HTC TyTN II Battery: I hope not to be OT ..... I played with several ROMs, especially by the great chef AF.
Recently I brought my assitance Kaiser so I reported it to the original Radio ROM. Returning dall'asssitenza I left the original ROM, replacing only the radio 1.71.09.01 with Emo.
To the surprise performance of the original WM6.1 increased. I have doubts about battery life, that with normal use (a few phone calls and various connections) and the battery life of approximately 30 hours. On the duration seems normal.
Ovvimente return to more 'open to some excel ROM 6.5. Have good day
30 hours so a day + on 6.5 chillax it's pretty normal
b.t.w removed your double post
I also have a battery problem, my tytn2 lasts less then a day with normal use (calls, sms, mails, pdf reader, 3g connection). I was adviced by the chef AF to change my radio to 1.65.16.25 and i'm trying it out today: few calls, sms, 20min pdf reader, updated the weather and i took from the charger at 08:00 it's now 15:40 and still have 75% of my battery. If you are saying that radio 1.71.09.01 is even better i will try it out.
Question: How does the radio influences the rom besides sound and camera???
I have been looking for an explanation but still haven't found one. I really would like to know what it is and what it does to my device.

Thanks for the reply. Although it doesn't answer my question. I need my tytn to be reliable and it must last at least a day. I can't be testing every radio that is available risking myself to be without a phone when i need to be connectable at all time. Anyone can give me a feedback about the best (performance/durability) for my tytn. I use the rom from AF (sorry it's the "competition") and i find it very complete and reliable. The only thing that is bugging me is the battery life. I've read that the 1350mah (dynapac) isn't much of a long lasting thing but even though, less then a day???????? I had a touch before this and i sold it because of the battery life.

Well then the answer is to stay on stock with the matched radio as will have had previously, since time is what is needed just like what chefs put into cooking..
Didn't post about it's down to the user just because i like people to take time it's a must as no one will have exact the same credentials as you.
I get about 2-3 days out of my ROM, another thing you could look into is extended battery's
WOW up to 3 days with your rom, normal usage i presume??? A bit like i do???
We are talking about v5 right??? If that's the problem i will flash it and try it out for a few days........ Please advice.... rom and radio???

Read faq #4.....the radio isn't really a " radio " in the sense of the word. It is firmware.
I personally think that the mater the " firmware " version significantly affected battery life is still up for debate. But the proof is in the putting. So try different ones for yourself and let us know.
Thanks for your reply, how is the rom from stylez behaving?? I see you have radio 1.65.24.xxx but you're also in the U.S. I don't have the time to "try" other radios since the tytn2 is my main device and i need to be connectable at all time. Just this week i needed to make some calls and i got a odd response from my boss: or buy a new phone or get lost!!!!!! So i need my tytn2 to "behave " at least from 08:00 untill 22:00.
becosemsaida
Stylez' rom is great, hands down the best 6.1 out there. I use 1.65.xxxxx because that is the one that came with my stock AT$T rom so I have found no need to change it. Stylez is in UK and uses 1.70.19.09 and that works well for him.
If you don't have the time to test, find others from Portugal and see what they are using or look at people's signitures in Stylez' thread and see what other people are using

Hello people,
I'm new to posting on this forum so please go ease on me I've been reading the forums for quite some time now, since i have my wizard (back in June i think). That is when i unlocked and flashed my Wizard with a WM6.1 rom. And this was succesfully, i'm very happy with it and never had any problems, hooray!
So far so good, but this all changed untill recently. Some weeks ago, my Wizard started acting funny, it kept rebooting at random moments. It's not in a loop or something, it just reboots on random moments. In calls, in games, in the menu, just random.
Now i know this is not a software problem, since i never changed any software after flashing and i also have these random reboots when in bootloader....
Can anybody help me with this?
I should also note that i suspect my battery, since it looks old, slightly bulged out but most importantly, my battery life is normal when not calling, but after a call the battery can be drained from 100% to 30% with just one short phone cal..
/edit: Just had another reboot, this time i looked at the battery meter....It was full when i turned on the phone, and now it says my battery is empty...Now i really suspect the battery Just want to rule out anything else
I had similar issues - and the battery was the culprit. Get a new battery, your troubles should go away
Did you also happen to have other problems, regarding calling itself? My friends complain a lot about my not picking up my phone or reading text messages, and when i check my Wizard the calls are not there.....and a lot of people calling me get my voicemail directly when calling me, that shouldn't happen :/ All this when i have full reception :S Could this also have something to do with the battery? My guess is not but i sure hope so, that would solve two problems at once

