it looks good and ty for finding something for me, but i'm running a very customised ROM with SPB shell and some features of touchexperience and therefore do NOT have:
- HTC Application Service 1.14.1.0 or newer,
- Comm Manager 2.9.11.0 or newer.
so this app wont work for me...
i KNOW there is a registry tweak, seeing as i used it about 6 months ago...i just cant remember it...
any1 else?

Not sure if setting HKLM\Comm\TNETW12511\Parms\ HTCKeepWifiOnWhenUnattended =>0 would work but its got to be one of those keys in there....
Also, doesn't playing with the WiFi power management settings for best battery turn it off in standby?
Sorry, I really haven't messed with WiFi settings very much.

thanks Bruce. that's close but that just keeps wifi active when the device is ...well unattended.
more ideas ppl!

DHD on 100% CPU Usage

Just wondering after downloading OS Monitor and SeePU, it shows my phone running at 100% cpu all the time, the process taking it up is something called /init, can someone enlighten me?
Thanks

Also very curious! There seem to be a few people with this issue and not just on the HD. Could some Android wizard please take a look? There is not much to be found via google.

Funny, people said that hard resets and all dont do anything but i just restarted my phone normally and it just sits at 0%, i did unistall SeePU but dont think it had much affect on it, duno what was wrong with it

imo first thing if there is an issue like this is to get the RUU and reflash it.

if you are still experiencing this issue you might wanna have a look at this thread.i was on the same boat.very annoying.

Just set HTC Sense Sync from automaticaly (like 1/2/3/5 hrs) to Manually or push update ....

I wonder if you enabled USB Debug
on in Settings > Applications > Development
This will help the 100% CPU, which is a bug in HTC Rom

You need only a complete CALENDAR cache cleanered

GPS seems to send the cpu to 100% DHD
Had to enable to GSP to use the Car Panel app after that the CPU went to 100%.
Just disabling didn't work. I had to restart to get the CPU back down.

Best option: go to sync accounts and remove you htc sync account. I've heard thid helped many people

I was having this exact problem, I had automatic sync off, turned it on and changed everything to every 3hrs or so and what do you know, CPU usage dropped to 5-15% at home screen from 100% constantly.
Maybe that's why my battery died so fast today

As someone said a few posts before: activate USB debugging. Your phone will vibrate, will be unresponsible, after 10 seconds it will vibrate again and then your CPU usaage will go down like the titanic

I was also facing 100% cpu usage.
First i disabled htc sync and others leaving only the necessary accounts. And my CPU usage was unde control to 3-5 %
Now after two days cpu usage was 99%. I enabled USb Debugging, and exactly as previous post said phone vibrate two times and cpu usage is stable to 3 %.

[HOW TO] Increase Battery life of HTC Hero (Official 2.1 Update, sense and rooted)

I found some simple steps do the trick in increasing battery life of my HTC Hero (with Official 2.1 Update, Sense and rooted). Would like to share the same with you all. Shared the same with some other Sense users and awaiting for their feedback).
1. Turn off always on mobile data
2. Turn off Auto-sync(Yes, I know what you are thinking right now. But, I open twitter, facebook whenever I need them. I Don't keep them open and syncing all the time and this is same for Gmail app too)
3. Remove any weather widget from home screens (or atleast reduce the frequency of update)
4. Install a software called Battery booster(free) n do the following (don't expect it do wonders, it just allows you to do couple of settings)
@ reduce display brightness to a satisfactory level (I have kept it to 9-10%, doesnt make any difference if you indoor, and Hero's display is pathetic in outdoors anyway)
@ reduce automatic lock time (This one is irritating, Should say !) (optional, helps when you have a habit of keeping the phone unlocked and not using it)
@ have its widget on the home screen (to do some quick settings)
5. Install start up manager from market n remove all user apps from start up, doing this will avoid them getting started automatically (Yes, I didnt require any of the apps to be loaded at the startup, in fact I have disabled couple of system and HTC prop apps or services)
6. Reboot the phone n witness the magic (I have got more than a days battery after 3 hrs of music, an hour of browsing, fb twitter etc..)
7. (UPDATE) Have task killer to close all running apps before you go to sleep !
I see nothing that can harm/brick yo phone, but I am not responsible If it does..! I am just trying to help you all.

Good guide though!
Also worth saying that 'Data on Demand' is a great app. turns off 3g/2g/h connection while the screen is off. and is a lot less cpu intensive than juice defender and the like.
Also GreenPower is the same but it also manages wifi.
Annnnddd its pointless turning the GPS off in the settings. when it is on it will only use power if an app asks for your location (and then you will see that the gps is activated in the notification bar).
You get the exact same battery life leaving the phones gps set on but never open a gps requiring app as if you leave gps off and never use a gps requiring app.
At least it has for me on every rom Ive tried, and on my brothers official 2.1 hero.

