Hi Guys,
A weird problem I encountered with my recent play with acbPowerMeter.
In normal state my Elf consumes about 140 mA +\-20 (Due to various CPU load).
However, after turning WiFi ON this value jumps to 400mA, well nothing you can do about. So, I understand that after turning WiFi OFF, the battery drain should come down to normal value. This is not a case at all. Battery discharge stays on around 400mA.
Only swithcing Off/ON Flight mode resets WiFi module. A quite starange behaviour !
My question is anyone came across this problem and knows the solution apart of switching Radio module On/Off every time after using WiFi to save battery charge?
Thanks.
I heard this problem before and it should be fixed by flashing the updated stock ROM of htc or flashing the new onyx 4.6 ultimate.
Dont try Onyx 5.0 first.

My Elf is way too slow on stock ROM (official HTC version you mean as I understood) neither I need all the stuff from ultimate Onyx version. Micro version is OK for me.
Before I had similar problem with Blue elves v5.
Pity, the problem still there :-(
Before using onyx, im using blue elves too.
and everytime i had an issue like that, soft reset.
But after using onyx, its so easy.
@OP: How did you figure out the exact power that your phone consumes?

This can be done by a free software mentioned in first post ( acbPowerMeter)
search it in forums
Here is my power consumption usage.
WiFi - 2hrs
Normal usage, a day or 1.5 days.

I just bought T-Mobil from the secondhend shop.
It's quite cheap ad good for me.
After I leave it with charger along the night, in the morning it still 85%.
Another thing is the Battery status often reducing to ZERO and back to normal.(look ok but it's let the phone and BT off as well.)
Any idea for this?
Anybody ever met this before?
Need your help,
Maximum of Battery is 85%? I don't think so.
No, something wrong with your battery. Tell the retailer that the battery is faulty and never reaches 100%.

Blokes at Gaffar are IMHO, illiterates. AFAIK, no ROM introduced changes in battery monitoring How can a ROM make your faulty battery work nicely?
Here is the link of AKU3.5.1 ROM..
http://www.indippc.com/v3/index.php/topic,1079.msg6962.html#msg6962
I don't know why? but that's 100% now.
Very thanks for all discussion, after I post this problem here I go back to try another 5 or 6 Roms Upgrading.
I'm not sure is it about the Rom issue, But for now it back to normal.
My present is...
ROM version : 2.60.10 WWE
ROM date: 12/20/06
Ratio version : 1.15.00
Prorocal version : 42.51.P8
ExtROM version : -
I have tried many many ROM, so for now I can't remember this one is from where?
But very Thanks for your ROM...
It's not immediately 100% after finished the ROM upgrade, it still max at 85%.
But on the way I back home in the evening, I notice that the Battery step down more slow than ever.
And in this morning I take look at the screen, cool 100%.
I am huge fan of Dutty's ROM. Had v 1.7 1.9 2.1 2.3 and 2.6. Everything was always working smoothly and nice.
Last weekend I updated to V3 and then where wi-fi problem started.
It is like this right now:
When I set to Best Battery or to a "middle" position, the wi-fi basically does not work AT ALL. When I switch to Best Performance the wi-fi works but like 30% of speed and quality of previous versions.
At first I thought it was the radio rom, which during long process of updating in accordance to THIS guide took downgraded to 1.09.something. So I updated the radio to the newest 1.14.something but the problem is still the same.
Everything else works great but wi-fi works like 30% of its power;( WHAT IS WRONG? Has anyone experienced it before?
Of course I could try use Best Performance but then battery is sucked like crazy!;(
Thank you for help!

