[Verizon Droid Charge] Rememo:
Yikes!

This time around (meaning after a full charge), I'm at 43% and the phone has been unplugged for "1 day 10 hours 55 minutes 29 seconds." This was with 4G and GPS enabled all day yesterday, and 4G and GPS turned OFF today since I was at work.

I have good days and bad. Some days the battery seems to drain really fast and other days it seems to last forever.

Having my Charge for 6 weeks now, I really think battery life is more of network/radio thing than anything else. Unfortunately we don't have much control over that except to just shut it all off and only turn it on when we need it.

Great work Donaldo. Run it for four days. Have not found a single issue. Still looking. Battery life still can be better after calibration. But I always have a fully charged spare. So it's working for me.
[Verizon Droid Charge] tkm20:
criticalhit,

How do you calibrate your battery? I'm running v1.4 with mod. to heavy use and losing around 8-10% an hour. Do you use the app or just charge to 100% and then drain it all the way?
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
I hope you mean 1.42... 1.4 is battery hog. I did not use the app to calibrate ... I bump charged like 15 times then cwr cleared the bat stats. The only thing I did different was plug it in as soon as it hit 0% and charged it all the way back to 100% while it was still on ( as an experiment, opposed to fully charging while off after first full discharge after clearing stats) I have actually have had better results. If my battery keeps going the way it has on this charge I will hit 41 hours to 0%
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
I figured the system would not store any information while it was off charging. You need to drain to 0% then plug in and charge while on 3 or 4 times for the system to get enough info locked in (from what I understand) then you can charge whenever. And you must unplug immediately at 100% do not leave it plugged in as these phones do not trickle charge. Meaning the system will shut off charging at 100% and will still show 100% even though it will drain to 99%-90% even when plugged in. That's why some people loose 1%-10% in the fist half hour or so because the system will realize that your batter isn't actually full anymore so it will drop quickly to catch up with the actual data the battery is sending.
[Verizon Droid Charge] tkm20:
Nice. What is bump charge? I just flashed 1.42.

Also, when it says we need to clear cache. Does that mean the option in cwr that reads "wipe cache partition"?
[Verizon Droid Charge] criticalhit:
call me lol i will explain i dont feel like typing it out 9258130990

edit: or see my previous post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15857173&postcount=1016

clear battery stats in advanced menu

but remember when i say to charge to 100% while off after first discharge leave the phone ON! so right when it hits 0% plug it in and make sure you keep it plugged in until 100% then immediately unplug and repeat this 3-4 times. So bump charge, clear battery stats, drain to 0%, plug in at 0% leave phone ON charge to 100%, and repeat 4 times minus the bump and clear. bumpcleardrainchargedrainchargedrainchargedraincharge.

[Verizon Droid Charge] SlickNashville:
CriticalHit and Danalo

I have just for the first time in reading saw where someone recommended clearing the Cache partition prior to an install. I came to Humble from the Altered Beast ROM with the red text CWM and I don't think I cleared Cache partition before I used ODIN to flash to Humble 1.42. I thik there was another clear cache option and I chose that one, fearing the thought of clearing a partition of any kind.

Would this have any effect on battery life or does that simply deal with the flashing of the ROM?

I say this because I am still having battery issues. I was unplugged in a 4g area for only 9 hours today after full 100 % "on" charge and bumped twice to 100 again before leaving the charger alone. At the nine hour mark my battery was showing a 9. I did run the battery monitor widget today trying to keep an eye on it. I talked less than 30 minutes among 3 or 4 calls, about 40 minutes of Angry Birds, and total screen on time was 2 hrs 20 minutes, mostly texting and occassional browsing. No video or music streaming all day. I am curious what I need to do to improve this.

CriticalHit, you seem to have the best battery life........should I bump every day for several days in a row? Should I wipe battery stats again and again?

Critical Hit....Are you in a 4 g area? Do you turn 4g off?

I am having no operational issues whatsoever with the ROM......GREAT WORK....enjoying this new challenge

Secondly, Thanks Danalo! Have tried several ROMS and holy smokes is Humble fast!

