HTC S710 Charging problem..

Hii guys i have started facing a strange problem with my htc s710..
My Vox is nearly 1 year old first of all my battery back up is pathetic lasts for just around 15 hours after full charge and just using for talking.
Secondly it takes a hell lot of time to charge it nearly 5-6 hours.
I am fed up of it could you please tell me is it a hardware or s/w issue!!
I am using an older version of Dr. Gonzo's Rom
One more thing as my phone is still under warranty i want to know that if i take my cell with this cooked rom to the service centre would my warranty be intact or i should first flash it back to the stock rom and then take it there so that if there is some h/w issue i can get it fixed soon.
Please Reply friends as my warranty will get over by the end of the comng week..

I experience similar problems. My charging takes very long now. But the capacity doesn't seem to drop. During my vacation I got the Vox through 3 days without recharging, BUT I didn't use it very much obviously (on rose v0.3)! But then again I charge it for an hour and then I look in power management and it didn't charge 1 %. And that is the strange part^^
I am going to buy a 1300 mAh battery since it has the same size as the standard one.

I was thinking of going for a 2250 mah battery would it fit into my vox??
I guess their shouldn't be any problems except it being a little extra bulky!!!!

With those batteries you also get an extended back cover that sticks out.

So will they be buldging out from the back of my vox??
Was Thinking of getting them from megacapacity .com

You can see the back cover behind the battery. The normal one is flat!

One more thing can just tell from where i could get a 1300mAh battery that can be shipped to india as i am in india.???

If I am not wrong, your warranty will be void . we are in India, you know ^^. better search this forum and get the 'Official' ROM downloaded and flashed before taking it to service centre. Best of Luck

I found the 1300 mAh battery on eBay. But I am in Germany so this is a different thing! It was produced somewhere in the EU!

The extra capacity battery + extended door really sucks, it makes the Vox uncomfortable to hold. I have 2 of them due to a BoxWave screw up and I actually never used them because of how it felt with them on. I carried an OEM in my wallet and it was sufficiant.

The 1300 mAh battery is a PolarCell Li-Polymer battery. Maybe you can find it somewhere else, I didn't!

Eten.hu used to have it, for some reason it's gone now though. I'll try and find somewhere else for ya.

Thanx h4waii if you could find it for me!!!

I experience the same problems as you guys with the original battery...I just bought a Polarcell Li-Po battery 2 days ago from Ebay. It can be easily found at http://myworld.ebay.de/wannsee-electronic/. Until now, it works fine, but in the past I bought several crappy Ebay batteries which failed after two weeks. So lets hope that this Polarcell is really better!

You probably bought the same I ordered yesterday. It should be here tomorrow, I'll post my feedback later during the week!

Well I received the battery yesterday and so far it looks pretty good. I charged it over the night and right now there is still 88% left which is very good!

I just bought a battery replacement, 1100mAh. Charged it yesterday, used it over night for pictures and videos, surfed the web for one hour and a half, talked 15 min, and now only 52% remained.
I think it`s ok.

To all users of Vox in india,
Has anyone tried purchasing new battery from the following site?
http://shopping.rediff.com/shop/pro...rfnbr=10345357&source=browse&frompg=Batteries
One of the shop dealer in Bangalore is telling me it would cost 1800 Rs.(which is quite expensive!!).
Please let me know if someone is successfully bought from the above link, so that i can also place the order ...
Thanks,

I just sent an email to Wannsee, where I purchased the Polarcell 1300. I'm not satisfied, I think it is a cheap battery which works quite nice in the first weeks, but the capacity seems to drop significantly after a couple of cycles. No problem for an Ebay trader, because usually feedback is given after a couple of days of having received the item.
Let's see what they will tell me

HTC Desire Extended Battery

As much as I love my new Desire, one thing I am not so keen on is how fast it is possible to rip through a fully charged battery.
I have already found that a fully charged Desire that is unplugged when I leave for work at 7am will need a charge by around 3pm!
This may be due to my usage, but what's the point of having a smartphone unless you use it to the max
Previously I had a Raphael which had a similar problem, which I solved by getting an extended battery from eBay.
Extended batteries for the Desire seemed pretty scarce on eBay - most of the ones on there being for the Nexus one which has a slightly different backplate. I did find one for £13.99 that was shipped from Hong Kong, so I thought it was worth a try.
Around 2 weeks later this arrived in the post:

}
First impressions were good, the backplate felt pretty solid and has a nice rubberised finish to it.
It was promptly fitted to my Desire:
Again I was impressed with the quality, the backplate fitted perfectly - no gaps or bulges:
It also passed the most important test; not bursting into flames when i plugged the charger in!
As you can see it doubles the thickness of the Desire, but its not too obtrusive in my opinion. As a bonus you can actually stand the phone on its side for video watching
Today was the first full day of usage, and so far it has been running for 14 hours and the battery level (Using Battery Indicator Pro) is at 14%.
That includes 97 texts sent, around 20 minutes of calls, 10 minutes using RAC Traffic app (GPS), 10 minutes using Google Maps, 30 minutes with the WiFi on using VNC to connect to a machine at work, say 10 minutes of browsing, and randomly checking emails & Twitter throughout the day. (sync was turned off)
This is pretty much exactly what I wanted - being able to go a whole day without a charge, and still use the phone as I pleased. The trade-off is a slightly bigger and heavier phone but I can live with that
If anyone wants I an extended battery I heartily recommend one like this.
Is it ok to link to eBay sellers? As I don't mind providing the link.
Now i'm off to (finally) charge my phone...

