm phone to test the network and the only way i can trade it in would be at a sprint store...... could cancel and resign up however i ported my # over.

I am new to developing android games.

When the android market opens to canadian sellers I am offering up a permanent cut of the sales to whomever is chosen for the programming as updates will need to be made over time (aside from bug fixes).

[Android Software Development] Psi-ko1:
I guess I wasn't clear with the request. Not all the programming is to be done by someone else and is not an Action RPG, Its a cardgame related to the

CARD

RPG genre, the difficulty is my programming is out of date and I am looking more for a mentor to watch over me and someone who is more familiar with the apk architecture. I could have easily taken a Poker game and shredded it for code and exceptions but that is a little more complicated. But I guess its easier to beat a person down verbally then inquire with decency.

I've stop doing these kind of trade out because the person who owns the account will never show you the actual numbers.

There must be a way to work together on app development, even if only one of them has access to the market account. For instance, you could add a certificate mechanism in the program that adds the other party into the application activation process?

Anyway, if you're willing to pay the dev his/her commercial hourly rate I'm sure you can work out a deal.

Such an odd thread - I wonder how many developers working for the big games houses expect to own all the code they are paid to write. Oh, wait... Yeah, fundamental flaw in certain replies here I guess?
[Android Software Development] jgittins:
I get paid a salary for the code I write for my employer. The OP isn't offering a salary.
[Android Software Development] rTiGd2:
Just because he/she lacks the resources to provide a salary (or fixed rate) doesn't really open the doors for such mocking replies though. After all, there are many good/great ideas from people who lack the ability to produce them, the same as there are many great developers who lack the ideas for something to write.

At the end of the day, every project has to start somewhere and this could be with funding in place, developing and idea to obtain funding, or starting something as a team of individuals who agree how to split revenue from a final product.

For example, the comment that 'ideas are worth nothing' implies that every great gaming idea came from a developer. If that were the case, game design positions wouldn't exist.

The fone told me it couldnt complete the excercise so I zipped back into settings to remedy the problem. When all was fixed I again tried to send the video as an attachment. pointed the email program to the phots/vidoe folder and whammmm, the video is gone. Search high and low for the thing, as far as I can make out it aint anywhere to be found. Now,,,, I know dam well I didnt authorize it,s deletion so where would it be. Could it have been put somewhere in the phone directory somewhere. I havent as yet pulled my mem card and checked it with the computer. Maybe theres a hidden folder somewhere where problems like this are put.

This happens 1/3 of the time, and is getting annoying. Is there a fix for this, has anyone else had the same problem, should i call Verizon? Can anyone direct/move me to a different thread. Looking for any leads at all.

Hi Jonathan.

I was having that problem for a while, too. I saw a suggestion on a forum that has seemed to help me. There is an option in your settings on 2.1 that automatically quiets the ringer of your phone when you pick up the phone. I switched this setting to OFF, and it has seemed to alleviate my problems. I hope that helps!

[HD2 General] theblake:
Hey, small problem here. I was charging my HD2 earlier today with no problems at all, I flashed the 1.72 stock ROM back onto my phone, and it seemed to be charging fine for a small while after that. But now, after I tried charging my phone, it doesn't seem to recognise there's a USB connection at all. The LED at the speaker-grille isn't doing anything, and the the phone tells me it isn't connected by USB when it's plugged into a computer.

I tried a tonne of things, checked the cable and switched it, soft-reset it, took the battery out, hard reset it, and even blown inside the socket to try and get rid of anything that might be blocking it, but it just isn't showing it's plugged in AT ALL any more... and now the battery is dead, so I can't do anything with it now to try and help it. :/

The only sign I have that the phone realises it has any sort of USB connection, is when I tried to hard reset the device, (I used the hold volUp+volDown+Power method) and it shows the message 'press volUp to hard reset,' usually when I do this, pressing volume up doesn't do anything when the phone is connected by USB for some weird reason - and I have to disconnect USB for the phone to hard reset. I figured this wouldn't happen if the phone doesn't realise it has a USB connection, but when the cable was plugged in, it still wouldn't hard reset until I took it out. So it shows there must be some way the phone knows it's connected.

I'm running the WWE 1.72 ROM with radio 2.10. 50.08_2 if it helps.

Any suggestions?

-try a different cable (if you have one)

I'm having a similar problem. I had plugged in a new retractable usb cable, and when I did, the phone shut off. I rebooted, and tried my original cable, but the phone doesn't charge or sync. I've also tried hard/soft reset, wall charger, usb charger, and none of that seems to work.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
[HD2 General] DJShadesUK:
No idea if this is related or not but my USB connection stopped working after I got the "bttrayce.exe is not a valid pocket pc application" problem (Thanks TomTom! :rolleyes: ) so it would appear the USB port has some weird dependencies!

Fixed it by renaming the windows\btsdkce30.dll file (added "[temp]" to the name just in case!) and soft-resetting.

Might be worth a try?

USB Issue

I've got exactly the same issue, running HyperROM 3.01.405.T1 and Radio 2.06.51.07.

Suddenly USB isn't working, tried various cables and I suspect it's a software issue somewhere.

Charging isn't a problem at the moment, I have a charging station (ebay from Hong Kong) so I can access the phone and try and resovle this.

I'm going to go back to the stock rom (I assume I'll find that somewhere on XDA) and upddate the Radio version and see if that sorts it.

If anyone has worked out what's casuing this generally let me know as I can imagine this will take a lot of trial and error to solve!

I looked at the forums and it was recommended to delete files Windows\BtSdkCE30.dll and

\Windows\BtCoreIf.dll, so i did.

Unfortunately my usb connection is now not working, and i think it could be related to the deletion of those 2 files.

I made a hard reset, but the problem still persists.

can anyone help me please?
