HX4700: problem with battery - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi everybody,
I use WM6 on my HX4700. I am very happy with this ROM but I have a problem:
I bought 2 new battery (Cameron Sino technology) and WM6 does not detect when the battery is full. I have systematically 0% of charge!
I tried several ROM (sanjay1951 or Kozhura's. Many Thanks Guys for your great work ) and several hard reset but the problem is always present !
Thank you in advance for your help (I read all post on WM6 but I did not find solutions)
Bye
Sorry for my English

I don't have a HX4700 but I do have WM6 and two Cameron Sino batteries. It is not WM6 or your device but the chip in the batteries. None of the CS batteries I have detect the battery level properly. The company just don't know how to make the intelligent chip work properly in a lot of PDAs. Shame.
I get multiple Main Battery is Low warnings when the battery is full! This is on a LooxN560.

Thank you very much for your answer Fingertoo !
I know now that some Battery like CS are not compatible with my device.
If someone knows a replacement battrey reference for HX4700, it will be very great!
Bye

2003 -> wm5

Hi guys, first my greetz to all of you on this part of the XDA forum !
I had 2 x wallaby and one himalaya before, yesterday bought brand new ( yes I know that that is weird but it is brand new) BA...
On the himalaya I had perfectly operational wm5 and BA unfortunatly came with 2003se... I miss wm5 a bit so do you have any impressions about wm5 at BA, is there a version that function 100% ok and is it much slower than 2003 se ?
thank you all and best regards !
Yes, WM5 on BA is possible. Perhaps this page will help you:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM5_Home
There is also WM6 for BA now.
Alex
EDIT: I can't say if it will work 100% properly. I haven't used WM5 on mine yet, but I can say that WM6 (although it is not bad) has its bugs. Some can be fixed, for some there are work-arounds, but there are also some bugs which I couldn't fix yet and I think it will never work as good as a original version from the manufacturer / provider (and I guess there won't be such versions for BA).
Thank you Alex I guess that I will try WM5, that will be enough for me for now
Best regards and thanks once more !

Thank you.

Hermes is no longer produced by HTC...
The closest you can get is TyTn II [Kaiser]...
Have you even bothered to browse HTC's website?
Cheers.

Dude, you also own Hermes. How is your experience is with it.
If i give you a choice between N95 and Imate JasJam. Which one will you select?
for me it's the best device to load many apps, rom flashes (wm6.1 runs great), media, scalability, travel, UI, etc.
good luck

Most of the time battery life depends on type of ROM you use and how much you use it. Some ***** about it, some live with it. Hermes is a mid level phone, if you want more juice out of your phone then go for kaiser!
Or get a bigger battery... I can sooo see someone lugging around their hermes attached to a car battery one day......

MATE, ARE U Serious???
There is a wealth of information on this phone on the XDA site. Use the search function is a great place to start.
I will however play nice
In my experience the Hermes model is a great phone. Note the amount of development still happening in this forum. Not many other phones of this age still command such attention. It has an abundance of connectivity options. The battery life depends on how much you use it as with any device. The Hermes wiki contains the specs of the beast. http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes.

I mean to say if you use daily 3 hours Wi-fi and always connected to the 3G Internet service then how long the estimated the battery live. I tried before Nokia N95 and it's battery only last for 2-6 hours in the above stated operations. I am already using PDA2K and happy that it is best phone ever made. but it lacks 3G, HSDPA, and lots more...

Hello, I already read the Wiki but as i stated sometimes real experience is required then reading the wiki. I upgrade my phone every 12 month. But, i don't want to get stuck in something and then looking after to someone who buy it from me. That's why some research and real experience is better then getting stuck.
Thanks for your response.
hmm
My next phone after learning windows mobile would have to be the htc touch pro. As I still like the keyboard function.
As previous posters are saying do your research. Get parallel imported phone from a reputable online seller on ebay or where ever you are.