Thanks for the review, ebay seller links are fine or just give the item number/seller? How about in the pocket, it must feel heavy and bulging out?

I was thinking about getting one of these, thanks. As above, same question really does it make it feel considerably heavier?

What about this one?

Although the back cover looks better people on another forum have said that this battery is not that good and seems to not give any extra juice compared to the original. Check my posts about it here, I would not get that battery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=673449&page=9

Eurgh, that back cover looks terrible.

This is the one I bought:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2500MAH-EXTEN...UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL&hash=item4150ccfef7
According to my kitchen scales the Desire weighs 165g with the extended battery fitted.
It doesn't feel considerably heavier, and still fits fine in the back pocket of my jeans.
Currently it's been running for 17 hours and has 32% left

I have one too since yesterday exactly the same battery. I must say I havent seen so much different so far. Maybe slighter better but I thought it would be much better than that.

only 14Ł ?

£14 you mean?

I've really had no problems with the battery. It's much better than my old G1, and I use my phone constantly to check e-mail, twitter and play games during smoke breaks. The battery lasts from 9am til about 10pm. I'm using OpenDesire but haven't tested other ROMs.

this is medium to low usage and i get 2days with default battery.
would put such cover crap on my desire

I dunno what's the big deal with those big batteries? The phones original battery workes all fine. Just turn off all widgets, like "Mobile"-internet widget who drains most power of them all, and you'll survive for next 6 upcomming days - with one charge! And before U think that big battery is "good", maybe u shall take a look here: http://batteryboss.org/

I can easily do that with my normal battery. This looks like crap. Did you even train your battery when you just got your Desire?

Bought an extended one with 2500 mah at ebay.
Use it for about two days.
My results is about 30 hours of usage with icq always on, some calls, refresh mail and weather.
Not so bat, but i've expected more...

The cover looks horrid - I'll stick to charging my phone each night thank you!!

Adding maybe 1 hour of battery life with a battery that is more than likely crap quality and will degrade after 1 week AND adding a back cover that makes the phone look like crap?
No thanks.

Hi there, do you still have the link to the extended battery you bought?

I'd love to have this battery, but then again I'd hate to damage my beloved Desire without my silicone case, so to be or not to be, eh?!
by the way, to save battery, hold power button till some noptions come up, at the bottom there is an internet option, just click that to turn internet connection off whenever you are not useing the phone! gives me 2 days with heavy use (gaming, music etc)

Makes that @ss look fat!

Horrible battery

I'm having a horrible battery life. I don't know if its pyro-ice or just the phone. Although I've been battery problems since I got the phone. Any suggestions?

There is a break in the life because the phone shut off. Its been happening since I got a new htc battery
Pyroice mt4gs

If your on the stock battery then that is normal dude.

Get either a Mugen or an Anker.
Delivered via candygram for Mr. Mongo.

I figured bit I just wanted to ask some people who know what they talk about.
Pyroice mt4gs

i have the stock battery that came with it and have great battery life on 1.0.3. Where did you get your battery? Could you have gotten hornswaggled? Also have you tryed recalibrating your battery using the advanced option in clockwork or the Recalibration app https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration

I have used the battery calibration app. Should I try doing it in recovery?
Pyroice mt4gs

I'm pretty sure they do the same thing, recovery verses recal app. If you haven't already, i would drain it completely and then let it charge with the phone off overnight to ensure it's full. and then run recalibration. In the meantime Ill pay attention to what i get on a daily average and we can compare. You shouldn't be > 70% after 3 hours doing nothing.

I'm on pyro ice with the stock battery and have the same problem. I just stay near a charger!

How long does a full charge last?
A lot depends on signal quality as well.
If I dnt use the screen too much I can get around 18-23 hrs on good signal, but worse with bad.

I've had pretty good luck with the Anker. I'm using Juice defender too. Usually make through pretty long days.
Sent from my Bulletproof_Doubleshot 1.1 using Tapatalk

If I actually let it die I could get 5-6 hours. If I don't use it at all I get more. I called htc the guy told me its normal to get this kind of life. I think that is unacceptable.
Pyroice mt4gs

I get a max of 13hours on mine. No matter what I do I cant make it any better. On stock battery though.
Is the Anker 1900mAh battery that much better than the stock? I've seen people report at least 20hrs on heavy usage.

signal quality, background apps, also im using only one connection type at once only and switch manually between 2G / 3G mobile net.
and yes, im on anker, ordered the two + charger package... but just be aware those who have it, the UK dealer is resending me a new charger, as they tell that anker warned them its dangerous to charge through the USB part of anker charger, at least with those that were traded out in december for me...

