So after quite a while of hacking Windows Mobile 6 for the Dopod 838 Pro (aka HTC Hermes), I have hacked together a replacement firmware for the phone. There are a number of improvements in this ROM from the stock HTC Dopod 838 Pro firmware. I’ve put this all on a single page that will be updated as I continue with this project.
After kicking up a bit of a stink with Dopod and Phonetec, I managed to get my phone back and repaired on the 13th December. 1 month after it was sent in for a warranty claim. It certainly is working much better in the battery life department. Using the application BatteryStatus, it shows that the phone is now drawing 81mA at idle with the backlight on instead of the 185mA it was consuming before. This means I get over double the battery life!This makes me a much happier person 
25 days after my Dopod 838 Pro arrived at the Phonetec service centre, I’m still waiting for it back. It looks like it they have replaced every circuit board in the unit, and now they’re replacing the LCD screen as well. They say that they probably won’t get the parts for another 10 working days – so I’m tipping that I won’t get the phone back until the beginning of January. At this point, this is the longest warranty repair I’ve ever had to wait for – If I don’t get it until January, then I will have been waiting nearly 1 1/2 months. Great service *cough*.
