[Samsung Infuse 4G] wvcraft:
As someone who was looking to extend battery life, I downloaded "Battery Widget". After 9 hours off the charger and maybe 2 1/2 hours with the display on, I looked to see what was using up the battery the most. Everything from the OS to web to Wi-Fi was at no more than 2% but the display was at 95%. I know its a huge display and its going to use a lot of battery but is this much normal? The battery was dead in about 10 hours.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Mr Jason:
Sounds like you have the brightness up on it, I would turn it down a little if you have not done so already. Mine is on about a quarter brightness and it is only 79% and the battery lasts the entire day.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] keitht:
Are you on stock ROM? If so, you may want to consider flashing a custom ROM. When I flashed Infused ROM, my battery life significantly improved. And I am not exaggerating... I would drop 100 > 90% in about 5 hours before, now I can easily go 9-10 hours from 100 > 90% with light use.

Regarding display, please see this thread which may help with that:

[Samsung Infuse 4G] wvcraft:
My screen was on 100%. I changed it to 50%. Hopefully I will see a difference.

I am on stock ROM, however, I've been looking alot into Infused. This is my first android phone and I'm a little weary of custom ROMs being buggy. But of course those fears are pretty much unfounded since I've never seen a phone with a custom ROM in use.

BTW, thank you guys, or gals, for such quick responses.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] keitht:
I understand your concerns and if you are not comfortable, do not do it. However, I can say that the Infused ROM works much better for me than the stock ROM and I highly recommend it. It is much faster and better on battery. I can tell you that the version of Infused ROM I am on is not buggy and much better than stock. Cannot say anything about the latest version since I decided to stay on a previous version because I am so happy with it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] eatjello:
with your brightness up to 100%, i'm not surprised your display eats so much battery.

i'm still on stock and i used to run my display at 50% all the time. then i turned it down to 0% and i still have no issues seeing the screen in any kind of light, even outside. i only turn the brightness up to 50% when i'm playing a game or watching a video.

try 0%, you'd be surprised!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] abudabu:
I have the nexus S and the Infuse. You're right, for some reason the Infuse Display percentage is WAYYY high!! My brightness is usually at 50%. But the Display is the cause of 90% of my battery drainage. It's very weird.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] wvcraft:
Okay so an update.... I've had my screen on 0% for the past couple days and I installed infused a couple of days ago as well. I haven't seen any kind of improvment. ( display is still in the 85%-90% range of battery usage.) Is it possible I just have a defective phone? I love this phone and but im really frustrated with havung to keep an eye on how much juice I have left
[Samsung Infuse 4G] reverendmilo:
What activities are you doing on your phone? Are you watching video or just emailing?

Even knowing that, I'm not sure what percentage one should expect the display to consume

[Samsung Infuse 4G] jesi.james:
Huh weird. Im running stock and I had brightness around 30 to 40 percent and my usage for the screen was 66 percent after like 6 to 7 hrs
[Samsung Infuse 4G] wvcraft:
No I'm not watching videos. Just using the web, words with friends, messaging, and messing around with the home screen.

A little more info...... last night I unplugged my phone from the charger at 4 am with 100% charge. When I woke at 8:30 am it had 97% charge and said the display was causing 37% of the drainage( I hadn't touched it since 4:00 am). At 8:40 I started playing around on XDA app and, starting at 97%, after twenty five minutes I'm now down to 88% battery with the display causing 80% of the drainage.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] knight4led:
It is all a matter of how much you are using your phone and how long the screen is on for. It is not unusual for the screen to eat up 75% or more of your battery power if you are contastly turning the screen on or viewing things on it.

My display is sitting at around 80% right now, and on my old Nexus One, it was usually around 78%.

I don't take personal calls while at work, so almost all of what I do with my phone while at work keeps the display on constantly. I do text and check websites that are blocked at work as well as conduct all personal or financial business using my phone.

Things like calls turn the display off and other things like streaming or playing music will let the display time out and keep working.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] reverendmilo:
The things you are doing are not processor intensive, wifi intensive, radio intensive, but do work the screen.

Are you running a live wallpaper?

sent from my fancy pants Samsung Infuse
[Samsung Infuse 4G] wvcraft:
No I'm not using live wall paper. I understand that the display is going to use a lot of battery. I guess what I'm asking is it normal for the battery to go down 10% points while looking at Xda forums for twenty minutes. If its normal ill deal with it but if its not I can still take it back and replace it. And thank you all for taking an interest in this thread.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] knight4led:
Actually my experience is that the XDA app has some sort of memory leak. It takes a long time to load for me and crashes about 20% of the time for me. I use the browser most the time, and find it is very well optimized for smartphones.

