Hello,
I need your help with the following problem:
I have been using my Jasjar for 5 days now and I have a problem with the battery.
As soon as it gets to 35-40% battery power the unit switches off without any notice.
The only way I can turn it on again if I put it on a charger, and than it turns on again like after a soft reset.
I installed the latest ROM from the clubimate but none 3rd party applications.
Please let me know what can be this problem.
Thanks,
Zsolt
same problem here
Hi Ronaldovic,
Have you tried with another battery or just the original?
I was advised to change the original battery as that might be faulty but I couldn't get a new one yet.

For the O2 XDA Exec the battery has a 6 month warranty. You should check the situation with the JJ
battery issues..
I had similar issue and also where on switch on the screen light goes off and back on. This seems to be linked to battery chargin "top-ups" therefore sometimes the supply from the battery is not continously smooth. Try fully draining your battery and charging fully
I have same problem with my Exec. Any solution ??
I buy new battery but...when it gets to 25%, still switch off. So I dont think it's error of battery, may be it's bug of ROM for Exec???

1 month ago I have same problem. I think is not battery.
I make upgrade by all the ROM (JAS JAR, QTEQ, MDA PRO ecc.) but the problem I have not resolution, and 2 week ago my pda (MDA PRO T-Mobile) go in htc warranty.
Sorry for my bad english.
I have also noticed this problem a few days back. My Jasjar switches itself Off when the battery goes down to 22%.
I never used to have this problem when my Jasjar was with the original factory installed ROM version which was 1.13.53 WWE, Radio 1.03, ExtRom 1.13.137 WWE. When this ROM was installed I used to get the first low battery alarm at 20% and when the battery went down to 10% the screen would dim out and the SD card would deactivate, but still the unit would not shut itself out.
I installed the updated ROM when it became available in March which is 1.30.76, Radio 1.09.00 and ExtRom 1.30.164 WWE.
I am not too sure if the problem is linked with this ROM as I usually never allow my battery to run that low. However a few days back when I forgot to charge my battery I noticed this problem. I repeated this deliberately a number of times and each time the Jasjar shuts itself off exactly at 22%.
Just wondering if there are any solutions yet.
Regards
Same here, device just dies @ 26%. Was going to buy a new battery, but that might not resolve it?? *sigh*
RE
This battery issue has been discussed in two other similar threads.
In my case I just changed the default battery to a OEM one and everything works fine :lol:
Isn't the default battery an OEM battery? I'm tempted to buy one of the 1750 mAh batteries off of ebay (original JasJar battery is 1650 mAh) - is that a bad idea?
Try overnight charging of the battery for one or two days..this will solve yr problems... :lol:
Hi,
hard reset to your device, don't forget to get backup contacts, sms and data.
battery issue
I've had similar issues. Screen goes blank when battery low, plug in to charger and all is ok. What I've found is sometimes, not always, the battery screen brightness has gone to 0, but on-mains is set for full brightness. I never changed it, so maybe the device is trying to save power itself.
MNB.
Same here. My Jasjar dies sometimes when the battery is on 60%, 50%, 30%, 20%. etc. If I use the internet or camera or something then it will go dead, but not everytime.
Sometimes I can use anything and it will last till about 10% when the SD Card disables, then I charge it.
Don't know what to do. I don't want to buy a new battery if I'm not sure that is the problem.
Yes the same on my O2 Exec. Crashes at around 32% no matter what. Only remedy is to put it on charging again.
This started after I upgraded to the lastest O2 Rom; prior to that there was no problem whatsoever and I could go down to single digit battery percentages without any issue.
Is it the new ROM? Is there any work around to this malady?
Thanks to all who reply, in advance.
Cheers.
Well judging by the number of threads on the subject this problem is very widespread, check out the threads below:-
Jasjar shut down when battery power remaining is less then 43%