Desire HD suddenly lagging big time

Hi everyone
I'm new to xda, so if my question has already been answered - please direct me there!
I've got a Desire HD running stock Android 2.2, but in the last few days its suddenly been running really slow, screens taking long time to appear, system hangs etc
I've got ATK, which i use to kill unwanted apps etc (am I doing this right?), but it appears to be 'busy' doing something in the background...
Can anyone help?
Matthew

First thing to do is uninstall the task killer, they will only cause you problems. Google it and you will find loads of info about why not to use them. Android does a very good job by itself.
Second, have you got usb debug turned on? if not turn it on, not surewhich version the problem was solved in so turn it on an see if it helps.
Good luck.
Blinky

yep Blinkydamo hit the nail on the head. Do those and it should solve that.
If you don't know where USB Debugging is.. go to Menu > Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging.

cheers, will give that a go

Xperia Z2 Ultimate Battery Saving Guide!

Okay, so I've noticed a lot of people that are only getting around 4-5hours battery life, which is actually pretty good but they crave more, esspecially when people like myself are getting over 7 hours screen on time
So heres a guide that I have made for you guys!
Who needs a bright display, Not you that's who!
Screen
So first things first is the screen, its what will take up more battery life then any other component of the phone, so, Turn that baby right down, I use Auto brightness which can be found in the quick settings in the pull down bar Or Settings > Display > Brightness > Auto
Try having a screen time out which is around 10 seconds or less will also help, the less time the screen is on, the more power you will save!
X-Reality
X-Reality Engine is a great tool that Sony put into most of their flagship devices, it basically adds contracts to photos and videos, It works well and looks good, BUT if you arent using it turn it off, you will notice a difference. To do this Go to settings > Display > X-Reality and untick it
Double Tap To Wake
I use this great feature all the time ( Although it can be unresponsive sometimes ) I believe the screen will keep active while its off, to obviously wait for your double finger tap, if you dont use this, disable it by going into Settings > Display and unticking it
Notifications, What Notifications?
Syncing is a BIG part of android and its ecosystem, its what makes a smartphone a smartphone, Disbale syncing by either pulling down the settings menu and disabling it or go to settings > Scroll down > Auto sync off, You will stop getting notifications but battery life will be far better, trust me
Wifi, Bluetooth, NFC, Data & GPS What are these things?
Wifi, Bluetooth and NFC, GPS all have their uses, and so does 3G and 4G obviously, who could live without those right?
Unfortunately they drain the battery, A lot of it !
Wifi uses the least amount of battery, for internet connectivity especially if you put it on Wifi Optimization, to do this Go to settings > Wifi > Advanced > and tick it
Also. Keep WiFi on during sleep should be ticked off if you haven't got sync on
GPS is on as standard on any new android phone, untick and watch your battery increase! Go to settings > location > and Untick
3G and 4G are great, But take up the second most amount of battery, If you have a 4G plan I suggest you finding out if you have good coverage because the phone is constantly scanning, If you have bad 4G coverage, put 3G on instead, itll save battery and you may even get better speeds! To do this pull down your notifications bar and hit Mobile data which will activate 3G or 4G to activate 4G
Although NFC Can be useful and doesnt drain to much battery, it does a little by leaving it on, Disable it by going to the settings > More > Untick NFC
Sony Even Include Battery Saving Settings? WHAT
Thats right, Sony Include settings to help you save even more juice
Stamina Mode
Stamina mode is great, dont ask me how but it just works. Go to settings > Power Management > Tick Stamina Mode and watch yourself get more battery life!
Also, I dont think people know this but if you actually click Stamina mode it comes up with an option to restrict performance in favour for battery life, If you dont mind it being a little slow here and there I suggest clicking it, thats how I got OVER 7 HOURS SCREEN ON TIME
I Believe thats it, Thanks for reading this guide, I really hope It helps
- J

Great guide! Thanks jack.
With settings really close to yours I'm up to 7.5 hours of screen time, and I still have 15% of battery left. And I only turned on stamina mode when I was down to 50%, so I'm sure I could get more!
(The "restricted performance" setting scared me at first but I really haven't noticed any difference to be honest)

No problem, I think everyone should take a look at this, and not just for the this phone but for most phones

To be frank, 4 to 5 hours screen on time is more than sufficient for me. If I buy a Ferrari, I don't want to drive it like a Toyota.

Why no a Nokia 3110 and have a one week battery?
SOT? Doesn't matter, there is nothing to watch on it!!!
Seriously. Thanks for the guide.
To be honest on a 700 € piece of technology we shouldn't take care of him so much just to use it!
But if you want or need 7.5 hours SOT I guess your suggestion is the only way.

Brilliant article! I just discovered Stamina mode for the first time. Always tried not to use it, but obviously it WORKS!

Getting 4-5 hours is great for me. It's a smartphone so lets use it instead of disabling everything. Just my 2 cents

Thanks for the suggestions! But I cannot live with auto sync off :laugh:
You got 7 hours battery life? I got 12 hours battery life only with stamina mode (while auto sync is on and xreality is on)

Hey
Nice work and I think it's almost complete. But what about Greenify? I think it's also a good way to save battery even with non rooted devices.
Nice work anyways
:good:

Greenify is only needed when you have *problem* apps that drain the battery !

Thats right, but not everybody got a clean install. So when there's an app which drains the battery it can be useful.

Just impressive with my Z2
