From your user name, I'd assume your in New York City in the US and have a T-Mobile version of the HD2. If that's the case click here to go to T-Mobile and download the latest update for your HD2, which should improve/cure your problem. There are step by step instructions on the web page, so you should be able to update the software without any problems.

If you are NOT from the US, then click here to go to HTC, select the country/region that your in, then click on "Support", "Choose your Product", then "Downloads" to get the latest update for your HD2.

I will get started on that now. You are right, I am in NYC. The phone is on T-Mobile but it is unlocked. Thanks....Will report back.

So I notice that an hour on wifi surfing the web took about 20% or more of thE battery...even playing game doesn't do that to the battery. Anyone experiencing similar thing? Anyone with 3g, is data looking the battery too?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xmRipper:
Just keeping wifi turned on is also drains the battery for me.

Check your screen luminosity.it is the biggest battery killer

I'm running the Moto234_eVo_Carbon_V0.3 build and I've noticed that even with the screen off and the phone idle my battery drains at a pretty good rate when compared to WinMo. Any fixes for this?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hengmy:
for me 3g/h draw much power than wifi, almost 1.5x-2x of the wifi surfing..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] whynot66:
Screen brightness is easily the biggest batter drain keep brightness as low as possible,

Data connection will hog more than WiFi if you are in an area of weak signal and your device is constantly searching for a signal, when your at home or work using WiFi just turn data off and switch to only 2g networks, set setcpu to screen off 245 245 :-)

Screen brightness definitely hits it hard, then wifi and bluetooth, keep em off whenever you are not using them and of course apps running in the background, grab a task killer, if its not needed, it shouldnt be running or else it will use power.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] azzzz:
Get "current widget" from the market to see how much powers are being used. While screen off, my phone only drain about 4~7 mA...

3g draws much more power than wifi. If wifi is available use it over 3g. But like others have said, the screen is by far the biggest battery hog.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jas0nw0ng:
I don't see how the screen is the biggest energy hog. When I leave my phone uncharged untouched over night and it it displays 7mah on current widget, I lose 40% battery in 7 hours.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] azzzz:
That's unusual...i lose less than 10% over night...even with bad reception in my room, that didn't kill my battery. Maybe you can try this to test it out. Fully charge before you go to sleep. The next morning, check your battery in setting to see what is using the majority of the battery drain during that period...this might help you find the reason...

If noting else is running, Cell standby will eat the majority of the battery power.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Mafioso:
For me, its Angry Birds...it the biggest battey killer ;)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] azzzz:
If you are talking about playing Angry Bird 24/7, then I understand you...but if you are serious, I haven't seen heavy battery drain while playing Angry Bird...but whose got time to check the battery stats while smashing them pigss...:D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] whynot66:
You need to reinstall new build and do a task29 :-) and format your SD your battery stats are all over :-) at 7mA you should see 1% per hour :-)

Sent from my hd2 desire
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Raven78uk:
Yes thats true, exactly the same in my HD2: 3-7mA = 1% an hour or less
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Joe Viterbo:
Wow, I installed Mdeejay_eVo_Sense_v_2.3Revolution to see if this build helped on battery life. I charged my phone over night and had a full battery at 11AM (according to the meter) but by 7:30PM, my phone was completely dead. During this time, I had two 5 minute phone conversations and used GPS for 9 minutes. Other than that, the screen was not active and I didn't have WiFi enabled. Is this typical? Doesn't make running Android very practical on the HD2. This is only the second build I've tried but it's not looking very promising.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] azzzz:
Something is wrong with your build. Try his newer build. They got a new kernel. If that were my habits, my battery would drop by only about 25%. You should install "current widget" from the market. It help you keep track of battery usage. On standby, most people and I got about 3~7mA. If you get a higher mA, that mean something is eating your battery.

Please give Mdj's New Build "Froyo Sense Revolution 1.6" that comes with his new kernel which is suppose to make battery last longer. Hope this helps.

i hope this enlightens you and yes wifi kills battery but it is not the biggest battery killer and wifi is more harmful to your battery life if it is not connected which means it is constantly searching for a network which sucks the life out of your battery.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hhhawasly:
I think the wifi modules on the new kernels (Hastarin > 8 & MDJ) are consuming too much power.

