[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navy2010:
potential solutions?

Anyone have a workaround for this problem without using a 3rd party app? Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelcripes:
Anyone? I can't find any help on this issue, and it's not like it's a minor problem. Samsung or Google really need to deal with this.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
I have 2 Exchange accoumts on my phone. ActiveSync is not draining your battery. Buy whatever, keep looking for a fix for this nonexistent problem...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chui101:
Have you tried either accepting all certificates or turning off SSL? (The latter may not work at all depending on your company's Exchange server security policy)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmfisher:
Yes, there is a problem and it is with ActiveSync. Simply because your Exchange accounts don't experience the issue does not mean the issue does not exist. For me, the issue is not 100% consistent. Sometimes I don't have the issue for 3 or 4 days, sometimes I have it twice per day.

It is a bad bug. It drains the battery quickly, it causes a large amount of data to be download to the phone, and it causes new emails to not arrive. All three are critical issues. Numerous people are reporting it. The bug did not exist in JFD and definitely needs to be fixed.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navy2010:
I agree! Did you try reset the phone? I'm thinking about it. I won't try it if it didn't work for you.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelcripes:
I have reset my phone twice, it didn't work.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelcripes:
My company will not allow turning off SSL. However, I will try accepting all certificates. I'll know if it worked tomorrow morning because my phone is always stuck syncing in the morning when I wake up.

And to address N8ter's comment that this is a "nonexistent" problem...

How come my phone will get really hot, the download/upload indicators will be permanently on (for hours), the battery will drain at an obscene rate, and I won't receive emails, until I go to my application manager and manually stop "activesync" and then suddenly the download/upload indicators go off, my phone starts to cool down, and the batter stops rapidly draining? Quite a coincidence wouldn't you say?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KnottyBitz:
Battery drain / overheat

I have a similar problem, but I don't use Exchange. I think it's the 3G radio. Hear me out:

I work at home, and normally have WiFi turned on to take advantage of my DSL service. The other day, DSL was down, so I turned off the WiFi. The phone drained its battery in about 4 hours. Had to recharge twice. And the phone got warm to the touch.

A week later we had a power failure lasting half the day. I turned off WiFi. Again, the battery drained in 4 hours or so and got very warm by the time the battery-low warning sounded.

Turning WiFi off forces the phone to fall back to 3G (and if that's unavailable, to EDGE/2G) for data traffic. Maybe Exchange has a bug where it's doing too much syncing, but the problem will still happen with any kind of traffic/syncing. Furthermore, it could also be that just trying to find a 3G connection (where I sit,3G doesn't always work).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelcripes:
Accepting all certificates didn't do anything.

I don't think this is quite the same issue.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uninvitedguest:
Same issue, only had it after upgrading to the bionix fusion 1.1.

Hotmail hooked up by activesync is constantly using data, and it kills the battery. I blocked it with droidwall, and noticed that the 3g icon was still trying to send some info to my phone periodically, so I went into email and killed the push completely, and set it to manual updates only. That works, but it's balls.

Going to try out the newest froyo roms and see what happens with them.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grennis:
This is a known bug in email client which has since been fixed. If you go to email accounts and type the word debug you will be able to turn on debug logging to the sd card. Then you will see on the log file what is happening, which its that the email client does not properly handle when the exchange server had been configured with a nonstandard range of acceptable heartbeat intervals.

You can find this bug on google code but I forgot the numbers. Easiest way to fix this is to install one of the froyo ROMs honestly.

Otherwise you can do what I did and rebuild the aosp email app from source and fix the problem yourself. But you will need that logfile to know what heartbeat intervals to accept.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grennis:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jvz555:
I know the question,"What is the best rim available?" is used a lot and kind of annoying.

What i want to ask is what rom fits my needs . :)

What is need is:

- Good battery life

- Speedy without overclocking

- SprintTV app

- Stock or nice UI

- Working Camera/VideoCamera/GPS/WiFi

- At least 2.1 Would Love 2.2

I will appreciate all recommendations and thanks for taking the time to read my thread. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] add144:
Aside from the SprintTV app, I'm enjoying the AOSP Froyo rom. I'm running it with BrainFuncts kernel, Collin's battery tweak and A2SD she runs like butta!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jvz555:
How is your battery life?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
What's more annoying is that you posted this in the wrong section :/

Consider Nfinite's stock ROM. It has an overclocked but undervolted kernel, so you get all of the speed but none of the battery drain.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MrSpradlen:
Another thing to think about if you want to have a theme you need to make sure the rom you use has a theme u can use on it. Also, using autokiller would help your battery life some. If u want sprint Apps with froyo based rom u will gave to wait on better version of wildfire or pancake. I don't know if u can download the apps for them and run on cm6, don't really care for sprint apps so I haven't looked into it.

