It is recommended radio by Mike1986 and I did correctly to upgrade radio version.

OOkk...Well,you can check everything by installing current widget.It will monitor the electric current of your battery.

First off,how is your battery life?Are you experiencing any drain?And have you tried different roms?Maybe it's the rom.A bad flash maybe or a corrupted download(mike's rom is fine from what I know,haven't tried it myself yet).
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Laus007:
In my opinion this has to be a hardware issue.

Not even my device gets >over< 34° Celsius at 1,8 ghz after 3h watching youtube with full brightness.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] francescoandrio:
I have battery life improvement after I flashed Revolution ROM. I didn't do anything wrong when I flashed the ROM.

Here is how I get new ROM.

Radio S-OFF first

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=857537

Then I asked in radio thread whether I can do ENG S-OFF

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=889093

then ENG S-OFF

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=855403

Then I flashed Revolution ROM 2.0.11

Everything seems fine. MD5 checks are verified. But I cannot find the problem. But it was a bad flash, I have no choice to flash ROM again.

If it is hardware problem, I cannot go and ask customer service to check since warranty is voided. Battery replacement might be one option.

You have mentioned awidget about monitoring but I have no idea and I cannot find that widget in Market or file sharing cyber lockers. Any clue?

Thanks,

Francesco

You are lucky to possess such beautiful performance device. Somethimes I'm thinking of buying durable phone with beautiful look and sophisticated features. But I have a feeling that none I have bought so far.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tolis626:
Well,the widget is CurrentWidget,you can find it FOR FREE in market! ;)

Now,if it's a hardware problem don't panic,warranty issues can be sorted out.If you are unlucky enough to have hardware problems,you will have to flash a 1.32 RUU.ENG S-OFF will be gone with RUU and you will have to manually S-ON your radio(More info on jkoljo's radio s-off tool's thread!Credits to him!).After that I believe you'll have no problem with warranty! ;)

Well,that depends.His device can handle high frequencies(And that is really cool btw! :D ).Mine can handle an unstable 1881MHz @1500mV(bad! :mad: ).But it is really stable up to 1728MHz.However,my device can do really well with low voltages.For instance,I am running stable @825mV for 245MHz and @1425mV for 1497MHz with LeeDroid's kernel,which I think most devices can't handle.So I have lower power consumption than average! :D

Every CPU is different,that's what I want you to understand.Although it did sound like I am boasting! :rolleyes:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] francescoandrio:
Ok, I found CurrentWidget in the market and I have installed on my DHD. I have opted to log everything it can. I'll post the log file before next charge. Currently, I have hot DHD in my hand temp running from 37-40. A few seconds ago this widget shows 558mA. I don't use SetCPU and the clock must be 1GHz (default). Does it tell something to you?
[Fascinate General] LXative:
Firmware 2.1-update1

Kernel 2.3.29

Phone is rooted

I haven't tried to use Google Maps since I rooted, until now. After I rooted and got rid of a bunch of bloatware, I did screw up and disabled a few apps I shouldn't have messed with. A few of them were things such as Google Talk and some other things......that I 'thought' were useless, but found out quickly I couldn't even DL apps from the Market without some of them.

I got that straight, and now I have found the only thing that doesn't work is nav. I can enter the address, and the driving directions come up in text. I can also see an overall map, with the directions outlined. When I click to change teh screen to navigation mode.....it gets stuck on "getting driving directions".

I've done a little research and tried a few things. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Google Maps, I have tried GPS Booster (tried the lite version for free), and GPS Booster failed, I have made sure all of my settings were correct for GPS......

When I first open Maps, where it gives your GPS location.....the pinpointed area it shows me in is about 0.75-1.0 miles away from where I actually am. So I am wondering if it isn't going off my phone position itself, instead of GPS.....

Anyone have any tips or things to try? I am out of things I have found to do.....
[Fascinate General] ziggy484:
you could always just odin back to stock, then re-root, and see if that does the trick.
[Fascinate General] AlgorithmX:
Download Gps Test from the market, enable VZW and Google location services, turn on GPS and run Gps test. If you able to get a lock with that Nav should get a lock as well.

