somone post a damn link to a video of the process u guys are using to get good battery life
[EVO 4G General] topdnbass:
The process is to get rid of whatever is using your cpu cycles while your phone is inactive.

Yeh damage control I now get 22 hours if awake time

B efore id get 18 hours of uptime.

Dc is the best I have tested then all. I get 34 wakeups in powertop. Do that test on any other rom you ll get 2 to 3 times that
[EVO 4G General] minyaen:
I clocked 32 hours with moderate use. And I am using an app killer... but I just watched for apps that were CPU hogs and found replacements for them. There aren't too many that affect it so much to trade them out, but you might be surprised by your findings

[EVO 4G General] fallentimm:
No way I'm beating thee crap out of it. Dc limits higher cpu speeds with dconfig so if you have that option checked its slower but who cares I don't notice it saves batery like crazy. I'm on speaker phone conference calls all day. Bluetooth/gps on. Exchange sync as items arrive. Its crazy good I'm using syspannel monitoring ilk posy screenshoys, tomorrow.

L I ikesais, powertop gives me 30-40 wakeups. Some roms,are in the hundreds or thousands, but the proof will be the screenshoys tomortow, or try it yourself

[EVO 4G General] holob:
My battery life has been great since the 1.4x update... As an FYI the facebook syncing from 1.3x caused SERIOUS battery drain if you had it linked to a facebook account and had the HTC people widget on your home screen. I used 2 gigs a week while having the phone on wifi at home most of the time due to this bug!
[EVO 4G General] camoody1:
So, at what point do I just throw in the towel and ask for a replacement battery from Sprint?

I've done the "battery circle jerk" twice, now, with no improvement. In fact, this morning, after completing my third jerk (battery jerk - get your minds out of the gutter), my battery percentage fell to 95% after 10 minutes of almost no use. Either this battery is bad, or the EVO has some serious issues with topping-off a charge.
[EVO 4G General] jasonleb1:
^I have the same problem.
[EVO 4G General] muncheroo:
Losing thee first ten percent q quickly is very normal with this phone.once it his 85% it'll start to even out. Personally I've notice charging with the wall charger seems trio make this problem a little better

Hahahaha battery circle jerk. I like it! I've done the jerk solo, with friends, and with my sister and none of our EVO's seem to be improv..... wait, ewwwww.

[EVO 4G General] stewie-droid:
+2. Mine does exactly same thing. Can't figure out if it's battery that's bad or something wrong with the phone or simply people lie about the battery life usage. I seen someone posted a system panel screenshot with battery barely decreasing but when i take a look at "device usage" for 5-6hrs it was not used. Comical if that's how ppl get 20-40hrs of usage. This confused me more as i don't know if some evos have issue or if people just lie. Waiting for those screenshots of system panel someone promised.

Here is NOT mine but what i was referring to in the post. Notice that device usage is none for good 6hrs and % of CPU usage is at around 1-3% which is what phone would use when it was sleeping/idle. I would love for someone to show me a screenshot with high device usage intermittently throwout the day and get 14hrs of use. I'll settle for that but please 20-40hrs ???? Please show me!!!!

You should try the undervolt kernal with this.

Incredible...
[EVO 4G General] silkyt:
Those running stock roms or looking for a simple solution:

Go to settings/accounts &sync and turn off auto-sync

Install power save mode toggle (android market)

Go to dialer hit *#*#4636#*#*

Select phone information

Set preferred network type to CDMA auto PRL (might get force close but don’t worry)
[EVO 4G General] stewie-droid:
That's all been explored on my side. CDMA auto PRL actually came default on the phone so i didn't need to do code. All those steps help but it won't get me threw 12 hrs period even with setcpu on damand at max of 614Mhz so i'm cutting power by 40%. I use phone an FULL hour on the train in am, hour on lunch and hour on train back. All using twitter, facebook and internet browsing. I'm gonna try undervolt next but i had it for half a day and couldn't see a difference but i can't make that judgment just yet since that was not a test.

What is the best settings for the schedule and traffic triggers using ultimate juice to save the most battery for the HTC evo 4g
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Albaholic:
I don't think Ultimate Juice works well on CDMA phones... unless that was recently changed

Edit: I stand corrected apparently there are experimental builds available for CDMA. Ulitimate Juice increased my battery life on my n1 quite noticeably. I'll gladly try it on the evo.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] healthpellets:

Is there a Recent Documents application? I have recently learned that the recent documents tab in Sense is an energy hog. Is there an application version of it? By disabling the tab and using the application, wouldn't this save some energy?
[Touch HD General] anoniem:
heey guyz,

As written above, my problem is that my htc HD does not support Sense anymore!

I've tried several ROMS and a lot of Chefs but all had the same result at the end!

The Problem:

When I flash a rom (with sense) the first time it works perfectly, but after one reset it sticks at startup screen and does not show the sense app, I only can get into the start menu.

This is what I already tried:

-Tried several roms, kitchens, chefs, restaurants etc

-Tried flashing with 3x hardreset after complete

-Tried Task29

-Tried to shut off the sense app and switch to WM standard home screen but this gives the same result after 4 or 5 days (currently using energy ROM no problems with WM standard home screen but with the sense)

Please any solution? I need help as fast as possible cuz I'm going on vacation the 9th for almost 6 weeks and I don't want a crappy phone!!

sorry for my bad bad English!
[Touch HD General] EthanX:
Well, I guess he's already on his vacation. Maybe it's not all that bad, we all spend too much time on our phones anyway... Might just clear some time for him to enjoy the vacation :p

Anyway, I'd try to flash a 1.56 stock rom first using the official HTC tool and then try again. That might help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeknoJnky:
My 4g was in some state where the settings constantly showed 'turning on...' but would not work or even show 'scanning'

after numerous reboots and turning things off/on, I finally got working again:

- turned on airplane mode

- powered off (hold power key, power off)

- waited about 30 seconds

- powered on (click power key)

- turned off airplane mode, radio's automatically powered on and 4g connected.

