I was looking for something along the same lines for my girlfriends cappy... and ran into AlarmDroid. Seems to do the job well enough though I haven't dug into the full features available... and it's free :cool:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] evoic:
I had no idea that us Captivate owners were such a sleepy lot.

It must be from countless hours spent awake late at night flashing new ROM's and kernels. Damn you XDA!

On a more serious note, I almost lost my job today because the piece of crap stock alarm failed me once again, which is how I ended up in this thread.

I'll be using these alarm clocks that have been suggested and hopefully one does the trick for me as well.

Thanks for the referrals.

I have about 10 HTC Hero's with stock HTC 2.1 Rom. I just updated one of them with the Cyanogen mod 6.1 and added the google app and a few apps i would like my team to have. I would like to know is it possible for me to create a backup using Clockwork Rom Manager and deploy that to my other phones? The stock HTC rom get very slow and is starting to freeze.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cordell12:
Wont work, you can do each phone one by one though :)

I tried using a backup from my wifes hero to me hero and it did boot but the good stuff like updating PRL did not work, data, didnt even bother to test the phone before I uninstalled her backup from my phone.

Hulu may be blocking mobile devices, but ESPN3 certainly isn't.

On your home PC, go to espn3.com. Create an ESPN account, and sync it with your PC for "remote access".

Then, on your android 2.2 enable Vibrant, go to espn3.com and watch streaming flash video of live basketball, football, soccer, rugby, etc...

Oh, and if you can't find the game you want there, don't forget to go to ATDHE.net to stream live TV and sports to your Flash-enabled Vibrant.

Have fun!

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] shadowofdarkness:
Has anyone else had this problem. For the entire time I have had my phone it has done this occasionally. Where when a incoming call comes in, the second I slide to answer it just reboots the phone.

A problem is that the call doesn't end up in the call log if it is not a number I know it makes it impossible to call back.

I have no idea if it does it when I totally miss the call and don't attempt to answer which is worse since I will have no indication of a missed call since I have trained people not to leave voice mails since I hate checking them. (and I don't, they leave after they get deleted as old by my carrier)

I have had this problem on official 2.1-update1, G.O.T. 2.2.1 leak and the Cyanogen port. So it seems pretty widespread.
[Droid Pro General] swerve12:
Anyone having battery problems? My wife and I have pros and can hardley get half a day out of it... does this phone need a task killer? I havent used a task killer since my hero. But maybe this one needs one. any ideas? my fascinate holds a charge more than this and it does 10 times the amount in the backround and the batterys arent that different. Thanks
[Droid Pro General] bw10666:
Pretty disappointed with the battery life too. Barely make it to the afternoon. I just constantly plug the phone in. Considering buying the extended batt if it wasn't 50 bucks.

I also switched from the fascinate.
[Droid Pro General] swerve12:
who has the extendted battery
[Droid Pro General] jayhammy:
My battery life is OK, but I'm constantly fiddling with the phone: checking facebook, answering work emails, browsing the web and the Market, etc.

However, my partner's phone made it through a 16-hour day with 40% still left of battery. Granted, it was on standby for 6 hours at work, but the rest of the time was constant facebook, etc.
[Droid Pro General] jhalsey205:
There are a number of "Power Management" tweaks that can be performed that will dramatically improve battery life. Things i have done include:

device rooted via z4root (this has no direct impact on battery performance but necessary for things that do...)

Screebl Pro

SetCPU (throttle down to 300 when screen off)

AutoKiller Memory Optimizer

Uninstalled or frozen a bunch of stuff i don't use via Titanium Backup (there is thread in this forum that discusses what can be uninstalled/frozen)

Changed phone radio from global to cdma

I have also added an extended battery. I can easily go 12+ hours with heavy data/email and voice use.
[Droid Pro General] jayhammy:
these are all great ideas. however, most of the reviews are bad on the Screebl Pro and all of its other versions.
[Droid Pro General] abw1987:
I just received mine yesterday. Gave it a full charge last night. Now, at not even 11am, it's down to 60%. That's after three hours of light usage. Hopefully this is just a battery calibration issue or something since this is the first time it's been fully charged...

Edit: 10%. That's 90% depletion in just five and a half hours. We'll see if it's lying or not.

