android - HD Mini General

a constant in all our mini versions for Android is the poor quality of the battery in terms of duration and in terms of charging, and with equipment on or off, it would be better to focus their studies toward this major shortcoming of the Roma

yes battery is very important , much more than things such as sense 3.5 , ICS etc. indeed its the most important thing they can work on.
fortunately schlund is working on it now and we're eagerly looking forward to new update with new battery driver which he wants to release these days.

some good apps are improving the battery duration, i use juice defender and advanced task killer

Task killers are not a good solution. Android 2.3 is good enough to manage properly RAM memory. Most important for battery are your settings about "auto sync", GSM band, etc. There are topics here with good advices.
But i agree with the importance of the battery driver.

I installed and I have to say that MK 3.17 is very stable and the battery lasts much, for me is the best

Also i tried that ROM. There is no surprise MK 3.17 battery lasts much, cos nearly nothing is in it. no google apps, a broken sense 3.5... even there is no alarm & clock application on it.
Im actually .net developer and just a beginner with android (i still dont exactly know what google play is) and that rom was my first android rom. i thought whole android stuff is like that rom.
btw imo derefass' htc sense 3.5 build is the best anroid right now.

I thank all of our developers htc hd mini. I find that you continue to make new rom, cm7, CM9, meaning 3.5, but with the low battery. I was hoping that Schlund, who spoke after the last appearance of the new drive for the battery, did a new release but sadly nothing. Me with the battery so low I can not use Android but I still use wm, hopefully well ......

[Q] What does and doesn't work on Android?

I'm considering selling my MyTouch3g 32a for a HD2 device... But, I need to know some things before I make this move.
It looks like you can't yet replace the WinMo 6.5 with Android, so it has to run off SD. At least that's what I can infer. How does this effect performance?
Is battery life good on the HD2? My MyTouch3g can get about 17-18 hours off the charger.
What does and doesn't work on the HD2 running Android? Any quirks I should know about? ...Is it stable and reliable enough to be a daily driver?
Also since I'm on T-Mobile, I'd be looking for a T-Mobile branded HD2... does this matter?
Sorry for all the noob questions.
replacing winmo will be possible in near future by a nand rom. i guess noone knows by now what will work better with a nand rom. most people think that battery life time will increase dramatically, but i won't count on that...
for me, running android from sd-card has no disadvantages but as i said before, we have to wait for nand roms.
with new kernels like S1 or S2 from mdeejay battery life is great (for me). it lasts minimum 24 hours on normal usage.
as far as i know there is just one big and some small issues with android on hd2:
big one: data disconnects with ppp. this is nearly fixed for me with S1 kernel, but approx. once a day i still get data lost...
small one(s): very few touchscreen freezes (escpecially when trying to answer a call).
just now i can't remember other issues, but since about 2 months winmo is just used for booting android on my hd2.
my conclusion: android is a very well daily driver

Thank you for the info.
What does "data disconnects with ppp" mean? and if this happens, what do I do to resolve it? Throw into airplane and out of airplane mode?
you're welcome. as far as i know there are two internet protocols:
rmnet and ppp. because of low speed, rmnet seems to be vanished in nearly all builds. the good thing about it was stability! ppp has the opposite properties: very fast but till now a bit unstable.
data disconnects means that it's not down- or uploading any data while connection seems to be established regular. as you guessed right, you can handle it with airplane mode or by disconnecting and reconnecting internet connection. there is also a (semi)fix for that, which will reconnect for you automatically. but i'm pretty sure that this data loss problem will be gone in the near future (devs are still working on it).
p.s: sorry for my poor english, i hope you understand everything.
As for me it is very usable on a daily basis. I didn't think it was possible until I started flashing Android. Everything is great except for what fruchtfliege was saying. But even then, I have never gone back to Winmo.
fruchtfliege: is your LED notification light working properly? Mine only lights up once and that's it.
compared to that old 32a, the hd2 is an absolute monster!
theres an ocational minor glitch, but nothing like things were on ported roms on a dream/saphire....
its smooth sailing...

I'm using the MDeeJay evo 2.3 build and i haven't found anything not working at all. The battery last longer than it did on winMO. Been using this build constantly for about a month now, apart from the odd reboot I've had nothing but fun and games
I would personnaly recommend this build also.

Thanks for all the replies, this has been real helpful in my decision and will probably grab a HD2 when/if a WP7 rom comes out just to have the best of both worlds in my pocket.
One last question, I see the MDeeJay evo 2.3 build mentioned here, but I'n not a fan of sense. Is there a CyanogenMod port that's really stable?

i'm not sure which build mccm is, but if it's from mdeejay it SHOULD work (as posted in his kernel thread)
The LED notification light 'usually' works fine for me. Under 30% battery and it stays lit though
Only thing that doesn't really work is the camera on HD builds.
So far I've been disconnect free since I changed to S3 kernel from Mdeej - however I also disabled the stock tab and uninstalled my taskkiller which might've helped.