I don't know what caused the issue, but starting up in airplane mode fixed it for me.

Ok, so I've flashed to a ROM that I love and adore, but there are 2 things wrong with it:

HTC Messenging (with Sense 2.5 so it can't be overridden yet) and there's no Swype. If my beloved rom had those two issues fixed, I would be so happy!

Is there a way I could make those small tweaks myself so as not to bother the ROM chef?

Thanks

OK, so I was looking at the damages thread and it seems someone else had a problem with their wifi. Just go to the damage control thread and search wifi and you should see the post.

the person said to make sure that both 4g and wifi were not both on at the same time. I dont know if that applies to you if you use 4g. But anywho, someone mentioned it could be the bad radio update if you said you applied that one. In that case, someone mentioned that using the starting over guide may work.

I would search the thread and see if that situation is similar to yours and follow the instructions to start over. I will see if I can find some more info.

Where can I get this ROM?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1h-yJPq8M0

It seems HTC official..

found the original source: http://www.myppc.it/web/viewtopic.php?t=3352&f=44

It's gonna be released today
[Desire General] rolfd:
It's buried in HERE
[Desire General] ruffruff:
It's a prototype test Rom from HTC. ROM has watermark and tracking. Not supposed for public release.

Let's just wait for the public official release which should not be too far...
[Desire General] foxmeister:
If you mean the HTC official release, there's no guarantee of that.

There were leaked builds of 2.1 with Sense for the Hero more than 6 months before they actually started to release it.

Whilst I don't expect the Desire release to be too far away, I'm just pointing out that the existence of an almost feature complete 2.2 with Sense leaked build, doesn't necessarily mean that HTC will release the final soon (though they may of course!).

What does work in our favour at the moment is that the Desire/EVO/Incredible still look to be the flagship HTC Android phones for a few more months, whereas with the Hero HTC wanted to sell Nexus One's, Desires, and Legends and the delay looked very much like a cynical attempt to boost sales on the newer devices first.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jim2point0:
Hi,

So I recently read an article stating that Froyo might be coming to the EVO a little later than expected. Seeing as I'm already considering the Samsung Epic, this almost tipped me over the edge. So I decided to look into this "rooting" business everyone keeps talking about.

The HTC EVO is my first android phone... so sorry if I ask some dumb questions.

My biggest concern right now is... if I root my EVO, can I put Android 2.2 on it? One of the things I don't like about my EVO is its speed. It seems a little slow. Animation seems choppy. Games existing for both the EVO and iPod touch 2G run slower on the EVO... which baffles me.

I've read that one of the reasons Froyo might be delayed is the HTC Sense UI. I imagine that if I put Froyo on my EVO, it will lack the Sense UI. Now this is my first droid, so I don't know what a phone without Sense would look like. What would be missing?

Thanks in advance for anyone answering any of my questions :)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jurearh:
Hello,

I'm new to the Android scene and already I have a problem.

I successfully upgraded my HTC Magic with Cyanogenmod.

I did it exactly like it said in the instructions on cyanogenmod wiki.

Installed Android SDK R05 for Windows and used:

bc-4.2.15.1-ebi1-signed

recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.6.2H.img

update-cm-4.2.15.1-signed

DRC83_base_defanged

HTC_ADP_1.6_DRC83_rooted_base

So i did the magic on Magic and the CyanogenMod worked, at least until recently.

My co-worker asked me to lend him my sdcard so i opened the magic and took out the sdcard from my htc that was on while i did that.

Than the trouble came forth...After a reboot the phone started booting for a long time...than it showed an error that the sdcard wasn't unmounted properly, and it didn't go away even when i inserted the sdcard back in, even after a hundred or so reboots. Than it started to crash the processes (acore and such)

Than after a milionth reboot the screen and the accelerometer stoped working, soon after that the keys followed the screen and the acc. I was thinking maybe the screen and the keys stoped working permanently and wanted to throw the phone away. But after another optimistic restart the keys worked for some time than the ball when pressed stoped responding...so i could highlight an icon on the home screen but couldn't start it. Than i accidentaly pressed it on the screen and it worked, but shortly after that everything was dead again. Than the phone started rebooting on a low battery. When rebooting to bootloader (with the battery fully charged) the screen flashes and nothing responds. But it still shows in a flash those three androids on the skates. And i can't seem to adb push the recovery.img to the sdcard...states some Read only problem. Sdcard seems alright through the card reader. So that is about it of all the problems.

So i was hoping some experts on here could give me some feedback on the device. Is it finished or can I rescue it. I really fell in love with this phone so I would much rather here the second option. I'm attaching the log from adb logcat if it is for any use to any of you...

Thanks in advance ;)

Hi All

My desire's current software version is 1.15.405.4 but I've read that HTC released a 1.21 version earlier this year. However, when I tell the phone to check for updates it always says it's up to date and a newer version is not available.

Is this right? Thanks for your time in advance.
