HTC Desire Battery Calibration

Update: You may want to read this (Specially the bump charging part) before you move forward.

My HTC Desire's charge would drop to 93%, 91% or 90% very quickly after removing from the AC charger. I came to this post on xda-developers.com that help me fixed the problem.

Basically all you have to do is:
  1. Charge your phone until the notification led is green.
  2. Disconnect the charger.
  3. Power off the phone.
  4. Reconnect the charger.
  5. Charge until the notification led is green.
  6. Disconnect the charger.
  7. Power on the phone.
  8. Power off the phone again, once its powered on completely.
  9. Reconnect the charger until the notification led is green. 
  10. Disconnect the charger power it on and use it.

    Well, you are not suppose to overcharge the battery. You may be killing it doing so.

    Erm, I do believe that the battery charging circuitry in modern phones prevent the battery from being overcharged and drained 100%.....

Increase Free Space On HTC Desire Android Phones

Are you running out of free space on phones like HTC Desire and variants? It only has about 150MB of free space and after official Gingerbread 2.3.3 update the free space has decreased. Its really frustrating seeing all those apps with 20MB+ size eating up valuable space on Android phones. Even with App2SD I had very very difficult time maintaining free space. Installing apps like Facebook, Google Plus, Google Reader would eat up all the space. Today I used link2sd to increase free space on my Android phone and now I've more than 1GB of free space for installing apps. I've been installed so so many apps now. link2sd can move your application apk, dex and lib files to second partition of your SD card and creates a symlink where necessary.
