[EVO 4G General] SayWhat10:
display is incredibly low for all that many hours of not being on charger,its not possible to use the phone without the screen coming on is it?

is your display set to automatic? or u have it set real low?

i guess this includes like 8 or 9 hours of screen off and non usage over night when you sleep?

I got a 3500 battery and cant get life like that

but if android system is not a high percentage, doesnt that mean u really not using the phone at all? like im sure i can get over 24hours on standby only im sure, because at night i only drop about 6% with 8 hours of sleep
[EVO 4G General] naveeds786:
I flashed Fresh 3.5 several days ago too. I switched from the latest CM 6.1 RC (RC2?). The battery life, to say the least, has been incredible so far. I'm running:

Fresh 3.5.0.1 ROM

SBC Net Kernel 4.1.9.1 with havs v7

the latest radios, pri, etc. from Fresh's website

SetCPU

I usually keep bluetooth and GPS off when I'm not actively using them, but leave 3g and account syncing on. The only accounts that sync are google mail/reader/contacts/calendar (push), facebook notifications (push), and facebook for HTC sense (once a day). No twitter. I'd estimate my bluetooth to be on for 1/4 of the day. GPS is turned on when needed for google maps.

Mostly I text, gchat, email, and browse the internet on my phone. I have about 20-30 minutes of talk time. Lookout is running in the background. I don't run an app killer. Even with some pretty abusive use (over 100 texts throughout the day, 45 minutes of phone calls, playing angry birds for half an hour, checking google reader 3 times a day) I havent' been able to drain the battery quickly at all. With medium use, I'm at about 40-50% after 12-14 hours off charge. In the past, I've used multiple CM roms and the stock Sense rom, but this is the best combination I've had so far in terms of speed and battery life.

Even if CM releases a gingerbread rom, I don't see a compelling reason to switch due to the performance Fresh is giving me. I just hope it stays this way and doesnt start slowing down.

Using the latest sbc kernel with fresh. Left phone off charger overnight. Phone was at 78%. Woke up this morning, phone was at 77%. Not bad.

Mitchell's EVO
[EVO 4G General] SayWhat10:
so the EVO was the first 4G phone, but nobody uses it eh? even tho you have to pay $10 extra a month?
[EVO 4G General] Bielinsk:
With the new kernel I leave 4g on all day and am able to get through the day and get home with 30% left or so.

Before this I couldn't make it past lunch with 4g on.
[EVO 4G General] SayWhat10:
which new kernel are you referring to? the stock htc #15 that comes with fresh?

well i just installed the new fresh, using the new kernel that should leave you at 100% after a nights charge

i have a 3500 extended battery, but doubt i'll get 24hours of usage as i see some people have done even with less juice on the standard stock size battery

i swear most people simply arent using this as a "smartphone"
[EVO 4G General] brownhornet:
lol.. thats one of the reasons I said these screenshots seem fishy as hell to me. Something just doesnt add up. Phone is probably in airplane mode lol.
[EVO 4G General] herzzreh:
Hmm... don't give him ****. I just looked in my stats and display is missing as well. This is on flipz's latest rom.
[EVO 4G General] mastermarc:
I can attest to this much better battery usage as well, usually at the end of the day it's time to recharge but after a day and a half of light usage it was still kicking.

