Battery Hacks....

[cpeacha]

I just tried these on my Verizion 6700. Took my kids to school, played about 20 minutes worth of music with Toggle to turn off my screen... A few quick views of my calendar and one call... was fully charged when i left and after about a half hour my battery went to 60%.

Guess it works on some and not on others...

EDIT: Never mind... my Gmail account was screwed for some reason so I thought something else was happening.

So far, I do notice considerable improvement with the battery. I would typically be at around 20% right now, and I have about 55% left.

I'm using PHM but after I reboot all the values are back to 1. Anyone having this problem? or I'm doing something wrong?

I had the same issues with a couple of reg edits - make the changes and power off using the power button and the changes will stick.

After you make the registry changes with PHM, wait for one to two minutes, then soft reboot your phone. The registry changes sometimes take a couple minutes to save.

Anybody else notice the device not waking up for calendar notifications or other scheduled events (like night backups)? It seems to be tied to an inactivity time. During the day, I get notifications, alerts and alarms just fine. But since applying these hacks, my nightly (4:20am) scheduled backups (Sprite) are not happening. Also, lets say I have calendar events for 7am, 7:30am and 8am. These events will not wake up the mogul. But when I wake it up (say at 8:15am) all the events will alert (chime and display) at that time. It's almost like it is in a deeper sleep?

Just curious, thanks

This is a known issue with the ROM. Search and you will see many threads that are dedicated to this.

I have the same problem. The known issue you are talking about is when the phone is charging the default alarm system will not wake up. But now even if the phone is unplugged but on standby, notification will not get thru. I used to be able to run apbpowermeter while in standby and it will plot my power usage even in standby. Now it just resume from the same instance when I put it on standby.

SpbTime will fix the alarm issue
