Try having autosync off just for one night and see how much drain you have. I have the background data flag checked on, am connected to 3g overnight, with the file deleted. Just last night over the last 12 hours the phone went down by only 7% (100 -> 93. Yes I slept a lot lol).

It's currently sitting at 88% after a few sms's, a call and some email checking. Yes it's a little annoying to see Android System/Android OS at the top of the list in battery usage, but the known FD tweaks doesn't really fix that problem (and it won't apparently until 2.3.4 android is out for us) so I don't bother anymore.

I've read some other people that KE7 seems to drain battery faster; try KE2? I'm also using chaimd's heavily undervolted cpu/gpu/lcd/etc kernel, so that might help extend battery life for you a bit.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] NoOneCanHelpMe:
I gave u thanks by mistake :D wanted to quote, would be happy if u return the gesture :P

so

I'm on KE7 stock. I wanted to be as stock as possible.

I have frozen: Social HUb and Email.

I will do more testing tomorrow because when I found out how to fix FD my battery was on 62% (last night) now I have 37% (after moderate to heavy use) :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mofirouz:
Lol, sure!

Thanks for the answer. I have actually deleted ALL the samsung apps (but the mail, I quite like it and the dialer!).

Even after autosync is off, my battery goes down very rapidly. Taken out of charge and no use AT ALL, and already gone down by 3%!!! (10min off charge).
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] NoOneCanHelpMe:
i'm guessing u've tried the FD fix with code *#*#9900#*#*? r u on 3G or wifi most of the time?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] aussiebum:
Have you tried setting Mobile Networks setting to either GSM only or WCDMA only? Jumping between 2g and 3g constantly drains phone battery quite quickly.

I also suggest doing a battery recalibration... there's a couple of threads in xda on this topic, quick search will find those.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] DrLaban:
When I try this in the dialer, nothing happens. Am I supposed to get a menu?

When entering the last "*" the *#*#9900#*#* just dissapers from the screen.

What am I doing wrong?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mofirouz:
No i dont jump around. That happens very rarely. And I have put the phone on GSM-Auto (PRL) Mode. But thanks for the suggestion.

Yes. I did change it with that and disabled Dormancy. The battery seems to 'leak' less nowadays.

Thanks for all your help :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] gabri741:
Followed all the steps on KE7 and all seems to be working as it should for now. Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] NoOneCanHelpMe:
i have no idea why it does not work with you? unless you dont have a galaxy s2 :P

i tried all my friend's S2 and it works :confused:
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] NoOneCanHelpMe:
but did you enable it again?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mofirouz:
yes I did enable it...the battery is much better now...thks
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] DrLaban:
I have a Nordic version of the S2 and nothing happens when I enter that "code" in the dialer. Strange!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cmd512:
Just to confirm:

sqlite> insert into nwkinfo values("310410", "My Carrier", "off", 1500, "", "");

should be

sqlite> insert into nwkinfo values("310410", "My Carrier", "on", 1500, "", "");

if my network supports Fast Dormancy, correct? That field is the "Dormancy" field, I don't think it should be off if your network actually does support Fast Dormancy...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] geistteufel:
Enable / Disable Fast Dormancy could be done with :

*#*#9900#*#*

=> Enable /Disable fast dormancy
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] peax:
Huge thanks for this, made it a lot easier to fix. Now I just have to wait and see if this fixes my battery drain.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] geistteufel:
Your welcome.fast dormancy is design to save battery. But if the network don't support it, it drain battery. It's not easy to know what is better. With our without.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cmd512:
Yes, but that's only part of the fix. Disabling/enabling triggers Fast Dormancy to return yes, which is a big help. But, the OP's suggestions allows you the change the interval at which it polls, which is very helpful as well as honestly, I don't see a reason for it to constantly poll nonstop. Furthermore, my network ID 310410 was not even in the stock nwkinfo list, so adding it is a must if your network supports Fast Dormancy.