Put in my extended battery, gonna see how long it takes to get down below 50%.
[EVO 4G General] quickbird144:
Don't have a pic, and you're more than welcomed to call BS, but, I was up to 15hrs on my stock 1500 and had 60% left. Granted it wasn't used much at all. Just a few text, few calls no more than 10 minutes. Some email and facebook sync going on. It's just amazing now when the phone is idle it takes an hour or so just to drop 1%
[EVO 4G General] stargaterules:
I regularly get 20+ hours on CMC 6.1.1 with SBC kernel v7 with trickle charging. This includes a few phone calls, a lot of texting, some emails, browsing, listening to Pandora/ Tune in for about 1.5 hrs.
[EVO 4G General] IEatRoots:
So, basically we all know Fresh has the best battery life. That's obvious. Anyone who denies it hasn't used Fresh. The question becomes whether or not it's fun to use or customizable, which it's not (compared to cyanogen or MIUI). It depends what you value. For me: Fresh is the better daily driver. The others are more fun to play with.
[EVO 4G General] phistyle:
like ZOMG I only use my phone to look at the clock and it can last for WEEKS!!!!! LIKE ZOMG!!!! like really... do we need another thread like this....most of the time I see these threads are from people that don't even use their phone and pretty much use it as a paperweight and are amazed about how long the battery last...sure I can leave my phone untouched and last a couple of days on any kernel or rom..
[EVO 4G General] Beejis:
Is this better battery life with the included kernel or with the SBC kernels?

Edit: Disregard
[EVO 4G General] admorris:
Sorry guys...forgot all about this thread after a couple days. Anyway, to those that are calling bs, I wasn't posting for your opinion as I don't really care what it is. I was simply stating a fact/observation. I even posted in my original thread that I hadn't used the phone that much. Personally, I think with 0 use that number is still impressive. I took another screenshot this morning and have posted it below. I may have sent 20 texts, been off and on Facebook maybe 5 times for less than a couple mins each, then went to bed and left it on wifi all night. I did have data enabled, I was NOT on airplane mode and of course have gmail set up as push and received a few emails overnight. Believe it or not, don't really care. Now, when I take my phone to work and actually use it as a smartphone (5-10 calls, 100 or so texts, facebook throughout the day, 15-25 emails), I will usually be around 50% battery life left after 9-10 hours. I'm impressed whether you are or not :)
[EVO 4G General] mastermarc:
Thats with texting, about an hour of driving with gps on, few hours of 4g. 3500mah seido extended battery.
[EVO 4G General] admorris:
Holy crap, that's horrible with a 3500 ma battery. I'm not sure what's upnwith my phone lately...sitting at 68% after 17 1/2 hours. Best it has ever been. Forgot to mention I am using autokiller set on strict and setcpu set on 250/250mhz when screen off. Other than that, I am using all stock Fresh 3.5.0.1
[EVO 4G General] bugaboo90:
I am not sure if this is a valid battery test or not, but I did 2 tests..

I loaded the fresh rom and the only extra app I loaded was the battery indicator app so I could see %s. I charged it up to 100% and started my test. My first test was to attempt to do nothing for many hours and see what happens... I let it go for 17 hours. I only did 1 major action, which was to do a nandroid backup, the other action was to just look at the screen periodically (no calls, no text, no wifi) I am sure it did some 3g stuff but nothing that I initiated. after 17+ hours the battery was down to about 86%.

I charged it back up and turned everything on (4g, wifi, bluetooth, gps) I then turned on navigation and had pandora stream music to my bluetooth speakerphone. After 2 hrs of driving with navigation routing me to my destination and pandora playing tunes via bluetooth, the battery was down to 32%. (I didn;t have any 4G signal during my drive and obviously no wifi signal while I was driving)

Haven;t a clue what this proves or anything.. I just feel good to know that I could have everything on and I could survive for 2 1/2 hrs w/o a recharge.
[EVO 4G General] mrcrptguy:
Just curious why you call this horrible on a 3500mah battery? Seems typical to me.
[EVO 4G General] edufur:
Any kind of Pandora streaming on ANY phone is gonna cause huge drain... especially when it isn't done over WiFi. But even on WiFi, I would recommend being plugged in for streaming.
[EVO 4G General] SayWhat10:
thats great for a 3500batter

if you have 68% after 17 hours, you CERTAINTLY arent using the phone

just like screen, display is only at 3%,phone surely isnt turned on much
[EVO 4G General] empiire:
I miiiiight have to look into running this... >:)
[EVO 4G General] :
The most I've ever gotten was 3 complete days without charging with medium usage on myns roms with netarchys kernal on the stock battery. I sleep about 10hours a night and airplane mode while im sleeping drains no battery at all. If i go to bed with 96%, I wake up with 96%.