If it still hangs on "getting driving directions" youve prob got app problems.
[Fascinate General] burlingtonbob:
I don't think there's anything wrong with the app - pretty sure it just says "getting driving directions" until it gets a GPS lock, so make sure you're locked in the GPS Status app before trying the navigation.
[Fascinate General] LXative:
I'm hoping for a much simpler solution. :)

Downloaded two different free GPS testers.....neither will lock a location. :(

Ya....
[Fascinate General] LXative:
I'd also like to also reiterate that after I rooted and deleted a bunch of bloatware, I did accidentally deactivate several things. I didn't actually delete ANYTHING, I simply renamed the extensions of everything from ".apk" to ".bak". Are there any critical apps I could have killed that aren't blatantly obvious by their names? I think I have all the Google stuff, and any of the voice things returned to normal. In fact I had to do that just to get the market to work....

Update:

I changed the last app I listed above back to .apk, and noticed that there were some changes for the better.

vnav_4.7.0.258_i500_rel_PROD-signed

When I opened Maps, I pulled up the directions like normal.....then switched it to navigate on the map. What I noticed was that the map showed up in the background.....and it was actually plotted my exact location. The map was still grayed out, and it still shows "getting driving directions".

I also ran GPS tester.....and it now shows lots of info on the display, but I am still trying to figure out how the fark to work it. :D
[Fascinate General] LXative:
Ok, GPS tester plots within 20 feet of me.......but I can't get Maps to get into Nav mode still.
[Fascinate General] LXative:
ttt

Anyone?
[Fascinate General] LXative:
Anyone? :(
[Fascinate General] cseeley:
Tts is text to speach.. you need that for spoken directions.

Just a thought, but why not change all of the not so obvious ones back to apk's, and just see what happens.

Hi there. I have used VISIONary + to root my DHD just to change the gps.conf into my nearest NTP.

But now I do not know where is the gps.conf file gone to. It is now totally missing from my device. Even using the search engine I am unable to find it.

Unrooting back the device also makes no difference (i.e. still missing).

Where go wrong??

Can I find any other ways to create back that file??

t-moble g2 stock rom.

i swear i looked all over for this but i havent found anything that talks about my issue.

My issue...

once the handsfree profile comes from a phone call and whatnot the phone wont play over a2dp anymore. reconnecting the headphones allows stuff to play over a2dp again but as soon as the phone switches to handsfree profile i have to reconnect.

my iphone and my tytn hermes switched between the two flawlessly.

any solutions?

Does anyone experience this problem too? I just cant download most of the files unless i can find them on the market. Why does it say i have no sd card whhy i have, i cant even run android without it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] Eodun:
1.-Backup SD card to your computer

2.-Download HP format tool (google) and format sdcard FAT32+FULL FORMAT

3.-Restore sd card contents

4.-Try again.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:

[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
From THIS thread? That has the most up-to-date and working package build, to my knowledge.

Give it a once over and leave some feedback. Format FAT32 is suggested.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] klooher:
I have formated and cleared sd card. Downloaded the package with new android and problem still occurs :/.

Even if i go to setting-location and security-install from sd card it says that sd card isnt present. It says there is no sd card under SD CARD/PHONE STORAGE(or something like that) too.

-Where should i put apk file to install it?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Android Development] R^7Z:
You are using an at&t Fuze/RAPH110/TP, right?

You can put the APK under the folder called AndroidApps

Additionally, make sure you are using something other than the windows format tool. (FAT32 ofc). Also, I've heard of these situations (not able to download from Market) with the earlier builds such as Eclair and Donut but very rarely with FroYo. Not saying that it is impossible, just that you are the first person I have attampted to help with this issue :)

[XPERIA X8 General] Redpik:
Just read carefully the thread.

You just install apps and see with TitaniumBackup if your ext partition decreased size. Internal memory will be used too, but in small amounts. There is also this link about dalvick cache.
[XPERIA X8 General] LFSPovo:
When I install apps, the phone memory decreases, ext3 partition stays the same in TitaniumBackup.

Maybe it should be ext2 not ext3? :mad:

Well, I have ext3 and works fine. There should be something else. Try again with the one that moves dalvick cache

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TheATHEiST:
Try other builds or you can also install Current Widget from market and view your mA useage, enable log and then you can keep an eye on it and see what the minimum useage is. It should be around 1-5 in standby, if not then you have something running that is eating up battery.

