Haven't had a problem so far with battery life, it's been great actually. Maybe try quiting idle Apps? I am looking forward to a root soon and hopefully a Rom... fingers crossed!

[HTC Desire S] miniterror:
Thabks for the reps.

You have a little lower then my gf.

Gonna ask her how she gets out of apps.

As for closing bsckground apps i believe the gb taskkiller should do that on its own atleast froyo does on my phone so cant imagine they taken it out although its htc:p

[HTC Desire S] mae`:
I got drain from 8mA to 22mA in idle wih a Median of ~13mA

WLAN is off during day

GPS is off most of the Time

3 Accouns syncing every 15 minutes

3 Widgets running

Maybe this helps :)

Regards
[HTC Desire S] axelpix:
14mA with WiFi always on and 2 Exchange accounts syncing every 5 minutes plus GMail account syncing constantly.

You might take all background syncing processes under consideration. Also bad wireless reception may cause higher currents.

...number of active widgets, live wallpaper,...
[HTC Desire S] Oo Alias oO:
Download an App Killer, they are probably just staying in the background and eating the battery.
[HTC Desire S] miniterror:
since froyo there is a built in app killer so gingerbread also has it and it and therefore using another one will eat extra batt

Xda is full with threads why not to use a app killer;)
[HTC Desire S] RogerPodacter:
this is what i was curious about. my nexus one gets between 3-5mA of idle current draw during the night with wifi on. but the thunderbolt for example, with the Sense UI ROM, has some weird problem where the current is 34mA idle on stock ROM, and that is what everyone is seeing. i collected 7 days worth of current widget data from TWO units, both identical results.

so is the new desire s something to do related to the new sense UI? or is the thunderbolt just a fluke? 18mA is too high for idle. and especially since the new HTC inspire i've gotten it to 1mA during idle at times, which is mind blowing. so i always attributed that to the new snapdragon efficiency. i was hoping the desire s would be even better, and get superb battery life with 1450mAh battery and normal sized screen at 3.7".

please post more results when you can!
[HTC Desire S] miniterror:
I have no idea what is causing iti have a desire be myself and there are plenty desire s ports out and all give me the drainage I'm used to(3-5 ma) maybe the defs have some tweak to save batt

It could also be the debugging tools that are in a Rom and are disabled in custom roms
[HTC Desire S] E-Tech:
Currentwidget and Battery monitor widget logs that the phone use around 20 mA (8 hours log) whit the screen off.

and after 8 hours the battery is drained from 1450 mAh to 1435 mAh.

This is just not possible whit a steady use of 20 mA

1 hour of 20 mA = 20mAh and after 8 hour it needs to be 160mAh
[HTC Desire S] diwad:
hm

How did you measure it ? Something must be wrong : the battery drainage or the battery use. In the best case you have battery use about 2mA and that's just awesome. If it's not the case you just drained 160mAh as you say it should be. Hope that it's the be first one.
[HTC Desire S] RogerPodacter:
Yeah I just figured it was a typo or mis read his mAh, I can't see any other answer. I would do another over night test and try to confirm.
[HTC Desire S] E-Tech:
I did logged whit Currentwidget and Battery monitor widget. And i did calculated the 160 mAh on my own.

The widgets both say that the device use 20 mA messured every 60 sec. After a hour that will be 20 mAh and 8 Hours it will be 160 mAh (8*20mAH=160mAh)

But Battery monitor widget olso did says that my battery is drained from 1450 to 1435 after 8 hours. ( I started whit a full battery)

Last night over 8 hours the device used about 1%=14.5 mAh

2011/04/17|01:27:28|-23mA|68%|3917mV|29.3ºC

2011/04/17|09:27:28|-20mA|67%|3902mV|20.8ºC
[HTC Desire S] RogerPodacter:
I wonder why the desire s gets such high current drain. The original desire, and my nexus one, get 6 mA during idle screen off.
[HTC Desire S] axelpix:
After some days of BatteryMonitor logging I can say, that the current with screen off never drops below 14mA. Often it's even higher (over 30mA).