DFT - Next WP7 release with tens of fixes and tweaks - Expected When?

So,
any grapevine? Any info flying around about when the next edition of DFT / some other awesome developer is out on WP7 - HD2?
Well for a start you can try going to their site if u can read Chinese, or you can use the two alternative custom roms found
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=938083
oh yea, about those roms... do they fix battery issues? They both look the same
My battery has been running great and i think the battery indicator has been fixed.
Im running the 1.00.00 version since it was the first listed, didnt really look into the moonlight
Well, looks like this is will be the best for now! *sigh*
Anyone with inside info (in english ) on dft's next plans (with hd2 )

Anyone with Moonlight roms battery reports?
i am using Moon light now battery seems better than wm6.5
I´m using the moonlight ROM too, great stuff...
Guess it won´t take too much time to port the "official" update itself over to HD2, as the most difficult part seems to be done. But, the jailbreak thing might be another barrier... Chevron won´t work anymore as they say.
For me, the unusable camera is the worst part of the current build... I am perfectly fine with the rest, it´s much better than a stock WinMo ever was. As a matter of fact, it´s even good for everyday use.
I realy think that a new build from dft will come shortly after the official update...
For now I'm shortly back to Android until thoses three bug aren't corrected :
camera focus , loud sound (I think that done in moonlight) , and touchscreen

HD2 Stable Sense Rom, Decent Battery Life

Anyone know a good sense rom with decent battery life that will last over 12 hours while at work, or isn't there one out atm ? and also as a2sd onit
If you absolutely want sense, which I wouldn't recommend, 'cause it's buggy on HD2, you should try out Sense of Eclipse. People who can't live without Sense, say it's the best.
sense is not buggy on the hd2, sense3 is buggy but the older sense versions are stable for every day use

I am using the same ROM you have and would recommend changing the LCD density using a file explorer and change the build.prop file from 167 to either 217 (native density for HD2) or 240 which I prefer. I have really good battery life on this ROM. The only Sense ROM that I have used that has better battery life is Cmylxgo's Desire HD(2) ROM. Best battery life at a consistent 2-3mA on stand by. But I am on a TMOUS phone. Cmylxgo does have a ROM version for EU phones but I have never tried it to compare it to the US version.

The original OP asked the question I wanted, but I can't see a direct reply. Rather than start a new thread therefore can I ask the original question again? I installed the original Desire HD Nand OS but found it kept freezing (especially using Copilot) so went back to WinMo. So 6 months on, is there a stable Sense NAND ROM I can look at? And yes, good or bad I would still like Sense.
I can only understand simple replies (!) as I haven't been following discussions or developments for ages so will have to re-learn how to do all the upgrade thing. Handset still has MAGLDR 1.13 and HSPL.

Glad to be of help. Now you don't have to use that emulator that is sucking your battery dry. Not sure why Pongster likes that 167 density. It is definitely too small for me to read comfortably. I guess my eyes aren't as good as Pongster's.

Do take a look at the build i am using, here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=926507
I would recommend using V1.6, this build is really awesome, it has but a single flaw and that is copying files via usb-cable (which will make the phone reboot and endanger your sd card file structure).
There are workarounds (either using USB Mass Storage in CWM or using an app like Software Data Cable) so this isn´t really that hard to cope with
Other than that i would have to say, this feels like it was meant to run with the HD2, so if that´s what you are looking for
Battery life is great, no loss at all compared to winmo.
Whatevery build you would choose, i personally would go for froyo builds, gingerbread builds (sense builds at least) are a little too much for a stable reliable daily build, for now at least

There isn't one out there. The phrase "decent battery life" is totally out of place in a LEO forum and even more out of place in an Android forum. If you want decent battery life, get a BlackBerry.

i dont mean a battery that lasts like 4 days straight i ment *DECENT* the rom i use lasts around 18 hours which is fine for me as i only use it for work and charge over night alls i wanted was a sense rom that lasted 10hrs+, but as i said in the earlier thread my problem as been resolved

A suggest about ROM but...

