Android Phone owners thread

I wake up a 8 AM almost every morning. and from then on I'm getting calls, texting, and then when I get to work. from 11-5 I'm occasionally checking emails, browsing the net, and doing other things.. I have WIFI at work, but it sucks inside the room I'm usually in. So I turn it off using Toggle Wifi.. amazing easy program. one push to enable, or disable. usually it's off at work. and when I need to get online to check actual sites. I use 3G, but when I'm for the most part not doing a actual for sure browse of sites. I have 3G disabled.

I can use my phone off and on like that from 8AM.. all day. and then I go to bed, and it has enough battery to wake me up the next morning. I just charge it the next morning when I'm getting ready.. Works perfect.

If I didn't do much.. probably get 2- 2 1/2 days

you?

i got the 2300 mah battery with the new back that has a rectangle in it. i must say it does alot better than the standard battery. i had to TRY to run my battery down in order to run it through its charging cycles. the new back actually feels better in my hands to because it gives you more to hold on to

I've got myself a nice original black one

[xguntherc]

Yup, original black one also.

So, I went ahead and called T-Mobile and tried to get a new battery. Key word being tried. My battery gets hot, not just when charging, but whenever I do simple things like play games, or browse the net, stuff like that. Hotter than both of the friends that have this phones do. There's doesn't get hot at ALL when browsing the next, or playing games. I'm thinking my battery is messed up, but the guy would not give me one. I even said I'm not just calling to try and get a second battery because I want a spare.. I'll send the old back. I want to try a new one. and he said no, He also said that HTC and Google are currently working with T-Mobile to deliver a New battery for our phone. He said it should be around 1600 mAh, and when they release it, we should all get it for free, since it's a replacement of our old battery. Not sure how true this is. But I sure hope so.. I really want a new one.

There are a lot of rumors about the new battery, but the time that its supposed to happen keeps getting delayed more and more

That almost sounds to good to be true. Not saying your lying but the dude at the T-Mobile store probably hasn't the slightest of clues of what's going on. I've never found a really knowledgable rep...
I learned more about this phone from the developers forum.. lol

Although it would rock if we got a free battery.

Yeah the T-Mo reps tend to be pretty clueless around here too. That said I've also heard about said free battery coming soon. Hopefully that, and cupcake, will show up some time in the next month or two.
