Sorry for the late reply, but I just wanted to give the app a thorough usage. I'm happy to say it really makes a difference. I was so disappointed with the battery life that I had a serious bout of buyer's remorse. This App made a world of difference. Thanks for the suggestion! Glad to have this phone now. Check out the screen shot! :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mike-y:
Nice!! that's great. I liked the beta app so much I went ahead and paid for the "plus" version. "Plus" gives JD control over wifi, and lets you set a "night mode" that turns off data/wifi/gps/bluetooth during the night when you sleep. There is also app control, which I played with, but ended up just disabling it (makes things a lot simpler).

Honestly, if the beta is working for you, there isn't much need for the paid versions. especially if you put your phone in airplane mode when you got to sleep (or just turn it off).

btw, current uptime = 40 hours, 45 mins, and I still have 70% battery left. :D

It seems to me Battery Calibration doesn't work...however, this phone lasts longer than the Sensation, which personally sucks.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
battery calibration works fine. make sure your phone is charged to 100%. check spare parts amd make sure it is at 4200mV. sometimes, if it is not calibrated properly, it will show 100% and not 4200. unplug the phone and immediately plug it back in and you will notice a fluctuation in the numbers. usually, it is a big fluctuation. once you are as close to 4200 as you think you are going to get while the phone is plugged in, open the battery calibration app and click calibrate. then immediately unplug the phone. use it until it is completely dead (i do it until i shuts down). once this is done, charge the phone until it is 100%. do no unplug the phone until it is at 100%. then drain it again. and charge it to 100% again. after that, use it normally for 2 to 3 days and you will notice the difference in efficiency.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
I would like to add that the first charge drains amazingly fast. You can be idling your phone the whole day, and it'll still be gone.

After you go through a few charges, it'll be omgwtfbbqhax battery life. :)

Btw, I'm betting Bali 3.3UV + JD is pretty beast battery life compared to Bali 3.3 + JD, right?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danstek:
Recently I started using a Bluetooth mouse with my tab and I noticed that my wifi connection and speed would sometimes randomly drop. At first I though it was my router but both my laptop and phone had a stable connection via wifi. I decided to run several speed tests on the tab, first with Bluetooth off, then again with it on. With BT off, I averaged 3-4 Mbps which is my normal connection but with BT on, the speeds stuttered between 400-900 kbps. I know BT will cause some interference with wifi but I didn't expect it to be that severe. Is anyone else having the same issue?

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PCdumb:
Hi,

I don't have sufficient posts to be able to participate directly in that forum, so have no other choice but to raise my queries here.

I've just flashed over from Overcome "Hermes" to "Jupiter". All's well except that the battery performance is quite drastically affected for me.

I've been reading the improved battery life "Jupiter" gets over earlier versions of the Overcome ROMs, but I seem to be experiencing the opposite.

Already did the batt stat wipe via recovery menu. Do I need to so call "run-in" before it reflects correctly? Even if accuracy is one thing... but dropping 3% just on bootup.... is this typical of an uncalibrated battery?

Appreciate any advise here on what I should do. (Apart from a fresh wipe install :rolleyes:)

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongski55:
I appreciate the enthusiasm these coding geniuses have in rolling out update after updates in the ROMS yet I am apprehensive about the effect of these frequent flashing on the Galaxy Tab components itself. This includes the battery.

My job involves electronic repair and there is a so called number of hours before an equipment goes for a thorough check(preventive maintenance) say for example 1000 hours on a meter. Unfortunately the galaxy tab (or any tablet) does not have this. So if you frequently do a flashing on your tab you subject the electronic components to unnecessary stress,thereby affecting the life of the components like the battery.

In "normal" everyday use of the tab you will seldom do any restart/reboot of your tab,yet in flashing ROMs as many as 3 reboots is needed. As I don't know how to measure the surge in current during reboot, I can just imagine how high an initial current during startup is generated, thus putting a big strain on the battery.

Unfortunately the battery is not user detachable.

There was an author here in XDA describing himself/herself as an "flashing addict"(or something similar). I would like to appeal to everyone-please don't be a flashing addict.

