I seem to have had a power drain on my X50v with wm5 recently installed. The wifi was off and so was the bluetooth and ofcourse the unit out of the cradle. The programs I have are
Bejeweled
AvantGo
Dell GPS
Wisbar Advance
Weather Pannel
Madden NFL 2006
iLauncher
Pocketbreeze
TCMP Player
Activesync 4.2

If anyone has a clue as to which program could be causing a power drain please let me know. If there is a setting I overlooked please let me know. I am looking for answers from people who have had the same issue. I really like the way it is set up and do not want to revert back to 2003 edition, so any help would be appreciated.

Thx,
Bobby

How is your ActiveSync set-up (auto or manual)? I've had problems in the past with ActiveSync trying to sync up every few minutes.

How can I set it up on manual?

The Axim seems to have many power issues

I dont remember where I saw it but there are instructions to fix activesync from kicking off every 2 min. That was my problem and after I turned it off my battery lasted much longer.

bobby9621

I already have the A02 rom update.

search the forums, I had the same issue when I first got my ax and fixed it. Thanks to aximsite!!! Kirkman is right, your axim will try syncing every few minutes unless you change it to manual.
