Charging issue with new diamond

[vegaspimp]

Wow, these diamonds have some serious flaws!!!

i think i found another reason for the issue i posted about. at night i think i might need to hit the power button once the radio station starts playing so that the screen is then off. i am trying that right now, i will do that for about 8 hours then tonight i will try it with the orginal htc diamond adapter also.

Been a diamond user for about two months, and just started to listen to streaming radio again at work. I'm pretty sure this wasn't a problem with my old Q when streaming. I can't believe it would actually lose power when plugged in. Why wouldn't it just bypass the battery and use the power from the adapter if it was getting too hot? Anybody find a solution to this problem?

I have a sprint touch pro and i have the same issue... i use kinoma player and while listening with the charger plugged in i noticed that my phone does not charge..

It appears that if I start streaming after the phone becomes fully charged, it will not drain the battery. I can tell because it doesn't get as hot.

So, I don't see why it can't do it when the battery is not fully charged to begin with. It just needs to dedicate most of the power to operating the phone and whatever is left to charge the battery. Instead it must be letting the battery operate the phone, and then lets the adapter charge the battery as long as it doesn't get too hot. Once it gets too hot, it stops charging. Seems like this could be fixed with a software update.

On top of keeping the display off while streaming, you can also take off the back cover to help keep the phone from overheating (wont charge when it's too hot).
