Is there a way to disable the Phone Turnoff "Feature" when the battery is low?
 
This crap is annoying when you have your phone hooked into a charging source and it constantly turns the phone off. :mad:

go to settings...power...advanced...uncheck on external power: turn device off if not used for...that will solve your problems

I have this same problem and it drives me nuts too!! Yeah- I have that unchecked and it still does it. This happens when your down to 10% battery life. You plug the phone in and still want to take calls but it won't let you.

No not really. The phone is trying to stay on but it really can't when the battery is that low on power.

That said, just charge your freaking phone.

It's just annoying when the battery is low, and you get to charging the phone while on the call, and it still turns the phone off even though its charging.

use the OEM charger - if it detects a non-oem charger it will switch to slow charge mode which may not be enough to keep the phone going with the display/backlight on while on a call.... this will happen with both usb charging via a computer and most aftermarket chargers.

Yep....yep when I charge it is with the OEM charger and I have made calls immediately upon hooking it up after it went dead.....

I fail to see how your battery dies when charging. It sounds like a faulty charger, like JustRay said. The only thing I have seen that kills a battery while charging is using the wi-fi and EVDO data at the same time like WMWifiRouter.

Good feature, stops your phone from blowing up.

What rom are you running? there is a 1% battery hack so the phone reads the level more accurate.

Even though the battery is charging, the phone doesn't detect it right away. It has to increase the battery charge by 1% before the phone realizes that it is indeed charging. Until that one percent increase, it still assumes its losing a charge at the same rate.

I was just using a USB charger that I have here at work.

I don't know whether I have an "OEM" car charger or not. I have the one that the Sprint store sold me. I assume it is OEM.. It says sprint all over it! I was informed that I could use any USB charger. When I went back to the service center asking about this, they showed me their display model connected to a Motorola charger. They weren't aware of the issue and suggested I leave my phone with them which I wasn't able to do. It will not charge if you're talking on it. That seems to be a defect.

Has anyone asked Sprint or HTC about this? If so, what is their official position? I'm ready to ask them for a 6700 back because, despite being large enough to make a formidable weapon, it worked the way a business tool should.