But, I would still like clarification on whether the 3rd value below should be "off" or "on." The column name is "Dormancy," so if we intend to use Fast Dormancy even at a longer polling interval, I'm thinking this should be "on." But, the OP recommended "off" for some reason.

[HD7 General] acrobat73:
Hi all, I'm approaching to the world of htc hd7 for the first time... I' m waiting for my new htc hd7 t-mobile coming in a few days and I'm asking if there's any way to debrand it and install a clean european rom with my language (I'm from Italy)... Can you tell me where to find the instructions and which is the last european rom? thanks in advance.

Andrea.
[HD7 General] acrobat73:
I mean "unbrand" not debrand :D
[HD7 General] Idhor Naergon:
I have almost the same issue. I'm brazillian and the English keyboard doesn't have "ã" and "õ" characteres... I want to use Spanish keyboard because of this, so... Anyone could help?
[HD7 General] inconceeeivable:
Is it a US T-Mobile HD7?

If so, I believe a goldcard is the only way to debrand. See this thread.

I'm still trying to figure out if the benefits (quicker updates, etc.) outweigh the issues introduced by using a European radio.
[HD7 General] acrobat73:
Yes It's a T-Mobile US, I looked at that thread... It's not so easy and It needs some items as an usb y-cable, a sd card, a card reader, another smartphone with android... :(

thanks anyway...

hello buddies... Yesterday i installed cm7 beta6 rom on my defy successfully..latr i saw red ginger theme n thought of installing that..i copied it into sd card and after that i needed to flash again but accidently i went into custom rom and clicked apdate zip file from sd card ..it took long in that i thought it has hanged and just rebooted it ...but omg it got caught in infinite boot loop..then i went into recovery mode wiped data , then went into bootloader and installed few sbf but still in boot loop ...in bootloader when i flash sbf after 100% it says manually reboot phone..what does this means.plz help me out ..
[Defy General] anxsds:
Grab the SBF for the original android version for your phone from here if you want to keep downgradability, or any old SBF if you don't mind losing downgradability, then:

Reboot into stock recovery

Turn off phone

Hold volume down and turn on phone

When the exclamation triangle/android appears press volume up and volume down together

Wipe data and cache

Boot into bootloader mode

Turn off phone

Hold volume up and turn on phone

Flash the aforementioned SBF

After that you should then be back to stock, or a stock version of the SBF you chose, from which point you can then go about rooting, installing recovery etc again.

HTH!
[Defy General] grewalaman:
first of thanxs for reply nat... i did same thing ..mine pro is still it is stuck on m logo...i hv booted 3.4.2_155-Fixed.CEE_DEBLUR.. i hv flashed this and it has shown pass on rsd...after that i rebooted mobile but it is still stuck on m logo ... is this all bcoz i tried to update from mine sd card and closed phone in between of updation...can i do update from zip. sd card again

Fixed SBF....I think u should flash Full SBF
[Defy General] grewalaman:
which is the best sbf if hv cm7 beta6 version.. can i contact motorola service centre to get this problem solved...
[Defy General] anxsds:
Yes, sorry I should have made that clear. From where it sounds as though your phone is at the moment, you will need to flash a full SBF as ifu said. Again, remember to use the SBF version that coincides with your original phone firmware if you want to keep downgradability.

Battery Monitor Widget Pro !
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] jonhyxda:
I use BatteryLife.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Mipery:
I like BattStatt, its really nice!

Its Pro version was recently released for

[Wildfire Themes and Apps] GuestK00105:
can i say none?

well not if you are running gingerbread........

I brought juice defender ultimate and i like to think it made a bit of a

difference when running froyo.

Since i began running cyanogenmod i cant see any improvement what so ever-

I believe it may just be the way i personally use my phone;

I am constantly on my phone all day flicking it on and then locking it.

I think it may use alot of power creating a data connection(handshakes with server)

than what it would be if it was just left running in the background.

