tytn battery life

---

yo homies

just wondering what sort of batterylife are you getting out of your tytns.

post your times like this

wifi--
media playback--
phone--
GPRS--
anything else you care to mention--

cheers Ganon

firstly bought my 838pro (dopod variant) less than a week ago, so have not gone through everything yet
wifi - yet to try
media playback - little
phone - 2hr+ per day
GPRS - yet to use (did play with the videophony a few days back)

Battery was recharged about 3 days ago, so its ~3days I guess...

One thing to take note is the battery indicator is bit querky, the level is scaled on a 10% rate, eg 100%->90%->80% etc

Battery Seem to last for a bit m ore than a day depending on usage.

I believe that it has the stardard/average PPC phone battery power longetivity but the battery reports every 10% instead of 1% is inacceptable...

Battery Indicator

---

Does anyone know how modify the battery indicator to run at 1% intervals?

I cannot find a solution to this yet. Hopefully some of the experts will...

I dont get why the fact that the battery goes down in
10% leaps instead of 1% bothers people so much. It does not make the thing less accurate,
perhaps it makes it even more accurate since depending on use one percent might
go a lot faster then another.

I'am quite a heavy user, so I recharge daily for few hours, when
the phone is connected to my comp.

I understand. As a heavy PDA Phone user. The TyTN battery seems to last for quite a long time. But the increment of 10% is too big for a battery meter.

Just like a thermometer, 2~3 degree celcius changes are not very significant for what we feel. But that doesnt mean it shouldnt show every 1 degree

For the car fuel indicator, no one would want it to pop from 10% to 0% all in a sudden. Altho we all know that 10% means low on fuel.

The resolution of 10% is too big IMO for this application UNLESS there is a significant reason for it to be 10% like it will drain ALOT of battery if it is being reported every 1 or 2%.

Hi

My XDA trion makes me sad.
The first time all works fine, but now the charging end at 90% and after 1 day the battery-tool says "low of battery"!
I tried a softreset, but the problem dont disappeared.

Can you help me?

EnzephaloN

I read in some review that it can play MP3s for 8 hours? Has anyone tried how long they can play MP3s for?

I have the same problem as EnzephaloN.

After charging my Dopod 838 pro to full charge in the afternoon. The following day, when i wake up, it is down to 20%!!

Has anyone else experienced the same problem?

I barely used the phone during this period and I have turned off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
