Lightbulb Battery Tip

Ok, normally I would read something like this and laugh... but I was sitting here at work last night, stuck on a conference call so I decided to try this out... and I actually noticed a difference in my battery, especially the first 10% normally lost pretty quickly. Do it or don't but I'm glad I did.

1. Turn the EVO on and charge it until the LED indicator turns green.
2. Unplug it and turn it off.
3. Plug it back in and charge until the LED indicator turns green.
4. Unplug it and turn it on.
5. Once powered on completely, turn it off again.
6. Plug it back in and charge until the LED turns green.
7. Repeat steps 1-6 until the LED turns green within 30 seconds after plugging it back in in step 6.
8. Unplug it, turn it on, and use it normally.

Took me like 45 minutes to get it where the LED turned green within 30 seconds (actually I went further and did it until it turned green within 15 seconds in step 6.) Had to repeat steps 1-6 a total of 5 or 6 times but I read that some people had to do it a lot more or even less. Depends on how "calibrated" your battery currently is.

I believe the reason this works is that the battery has multiple cells and by doing this procedure you are equalizing the cells so that they are all truly at 100% If you will notice during to process your LED can be green with the phone on then you turn it off and it take 5 or more minutes for it to turn green again. This I think is because some of the cells may have hit 100% so the phone says to stop charging, then you turn it off and the remaining cells get charged up to 100%.

Re: [ROM] UPDATE!!! [FroYo Fusion 2.5] [Android 2.2 | 8/18/10 [Sense and Senseless]

Josh H is working on a wired tether fix that is affecting several 2.2 roms. Personally I don't use wired tethering but hey, if you want/need to keep an eye on this fix.

Just installed your ROM but the Market won't work. Everything else seems OK except for that. It tries to load but gets an error saying server error occurred, retry or cancel. Any ideas?

It isn't the ROM. Others are experiencing it (using other ROMs) while some aren't. I am running this ROM and my Market works fine, just tried it.

I take it that there are no fixes for it. It's pretty random I'm sure.

Thanks,

Wired tethering fix can be found here, this issue plagues many ROMs but I have applied the information found here and it works! I will look at building this into my next release as well. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=272

By the way wired tethering works with 4G as well
