Battery and dayto day use

.

SO GUARANTEED 1 1/2-2 DAYS USE IN MEDIUM TO HEAVY USAGE:

Root the fone, if you do not know how read the forums guides carefully

remove the hub apps and a few others ....choose wisely or check also other posts

Simples....excelent battery life GUARANTEED

A great fone practical for all users

P.S. It's not a secret many have done this
[Galaxy S II General] WarlockM:
Please stop spreading these false things. You charge your phone as you wish, but you have to know some things. And what you say there is some info you picked up from unknown sources.

1. Every phone and device using lithium batteries have protection circuits inside. Discharge limit is at 3.0v. Usually the phone cuts the power between 3.3-3.4v wich is safe.

2. Every time you charge your phone you take 1 cicle from battery life (~500 cicles). So no top or whatever you want to say will do squat. Every charger will charge them at 4.2v and whatever you do it will not get more amps or watts ....

3. Its true, lithium are not influenced by charging them at 70%, 40% ....

The life of lithium batt is simple from day 1 of using it, in time they loose capacity.

Thank you for the excellent response mate
[Galaxy S II General] JuniorGG:
Correct.

And I'll add only one thing: a few full charge - full discharge cycles will increase the precision of the battery charge indicator.

They should be performed from time to time, to keep the indicator and also the battery fit.
[Galaxy S II General] bakili:
I don't know if its true or not, but since i installed one of them app you mentioned (not trying to advertise or sell something), i am seeing really good improvments in my battery life, after 8h on battery life I still have 55% charge left.
[Galaxy S II General] shaevy:
I dont get it. I get more than a day of battery with stock KE2 and 3 push email accounts on for the entire day.

This is an awfull lot better than my diamond2 did,so I am really happy with this battery life.
[Galaxy S II General] RogerPodacter:
Not sure why you think I claimed this, I said nothing about that. What is true is you reduce the battery lifetime by doing full discharges all the time rather than topping up more often, so that the battery might wear out after 12 months rather than 15 months.

Even if that's debatable, I hacked the fuel gauge chip in the n1 and learned pretty much everything you mentioned. I experimented lowering cut off voltage from 3.4 all the way down to 3.0 and even lower. Changed xhqrgw current and all. There's an age register that even counts current and every 300 full discharges it reduces by 1.8% until the battery is considered official dead at 80% age value. Anyway we turned into experts learning the ds2784 fuel gauge data sheet.
[Galaxy S II General] Mittaa:
Same here ... plain out of the box KE2:

No root

No freeze

No Juice defender (for me it uses more battery than it saves)

Samsung Account

Skype

Mobile data enabled

Only updating weather, news and calendar when necessary

Screen brightness 20-30%

Charging whenever I want, and NEVER running battery down below 10%

I get:

1½ day of heavy usage (video, camera, Wifi, GPS, screen on 4~5 hours)

2½ day of normal daily usage (1 hours talk, 1 hours text, 2~3 hours reading news - no Wifi)

4~5 days of light usage (a little talk and text, mostly standby, no Wifi)

Totally happy about battery time :)

I'm sorry you felt 'slagged' off, but there really is no need for the attitude from yourself.

It just felt like deja vu seeing the spam posted all over.
[Galaxy S II General] CandyAndy:
It is just so strange..what am I doing differently. I have never had good battery life. I ended up rooting, freezing, everything and no result. Bad battery. Maybe get 6 hours with moderate usage, big maybe.

KE7. Had the same thing with KE2.

Do you use the native email app? I use that for work mail to push mail. Starting to wonder if that could drain the battery. It is one of the only things I have had in the same setup everytime I have done factory reset etc..
[Galaxy S II General] Mittaa:
I use native e-mail but always manual update. I don't need push ... I get it and read it when I want to.

Same goes with news ... I do not need a widget with "Breaking new" ... I'm used to read the news when sitting in the train to and from work.

Calender and weather updated when screen turns on.

When I'm travelling outside Denmark I sometimes use Skype, but close it completely down after usage (no background service running).

Screen brightness is a battery killer too ... I like it to be 0~30% brightness, and only when outside I push it up to 80~100%. I do not use automatic light sensor.

So I'm very concious about what's running and I kind of like it that way :rolleyes:

Getting all information instantaneous and always stay in touch using widgets has its price ... same goes with live wallpaper and animated weather. It's cool and nice ... and uses battery!

So what do moderate usage mean in your case?

You might have a faulty battery, HW or some bug in SW :eek:
[Galaxy S II General] Edd1234:
Its no secret, its just common sense, or it would be if it actually worked. What has signing in with facebook and twitter got to do with it? and apps on the SD card it will use far more battery?

It doesn't take a genius to realize that not using your phone will conserve more battery. And all the other crap about not signing in to stuff is completely unrelated. If you wanted to completely conserve your battery, as the thread suggests, then why sign into facebook at all?
[Galaxy S II General] le3ky:
To be perfectly honest. I'd rather keep everything on, use android to its fullest, get my 16 hours of battery, and put it on charge every night.

