[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Krazy-Killa:
Did some more testing, and found that without it plugged into power it does only respond to the power button, but again it's only about 15-20% of the time, and even those times seem iffy as it just seems like the phone's just slow to respond.

Phone is also somewhat warm as well even when "off", and I do have the phone overclocked to 450MHz, kernel is set to 425 (running a test on speed/stability atm)

At 425MHz it's still reasonably warm, and at 450 the temperature jumps alot.

Anyone else have an issue of the tap sounds when tapping on the screen sometimes not playing? Granted phone quality is great, and GPS is working well, though Camera is broken on my end, even though it was working before. O.o
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] n2rjt:
It sounds like there is a real issue. Some application is running continuously for you, preventing the CPU from going to sleep. I have had that before. Try removing widgets from the main screen. For me, the problem was an app that showed a flip-clock and the weather, and looked just like HTC Sense. I don't remember its name but it used to be popular.

The newest 2.6.32 kernel seems to sleep relatively well for me. Sometimes it wakes on any key, and sometimes it wakes up to a totally white screen. Other times it just plain refuses to wake up. Usually I can coax it back to sanity (from white screen or from sleep) by Fn-Left keyboard softkey, then Fn-Right keyboard softkey.

Your phone should get approx 10 or so hours of life from a charged battery. Less than you get with WinMo, but lots more than you seem to be seeing.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] albertorodast2007:
by chanse wasnt weather widget? had a really bad slowdown over scoots CM because of that widget, was constantly trying to update the weather....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] n2rjt:
Yes that's the one. it needs to be removed, and can be replaced by Fancy Widget.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Krazy-Killa:
Ok, I'll give it a whirl, and remove some of the widgets I have running, and see if it does help out. Right now though I'm re-installing /system as I tried messing around with the density as 110 seems to work real well with where things are placed on the home screen (no widgets are overlapping each other), but Market won't work, and the Android Keyboard keeps crashing (on-screen).

But anyways, phone's booting back up, so I'll test out the battery life here again, as I got about 95% charge right now, so should serve as a good test for battery life, and CPU Sleepage.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] cycloid:
Having a similar issue, seems to behave ok (screen lock comes on when I press power button) but power usage on standby is similar to original poster's. About 8 hours standby. Went to bed last night and it said 66% charged (1300mAH battery) and it didn't last the night. Takes a looooong time to charge to full though so I doubt it's lying about fully charging the battery, suggesting it's using it up at a fast rate.

How do I check background tasks?

Edit: This is with WiFi, GPS and Sync OFF by the way. On the other hand I live in a low signal area (typically 1-2 bars) could it be straining to get a better signal? Used to have an old nokia that used to run itself flat in no time when there was a low/missing signal!

Edit 2 : Figured it out, turns out the ebay app has a service and a process running - even with notifications turned off! Have killed these and see if anything improves
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] aceoyame:
That could very well be part of the problem, although it shouldn't kill it from 66% with just the radio. How much capacity does it calibrate itself to?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Krazy-Killa:
Phone Radio really shouldn't use more power with low signal, in fact it really shouldn't affect power output at all (well except the fact that it's on). I have a 1350mAH battery, but it's reading at 2470 adjusted, so I re-flashed a new kernel with the new battery changes, now it's reading 2437units adjusted, which is over 1500mAH for the battery which is not what I own. O.o But on the bright side, my battery capabilities are improving, and the battery meter is starting to read

alittle

more accurately. :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] albertorodast2007:
yes, i boutght seidio 1600 mAh, and the kernel ended up adjusting it to 3260 units... (about 2000 mAh) maybe the 1.6 factor isnt right just as n2rjt said, maybe its closer to the 2.0
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] cycloid:
Seems like ebay may have been the culprit. Killed the ebay process and application in the background and only used about 10% over night (as opposed to over 60% the night before). I'll have to leave it overnight with ebay running again for a proper scientific test next
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Krazy-Killa:
Yah, I'm starting to run into issues with certain apps keeping the phone awake and not letting it sleep. I kill some of the apps and it actually helps out the battery some.

I installed the original launcher from one of the other froyo builds, but came across with an FC with acore, so now back with ADW.Launcher or LauncherPro.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
When you install a app, take a look at its requirements, like "PREVENT FROM SLEEP". You might have a app doing just that..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Krazy-Killa:
Yep, most of the apps I download have that. O.o But in sad news, I'm actually going back to WMO 6.5 as I can't seem to keep Android stable on my kaiser.. I've reinstall the same build twice (which I know is not corrupted, as it was working fine 2 days ago), and Market is always corrupted...... So, for now, until I have a secondary phone I can revert too, I'll be going back to WMO for the time being. :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
Umh... sad...

We'll wait for you! Bye bye :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Krazy-Killa:
LOL! Not like I'm leaving, I'll be popping on here every so often, and still doesn't mean I'll use Haret to load up Android to test out new builds that come out, and new kernels that are released in the future. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] daedric:
Man... that's a sin! You can't do that! You'll be off from the Brotherhood!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Krazy-Killa:
ROFL, well just flashed WMO, but can't seem to get IT to connect to Marketplace... -_- Gah, might as well go back to Android, as EVERYTHING works, just corruption occurs every couple of days, lmao.

Hm.... Decisions:

Android: Data Corruption, non-reliable storage.

Yah, I'd love to go back to Android hands down. :P
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] aceoyame:

I love the phone and have learned to survive without the trackball, but it would still be nice to have. For example, correcting text entries when keyboard and landscape mode isn't on option (only 1 free hand) was much easier with that ball. The enhancement they've made in 2.2 is a big help though.

Yep... That's just a bootanimation.zip file that you can replace in the /system/media

Just happened to look into that two days ago and changed mine, then Rothnic showed up the 'other' screen. Funny how things work together that way.

You can ADB and push the file but all I did was find another bootanimation.zip use root explorer to copy in the /system/media (of course I backed up the old one first) then rebooted.

Here is the animation I am using now, little Android guy with a spinning circle that I 'borrowed' from Eugenes Macnut13 release.

Hi! I'm one of K-9's developers. Multitouch zoom in K-9 didn't behave correctly until embarrassingly recently.

I can't yet post links to xda-dev, but

should behave for you on your NC. (The NC is now my test device for a Tablet mode for K-9)

Hi Obra,

Can you pls let me know that the "correct behavior" is supposed to be. I am running the latest 3.319 release. I have enabled the pinch-zoom option from the settings->interactions menu of K-9.

First I want to thanks xda and the great folks that made this tablet really useful and fun.

I am wondering if anyone else having the problem where when you press the power button to put the device to sleep, but the device does not quite go to sleep. I notice that if I press the capacitive buttons within 2 minutes of pressing the power button, the device would wake up again. I have tnt lite 2.2 installed. Any fix for that?
[G Tablet General] harpua1980:
You can hold the power button for a couple seconds then release...you should see a menu with a sleep option
[G Tablet General] Fencesitter:
Yeah, I see the problem. And even telling it to sleep with the power button doesn't completely solve it- tapping on the home button for a while wakes up the screen.

But, as some people say, it's not a bug- at least if your power button dies, you have an alternate way of turning on the thing :)

My problem is with a timeout of 2 minutes, if I let it time out, the thing shuts down, not sleeps.