The Gingerbread on board battery consumption overview shows Maps as a major consumer. Even if I never used the Maps application since the last complete battery charge, it is there as one of the most bat drainers. I have the feeling that it's this behaviour after updating Maps from the shipped 5.2 to the current 5.3.1

But that's OT. The battery drain is too high even without the Maps app.
[HTC Desire S] xilw3r:
normal idle screen off should never be higher than 6 mah.....

so what the hell is up with this thing :O ?
[HTC Desire S] jazzaddict:
i'm experiencing the same issue too
[HTC Desire S] bongo1:
i was experiencing some horrific battery time also, like 30% drain in 7 hours screen off while my iphone only drained 7% in that time. I believe the culprit could possibly be the "use best wifi performance" button coupled with wifi not sleeping.

Ive now turned off "best wifi performance " and set wifi sleep to 15 minutes and im now getting 18-22mA - i understand this is still bad - i cant spot any other apps using battery.

Will update again later today.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
All feed back and information appreciated and we all appear in the same boat.

Although I have wifi turned off during the day and still get battery drain

Thanks
[7 Mozart General] d-signet:
just got the update notification, flashing now.
[7 Mozart General] carmello1911:
already done it. works like a charm!
[7 Mozart General] webwalk®:
from which version did you update and did you noticed changes in camera?

i.e. Autofocus
[7 Mozart General] carmello1911:
I just purchased my mozart yesterday with the very first ROM on it. only thing I did was to connect it twice with zune and manually check for updates. firstly I got the feb update and then the no-do.. As for the camera, when I press the capture button I have a small rectangular box in the mid of the screen like zooming a bit and then take the photo.. I am not sure if this is what you mean as I hadn't test the camera prior the updates.. one thing I have to state though is that the loading time for marketplace, games and apps is lighting fast..and i mean it.. you can say that there is no loading an they start immediately! Hope that helps ;p
[7 Mozart General] d-signet:
haven't noticed any camera differences

updated from stock rom....7008 was it? Sorry i'm new to Mozart (only got the handset this week) and had the February update waiting on the first time i used it. That's the version i updated from.
[7 Mozart General] CliveEP:
Camera shutter speed is definitely faster which should mean for better pictures especially in darker environments.

Overall am very pleased with the update as I love the OS but the bugs were incredibly frustrating, and whilst some remain the major ones for me (dns server errors, calls cutting out, phone switching itself off) seem much better.
[7 Mozart General] d-signet:
personally finding copy&paste to be quite temperamental....only managed to get it working properly once and that was copying from the URL bar in explorer.

Dont understand the reason for international english users NOT having voice search in Bing. The video i saw of it working was from somebody who obviously had English as a 2nd or even 3rd language and it worked fine for him....are you saying that it couldn't pick up my british english but it worked for him?

system DOES seem faster and more responsive - not that i had any real problems with system speed as it was.

For thise interested :

[7 Mozart General] carmello1911:
I just realised that I can't use voice search option either! I have English (UK) in my settings and currently on O2 UK network (phone is branded to Orange though). Anyone knows why is this happening? and possibly how to fix it?! Thanks!
[7 Mozart General] shamreez:
I think they are giving the update in small batches...

I have only got the feb update till now..

Hope it would come any day........
[7 Mozart General] d-signet:
i read somewhere that they were only rolling the voice search feature out for 'American English' devices

I can understand why they might not roll it out for other languages, but why they wouldn't also roll it out for international-english i don't understand.

considering it works so well for this guy : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oR3NvksYMPk&feature=player_detailpage#t=61s

i think it could handle british english perfectly well.
[7 Mozart General] webwalk®:
thx, that should awnser my question... i wonder why...

sounds like you didnt get the updated camera software.

what bootloader are you on?

and what firmware ?

the new camera app is supposed to autofocus without pressing the camera button half way... you get very much only stabalizied pictures after that, videorecording also improoved very very much...

i really wonder why carriers would remove that.... its a shame
[7 Mozart General] d-signet:
mine does that - just checked

