Re: HTC Touch Pro 2 Battery Life (Verizon)
Ok, I'm happy you seemed to have worked out a conditioning exercise for you battery life. I use my phone heavily every day, so I just pop it in the charger every night to alleviate any possible battery issues. I know my battery life would not make it 4 days, I've tested mine and get about 2 days(under my normal usage). Battery life has been discussed heavily in this forum over time, so there no shortage of views/opinions, that's for sure!
The below threads might be interesting reading to further dive into: Battery Recalibration- Mobile Battery Discharger=Better battery life How's your battery life so far? Let's discuss ways to prolong battery life... Verizon 2100 mAh Extended Battery with new door |

Re: HTC Touch Pro 2 Battery Life (Verizon)
yup on my vzw tp2 under heavy heavy use like 200-300 sent and 200-300 received texts, emails flowing in from 3 accounts, normal tinkering, calls accounting around 30 minutes, some game play, pictures from time to time, internet browsing for about 15-20 minutes, and still have enough to make it home and wait to throw it on the charger... i would let the battery fully die and than completely charge it with the phone completely off and than go from there and see if that solves your issue... if it is still heating up and draining that fast i would bring it in and see if they cand replace it or exchange it for you since i havent heard of that problem or that bad at least from any other user on *****izon.

Re: HTC Touch Pro 2 Battery Life (Verizon)
does 6.5 include the push internet for opera? that could be a big part of it.

Re: HTC Touch Pro 2 Battery Life (Verizon)
Hi HTC_P,
Thanks for the response! (I clicked Thanks). The battery life that I talking about is abnormal, and indicitave of some issue. What I don't know if it is a problem with Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM, a problem with the TP2, a problem with the Verizon TP2, or a problem with my TP2. I don't expect the phone to last days at a time, but there is no reason why it shouldn't last a standard workday on standby. Plus, simply turning the phone off, or just taking the battery out and putting it back in, shouldn't dramatically kill the battery life. After I get a few more responses here, I will probably end up calling Verizon again. I just wanted to ee if anyone else was having these issues, as that would imply a problem with the either the model or ROM, vices a probelm with my individual TP2 (which would mean it needs to be replaced). |

Re: HTC Touch Pro 2 Battery Life (Verizon)
Hi Dash,
Your example of use, I would expect it to only last about a day. But my TP2 only lasts around 8 hours (100% down to 10%) on standby, not getting pushed e-mail (or polling for e-mail, I have those options turned off), nor using push Internet. This behaviour lasts until I go through a few discharge/recharge cycles (it has been as many as 3, but this last time it only took 2), and then the battery lasts alot longer on standby. Once the battery seems to be conditioned, it works fine until the phone is turned off (hold down the End Call key). At that point, the cycle must be repeated to get the battery working decently again. This happend with both the stock HTC battery, and a replacement sent by Verizon. Thanks, your post is indicating that I might have a problem with my phone itself. However, it could still be an issue with the Verizon WM 6.5 ROM. |

Hi nrfitchet4,
6.5 does have push Internet, but it is turned off (not even setup actually), and the data connection is not on. It is very frustrating. Thanks! |

Re: HTC Touch Pro 2 Battery Life (Verizon)
ive had a experience just like this Last Monda, my problem was a little diferent in some ways. I have a stock 6.5 rom, and i was wanting some sort of program for battery usage. Cause I always have extended batteries i use Seidio 3500 mah batteries i have 2, when 1 goes dead i swap it out with the other i use a solo battery charger to charge the spare 1.
i ussually get about a days worth of use out of 1 of these 3500 mah batts. I searched around and found this thread http://rolandsdottir.blogspot.com/2009/10/windows-mobile-battery-life-tips.html about half way down it suggests a couple battery programs to use if you have battery problems i did the global switch to cdma only and installed the Dot freds task manager and Dr sig stat battery watcher. both programs seemed awesome but i noticed within a few hours that my battery that was at 80% was down to 10%. i did a hard reset and then it was all back to normal again, not sure if these programs or thread will help you guys out or not. is there anything i should do with the tp2 to have it recognize the different size batteries, everyonce in a while i will have to use a wall charger and when it is at 100% it will still take about 2 hours for the indicator light to turn green for the full charge. |
