My black battery cover came yesterday - and it looks so sweet on my white Evo. Thanks for the inspiration, TC ;)

I've opted to go naked now - forgot how sleek the phone was. I love the soft-touch of the black too. One thing I've noticed now though since I removed my case is that the paint is coming off in little bits in the power charger hole - with the white it looks pink. Yuk.

I've tried the ROM "New 21916", It's pretty fast & stable Abhy.

And it's quite a new ROM with auto date & time update when you remove/

I need my battery to last a full day with medium use. What is the best ROM/Kernel combination I should use?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ms79723:
i think fresh is supposed to be the best battery wise...but the negative is that you have to use its kernel. and its kernel doesnt allow overclocking/underclocking with apps such as setcpu and it also has the 30fps cap.

but if battery is what you need go for it. i also say go for it if you've never flashed a kernel to remove the 30fps. if you've never flashed a kernel to move the cap you wouldnt be able to tell the difference

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerryparid:
Most ROMs are built on the same HTC OTA releases (except for CM6, which has worse battery life than HTC OTA's); kernels are usually the thing that differentiates their battery life.

Fresh uses the leaked OTA stock kernel. You can probably flash this kernel to any regular OTA based rom.

...but the HTC Kernel has NOTHING on Backed Snacks Kernel #6. Go read the Baked Snacks thread thread. The battery life is literally ridiculous with Kernel #6.

The 30 FPS limit and SetCPU are two different things. SetCPU will allow you to overclock/underclock your phone's CPU. The 30 FPS limit is a video limitation and will need a kernel to remove.

I'm currently running Baked Snack 1.7 and I believe his stock kernel. I get about 14-15 hours with medium/heavy use.

Will be checking out kernel #6 later today.

I've got to throw EViO 2 v1.2 ROM in the mix. Both Baked and Fresh gave me great battery life, but so does EViO. Right now, I have EViO 2 v1.2 paired with Net's CFS 4.1.9.1 and my device is seeing amazing battery life and performance.

It is included in 1.7
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_hustleman:
Ok you wanna know the real truth?

it isn't gonna matter.

there's CM6 that I haven't tried - haven't seen a need to since it ****s up everything, I mean I can't even get my 4g and I can't have HTC sense - the whole point of an HTC phone is to have HTC sense!!! There are "vanilla" android phones, if you don't want sense get those lol.

But with all the other ROMS, I've tried baked snack with all the kernels, I've tried Fresh (I'm using that one now - LOVE the boot screen/sound), I've tried Damage Control, I've tried so many things, yet and still the same thing happens - 12 hours at best.

The people that claim to get 24+ hours use out of it are lying - you can tell when they post their screen shots and "Idle" and "standby" percentages are the biggest ones out of all of them. IDLE and STANDBY means it's NOT being used. So don't buy into the claims of a day and a half use out of it because it's simply not true.

NOW, if you don't actually use the phone except to do a little internet surfing, a lot of texts, or few light, short phone calls, then you'll probably get a day out of it - but what's the point of an EVO if that's all you do? The EVO is 200 bucks, the hero is only 30 bucks at best buy, if those are all the features you use, then the HERO is all that you need! Save that 130 bucks.

Personally I like my phone, I bought it for a reason, I USE my apps, I USE my front camera, I USE my bluetooth, I enjoy my phone, I play music, I use the phone for its intended purposes because I paid for it for a reason.

Check my thread HERE and you'll see what I mean - someone else came in and dropped some knowledge on the subject.

people claiming those incredible battery life stats are exaggerating/just plain LYING
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DRatJr:
Dang, well I just do a lot of texting, FB, music. The reason I brought this up is because I had 75% battery left and I texted maybe every or 10 minutes and had music on. It lasted 4 hours from 75 - 45. But then like 1:30 with 45 left. It was rediculous.

I have tried CM6, I like the ROM, but not good battery life. I have also tried Virus ROM series, and none either. I am on Baked Snack 1.6 w/ kernel 6 right now, best of all, but I hate the look of it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sporkman:
you seem to have NO IDEA what CM6 is or what AOSP really is and to say people are lying about 20 + hour battery life is just plain asinine i normally get 20 + hours on Cm6 with moderate use in a building that love to drain battery life when in at work i steam pandora and still get 20 hours per charge.

and how is CM6 "****ing" things up Oh 4g and sense refer back to my comment on how your shoving said foot in mouth !
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ms79723:
im in the same boat as you. the music is what kills me the most even with it underclocked to 245 and the screen off...but with baked its a lot better, doesnt drain as much.

i say just hit up the baked 1.7 and see if you like kernel #6. its worth a shot. so far its been great for me (without music)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emeraldayotte:
Oh really! I'm a medium/heavy user and I was averaging 10-12 hrs BEFORE installing a custom ROM/kernel. I can easily get 14-18 hours since installing Baked Snacks 1.7

In addition to my usage pattern:

GPS is always on

Twitter (Twidroyd) syncing every 30 mins

Facebook syncing every hour

Exchange email is "as items arrive". I also receive 20-40 emails a day

No task killer running

setCPU hasn't been installed yet (not using Juice Defender either)

lol@people on here claiming these incredible battery lives.