OS version : 7.0.7390.0

Exactly the same details in my mozart. autofocus is working without touching the camera button at all, i noticed it better now! :P
[7 Mozart General] webwalk®:
what are the squares poppin up in bing search.. i tried to get them (now lookign for voice too) but was not able.

i think the guy has htc europe rom installed, he said he debranded his orange

also the model id states: HTC 7 Mozart T8698

thats the model id for unbranded models....

i managed to get them squares by setting

Redion & Language

Regional Format: English USA

Browser Searchlanguage: English USA

still no voice commands...

switched primary language to English and phone set everything to English UK

still no voice search, but its allright, im on early tmo bootloader
[7 Mozart General] d-signet:
i get the squares ... they're just hotspots on the image that pop up after a second or two with 'trivia' about the picture.

agree with what you're saying about his mozart being unbranded, i'm just curious as to why it would be in some builds and not others - or why it would be in some english-speaking locales and not others.

He's in the UK by the sound of it (his accent - although a bit broken - has a tinge of irish in it and his searches all base areound belfast) so you'd have thought that the UK english rom would be fine.
[7 Mozart General] webwalk®:
hm, the guy in the video has united kindom region

he uses exactly the same rom as yours

only his firmware is 401 which is htc europe

061 should be your orange then...

i had this rom installed once, but i think i never tryied other regions to see if it would enable voice search... dont want to reflash untill there is a nodo jailbreak
[7 Mozart General] d-signet:
mine is indeed 061

hmmmm

also his OS version is 7.0.7389.0

mine is 7.0.7390.0

his bootloader : 1.30.22.50.1(117833)

my bootloader : 1.30.22.50.1(117854)

looks like mine is maybe a different build number too then?

Maybe they took this feature out ?

it would be a shame if there was no way to get this activated though
[7 Mozart General] meegulthwarp:
I got the NODO update a week or so ago cuz I used the turn off internet method. Still no auto Autofocus. A bit annoyed as I think the camera is the best I've used bar the Autofocus issue.

OS: 7.0.7390.0

Firmware: 2250.09.13001.061

Radio s/w: 5.54.09.21_22.33b.50.10U

Bootloader : 1.30.2250.1(117854)

Has anyone else with a Mozart on Orange receive the HTC update that some people are talking about, I for one haven't.
[7 Mozart General] d-signet:
that's odd ... exatctly the same bootloader, firmware and OS as mine but i have the autofocus

do you have voice-search?

AFAIK the HTC updates don't apply for Mozarts (yet) and there's no firm confirmation for what exactly the updates are or what they fix.
[7 Mozart General] meegulthwarp:
No voice-search I am aware of. Pressing the Bing search button brings up the same old screen. I wonder if this is due to the fact that I "forced" the update. Might try and restore my phone to the Feb update and see if it will then pick up the Orange one.
[7 Mozart General] d-signet:
ok,

if you do - let us know the results

tmode still testing nodo so

ill wait for my battery to load & then i will:

flash back to tmode 1.25 (7004)

RUU_Mozart_TMO_DE_1.25.111.05_5.50.09.18_22.24.50_RELEASE

i had success with this rom once, i may try this..

RUU_Mozart_TMO_DE_1.28.111.03_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50_RELEASE

try to unbrand using this method

with one of the following roms:

RUU_Mozart_HTC_Europe_1.23.401.06_5.51.09.06_22.30.50_RELEASE

RUU_Mozart_HTC_Europe_1.26.401.03_5.51.09.06_22.30.50_RELEASE

RUU_Mozart_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.04_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50_RELEASE

then jailbreak, prevent relock, update to nodo

(some zune method, not chevronupdater)

i hope ill get the updated bootloader/firmware throu this part..

if everything goes right i should end up on the following:

RUU_Mozart_HTC_Europe_1.30.401.01_5.54.09.21_22.33b.50_RELEASE

but not flashed,

it will be updated and jailbreaked

and should have:

- bing voice search (US and/or UK - Display Language, Region & Browserlanguage)

- updated camera driver (autofocus)

- 16 bit color branding (meh)

i dont have sd card reader so without goldcard its a lil adventure :cool:

Thanks for your reply. I think I have visited that page, among many others.