you think? I did HR after the rom update.... One is not enough these days?
OK, will give it a try...
i didnt do any hardreset and its working fine
reflashed, double HR and.... it helped
I still have NO IDEA what was the cause firstplace.
Thanks for help!
I didn't try this ROM yet. But, I'd like to have a try on Dutty's ROM! I will report if I will have caught this problem in the future. Sorry, cannot help you this time.
And why don't you report this at Dutty thread instead opening a new one????
I am using Dutty's V3 Rom and has no problem with the WiFi issue as stated.
More WiFi Fixes & Problems ?!!
Please excuse me if this is the wrong place to post this, but whenever I hear WiFi problem my ears perk up.
I have been experencing WiFi connectivity problems for while now; my HD would try to connect to an AP and after a ltte while of watching the "connecting" animation, the device would just quit with a warning message that it could not connect with the current settings..bla.bla.bla... even after it had connected to the same hotspot afew hours before.
Well, after installing Dutty's V2.9 (Highly recommended!) ROM the WiFi issues disappeared for 5 days. Mind you with my HD this is a record usually WiFi only works for a whole day at most, so I am guessing anyone experiencing problems with WiFi and Dutty's ROMS has a problem that might not be related to the ROM itself, as in my case the ROM actually "fixed" the problem, if only for a while.
By the way, I have just flashed the new (1.14) radio and the WiFi problem still persists;nevertheless I will keep testing anithing new that comes along and posting my results here.
I was celebrating too soon(((
After double HR I had to reset once more - had issuescwith ActiveSync.
Anyway I HR once again and the problem back again. The wifi actually does not work at all or work very slowly
Since not only me experience this problem I guess it is not the radio problem but the rom itself.
What is even more strange, I was able to resolve it once because it already worked one... the problem is I don't remember what EXACTLY I did to restore perfect wifi functionality.(
Sorry this is a bit off topic but where do I find the best battery setting, I have had a look under setting->power bu can only adjust the backlight.
Thanks

Have you tried upgrading to newer SPL ?
I have recently upgraded from 1.14 SPL to 1.56 HSPL and from 1.19.XX rom to 1.56.405.1(HTC official ROM UK WWE) - what is more imp here is there is also an radio update in this RUU - i guess from 1.09.XX to 1.13.25.24. Hope this solves your problem.
Keep posting your progress
Ok I'm using newest energy cht rom radio 2.12.50 and shubcraft froyo android build with 384 zimage....
Heres the problem that I have had all week my phone works fine when I am stationary minimal screen freezes great speed but when I get up and walk with my phone and try to use it the screen freezes almost every time then the entire phone freezes. I have also noticed this on elevator and when I step out of my car.. this is weird and I know it can't be just me as its been going on for a week now.
So to sum it up stationary best phone ever...walking phone dead and I wanna slam it on the ground.

try the desire v5's zimage, no freeze at all
Im having same issues,with all the version i have tried, including V5 aparently this screen freezing is a known issue and makes the use of Android in our HD2 very very frustrating.
ive upgraded my SD to a class 6 and still suffering from it
Im wondering if there is a program that causes it or its just the OS...
in any case We have to be patient ,im sure pretty soon the amazing developers will come with a solution.
might be a screen rotation issue
Just came back from street, again same issue.
I thought it may be the network connection that was affecting the phone, so i switched to Airplane mode and turn off automatic updates,still this didnt help...
so im beginning to think this is related to yes,either the screen rotation (maybe as we walk it does affect the sensor )or gps..

I've just learned to deal. Its better than SoD's or being in Winmo and having to pull the battery out.
I actually noticed it today as I went from a dark room to a very well lit room so Im with u guys it seems its either rotation issue or light sensor issue andvi have no doubt in my mind the devs will have it fixed in no time just didn't see it mentioned anywhere else so figured it was worth a mention. Thanks all I'm so glad I'm not alone on this one.

when in windows mobile make sure to disable all battery and back light settings and in android change blacklight settings and sleep setting to stay on
I am having the same issue - using ChuckyDroidROM + shubCRAFT CM6RC2, basically when I start moving or even moving the phone the touch screen becomes very unresponsive and sometimes even the hardware buttons don't function properly. At first I thought it was just my device until I saw this post...
Think its a bug with manusfreedoms 384mb ram enabled Zimage dident get this problem using past images.
sure it will be sorted next image release.
I thought i was alone in this case too !
We are not a lot with that screen touch lag, so maybe we did something wrong. Here is what i found so far :
-Changing build don't rix the problem
-tried another radio, another rom...nothing.
I tested 27/07 03/08 cotulla zimage, now manufeeedom 382mo zimage-nopc, the problem is still here.
changed from a class 2 to a class 4 and seems to be worse. (!)
You are right, it seems to be worse when i am moving from one room to another so maybe it is gsensor related.
Right now it is hard for me to type that text,
Don't know what to do... buy a class 10 sdcard ?
I just got my HD2 today and got android set up. I'm noticing the same thing as everyone else with the unresponsive touchscreen. It happens every time I tilt the phone to try to change the screen rotation. Usually hitting the hardware button allows it to respond once again, but it happens quite often.
hey hey hey first and formost i see u guys all hav the same issuse what i dont see is ur device info along with the rom, radio, android verison, and the location ur android is stored ... i have the lates verison of droid v5 also energy with cookie full and my radio is 2.8 i believe android is on the sd card and running smooth ... now that the intro is out of the way hav u guys read what was needed , reason askin i found the thread where the question and answer is... and yes u guys are the only ones... now please do a search go up to the first thread of android on hd2, and good day to u all
Wingtytn, can you be more precise in your answer ? I am a quite long user in Xda, always try to help when i know and i never ask a question wich have been answered somewhere. I don't think i have the noob profile you seems to write. If you think about formatting sdcard, of course i did. I have a 2.08 radio, latest shubcraft build with manufreedom 382mo zimage. My rom was changed to a light android dedicated one, the latest chuckydroid rom. Just don't know what else to do and waste a lot of time trying to fix that from myself.