If it is at 1-5 mA and you still have battery drain then it could be your battery on the fritz.

Problem is that allot of people tend to stick them on charge before they are drained properly or also do not let it charge fully. Some battery type's have a sort of memory and if you dont charge/discharge properly it can affrect overall battery life.

There is MANY thrteads on battery issues but really this shouldnt be an issue anymore as majority of ropms have great battery life. Also remember that Android is a battery hog even on native devices.

So check out some threads and try some solutions.

Please don't let your battery discharge completely. If it does you will ruin the battery.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jonny68:
this is not true mate not true at all, ive let my battery discharge completely a few times and it's still in perfect condition.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dkl_uk:
I don't doubt that at all after a 'few times'.

However, since I can't be arsed typing out my own explanation, how about I paste you one from the experts.

"Avoid completely discharging lithium-ion batteries

If a lithium-ion battery is discharged below 2.5 volts per cell, a safety circuit built into the battery opens and the battery appears to be dead. The original charger will be of no use. Only battery analyzers with the boost function have a chance of recharging the battery.

Also, for safety reasons, do not recharge deeply discharged lithium-ion batteries if they have been stored in that condition for several months."

Also:

"Unlike NiCad batteries, lithium-ion batteries do not have a charge memory. That means deep-discharge cycles are not required. In fact, it’s better for the battery to use partial-discharge cycles.

There is one exception. Battery experts suggest that after 30 charges, you should allow lithium-ion batteries to almost completely discharge. Continuous partial discharges create a condition called digital memory, decreasing the accuracy of the device’s power gauge. So let the battery discharge to the cut-off point and then recharge. The power gauge will be recalibrated."

So as long as you were hitting the 30-charge-and-dump schedule, you'll be ok.

Hi,

I keep on losing signal strength (red x appears on signal bars). I am not sure what is the cause of this problem. Can someone tell me if this is normal or to what causes this problem. I have been using Memory Booster as well as Battery Booster but I have not experienced this problem until the stock 2.1 update came from SE.

Here's my phone information.

Model: X10i WORLD/GLOBAL (dunno if it's the same) GENERIC

Firmware version: 2.1-update1

Baseband version: 2.1.54

Build number: 2.1.A.0.435

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kable28:
Max for signal is 4 bars. I have like 3 bars then I get an x mark on the signal. Out of the blue I just lose signal strength. When I was using Memory Booster, everytime it boosts and kills the "backup and restore" (comes with SE's 2.1-update1) application/process I lose signal strength. I excluded the process and everything went well but then the problem popped up again recently. Is this a normal problem?
[EVO 4G General] Android 17:
I know a lot of people brag about great battery life, getting 20 hours or so of life, but really, unless you have a godly battery, I doubt with heavy usage you could get more than 6 hours of life.

I'm asking for opinions here, because I get about 2 and a half hours of Display usage before my battery dies.

Is this about normal? I'm sure the signal plays a part, as I average around 92 - 100 dBm signal in my city, which I know isn't very good.

I turn off my 3G whenever not in use, I have display set 30% brightness, auto-sync is off, gps, bluetooth, and sometimes I put the phone in airplane mode when signal is weak.

My point is, even with all the battery saving tricks, I get about no more than 2 hours and 30 minutes of Display usage, regardless of whether I'm playing a game or using the browser.

Running CM7, with Conservative, min 245, max 998 MHz as well, stock kernel.

i get about 3 hours screen on with stock and double with my chinese extended battery.

they're both more than enough for a full day. i dont see how i would be bored enough to be using my phone screen on for 3 hours in a whole day anyway haha.

i think some people consider playing music for a long time a "heavy" use of the battery which in my opinion isn't true. playing music barely drains anything when it's on for a few hours even with 3g.

but yeah i dont think the stock has enough juice for screen on more than 3 or 4 hours. i get 20 hours usage frequently but that doesnt mean the screen is on the whole time. in a day i probably play half an hour of games read news on the bus for 40 min to and back. read some news browse the web during lunch and listen to music throughout the day.

My opinion. About 100 texts, 15-20mins of angry birds 4G on, lots of web browsing. That's heavy usage.