Guess life is not that straightforward in Legend Land, so I must keep trawling the many threads and try to piece together what goes on.

On the market for 0.99€
[Android Apps and Games] imakul8:
Thanks, I did find it on the Market. There is a free version as well. I thought this app was gonna be like Tasker or AutomateIt, but it's just a profile setter. I kept looking for more settings and there were none. Not what I was expecting. Interface is pretty good.;) BTW, the name Profili-Fi is Gayie-Gay. Lol, I just had to say that.:p

is there a way to find hidden SSID's in the paid version? There isn't an option to enter your own SSID in the lite version.
[Android Apps and Games] RFLabs:
Tanks for the comments and reviews.

Yes we can! (like Obama),

there is an option to enter your own SSID in the lite version, add a new wifi profile on Menu/Add/Wifi and enter manualy the desired SSID network.

I never tested detect hidden networks, i will test it and if needed i correct it.

Couple of things

I'm on Droid X, and when I set the sound profile to max of 7, the volume goes only half way. Any way to make the volume to the max?

Is it possible to set a profile with Bluetooth too? For example, when I am in my car with the in-car Bluetooth on, I don't need WIFI on.

Hibernation and Sleep?

Hi

what does Hibernation do ?

what does Sleep do ?

Just curious as I'm going for the paid version, but would like to know what these things do.

regards Thomas
[Android Apps and Games] RFLabs:
Hibernation and sleep are the same thing.

On settings of full version u can enable/disable the hibernation mode and schedule the begin and end of the hibernation period.

A quick explanation of the Profili-fi mechanism.

Profili-Fi turn ON and OFF your wifi periodically (can be changed on Settings/Refresh Time) to scan the environment for known networks to adjust your mobile phone profile.

If hibernation its ON for example since 00h00 at 09h00 the Profili-Fi wont scan the wifi environment between this times and with that saving some battery.

Feel free to tell me if u dont understand something.

Proposals

Hi:

Your application is amazing... it is a real good idea. I have two proposals:

- An export/import option to recover the configuration when you reinstall mobile, software, or simply to give the configuration to somebody or to another phone.

- An option to enable a wifi and let it run intermitent (for example, enable it every 10 minutes to check e-mail... and even launch the checking... not all the e-mail servers have push)... if you leave it always on the battery will die quickly.

- If you add bluetooth configuration depending of detected devices (my car bluetooth, for example)... you will be the king!

... please... enable de hibernation period in lite version! (hahaha)

A really good job! congratulations!

Carlos
[Android Apps and Games] k4p741nkrunch:
If you could tie in CPU scaling for the individual profiles this would be the most amazing app ever!

Example usage:

Driving down the highway, detecting no wifi profiles - Switch to 600 MHz, conservative governer.

Arriving at destination, detecting work wifi profile - Switch to 700 MHz, ondemand governer

Arriving back home, detecting home wifi profile - Switch to 800 MHz performance governer.

The popular overclocking app already has profiles, but with no location options! If you programmed the CPU overclocking independantly I would give up SetCPU like it was yesterdays pizza.

[APP] - Profili-Fi v3.0

Hello everyone,

begin to appreciate all comments, criticisms and compliments. Then I must inform that the Profili-Fi v3.0 will be released this summer. (I've been pretty busy with other apps, my main job and family)

The major new features are:

Profiles by location (with or without GPS)

Wifi module handle hidden networks

Add some profile config attributes like:

Fight mode

GPS

Screen bright

Data Traffic

Config priority for Wi-Fi / Location collisions

New UI

Export/Import configs

If you have some suggestions i will be glad.

The first request has already been added to the list of future features, ty anyway.

The second i think its really good idea and i will work on that.

The third is funny but i do not know if it is a must have to the v3.0 Profili-Fi

I would love to meet this request but in order to doing that Profili-Fi had to have root access. Profili-fi its for all phones :P

Anyway will add it to my list of future apps.
