Hello EveryOne,
I have Imate PDA2K and any one who is going to solve my following two issues i will pay him $5 as a gift from me by PayPal.
The problems are:
1. When ever i remove the battery of my phone to change the sim card the time and date changes to the default time and date something like the manufature date. I try to upgrade the rom to wm5, then wm6 but nothing help. Even the backup battery is showing 100% full all the time.
2. When ever i try to call i press the answer button but the call don't connects. Some times connects and some time i have to try hundreds of time to connect my call. Same thing is for the recieving the call. Some time it connects and sometimes it hangs during answering the call.
I will really pay $5 who will help me to sort out these problems. I buy this device as pre-owned device that's why not able to get help at clubimate.com and hence plan to get help here and pay a part of pre-owned fee to someone here.
Thank you,
1.) it's a backup battery problem, change the backup battery.
eventhough it says 100% doesnt mean it's not failing.
the backup battery is charging from your main battery.
it may show 100% but easy recharged when you put the main battery.
if it is easily recharged... it will easily discharge... hence, flat batt.
2.) i dont know this but it maybe related to main battery failing to give power to the phone module. i had a BA with no service /and/ talks disconnection once but when i changed to a new battery it was gone.

Thanx for your response...
1. Can backup battery easily changable i mean is it like a big battery like we have in our pc motherboards or a special service center have to change it?
2. Let me change the baterry today and see what happens.
no prob... just add your reward to your battery procurement.
and i hope that works...
What else may be?

I have changed the battery today and it done the same call answering problem just one time in over 20 calls before this ratio was 99% of 100% times.
What else may be creating this problem of hanging mobile during recieving the call. And also please tell me which rom of wm6 is best you think i will use?
install 2003se rom back, if u hv 2005.
try xplode's latest cook. it's in the WM6 thread of BA
The rom does not matter (well mine is a lil quicker than others but)
1. Simple SIM change procedure - press power, wait 10-20 sec. , then remove the battery and change the sim. after powering on hit reset once (or you will get no radio) - this way the date will not reset
2. Phone LAG - this problem occures when a lot of memory and cpu power is used for the OS, then the phone starts to lag. Here is a simple tweak which will speed up the phone app - press Start => Settings => Sounds & Notifications , remove the check for Events (warnings, system events)
there are a lot of tweaks which will speed up overall performance of the phone, but you need to search the forums for them
And remember, the phone app is the same for all WM5/6 devices so the tweaks are the same, you can look in other devices forums for tweaks
Thnx Every One!
Hello,
Thank you every one for your replies.
I changed the battery and currently checking it to make sure the problems got solve out.

hello, from the beginning, i've don't know how to realy switch of that device. i've searched every where, i didn't find. i'd look for sofware that do that, and they juste put it in stand by.
if some one had a solution, give me please :!:
thanks :wink:
hi...
i don't know specifically the spvm2000,but all ppcs don't shut down like desktop computers....they just stay in standby mode...
now if u want to shut down ur ppc phone edition,so u can turn off the phone,then it's not the way u do that....u can just tap on the signal icon on top of ur screen,then choose "turn on flight mode".... :wink:
RAGO :lol:
yes yes, i know, but, at night when i sleep, don't need my ppc to be in stand bye mode. a complete turn off would be great, this will cause battery to last longer i think
You could always just take the battery off This probably won't help either though, because it'll still draw power from the backup battery.
You've probably got to accept that PPC battery life isn't great. I've recently moved from a Treo 600 to an M2000 and the battery life is noticeably worse, but then I get to do more stuff with it.
I think some of the phone profile software may allow you to switch the radio off at certain times which would probably help. You could also try Pocket Hackmaster which allows you to configure the processor speed (although I've been trying this for a couple of days and I think I need to do more reading because I seem to have made matters worse ).
ok, i've juste done a test: remove the battery, and replace the battery: no power comsuption of the external (backup) battery, and no data lost. so, now, just find a software to remove and replace the battery :lol:
Hi all,
I've just spent a good amount of time browsing these forums - lots of good info here!
I've got my hands on a free i-mate jasjar from work as it is having battery issues and they just upgraded the user.
The issue is that it drains the battery in about 3-4 hours - thats with no sim in, phone / wireless / bluetooth turned off, very minimal use. We got a new battery for it in case that was the issue but it still loses it...
The other ones we have at work get at least a day / day and a half depending on usage.
I've reflashed it to the latest i-mate firmware (1.30.76 WWE) but stilll no luck....
Aside from sending it off for an expert to look at - does anyone have any suggestions on what i can do to diagnose / fix the problem?
Cheers
Sam
disable activesync checks
in wm5 activesync checks every 10 minutes or so for new data even if you do not have a server installed.... so.... here are the steps.....
with the device disconnected from the computer !
1. click "start"
2. click "programs"
3. click "activesync"
4. right soft button "menu"
5. click "add server to source"
6. fill in "1" in every field clicking "next" as you go through the proccess! (or any other fake data you want)
when you get to choosing what to sync, uncheck everything and click "finish"
7. right soft button "menu" again, now you'll have "schedule" lit
8. click "schedule"
9. change both drop down menus to "manually" and uncheck s"end outgoing items immediately"
10. click "ok"
11. right soft button "menu" again
12. click "options"
13. select the "exchange server", click "delete" and "yes"
14. click "ok"
YOUR DONE !
the device should last a lot longer !
have fun !
p.s.
don't forget to disable IR so the device won't try syncing with the sun ....
Great - I've set it up and will test it out over today - thanks for the reply
Make sure your infra red is also off, receive all beams is unticked.
Presumably you're not using any over clocking software? They disable the idle mode detection so make the battery less efficient, even at slow clocked speeds.

