HTC EVO 4G :: Negative Effects To Leaving Phone On Charger?
Aug 2, 2010
I recently picked up my EVO, and am loving it. Does anyone know if there are negative effects to leaving the phone on the charger? At work, I'm primarily in my office, and could leave the phone on the charger during the day and then it would always be full when I leave in the afternoon.

There are a lot of threads popping up due to the OTA install. I noticed it included Slacker radio and a vCast Apps app. Has anyone successfully moved/removed these apks without any negative side effects?

I have a desk job that I'm pretty much at my desk 90% of the time and was wondering if I have it hooked up to my PC through USB cable and have it fully charged all day, is that okay to do?Meaning I rather siphon off the power from the PC instead of the battery which might conserve it in the long run from not cycling as much. I use to do that with my Iphone 3g and my battery was still good after using it for almost 2 years.I wasn't sure how the power management was handled on the Captivate meaning is it sucking power from the battery and it's constantly recharging or if it sees that it's connected via USB, it powers the phone from the PC or outlet.

I think it is interesting that you can't say 1 bad thing about this phone or everyone in this forum will either say "bye" or "trade the phone then" or whatever it is. I have the Hero and when people brought up negative things about the phone i agreed with some and disagreed with others. There is no perfect phone out there and when people are shopping for new phones it is good to hear the good and bad then they can make their decision on which one to buy. I would like to see some "real" likes and dislikes on this phone to make an educated decision. Then i can decide if i should pull the trigger on the powerfull EVO wait to possibly get a 2Ghz phone released sometime this year by motorola?

Not sure what I did, but on powering up, I had trouble getting it to turn on. Maybe I double pressed the powere button after the power on had started, but as soon as the droid eyeball screen came up, all images on the screen were in negative. This continued through the home screen loading until I turned the phone off and restarted, getting normal colors.

So my phone has this weird pattern of resetting about 2 minutes away from my house when I'm driving (happened in two opposite directions). It was just sitting in my pocket and I hear it reset (sometimes it reset multiple times on the same trip). I thought it was maybe the task killer running funny so I disabled it, and still it resets. Happens every time. I'm using Fresh 0.3 but it happened in earlier versions of Fresh too. Anyone else having this issue? Maybe it has to do with switching towers or something (in my house I get a very very very weak signal).

Would leaving the screen on all of the time be bad for the longevity of the phone? I ask cause my phone stays in the dock for extended periods (days) on end. What is the expected life of the phone or shortest span component?

Is it possible that a resource id (such as a generated id for a string resource) can be a negative int?Often, when defining a method that accepts a resource id, I want the caller to be able to specify a "null" value.For primitives this is not possible, but I'm wondering whether "any negative value" may be a good approach? Alternatively I suppose it would be OK to specify the argument as an Integer and take advantage of auto-boxing.Thoughts?

Will virtually any mini-USB based cable, car charger, and wall charger work with my HTC Droid Eris? Mini-USB cables are generally universal, but I want to ensure that I use a compatible car charger and wall charger that won't damage my phone. The official Verizon accessories of course seem overpriced, if any generic solution would work equally well.
For example, I am considering this product on amazon.com: Amazon.com: Home Travel Wall Charger + Rapid Cell Phone Car Charger + USB Data Sync Charge Cable for HTC Touch Pro 2 / Tilt 2 / Hero / Imagio / Pure / Touch Diamond 2 / Droid Eris: Cell Phones & Service. Overall, this mini-USB cable / car charger / wall charger combo gets positive reviews, but I've heard of random glitches for some cheap chargers.

I am using the OEM charger on my Dinc and nothing else. I randomly get a message something like, "The charger you are using is not compatible with your device. Remove the charger now to avoid damage to your phone". I have not used anything other than the OEM charger ever. It isn't loose or frayed or bent strangely. It also seems to charge even though the message pops up. For now, I'm using my computer's USB port to charge it but man, that's SLOOOOOOOOW. It has done it since I first got the phone and before I had even installed my first app. It also does it after a factory reset and reprogram. Customer service is sending an aftermarket wall charger free of charge until I can get an OEM unit as they are obviously out of stock.