More than 1 day of battery holds 0 interest for me.
[Galaxy S II General] CandyAndy:
Same here. I have no problem to charge every night. I bought the Samsung charging dock and its cool and it will serve as a night clock there.

The problem is that after using my phone for 6 hours now, I am almost out of juice already. If After 16 hours of use I still got 15-20% left I would be perfectly happy with my phone.

I'm running serendipity 6.4

Lately my data just randomly stops working. for a while I was turning data off in the extended power menu after browsing or sending mms or using the market. The last few days ive been keeping it on when I'm not using it. it will say it is on on the notification bar but wont receive any data. If i reboot with data enabled it will fix itself but then I get the amazon market error in some apps saying that I have to reinstall the app. Sound like my ip its getting changed our something? What the bleep is going on here?

Swap modems?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
I have been seeing this as well. The only time I see it is when I am at work.

I stream Pandora as well as use IM+ alll day at work. Pandora has no issues as it caches data, but I see my IM+ connection resetting every so often. Also occassionally when attempting to access the internet the site will be initially unavailable.

I have tried several modems all with the same result, messed around with my band settings and even reflashed my ROM clearing all caches.

I have been watching for someone else with the same issue. This is the first post I have seen addressing it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nawlage:
in addition to my data dropping it also happens with my service, seemingly around the same time if not in unison.

To the above poster: are you running serendipity 6.4 on a captivate?

Note: I had been running serendipity 5.x and switched to phoenix ultimate to test it. Had a bunch of problems with it so i switched back to serendipity. my phone hasn't been the same since. Weird random problems like this. I've odin master cleared and reflashed a coupled times but it didn't bring back my first flawless experience with serendipity before trying phoenix. Maybe I should try the stock rom and see if the problem persists..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
I am running Phoenix Ultimate and always flash back to stock.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nawlage:
I wonder if phoenix has something to do with it. dont see how that would affect me tho since I'm not using it now. I also flash stock and master clear everytime. I did clear dalvik cache as someone motioned earlier and it hasn't happened yet.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nawlage:
i feel i should also mention that i have been seeing a gray icon in my notif. bar which i believe appears during data sync. its like recycle circle. looks pretty much identical to the reboot icon in the extended power menu. so - maybe i have too many apps and too many of those apps are set to auto sync and when they do it jams my data connection. still doesnt explain the affect on the amazon apps tho. im just rattling things off here to try and figure out whats going on and maybe jog someone elses brain in the process.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
I get the sync icon in the notification bar as well. If I refresh gmail it will appear.

I have not heard of any others on the Phoenix ROM having this issue.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nawlage:
I've turned off auto sync in system settings and I haven't had the problem since. Its only been a couple days but so far so good. Still can't figure out why it affects amazon app authentication tho. Only thing I can think of is that with the syncing and data freezing my connection resets and I get assigned a different ip and can no longer validate with amazon.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nawlage:
Still no drops. I'm not having lag issues anymore either. I guess turning off auto sync was the fix. Prolly had a bunch of apps auto-syncing at once.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nawlage:
Well it didn't solve the amazon app force close. Just happened again when I opened gentle alarm.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] jhoelz:
There are some threads indicating this is a problem after the leaked update. I did the official OTA update today and immediately ran into the issue. After doing a factory data reset to make sure i cleared any possible cob webs out the issue was still there. Tablet runs fine while in use, as soon as it goes to sleep it reboots.

I removed the sd card that was installed and the problem went away. Wondering if anyone can confirm......
[Eee Pad Transformer General] meatlocker:
I had the issue initially with the leaked 3.1. I factory reset, wiped caches, and it seemed to go away. About 30 minutes ago, it happened again. BTW, I am on PRIMORDIAL.

Questions for you:

Was the tablet docked at the time (mine was each time)?

Your SD card...are you talking about the miniSD or SD in the dock (I had a mini in the tablet, and SD in the dock)?

What is the brand of the SD card (I have a 16 GB AData micro, and a Patriot Class 6 SD in dock).http://xdaforums.com/newreply.php?do=newreply&noquote=1&p=14345447

Hopefully we can nail this down. Didn't see the issue at all in 3 weeks on 3.01 (Prime), FWIW.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mikewong27:
I have the same issue after installing the "Leaked 3.1 update". It was fine without docking to keyboard dock. I used the tablet itself for one whole day without any reboot. The last few days I noticed that it automatically reboot while in sleep mode as well (while docked to keyboard dock). It happened three to four times yesterday and three times today...

