Welcome Back!

There is also an issue with the stock battery meeter in the recent builds. While the percent over icon works fine, the stock icon does not show an accurate reading. E.g. it will say that the device is plugged in even after it has been removed from the charger for over an hour. I tried messing with the registry settings that control the battery refresh but it did not seem to make a difference.

Strangely, if you do not select a battery icon in build os, the meter functions fine although the missing cab error prevents customizations and auto config from running completely.

I also have a similar problem. Only, it's both ways. Sometimes it doesn't charge when it's plugged into the charger. Last time, I had to do a soft reset to get it to charge the 5% battery. Other times, like you, it registers it's being charged even after it's been removed. Other times, it's stopped charging before it's fully charged. However, I (personally) have considered this a hardware issue. I believe that there is a temperature sensor in there someplace that will stop the charging cycle if the battery gets too hot (or the temperature sensor (wherever it is) trips like a circuit breaker. I have also noticed that even in normal operation, sometimes the case feels hot. If I am correct, that warm case could possibly "trip" the breaker, preventing it from charging. I could be wrong....there could be some software connection between the two....
But now you have my two cents worth (that's probably only worth about one cent)

Missing cab error? OYou mean when you dont select a battery icon?

To use the stock battery you should choose that option. The only thing it does is install a completely empty, non provisioning cab. In other words it does nothing at all. Tricky ****y, hey?

Off vacation and getting back in the loop now. Sorry if I missed anything important in the thread.

I am about done with my diamond ROM and kitchen. Once that is done I need to figure out how to make them universal. One kitchen two devices, 8 CE os'es.

I have not officially posted 21015 or 21018. Does anyone think they are solid enough for the website? If so I will post them tonight. If not I will just let them be.

As well, I am hunting out new CE OS builds to play with. DJSIVA showed me a nice link with some new stuff so I will play around with that soon. I hope to post something to play with by the end of the upcoming weekend. My apology for no recent updates. The vacation was nice. The blizzard we left and then came back to sucked!

Welcome back! glad to hear the vacation was good. How was the Sprint performance while you were away?

Decent. I really liked it.

Thanks for the link earlier today ;c)

You will certainly see some of that pop up in the next kitchen rev ;c)