[EVO 4G General] akarol:
11% in 12 hours when not using it at all is actually quite bad. People keep bragging about battery life here but they're not using their phones. Make some calls, show some call logs and then post your battery... then we'll talk. Your battery plunges when using the phone as an actual phone.
[EVO 4G General] akarol:
I deny it and I have used Fresh since launch day until about a month ago when I switched to Myn's 2.2 RLS 5. Myn did a better job at clearing out some unnecessary running services that Fresh didn't and although quite small, there is a slight advantage in battery life with Myn.

Since then I have permanently switched over to Myn's and I've been loving it ever since. Fresh is too plain and obsolete IMHO.

[HD2 Ubuntu Development] cyberjam:
Great work! And here is some more food for thought :)

Great work! I will definitely try to tinker with Ubuntu on HD2 when I have some spare time.

Btw, have you or anybody else here tried to test DisplayLink USB display adapters on regular PC Ubuntu?

Here are some links:

http://displaylink.com/shop/index.php?product=5 - USB to HDMI/DVI/VGA/Composite displays

http://libdlo.freedesktop.org/wiki/ - DisplayLink driver GPL source

Theoretically it should work on HD2 Ubuntu as well, and if it all compiles well and does work (it will probably need external power source too), we will finally have a nice Video OUT solution for HD2.

It would have been even better if Android had some APIs and/or DisplayLink had Android port, but that's another story :)

Thanks,

CJ

UPDATE: Apparently I needed to do some more research on this. DisplayLink Android support does exist too, but the device needs to support USBH mode and there are some other Dev related things that I know nothing about, and a bottom line, it does not really work on a smart phone yet...

linux/windows host as router for hd2-ubuntu.

i couldn't test it fully myself yet so i'm hoping 1 of you can do this for me.

linux host

first of all you have to enable ipv4 forwarding on the linux host.

open up /etc/sysctl.conf and change:

next save the next quote as hd2_router.sh somewhere in your home directory where you can easely find it.

follow the manual which is in the script and change where ever it is needed to fit network/system settings.

once you have done this you have to execute this as root.

if i didn't make any mistakes your hd2 should now have access to the internet by the linux host.

windows host

this is a bit easier.

open up the network adapter settings of the device which has access to the internet.

go to the advanced tab and enable "internet connection sharing".

and select the usb ethernet connection from the list below it.

now your hd2 should have access to the internet by your windows host.

if it doesn't check your firewall settings.

[HD2 Ubuntu Development] dcordes:
@cyberjam

just make sure that usb2vga device is known working in linux kernel <=2.6.32 .

then buy the device and we will try to make it work.

don't worry about cpu architecture.

@plopper

very nice. Soon as I survived the day tomorrow I will give this a go!

since megaloader is now released officially I will install it and boot ubuntu with it directly. if it will be trivial for end user I will post instructions for 0.3 conversion.

I had the same problem!

Something (after Ubuntu has crashed i took out my battery, then it happens) has damaged the Security Warning system from Windows Mobile :mad:

Search google for the correct registry key: "disable windows mobile security warning" and disable this warning via registry editor.

After that my wm was running all programs again.

I was lucky to have an remote registry editor installed, since i wasnt able to start the one installed on device ( Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate....)

Good Luck!

[HD2 Ubuntu Development] plopper:
are you like toki running a stock rom?

make sure you close all running programs before launching ubuntu as winmo is closed in a very rude way.

this may have caused the problem.

plopper
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] HJ200:
Actually we've got a interesting problem. First the HD2 had Windows Mobile 6.5, later Windows Mobile 6.5.x. Then some people started creating a Linux Kernel for it, which made it possible to run Android and Ubuntu. A lot of people switched to Android as it is faster and better supported. Later on, some genius developed MAGLDR so we didn't have to boot WinMo and boot Android directly using NAND.

