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.
My battery drains within 6 hrs of WiFi usage. No heavy downloading or updating, (keeping auto sync off).
With out WiFi, the phone lasts for hardly 10-12hrs. Mobile data seem to last longer than wifi.
I am charging for more than 10hrs to make sure battery is full and there be no calibration error.
The issue started happening after I installed Sunabh ROM. I use to wonder why there is a "switch of WiFi notification" in Sunabh ROM, every time there is no wifi connection established. Now I know why.
What could be done to solve the issue ?. I have tried other AOSP, stock based ROMs after that but couldn't solve the problem.
Please suggest methods changing kernel, radio or may be calibration methods.
P.S. I wonder, why there is still no standard guide to improve battery life in this forum . There must be certain a software set that would provide maximum battery life (assuming average hours of use).
Turn wifi off when the phone screen is turned off

I use the "SenseOnFire" rom and my wifi is on all the time, when i dont use the phone that much the battery lasts 36h or more. but i noticed when i use the 3g my battery drains faster.
P.S. I had your problem when i used JokerDROID 4.2, the exact same thing
Try this out....it will help you on your present rom..
1. Go to recovery and wipe battery stats.
2. Open market and search and install battery calibrator.
3. Plug on charging and charge it to 100% and then open battery calibration app and click on battery calibration while keeping the charger plugged
4.after when the app says calibration done..remove your charger plug..and you are ready to go.. but after this step..let it discharge it to 0% and then charge it to 100% without break.. hope it works for you.
This improved my battery life to about 4-5 hour..

The other thing you can do is try reflashing latest radio. Unless you don't have an a3335 phone. Also try entering *#*#4636#*#* then in phone information scroll down then in " set preffered network type to " GSM auto prl ". It will save some battery.

Solved. Phheeewwww.
Guys, I solved the problem by working on the CID bug.

. Again, practicality. Please. Please.
There seems to be a misdirection in the entire forum on how to improve the performance of the phone. I hope a senior member consolidates and prepares a "How to improve your phone" post rather than a list of all ROMs and other useless shopping lists.
My phone runs 3 days now, it took only 1 minute of action. Cheers to non-dev guy who posted the method.

Was that directed at me? Sorry, I am not at your beck and call here. and I am not obligated to do anything for you. Help yourself.
If you feel there is need for a "how to improve Your phone" thread then crack on and make one because (sarcasm) you're obviously smarter than us all, one thing you forgot though is that every phone is different, yes some things work for all but some don't so even a thread like this might still be redundant for you!
Most people on here post suggestions from there own experiences when trying to solve problems for themselves, they may be correct they may not, you should be thankful to these people even if they're suggestions weren't right for you. And as for the list of roms and the shopping list I bet that thread has helped thousands of people solve problems, which is a damn sight more than you've done in this forum so jog on mate!!

Why he mention "pratically"? Practically means just what you can practice. And our suggestions are practiced by us. It may/ may not work for you. But you should check it. And about the thread you mentioned, dude each of us have personal interests. So as we customize our phones. Its different for every one. What you can do is roam around the forum and take what suits you the best.
Hey i can drink a full 750ml redlabel Scotch with out a single drop of soda. I prefer it that way. Can you? Its just as it.( no mention Pls. Just wrote an example)

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Hi,
Is your phone rooted? You need to calibrate your battery. See guide here: http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/calibrate-battery-on-android-devices-with-battery-calibration/
yea my phone is rooted & i tested all rom's in xda & all kernel also the caliberated mod no thing solve my problem
do you use your phone alot and do you run alot of apps
p.s. what rom are you using?
pls excuse my english
My problem is not that my phone goes off, the contrary.
I use my phone all day without problem, the problem is the bar indicator still shows that my battery level is 18% even if I leave it to load a week.

In standby overnight, maybe 3-5% battery drain. A lot of things come in play though such as what apps you have installed, if your on LTE, or 3g, or wifi, or even go into airplane mode at night, etc.

first of all , I'd like to thank you for your reply ..
I've bought a new desire 816 two days ago and I can notice something wrong with the battery as it drains faster than normal
and it gives false percent as it increases after restarting the phone ..
I've tried to calibrate the battery by letting in turn off by itself then recharging it to 100% but then I realized It's still giving me false number
I don't know what to do ... It would be great if you can help

Have you tried a battery calibration app such as the one by NeMa in the PlayStore? It requires root but it basically asks you to charge your device to 100% which is done from empty to max in about 3 hours. At this point you go in the app while its still plugged in and "clear" the batterystats. This is the file that tells the device how much charge it can hold and on some devices this file gets buggy/glitched. It will wipe this file away and generate a new one based on the charge the battery holds at max. It then asks you to use the device as normal until it dies and recharge to full afterwards. This has worked for many and I hope it will work for you as well.
If you have excessive battery drain look at the Power settings and review the usage. If it shows a green line on awake and it doesn't show the same matching the screen on time then you have a background app sucking battery from the device. Facebook and its Messenger are known to be the culprits but if you download Greenify from the PlayStore. It will allow you to hibernate practically every app so there is no battery drain when your device screen is off. In combination with this app I am able to get an average day and a half of use with no charge and normal use with Videos, Music, Facebook, Messenger; etc. I average I use about 6-10 hours on this device with pure stock w/ root & Greenify with battery calibration via app done.

Yes, Greenify does require root in order to work but it does work flawlessly.

Unfortunately, the lack of rapid reaction because I was too busy
Pressing the power switch for exactly two minutes and the device will tell you Alglaq Do you want to or not agreed to the demand and calibration Congratulations to you
Thank you
I fixed my battery issue. the exposed software killed mine relating to the same issue i believe you had or have. reporting wrong percentage. once had 50 percent, took it back out of my pocket and within 5 mons i had 4%. wouldnt charge.
Power it off... hold all 3 buttons (power+volume up+volumedown) after 15 seconds it will boot back up. this calibrated my battery. hope this works for you.
Wrong battery percentage report is fixed by HTC on 1.58 rom update. it works fine on 1.58 Rom
My battery on my htc is draining fast I think it went from 100% to 83% percent in like 20 minutes is this normal? I have disabled everything that I'm able to disable on this phone but once it gets to 70% the drainage kinda slows down
Hi guys, Please help me,
My battery usage is awful, right now after 7 hours its 23% , Android system is using 32 % of my battery.
I tried everything, like factory reset, flashing the rom with odin, changing the battery with new one, using apps like battery doctor, freezing system apps and so on, no matter i use the phone or not, every night 50% of battery is reducing, i removed sd card, sim card, putted the phone in flight mode, turned of wifi and gps , i really tired, please tell me should i give up and buy a new phone or there is solution for my situation and please tell me the phones with realllly goooooood battery life

Maybe is battery wrong.
There may be a hardware issue. Did you bring it to the Samsung service? You might get a replacement...
