I don't even know why did I update, 1.43 worked fine for me. After I installed 1.48, I've noticed several problems:
- battery drains a lot faster
- problem with the auto lock, or lock with "end" button - after I want to use the device again, it won't turn on all the time, buttons glow, but nothing happens
- few times phone didn't wanna dial some people when I enter their contact and try to dial their numbers
Anyone experiencing similar issues? Both versions of ROM (1.43 and 1.48 are WWE East Europe)
can't be that I am the only one facing these problems in 1.48
hehehe seems u are tryed to flash 1.48 a second time?
I seem to be having a problem at the moment with 1.48 where sometimes (usually) if I plug in my phone to the computer it freezes up. Only way to solve it is to take the battery out.
Don't know if it's to do with 1.48 or some other program I've installed. Doesn't seem to do it all the time but it really p!ssing me off. That battery cover isn't easy to get on and off. Why on earth didn't they put a small reset button somewhere like on my trusty Trinity.

I reverted to 1.43 WWE East Europe, downloaded from HTCPedia, but seems like battery is again draining a lot faster than on my stock ROM. I don't know what whas the catch in my stock ROM, the one I got when I bought the phone, but seems like battery was far best on it.
It was 1.43 WWE East Europe as well btw, I have no clues..
the problem with battery is with htc sense. You can notice this disabling it for a day and using the Windows default. It is a huge diference
Im using 1.48 official and not get any special problem....
Yes, sometimes after reboot my device I not get lock of screen. But if to do long press of OFF button and choise LOCK then all works fine. Also, I have problem with Skype, but it not special problem, I think.
Battery works about 1-2 day with my style of using device. It mean 1-2 hour of speech, WiFi when available, Inernet browesing and checking mail every 10min. I think, this normal.
With 1.48 I have more faster connect to WiFi, more stable connect in GSM and more natural sound.
May be, I will reflash my device to 1.43, but now Im happy from 1.48.
i have the same battery drain with 1.48,
back to 1.43
I have similar problems. 1.43 was working great for me and I thought I could get a little more out of my HD2 with 1.48. Turns out not. Battery life has decreased, the phone crashes every now and then (as opposed to never with 1.43) and the camera takes horrid pictures with the flash. I am thinking of reverting back to 1.43. I am using the Western Europe ROM.
I will now wait for official HTC roms before installing anything.
Sure you can disable Sense and have huge battery life but that sort of defeats the purpose of the HD2 in my opinion.
Bear in mind that WM seems to take a little time to 'calibrate' the battery with each new ROM. Various threads I have read suggest anything from 2-3, up to 10 or more battery drain/recharge cycles before you get a true reading.
Ditching a new ROM after only a day or two may therefore be a little previous...

Strange with 1.48 I can take really great photos which I couldn't with 1.43. My phone since I have flashed it to 1.48 never hang/crash but battery drains very fast.

I had also read something like that regarding the battery and new roms.
example for Energy ROMs
BATTERY SAVING TIPS
The first few days
• There is nothing special about this ROM to make it use more power than other ROMs except that it is tweaked for performance over battery life. After things have settled down, you should get a couple of days usage out of a charge.
• Immediately after flashing, you will probably observe very poor battery performance. This is due to the charging circuit having to reset itself.
• The battery meter will not settle down and give accurate readings for a few battery cycles. Give it a few days.
• For the first few battery charging cycles, try to charge to 100% with phone off and then allow battery to drain down quite a bit before recharging. This is so the meter will calculate drain well.

Battery drain & other issues
I am not having iszues with 1.48. battery drain.
I heard this so often in the HD forum but never experienced it, and I was flashing Miri's roms every second day.
If people mean their battery runs down very quickly after a flash, well it takes a lot of power to reboot, and then you are probably going to run the device for a while to get all your settings back. Well this I have experienced, but next charge, no problems. I flashed yesterday and recharged overnight and after a day of use my phone had 50% left. No issues yet either.