Hello everyone, I'm new in this forum. Actually I use a RCMIX 3D (sense 3.5) ROM which is quite satisfactory in terms of battery consumption.
However, considering the fact that I do not go behind the latest developments in graphics, velocity etc, I looking for a new ROM that, of all, offers exceptional durability of the battery during daily use (data, internet, push email, sync a few). I do not know about what really orient me ... I accept all the advice possible, regardless of whether it is "sense" or not. Thanks
i personally Think the rcmix sense 3.5 rom is one of the best out there right now..if you are not satisfied try android revolution, thats sense 3.0 though

Is better for battery consumption?
I've read about HydrOG3n...
my dhd lasted about 2.5 Days on last charge, and that is pretty Amazing in my mind (with rcmix runny rom) but android revolution is a Little bit better on that Point i think..no superultrabig difference, but you should get a coupple of hours extra i think.
btw: i am coming from revolution to rcmix and the thing that made me stay on this one is the sense 3.5 (ofcourse) and the awesome rcmix setting menu that lets you change pretty much whatever you like, a bit like wannabe cyanogenmod =) really cool i think
imo, LM kernel roms (CM7 and miui based ones such as hydrogen) have excellent battery life. Stock CM7 also has OK battery life.
Radios should also affect the battery life

what are CoreDroid 8.1 rom specs?
How long does your battery with the full use of your rom?
cubases. Here are some screenshots of a few ROMs to help you see some visual differences.
And here is the up-to-date list of Desire HD ROMs here at XDA. That way you can click on each one to visit the thread and see any specs or info for yourself.
Personally - I use MIUI Freshly Squeezed at the moment as I really love the complete UI change. (Having said that I don't like the latest theme so much with the latest release but I change it back to the original or different theme at the touch of a button.) MIUI feels like a completely different device. That said - I try many ROMs and enjoy most of them unless I'm put off by the visuals/colors etc.

I think you go to wrong direction. I don't think there's a significant difference between the ROMs according to power consumption. Now I am not with CoreDroid 8.1 . I think it's with 2.3.4 kernel (don't think, that if was with 2.3.5 it will be 100% better) .
With full use every ROM will give you max 1 day. With a moderate use - 2 days with no problems with CoreDroid/RCMix/ARHD roms. The main consumption is from the lcd (ROM independant).
Some advices - switch off every antenna you don't use - BT/Wi-Fi/mobile network/3G . Especially switch off mobile network and set everything to manual update. 3G network also consumes a lot of energy. For calls 2G is fair enough.
Well if you need network access any time a day and automatic update - nothing you can do. You will charge the phone every day.
And other advice - charge the phone with USB cable (on a PC) at any time. Don't wait the battery to fall. Just watch to keep the memory in 20-80% (bellow 20 and above 80 it will use more battery recharge cycles).

I've flashed loads of Roms and I think miui has by far the best battery life. I use my phone ALOT and I'm getting through a whole day with one charge.
With most sense Rom's I was only getting through work. 7am - 5pm. I've read a few times miui freshly squeeze is better but haven't tried it yet. I'm happy with what I've got at the moment.

I'm using juicedefender ultimate with aosp support, you can configure a lot of option of the network usage!
On MIUI rom, I've used it a lot, great rom, nice UI(iPhone app management style with Samsung style screen customization) , a lot of customizable setting, nice theme and useful features and good battery life, I always suggest to try it!
Now I'm testing DeSenseNG based on official sense 3 for DHD (love htc app) and I think is very good room, smooth and with a little UV a really good battery!

[Q]

I have an HTC HD2 and i installed the energy rom with android froyo 2.2, my carrier is TMO US. I love the rom and android froyo, however, my battery drains very very fast! Is there anything i can do to make my battery last, or change android OS to newer version? If i need to upgrade android, can you show the steps and include attachments or link to downlable content. Thanks i appreciate the support, the site, and the XDA Development Crew.
Did you install the newest version of the Energy rom? (12-01-2011) I think it has android 2.3. If it was the release from a few days ago that was a known problem there was another release that came out today that seems to help with the extreme battery loss.

You realise that Froyo is outdated right? I personally would recommend a CM7 ROM, which can be themed to look like sense, or Gingerbread+Sense if you are really desperate for the Sense experience
Back on topic, try installing and using the apps JuiceDefender, SetCPU and CurrentWidget. JuiceDefender will save you battery through its magical powers (dunno how but it works) SetCPU will allow you to change the CPU speed (i.e. you can lower the screen off CPU speed leading to longer battery life) and CurrentWidget will allow you to monitor your battery drain.
One more thing to do is to calibrate your battery. This can be done by a simple app on the Android market (follow onscreen instructions) or search for how to do it here on XDA.
Oh, and finally you can't do much about it if you mean battery life with screen on, this is just always going to be poor, even at lowest brightness.
Thanks. How would i go about installing a better/newer rom if i already have energy rom? Also, i dont care for sense. I just want a cool, smooth, and fast (w/ good battery life of course) android rom? Whats are your recommendations? Can you guys guide me to the best rom running android for the htc hd2 win tmo. Links to threads and maybe best instructions for my case on installation of newer rom. Thanks guys for taking the time to reply!

That's what I'm using. I'm very satisfied.
I get around 3mAh consumption with screen off (standby).
I easily get a whole working day out of the phone.