Bluetooth is never switched on, Gps on all the time,

I get 2 days usage typical/ I see roughly a 8- 10% drop per hour when listening to music on my headphones

If you dont use your phone alot you may see more of a difference.

Only my personal experience
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Adolan:
Battery Monitor Widget Pro indeed.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] trippinz:
use PowerTime as it tells you aproximately how long your battery will last you. It is also very customizable as a widget and it tells you how long your battery will last you according to your overall battery usage stats.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Frank C:
Is there a free version of PowerTime available?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] wolfway:
is it this one? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=724778

I have wanted to use that myself but have not figured out for wildfire. Did the desire files work or did you have to recompile for the wildfire?

Do you also know if you can flash this over an existing theme you're using?

About the battery app. Don't use any widget, every widget consumes battery life. I just use the option in cyanogenmod that has a little color bar and the percentage number next to it... And the circulars posted above make it even cooler.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] somashekhar:

[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
I've realised I can't use adb when in recovery, looked in device manager and there is no ADB Interface (or whatever) driver, only the LGE Compositeblah one.

I've presumably got this from using the Smartflash driver pack (which works fine for ADB outside of recovery), anyone know where I can find a driver that works?
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Same problem... but it used to work.

I think LG borked it in their latest driver release. I'm not home at the moment but I think there is v2.1, v2.2 and v3.1 (or similar) and I think >v3 broke mine... but I've not reverted yet to test.

Unless it was the new "official" CWM recovery that broke it... I can't remember timing but I'm sure Paul's original recovery supported it with the LG drivers.

I got it to work by grafting the SDK driver in but then that breaks ADB and LG PC software when you're not in recovery... :-/
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Fixed in v3.1.0.1, can ADB and mount USB with the same LG drivers that CM7 uses.

However there are a a lot of "can't mount /cache/recovery/" errors, so might not be good to use for now.

Also can navigate with the softkeys, which is handy.
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
v3.1.0.1 of what? LG's drivers or recovery? I can only find CWM 3.0.2.8...

[Thunderbolt General] doomedromance:
I am really really sick of this Droid 2 that VZW replaced my Droid with. I'm sick of Moto services invading my phone and slowing it down. There's no true ASOP build. This phone sucks balls.

I was set on buying an Incredible 2 OoC b/c it was cheap at $440 and saving my upgrade till later, but where I'm moving to next week already has LTE towers.

Do I really want to wait 2 months using this laggy trash? And possibly end up getting a TB anyway because the other phones coming out suck.

Or do I want to get a TB and save my upgrade till later in the Q4 2011/Q1 2012 when NFC Ice Cream Sandwich phones come out.
[Thunderbolt General] doomedromance:
Don't want a Charge, poor build material choices.

Don't want a Revolution. Bing...
[Thunderbolt General] Tidbits:
Does it really matter? Not really... You just root and you can put whatever you want and however you want.

Motorola tends to lock their bootloaders and make it hard to do what you want.

Samsung stated that they'll never lock it that way(Not in those words, but given the sense that they will leave it open)

HTC has been locking down their devices, but not as tough as Motorola does.

So basically pick a device with the hardware you want, and make sure it's root and you can install custom roms/kernels.
[Thunderbolt General] TheStick13:
The T-Bolt is a great phone, and it has excellent community support. I have absolutely no complaints about my phone (aside from the battery life).

That being said, the Galaxy S II that's coming out looks sexy as hell. It might be worth the wait to hold out for that. Honestly, it's totally up to you.