And yes, your battery use is fairly normal if you aren't gaming, phone calling or downloading. In fact my use is at 87% for the screen. But still, I have 70% battery left and only an hour more of work.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] JeremyE77:
I am not sure if I can explain this properly. I am not a word person.

What you see is a rolling average. If you were to not use the phone at all. Let it sit completely idle without firing on the display. You would see that the display is using a low to zero percentage (of course you could not, in fact, see that). You would find that wifi or 3g or android system (or some other task) are at 95% more or less.

The display being the most power consuming component on the device will make a dramatice change to these percentages the moment your fire it. Turning on the display simply to check the battery stats will have run the display's battery percent far higher than the others quicker than you can probably even get to the screen to check the stats.

Keep in mind this is a rolling average. It does not indicate fault or that the display is CONSTANTLY drawing 95% of the battery. It is just using 90% more of the the battery than something at 5% when it is in use.

One should chalk this up to completely normal. Make a poll if you want. You are likely to find near 100% of respondents will reply that display is highest in their stats (unless they have some kind of accessory or something that draws more power)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] h8rift:
Nexus S = TFT LCD

Infuse = SAMOLED

To reduce battery drain from screen...use more blacks. Black on SAMOLED screens are actually pixels turned off...while TFT LCD and retina displays jave a pixel displaying black.

Hope this helps put more into perspective.

I picked up my tab this morning and have had a hell of a time mounting it as USB storage to transfer movies and pics ect... but I figured it out so I thought I'd share with the XDA community simply because there really isnt anything out there that I could find on Google.

1. download USB drivers from samsung: http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/ga...eration+-+10.1+Tab_Galaxy+Tab_galaxy+tab+10.1

2. install drivers

3. reboot pc

4. turn off usb debugging... VERY IMPORTANT AS IT IS ENABLED BY DEFAULT

5. plug in via usb

6. enjoy!!

Works to transfer "recognized" files extensions. However things like .mkv or .mpg make windows explorer crash. When I transferred an avi file it wanted to convert it. Seriously, WTF samsung? I loved your stuff but this is a bit much. I should be able to treat it like an SD card.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] slombar:
Been having the same problem. Transferring .wmv or .mov files makes my pc crash. Although I was able to plug it into a different pc and it was automatically recognized as USB and worked fine. I wonder if it has anything to do with my galaxy s drivers.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] ericc191:
It works, but not as a removable storage device. It sees it as a portable device, which isn't as good. :(
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Diversion:
This is pretty useless.. it's treated like Apple treats their devices... as some kind of media device and not just a regular drive.

Looks like a large oversight on Samsung's side.. can be easily fixed, luckily.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] stinky73:
What are you lot talking about?

You do, unfortunately, need latest version of kies installed, USB debugging switched off, plug the thing in and is recognised as a removable drive... you don't need to use kies but is just active in the background and displayed on screen of tab...

All files transfer no problem including .mkv .AVI etc. If your explorer crashes it is a problem with explorer... sometimes caused by other software that is integrated into explorer contextual menus...ie if you have a bootcamp Mac with macdrive installed the explorer pane ( tree listing) will always crash explorer if you try to copy and paste from there... you have to do it from the large pane on right...

Hope this helps
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] stinky73:
Forgot to say if you're having driver problems the latest is here

http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/GT-P7510UWVXAB

Install drivers from executable file downloaded from above...

When you connect your tab Best way to ensure satisfactory installation is to ignore " found new hardware blah blah, search for drivers blah blah" go to device manager find the non installed Samsung, right click and select update drivers, browse... the above installed drivers are in program files, Samsung, usb drivers... select USB drivers folder, validate et voila ;)

Hi jhild352!

Honeycomb tablet cannot be mounted as mass storage, for the simple reason there is no more real sdcard formated in Fat32.

/dev/block/mmcblk0p4 /system ext4 ro,relatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0

/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /cache ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0

/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /data ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0

/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /efs ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0

/dev/fuse /mnt/sdcard fuse rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=1023,group_id=1023,default_permissions,allow_other 0 0

Everything is in Ext4, and sdcard is "emulated" via fuse.

That's why Honeycomb tablets use MTP instead, which I agree sucks.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] bella92108:
Wonder if anyone's figured out a way to get this ****er mounted in Mac.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] jhild352:
Yes this is true... my bad for wording it the wrong way. I simply ment that you could plug it into a PC and transfer pics/movies/song ect
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] jman391:
Kies works well for music, photos, and movies, but how would I go about putting a book on it without using dropbox? Why couldn't they just make it to where we could mount it as a drive like with an sdcard?! Samsung, you make everything overly difficult!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] sts_fin:
Excatly the same way that it works on the Xoom, funny that has been such a big issue. (ok on the xoom it works also with the debugging on)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] grellanl:
On the upside, the new ext4-based arrangement gives Honeycomb a unified internal storage, which is really great. Avoids the whole business of contention, and mounting internal storage that the device may be using for other things. Allows proper permissions to be applied. I don't particularly have an issue with MTP either, for media transfers. Obviously this isn't an issue with cloud-based ways of getting media onto the device, which is the way things are heading.

