MSFP Push Email - HeartbeatMin

[ariele]

Digging on leaked ATT WM6 CapPackage.PXP noticed that a file called MSFPHeartbeat.prov.xml the parameter HeartbeatMin is set to 360.

Looking on MSFP Best practices, they suggest a HeartbeatMin set to 480 (8min). because a lower value could decrease battery life.

Found minHeartbeat key at \\HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Activesync with value of 360. I proceed to change it to 480 as MS recommends to see what happens.

I was wondering if changing this parameter to what Microsoft recommendations, can improve battery live on WM6.

Does anyone had worked with this before?

Let you know my results later.

No noticeable improvement.

There's not much difference between what MS recommends and what ATT set, unless your data connection stays iffy for a while, then the ping frequency starts its march downward to the minimum set in the reg. If you are in an area with a marginal signal for a long period of time you'd see an impact on your battery - but that's also caused by the radio itself upping its power as it trys to maintain a connection to the tower.
