Is there any way to log what application is using what power? I'm using current widget to see why my total power usage seems erratic. Usually it idles at <10ma power draw but last night at 00:14 something completely raped the battery... (I was asleep from 11:30pm.) This is not the only increased power draw I've noticed recently, some days it would idle at 50ma and it wouldn't make it through a waking day even if it is barely used!

What app/widget is that?
 
Has anyone successfully made dialer one look good? I want to use it over the stock dialer, but it just looks crap. I had a look at the settings, and could only see options to have a black or white background, and change font colours?
 
re:facebook
its odd though the permissions included c2dm support but notifications doesn't have a push option only time based refresh.
they must only be using c2dm for chat. O.o
 
Yea I was a little excited when I saw push notifications thought we might finally get notifications other things like people writing on your wall... A boy can dream though.

Good find. I've been using Go SMS with the built in Christmas theme. Go Launcher also looks promising but needs polishing IMO.

Yeh, seems like there is a lot of potential with their apps :)

I'll start using the SMS app once they add better theming support.
 
new facebook with Chat comes to official Android app

Other new features include Push Notifications and some bug fixes to address unnamed errors.
 
Settings Profile is an awesome app - although I can't seem to get it working with HTC Sense. All the settings i set for the notification tones are just ignored and it seems that the HTC settings override them :(
 
Sounds similar to the problem I had with the custom notifications via handcent when I first installed it - turn off your 'stock' notifications completely and just use settings profile to set the notifications and see how that works out for ya :)