Thirdly, need help! Had Humble 1.42 running nicely but recently upgraded to Titanium Pro and overdid it with the "freeze" option. This morning, my Charge is stuck in bootloop at the red eye. Should I just reflash Humble in CWR? Will Titanium save my frozen settings sending me back into bootloop?

I am just curious if flashing 1.42 via ODIN contains root?

I am coming over from the Fascinate and have been around this forum as well as AC for a while now. Getting my Charge tomorrow, so I am doing as much research as possible.

From my understanding, in the OP, it says if I am coming from stock, to just flash via ODIN (after a data wipe) so I am assuming this will root my phone as well.

Am I correct in this assumption?

Loved the Fascinate, but I am really looking forward to being a part of the Charge forum!

Couldn't agree more myself. I have solid 4G most places I'm at. However 2 weeks ago I was in the city ( Chicago ) where LTE is rock solid and I noticed a MAJOR increase in battery life when downtown. As soon as I got back home it was back to the norm of eating up more battery.

[Verizon Droid Charge] mintcookies:
What setting should be used for wifi sleep policy? If I set wifi to sleep when screen is off and leave the mobile data on, will it switch to 3G/4G when screen is off? Wouldn't think is very battery friendly if the phone continuous switches between mobile/wifi... or should wifi just be set to never sleep?

I'd prefer to still receive emails and notifications when then screen is off, so what's the best/battery-friendly setting to do that?

[Verizon Droid Charge] mrpickem:
I've had my Droid for 3 weeks now. I really like the phone, I ran it stock for a couple days, then I've been on Humble ever since 1.33. Excellent development with only minor issues. My battery has been decent not great, unit is very fast and gets solid 4g speed. I usually get 15-18 hours on a charge with wifi, gps & 4g always running. I stream google music, play a few games, text, etc. Maybe not a power user but well above normal,

I will say I came from an HTC EVO 4G with evo_deck rom and that rom is as polished as I've seen. I got better battery life from the EVO and it was a year old(batt too). The EVO was a great phone and well before it's time.

The Droid is better because of Big Red, the amoled screen, and the speed. I wish they would have included more ram & the Sammy's have a kinda cheap plasticy feel as compared to the HTC's imho.

That beings said I am happy with the Charge and this Humble rom for the time being. Great job Danalo and everyone else that helps with support.

New poster here. Just wanted to say thanks Danalo for this great ROM and look forward to every update. Will be donating soon.

As for the question posted above:

Screen Filter is to conserve battery life. From my understanding the AMOLED screen uses the least amount of energy displaying blacks, and therefore tinting everything towards that end of the spectrum will help to conserve energy while the screen is on.

Looks like my phone was at 100% around noon today. I can't really say how well the bump charge worked. I played angry birds for a good 25-35 mins and the battery went from 70%+ to 47%+ earlier today. Around 5:30p the phone was down to 19% only using texts/emails and looked up a few things on the web. Charged it for a good 1.5 to 2 hours while I was at the gym with my car charger around 7:00p to get it to 47%...btw, when I got back to my truck my phone felt like it was on fire...so that's all I have so far...good? bad?
[Verizon Droid Charge] paul25rs:
The single most helpful thing for my battery was to turn off 4g when you are letting it idle. Every time I saw severe battery drain, it was because of my phone constantly searching for a 4g signal. If you tried calibrating your battery and you are getting battery drain, bump charge the phone in the morning and try turning off 4g ( I use lte switch) for a day to see what your battery is like. You can bump charge simply by unplugging the phone at 100% and then plugging it back in immediately if you already calibrated. This will let you regain the extra 5% that the phone lost while staying plugged in at full charge.
[Verizon Droid Charge] tkm20:
My city has a strong 4G signal, therefore, my phone shouldn't be constantly searching for signal...right?
[Verizon Droid Charge] mrtruckincowboy:
true but 4g uses alot more battery than 3g if you are worried about battery and you dont need to use the 4g id turn it off till you need it.

