Help Charging w/2.2 Froyo

up 14hrs
awake 11hrs

Just a minute ago i was around 30% and the battery felt hot, all i was doing was browsing through market.. downloaded maybe.. 3 items... battery dropped down to yellow at 11%. Time spent... maybe 20mins.

Something is running when it shouldn't be. You might have an app that has gone haywire or something. I would follow the steps in this thread:

It is far less painful than it seems and it took me less than 5 minutes to get my phone back to the way it was. Since then, my battery has been awesome. Just now, I've been set on 61% for over an hour and a half. I haven't been using it much, but I did make a brief phone call and check a few settings from time to time.

Ever since Froyo my phone seems to take twice as long to charge, if not more than that. Anyone else experiencing this?

I definitely noticed, takes easily twice as long

Sadly, I already did all this :(

I've noticed that, while charging, the phone gets a little laggy. Swype barely works and moving through Astro is downright impossible. Still trying to figure out what's going on, though. But definitely only happens while charging. Might just be an isolated issue pertaining to me. Thinking about uninstalling Astro since it has an unstoppable service associated with it. Who knows... I'll keep playing/troubleshooting.


My EVO:
Unofficial 2.2 (.3, not .6 OTA)
Already performed hard reset
Running ATK
Using HTC charger
Did everything in EarlyMon's Froyo Fix thread