Was about to agree with you when i noticed something today: i usually charge my phone overnight (it doesn.t matter how much battery i have i just do it to be sure) but few nights i left it without a charge and notice 3% to 4% battery drain overnight (1.43 rom). After update(1.48) i left it overnight and noticed 11-12% battery drain(even though i left my phone for a few days to get used to the new rom). Don.t want to jump to conclusions yet but there could be something about battery drain in the new ROM.
I want only give my experience with this new Radio 2.07.50.27_02. I use Miri ROm v 1.5 with wm 6.5.3. One thing that was boring me,was the fact of the battery drain. I wakeup normaly on 7h morning and on 13h my battery was drain to 55 - 50% with 15 min of internet search, 5 min RSS feeds update, 10- 15 min on phone and 30 min mp3 player on the car with S2P, one weather update (3h) and one twitter update. No Bluetooth and no WIFi.
I have flash this Radio 2.07.50.27_02 on Saturday night and on Sunday (Yesterday ) i have verify immediatly that the drain was less. But today i know that is true. I use the phone in the same way i use every week day and on this time, 13:50 , i have 83% of Battery. I will confirm this again tomorrow.
I wan´t only give this information for anyone that wan´t try this Radio. I have try a lot of Radios but this is amazing.
Sorry for my bad English.
Same with i had this battery problem with all roms and radio which ever i install atlast i found my solution with this radio its amazing give it a shot its gr8
thanx
I have the exact same experiences with that radio! It's simply outstanding and it also works well with the 576 RAM hack.
radio 2.07.50.27_2
+1. very poor battery performance in the first day after flashing this radio. now it improved a lot but not quite as good as the previous ones...
the speed and stability is fantastic though.
16:30h . Make one call 3 min and one weather autoupdate. 80%.
3% drain in 3 h. Great!!!

This is absolutely normal.
Is the HD2 your first HTC?
Battery life after a flash is always terrible.
You need to wait at least a full discharge before talking about battery life.
The best thing to do after the flash is a full battery cycle (i.e. full discharging, taking out the battery for 2 mins, putting it back, full charge, battery out for 2 mins, battery in -- your done).

Yes, this is my first HTC. Buggy, thirsty, not what I expected but I love every minute with my phone because of everything else about it. This community has a lot to do with it though...
About the full battery cycle, I did all the steps except taking the battery out 2 mins after full charge. I'll try again, thanks.
also really helps to charge unpowered after a full drain.. (usb not the charger)

Hi Manuel,
Can you update what else you are using on your phone, do you have Exchange enabled.. what about the syncing.. is it 'as items arrive' or syncing manually.
Do you have hotmail syncing as well?
Do you use IM?
Sorry for so many questions, just want to see if you're phone usage is similar to mine
Thanks!
where can we get this radio and can we flash it to any rom?

Because of drain of the battery i have removed all the autoupdates from twitter ; Hotmail and other two emails accounts. The only think that i keep on autoupdate is the weather and my location that sync every 3h. i will keep this settings for one day more to see if i have the same good results of battery as the last two days.
Today again i have wakeup on 7h with full charge of battery. on 30 min of trip to work i use the phone as mp3 player. 10 min use of internet to make all the updates from RSS FEED and E-mails. At this time (9.10h)i have 92%. very good!
You can get it from the rom development section, I'm not convinced about this radio yet, the power drain does not seem to be better than the 2.06 one I was using previously. I'll try for a bit longer though and see how it goes.

Use Advanced Config 3.3 and enable all power saving features.
Disable 3G when not needed.
You should get more than a week standby time with stock battery.

That`s very nice - I`m getting only one day :/ (though I`m using raph100 only for 4 days now). Maybe it`s because I`m doing so much stuff on it very often, make some benchmarks, 3D games, applications tests , customization, xandroid(one time a day for 5-10 minutes), etc... I`m using the newest Energy rom (20th of march).

