Nothing running in background. anyway I'll take it back in monday and ask them for a replacement if not, I'll have to wait a week or two to get it back from repair service... trought I hope to get it back till new year.
[Omnia 7 General] Bya:
Maybe consider just buying a new battery?
[Omnia 7 General] mchabr:
you should definitely ask for a new battery first, before sending it to service. In the end all is made in China... :-) P.s. My bat. lasts the same as descibed by the others. 1-1,5 day...
[Omnia 7 General] uristic:
giving 390€ with 24 months of contract, using the device for one week and you really think I'm as dumb to buy a new battery as I have 1 year warranty on battery and other accesories ? ... Really ?
[Omnia 7 General] uristic:
Thanks, I'll see what it can be done..
[Omnia 7 General] PhilAd:
my omnia7 leasts longer than my galaxys with data and email sync .. so no problem
[Omnia 7 General] uristic:
Ok I was at my carrier and they said that the phone needs to be send on service (no replacement options) so I'll probobly send it after new year.

But I notice that when I'm at home (I live about 7-8km out of the city) my battery last muuuuuch longer, actually enugh for what I expect - 2h of music, about 2h web and of market browsing (connected to home wifi + mobile data enabled connected on 3g+ full signal) and when I'm in school (city centre) it drys my batery much faster. Today after 3h with 20min of music and 5 min of web browsing it fell on less than 50% and few hours later on -20% and then it turned off. (same if connected to school wifi or just 3g+ also with full signal)... I really don't get it o.O.

And many of my school mates have the same carrier but don't have any of this problem... might it be somekind of carrier transmitor selectnig bug with windows phone 7 or what ?
[Omnia 7 General] ~Johnny:
Things to note - browsing with WiFi requires less power than browsing over 3G - 3G browsing will suck out your battery a lot faster. (The phone will not use your mobile data connection if you're over WiFi) Also, depending on the lighting conditions, your screen auto brightness will probably also have your screen on a lower brightness setting in your house.

That, and I don't really recommened using your phone as your primary Music/Video palyer if you're serious about battery life - that does a good job of sucking your battery too, and you'll ntoice most of the people getting good battery life aren't really using it as their primary media player.
[Omnia 7 General] uristic:
actually I tested it with using at home with same settings (brightnes to low, wifi/3g off/on) and I can see that when I'm in the city centre it sucks the battery in only few hours with data connection on and not connected to wifi so I assume that my operator wich recently updated it's network did something wrong as my school mates have noticed this too but none of them isn't using a smartphone on this network so it isn't so obvius. I temporary solved the problem with turning off data connection when I'm in the centre and turning it on only when I need it and when I'm out of the centre.
[Omnia 7 General] daleski75:
I also noticed my battery life sucked when I had the official twitter application installed on it.

Today I left it charging for 8 hours on my laptop and the battery meter barely moved, I removed Twitter and hey presto it started to charge properly.

Back to Beezz and now all is ok
[Omnia 7 General] Spybreak:
Apps don't run in the background so it is pretty much impossible for twitter to be draining your battery if it is not open.
[Omnia 7 General] daleski75:
Maybe it was just a coincidence but as soon as I removed this app my battery started to charge.

Unless it was a one off issue with charging over usb.
[Omnia 7 General] PhilAd:
my batterylife is the best ive ever had in a smartphone ... i need a custom rom on my galaxy s with android to get close to the batterylife of my omnia 7 ... i am using hsdpa with the same provider on both phones permantly and im syncing emails with them ... even with gaming (sims 3 or nfs underground) the windows phone least longer.
[Omnia 7 General] GuestK00306:
Not at all. There could me a memory leak in the .NET/silverlight runtime - even Microsoft developers make mistakes :)

Tbh, I have the Twitter app installed also and my battery life is as good as can be expected with a modern smartphone: 1.5 days heavy use (Music, Twitter, Facebook, web browsing & constant SMS/e-mail)
[Omnia 7 General] uristic:
may I ask somebody for a favor ? Under the diagnosis (call ##634#) type *#2*# (battery diagnosis) and please check what does it say on the third screen at the last line "Result". For me it's "Pass/Fail". Might this "fail" mean it's something wrong with the battery ?

PS. after dialing ##634# a shortcut for diagnosis will show up in the apps menu... just delete it if you don't need it.