Poor battery life after ROM upgrade please help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=54649
perhaps it is heat related?
XDA Exec keeps randomly soft-resetting
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=54066
-----------------------------------------------
So can we say that downgrading does not fix it, or removing certain software combinations?
has anyone actually proved that replacing the battery works or not?
With the issue this widespread (and across carriers) has anyone tried to contact HTC about this? I still have my doubts that this is ROM related, seems more likely to me that many of the initial batch of batteries have gone bad.
My battery is on order with expansy. Expect it in the next 4 to 5 days and will definitely let you all know of my experience with the new battery

I updated my Orange SPVM5000 to the 1.09 radio, and it seems to have had a bad effect on my battery life.
When there is a low signal it seems to drain the battery very fast, dropping 20% in half an hour.
Is this a known side effect of this radio version?
Any ideas on what I could do to improve things - I have searched for battery and 1.09 and trawled through the many posts that are returned to no avail.
I have Orange ROM 1.30.90 WWE, and ExtRom 1.30.174 WWE
(I haven't altered anything else, just the radio, so that seems to be the cause of sudden battery drain)...

I have a grudge as well:
Where there's low reception (or may be - not sure though - I've been using Wi-Fi for a while and then TURNED IT OFF officially) -- the phone gets 100% drained overnight...
During the daytime it's Okay, and the battery loses just a few %, 10-15% during the day... doing Bluetooth ActiveSync and all.
I so far can blame only Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or Telephone (whatever constitutes "radio").
I think I may look for that elusive application that could help log battery levels, to identify the culprit... I'm really pissed off with this already, and 1.11 reports for the UK aren't very soothing either... Gotta understand why the Hell does it discharge so quickly (XDA II does never discharge that much... and deffo not discharge to 100% ever. But I gave it to my missus now.
Weird... I found my upgrade to 1.09 improved the battery life :? I also turn on flight mode (At the point where I'd turn a normal phone 'off') before i go to sleep - this helps with the battery also
One thing that I am experimenting with is that it seems to happen when I put the device to sleep by closing the lid. If I press the power button first then it seems to behave normally.
This may be a complete red herring, but for the moment my battery life seems stable if I follow that option.

Closing the lid only turns the back-light off - the PDA still stays on... This would explain your lack of battery life. I always hit the power button when I've finished with the PDA
AFAIK the PDA is always on. With the previous ROM closing the lid and pressing the power button were equivalent actions, at least in terms of subsequent battery drain.
It is probably a red herring, and more likely something to do with trying to get a GPRS signal and hold on to it...

The phone is always on - the power button puts the PDA function to sleep however (At least, that's how i understand it)
Hi All
I've had a search around on the forums for an answer to this, but have not so far been successfull.
I was experiencing the battery blackout problem like a lot of folks out there and decided to replace the battery. My new battery (from batteryupgrade.com), works well and cured the blackout problem. However, it will only charge to 85%, now, i'm assuming this is a mis-quote and that the battery is in fact charging to 100% but not reporting correctly. I contacted the battery supplier who have offered me a replacement, but also also suggested i "upgrade" my power management software. Is this an easy thing to do and if so, how do i go about doing it ?
Many thanks for any info

I left my phone for 10 minutes doing nothing.. from 100% the battery shortens upto 5% down..pls help..suggestions..i'd be grateful for someone who can solve this..thanks!
i experienced something..after i removed my phone from the wall charger because its already full charged..it instantly decreased 1% from the battery meter.
can you post here your IPL SPL and RADIO ROM version? this might have to do with your RADIO ROM version coz some RADIO ROMS ate battery power too much sometimes.. i suggest you should use RADIO ROM 2.19 can be found on PROPHET wiki...

Hello,
I installed Android on my HD2 few weeks ago and everything works OK. I was able to reach 7ma consumption when idle (background data off, WiFi off, BT off), but the first incoming phone call makes it jump to around 90ma. The only way I found to solve it is to reboot to winmo, fully recharge the phone (until LED goes green), restart Android and disconnect from the charger. This forces 7ma again - until next incoming call. Any ideas?
(ROM 1.66.405.2 (76641) WWE, Radio 2.12.50.02_2)
TIA
Try updating to a later Radio and the latest stock winmo ROM