Edit: The Droid Pro was pronounced dead at 1:48pm, exactly 6 hours of very light usage after its first full charge. We'll see what happens on its second cycle.
[Droid Pro General] Xdadevhk:
Hi All

I have to say my battery is great. Can make it the entire day even with heavy usage.

However, you need to be really careful with the background apps you are running.

In my case

1) Bluetooth off

2) Wireless Off

3) Set CPU running - scaled to 300 when screen off and scaled to 300-600 when battery hits 50%

4) Running IMO messenger at boot (I tried Ebuddy and it sucked down the battery big time) IMO does not.

5) Cleared most of the default widgets and only added the few that I really use.

6) Running Go Launcher instead of default launcher (not sure if this helps battery or not)

7) Running CDMA mode only when I am in the U.S. (turned off global setting)

8) I get LOTS of emails daily (over 150) so the phone is constantly pulling in.

Hope this emails helps others.
[Droid Pro General] bigdinosaur:
When I first got my Pro a few weeks ago I was ready to send it back due to poor battery life. Decided to give it a little more time, and the stock battery was netting me at least 12 hours of moderate to heavy usage. Ordered the extended battery and had the same issue of it draining the battery insanely fast. Again, I gave it a few more days and now I'm finding myself charging the phone maybe once every two days. All in all, just give it some time -- it'll surely get better, just hang in there!
[Droid Pro General] abw1987:
Day two: Seven hours in, and my phone is down to 20%. Better than yesterday (dead in 6 hours), but then again I used it much less today, and I removed all but 1 widget from my desktop.

Edit: Dead at 4:20. 7.5hrs today. This is garbage.
[Droid Pro General] AverageCanadian:
Try and hold out for a week. My Dream and Milestone took about a week before they were useful. If its not useful after that then you might have to trade it in or get a different type of phone.

Android is not known for its great battery management but you should be able to make at least a typical 8 hour work day imo.
[Droid Pro General] bwhite757:
I've stated in many threads in many forums now, the battery life with the "Out of the box" setup is just horrible. No way around it, it just sucks. The stock battery is the same one that came with the original Droid last year. The Droid 1 is a 600 Mhz stock phone. Our Pro is a 1 GHz beast. The stock battery in our phone is just inadequate.

I wouldn't be surprised to see an update in the near future to resolve some of the issues we are seeing though. It's obviously the biggest complaint with the phone. However if you are willing to root you can get the phone to somewhat reasonable battery life.

I've really only done a few things but am seeing a vast improvement. Stock settings with my usage gives me about 4 hours then I'm dead in the water. Now I get about 7 hours and I'm literally doing something on my phone all the time so I'm completely pleased with that.

My main things:

Root and remove the bloat. Play with the phone a couple of days, find out what apps you'll never use then get rid of them.

Get a different launcher, either Launder Pro or ADW.

Buy SetCPU and set profiles for:

Screen off = 300 MHz

Battery < 70% = 800 MHz

Battery < 50% = 600 MHZ

Change wireless mode from Global

That's it for me. If I used my phone like a normal productive Human I could get a full day easy, but again its literally always in my hands, so 7 hours I am very pleased with. That's about as long as my old Curve got me. After that I just slap my spare battery I always have in my back pocket in and I'm good to go with only 2 minutes downtime, as opposed to the 15 minutes down with any Blackberry battery swap.

That's my 2 cents, take it for what its worth. My biggest battery gains came from SetCPU, and to be honest I really can't tell a difference in performance when it throttles me down.
[Droid Pro General] jayhammy:
Which extended battery? Do you need a new battery cover?

[Droid Pro General] @Class:
The battery life on this device is very low. I ordered my extended battery here on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150532539861

I like that is has an original backing and there is no noticeable bulge.
[Droid Pro General] CojonesDeToro:
Verizon is selling extended battery for $50+tax with free overnight shipping.
[Droid Pro General] @Class:
I got lucky. The seller has since revised his listing to NOT ship outside the united states. Its a shame for all those who've purchased their phone for use outside of the usa.
[Droid Pro General] bwhite757:
Well I have to contradict my last post. I burned through 2 1/2 standard batteries Sunday during a 16 hour day at work. I decided to break down and purchase the extended battery.

