And that would be a cheapo battery ;)

That would be a cheapo 3500mah battery which in reality is like 2400-2600mah.

I have a 3500mah battery that gives me 40hrs and still have about 30% left. What's there to hooray about an extra 150mah?
[Epic 4G General] darkierawr:
And it hasn't exploded yet! I don't think I could do it though. It's all about upgrading to save battery life for me now. Don't really wanna crush the hobby.
[Epic 4G General] Robman62:
Well cant go into details really but Someone I know was returning the phone(gs4g) , got it a day earlier so I did a switcharoo with the batteries. The batteries are identical in size the only way to tell it is a different one is the extra 150mAh.

I am seeing a noticeable boost in battery life, I can now keep 4g on all day and use the apps pretty heavily without worrying about the battery level. It does take a bit longer to charge the battery fully, but I'll trade that for more phone time any day.
[Epic 4G General] ranchosteve:
I have the sedio 3300mah battery, don't mind the size but it takes forever to recharge. I got the samsung charger, and fr me its better to just swap battery's.

After reading the I'm try to pick up the 1650mah battery. Thanks for the heads up :)
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
It will increase stock battery life by about 10% while being able to use the same back. The 3500mah battery is really only like 2400-2600mah while the 1650 mah battery will really be like 1600mah. To people who dont want a fatter phone or who use the docks, it would be a good deal if the 1650mah was pretty cheap. To people like me who have the "3500mah" battery, doesn't make much sense unless its REAAAAL cheap.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kevorski:
Hi guys!

First I would like to say thanks for all the awesome tutorials that I have found on this website about rooting and what not.

So I just rooted my HTC Incredible last night and now I have some huge issues:

- My first issue is that when I try to power on my phone it will get stuck on the Droid splash screen and loop through it. I have tried a factory reset through the recovery menu and even tried to install a new ROM but nothing is working

- Second when I had my ROM installed I was missing all the main applications (people, market, etc..). It looked like I had found something about them but I haven't been able to attempt to try it since I can't install any ROMs or get pass the Droid splash screen.

- Lastly I couldn't get my Incredible to update to 2.2.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have spent about 5 hours just researching and googling to try and find a solution but to no success
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kevorski:
So I just got the problem solved with the loading but the only problem now is that there is no Market. How do I get it installed. It doesn't show up in the manage apps
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kevorski:

[Fascinate General] Shakes The AssClown:
Can anyone tell me why the Android phones have battery life issues? Here's a scenario...my friend has an iphone, i have the fascinate. We both put our phones in our locker in the morning for work. We both come out for break and he still has well over 90% of battery life while mine is down to 70%. Why do the android phones drain so quickly. Yes I could put it in airplane mode and such but my friend doesn't have to on his Iphone.

Just wondering why these phones have such a tough time with battery life. I notice in a lot of the forums people are trying different things to get better battery life. I have tried different roms, kernels, radios, etc...and really don't notice a huge difference. I am not a heavy user of my phone and it lasts just about the day and dies. I may hit the net for few mins, do some texting, and check email from time to time. I would think the battery should last a couple days just doing this...not drain when the phone is just sitting idle. Anyway just wondering about this.
[Fascinate General] khanable:
Apple has complete control over their phones. Designed in house, software developed in house, and carriers have no say in the software.

I have a feeling that has a lot to do with it.
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
Which ROM? Of course you are aware of the many workarounds needed to keep froyo idle drain under control? These will eventually be fixed for good.

I have even more of a complaint about the active screen-on drain. Using auto brightness indoors, its impossible to get more than 2.5-3.0 hours of screen time. (WIFI or 3g) This is way less than iphone 4's capability of around 8 hours. There are some things that help explain it like androids 100% cpu usage when scrolling or animating the UI. However, there must be massive differences in the screen power consumption. Yea, yea, SAMOLED, power draw depends heavily on displaying black vs. white etc, but my random usage never gets more than about 2.5 hours screen usage over a day. Say what you will about apple, but they optimized the hell out of battery life.
[Fascinate General] Kaze105:
Which kernel are you using? After moderate usage for me (games, browsing web with wifi, phone calls, etc) my battery life is around 70% after 15 hours.
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
Guys, since screen-on time dominates battery usage, it'd be nice to note how much screen-on time you get and your brightness setting. Defining "light" usage over a number of hours could mean just about anything... very subjective.
[Fascinate General] Kaze105:
True enough. I set my light to auto and since im usually in a room, the light setting is at lowest. When im outside, its goes to the brightest settings.
[Fascinate General] beray5:
Iphone pretty much have more or less the same battery life problems.