Perhaps. I meant 2 days from 100% to dead with all the radios *turned off* and phone just sitting there doing *nothing*. However, after a few cycles of draining the battery totally dead (the phone turns on and then shuts off right away) and letting it charge for 24+ hours I now only get a 10% power loss for each day of standby; even with the phone radio left on. Wifi kills the battery fast though. REAL fast. Maybe two hours of you tubing and it's dead.

rom 7720 with sd working
hi guys after i complete everything working good , i start to test my battery drain ,
my phone only keap alive about 8 hours its draing 10% 10m and 10m in standbye mode,
after that i install battery tools and i see :
7720
battery current: -42 ( standbye mode)

Well with this drain battery is impossible to use daily ,
with 75xx version in standbye mode the values was
75xx
battery current: -1 ( standbye mode)
pd_M: 0
and the battery stay alive about 3 days with using daily..

I am also having massive battery drain.
According to the Battery saver under settings, I was at 100% 5 hrs ago (estimated 1 day and 19 hrs of usage left).
5 Hrs from when i unplugged my device from charger, it is now 2 hrs left (which i estimate to be 30 minutes before the device goes dead).
battery is horrible on this build. anyone else?
btw, my bluetooth doesn't work either.
strange, please try to do camera trick. My HD2 7720 use 10% battery per 7 hours. so far so good. Btw I can not install .xap file on 7720, is this rooted or not ?
How come is this related to development, this thread belongs to Q&A.
Please Post in the correct forum.
can someone please confirm if the camera trick is simply:
1. go into camera app.
2. click into video mode.
3. exit to main screen by pressing start button?
is that it? am i missing something?
if it is that easy, where is there SO much junk just to specify how it's performed?
sheeze?
don't be stupid

YOU CAN'T CHANGE RADIO IN YUKI'S AND XBMOD'S ROM, it changes every upgrade with new one.
so, use 2 batteries if you don't have right autonomy
Guys..with some roms like Yuki v5, you need to reboot if you have charged your phone to full..to show correct reading and drain..so try it:]

Green Mango (mango beta 1)
anyone measured the current drain with HTC battery tool, im just finishing updating the 7720 language packs and will test it .. It will be nice if we could update the radio with the WP7 update cab sender.. we could try other radios, i know that the 5.51T works very well with my 2 t-mobile HD2´s.
Particularly my battery has lasted as in other versions. But now I started using economic mode available in Mango, which in turn made it last longer still.

Whant can I set to reduce consumption?

How I can check usage battery ? (mAh)
you can use HTC Battery tool from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10762409&postcount=64
Battery current - is this what I am looking for ?
yes, barrety current ... .
if you can check it, leave phone locked few minutes, unlock it and check values.
...and better when status (current battery) is lower or higher ?
if its not on charge then the lower it is the better, if its on charge youd hope it was increasing the available charge
Hi,
please, do you have any experience or knowledge about problem from first post?
(I checked I have problem with BT HF connection too - in tango. I need pair HF again and again.
If I use Mango, connection with BT HF is very quick and I paired devices one time only)
Thx.

Your battery drain is very high. Check if you have apps running in the background. Are you using WiFi?
Check its charged, it may report high drain but if the battery is half full but showing its full then it can appear to drain twice as fast, also the backlight is the biggest draw of power which doesn't work right,, im amazed its fallen on deaf ears when brought up

Thank you.

BT on settings is perfect (-5mA), until I connect and disconnect to BT HF ...
If I disconnect, battery is -45mA whole time.
If I set BT to off, battery is -5mA again ...
I have bad 3G signal .. so 3G off is better than 3G on FOR ME.

Battery was -40mA for all time ...

Is there a rom that works on an extended battery 2300mAh ? I apologize for my language
Tango 2.00b5 - drains battery like a HELL, as other roms too... I don't know those guys were talking about when saying up to 4 days bat life on this forum, but no matter what rom I use, it's less than 1 day bat life without calls, wi-fi and data! With wi-fi - less than 1 hour. Why this crap still can't be fixed since first rom was ported?? It's completely no point to use WP7 in this case.
I use last Mango ...
If I don't use phone, few days (3-5) phone "using" is possible
(BT off, wifi off, Location off, data on, 3g off (bad signal for me), email (15minutes), camera trick after reboote )
If I use phone, 1-2 days are without problem ...

when i used rom from hd2owner battery consumption was large. about -40.
with pdaimatejam rom everything is ok. consumption is about -5.
I have disabled everything for maximum battery life.