And to get to the third screen use the big arrow on the top =)
[Omnia 7 General] CreepinJesus:
Mine also says "Result: Pass/Fail" so... It's a bit confusing :confused:
[Omnia 7 General] VonCrisp:
Can you guys tell me what you are getting for BatteryFullTime .. or something along those lines. I think I have just found out why the battery life was being drained on my Omnia 7!!!!!
[Omnia 7 General] uristic:
it says BatteraLifeTime:17000, and BatteryFullLifeTime: 24285.

Why ?
[Omnia 7 General] yovaman:
My battery life is not great, I have to charge my omnia 7 at least once a day sometimes 2.

Making the battery test it also says pass/fail
[Omnia 7 General] VonCrisp:
Thank you! I wanted to know if I had some kind of strange degradation since my phone only lasted me 6 hours!!!!!!!! Omnia 7.

I have found a sort of solution here and managed to get my phone to keep running with use for around 24 hours. (location on, surfing and one´game for around 30 mins, WLAN off cant use it because home settings require a different IP, Bluetooth... as if it has any use on this phone)

There is a reported issue with the APN settings that wp7 uses! in short: Too many connections are made in the background resulting to the battery draining faster.

Now this issue can be resolved somehow but it requires a little tinkering. I have made a post with the stuff I did and read to resolve my issue.

I know it's an acronym for Android Open Source Project, but what does it actually mean?

For example in the development section, theres a ROM thread with the title "AOSP ish JK2"

How is this different from non AOSP ROMs?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zharptitza:
It means there are no themes or changes from the default. Most companies put different launchers or apps on there. AOSP is the default build that is pure and unchanged from what Google puts out.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] christeeezy:
Makes perfect sense. Thanks!

Happy XMAS :

Go and get your WM7 or Android goldcard for free :

(The goldcard generator works currently for all WM7 HTC phones, including Mozart, Trophy, Gold and Schubert)

Link to the goldcard generator

In order to use the WM7 goldcard, just use an OTG USB Cable with power connector (Y-Cable, see below)

and connect a sdcard reader to it.

Steps to do :

1. Use any FAT32 formatted sdcard and a wm5 or android device to generate the goldcard (Yet we do not know how to read the cid

using WM7)

2. Store the needed firmware file ruu_shipped.nbh to the sdcard (goldcard) with the right filename :

MOZAIMG.nbh for Mozart

SPARIMG.nbh for Trophy

SCHUIMG.nbh for Schubert

GOLDIMG.nbh for Gold

MONDIMG.nbh for Mondrian

3. Insert the sdcard into an sdcard reader (SDcard slot, not microsd-slot for multi readers), connect the y-cable with usb power and

then to the mobile.

4. Press camera+volume down+power on to enter the bootloader in host mode, firmware update will start then.

For OTG cable, you can buy an usb-to-mini-usb otg cable and a power usb adapter,

OR you can build it by yourself, see attachment.

WBR,

Is there a way to do it replacing directly the card in the slot of the device?

I create a goldcard using goldcard tool, the device see the card but when I update, I have "invalid vender ID". I have a HTC Trophy SFR branded.

Can you help me please?

Thank you in advance

Jean-Philippe
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] viperbjk:
Yes, internal sdcard should also be fine. However, the goldcard generator is only for htc mozart right now. I'll have a look if HTC Trophy can be also added.
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Jeanphi12:
That will be great!

Thank you
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] htakahasyd5:
Would you please tell me the link for the goldcard tool?
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] HkDng:
Sorry for the stupid question: How can I see my CID?

Thanks.
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Jeanphi12:

It also helps to find CID!
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] idonxda:
Hi Jean, Please can you let me know how to get know CID for mozart on Orange UK. I downloaded the tool and selected both mmco, mmc1 options but always get Failed to get CID message.?
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Jeanphi12:
Goldcard tool find the CID only when using a linked device. I used my HTC Desire to find it. It did not work when I try with the SDHC in the PC.
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] idonxda:
Thank you, I might be stupidly confused, When I click the link for ordering the only thing I am missing CID, whats the CID is how do I get all basic question that noobie ask. Any chance to share the answers?

Thanks
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] ceesheim:
is this also working for a hd7

edit :I need to read more :( , only for Mozart)

I hope you get it working for the other phones to :)

LOL , Ithink you have a Mozart :)
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] ceesheim:
I just tested this on a hd7 but it isn't seeing the sd card (I used the card for flashing on wm6.*) I tried all the connections on a Y-cable (the same as what you posted) :)
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] viperbjk:
It should work fine using an sd cardreader and y-cable.

You might have problems with read-only sd cardreader

OR

if the sd cardreader isn't powered externally (means no sd card reader will work without dc power).

