My new 2600mAh battery is doing very well. At the end of the day I still have 70%. Although its only been 3 days.

First thing I did, is make sure activesync is set to manual sync. Nope that did not help here. It might help you but, in my case, it did not do anything.

Again, today, same problem, used the phone for about an hour, then on my last call, the dreaded beep (battery low).

Just wondering on the magic combo, just would like someone who is getting 3+ hours talk time and 26+ hours of standby with 6.1 to post their config file, so I can try it, to see if there is something that I missed that might help here....

This is me right now

Yes, and bluetooth is turned off.....(have not used it yet, worried about more battery life loss)

See my post #9 in the following thread. I am still using this config now that the kitchen is corrected, but I do make the change noted in post #17. At one time, I thought my battery life was bad and it was associated with HTC Home, but I was not correct. I had a PIE page open that was driving the data connection constantly active. HTC Home is on my Today screen now (I still haven't re-enabled the weather tab though...)

david,

post ur selections, ur separately installed apps, u startup services and today plugins...sometimes the only way to figure out the problem is the hard way...

also do u use the htc performance app? also what radio version are u using and what's your carrier? Do you have any apps that connect while on standby to update (today plugins, rss readers, etc), how many bars on average do u get and are in an 1x or evdo area?

Have you enabled these battery tweaks that can be found here? http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...65&postcount=2

Also if u want to try this and see if it works try, I personally didn't notice much of a battery difference but add this registry key under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services

DefaultNpwNoServer : REG_DWORD and set it to 1. Explanation can be found on this page

wow! Cant believe you have to do all those things to get your ppc to live. I must have gotten lucky with my Touch cuz even without all those tweaks my ppc lasts about all day. Maybe consider a bew battery.
