2 prob with my dopod 900 - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

hi guys, just want to know if anyone got the same prob with me..
1. sometimes when i charge my dopod, when it reaches 100 percent, the batt indicator wont change to green, i've tried to leave it for couple more hours but still orange..
2. in landscape mode, if i set the brightness level to more then 50%.. and my batt level was below 50%, when the keyboard light turned on, the lcd backlight was getting darker.. it also happened when i was getting a text message, the lcd backlight also flicks a couple of times n getting darker.. just like the lcd didnt get enough power..
do i have a prob with my batt? or is it normal?
thanx.. i really need an input on this..

TyTN - Too many low battery notifications.

When the battery of my TyTN gets at 20%, I start getting system notifications warning me about a low level battery and others telling me to charge the battery like the manual says so.
The issue is that at 20% the TyTN still has a lot of life time, and meanwhile until the battery gets completely drained, I get MANY of these notifications that keep disturbing, it really isn't handy.
Does anyone know any solution for this? Maybe some way to start this notification only at 10% and maybe making them fewer.
It's only needed one or two notifications to remember us we are getting low on battery power, no need to keep reminding it all the time...
Thank you.
It's anoying me aswell...
I hope they fix this in the new ROM.
On the same general topic, anyone else find the battery status to be inaccurate?
I've re-enabled the small, four-bar battery indicator at the bottom of the home screen with a hack from MoDaCo.
Thing is, it's full most of the time - then wack! it goes to one-bar red and I start getting notifications. It doesn't seem very dependable. Anyone else get this?

same problem with me. looks like there is some serious bug with low level battery notification. in my case, i have Magic Button installed and i'm using its feature, which shows thin battery bar at top 2 pixels of screen (something like Batti). each time when i wake up my Vario II, this indicator always shows 100% battery for 2-3 seconds, after which it refreshes back to current state.
so this thing brings the idea, that these multiple notifications are caused because device 'thinks' that battery is full after each wake up, but after few seconds it turns out that it isn't, so system is generating notification - again and again after each wake up.
I've been having similar issues except in my case the battery is actually full.
The device powers up after being in 'sleep' mode (or sometimes during normal usage) and generates low battery notifications, even though the battery has been on charge all night and is actually full or at nearly full charge.
A soft re-set doesn't seem to help but physically switching the device off and on again seems to fix the problem (the battery showing 100% afterwards) but theres a definate bug with the power monitoring software
I really want to know how to modify registry of Hermes to avoid low battery notification too
Just a thought, on other devices such as the universal and breeze etc... (i see ive mentioned smartphones aswell as ppc) ... is the battery indicator shown in 10% blocks like the hermes or are they in steps of 1%?????
Anyone know of a reg hack or possibility that this will be changeable to 1% steps???????? (ROM change or the like?)
Ah yes, pretty irritating, guess we'll have to wait for the rom updates?

There is still no way to change the battery monitor to 1% steps.
From what I've checked, there is still no fix for this massive flood of low battery notifications. If anyone have any other idea... please share it.
My WM6 ROM show low battery warning at 40% - really annoying. I really just want to get of these notifications altogether!!
One possible cause of the battery showing that it is full only to have it drop 50-80% after a few minutes is that you are using a trickle-charger such as the USB cable to charge it.
When charging with one of these devices, when the battery says it's fully charged it usually isn't. You will want to take it off of the charger for a minute or two after it says it is full and then put the charger back on if you want to get a consistent full charge with a trickle charger.
Any news about the annoying low battery notifications?
I hate it and I would like to kill it forever...
Thanks

In s-k software's sktools there an option to allow it to show the low battery notification in the sounds and notifications. I find this very useful as i disable the message on the screen which gets in the way when it pops up to tell you battery is low. You can even change the sound or just disable the notification completely! Theres got to be a reg setting for it so people can use this little hack without buying the program.

Touch 3G incorrect battery indicator when charging?

The indicator always stop at certain %, but it show full charged after soft reset /////Does anyone has same issue?///
I have the same problem
I have no problem on my Jade. Try install ArielBattery (freeware from xda) .. this app shows detail battery % to 1% increment.
I've the same pb. After one night charging, the led doesn't turn red. But this is not critical.
Try not to suspend the 3G during charging, but only switch off the backlight
this problem was by me too in November,
make a hardreset. It has helped me.
I made hard reset before 2 months.Still i have this pb
ya me too....
notice its sometimes only. after off and on back its ok
same problem here.
Back to the store tomorrow

Bug when charging a battery?

Hi!
I have a question about charging a battery. If i charge my phone when the phone is turned on then charging takes four hours and is still at 75%, but if i turned it off while charging then the battery is full (green light) in a few minutes despite being only at 75% while it was on??? If i charge the phone turned off then the charging takes a little less than 2 hours and the green light turns on, that is pretty normal i presume. So is there a bug while charging the battery when the phone is on? thanks for all your answers!
(sorry for my English, please try to understand )
In Thailand, this problem about charging battery is called "Red Light Problem".
Battery meter will show hang at about 75%, Red Light on. (I mean that my phone is turn on and charging about 3 hrs or more)
But after I soft-reset, battery meter will change to show full, Green Light on.
No have this problem, if I charging while phone is turn off.
For this problem, My phone is already claim (change new one) from htc Thailand. (good service)
Some users in Thailand try to test and find out, this problem will occur when we install SPB Backup (or/and/not restore from this program also).
After hard-reset, this problem is not come. (some users still come again )
Some users change from HTC Official ROM to Customized Rom in xda-developers, this problem is not come anymore
And the other problem is battery meter show not be equal after soft-reset time by time.
Example that, battery meter now showing 75%, after soft-reset show 60%,
soft-reset again show 70%.
so this is not a big problem then. it is just some kind of a software fault. maybe it will be gone with official windows 6.5 release. I hope it will be soon.

[Q] HD2 Screen Stays Dimmed but on even during Standby

Newbie question. I just bought an HD 2 and installed cyanogen mod7 v2.6. I noticed that when on standby mode even though it is not used for more than 1 hour the lcd does not completely turn off. You can see that there is still a faint light being emitted by the screen. Can anybody help me on how shut down the LCD completely off during standby mode? Its a drain on the batteries.
Any reply much appreciated.