Froyo.... my hero's dirty little secret.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] add144:
I get great battery life. You can customize Collin's battery tweak until you find that good balance of performance and battery life
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MrSpradlen:
Great battery life using cm6 and running auto killer with this theme by Impaler

Froyo.... my hero's dirty little secret.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chiill:
SprintTV, SprintNav, SprintNFL and Voicemail apps work fine on CM6
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MrSpradlen:
Oh, never use em so never tried to get em.

Froyo.... my hero's dirty little secret.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Eric_1966_FXE:
I've got the same setup minus the A2SD (I use Froyo to move apps to the SD card). I also flashed a theme available in the aosp thread fro PMDColeslaw.

I've got Sprint VVM, Sprint Football, Sprint Navigation, and Sprint TV working on mine.

Battery life has been pretty good (much better than stock). I've been extremely lucky (knock on wood) compared to a lot of people on here, I really haven't had any problems to speak of. I've had a few FC's here and there but my gallery, camera, gps, mms, all work.

Not to mention that my phone is so much faster than when I first got it, thanks to AOSP (for the ROM) and Decad3nce (for his kernels).

Good luck jvz.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jvz555:
Thanks for the help guys. I dont have time today, but most likely tomorrow ill go with AOSP Froyo.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biggy_G:
Hello Everybody,

I am completely newbie in Smartphones. I just bought unlocked HTC HD2 brand new from Amazon.com I have several questions for professionals and hope to get answers. So here they are (sorry for being dummy):

1. What is ROM? i meet everywhere this word in this forum. Is it kinda Smartphone's OS?

2. Everybody is talking about Android, WinMo and etc. Is it possible to have in my HTC HD2 only 1 OS like Android? I mean, can i delete WinMo completely and install Android? how will change battery life in that case?

3. Is porting safe? For example if I wanna get rid of original WinMo 6.5 and port WinMo7 or Android to my phone, will that be safe?

4.Some people in youtube.com demonstrate Android running in HTC HD2, are they running 2 Operating systems on HTC HD2? If you run both WinMo and Android, how long will be battery life?

5. Is latest release of Android so smooth and neat like original WinMo 6.5 of HTC HD2?

6. Is there any FLV player for WinMo 6.5? Where can I get apps for WinMo 6.5?

7. In your opinion does WinMo 6.5 have a future?

Thank you gentlemen
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
First of all welcom on XDA

Secondly some of your questions the answer can be found in the tricky threads, and some of your questions, the answer are personally related.

Thirdly let's go start.

It's your Os version.

No, Your primary OS will be WM, if you will have only Android you have unfortunately buy a wrong device.

Safe is a big word sir, this depends on your talent, the Rom version you will install, radio, Android build ...

Everything you will changed here is on your own risk. the chance of success is depending if you read/follow the instructions.

Yes, like mention before running Android without WM isn't possible right now.

Battery life is very variable, depending on your basic Rom, your Radio version, the Android build, your used.....

Some people mention to have 5H of battery some mention to have more.

No sir, fore the moment there are some little bugs/issue on some versions. you need to know it isn't build fore this device! but a solution is close!

I don't know what you mean with "FLV player" but you can get apps from Windows Marketplace (It's not so big as Android ore Apple :()

Let's go analyze this.

First of all Windows Mobile will have a long life, some professional users need WM.

Secondly eh WP7 isn't a good professional alternative, to limited.

Thirdly 6.5 ?? hmm let say 6.5.5 will take the future.

If you go take a look onto the Rom Build Threads the majority of builders/users are WM 6.5.X users!

You're welcome and I hope my replay give you some answer!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biggy_G:
Dear kurt-willems,

Thank you so much sir. The answers are more than precise.

Regarding FLV player,

I have downloaded Video Clips from Youtube in FLV format. (flash video format)

I wanted to play them but was not successfull to do it on my HTC HD2. It has Windows Media player which is not really good. I tried TCMP, nothing. Any alternative?

Marketplace is not free, that is sad.

I would be delighted to get advice and info from professionals like you Sir,

I don't wanna get unuseful information from beginners and don't wanna ruin my OS

Thanks,

Waiting for your reply
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biggy_G:
Yeah, also some questions:

What is Radio version and Radio itself?

Here on forum everybody's talking about some CHT 2.0, is it program or what?

It is unfair of HTC to leave its flagship model without future. Maybe we can all get together and write a letter saying to HTC to provide us with choices to change our OS to Android?

Thanks everybody
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
You can tray to used Core player v1.3.6, maybe this can do what you are looking fore.

Its the one I used.

About Marketplace, install Marketplace RegionSwitch it allow you to have access to more stuff Free/payment.