I bought it yesterday and threw it in my phone last night before I put it on the charger for the evening. Today I'm very surprised to see I'm still sitting at 40% with the phone being off the charger since 8am this morning (10:46pm now.) So 12.75 hours on just the extended battery, I'm thrilled. I would almost say this battery would net me more time than 2 fully charged standard batteries.

I bought the Shell/Holster combo at VZW when I bought the phone. I could not get the shell to fit over the extended battery back without modification (as I've read elsewhere). However, I threw the shell in my oven for about 10 minutes at 200, and the plastic was pliable enough to wrap the phone. It then cooled down and now fits great. A little snug, but it functions perfectly (actually fits better in the holster IMO). I would highly recommend the extended battery. I can see why everyone is saying great things about it now..

The salesman at the VZW store got me 25% off for something (Forgot exactly why I got the discount) and they had one in stock. So I would definitely encourage those to go to the store 1st before buying online. (The salesman, who was a manager, said the only reason they had them in stock was because their store has sold so many of the Pro's).
[Droid Pro General] swerve12:
the has gotten better since we got em but i thing i found which seems kind of weird is im getting better battery life with my screen brightness all the up and my battery manager set to performance:rolleyes:
[Droid Pro General] @Class:
I just got my extended battery in the mail yesterday. I am noticing a huge improvement in battery life with the droid pro. The annoying thing is the back for some reason does not "snap" into place properly. Not too sure why, but putting a piece of folded paper underneath the cover seems to have done the trick.

To anyone seeking to further extend their battery life I recommend getting the extended battery from verizon. If that is still not enough you can buy the Energizer USB rechargeable battery and go from there...
[Droid Pro General] joeld82:
Im talking to the guy who made the DX/D2 overclock app. He's going to try and make one for the pro. We'll be able to undervolt and stay at 1ghz then. That helped alot with battery life on my D2.
[Droid Pro General] rllong1:
What kind of out of box set up did you guys do Should I let the phone die then charge it up all the way? Should I let it go to about 15 percent then charge it? Do I need to have it off and fully charge it?. I have heard so many conflicting things. I just want to get the best battery life I can.
[Droid Pro General] abw1987:
I am by no means an expert (and please feel free to correct me), but my understanding is that all that battery conditioning nonsense really only applies to the old Nickel Cadmium batteries, not the new Lithium Ion batteries. I thought the only reason to ever let your battery drain all the way down is to recalibrate the level-of-charge sensor. I could be wrong though.
[Droid Pro General] rllong1:
I've heard this before so I believe that may be correct (but I also have no clue really). I actually just plugged it in when I got it.
[Droid Pro General] damnyoud:

The 1Ghz rumor was fabricated by LG so they dont sandbag sales of their Optimus line. Ive booted the gingerbread build on my EVO and its still very choppy on that. I also have an overclocked slide that very often gives better benchmark scores than my evo because of its smaller screen. That being said, I have no doubt that 2.3 will run very nicely on the slide. In fact the sense rom running on my slide now is MUCH smoother than the Sense HD rom on my EVO. Still, the slide probably wont see 2.3 for months so I wouldnt sweat it

Also, did you even put the gingerbread latinIME keyboard in there? If not then your thread is just about as full as troll as that guy on the Vibrant forums who posted that Galaxy tab ROM, claimed it worked, and bricked tons of people's phones doing so, because this is just a theme port, not gingerbread for the Slide.

[Nexus One General] SWBgHz:
I have had my Nexus One for nearly a year and just haven't gotten the momentum to do custom ROMs (though, now that I got a Galaxy Tab I will move on some custom ROMs for it, I believe). Anyways, since I got the Tab I was thinking I would dump the smartphone for a dumbphone altogether (nice not having smartphone bill anymore) since the Tab spoils you with is large beautiful screen. So I want to get this Nexus One back to stock for selling it, all I have done is root it and remove some a couple included apps that annoyed me (twitter and facebook I think).

The problem is I am having trouble applying OTA updates - it starts then stops with the android dude and the ! then reboots to where it was. This continues even after a wipe (which I though would clear it back). And now GB is out so how do I get this back so it can update again?