For the latter, be sure that you power the sd cardreader using an external power source.
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] ceesheim:
How can I test/see that ?

I can write on it (I used it to put the .img and .nbh on it)

I did all this (I used the charger for that )
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Aerox912:
Maybe i'm just stupid, but what can i do with a goldcard on wp7? mozart doesn't even have a microsd card slot. yeah internally for the main sotorage, but i'm not planning on swapping that one very soon.
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Lifeforce:
Thank you very much for the description, though some points are still not clear.

The black end of the Y cable goes to the device, the other black one goes to the SD card reader, the third one which is red colour gets power from the PC.

Through this there is no sync to the PC.

The question is which SD card should be the ROM copy, and under what name the ROM file?

Whoever done such thing before would be highly appreciated to hear the experiecnes!

Thank you in advance, Lifeforce
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] viperbjk:
Just to clear things up :

1. The goldcard generator works currently for all WM7 HTC phones, including Mozart, Gold and Schubert.

2. Connect the y-cable with sdcard reader and inserted goldcard, connect power usb to notebook or charger.

3. Press camera+volume down+power on to enter the bootloader in host mode.

If you haven't got a y-cable (otg), you can build it by yourself, see attachment.
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Lifeforce:
What you wrote is all clear!

The question was, how the ROM will be on the device?

As the PC gives only power to the card reader, ROM cannot be installed from there. (there is no data connection with the PC)

So it seems only solution is that RUU_signed.nbh file should be renamed to something

eg. MOZIMG.NBH (it is a make up word, do not try it )

So the question remains, what should be the name of RUU_signed.nbh, and if it should be copied to the built-in SD card or to the GOLD card?

I expect this upon the connection Schematic and the cable which you sent a link of.
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] viperbjk:
The ruu_signed.nbh should be stored on the goldcard with the filename :

- SCHUIMG.nbh for Schubert

- MONDIMG.nbh for Mondrian

- MOZAIMG.nbh for Mozart

And the goldcard should be in the sdcard reader connected to usb cable.
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Lifeforce:
And SPARIMG.nbh for Trophy

Tested on all 4 devices

Thank you!
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Adam86:
Good afternoon,

Is there anyway to do all this with one of these cables:

[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Adam86:
This is the idea i've had with my cable...is it going to work?

My card reader is mini usb, I have used a USB Coupler so I can plug in a MicroUSB adapter and then have one USB left for power.

Please find pictures...hope it works, getting sick of O2 Branded HD7!
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Jeanphi12:
I format my micro SD in Fat 32 and used my HTC Desire with goldcard tool to create my gold card. I copy SPARIMG.nbh and I put the SD in my Trophy.

Thank you

[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Adam86:
Thanks to the help of xboxmod I have now managed to create a goldcard and flash my O2 Branded HD7 into the HTC Europe Unbranded Model.

He did say he was going to put together a post explaining what he had done, but he hasn't done this yet and I dont want to steal his thunder but I am just wanting to put together what I have done to try and help out others.

Basically the cable I used was a 2 USB Y to Mini USB Cable - they normally come with portable 2.5inch hard drives - I bought a Female to Female USB Coupler earlier on in the day which then allowed me to chain my micro USB cable so the phone could be plugged in. Initially I was trying the card reader I had for flashing but it wasnt working, probably because it was a multi reader and not just SD. After XboxMod said he managed to do it directly from his WM6 phone I decided to try this (I have a HTC Diamond 2 and a HTC Touch Pro).

I tried all evening with a 2gb MicroSD card, but it didnt work at all. So in the end I used a 1GB MicroSD.

Anyway this is basically what I did, its late now over here so I'll be brief.

I had problems with PSAS in getting the SD CID, so in the end used my girlfriends Android phone and a cool little utility called goldcard helper (or something to that name) when I compared it with the results I was getting in PSAS the issue seemed to be that PSAS was reversing the CID as required, but instead of my digits been two 0's at the start like they should have been, they were two 2's instead. So I dont know if that helps anyone, if they have similar problems. More testing is probably needed.

I formatted the memory card to FAT32.

I used Windows Mobile for all this process so once again in PSAS I went into the WINCE card tools while the phone was set to ActiveSync and then selected write image file and chose the goldcard.img

Once this was done I then switched back to diskmode, copied goldcard.img to the storage card (not sure if this is needed) and then copied the HTC_Europe ROM for the device. I then renamed it to SCHUIMG.nbh.