[Verizon Droid Charge] paul25rs:
I was in Manhattan which is an area with a very strong 4g signal but I did notice that it jumped over to 3g every so often. Even when i was using wifi, i saw the phone turning the 4g on here and there. One day with 4g on, battery died at 9 hrs. The next day with 4g off, I was at 60% at 9 hrs
[Verizon Droid Charge] JOrtenzi:
I habe been told by samsung reps that car chargers are really not that good for your battery. Especially if you use them to charge for a long period of time (30 min+). I keep mine in my car for emergencies. I used to plug my phone into everytime I was in the car, regardless of charge, it it basically ruined my battery of my old phone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] tkm20:
I take it since then you're straight 3g now? Only time I could see using 4g is for download large files, streaming videos and navi.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Tucknology:
This makes no sense. A quality car charger won't cause any problem. A cheapo car charger is a cheapo charger and that's a separate story. A quality charger has ICs that provide regulation and intelligent charging. Crappy chargers can damage the battery by overcharging, hence the 30 minute limit claim. Bottom line: stay away from that eBay seller in Hong Kong.

If you are having considerable battery drain with this phone you'll probably benefit from turning off the 4G radio and using only 3G. There are apps to help with this, or you can just change the setting located at

Settings > Wireless & network > Mobile Networks > System Selection > CDMA Mode.

I will switch to 4g when i am plugged in or when i actually need it. As soon as I am done, I switch to 3g while it idles. There is no point in having 4g on when the phone is in your pocket or doing nothing on your desk.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JOrtenzi:

No Internal Memory

Hello -

I was running the stock EE4 before following the instructions as described on the first post for new installations of Humble 1.42.

I had wiped data, cache, and sd card. I successfully installed the drivers, Odin3 v1.82 and was able to flash Humble with no problems.

However, after booting up my phone I do not have any available internal storage on the device. I have tried to mount and format the /data partition (which I assume is the missing internal storage) but was unable to do either in the CWM 4.0.0.8 as provided in Humble 1.42.

I tried reflashing, and even flashed another ROM (EE4stock_DXC.tar.md5) - which completed successfully and showed the full 1.1GB of internal memory available. I once again reflashed with Humble 1.42 - but however, still have no internal memory.

I wiped cache and data in between flashes using the provided recovery programs for each respective ROM. I am new to the Android operating system (former iPhone user) and loved the Humble Rom (for the few hours I played with it.)

I googled and searched for answers - the only other person to seem to have this problem was able to solve by reflashing - which did not work for me.

Thank you in advance for any help.

This rom is awesome only thing I don't like, im always on 3g so I have to manually turn 4g back on. Any chance this could be fix? Like a new radio or back to humble 1.4 radio. I would always have it on with no problems.
[Verizon Droid Charge] soljafree:
Thanx man will try in the morning
[Verizon Droid Charge] paul25rs:
This is what I did...

Download the stock ee4 non rooted rom with imnuts pit file. Put the phone into download mode and flash with odin and make sure that repartition gets checked when you add the pit. Once you are back to stock, make sure that your internal storage is working again. Then put the phone back into download and flash the 1.42 humble in odin. When it boots into recovery, wipe data and cache only and then reboot device. You should start hearing voodoo lagfix do its thing. If. It says not enough space, then you are still going to have the same problem. If it enables lagfix correctly, then you should be good to go. The first time I tried it, I wiped the sdcard in recovery and tried to enable lagfix on first boot. That is when I ran into the problem. Try doing it without those steps.
[Verizon Droid Charge] will2live:
Not exactly true, but in theory should be. Just because an area is cover by LTE does not mean it will alwyas have a signal. Many reasons why it may not but either way it can still drop LTE and may look/search for 3G or even 1X worst case. That said IMO unless you absolutely need LTE all the time which I find hard to believe most folks do. Why leave it on all the time eating up battery for no reason. LTE Switch makes life quick and easy to change back and forth between 3G and LTE.

For the Froyo builds there is only 2 different radios to even use. And currently all the ROMs on the float are using the same EE4 radio. IE there is no difference between this one and the one in Danos last build.