I've done LESS on the phone and gotten LESS battery life with Baked Snack, even less than that with Fresh.

I haven't had a stock rom on my phone since I first rooted it a month after I got it, but I have YET to get 20 hours out of a STOCK battery.

I've used overclockwidget, I've used Juice Defender, I've turned off auto-sync, and the results aren't MUCH different.

People on here had me thinking it was something wrong with one of my apps, so I flashed fresh once again (people claim a day and a half of actual use!) and didn't install a single app. I got if I remember correctly about 9 or 10 hours of juice out of it. All I did was text and a few phone calls.

GPS, wifi, 4G STAYED OFF - yet nothing.

did the same on my fiancé's phone and my moms phone, they both got the exact same results I did.

That's when I knew it wasn't my EVO that was the problem - it's just the evo PERIOD!

YES, custom roms give a little more juice, but it ain't miraculous like people on here make it out to be.

What I notice when people say "moderate use" I notice they REALLY are referring to "barely any" use lol.

I've followed every battery-saving tip out there, NONE OF THEM WORKED, flashed the rom people on here said to flash, NONE OF THEM WORKED! I still have YET to get past the 12 hour mark with USE on a stock battery.

Yes, I've had over 24 hours of battery life before - but guess what? I wasn't using the phone much at all

here's one time when I got over 15 hours out of it - but guess what? I was sleep for 8 of those hours

notice how phone idle and cell standby are the biggest battery drainers? yeah, not doing anything.

If anyone can get over 20 hours out of the EVO with REGULAR, NORMAL, everyday usage, show me - post up a screen shot

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cr1960:
Telstra must have changed it then as I have an A8183 Telstra branded and after I rooted and flashed a custom ROM all the Telstra junk disappeared.

Just so we can work out which screen it it, when your Desire starts up does it have a white screen with HTC on it, then it switches to the Telstra screen?

I'm pretty sure that's what my one used to do....

If yours does, the Telstra screen is the bootanimation screen which can be changed easily with instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=696235
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chief1978:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nosrulz:
I have a Telstra Desire and under the 'Phone Identity' tab it claims its an A8181. Would this just be because its rooted and using a custom ROM?

Either way when i rooted my Desire (using the method on TheUnlockr) it got rid of the Telstra screens on boot.

After the first root i then installed the official WWE Froyo RUU. Then rerooted using Unrevoked. Haven't seen any Telstra crap since the first root.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiL JRG:
The A8183 cannot connect to the Australian voda 3G network, so I don't think rooting it using that method has changed the phone identity, since I can connect to 3G.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nosrulz:
Thats not entirely correct. Telstra use the 3G bands 850mhz/2100mhz and other providers use 900mhz/2100mhz.

2100mhz is what is used in Urban areas whereas the 900/850 bands are used for 'rural' 3g connection. So if you are in a major city then you would be fine as you would be using 2100mhz anyway.

However if your Desire is a Telstra model (850/2100 compatible) and you were using another provider (Vodafone for example) and you were outside of Vodafones 2100mhz range, but inside their 900mhz range, you wouldnt be able to connect to 3g. But a non-Telstra Desire would.

Also I bought my phone in a Telstra store, so im 100% sure its a Telstra model. Im guessing when i installed the WWE RUU it changed the info to state its an A8181, though because its a hardware thing i doubt it would actually change anything.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j3r:
Yeah thats pretty much correct =)

Didn't realise that my 8183 desire changed to an 8181 after installing custom rom but the difference between 8181 and 8183 is the frequency band for hspa/hsdpa connections, 8181 is your standard 900mhz/2100mhz but telstra ones have been modded to run 850mhz/2100mhz.

Metro areas, theres both 850mhz and 2100mhz, but once u move out into more rural areas, theres only 850mhz remaining.

But at the end of the day, its a hardware mod, so even if our 8183 desires say they are 8181 in system info, they're still 8183s

I have made a Gold card using GoldCardTool.exe 0.0.5.0.

I put the Gold card into the phone and run the RUU above.

After I get the prompt to Update, a screen showns a dialog saying waiting for bootloader....

(I think the word was bootloader).

The phone restarts and sits on a HTC logo until the PC update software times out saying there is no phone connected.

The phone does not respond to any input at all, so I had to remove the battery and restart it. It then boots up fine as though nothing happened.

I have tried other suggestions that suggest setting USB debugging to on and/or HTC sync, but then the RUU update doesn't even get to the point to try the update as it can't detect the phone at all.

Could anyone please suggest if I am missing something?

Thanks.