If you use Google Navigation and constantly force rerouting to destination by taking wrong turn/path, your 100% charged phone would hit empty within 2HRs or less with the screen brightness set at minimum.
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
Anandtech reveiw of several real world tests shows iphone 4 smokes the fascinate bad. Not even close.

http://www.anandtech.com/show/3957/samsung-fascinate-review-verizons-galaxy-s-smartphone/8
[Fascinate General] Kaze105:
We have a more powerful phone than the iphone 4, of course our battery is shorter. (better screen, faster cpu, etc) Also seems like our antenna is the best according to the review.
[Fascinate General] Zacisblack:
Android is made to constantly sync with the internet for updates and notifications. It's just the nature of the operating system to draw a lot of power because in theory it is a more powerful and complicated system. Also keep in mind that the battery inside an iPhone is huge and it is lithium polymer which lasts longer but is more expensive. These larger lithium polymer batteries are the main reason iPads and MacBooks get good battery life as well as their less powerful chip sets.

EDIT: Oh, and also iOS doesn't use as much RAM as Android so that also factors in to the battery life being generally better.
[Fascinate General] Zacisblack:
Dunno about you but my Fascinate get's poor signal compared to other phones. Also slower network speeds.
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
I appreciate the more open, easy to modify nature of android over apple. But to trying and explain the 2x worse battery life on android as arising from "better" processor and screen is wishful thinking at best... blatent android fanboy propaganda at worst. We need to learn how apple has optimized things, not turn an overconfident blind eye.
[Fascinate General] beray5:
It's unfortunately that the Fascinate lacks the monthly software update support similar to Apple, but using the support from this forum by the devs, I had achieved 1% power usage for every 3 hour idled = max possible 300 HRS.
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
Guys, there's a lot of android fanboy propaganda going on in here. I'm not against android, but don't automatically defend it like its your mama. The ifixit link below shows iphone 4 has 1420 mah battery as opposed to fascinates 1500 mah. They also both have 512 MB RAM. So that's not the issue.

Also, the Anandtech tests were done with phone on and active. So are you trying to explain android was at a disadvantage because it was "doing things in the background"? Like what? Any background process or sync service that kills your battery that bad is implemented horribly. iOS is doing the important stuff in the background too... maybe just not the ESPN or weather widget. But no one in their right mind believes those things are the problem.

http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iPhone-4-Teardown/3130/1
[Fascinate General] Kaze105:
Sadly, I am the opposite of an android fanboy as I would have gotten the iphone for verizon asap if I havent gotten the fascinate back at November. (Iphone on Verizon were still rumors back then). Also note that review was done in October last year. Battery life is probably much better now with cleaned roms and froyo.

If you really need to browse the web over 4 hours a day on your phone (use computer?), why not just get a larger battery or even get the iphone?

Edit: Hardware mean a lot in battery usage. After checking the iphones CPU, seems like its pretty much the same or similar to the ones of the fascinate, except slower clock speeds.
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
Personally I don't get any better battery life from froyo ROMS. My wife's fascinate with stock eclair usually gets as many if not more hours of screen time as I get with superclean 2.9.2 and jt's EC10 w/ slight undervolt. Sometimes I get much worse battery life when I forget to activate one of the 10 workaround hacks still needed to fix the idle drain issue.

I use 2.5 hours of screen time daily quite often and find my battery exhausted before the day is over. Maybe I'm the rare case, but I doubt it.
[Fascinate General] Kaze105:
Verizon is pretty much known for its slower network speeds compared to AT&T. I do get pretty good signal, overall.

