Battery drain while tethering - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

Hello all,
I hope someone can help me out, I am using WM6 and it is not rom related because I tried others. While I am connected to the internet through the usb cable using the internet sharing on my 8525 the battery is always low, and it doesnt fully charge unless I disconnect from 3G, EDGE however has no problems and battery state is always at 100%..I just had an episode where my 8525 just died cause of low battery while using 3G...
Is there something I could do that my 8525 will be 100% charged while using 3G via the USB cable or there is no around it and eventually the battery depletes even tho it is hooked up to the usb port??
I mean its connected to usb port and it has constant electricity why does it die?
Thanks a lot...

Any fix?
Have you found a solution for this?

Internet Sharing and Charging

Has anyone been able to use Internet Sharing and have the computer charge the PPC at the same time? I have Black Majik and Vista if that matters at all.
Yup, that exact scenario works for me - ICS via USB and the phone gets charged by my Vista laptop.

I use Internet Sharing all the time on my Sony vaio MS XP with my HTC 8525. I does charge the battery at the same time.
In that case, does anyone have any idea why it doesn't charge the phone on my laptop? It charges fine when connected via the Windows Mobile Device Center, but when using Internet Sharing, it won't charge.

Works fine for me. Not sure why it isn't for you. Only thing I noticed is if the phone's bandwidth is uses constantly, maybe the charging is lower.I.e. when I have it connected, but am not really using it for significant bandwidth, then it charges faster.
u won't be able to charge and mantained 100% batt power when running internet sharing & with HSDPA connection active

This is very true. With heavy HSDPA use while using ICS, it is actually quite possible that you can be pulling more power from the phone than you are putting back into it through charging. I've ran a battery from full to dead over the period of a couple hours of constant high-speed downloading while using ICS.

[Q] Random reset after car charger

I was using my EVO (rooted to Warm ROM) as a GPS today driving down to NYC. The battery wasn't completely dead yet and I was using a car charger to the phone. All of a sudden, the phone just reset! I had no clue why. I used my brother's EVO for GPS and after a little while, his started to reset as well! Has this happened to anyone else with the EVO resetting for no reason after using a car charger? Even after it was shut off, I kept it plugged in and it wouldn't charge (no amber led light). When I got home, it wouldn't charge with the wall charger either. I only solved it by directly charging the battery with a cradle charger for a few minutes to give it some juice and then the phone turned on and i was able to charge it. I was just wondering why this happened and how to prevent it?
I'm wondering if it was the car charger or the car's port or w/e but i don't think the port had a problem cuz i used an actual GPS unit and plugged it and it charged fine...
what i think happened to you was your battery overheat, which will cause the phone to reboot, some rom and kernel combinations will get hot when using nav app or 4g specially while charging, and once your battery get hot enough it wont charge its a fail safe, sometime they get damaged too

[Q] USB problem?

Hi
I just don't know what the hell is wrong with my GIO...I plugged in the USB cable for Mass storage one day and when I unplugged the cable, it's keep charging and USB is still connected.
It's seems like a bug with "Unplugging" or I don't know, I try CM7 CM9 Stock everything but nothing...sometimes it's works and stop charging when I unplugged it and everything goes normal but most of the time it's not.
It's so annoying cause it's using the phone and I have no deep sleep or Offline when is screen off so it's drain my battery really fast.
There's no problem with cables for USB or just charging I don't know what it is
If anybody know anything just tell me, plz

[Q] Battery or USB port failure?

Hello guys.
My DHD's USB port seems to be dying. When I plug it in to charge via AC, it charges the phone, but only at half "speed", around 300-400mAs instead of 800-900 like it used to do before.
When I plug it into a USB port, it charges with the same speed, and it doesn't offer any USB connection option at all, no USB icon in the notification area, nothing happens on the laptop either.
When I manually set the USB connection type in settings to Mass Storage, the USB icon shows up in the notification area, the SD card is no more accessible from the phone, but again no USB connection dialog, nothing happens on the laptop, the phone only gets charged at the usual USB charge speed.
I was on Jellytime r30 when I noticed this first, since then I tried several ROMs, even reverted back to LeeDroid for a while, at the moment I'm on Sabsa 10.0. It's all the same, it doesn't seem to be ROM related. But strangely when I reboot my phone, USB connection works for the first time (charging speed is still half when on AC), after it it's the same again I described before.
Can it be related to my slowly dying battery? I have to charge it twice a day, sometimes its power just jumps up and down.
Thank you for all your help in advance!

Hmm.. I'd say its port.
Buy another battery and see what happens, cause it could also be the battery.
I'm about 40% convinced its the battery, and even if it isn't its a good idea to buy a new battery (cause of your battery life issue)
Thanks, I ordered a Mugen battery, we'll see, I keep my fingers crossed to the battery be the culprit.

Mugen batteries are good, highly recommended :thumbup: :good:
If it is the port there are replacement parts available on eBay
Also try to clean the port with a needle, there could be some lint accumulating there

Solved: just to let everyone else know who face similar issues. I received the new battery (Mugen 1500mA), and all the problems are gone, USB is working again, charging speed is back to normal.

[Q] battery strage behaviour

My Galaxy w doesn't charge the right way any more. As you can see from the pic... After a night plugged to a standard charger it has only 75% battery left, and it seems to be disconnecting itself from time to time. Moreover it doesn't charge when I plug it into my car's USB, that works with many other phones! Any way to fix it?

How about a new battery? Have you tried connecting it to your computer if the connection gets interrupted?
The battery is quite new actually... Same problem with the computer: after a while it stops charging and starts back after minutes
But data connection keeps working while phone stops charging?

I don't think so... But I don't really know, I'll try to check that. Thanks for your help btw I really appreciate it
