Battery Drainage

[Guest smoothcrooner]

Hi all,

My battery drainage on my Orange branded Omnia is atrocious:thumbsdow, I barely get 18 hours of use on one single charge if I'm lucky. My ROM version is BVHH1, I know, the dreaded HHs, anyone else experiencing this problem? I've spoken to Orange to find out if a ROM upgrade is forthcoming, only to be told that one will not be available for a couple of months at least:mad::mad:

Had the same problem until I updated the firmware:

I'm in the UK and I use the DX-firmwares .... they work great, no regionality problems at all.

After installing a HJ version battery life has also improved drastically.

Moreover, I recently discovered that I had a problem with a contact via activesync (a contact with a photo), and my phone tried to update this contact each time it tried to retrieve mails and it costed me more than 10 Mb per day => it drained the battery.

I suppressed this contact and all is OK now: the conclusion is that activesync never got connected before and right now the data transfer needed for activesync is very small.
