However, I disagree that it is the same issue with the TP. I mean, if you somehow proved that this is EXACTLY the issue, then great! I don't think it is a flaw to have to disable EvDO in a fringe signal area, either for the iPhone or the TP. But I am not convinced that this is the only problem with the TP. It is one thing to have to disable EvDO while at work to keep the battery. But it is entirely another issue to not be able to talk on the phone for a few hours while charging, at home. To be clear, I don't have a TP, so I don't have these issues. But I just don't feel satisfied, at this time, that it is worth the monetary risk and potential hassle. Maybe I should just get a Blackberry. Technically I am not supposed to have a camera. And I don't know if a WinMo Blackberry can do what the TP can, like remote desktop. Quote:

I believe I have the newest TP manufactured, (11/7/08,) and it still has many glarying, device-crippling defects. I love this phone too and I want it to WORK. Of course, if HTC and/or Sprint cannot deliver, then I will find another phone. I would hardly call it trolling to point out that most people here are pulling the wool over their OWN eyes, and pretending like there are no critical flaws with this phone. So far, the other main poll going on is saying that MOST people ARE having trouble with their Pro. Interesting news--and saddening, because it really lowers my chances, (as well as anyone else,) of getting a "perfect" Touch Pro. Last edited by ScrapMaker; 11-18-2008 at 01:24 PM. |

Re: A little tough Love about battery issues.
Good post. I had the 6700 from Sprint and ended up getting the thicker battery which lasted me all day. When I switched to the Mogul, I just pickedup a second battery which I carried with me if I was going to be away all day. It was no sweat to run empty and do the switch. Now with the Touch Pro, I do the same thing. It's really not a problem. Got a charging dock with a second slot for the battery backup. I am having fun. I can't complain when I have such a powerful little device in my holster.

Re: A little tough Love about battery issues.
I agree with the op. My mogul and touch used to give me about 4 1/2 hours of constant usage. That means internet and mp3 at the saME TIME NON STOP. Then the Pro came out. So far I have not cycled the battery enough times to give a real good estimate but I have a average of 4 hours. Now.. taking in account of the exra 124 mhz and double the ram, 4 hours is what I was expecting.

Re: A little tough Love about battery issues.
By the way, you guys remember audioinc? the guy that kept us updated on the Pros release? Well.. I remember he said that all Pros where updated again at the last minute to cure the battery heat.Then I recalled him saying if you hard reset then you will have the heat issue again. Well... its been over 2 weeks witht he stock rom and today I finally hard reseted. And to my surprised my Pro got super hot compared to before. Maybe he was right. Did anyone else noticed this ?

He also mentioned that the "fixes" were part of the ROM, and would carry over with hard-resets. |

Re: A little tough Love about battery issues.
going with the op and definitely singing his woes
coming from an i730 (not much better than a xv6600) i was forever on my extended battery making it a giant brick. The xv6700 and xv6800 I was forever tethered to an outlet which wasn't a bad thing. Same thing with the 6900. But the touch pro has great battery life. Seriously, one full non stop hour of listening to music, IMing and having my contrast on middle and my battery was at 70% after it was all said and done isn't all that bad. Now if voice wouldn't be so draining |
