Just finished doing your 2nd tweak..Wait n Watch. Though i dont see any llogic on ur 1st on. How does over-charging give u a better battery life? "


You will NOT over charge the battery, the circuit or whatever its called will stop when its TRULY fully charged. What I mentioned does is calibrate the phone with the battery. The phone seems not to know that the battery still needs more charging, who knows but it works.

Thanks for sharing.

PS: Does it make my battery larger too?

PPS: If this was an email, that subject line would be caught by my spamfilter "

If you want it to yes, knock your socks off.
And since its NOT an email subject why you bother to post, okay you have time, good for you.

to use the (default) 100 mW power, unless legislated otherwise in the law of
your country.

I have not had any problem keeping the connection. Even streaming movies works great. so surfing is no problem at all.

The switch to gsm probablhy had bigger effect, especially if there are things using internet, such as im/presence, email and voip/sip.

NOPE, the first thing I did before all that I wrote was to put the phone on gsm. Right now I'm testing the phone on 3G and streaming music. So far 1 hour and the battery green color hjas not moved.

yes it works with laptops (calibrates the battery controller) but no, it probably doesn't work with cellphones. battery (hoprfully with cheap knockoffs too!) has only protection circuit inside. "

It works with cell phones!

So it would for example be bad to charge it while sleeping... this is probably even worse than that.

But it's good to have other cents worth so others can decide so.....