German HTC Diamond Stuff

Hi everyone!
As you can see by my posting-count, I'm pretty new to this...in fact new to the whole xda-thing. chose the diamond to be my first WM-based device and today amazon shipped my german diamond.
...So! I'm very excited about the whole ROM & tweaking stuff. So i wonder when the first german-based roms will be out for use. Maybe someone of you knows more than I do?
Then, maybe someone can answer me this little bunch of questions:
- I'm looking for a good GPS-Software. Had TomTom 6 in mind. Someone already tried out and of corse where can I get TomTom with a german map for a cheap price?
- Someone of you running SCUMMVM on his Diamond?
- Heard about the low batterie life of the diamond. Would be interested in some facts from you. How long are your diamonds running?
Thats all for now. My Diamond is arriving tomorrow, I think there will me more questions then ^^ Have a good night. Oh, and a cool beer of course =)
Good GPS: NavNgo seems to be pretty good, I like Sygic McGuider on diamond too. Both working fine nowadays.
ScummVM rocks, I play Day of the Tentacle and Full Throttle, cool sound and graphics!
Battery lasts for a day easy with all I wanna do. Navigation in car (using GPS) use a car charger, it eats battery.
NavNGo8 for me, battery life ain't to good so keep it charged while using your GPS.
TouchFlo3D, nothing like it. seriously, almost everything you need is right there in your face. Apply the tweaks on these threads & you should have a good experience.
indeed battery sucks big time.

1. battery life improves SUBSTANTIALLY with using one of the available 1.37 ROMs(personally, I'm using the TLR ROM and I'm pretty happy with it)
2. TomTom 7 has been optimized for the Diamond and it's VGA res as far as I heard, so using TomTom 6 instead may not be a good idea. I heard that some of the TT6 maps are working fine with TT7, I can't confirm it though. All I can confirm is that TT7 works very smoothly with the Touch Diamond and the navigation also seems to work very well since I was able to test it downloading one of the free city maps.
3. this is the ROM development forum, so your thread isn't really fitting in here, please keep that in mind for future threads/posts. Thank you.
Does the TLR Rom offer german language? And as far as I know, TomTom7 is only included in the O2-Version of the Diamond, so where can I get it? brought an unbranded HTC Diamond...
Just tell theses guys with a german XDA how to extract their ROM, so the devs can cook some german ROM´s or maybe work out a .cab to get rid of the blue Tuchflow theme!

i use tt7.45 with map 7.20. works fine. but actually the gps receiver will not work.
i think, the last firmware update was not 100% perfect.

I have seen this topic, but wanted an opinion on your experience
Our experience is there... Don't double posts...

Goodbye, and thanks for all the ROMs

My Hermes fried its radio chip over the weekend, and after much research and time, I've given it up. As much as I've loved this phone, and all the fun of flashing new ROMs, I had to go with a new phone. Work and family just won't let me go without one...
Thanks to ALL the chefs on here for their hard work, and the fantastic community that made XDA one of my top sites in my reader every day. You guys rock, and you do it all for love (and the occasional donation), and I really appreciate that. Please keep up the excellent work.
N
P.S. Anyone interested in a Hermes and/or extended battery? Works fine for everything but the cellular network (yes, WiFi works).
My friend it has been a honor! Peace!
thats to bad my man,why not upgrade to a more modern htc phon eand stay around on the forum family,btw if wireless works surely the radio is still alive?anyone know the answer?
anyho all the best and fare well
why does it screw up?
maybe you conect it an external anthenna?
or stay on a metallic place with wires all over your body? jajajaja forget it!
Am I heard something like a new Battery? does it is extended HIgh capacity batt? is new?
how much is it?
Hi. Did you read your PM?
Cheers
Well I'm another member saying goodbye to the Hermes section and relegating my trusty phone to the drawer.
I've splashed out on a very good condition Xperia X1 for £120 on ebay, (approx $190).
I'd just like to say thanks for all the work people have put in and all the advice given.
good! bye!
Thanks for been here