But by getting a faster boot time we all abandoned Ubuntu, as it's no longer possible to load (at least for now). :p
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] Tokl:
Hi,

i had similar probs (winmo files destruction) with costom Roms also.

I use cleanram level 2 and sense disabled (via mortscipt) before starting haret for android/ubuntu...

I think this is an generally problem of WM and not Ubuntu/Android!

even my touch hd and my prophet (wm5) had problems when they locked up and then take battery out...

Mostly happens:

-old (already deleted) sms comes back and you have to delete them again

-backlight setting falls back to 10 sec

-email accounts where destroyed (password lost or account lost complete)

-the security warning for starting programs destroyed

and on and on....

Again, i think this is an generally prob of wm because haret does kill wm apprupt, not an fault of ubuntu!

Anybody has an solution for preventing this?

(must be an force write all data and then close the registry, or something like that)

Greetz Tokl
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] plopper:
that sms part rang a bell here, i saw that happen here too.

since then i completely stopped using the sense method of sms-ing, didn't like it anyway, to teletubbie like.

and never happend since then.

how does mortscript close sense?

is it in a same rude way as haret closes winmo?

all the features you named seem to come from sense as far as i know, so that could cause the problem too.

beside updating sense, you could try maxsense.

if i remember correctly the maxsense package is a complete rewrite of sense, so you could try using that to see if the problem persists.

or offcourse some other form of rom (same winmo version as your stock rom), but without sense completly (and no tweaks at all).

this should illiminate sense out of the problem and show if it comes from winmo.

plopper
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] Tokl:
I used some parts of this:

Disabel UI for more Ram

(originally i found this way in an custom rom called goatrip;) )

The secret is to disable Sense in reg, then redraw todayscreen.

Then i added to start cleanram after that run clrcad and then haret.

After an reboot another script in WM autostart enable sense again ;)

but this all did not help...

As i sayd before those errors happening also on my old Touch hd and neo (both sadly without an good new version of sense - i like Sense :) ) so its WM itself...

So we need an way to force WM to save all files and (important) the registry.

Like at an normal shutdown... but without shutdown -> run haret;)

Maybe an Chef here has an idea how to manage this? :confused:

Greetz Tokl
[HD2 Ubuntu Development] plopper:
can you post your modified script pls, cause from the looks of this example it doesn't close anything.

all the kill lines are commented out, sense just gets pushed to the background.

the best would be a bootloader which starts ubuntu, like dcordes allready suggested.

we have to find a method to generate more hours per day for him. lol

edit the source of his day and rebuild world. (linux geek joke)

[HD2 Ubuntu Development] Tokl:
Hi,

here is the Original Script: Source (German Language)

You need to have to install MortScript and CleanRam before you can use this!

This is the MortScript Code to Start:

RegWriteDWord( "HKLM", "Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\HTC Sense", "Enabled", 0)
RedrawToday
RunWait( "\Storage Card\Programme\htcAddicts cleanRAM\htcAddicts_cleanRAM.exe")
Run( "\Storage Card\Linux\haret.exe" )

And this is the Code to put in Autostart folder for automatically re enable Sense after reboot:

RegWriteDWord( "HKLM", "Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\HTC Sense", "Enabled", 1)
RedrawToday

Maybe it is necessary to adjust the paths for your device...

This all is not my Work! All thanks go to the original Developer.

Maybe someone can create an new Logo for Ubuntu and repack this as an cab so dcordes can put this to the first post,

so everybody has an nice Startmenu entry for starting Ubuntu;)

And of course a little saver WM:D

Greetz Tokl

Ah,

and i dont want an bootloader version, so i have the choice of running multible OS out of StorageCard on my HD2 instead of only 1 .... :(

(or did i get something wrong:confused:)