Those are more than likely software related issues. Can be the rom itself, or the radio version you are using.
Which WM 6.1 did you flash, can you provide some details as to IPL/SPL - radio version, etc ??
For instance, my IPL / SPL is 2.26
My radio version is 2.26 also
Had a very similar experience to yours myself. A new battery fixed the problem. I dunno about that bulging battery of yours... sounds a bit ominous.

Erm let's see, i also flashed the IPL/SPL and radio software after the romflash, IPL/SPL is now 3.08 and GSM (radio?) is now 02.25.11. I think it used ti be 2.26 before flashing. As for the rom, i can't remember. I did some searching on the forum and i think it's [02 Jul] Wm.6.1 Os.19588 - Dutch - Beta! wich can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393841&highlight=dutch

I took some time and went through the threads for the Dutch Beta, but am limited by my language. I flash english versions only - so not much help I am afraid.
I would recommend you post your dropped and missed call issue directly into the rom you identified above - others may be having - or had similar issues and a quick easy fix is available.
But in the end - you need a battery for sure
Good luck
Okay, just ordered a brand new battery today wich should arrive tomorrow by mail When my Wizard proves to be stable i will flash a new ROM and see if that fixes that problem as well Many thanks for your help
P.S: I'm looking for a battery cover and a stylus, since my battery cover is missing one hook (so it won't close perfectly) and i never had a stylus since i bought my Wizard from a friend, who lost it
Hey Johrizz,
You should be able to find a stylus and battery door on google shopping and / or ebay. I just ordered a pack of stylus's for a couple bucks and a dollar for shipping. I've seen battery door's for sale for about 8-10 dollars... Just make sure to notice the shipping charges LOL.
I don't know if it's really required but here's what I tend to do with a new battery and have had good success.
1) for the first charge (and anytime I'm going to flash a new ROM) charge it fully (till the light is green and not orange) with the AC charger and not the USB / computer cable.
2) flash a stock operator rom and test it for a day or so to make sure the Wizard doesn't have some other hardware problem, weird battery drainage, etc.
3) Once you're sure that your Wizard is stable and FULLY CHARGED Flash your favorite ROM
Good luck with it!
hey frendz
pls help me
my newely bought htc diamond gets excessive
hot if used for 20-30 minutes pls help ASAP
Regards -- zenith
Have you thought for a watercooling? Iam just kidding..
I dont think you can do anything for this.All diamonds gets hot. The only thing you can do is not run a stress aplication for many hour, and do a break ..
Change the radio version. I'm sure someone will be more helpful and explain . I used to have that problem, but no longer have it.
I used to have this problem too, changing my radio version to 1.00.25.05 solved the problem. Read this tutorial, very helpful.
The truth is this, Diamonds are typically warm blooded, the manual speaks to this clearly that this is normal.
Now changing the Rom or Radio can play a role in how efficient your diamond is.
The harder it works, the warming it gets. I find that trying a variety of different radios for the sake of sound quality, signal and battery life are definitely valid paths.
As far as Roms are concern, I haven't investigating enough to comment however my thoughts are directed to the idea that roms will impact on how your diamond behaves as far as battery life and how warm your device gets.
I searched the xperia forum and I am not able to find information about this issue.
I would like to help making a new battery.dll.
I am trying to contact CRCinAU who did this successfuly for trinity so he can spread some light.
Has any of you already tried battery.dll from blackstone on his xperia?
Or has anyone made any steps towards a working solution?
Thanks
From what I've read, the X1 battery controller supports no other than 10% increments. If the hardware is not able to tell the software what the % is, nothing can help you.
yes but that's what everyone believed for the tytn, trinity and I think hermes as well! Could you show me where you read this?