Infrared is off, currently its got fresh firmware as off yesterday, charged overnight - no sim, every conceivable option turned off, no extra s/w installed.
Since 9am its now down to 85% - roughly using 10% per hour with zero use....
I have the Same Issue ,the battey use very fast .
at the first I think may be is the net lock make that, But yesterday ,I try to use the unlock tools ,but same as it.
the charge complete. close all function ,can't use more than 8 hour's.
I've the same issue,...change a batery with a new one, BUT when it goes les than 70% all the problem start, loose the phone signal, shot down....I've a official Qtek 9000 ROM of febr. '06

I think That's the Radio or Hard device error.
If other Rom have not This issue. I think that's this rom make it .
There are a number of threads regarding batteries and new ROM versions and I think the concensus is that its the battery and it is just coincidence about the new ROM.
I have had my device for about 8 months and it has behaved well until a few weeks ago when it started to shut-down at 70-80% battery. The shutdown only occured when I had a heavy drain on the device e.g. when using GPRS or phone and I started to think that the battery was dying and the heavy current drawn by the radio caused the battery voltage to drop below a sustainable threshold for powering the device - hence the shutdown. £20 later I have a new battery (from eBay) and can go 1-2 days without charging. I am leaving the old battery on charge for several days to see if it can be salvaged

Thank you help, But I return to the old version ROM. the batteries is OK. I don't know how to explain them
Try measuring the power consumption with acbPowerMeter and post your results so that we can see your device indeed has problems or not. See my related articles for more info (cross-posted to the General forum in here).
My Universal power consumption
With BT on and Wifi off power is at 642 mA...
Is it bad or good?

What that's mean?
it means that the device has bt turned of, and also wifi turned of and acbmeter indicates a power consumption of 642
I also seem to have started incurring a problem with battery, it is shutting down the device at 50%, and yes there was a slight draing GPRS and Push Email running, and trying to make a phone call.
It only really happened today, and am at a loss as to the cause. I would guess, the battery is 1 year old and probably needs replacing.
i have been using two different 3.2 roms ltcmdr, then jw's for a while now and no problems until today.
I suspect its the age of the battery. I am in the process of trying to suck the battery down as far as I can, then recharge it.
It appears to do a complete shutdown every 2% from 50% to 40%, I am now trying to get it to less than 40%.
My original battery lasted me for about 8 months when I started experiencing the shutdown / hanging problem whenever the charge would drop to 35%. I replaced the battery with a new original battery and all went okay. Unfortunately my second battery is only 5 months old and I have started experiencing the same problem again although this time the problem is occurring at a charge level of 15%. When the battery reaches this level and I try to connect GPRs or make or receive a call the unit hangs. If I try to soft reset I cannot do so till I connect the external charger.
I think such a low battery life is simply unacceptable.
Regards
Ever wonder how a battery tells the system that it is full and to stop charging?
If you get a new battery, take the old one down to somewhere below 100% -then install a new ROM and see what the battery meter reads after the hard reset.
The system must recognize a point which would be monitored and recognized as "full battery". When installing new ROM's, the system takes the battery power at the time of the install as 100%. This is why it is reiterated in almost all ROM upgrade instructions:
"Your device battery must be fully charged before installing this ROM".
However, I'm not so keen as to have a fix; but I've noticed that when the battery is fully charged and the device is then unplugged, turned on and then off, then plugged back in...it seems to charge alot longer than what I would expect necessary to reach 100% once again.

Will still be able to browse with my device? thx
I'm just doing tired of unistall apps and monitor processes to see what causes this all of a suddent. First i thougt it was phone alarm, then voice commnad..now i start to think that this is since i intaleld htc official rom. I had the touch rom before and everything worked fine...now my battery with regular use dont last till the end of the day. Anyone having this problem...any sugestion?
same problem
i even bought a new battery and it only lasts 1 and half days
With the HTC official rom too?
yeah official o2 wm5 rom, think mine has somet to do with the reset button as ive never pressed it yet as i just got the device and i have relised its stuck so think it keeps restarting randomly..
Anyone knows any app wich i can mesure the battery consuption independetly...i just dont know what to do more. Or i need a opinion on stable WM6 Rom for Artemis with some good store space....
Hi all on this Thread, about Battery drain power.
First of all, it could be better to help you if we can see what kind of OS (original or cooked) you own on your PDA.
I saw an option on Tweaks2k2 .NET that could "Boot @ full power mode" with some warnings. Warnings that talk about draining power of you PDA with some alarm reminders that are still activated.
That could be a way to look for.
My rom is the official HTC upgrade to WM6. I didnt use any tweek so far. Just want to see if anyone had this problem with the official rom since this problem appered after i intealed the offcicial rom. I had the touch rom before and everything was fine. I'll try to put the app to see if is set to full power dont know how...thanks.
get a application like BATTERYSTATUS which permits to over/underclock your system and check if your CPU speed is set to the correct one. sometimes making a hard reset right after upgrading a rom is also a good idea
Already have and always used it...its not the processor speed..i think its some app but i cant find wich or the radio version since when i make a 1 or 2 minutes call always 1 or 2% go down