I tried to downgrade from 3.1 to 3.0.1 again this morning (using the official 3.0.1 from Asus website). After downgrading I was getting constant "Force Close" error messages. My tablet was totally useless at that point. I was not able to go into "Recovery Mode" to do a data wipe or factory reset. Only way to recover from this was install the "Leaked 3.1 update" again. I am still having automatic reboot issue with this Leaked 3.1 update. I did not do any cache wipe or factory reset yet. I do not want to reinstall and recofigure all of my apps and emails again...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ruckartj:
I have had the same issue since I installed 3.1 leaked. Symptoms same as above, whereas my tabelt only reboots while docked and after it goes to sleep. I just removed both my external cards to see if that changes anything. I have a Sandisk mircosd HC 16gb in the tab and a Centon SDHC 16gb in the docking station. Hopefully we can nail this down.

Please let us know if you removed your micro of SD in docking station that solved the issue.

Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Reverence12389:
After my official OTA update I have noticed my tablet reboot itself in sleep mode at least three times, and those are the times that I saw. Of note, it WAS NOT docked into the keyboard when it rebooted two of the times, and it might have been docked one of the times. Also, I don't have an SD card installed on mine. I'll let you know if the problem persists.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ruckartj:
update! I have removed my sdcard from my keyboard dock and so far, no reboots while docked. Please post if this has solved anyone else's reboots.

Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] meatlocker:
So, as I suspected. I too have not had the issue since removing my SD card from the dock 2 days ago. I am 100% convinced at this point that the culprit is here, whether it is a bug in 3.1, compatibility with my brand of SD card, or both.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mikewong27:
I did not see reboot after I removed my sd card from my keyboard dock... but I found something suspicious: When my TF is docked to keyboard dock, I will put it to sleep... after few minutes of in-activity, when I tried to wake up the TF... It would not respond. About 30 seconds to 1 minutes later, I will see an Asus logo come up and it goes into the lock screen. I checked my system "up time", it still shows over 20 hours of up time... Really strange... I thought that whenever you see the Asus logo on your screen it means it's booting up or something... Have anyone else seen this happen before? I never seen this happen in android 3.0.1.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mikewong27:
Never mind... My TF rebooted three times today while docked on the keyboard dock... This is when I already removed the external SD card on my dock...

I'm wondering if using the custom rom will resolve this issue?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mikewong27:
I noticed that there are two ramdump files create today after my TF randomly reboot. I opened up the .log files in windows and noticed the following error messages:

<0>[102067.945373] Internal error: Oops: 817 [#1] PREEMPT SMP

<0>[102067.945409] last sysfs file: /sys/devices/platform/tegra-i2c.1/i2c-2/2-0019/power_supply/dock_battery/status

I have no idea what this means...

[Eee Pad Transformer General] goodintentions:
This is exactly why I always wait a couple months before upgrading. Let all you guinea pigs do everything for me first.

What the hell is wrong with these mega companies? Don't they test their own freakin' devices? It's really simple. Before you release an update, test it on your devices first in different situations. It's like asus didn't even bother to do test runs before they released this update.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wekebu:
Unrooted TF here. I always have it docked. Installed the official upgrade as soon as it was available. Played on the tablet for a while, ran a speed test and closed the lid. We've been busy the last couple of days, but after reading about the reboot prob, I opened the tablet every so often to see if I was having the same problem. It was always at the speedtest app, and I simply closed the lid. I'm assuming it never rebooted if it was always at the speedtest app.

Today, I opened the lid, still at the speedtest. I hit the home key, forgot what I did, but it rebooted.

My long-winded point is, does the reboot only happen at the Home screen? I find it odd that for several days this was fine sitting with an app open.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] itchn2go:
I have a unrooted TF and i just updated on Saturday. I know of 1 reboot (docked w/ sd micro card in) but I also saw a 20% battery drop while closed.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] GuardianZX9:
Same issue here

Unrooted Leaked 3.1

MicroSD 32GB Sandisk Class 6

SD In Dock 32GB Class 6 Microcenter Brand

Loaded apps after a hard reset post 3.1, maybe 20 or so apps installed, still observed

the reboot issue, I could be sitting in pandora or slacker and it would reboot.

It would also reboot just sitting at the home screen.

I have hard reset again from the boot loader and have not installed anything, only have gmail configured.

I have removed both flash cards and I will see what happens.

I like 3.1 but this is a PITA.

Thanks in advance.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJEvans:
I believe it's in the kernel information. There are discussions regarding it for the HC rom, but supposedly, the kernels we've been using are .32 or something, and the one that contains the video files we need are on a .36 version, that's a bit more difficult ot work with.

Basically, openGL, as I recall, is part of a video driver that handles 3D rendering, and/or acceleration. Our Gtablets are capable of it, and the froyo builds support it, since we have openGL for them. It's proven more difficult to be able to reverse engineer them for gingerbread or honeycomb roms. Nvidea hasn't provided the drivers for these operating systems (yet) so it's up to developers to attempt to build them from scratch, using existing drivers...