My battery life with imnuts undervolted kernel is much better than ones from previous EB01 kernels. I didnt find much difference between SC 2.9.2 ROM and Nameless V3 battery with the same kernel. I usually have around 75-50 percent battery life left from moderate usage. (Different from other people according to screen brightness and etc as stated in previous posts)
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
Under battery details, what is your display "time on" at end of your day? What is Max "time on" you ever got? Without those numbers its hard to say anything objectively.
[Fascinate General] Kaze105:
Since its monday tomorrow, ill test the max time on. At the end of the day, or rather when I start charging it again/installing kernels or roms, time on is 14 hours and 17 minutes.
[Fascinate General] Jmatch:
On my fascinate I unplug phone at 645 check face book and xda for about a hour on auto brightness. I then go to school and check pulse and xda many times totaling around 2 hours. The rest of the time is idle so after 2-3 hours of screen time and then 3-4 hours of idle during the school day I get home with 85-89% left im using dark revenge with imnuts undervolted kernel. Im no android fanboy I'm just posting my stats.
[Fascinate General] SotYPL:
Are you saying that 3 hours with screen on took 15% of battery life only? I'm sorry but won't believe in that.
[Fascinate General] Dewmgaze:
misread. delete please :/
[Fascinate General] Shakes The AssClown:
See if get frustrated hearing the stories of hours of use and only a few percent lost. I am using build 1.3.11_25 of MIUI from DeezNotes. I am on the dl09 modem. Been off the charger for 3rd hours and I am down to 80% and that's even being in airplane mode for an hour.. what gives?
[Fascinate General] Kaze105:
Go to settings, about phone, battery usage and see whats using the battery the most.
[Fascinate General] beray5:
If you wanted good battery life I suggest DJ05/DL09 with adrynalyne or SirGatez ULV kernels and SetCPU. I had 1% power usage every 3 HRS idled, tested for 18HRS or 6% total power usage.
[Fascinate General] Jmatch:
Is it really that uncommon to get an hour or two of screen time and only go down 15-20%	shoulda said this before but im running on 800 MHz if that helps
[Fascinate General] Shakes The AssClown:
Beray5,

Do you have links for those? Looked in the Fascinate Development...i see some but I want to make sure.
[Fascinate General] SotYPL:
So 1 hour or 3 hours? Don't you think that's a big difference?
[Fascinate General] beray5:
I'm sorry I don't have the links, I always download what I needed from the developer forum and kept them on a spare drive.
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
Shakes, are you doing the 4 required rituals to keep froyo idle consumption down?

1) enter / exit airplane mode once per boot (don't have to stay in it)

2) enter / exit Google maps once per boot

3) disable latitude or Google location services

4) set wifi sleep policy to "never when plugged in"

If still having issues, some think disabling auto screen rotation helps, but was never an issue for me. I leave wifi, GPS, and rotation enabled all the time, and doing tricks above my idle screen-off consumption is about 1% per hour on SC 2.9.2. Not bad.
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
Either your battery gauge is badly broken or your concept of time is flawed. At 3 hours of screen on time your battery would be close to exhausted, not 85%.

I never understood how bragging about fictitious battery stats was cool or helpful... but it happens a lot in these forums.
[Fascinate General] CC268:
I never had trouble with battery life at all, I don't understand exactly why I am different than others...Before rooting I got 48 hours of battery life using Ultimate Juice on custom settings (texting, web surfing, facebook, market, etc/ medium usage). No I am not exaggerating. Keep in mind I keep gps off unless I am using it, screen brightness all the way down and use the Beautiful widgets brightness widget to turn up when needed, dont use live wallpapers, dont use WIFI unless needed, and dont use app killers. Now with root using super clean and comavolt and ultimate juice I get about 25-30 hours of life (not fully tested maybe more maybe less). Games will destroy your battery life especially robo defense (drain your battery in like 45 minutes). Anyways, if you have any questions let me know.
[Fascinate General] CC268:
I doubt he actually meant he sat there for 3 hours with the screen on, now surfing those things over the course of 3-5 hours is perfectly believable...
[Fascinate General] Jmatch:
Ya my bad ment in small increments
[Fascinate General] Kaze105:
Been 12 hours and 6 minutes since I unplugged the phone from 100% charged. It is 69% right now after moderate usage. Wifi used the most battery at 20%. More than half of that was taken after I left on wifi on without without really using it for 1.1 hours. (Browsed the web during the other half)

10% were used for phone calls and games. Brightness was at lowest due to bad weather and being indoors.

