Keep in mind, even tho it's 94% it's still techincally fully charged, it's just having trouble reading the top end of your battery.

Hope this sheds some light on your suttle confusion


Thanks for the heads up. My battery life did perform better over night as it only dropped a couple of percentage points while in idle. The battery fix did help. I'll continue to play around with this ROM before I decide to either keep it or try a different ROM. I do like the Call History and Calendar tabs though.

Anyway to just add the calendar? I have juicy 2.5 now but would love to have this calendar. I don't want to have to go through and install all my cabs again.

DHarvey, I just want to say thank you for this great ROM.

I tried Juicy's and yes it had decent performance there was just something missing, and then WMWifi didnt work with that one.

So I tried yours and I love the battery indicator, the fact that the upper right taskmanager is still there, its is speedy, and runs very stable. I give it two thumbs up or 5 stars. Great Job

Hi,

I also would love too know how too install just the calendar tab as in this ROM. Any help, or even better a .CAB file?

Thanks in advance.

Okay, I've decided to just install this ROM and I really like it. I think I'll continue to use this one. Is there a way to remove call history and calander from the home screen? There are tabs for these now so I don't really need it there on the homepage. And the calendar link brings up the old calendar.

This may not be true.

I have two Diamonds, four batteries, two different external chargers, and I have been doing some testing with the 1% driver installed. When using the Diamond to charge the battery, unpon unplugging, the battery will show somewhere between 91 and 97% immediately (usually between 94 and 96%).

When I use the charger from expansys, then put the battery in the phone, boot the phone (which consumes power), the battery will show somwhere between 96 and 99% after boot, but declines quickly down to the low-90s.

When I use a cheap universal charger from eBay, boot the phone, the battery will always show 100% and stay at 100% for up to 45 minutes. After that, it is a slow decline even down to 90%. I find that my battery life is better when I use this charger.

The above is the same for all four batteries and both Diamonds.

I don't believe there is a problem with the 1% driver. It is my belief, based on observation, that the built-in charger and the expansys charger are conservative and do not fully charge the battery. You may assert that the cheap eBay charger overcharges the battery. I've had that charger for a couple of years, and have used it on three other cellular phones' batteries, and have not seen a adverse effect on their service life.

Going with a 5% or 10% simply smooths the curve and masks the exact current level (having taken account of accuracy variations).

Another observation: Especially when the battery is below 50%, if I reboot the phone, the battery will often show a few points higher after boot. This may be within the margin of error.
