[Q] Charging speed - HTC Desire S

Dear all,
Does anyone knows which file in a Rom controls the charging speed for our device? Some Rom charge fast but some is charging slow. I would want to fix this thing on my current Rom as it charges slower than other Roms. Thanks.

There is absolutely NO such thing as "ROM controlling the charge speed". What you have misunderstood is that a new ROM needs some charging/recharging cycles to understand the battery capabilities. Again, nothing to do with Wiping battery stats etc. Search in the forums for battery stats after new ROM and you will find your answer.

Coredroid battery issue

Battery drainage issue on the coredroid 5.4.
Before my coredroid didn't drain battery like a stock inspire rom. When my phone is on stand by mode, it would drain like normal inspire. When its being used, it drains even quicker.
I did a full wipe then flashes the full rom 5.4.. didn't change radio or anything else.
Anyone having this issue?

What you can do is charge the battery to 100%, then wipe battery stats in recovery. Also try juice defender, ultimate juice is worth the money. Post your results later

I too realize not much different from stock rom when using Coredroid 5.4. First was using GB version thought that's the reason, flashed with Froyo still notice the same. Probably gonna try different roms tonight. Besides, my notification light not flashing anymore during stand by mode, make my phone looks like turned off when screen is off.
Keep in mind that you might not have the best battery life with coredroid gingerbread, while therw have been some major tweaks, most of the extra battery life comes from roms with custom kernels. Kernels is where most of the battery tweaking happens. If you want good battery life your going to,have to stick with roms that have custom kernels ie. Cm7 builds, froyo builds, and miui builds.

While I can't comment on CoreDroid's battery useage - I can say that I noticed a significant difference between the stock Sense ROM and CM7. Take it for what it's worth but I was pleased.

I've been wondering what this does exactly - when wiping battery stats through Recovery? Is this necessary to do often (between flashes of different CM7 versions)? I've flashed twice since rooting - almost a month now. Should I do this next time I charge? Just curious...
i just did a 2nd full wipe and the battery results are the same...
Not trying to be mean...
But am i typing to blind people? Read what i said about kernels.

Help with Roms, Karnels, Etc..

ok so i got my charge 2 days ago and am rooted with Gingerbread leak,
so i have some questions.
First: is there roms for gingerbread? because i couldn't find any.
Second: what kernels are there for GB? can i use PBJ?
Third: now ever since i got the phone it drains batter pretty quick with everything off. and hardly using it maybe about 20% per hour. i tried undervolting with Setcpu but wasn't successful, so what app do you guys recommend to undervolt the charge? or any guides to do so?
thanks,
Check out the development section. Gummy Charged GBE is great

I did, thanks for the reply. now i have voodoo and on the recovery sais enable 100mhv something like that. is that so i would get more battery?
You can't undervolt on gb because its a leak meaning no kernel source.
I think setcpu will let you underclock which would give better battery life but reduce performance considerably.

Whenever you change roms, you should calibrate your battery. It works wonders

You need to return to stock, then fresh Odin GummyCharged GBE 1.9RC2.3 if you want Gingerbread as it's really the only modified Gingerbread rom. Eclipse is available, but i'm not sure if the dev still supports it or not. The quick battery drain is something that goes along with the fact Gingerbread is a leak. GummyCharged team has done a wonderful job with minimizing this drain. I have found it actually has better battery life than Froyo. That's just my personal experience.

Battery Capacity

I am using Battery Monitor Widget Pro with standard battery. As i know standard battery on Desire S is 1450mAh, but in this program it is shows that battery is 1600mAh. I try this app on Wildfire S and it show 1230mAh, like it shoud be. So is it just me or somebody else notice this?? Thanks
Hey!
Mine shows 1450mAh! Maybe wiping battery stats will help... what rom are you using?
Same here, mine shows 1600mAh. Using CM7.

[Q] sensation battery

Hi I'm new to sensation dev and I have a quick question I'm use sense 4.0 Rom with faux123 kernel I was just askingif there is a battery mod or something to help save battery?
Oh yeah the Rom is ordroid 8.6.5 4.0.3
Sent from my Sensation 4G
I think there is but I'm not sure of link but wanted to ask are you still stock battery? It helps a lot if you upgrade to a longer lasting battery say like Anker. I use Anker and its made a huge difference in my battery life. Also after flashing rom, make sure battery is at 100% then plug into charger, go into recovery, wipe battery stats, then unplug. This helps a lot. Also make sure things like sync is turned off for things you don't need, stop non needed running applications in the background, turn off blinking notifications , turn off feedback vibration ect, make sure backlight is minimum brightness, doing these things with a better battery will really help you! You will be surprised how much more time you get with Anker battery. I wish you the best! Hope you get the better battery because is really made a difference !
ps I'm running Ordroid 8.6.5 also

Yes there is. Look in my signature and chose the power-saving option from that page it leads to. It is extremely good and although it only ever uses one core I can't notice a different in speed, only an epicly increased battery life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Battery life (vipers 1.4.1)

Hey i use the 1.4.1 rom sensation and my battery down 2% on 2% very fast
If I use an hour the battery goes below 50%
which will be the problem?
Thanks
You might be getting a wakelock. You can download "better battery stats" and run it and it will let you know which app is causing the wake lock if any. If no wake lock is present, could be time for a new battery. But first see if wake lock is happening. This could be draining the battery. Read a bit about wake locks. You can google it. Hope this helps you out. Best of luck. Here is a link to the apk better battery stats. It also explains wakelocks.

Yes seems the problem is your battery. No wakelocks. Try another battery and see how it goes
Yes, because your not having any wake lock issues as above post suggested it's time for a new battery. You can get a extended life battery for under 20 dollars. Most people prefer the Anker battery. People have had great luck with that battery. Hope this is helpful. Best wishes

One suggestion before you purchase any new battery
Make a Nandroid Backup of your current ROM and install ARHD with Stock kernel and check...if you get the same results then definitely you need a new one....and if your battery life is good again then you know what to do
Hope my idea works..... finger crossed...:thumbup:
Edit: After this experiment.. let me know the results

Try the anker... I just got one and it's much better. Charges take only 2 hours from empty. I had charge times of 6-9 hours before I switched. Here's my recent stats as of this charge with viperS 1.4.1, faux kernel 10b7 at 192min, 1566 max. 594 screen off...

You can use the custom Roms,but as compare to stock Rom and stock kernel, it consumes more battery..

1 suggestion.... after installing any ROM, give some time to sattle down the ROM as well as kernel... min 3-5 full battery cycle... means u can stay it with 4-5 days...only 1day will never give u the correct result...