Battery status gives you the comsumption. In that case set the refresh delay to something like 2/3 minutes. Of course, in that case, battery status will have itself a high comsumption of battery. But it can give you clues.
I noticed that battery drain is a lot higher after flashing a ROM, some people have a theory that the battery training starts all over after a flashing process. I think I can confirm that. My battery never lasted more than 1.5 days after flashing a ROM and my first GPS fix took about 3 minutes. A few days later my battery was fine again.
If the power consumption info from batterystatus is not enough try this taskmgr: http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm or get some battery benchmark software from on of the big freeware sites.
Hi, I've got problem with my battery. It sometimes happens, that my battery status drops e.g. from 50% to 10%, after restart it goes to 25, after restart to recovery mode it shows only 9% and after another restart goes to 25. What to do?
I tried to calibrate my battery, delete battery status, flash another rom, but no result.
I tried let my screen on having a photo presentation and I managed to have screen time on about 10 hours. So it seems that battery is OK, but the dropping of status happens and its annoying.
Somebody has a solution?
Thanks a lot.
What do you mean by battery status? Is it the one that is in settings or status bar? Anyway this might be caused by having certain apps on when you open a lot of apps or high usage apps. It could also be when you installed new apps, they could be running without you knowing also. Or it may be some software issue causing that to happen since it seems your battery is OK.
Sigh. I have this problem too - it's been documented on this forum but I forgot which thread.
The source of the problem is that the mis-calibrated fuel chip. Somehow all recent samsung tablets rely on a faulted algorithm (i won't go into the technical aspects of it) to calculate the remaining battery percentage, and the accuracy of such a calculation degrade over time. The only solutions are 1) use a safe pry tool to open the back cover yourself and reconnect the battery - a risky procedure I won't recommend 2) Send it back to samsung and have them fix it.
All qualcomm chip based tabs/phones don't have this problem - it only happens with samsung chipsets.
Thanks a lot for the answer, however, not a good news...
My Tab S 10.5 sent to repair center because of unable to charge my tab after setting it to charge (battery at 7%)...
I was unable to charge... powering charger won't do anything... Could it be related to this problem ?
I got the tab s ehh about 2 weeks from launch and everything works fine. Could it be the new ones?

Don't know... I got an answer from repair center: tablet rooted, not under warranty...
As this is an hardware problem (I can't power on or charge it) and I can"t even access recovery or download because of no life on my tab :'(
I mailed to customer services with complete explanations on my problem... awaiting their anwser...

How did they know you rooted it?
You win !!!
I don't know... As I can't power on my tab even with power supply I just can suppose that they just plugged my tab to an "automatic robot diagnostic tool" and seen that the Knox fuse was turned 0x1...
This is the only suggestion I can make...
Hello!
I purchase my LG G4 4 months ago, until last month everything was perfect - great battery life, maximum performance and my country language available.
I cant tell for sure, but either just before the update to 6.0 or a week before the phone started to slow down.
My current problems after updating to 6.0 are:
-My Hebrew language is no longer available, i needed to download the app "MoreLocal2" and flash it somehow and even so i need to choose throw the app my language(HEB) after every restart.
Before the update I used Smart Cleaning and in rarely use app the app "Change Language" was there, it was the option the company who sell the phone put inside the phone to make Heb language to work, and Smart Cleaning delete it.
-Battery (!) one of the serious problems, the battery just drain like crazy, Chrome take 1-3% every few minutes, i cant use the phone more then 3-4 hours in average. even less, use.
In addition to this, i charge the phone with the original charger and the percents keep going down, i cant use the phone and charge it in the same time, the battery just drain out, if i keep the phone plugged throw the night with Data off and all apps close its will charge about 30-50% in 6 hours. ??
-The performance are getting low, maybe its because the other problems or maybe its actually does i cant tell for sure.
-I want to delete some apps that comes with the phone(Docs and etc) what the best way to do it?
I thought to change Rom, adding root with Greenify and custom Kernel and hope its will solve most of the problems, but i have a warranty(I am solider in the army and if i send the phone to them i could pick it up after a few weeks) so i prefer to try other options before, BUT most likely change room will cut off the warranty and leave me to solve it alone.
TY a lot! I hope my English is good enough to understand most of it.