I plugged the mini USB into the end of my Y Cable, and plugged power into from a USB on my PC. Then lastly booted into USB Host mode on the HD7 (power, volume down, camera) - make sure you keep it held down right until the screen comes up.

It then stats on the screen SCHUIMG.nbh and begins flashing - takes about 10 minutes - at the end of it I now have a unbranded HD7 :-)

Thanks to the help of xboxmod this evening, and thanks to the original poster for pointing out the WP7 goldcard method.

[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Jeanphi12:
No Idea?

I think I will buy a Y cable...
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Jeanphi12:
It worked on my trophy!!!!

Thanks lot!!!

For information:

I used a 4Go Sandisk SDHC class2 FAT32 formated with my HTC desire.

I used goldcard tool to find the Reversed CID and patch.

I explored and extracted the .exe update downloaded with win rar and copy all (do not know if it was needed) on the SD and rename the RUU_SIGNED.nbh to SPARIMG.nbh.

I build my Own Y cable with two Femalle USB (one for the card reader and the other to link the phone) and one Male for the power.

I boot in host usb and the update began...

Hope it can help

Good night

[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] matthijs81:
They way I understand it is that you CAN use an(other) internal SDcard to unbrand it. So you'll be needing:

1. Android or WM6 phone and a Nokia phone to format your WP7 phone's original card

2. Two microSD cards (the phone's original card + another card <4gb)

3. Torx 6 screwdriver (to open up your phone, a HTC Trophy 7 in my case)

Then the steps will be:

1. Put the <4gb card in your Android or WM6 phone

2. Retreive the CID and create your Goldcard (see instructions by ioannis66 earlier in this thread)

3. Remove the card from your Android or WM6 phone and put it in a card reader

4. Copy the RUU_signed.nbh to the Goldcard

5. Replace the orginal MicroSD card with your Goldcard

6. Put the phone into bootloader mode

7. Flash the WP7 phone

8. Format the original WP7 microSD using a Nokia phone

9. Replace the Goldcard MicroSD by the original WP7 microSD

10. Hardreset your WP7 phone

11. Unbranded WP7 phone

Would that be a correct way of thinking? (I can only try it out coming week, but I will)

All credits go to the original posters - of course.
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] Jeanphi12:
I already tried but it did not work so I used a Y cable and succeed!

[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] HD2Owner:
thank you very much for your post. finally got it working on my orange ch branded device.

i have to report that i tried various sdhc cards (8gb) with different classes (2-4).

none of them was working (tried many times).

today i got it working with a 2gb (non-hc) card (noname).
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] viperbjk:
Yep, and there is a reason why. The goldcard algorithm overwrites 0x180 bytes, but a sector is 0x200 bytes large. The Problem is : everyone is overwriting the 0x200 byte sector which might lead to unformatted sdcards and no goldcards at all. Also make sure that the first partition on larger sddisk is no larger than 4 GB and that the first partition is FAT32 formatted (FAT or NTFS won't work).

I'm currently writing a fix for the 0x180 to 0x200 bytes problem. Of course this will be also released for free in the RevSkills 2.0 Tool.

Gold Card Help Required ??

Hi,

Could anyone out there help please ? Could someone possibly generate a gold card for me for use with the HTC 7 Mozart please ? I will be happy to pay for it.

I have obtained the CID for each of 4 memory cards tried however I get a failure after writing the blocks back using the hex editor.

This was using a non-branded 1Gb micro-SD, then a Sandisk 1Gb, 2Gb and 4Gb micro-SD which all produced the same results.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
[7 Mozart Windows Phone 7 Development] phoenixtraveller:
also read this: and modify accordingly to WP7 Mozart:

AND:

Before you GOLDCARD it do Ansar's GLOBAL UNBRANDING ROM and get his SPL:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=898900

So:

1. Ansar ROMS - all of them in order - get his spl update.

2. QMAT attached (or PSAS full version).

3. GoldcardTool- get cid/make it/DO.

BUT:

Where are you in the world? PM me...

You can still if you wish email me the CIDs. Will fix you up a batch either spl or otherwise. Just pm me with CIDs of all cards. Worst case I will swap you one of mine for one of yours!!!

;)

Seriously. They are like $30 here for CLASS TEN 8GB. If you were that trusting could probably make you one if you wanted but I'd want cash 1st!!! Not a good idea to give money out to people on the net but, if you want it that bad I'd go buy you one and send it by normal mail to you easy enough. Bit weird though- email/pm me CIDs and tell me what you want. You used this tool (attached)?
