A full battery for about 90min talk time and may be abt 30-40min angry birds all gone.

I still have my phone on background sink off, wifi off and on gsm signal and on low brightness.

I even tried a battery from ebay which claims 1600mah, but still no good.

i get 48 hours standby or 10 hours at work with bluetooth GPS and HSPDA mode all running and screen at 75% brightness, and thats on a normal desire, and the desireHD i supposed to be way better on battery life.

Your signal strength plays a big part on battery life, are you sure you have full signal and what network are you on?

I have the fone and its on tmobile and the battery seems to last me about a day or so, but this is dependent on number of factor

1) amount of calls madeand received

2) Wifi

etc etc


I Have to charge the battery every 24hrs or so.

Same here have to charge it every 24hr.

I dont use 3G data so have my settings on GSM only and will have my wifi and Backgroung sync turned off after use. Brightness at around 25%.

After all this, I can get about a day comfortably with a little bit games and abt 2-3 hrs talk time.

The battery life on the HD is very poor. I have to charge the phone at least once a day with the phone being on the car charger whenever I'm in the car. I have wireless, bluetooth and GPS off. I mainly use my phone for internet. Mugen have already released a more powerful battery but this is only 1350mAH. I do, however, believe that they will be releasing a more powerful battery shortly.

In any case, the phone is awesome but the battery life is really poor.

True, for a phone this good the battery and speaker lets it down.

Also I was wondering if any one can shed some light abt this issue for me.

How do I organize my camera shots, i.e I want them in albums with editable names for the album.
Eg like peak dist trip, paris trip or family.

I want the camera shots to be perzonalized in to folders/albums, so I can go for the albums straight rather than scrolling from top to bottom

Any idea's guys

Thanks

The only Possible way I can think is via the FTP. So you long onto the fone using a FTP software and then create the folders into the fone, after that Move each Photo into its desiganted folder.