You are correct, Also back in the days. TyTN II only -10% and now every rom has -1%.
well it seems no one is interested.
CRCinAU has not replied to my message either.
The solution is probably identical to the other devices that had this issue so it's just a matter to get some hints (where to look inside battery.dll).
I can hardly believe it, but if you do make a find, don't hesitate to post it.
here the same if you can find an solution then i also would welcome when you post it here
I tested one of thse power drivers (its a dll in the end) and didnt work... It would have to be adapted for the xperia
...and it has to be cooked-in as far as I remember form the TyTn roms.
to cook it inside isnt an problem at all, but to get an working dll or whatever is needed is the problem
I can send you the power driver "as is"
PM me
yes do so, then i will make some tests with it and cook some roms, i think if we really find an solution then all cookers will use it.
Regards,
cHarOn
Well yeah, if you'd be able to get this working, it'd be a huge breakthrough.
Alas I don't have time to take this on as yet another project.
the question is, is it really only an driver limitation, or is it really an hardware limitation, maybe i should look into the Hermes Threads a little bit?
also it would be interessting if we could find an other WM Phone with same hardware and maybe this dll should work then hehee
The most similar device is the touch HD, which has a different battery controller (1% increments already work there).
I think looking into the hermes threads will teach you a lot. Where to look, for instance?
Here it is guys:
User "nue" has a very ineteresting collection of very useful apps
He has managed to modify the power driver to allow 1% increments for Vogue and TyTn, but I also read working reports in a Diamond thread: They combined sdkcert + tsownes battery icons (has the full 0->100% icons) + nuePower driver and succeeded
Here's the link to nue's download site:
http://www.nuerom.com/BlogEngine/page/nuePower.aspx
PS: take a look at battery.dll
I was searching for the same thing, 1% increments, and came across someone on XDA froums who had changed the icons for battery, signal etc and also included 1% increments for battery. I installed them a couple of days ago and they worked fine. The only reason I removed it was because I was I need the time and battery up there and couldn't find a solution other than SBP which replaces adds an extra battery while windows replaces the original battery with the time.
which one did you use??????

The cab is called FInixNOverBattery
I have just reinstalled it, and it's showing 70% battery. To be honest, on further investigation, I'm not sure if it is actually showing 1% increments on the X1. I'll leave it running a while to see, but I have a feeling it's just showing 10% increments.
Sorry guys, this could be a false alarm.
oh no this doesnt change the battery.dll it is only an battery icon skin in 10% steps, ok have to search more and play around with the touch-hd battery.dll.
Hey.
I just got my new (used 6 months) Diamond, after my Trinity has crashed. But what i observed is that the battery life is extremely low. Is there any possibility to make it last longer. I have seen somwhere on a forum that the combination of SPL, Rom, and Radio might help, but i lost somewhere this thread, cannot find it anymore....
So please can you help me to solve that issue? The Trinity could go much longer when i was using GPS. I was thinking that Diamond should be better.
Plese help.
could you please help?
i ve seen response to threads like this:

Holy #@$*'ing @$*t ! Sorry your highness for making you wait all of one day to respond to a question that has been discussed ad nauseam throughout the entire internet.
Google is a good friend. Try typing in "Diamond battery life" into Google search and you'd be absolutely amazed as to what happens when you subsequently click on the search button! Let me show you: http://www.google.com/search?q=diam...-ca&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&startIndex=&startPage=1
In a nut shell;
1. Diamond battery is very small @ 900mAh. Buy a bigger battery if you want
2. Don't leave bluetooth, wifi, and 3G on when you don't need it. All of them draw a lot of power
3. Turn off auto backlight adjustement and set it to a brightness that is comfortable for you to read.

I tried it back in the day when was first posted for Excalibur and didn't see any noticeable improvement especially as it's only a simple reg edit regards async..
The best way to save battery is to find the appropriate Radio for ROM, use a ROM that isn't hungry on battery and an extended battery helps

Thank you for the info.
A quick remark about WMLongLife: I had to uninstall it as my Kaiser never reconnected to 3G after some time working properly. It seems a reported bug and will be solved in new releases (at least, I hope so ). I'd say that roaming triggered that condition, but have no concluding evidence.
