Power Management for Hermes - Increase Battery life

i think this just about quadrupled my battery life. its unbeleivable. i took my phone off the charger 29 hours ago, and i havent hesitated to use it. it dropped to 60% a little bit ago, but back up to 70% after i had it on the cable for a couple minutes to sync.

I started to post this, then told myself I have to have missed it so I checked again... I cannot find the DisablePowerManagement string in the Titan ROM dump...

So the question is, did I miss it, or is it a placebo?

I just did the changes on my phone - all the settings are definitely there to be adjusted. I didn't patch my ROM either, if that helps.

With the beams disabled, weatherpanel fix, and these registry changes, the battery life is finally at where I thought it should have been.

I don't have to charge my phone every night anymore.

Would this battery help my battery life better than the oem battery?

The key might not be there - adding it works fine.

I've done these power management reg settings on the 6700 and the mogul. They really help quite a bit.

dum-azz newb question.....can i somehow make these changes to my alltel phone. Just got it havent unlocked it or flashed the rom. I only know enuf about 'putin to assemble a pc and install windows...been doing that for myself since win-95 days. I use my phone heavily and like what i read here on battery life. i am/was smart enuf to turn off beams and "explore" the windows files.
---anyone willing to gimme some help??

It's just some registry changes. I would imagine the alltel has the same registry entries as the Sprint version, so you just use a reg editor like Resco to make the changes and do a soft reset.

got a download link?...is it freeware??searches here and mobilesoft yield other editors but not the one you mention. (sry to be so dumm--but admitting it is the first step)

[papped]

Resco File Explorer isn't free and it comes with other tools other than just a registry editor, one of the reasons it's popular.

Any registry editor that works on your device will do.

ok...got me a registry editor.....i try to change values and it says "access denied"....I'm-a guessin i need to unlock the phone
update--tried the titan unlocker without success...phone wouldnt establish sync after the first titan step