But I think this is why having an SD card slot is still valuable, and Sammy made a mistake not putting one in the Gtab10.1 - using SD card you can just pop some movies onto your tablet from your PC, or have multiple SD cards at the ready - same for having a blank SD at the ready for updates. It's a far better arrangement than mounting internal storage, IMHO.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] nobleskill:
I know its not really the solution to the issue but an obvious workaround would be wifi file explorer? I think I remember even using adhock and then using the PC browser to upload and download the files. Not ideal but atleast enables quick updates of media and such.

If its only got ext4 its never going to mount in dozzz no later the drivers/programs ect. I had a hell of a time trying to get some media of a popcornhour a-100.. long story short ended up just ftp'ing everything off. Hey what about andftp too?

Or a live Linux distro might do the trick.. lol six to one on any time savings but could work??

AFTERTHOUGHT: Hmm I'm wondering if android commander would cope? I'm sure I've used it on a ext4 ROM and pushed stuff into the system partition. Or is that trickery on its part? I'd have a crack... but I'm on my p1000 for a little longer... :-(

Hey guys, I'm going nuts over what I'm doing wrong. I'm trying to encode some MKVs and AVIs to MP4 so that I can copy them to my SDCard to play on my transformer.

I've tried using the guide and the presets offered in:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1060825

but nothing I encode will play on the Transformer. I've tried with RockPlayer, MoboPlayer, and the native player and they all say they cannot open the file. I know it's not the Transformer or the SDCard because another video I downloaded already in MP4 format plays perfectly. What am I missing????

Edit: Forgot to mention, the videos that I encode play perfectly fine on my computer.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] hoy128:
I don't know why I didn't do this before but I copied some of the "non-working" MP4 files to the internal memory of the Transformer and it plays. Anyone have any ideas as to why these converted MP4 files won't play off my SDCard?

I do have an MP4 movie on my SDCard and it plays so I know my SDCard is functional. Just for kicks, I encoded these new movies to be smaller than my working movie and still nothing.....my head is getting lumps from banging it on the table lol...

[Eee Pad Transformer General] orcrist86:
It looks like a read speed issue. Borrow one from a friend, maybe one with a higher class
[Eee Pad Transformer General] foxmeister:
Whilst I wouldn't discount the card itself, the class of the SD card is purely about write speed anyway. FWIW, I've been using Sandisk 16gb class 2 cards in my Android devices for a couple of years now, and never had a speed issue - the read speed is generally around 20mbps, and a write speed of 6mbps (well above the class minimum).

Regards,

[Eee Pad Transformer General] jerrykur:
Strange. I have dozens of mp4 videos on my mSD card and they play fine. The card is a 32GB class 2 Sandisk. I just select the card from the well on the bottom of the screen and open one of the .mp4 files. I assume that it launches the stock video player.

FWIW, all of my files are from regular DVDs, not from Blu-ray disks.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] hoy128:
Thanks for the replies guys.

While continuing my troubleshooting of this. What I did is pulled the card out and reformatted it as Fat32. While I had the card still in my card reader, I copied all my files back onto it. What I noticed is that after I placed the card back into the Transformer, 1/2 of my directories were missing. It looks like they were moved to the LOST.DIR folder.

I'm not too familiar with Linux but from googling, it looks like the LOST.DIR is a folder that the Transformer would move "corrupted" files during the scan of the SD Card. I'm leaning towards a faulty card. Since I just flashed the ROM on my phone, I don't have too much information on my SD Card there. I guess I'll pull the SD Card from my phone and test on my Transformer for a couple of days. If it proves to be my SD Card, I guess I'll try to get a refund or a replacement. If it is my SD Card, lesson learned, don't buy SD Cards from eBay.....spend the extra $15 from a reliable source.....

Thanks again for all the replies guys. I'll update this thread again after I figure out what it is in case someone else runs into this issue in the future.

I've lost the functions of my home and search buttons . . . I thought I remembered testing long press voice search with long press when I was setting things up and it worked and the short presses of both buttons worked. I don't remember using a long press on the home button. As it is now a short or long press on home doesn't go to the home screen or bring up recently used apps. The search short and long presses doesn't bring up general search or voice search.