I have 2 email accounts that I check on my Samsung Captivate, and I'm having problems with both of them. When I click the Email icon and view both of these accounts, one account shows -1/1 messages and the other shows -1/25 messages. If I get on Yahoo and Gmail and check they show the correct amount. Yahoo has showed this for a few days, and Gmail just started today.Can anyone tell me what is wrong and why they show a negative amount of messages?

I am trying to increase my volume for the handset. I have the original factory codes set at:
0 = -16db
1 = -12db
2 = -8db
3 = -4db
4 = 0
5 = 4
When I go into the master settings to change the RX volume codes, I can not figure out how to make a negative number. Can someone help me get in the right direction to change the volume settings? My volume is so low, I can barely hear when on the phone.

I'm am considering to buy the i7500. Here in Croatia it's pretty affordable with a 2 year contract.
Now I realize, from reading this forum, that this phone has a lot of problems. Unfortunately, I don't understand all the technical talk.
So to keep it simple I would just like to know which of the negative aspects mentioned in gsmarena have been solved with Galaxo 1.6.3. as oposed to the 1.5 you get when you buy the phone? I understand, obviously, that FM radio and other hardware missing cannot be solved.
No smart dialing
Camera features are a bit outdated
No videocalling
No multi-touch gestures
No Flash support in the web browser
No DivX/XviD video support or a third-party application to play that
No FM radio
No TV-out port
No voice dialing
Somewhat limited 3rd party software availability
No Bluetooth file transfers (not without rooting)
No tethering (not without a custom ROM)
My question is probably annoying and noob-like, but thanks in advance to anyone willing to answer me.

The X10 mini is a very cute phone, but also a very strange one!
I own the phone since July, and I would like to share my opinion about it with you!
Negative Points:
1) Bluetooth is not functional. Totally wrong!
2) I can't charge it when is turned off! It always turns on automatically!
3) The alarm is ringing every time it likes! if you snooze it continues ringing every 10 minutes! If you deactivate it with slide bar, then it is not ringing again next morning! You have to set it up again!
4) 5megapixel camera without zoom? it is unacceptable!
5) I can't organize my files into visible folders! All my photos, my videos or my music are presented altogether. Although I have made folders in the Videos and into Album application, the phone is still showing the files altogether! I have downloaded some applications about it (ASTRO, FileExplorer, AndExplprer) but they seem to be useless!
Positive Points:
1) Very good screen. Very good touch procedure. (I would like to have the zoom function of the i-phone)
2) Very good colors
3) Very good video player!
4) Cute!
5) Small!
6) Beautiful!

Charger changes screens on phone.
Am using Mini to Micro usb converter/adapter on motorola RAZR1 charger--plug charger's mini into the converter plug, then plug the micro end of the converter into the Evo.
When I plug this set up into the phone, the screen changes from the Home screen to a large icon screen with Footprints, Navigation, Voice Search etc. big icons. Have not seen this screen on this phone before.
Have tried two different mini/micro converter plugs on different Razr1 chargers with the same result.
Since the RAZR2 chargers are compatible with the Evo, I had assumed that the RAZR1 chargers would also be compatible, the only issue being the mini/micro interface. So I purchased for short money some converters so the I could use the multiple RAZR1 chargers I have.
Seems that the RAZR1 must have a substantially higher, or lower, output that is just not compatible with the Evo.
Does anyone have any info or experience regarding RAZR1 chargers with the Evo ? ...with this screen changing thing ?

Just this morning I plugged my phone into the wall charger and it froze up everything. Eventually the phone reboots, but after it finishes booting it freezes again and the whole process repeats indefinitely. If I charge it from a usb port it works fine. I searched around but haven't seen anyone else with this issue. Any insight or suggestions would be great. CM6.0 w/King's #2 kernel UPDATE EDIT: It's now doing it even if I use the usb port method. Getting pretty fed up with this thing, it had been working flawlessly with this romkernel combo for a week before this.

I need to get a couple of things for my desire to make my life a little easier and wondered if you kind people would point me in the right direction. I need to get (as cheap as poss) A spare charger for work And A spare battery. I'm not sure where to look and what to go for without electrocuting myself or as tempting as it sounds burning my works building down.
