Re: 3.35 Battery Killer. More like slaughterer.
I'll second that post... I don't have any scientific data but I do notice the battery going down VERY fast whenever I'm doing Data heavy tasks like steaming video, radio, etc. It's almost like you can watch the battery gauge dropping in real time.... I mean, shorter battery life is probably expected with heavy data use but perhaps not to this extent.
Whenever I do normal non-Data intensive stuff, the battery life seems normal. |

Mine was still turning off the radio even when it was plugged in... Something's not right.

Have you all tried implementing the registry battery hacks to see if that fixes the problem?

Re: 3.35 Battery Killer. More like slaughterer.
Well, I made a ROM from DCD 3.0.1 using the exact same OEM packages that I had in 2.3.2.... Something is definitely wrong..... I could go almost 2 days on the 2.3.2 ROM while this new ROM on 3.0.1 just eat the battery fast. From 6:30 PM tonight until now, having the phone in standby, and yes I closed ALL apps, turned OFF HTC Home from the today screen, and the battery dropped 22% without using it at all.... Tomorrow I'm going to reflash the 3.27 radio and try my older ROM all day to see whats going on. I suspect the radio is keeping the GPS chipset "alive" by accessing it on a preset timer... kinda like keeping the pump primed, so when we want to use it we don't have to use a starter program like on the 3.27..... just a hunch, but will post back tomorrow sometime.....

Re: 3.35 Battery Killer. More like slaughterer.
forgot about the reg hacks. it's like you tweak your phone, then reflash, then you gotta remember to redo all the tweaks.
i just did it so i dunno how this will work yet. also, i will also buy the notion that the battery is being mis-read by the phone, especially after this new rom flash. |

Re: 3.35 Battery Killer. More like slaughterer.
I'm almost positive it has something to do with the phone reporting the battery life as incorrect. Is anyone using the 1% increment battery life indicator? I am and noticing this.

Re: 3.35 Battery Killer. More like slaughterer.
I'm not having any battery life issues...
Jeez, it seems like I'm the only person who flashed to 3.35 who has no problems with it whatsoever...

Re: 3.35 Battery Killer. More like slaughterer.
The way I "fixed" this is when I am not going to use my phone for a while (IE not using GPS or making calls) I go to comm manager and turn the radio off then back on.
I had the "battery out" problem as well for the first 2 nights, but turning the radio off then back on before turning the screen off made it so that it had battery in the morning. Hope this helps. |