I think when I get paid I'm going for the 2 anker batteries and charger.

I do just about the same. Flashed with the ExtremeUV kernel, though. Given our horrible network and no 4G, i usually just stick to 2G because 3G causes my phone to heat up. When am at home I switch to wi-fi. All my setcpu profiles are on powersave mode except on call.
i went through the battery recalibration process too, set my brightness setting to manual 20% during the day and 0% in teh evening.
I can't possibly think of anything else to increase those hours.
I will be ordering one of those ankers. I guess the stock battery will make a good secondary battery.

Every time you let this type of battery completely die, part of it will never work again and dies forever.
Much better to stop at 2-5% then go to full empty, you hurt your battery for no good reason.
To properly break in a new battery, you need to bring it to full, then to that 2-5% mark 4 or 5 times in a row, it exercises the cells and gets them ready to work.
This may be helpful:
Everything you wanted to know about Li-Ion batteries but were afraid to ask!
Edit:
And this:
Battery:
- Spare batteries for the MT4GS? Anker for the win!!
- Mugen Power batteries (1800mAh and 3600mAh) for MyTouch 4G Slide?
- Anker or Mugen???
- Generic 1800mah batteries from Ebay?
- Can we use Sensation Seidio batteries?
- external battery pack! Awesome!

Try an Anker battery. I heard they are reliable. Costs 10€ a piece in german amazon, and they're good.

Yes all batteries should be flat...Did you try new battery with different ROM ? Maybe you are heavy user and you overheat your battery(To much time on phone,you are using your phone while charging etc..)you should check you battery temp when you are on the phone (dial *#*#4636#*#* and go in to battery info) and please use your original htc charger if you do tests with new battery and different rom ... If is the same maybe you have hardware issues..
This is just my opinion

1100 mAh battery

Hi, did anyone try 1100 mah battery for Huawei Watch 2? I found it on aliexpress, stock battery is 420mAh and it's not enough for a normal use. 1100 mAh should be better but i'm scared it can burn or damage the watch? Anyone has been more brave than me?

Well, nobody answered, but I can tell you it's 100% scam.
Physically it's impossible to build such small battery with such capacity.

It's interesting that this seller has sold 39. But they sell HW1 and HW2 1400mah and 1100mah respectively. Their batteries are a lot more expensive then the regular 420mah batteries. SO it does make me wonder if these are higher capacity batteries.
If there is room for a slightly thicker and bigger battery than the original then it is possible to archive a higher capacity. Though 1100mah seems pretty ridiculous I would be curious to know what the true capacity is.

I ordered it, will test

I ordered it too and it arrived yesterday.
I installed the battery but I broke one of the plastic luggs off the watch that allow the strap to clip in so all my testing so far is in "off wrist-mode" which disable's the AMOLED hafter a period off time. I am making this clear as my watch is showing me i am likely to get 3-4 days of usage. Previously it was 1-1.5 days. This all made me very excited. However I ran some debugging tests on ADB, specifically:
adb shell
dumpsys batterystats | grep "Capacity:"
Estimated power use (mAh):
Capacity: 410, Computed drain: 114, actual drain: 65.6-69.7

It's not reassuring to see the capacity listed as 410mah. I assume the watch reads the capacity from the battery itself as opposed to capacity being hardcoded in the rom/os. I suspect because it's a new battery that the health / capacity it much better than the older (4yr older) battery which is replaced. But also because the watch is "off-wrist" I am going to see better performance.
As for the second command above I am little unsure how to interpret it. i thought maybe these were reference to total and current mah
POWER_SUPPLY_CHARGE_FULL=408
POWER_SUPPLY_CHARGE_NOW=342

My first test I left it off my wrist and it lasted 4 days. But I think when it's off wrist it goes into power saving mode because it doesn't need to detect heart-rate (if enabled) however I still felt 4 days was an improvement.
But then I left the watch battery flat for 2 months. Fixed the lugged and started wearing the watch again. The last 2 charges have lasted about 2 days. Which is similar to what I was getting with the stock battery.
I am unsure if leaving the battery flat for 2 months has done any damage or change to the capacity. But since it was a new healthy battery I imagine it hasn't. Perhaps I need to leave the watch off wrist again and see if I get 4 days still.
I guess results are still inconclusive at this time.

Please keep us posted with the testing.
Double the battery capacity would be the best improvement.
Thanks for sharing!

I side loaded accubattery which calculates the mAh drain vs percentage of battery added whilst charging. I have only run it down once but the results were better. 481 vs 410. Still way off 1100mAh but I'll see how it goes the next few drains.

Well, nobody answered, but I can tell you it's 100% scam.
Physically it's impossible to build such small battery with such capacity.

^Spot on.
OP, just be glad it's seems within the OEM capacity range...

i have also changed the battery with an standard capacity one, and got the same results. however lost the heart rate monitor :-( and couldn't identify why....
