hi
I have a touch pro and would love to change to the HD...IF the battery life on a touch HD is good enough.
I've read its good on 3G phone reception, but if I wanted just a phone I'd buy something cheap and small. I want to surf the web,watch movies, use tomtom.
Simple question; if the phone is charged to 100%, then I watch a movie lasting 2 hours, what will be left in the battery, if anything? I'm hoping someone with the HD already can help me
thanks to anyone who can answer this and apologies if its already been answered...I couldn't find it anywhere
Good question... I've not done that, but I have had it running with the wi-fi enabled for about an hour and 45 minutes whilst surfing the web and using the YouTube application. It didn't run down more than about 20 percent?

i got the device, charged the battery and played around with it for some hours. tested the gps watched the small movie which is on the HD some times, used opera an wlan, looked at weather and stocks and played around with the interface and programs some more. sending sms emails, and doign a call. with bluetooth
then i left it on my table from 23:30 to 9 in the morning, stood up and played around with it until 11.
battery status: 90%
Any chance there will be a 1500mAh battery for the HD? Or is there already one out there?

My guess is Mugen will provide one sooner or later.
wow! many thanks everyone. that sounds really positive
I did a little test of my own today. I left the Bluetooth, Data connection and Wi-Fi on whilst it played the 2 pre-loaded videos on repeat in Full Screen. The brightness was on default, the dimming backlight was disabled and the sound was at about 2%. I didn't have a way to check the percentage of the battery, so I just counted the bars. Fully charged, it has 10 bars.
After one hour of playing to itself, the battery had gone down to 8 pieces. After another half hour, it was down to 7 pieces. After a total of two hours after the repeat had been begun and everything turned on, it was still on 7 pieces. So yes, you can watch a 2 hour film, then blog about it, then call a mate on a video-call to chat about it before taking pictures of things that were around you as you watched!
A bit extreme, maybe, but it will last.
that's pretty nice battery life what kinda battery is in there account i wonder if that will be the same for a touch hd pro (i know i'm a dreamer)
i got it this morning, and kept using it WITHOUT recharging it up to now!

Thanks for the advice.
And does someone know if there will be a seller in switzerland/germany?
Or what such a battery could probably cost?

No need to worry about availability... they offer free intarnational shipping
As for the estimated cost.....
Thats good news!!!
So looking forward to a 3000mAh Battery for my new "preciousssssss"
Hope wont cost more than 100$...
Is there a maximum call duration limit on the G1?
Ok sometimes when im talking to my girl I fall asleep on the phone with her and have noticed that lately my phone hangs up the call at around 1 hr and 50 min. It has been doing this ever since I updated to haykuros latest rom. Before that I had JF RC33 and it would hang up at exactly 4hrs everytime. When my girl had a G1 she had the stock RC30 and it would hang up at 54 min everytime.
My question is has anyone else noticed a max call duration before your phone automatically hangs up or is it just me. Could it have to do with the radio updates?

Maybe she's the one hanging up? Seriously though, your girlfriend talks to much if she can blather on for hours without any input from you.
The radio has problems where it drops your call. It's a normal glitch.

Really? I regularly call my parents and have conversations over an hour (sometimes 2) long and have never experienced any "bug" with the radio. From OTA pre-sale all the way to today.

haha no im pretty sure she doesnt hang up
My phone hangs up if I'm on hold too long. Pretty sure it's a safegaird thing so you don't burn up all your minute by accident.
Ps I think its tmo, not the phone.
T-Mobile shuts your call off after 4 hours, so maybe the call is just dropping, or you drooled on the hang up button

Try it out!!
He said 1.5, then 4, then .75. At any rate (from what I read) it's the same time interval every time.
I just crossed the 350 hour mark and shooting for 1000 hours of uptime. This started as an experiment to see how long it would take without a reboot for the phone to slow down. So far, it's still running as fast as it typically does after a reboot.
How about you guys? I think I'm going to try and see if I can hit a month without rebooting.
I'm at the 250 hour mark now and the only reason it's not higher is because I've run it completely dry of battery a couple of times
edit:
Getting my 1600mAh and 2800mAh batteries from Seidio today though, so the counter is gonna reset again ;(
Iam on 380 hours of uptime in writing moment

With those new batteries how much longer can you expect to be able to use it say with standard use?
Mine lasts a full day mostly so far. Just curious.

I didn't look at mine. I normally don't have uptime of more than 24 hours since I frequently have to reboot to check the function of my morphs.
I've had about 280 before. Since I've rooted though, there's a bug in the superboot that I've done that wrecks the phone every other day or so. Something with memory card access. I'm trying to find a rock-solid ROM with himem and root. Speaking of that, suggestions?