The TS issue is kernel related, that's why using an older kernel say the no speedy one should fix it. This is also the reason why this issue is being seen over multiple builds.

Thanks a lot shu8i, i will try an older zimage than the 27/07's cotulla.
Edit : Mmh exact same problem with the 23/07 zimage Cotulla_zImage_CABDET_NOSPEEDDY. That is weird.
I will order a clas 10 sdcard and see what happen...
Try the game ”Runners”. It uses both the camera and the g-sensor and freezes mad anytime, anywhere. Huge affirmation to the idea it's a bug of the g-sensor's or otherwize the screen's drivers.
DuperMan
Me too with screen freezes, i had tried all builds and same result. I think this is a problem with SD access because i noticed more freezes as more apps opened in backgroud.
Try to calibrate the g sensor
Found something ...
try disabling auto-rotation feature (settings -> display)
It works perfectly for me now.
Can you confirm that works for you too?
Did you dind a way to calibrate g-sensor on froyo?
Why the auto-rotation feature hangs so much for us?

First of all I know screen freezing is a common problem that's not solved yet, but I really can't hold it any any any any more...
I got my HD2 just several days before(not t-mobile edition), now I'm using mattc 1.6b with 2.12 radio. Already replaced the original PPP with RMNET.
I don't know how about your situation, but my screen freezes about every 5 minutes, about 20 seconds a time, and if I turned my GPRS on(I'm not using 3G yet), it freezes almost EVERY 5 SECONDS... It's crazy
I can barely use my HD2 now, if there is no network connection, what could I do? I really don't know how to do, could somebody give me any advices?
It's a well known issue related to the G-Sensor. I can only recommend turning off screen rotation and trying other Android builds.
Edit: Here's a good thread to look at too, maybe one of these solutions might help you out. (link)
Thanks a lot, I'll try it.
try to boot the andoird as soon as you boot the WM it did help me or that issue
I was experiencing freezes with chunky droid, last night I changed to the latest vbn rom (full rom) (says he cooked in the power and performance tweaks) booted it calibrated g sensor, booted android no more screen freezes.. Using mattc 1.5c.. I didn't change my andoid rom..
Sent from my HTC HD2 Android
I am using the same rom. Infact the last few roms I tried I never experienced screen freeze - it works seamlesslessy perfect. It could be your SD card. Reformat it and reflash again
all the advice you need is in the thread for your build ...i promise

Reformat ur sdcard with SDFormatter V2.0, will solve ur problem...
remove the setCPU app and disable screen rotatation if you don't use it, i have no screen freeze at all after that
Yea. The setcpu gave me a lot of freezes too...
ok screen freezes is a known issue, and we do not need another thread on it.

Coredroid 1.4
Any sense based rom will have no high bluetooth drain
I use RAFDROID HD LIGHT SQ - without any problems with battery drain.
Thanks for your suggestion, I'll check both.
Surely, use sense based rom.

Can someone explain me, what exactly in a sense ROM fixes the issue ? I would really like to use a ROM without sense, yet without this issue either.

I too would like to know
I also don't know why, but I think this has connection with kernel version.
I have been testing for 2 days CoreDroid sense ROM, and I can confirm that battery don't drain when BT is on.
Can someone here please recommend a ROM that got neither the 60mA drain issue, nor the WiFi drops on standby one ? For those unfamiliar with the second issue, try pinging your device over WiFi and shut the screen off. The device is going to stop responding to pings if the build is affected by the issue.
any sense rom solves the high BT drain.. u can try using DL desire ROM..,
im using ozrom, its do quite good actually...
im using handsfree bt, n i can used for about 12 hours before my battery drop to 30pct..
