I've noticed that when the phone is on and the GPRS connection enabled the device doesnt charge itself FULLY (upto 100%) during THE WHOLE NIGHT LONG charging in the cradle - only till 94%. I have to take it from the cradle, close GPRS and put it again into the cradle. Only after such dances the charging proccess goes on and it takes about 10-15 minutes to receive 100%.
Is it a bug or a feature?
GPRS attaching should not consume any power ... but GPRS transmission consumes considerable amount of power .. maybe that's why you can't reach full battery if you leave MSN on for example
But it is in the cradle THE WHOLE NIGHT LONG. It have to be charged FULLY not depending of working any apps at all.
if you look at the xda2 when it's charging then you'll see that it's by no means charging all the time
it's only charging when the led is orange
when it feel that it's full then it start to blink green and use it's batt
then when it's batt % get lower then some lavel it starts to charge the batt again
when it's in the cradle it dont get power from the cradle
the cradle just charge the batt
so it cant charge the batt 100% and then get it's gsm and standby power from the cradle it have to get it from the batt
In other words, you wonna say, that 94% is the cut-off level for the proccessor to begin real charging battery proccess when going from 100% down?. And I hit this moment every time when I waking up in the morning?
i dont know
neither do i
try turning flight mode on then charge the phone. I sometimes get a 100% charge reading because of this
yes, of course. i know that. the question was - why?
we cant know for sure but maybe it's something to do with the batt measure have issues making a good measure at the same time as the batt is being used
i also have this problem in charging my xdaII. when i'm charging via the supplied power supply/charger, i'd only get 94% or sometimes 97% charge (even if it was charged the whole night, with the pda off but phone on). however, if i put in on the cradle (with the cradle connected to the usb port of my pc, but no power supply connected to the cradle), i'd get 100% charge after 10-15 minutes, the xda having it's pda and phone on all the time. what gives? :roll:
Hey Guys,
I have a query regarding charging my Hermes / 8525.
If I plug the phone into a wall unit, the orange charge light immediately comes on.
If I use the phone, or receive a call the phone continues to charge.
Once the phone has been used the phone/screen stays on.
When I plug the phone into my car adapter, the phone doesn't begin to charge until the phone goes into sleep mode. But then when I go to use the phone it stops charging. So if the battery is on it's last minutes, plugging the phone into my car adapter does NOT let me continue to use the phone. I have tried 3 different car chargers.
This week I bought an XTLINK Bluetooth Cell to Landline Converter. This is a great little box, and I love that once I walk into my house my cell phone rings through my phone system. Call Clarity is great.
But with the Bluetooth link active constantly the battery drains like crazy.
So I purchased a desktop charger unit. It arrived today. You can use it to charge the phone or with USB to synch the phone. So I plugged in the wall adapter to the cradle, and the phone only charges when not in use.
But when I hook up the cradle via mini-usb to my laptop the phone goes into constant charge mode - but it's doesn't stay on after being in use.
Can someone explain to me why the phone has these different charging modes ? Is there something I can do to change a setting to make the charging more consistent ?
Thank you,
Dave