EDIT:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
The Radio is the flagship of your connections, (WiFi, Bluetooth, Phone connection) giving advice fore this is quite complicated because it's related to Rom version and/ore area.

In general the older 2.07 ore the new one 2.15 are good working versions.

CHT is a small/big application who permit you to customize your home screen.

Take a look on the CHT 1.8.5 thread; here is the link.

I know this is the link on the older version, the new version CHT 2.0 is a beta version, not stable at 100% and much more possibility of customize. but fore a new user like you it is best to start with 1.8.5 ons you get it and the version of CHT 2.0 is finish you can use this one.

It's the same thing in live first we learn to crawl, then steps and then walk :D

Ow, I have make a thread in the past with easy; but useful questions new users have, you can take a look on it maybe this can helps you a lot father.

I wanted ask, I have WinMo 6.5 in my HD2, so does that OS support apps from previous Windows Mobile operating systems, like WinMo 6.1 and etc.? I am very disturbed about situation around HD2 and future of WinMo 6.5. I am praying god to have update to WP7)))

Maybe we need to unify and write a letter to HTC so it must support their products. I payed 500 dollars for my HD2. What do you think?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
Fore your apps; be careful not every application who was build fore a WM6.1 will be compatible on a WM6.5 ore 6.5.x important is to read the information added fore this.

unfortunately I think I have bad news fore you; you will probably remember you when there where some leek about WP7! and at the same time there were simulate information about the HTC HD2 on announce to make a update the other non.

Now the official announcement was there will be no update to WP7 fore the HTC HD2 announce by HTC and Windows. :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biggy_G:
It is sad to hear about WP7. Some guy named Cotulla showed video that he was able to run WP7 on HD2. What they mean by that? are they still running both WM6.5 and WM7?

If you run 2 OS on HD2, isn't it gonna drain your battery in couple hours? Or was Cotulla able to install WP7 to cleaned disk space, I mean only 1 OS? what do you think?

Hi Kurt,

I live in Chicago currently. I have called The Tech Shop (repair center). Guys from there told me that they can port Android to HD2 completely. I asked whether my windows mobile can be completely removed and replaced with Android. they told me that they will do it for sure. Do you think that it worths to change OS to ANDROID?

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
The only person who can give you the correct reply on this question are you! It depends of your need/wishes.

Some peoples have enough with Android, some peoples don't will it, ....

Personally I'm not a big fan of Android, certainly not ass main OS. having a duel boot WM /Android yeah way not!?

But this is my opinion, I alway's have had WM, and to be honest 2 years ago I worked in a telecom sector, I advices people with there need in the Phone sector so. Important rule is tho know with are the needs of people, ons you know that you can go to WM, RIM, Android, OS.

I have test all of them (need to be professional) Fore my uses is WM and RIM the best, but Android brings a PDA shorter to peoples because it is easy!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biggy_G:
To be honest, I don't like either Android or iOS, I hate them although haven't experienced them so thoroughly. I believe in Microsoft. All features are good for me as of WM. The only thing I am bothered with is some basic applications. I only lack something like K-Lite Codec pack for WM 6.5. WM 6.5 and HTC sense are better than any OS IMHO.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biggy_G:
Anyone knows how many Apps available for WinMo 6.5 at this moment?

Does HTC HD2 have GPS and does it depend on internet or it connects to satellite directly?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurt-willems:
How much Apps there are available fore WM?? I don't know.

But take a look on the MarketPlace but use MarketPlace RegionSwitch (it allows you to have access to much more (PS take a look on the US market))

Yes, the HD2 have a standalone GPS receiver. but if you don't will make internet access fore loading maps, make yous of progs who have the maps on your SD!

I've been using cm6 for about a week and it's a great rom. I would be happier with better battery life, but oh well. It still lasts me all day and then some.

It's a real snappy rom too. I haven't noticed any lag at all since I've installed it. I'm also using one of King's kernels as well.

I've tested some others over the course of the week, and right away I noticed sluggishness in those other roms. I always end up flashing back to CM6 within an hour.
[EVO 4G General] Lokifish:
CM6 for the win

CM6 with some tweaks (see below) screams and gets pretty good battery life to boot with the right kernel. Also make sure that you have no corrupt/unsupported media files on your card as this causes "Media Server" service to constantly attempt to index/access the offending file.

My tweaks so far:

Market only (all other "gapps" not installed)

Standalone calander app that doesn't sync to anything (using AnCal at the moment)

Lightweight launcher (using Zeam at the moment)

2D gallery (3D gallery removed)

No widgets

Plain/small single color wallpaper
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
CM6 + Snap 7.6 & Turbo = "fastest" ROM, CM6 + Snap 7.5 = longest lasting ROM.