I usually got 5 ~ 8 mA in sleeping mode with my wifi turning on on the previous kernels, but now I got 8~60 mA and the battery status is showing that wifi is taking about 30% of the battery. Maybe this is because the 802.1n is enabled by default!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] whynot66:
Your WiFi should be set to turn off when screen off :-)

Sent from my hd2 desire
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hhhawasly:
I don't like the wifi to be disconnected when the screen is off since the sync and application update could take too much time, and I would like to get my emails and twitter notifications instantly even when the phone is on the standby.

Anyway, this is not our main point now ;)

Bluetooth

Not Wi-Fi or 3G for me... It's BT my biggets battery killer in

I have asked in some post but looks like nobody has my problem :confused:

Not 24/7...but if I play angry birds for like 1:30-2hrs in a day...the phone is dead before I sleep..i.e. uptime around ~ 12 Hours....if I don't it will easily last till next day afternoon

[HD2 General] sureshsg:
I have Bluetooth stereo headset not branded one. when i try to pair with other phones it prompts for passcode and able to key in "0000". Whereas when i try with my HD2, it doesnt prompt to key in passcode instead the phone generates passcode automatically.

Is there any tweak to make the phone to prompt to key in passcode manually. I tried to edit the registry and hardcode the passcode of headset to auto pair. It doesnt works.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WIDCOMM\BTConfig\AutoP air\IncludedExactNames\

Anyone can help?.....
[HD2 General] anhyeuemmaimai:
the phone will pair with it successfully if your device supports easy pair (most motorola's do for example) I have an anchient motorola hs850 that the HD2 pairs with no issues at all and it never asks me for a passcode unless I am pairing to my laptop or desktop.
[HD2 General] sureshsg:
It doesnt prompt for passcode anymore.. It generate passcode automatically to verify with headset...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] slicksyco00:
Great app on the iphone that pays you varying amounts of noney for taking pictures of products in many retail stores. Anything like this on android?
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
I know many of us want to know, so to all the Defender owners out there (I'm still waiting for mine from Amazon) can it be modded to work with the 2600mAh battery or one of the 3500mAh eBay batteries? The commuter is just a tad to small for it to work, I'm hoping the answer is yes for the Defender.

I've ordered a 2nd battery door that I'm planning on cutting out a hole in so the battery pokes out. I suppose you could roll without a battery door at all as well. The next step would be to cut out the inside silicone membrane of the Defender to make room for the battery. At least that's my plan anyway.
[EVO 4G Accessories] napsterdj:
Sounds exciting my man. Waiting to see the final product :)
[EVO 4G Accessories] dmc971989:
I too am wanting to know the answers to this question...

after looking at a defender case on a friend's Iphone I was thinking it may be possible... but you would prolly have to cut some of the Defender's hard casing up to make it all fit

we really just need someone who has one and an extended battery to "eyeball" it for us
[EVO 4G Accessories] dmc971989:
bump...

I really wish a Defender owner could chip in here
[EVO 4G Accessories] bmxrider4444:
I wouldn't see why not, but you'll be cutting through the hard plastic, not the silicone, the defender has the plastic on the inside and rubber on the out,so it will allow a bit of leeway depending on the elasticity of the silicone wrap. But without first seeing how far the 2600mAh battery sticks out, or knowing the thickness of the Otterbox's plastic, it's kind of a measure it and find out or just do it and find out.
[EVO 4G Accessories] yamaford:
Judging from pictures the 3500 battery looks to be about 2 times thick as stock. Which should put you about flush with the camera lens without the stock battery door. Everything looks like it should work hollowing out the inside of the defender exept they moved the kickstand up a little higher so you probably wont have enough meat there to support it.:(
[EVO 4G Accessories] uget2seconds:
i think the kickstand would be in the way... unless you want to cut that out completely and have no kick stand.