There was talk about tiered 4G plans, which is what made me opt for the early upgrade to the T-Bolt (hoping to be grandfathered in to unlimited 4G). I haven't heard much on that front, but it's still a possibility.
[Thunderbolt General] cwininger:
wait a few months

from everything i've ever read about samsung phones, their software support is absolutely horrible. slow updates, faulty gps etc. i've heard a ton of people complain about the issue, and it seems to be the case with all their phones... never had one, but that's the impression i get.

the thunderbolt is a decent phone, but all it really has over the droid x is 4g. the t-bolt screen might be a little better, but not much. in day to day use it's not faster, the battery isn't even close and the build quality of the DX is equal or better. if i were you i would pick up a DX on craigslist for $175 and save your upgrade for a few months. The dx has even more dev support than the T-bolt and it's the best phone I ever had.

bottom line is, if you really want 4g speeds right now, really really bad, then get the thunderbolt. if you can do without that for awhile i think you will be really happy with a DX, especially after using the Droid 2, and you'll spend less than half the money.

the above is just my .02.
[Thunderbolt General] 00negative:

[Thunderbolt General] mph122074:
I bought mine off contract and am very happy I did it. Yes there are a few issues, but nothing a little root cant fix.

Though waiting a few months for a better phone won't hurt, the TB is a great choice.

[Thunderbolt General] sublimaze:
Once you get a taste of 4G, you will never want a phone that is 3G only. So if you are moving to 4G area and don't want to pay full retail, I suggest you get a used Tbolt from craigslist and use it until something comes along that you like better, then sell the Tbolt
[Thunderbolt General] ElectroFetish:
i love my TB, i have it rooted with das bamf NTE 1.6.3 and its about the coolest thing since MP3s.. as with others, the battery life on this thing is fkin AWFUL!! i have the extended battery and i still dont feel like its enough, however i use my phone probably more than i should or more than others. either way the LTE network is retarded fast and i'd never want 3g.
[Thunderbolt General] miketoasty:
First off I just want to say I owned a droid 2 and it wasn't that bad. I jumped to the thunderbolt just to lock in the 4g rate. The bigger screen is a nice plus but other than that is the same thing. I wasn't overly impressed as other owners of the droid x and 2 have stated is not that big of a jump.

Before I end let me just say other than software wise android phones are exactly where I want them. I don't need a dual core chip in my phone and 4g is. good enough for anything I would ever want to do with my phone. I'm sure most of you will disagree but that's just how I feel. Flame away!
[Thunderbolt General] phatcat73:
I picked up a TB on craigslist for $350. The custom roms still seem a bit premature, however they should evolve over time. Nonetheless it's an amazing phone. If you have a desk job or spend a lot of time in your car, the battery life is not much of an issue. Just stay plugged in.
[Thunderbolt General] zskate311:
Got my TB off Craigslist for a fascinate trade plus 150$. I love it so far.. 4g is amazing..once you.have it you won't want to go back.

Roms are not bad. I'm waiting for a complete cm7 or sense 3.0 rom but other than that das bamf runs fantastic.

If you have the cash and want a great phone with a growing dev community, go for it.
[Thunderbolt General] doomedromance:
Thank you for all the input.

It's funny the other 2 forums told me I'm a moron and this one says Buy a TB!!!

I use over 2GB of data a month so the 4G unlimited (Hopefully grandfathered for life) makes it very tempting since my upgrade isn't till mid July which is around the time the rumors of tiered data plans landing. I'm also not to optimistic about an actual new phone coming out then. Maybe the SGSII but I really hate the fact that it doesnt have a search button. It's a damn Google phone and I use the search button all the time, for GOOGLE, not Bing!

I didn't even think about craigslist. That might be a good option.

As for a cheap DX. No way. It basically is a D2 minus the keyboard. I like the keyboard, I can sacrifice it for a 4G newish phone but not for an X. and I hate the Blur invasion, and locked bootloader. My D2 has been running custom roms. They're just too laggy and buggy still. Fab, Kejar, and Rummy are awesome, but they all had DXs and the D2 ports were just not good. Most of it I blame on Blur still having to be in there. I've been running GB stock blur and custom and for the first time since my D1 ADW launcher gets kicked out of memory and has to reload when I hit home.... I hate it.