This is the wrong thread for that, but I'd suggest trying all of them and testing yourself. That's part of the fun.
305 hours, had to reboot due to sms/signal issues.
Once and a while I will have service but will be unable to send sms. Weird.

No fair, you're on stock!
(I'm not speaking of stability here, but for those of trying new things we're always flashing )
I'm currently at 117 hours on Modaco's Desire Alpha10
Personally I'd say anything over 1 week (168 hours) is just awesome for me.

A little off-topic but ok. It's just simple math really, the standard battery is 1400mAh. The 1600mAh would therefore last 14% longer and the 2800mAh battery would last twice as long as the 1400mAh battery.
I'm at 630 hours right now. Probably the most I have seen it at but yeah, I don't really check that much. Do I win a prize?

No, but you're the man to beat.
btw, I Just posted a new DroidUptime version. Now it supports Android 1.5 devices.
270 hrs, then it rebooted by itself.

Can't you plug it into the wall jack so that you don't loose power while changing the battery? I can do this with my tilt. My previous phone had a switch on the battery door that shut it off. I'm not sure about the N1.
Mine is at 1171 beat me?

Lies.
That's 100% impossible.
nvm, seems as if people either don't care or won't believe it.
Too bad the automatic assumption with that screen is it won't work well on battery life. Still worth it for that great phone.
not to say that his isnt possible because i think it could be. i would have liked to see the other screen because mine says right now up 108 hours awake time 30 hours.. when u hit battery use it'll say how long it was unplugged for.
nvm, seems as if people either don't care or won't believe it.
93 hours ?!??? !??? ! whaaaaaaaaat
MikeBrWade said:
Sure, what other screen? Crud you probably mean the screen after this one.. I just looked through all my screen captures and I dont' have one! Urgh. Well guess I have to run the test next weekend again. For now I guess you can believe it or not

touch battery use right above the uptime that screen shows how long its been unplugged for

Well like I said since it shutdown after 92.75 hours.. I can't do that =( However I will rerun the test again at a later date so I guess it's a choice to believe or not now

Hey I believe you. I was able to pull off 40 hours on a stock rom with actually 1 hour of the screen on, and I still had 30% left.
very impressive! it makes my 11-15 hour days look rather crappy lol
From what I have learned, the up time and what not is how long your phone has been up without a restart. Not how long you have had it for a single charge.

Unless you know you restarted it the moment you unplugged.

my point exactly the next screen when you hit "battery use" is the actual uptime since it has been unplugged .. if that were the case i could be like i just got 108hours of battery life and still going i'll believe it you get 90+ hours since unplugged
So if I turn everything off and put the phone asleep and not use it, it will last 90+ hours?
Am I understanding this right? If so whats the point? My phone isn't much fun or use when its asleep

Just charge the phone, kill all the apps, leave it under the bed and come back in a week. It should work.
Seriously whats the deal of the 90 something hrs?? Go get a car battery and maybe you get a month of non-stopping usage.

Hahaha. I believe it and think it's cool, and its good research. People are so nasty in this forum.
Yes you wouldn't want to use these exact settings and not use the phone much to get 90 hrs of battery life, but this is RESEARCH that can help us figure out what settings do or don't help battery life. If he used the phone a bit it might last a day and a half, or 2 days.
Thanks for checking things out, don't let the haters bring you down.

Has nothing to do with people not caring or believing it. Was just the picture you posted as your "proof" was a meaningless one, just as many have mentioned. Example; Look at Danon.Brown's pictures...if we go by what you posted, we see he has 108 plus hours of usage when in he's only been unplugged for seconds. Great you got your 90 plus hours on it...but what about the time actually unplugged and usage the phone has seen? If one does nothing but let the phone sit idle...it's easy to get 2 plus days out of a charge.

Can you post system panel screenshots?
I'm at 19 1/2 hours right now with 30% battery left and I thought that was pretty good (couple hours of robo defense, couple hours of web browsing, a bunch of movie trailers on Flixter, hour or so of music, a bunch of texts and a couple calls from my mom). Getting nearly 93 hours out of this phone just seems a little difficult to believe under normal use. But then again, maybe I just have more work to do.

I can get my phone to idle at an average loss of 2% per hour with wifi and phone radios on. I see this as completely plausible with minimal use and still being able to receive phone calls texts and emails.

Hi everyone!!!

Let your phone run for the day then run the app at the top there's a line saying awake and asleep if there's a lot of awake the top app showing is possible the one draining the battery
Hope that makes sense :silly:
