I'm at 65% after 7 hours. Noticeable increase in life. My time without service is 12% too. I had a meeting in our black hole conference room where there is no coverage. I thought battery would be toast for sure after that. Very impressed so far.

[EVO 4G General] oblivion0:
Yep, to the letter. I'd throw in a screenshot of my device kernel but unfortunately the update broke the limited root access!
[EVO 4G General] mrmomoman:
Android so happens to do a lot more in the background at this point. Sure you can lock some things down to not start and that would help.

Also you are not powering a larger screen compared to the EVO so that drives the battery down. Apple does put the extra in their battery as they pride themselves throughout their MacBook line up, IPAD, IPODS and IPHONES for long battery life.

It looks like HTC is on their way to making it better and that counts doesn't it? :)

[Droid Incredible General] thawkth:
So I just installed the Yeti Vanilla Rom and I am LOVING it so far (keyboard might take some getting used to...) Anyway, noticed something interesting...

I noticed my battery start to get a little low and plugged it in after installing this ROM. While the light has turned green, the indicator on the lock screen only said 90%.

It's been about five minutes and now it says 93%. Is this poof that the phone isn't fully charged when the light turns green? I have read many arguments on this topic ;)

Just wondering if anyone found this interesting. Might be a total non issue but I figured I'd mention it.
[Droid Incredible General] digitalicecream:
It's not fully charged.

I've been testing this the last few days. The only way to charge fully that I've found is to power it off and charge. then I get about 16 hours of use, up from the average 6.
[Droid Incredible General] gummehbear:
im curious if different roms can get the actual battery reading, or maybe even fix the charging bug associated with the incredible (and EVO).
[Droid Incredible General] marcmarshall:
It may be that the engineers want the batteries charged more gently and not as fully. Check out the info on Li ion batteries at batteryuniversity.com

Hi, I got the following SMS this morning from T-Mobile, "You'll soon receive the download to update your T-Mobile HD2. It's free & there's no charge for the download, all you need to do is accept. T-Mobile".

Now, this dont sound right. Firmware files are normally huge and I have never had a message like this before. I have the 1.66 stock ROM and not the 1.72 T-Mobile one which is pants.

Has anyone else had this message or the updates and if so what are the updates.

Thanks

John
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
I got a text from them when they released the 1.72. It wasnt worded like that though....... and I havent had a message like that from them recently.

Maybe they're going to send you Android to run on your HD2 :D

Or maybe not............

[HD2 General] conantroutman:
Install what?? Is it a link to something or did they actually send you a file.........
[HD2 General] djingonthenet:
Just received the same text. Have noticed connection issues over the past few days, this update maybe something to do with this?? It's not going to be a rom update as that would be huge and would obviously wipe the phone on install - something that T-mob cannot legally force on you surely?
[HD2 General] djingonthenet:
PS anyone get this message running a stock t-mobile rom. Mine's Stock HTC 1.66 - they might be on to us defectors :eek:

I'm so glad you wrote this post OP! I was going to ask about that text, which I also received this morning, over on the T-Mobile forum but my forum user details are not what I thought they were so couldn't log in.

Like a few of you have written here, I'm not installing it until I know what it is. I'm afraid of all my phone content and contacts being wiped.

I also received a text about a ROM update just like the first respondent to this thread but I didn't want to ruin what is already a working phone!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cveteca:
Hi everybody,

Recently I bought the HTC Desire, but I found out that it has some issues connecting to wifi through some routers . Currently at home I am using Linksys router. I see my network on the phone and I connect to it. But when I try to browse any page it just gives me the "page not found, check your connection" screen.And at work where the router is other brand (don't remember which) I do not have that problem. I have searched the net for similar issues and I found a lot of people experiencing them but nowhere I could see a fix it. Does somebody here had the issue and most of all-fixed it.

Thank you.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Does your router have MAC filtering enabled and DNS server IP addresses applied?

On your phone, go to Settings, Wireless & Networks, Wi-Fi settings. Press Menu, select Advanced. Try selecting Static IP and enter the same DNS addresses as your router for DNS1 and DNS2.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cveteca:
I've tried that. My phone all the time connects to the router and it says that the connection is excellent .But the problem is that I can not load any pages. I was hoping if anyone have experienced the same problem and have a resolution for it?

Ok I know this has been asked around for Sense UI Roms but I would really like to know if anyone has been able to use the 2.0 unlock screen in 2.1 firmware. I know the framework PNGs are there so I assume its possible. Im just not sure how. I also dont want to go the route of using an app like lockbot because it just doesnt work the same and kinda slow sometimes. I just really like the 2.0 version so if anyone knows that would be greatly appreciated.
[Android Themes] boldfilter:
LockBot Pro in market has the 2.0 lock on it
[Android Themes] jrharvey:
I realize that but the problem is that I just dont like lockbot. Sometimes it just doesnt lock and sometimes the background isnt there and sometimes it reverts back to 2.1 lock screen. Not a big fan of lockbot for those reasons.
[Android Themes] JokerAce:
I did tried to do some replacement with the .apks and .pngs but to no avail. It seems that there is problem with the Meta-infs and .jar files. When I was using 1.5 roms, I could easily port different apks to and fro my phone. It seems to prove difficult for 2.1 roms.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViViDboarder:
Hey everyone, I'm new to Android and just looking to get situated with everything.

I use Gmail for my email and I've found the stock Gmail app to be ALMOST exactly what I need. Major flaws are zooming in and out and selecting text are impossible and it really annoys me.

Basically the features I want are:

Push or IMAP, I like the delivery speed of the Gmail App

Label support, or if folders are used then the ability to Star/Flag/COPY to folders instead of just moving

Zooming out for viewing large emails

It would be nice to have a unified inbox, but not a big deal for me

I'm pretty disappointed with the Gmail app missing some of these key usability features. Is the HTC mail program better in any way? Are there any other options that work well?

Thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cosine83:
Pretty sure the GMail app has label support. You can star and label things as is since "folders" are just labels in GMail anyways. Push for GMail is a FroYo feature, afaik. Looking forward to that instead of having an active connection for my GMail.

Zooming out would be nice but on the Evo's screen it doesn't seem like it would be really needed unless you have people e-mailing you that don't know how to press the enter key every now and then. I haven't tried zooming in/out in the HTC e-mail app but I doubt it's present there. Seems like a low priority feature, imo.

The non-GMail e-mail program is pretty good. Supports POP, IMAP and Exchange ActiveSync. Unified Inbox, no. Personally, I dislike a unified inbox as I like to know who is sending me stuff where and with what address I should be replying with. I've yet to setup folders and such but I expect you can since folders are a pretty basic function for e-mail. I know the Exchange ActiveSync will sync folders, contacts, and calendar so you probably can.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViViDboarder:
Yea, the Gmail app does have Labels, which are essentially folders.

The Gmail app is perfect IMHO except zooming and selecting text. The zooming is an issue for emails I get that are HTML formatted. Like Gamestop or Best Buy, etc... They usually have big headers and text with padding on the left. This makes the text all out of my view. The only way to read then is to turn my phone sideways and/or scroll left to right as I read... A little anoying. I noticed this issue in the HTC mail program too.

I also noticed today that I can't select text or copy it from emails in the Gmail application. I'm not sure if this is an issue in other clients as well or what.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nenn:
not to thread jack by any means, but this seems relevant to my question, somewhat. does anyone know how to (when you have multiple accounts linked) have it send from a specific account or am i limited to the one i have synced with my phone?

thanks and i hope you get your problems resolved, i wish i could select text too, its a bit annoying that that feature isnt there.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Minjin:
Gmail app works perfectly for my purposes but you are right that it doesn't have zoom or the ability to cut and paste. If you come across an email where you need either of these two, just open up your browser and go to Gmail from there. Both of those functions work perfectly on the mobile gmail site.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViViDboarder:
Yea, that's what I've been doing. Just a little tedious considering they are pretty basic features. Not really dealbreakers for me though.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carguy4471:
I'll throw in a vote for k9. I use it to manage 3 emails, two IMAP emails through godaddy and my gmail. It works great for me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Minjin:
Oh I agree. I am all for decreasing keystrokes/screen presses. That's the reason I have Camcorder and Camera on my home screen. I should only need one but if I'm in a hurry to capture something, the fact that it takes an extra three screen presses to switch between video/still means that I might miss it.

I think it's quite likely that Gmail will be updated to include those basic features in the near future.

Try this: in a lighted room (not indoor -> outdoors moves), use your finger to block light sensor.

How much time the auto adjustment needs to adjust the brightscreen?

With my original 6.1, it was really instantly. Now with 6.5 that I'm using (NXXJA5), it takes 1 - 1,5 secs.

I know we are talking about seconds, but it really p**s my off...

If you using 6.1, please, share it. But I decided to try other .dll ROM files to try to make auto adjustment better as it was. ;)

Unfortunately after the first soft reset after the installing, the device can't wake up from the standby. No sound, no light, nothing. The only way is a soft reset.

Seems that the failed wake up from the standby status is due by the Samsung SDK, as you can see from the user's feedback on the 2.1 SDK on Samsung Innovator page, so, is not a QuickMark fault.