Im looking at my commuter and see the possibility of cutting out the battery back along with modifying the seidio battery cover to remove the rails... it should work better than on the defender.

dont know whether or not i want to commit to sticking a dremel tool in my case and doing some surgery.... i miss my extended battery though. :(
[EVO 4G Accessories] jeriel05:
I have a defender case that I was willing to cut out but after studying it I realize its not worth even trying. The kickstand area would have to be completely cut out, the protector for the camera lens and led would also have to be cut out because the bottom edge would have to be cut for the battery to go through. The only hope is one of the seidio extended cases, the rugged in particular.

[EVO 4G Accessories] evohog:
I currently am using the rugged but dont have the extended but my sister in law does so ill do some investigating and ill post back the results. I think it should be ok but itll lose the silicone camera lense cover. Theres no kickstand so thats good. Only prob i think is the plastic outer might be too narrow.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jeriel05:
Keep us posted, if it works I will buy one in a heartbeat. I can't stand having my EVO naked any longer but don't want to lose the extended battery either.

Sent From My "EVO"
[EVO 4G Accessories] badengrish:
For the amount of cutting that would need to be done, it probably would not be worth it. There is a lot of plastic to knife through. The silicone isn't terribly flexible either.

The case would be butchered due to fitment. Not worth spending $30 to essentially destroy a decent case.
[EVO 4G Accessories] mitchellvii:
I did it!

I have a big fat 3500 mah battery.

I also own a Defender. I put my EVO in the plastic Defender case WITHOUT the battery back on. I did not try to close the plastic case (it won't close), I just carefully stretched the rubber exterior over my ghetto rig and voila, IT FITS!

The answer is:

1) Leave the battery back off.

2) Don't try to clip the plastic case closed.

3) Carefully stretch the rubber exterior over.
[EVO 4G Accessories] cornell:
Take pics I wanna seeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!
[EVO 4G Accessories] mitchellvii:
No need, just looks like a slightly fat defender.

[EVO 4G Accessories] ClevelandWheeler:
So what about the 2600mAh one from Sprint. If I leave the back door off do you think the case would go together?
[EVO 4G Accessories] jeriel05:
I tried it and the hard case won't go together.

Sent From My "EVO"
[EVO 4G Accessories] mitchellvii:
The plastic case wont snap shut but if you stretch the rubber over it it works fine.

Hey Guys,

Hopefully someone can help me out since I can't seem to find answers anywhere to my problem. I got an unlock code from T-Mobile but when I put a foreign sim into the phone is says "invalid sim, 0 attempts remain". I got the phone on craigslist so I'm guessing whoever had it before me tried unlocking it with the wrong code too many times. I have the right code now, how do I reset the attempts? I can't believe that the phone is hard locked and there isn't anything I can do about it. It's pretty frustrating so any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azmpire:
really???? no one knows anything about this issue?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azmpire:
So people here know how to put different operating systems on phones but no one knows if it is possible to reset the sim unlock counter????? :confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
the phone is hard locked and (certainly in most cases) can now only be unlocked by using a hardware unlocker. (for most phones, you get three attempts via the keypad, and a further 10 via a hardware connection normally.)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azmpire:
thanks for the reply! what exactly does hardware unlocking mean? would i still need to use the code given to me by t-mobile?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
speak to a phone shop (or better yet speak to t mobile first)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dayv_73@yahoo.com:
have you tried to restore the phone to factory(not a hard reset). I would try going to Tmobiles website and try to update the rom...

http://dl.htc.com/ruudownload/t-mobileUS/DeviceDownloads.aspx?pid=leo

^is for US phones I just did mine today because the guy that put android on it removed the unlock screen and I was unable to unlock the phone. And no one on here was able to answer any questions for me so don't feel bad.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azmpire:
Got it unlocked last night! turns out the sim card i was using was locked. i tried a different one and it let me key in the code. thanks for all the help!

now that the phone is unlocked would doing a hard reset lock it back up?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
good stuff. No, flashing / hard resets will not ever lock the phone now.