Since there seems to be some people complaining how their battery dies without even using the phone, im going to see how long it takes for the battery to die without really touching the phone.
[Fascinate General] Shakes The AssClown:
Ok...been off the charger now for 16th hours... down to 13%. The main 3 things chewing up the battery are display, idle and os and I watched it drop a percent typing this out. Is this good? Mine you.. 6 of these hours it was in airplane mode.

Sent from my Fascinating MIUI.
[Fascinate General] Kaze105:
Get spare parts and go to battery history, what does it say is using the battery there?
[Fascinate General] beray5:
Do you use the built-in speaker phone? If you do, you should get yourself a nice bluetooth head set.

The bluetooth head set will drop your audio power consumption by a minimum factor of 10. Bluetooth class 2 maximum transmit power is 2.5mW with 30 feet of coverage, typical power saving is more than 100 to 1.
[Fascinate General] bigjobber69:
Anyone heard of any Stable undervolted Non Voodoo Kernels coming out soon? Or anyone ran the imnuts -100 for a while or even the -50 and been stable??
[Fascinate General] Scrappy1:
How much time was the display active? Sounds like very little if it wasn't in top category?

I'm very curious how much display on time people are getting before their battery goes dead.
[Fascinate General] Piercing Heavens:
I've always end up around 3.5-4 hours screen on and my phone is pretty much dead.

Of course once i actually get to around 50% I stop using my phone in fear of it dying. From then on its just texts and calls if need me.
[Fascinate General] CC268:
It will be interesting to see what kind of battery life I get with the PB&J kernel
[Fascinate General] gr8icu:
are they both CDMA phones? or are we comparing a GSM phone to a CDMA phone? where I live, GSM phones seem to have an advantage in battery life. I suppose it has to do with the signal you are getting.
[Fascinate General] wil318466:
I have SuperClean 2.92 and EC10 installed.

After 12 hours of not touching it at all, (data on, no wifi or gps) 7% battery life drop.

[LG Optimus 2x] sommer07:
When I wipe my phone/factory reset in MoDaCo's recovery, will this wipe my internal SD? What I'm basically asking is :

Is it safe to save backups on the internal SD? Or should I wait till I get the time to buy an external SD-Card? (I don't use App2SD) I really want a faster LG :p even though it's pretty fast with it's stock rom ;)

I did search before but I couldn't get a definite answer, so better safe than sorry. :)

EDIT: By reading another thread I think I kinda got my question answered... I'm still wondering if I can backup from internal SD
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
You can't save nandroid backups to internalSD.

And no, internalSD is not wiped.

The reason for both is that internalSD is not mounted in recovery.
[Thunderbolt General] Varelse:
Since i cant seem to post in the developer forum to ask this, does anyone know the voltage of the stock kernel in Liquid's rom?
[Thunderbolt General] g00s3y:
Thats because it isn't a forum for questions...

The voltage is still stock i believe, but UV at lower than stock speeds.

Hey guys I've posted this on android themes but reposting it here as I used it on the vibrant and it looks great.

Hey guys a quick tutorial on how to create "hubs" using two launchers. This was not my idea and credit goes to user "Duhhh"

Here's a visual explanation:

My current homescreen (launcher 7)

Clicking on the Music tile would bring me to my "Music Hub":

This can also be used to create a "games hub"

"Duhh"

So there you have it. The hubs can work on any mix of launchers and not isolated to 7launcher alone. I provided three "Music Hubs" (courtesy of amucinom) to get you started

Hello

I have a problem, really would appreciate help

I just installed android 2.2 cyanogenmod on my Hero, everything went fine, I was tuning my phone installing stuff, then I decided to install Georgian fonts, because android doesn't have them by default.

I used command line to mount /system RW chmod 777 /system/fonts and copied my fonts there. rebooted phone and it didn't go past "G2 touch" screen.

well, I booted into recovery flashed again

then I used other methods, used root explorer to copy, some other software to make system RW but nothing. this time phone freezes at cyanogenmod welcome screen

Need to note that I can't return /system to RO. (think this is a problem) in shell it says partition busy, when clicking on button in root explorer it just does't switch to RO

any ideas?