no one else knows about this ?
I have the same problem with USB charging in the car when I was running vp3G's Rom. Now I switch to Crc's Rom and the problem is gone.
But my phone would stop charging if I use my GPS software thru bluetooth and bluetooth headset. In that case I just reset my phone and it would charge normal again.
I have seen this too. I don't know the exact details, but the phone checks the charging current when it is on, to see if it's within a certain value. If it's not, it stops the charging circuit to protect the battery. That's why it works when it is asleep. You'll need to buy a car charger specifically designed for the Hermes.
Yep, there is a long thread on car charging on the forum. Like the other uses says, either buy a HTC official charger or have a look at the other thread about soldering pins 4 & 5 together on the USB connector.
I have a generic car charger from a local electronics store that does not have a problem charging whilst talking over a bluetooth hands free and navigating using a
bluetooth gps receiver, however, I am using one of CRC's roms so that might be why.
The only thing I have found is that if I leave the charger plugged into the hermes when I start the car the hermes stops charging and will not charge again until I reboot it... disconnecting the plug before cranking the engine and then whacking it in straight after works around the problem though.
There is probably so much of a voltage drop when cranking the engine that the little DC-DC convertor can not keep the charge current up.
the first battery charge on the HD is supposed to be a 8 or 10 or 12 hour charge? or on its not necesary
also the time used to charge it to the pc via usb cable is same as if ud plug it in the electric socket?
how long dose it take for u to charge ur phone.....
mine had 4 lines out of 10 and after 3 hours of it beeing conected to my pc and not in use its still got 4 lines....
opinions seem to vary on how long for 1st charge - personally I left mine on (mains) overnight, but that's just because I've had mobiles since year dot, and you used to have to!
But charging via PC doesn't seem to work as well as from the mains charger - depends a lot on the PC and how much juice it kicks out, some are a lot better than others.
Modern phones/batteries do not need "overnight" charging. My Touch HD even came with a little note saying you don't need to charge for 16hrs/overnight. Just charge until it's full...
Better to charge with wall socket because not all USB ports provide enough current. Some can't charge through the USB port while some can.
I can charge through my notebook but it takes a lot longer than the wall socket.
thanks bouth of u for the fast anwsers....
When I set WiFi settings to max performance, my HTC HD will not charge at all, actually it will loose charge during night, display is off, just WiFi, GSM and GPS is active, connected to provided wall charger. Back side of phone is really hot, I measured over 54°C
Problems charging.
guys(and lady's) Just got my HD. been running it for some time to drain the battery, while on my laptop the battery starts charging. I wanted to drain the battery to give it a good charge afterwords so I turnd off the option of charging while unit is active( in batt. menu) but When I got to 5% batt.cap. an tried to charge the unit (batt. option enabled again) it doesn't charge. now my batt. is empty and can't get in the phone. while on power my battery charging led gives a couple of seconds of charge indication then it turns off.
Any suggestions or is my battery dead. (charging unit is oke, and when on power the HD does give sufficient power to the battery (measured with mulitmeter) thx guys edit - Als when on power green and amber lights blink.
Could that be that your battery is too hot ? There is some safety protection that prevent the batyery to charge when it is over a temperature level.
battery not charging properly
My touch hd not charge the battery more then 50% i change the battery but same as before.
any suggestion
Regards

Touch HD Battery Charging Problem
The rom i am using is Energy 3 Rom
and try to use both sources wall socket and pc usb both are same.
if i charge the battery on usb cradle and put the phone it shoes 100% but after some use of the phone the charging start again and never show's full even left it over night.
Best regards
Not sure what's going on there,but try draining the battery to almost empty each time and then turn your phone off before charging it. Do this a few times and see if it helps. Mine took about a month beforeit came good.
Dear samlives
Thanks for helping
I will try it
Best Regards
HTC Touch Battery Charging Problem
I got a solution its not 100% but for time being its working for me.

All Done now charging 80 to 90% quite better then before.
Thanks a lot
Does using the AC charger charge the phone any quicker than using the USB charger?
I know I could try it, but Im trying to open as little of the packaging as possible in case I send the phone back.
I cant believe it takes SO long to charge and yet so little time to discharge
Should the phone be switched off when charging? It seems that if it is on, it drains the battery quicker than it charges??
Mine has been on charge since just after 9am and it is at 76%! I got to go to work in an hour
91 minutes ago I took the galaxy off charge . Dow
n to 81% battery. 30 minutes of that was travelling on my bike.
Ill be generous and say I spent 10 minutes browsing. That is some terrible battery life.
using AC adapter / mains power is always going to be faster than charging via usb because usb can only draw a certain amount of power... and no it does not matter if it is on or off when charging .. when battery is full it stops charging...
next... the battery life is fine. I get two days use with have HSPDA / wifi on 24/7 .. I listen to music for about 2 hours a day... email is getting pusher over as soon as possible...
Use advanced task killer.... and other memory 'cleaners' ...
and turn auto brightness off and set it to minimum when you can
Hi everyone!
My Nexus had a great battery Life at the beginning..after 6 months,it started to last less,so i bought a smartwatch to help the battery last longer; but the things didn't get better. The phone overheat when using maps or play some games just for 10 minutes;when i unplug the charger at 11.30 am in the morning,it goes to a 50 or 40% around 4 o' clock pm in the afternoon just after sending some WhatsApp messages, and after have played 15 minutes..the battery drains really really fast..but worst of all,when the battery reach the 25%,suddendly the phone turns off,telling that the battery have reached 1% and is empty. If i turn on the phone again,the battery percentage indicator is still set to 1%..what's the problem with it?i have a faulty battery?Need to call the Google assistance?
The phone is stock,not rooted or anithing else.
Thanks a lot!
I have had the same issue.
Occurs sometimes when I'm on 10%, I power it back on and it says 1%.
The problem is if you charge using QuickCharger all the time, especially overnight, it can degrade your battery but in a way that it doesn't fully charge.
Try using a normal USBC cable you got and PC to charge it for a few days...don't leave it charging more than 3 hours.
See if it'll get better after a week.
I Always use the supplied charger from Google..sometimes a car adapter with a usb c- usb c- cable...how is it possible that the stock Wall adapter mess up the battery??