As for battery issue read here

JUST MY FEW CENTS!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theREDlegion:
According to the Tweaks section at the team overcome website, it will take several charge cycles before you notice an improvement after the stat wipe. Try giving it a few days before going any further.

PS Not to question your ability to follow instructions (sometimes we miss things) but did you charge to 100% with the tab off?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PCdumb:
Yes, I did charge to 100% with the Tab off.

Now upon reading the instructions once more..... I might have conducted it slightly different from the written procedure.

I unplugged the Tab from the mains, then only booted up and wiped the batt stats before re-booting. Hmmm.... maybe I'll go try booting up while still plugged into the mains, do the batt stat wipe, and re-boot. (all while plugged into the mains). Then only unplug the charger.

Wonder is there any diff in doing so.....
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theREDlegion:
Would definitely try re-doing it with the tab plugged in while doing the stat wipe. And if it doesn't seem to fix it, do go through a few cycles before reverting back to a previous ROM.

It's important to completely drain your battery before recharging it to 100% in order to complete a cycle.

Hope you fix it. Battery life results vary between tab's even if they are used very similarly, I'm running the OVERCOME Jupiter ROM with IMPROVED battery life. I keep my Bluetooth, Wifi and GPS on all the time. I also flash quite often and have not seen a decrease in overall battery life. It seams that each tab is a bit different, hardware wise, than one another. Everything from battery to board it seems is slightly different coming out of the manufacturing process.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PCdumb:
Thanks. Will try that out.

But it just seems strange coming from Overcome ver 1.4 (Froyo) which had no batt drain problem.... to Hermes which was better in batt performance.... to Jupiter which I'm experiencing heavy drain.

As I did a NoWipe install, all apps and setting are similar (except the new market app).

I was able to run 2 movies back to back (about 3 hours total) and still have at least 40% life left (usually about 45 to 50%). Now on Jupiter, just fiddling around testing the various features for functionality, plus maybe an hour of NFS (total about 3 hours as well).... the batt drops to about 10% life.

Anyway, I'll re-do the calibration and and give it some time to "settle in". Hopefully, that is all that is needed. (I would hate to have to do a full wipe install... and re-installing all apps)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fadimck:
As mentioned in the Tweaks section, perform the Stat wipe and then two full recharge cycle

recharge to 100% (while the Tab is closed) then drain the battery till it is off then repeat the cycle and you will enjoy it man

Please tell me if you need anything

where you were hiding this all ? i bet you were so damn angry to say all of this , i never saw you writing more than 3-4 lines , chill out buddy .

@The OP flashing custom roms means battery need to re-life back :p
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riclin_au:
Viewed purely from an engineering perspective, I'm unable to see any significant connection between the flashing of the ROM and a degradation of battery capacity. Further, in the event that the TAB was connected to a charger during the flashing, I can see absolutely no connection at all! Please help me understand your logic.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkPal:
Ok Back on topic. PCdumb (dude what's with the username lol). Check your app list. It could a new app you or an old app you updated or an app you didnt use before but you use now that is being a battery hog. A small trick I learned is checking apps running services in the background. Go to Settings, applications, running services and check (why is skype working after Isigned out ;) its not a battery drainer but I hope you got the picture).
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PCdumb:
Thanks for the advise. That was one of the 1st few things I did to check that there's nothing out of the ordinary running in the background and taking up the juice.

Mine's actually draining alot when in usage. Not too sure about when in standby.... will check later.

If after a few charge cycles and the drain is still bad, guess my only next best option is to do a full wipe, re-stock and re-install.....
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pibach:
I did not get any effect from Battery calibration. As expeced. Anybody did actually?

The background services instead might have an effect on power consumption, I agree. But needs numerous testing...
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PCdumb:
Batt recal did not give me better battery life. There's no difference in the battery performance after 3 recharge cycles.

My tab can at most get slightly more than 5 hours of continuous usage compared to about close to 7 hours on hermes. This is when i dial down the OC from smartass mode to conservative and also put the min freq to 200 instead of 400 which was the setting i was using all the while.

Doesn't seem to be anything else running in the background. On standby overnight, i only lose about 3% which is not too bad. But when in use, that's where the Batt drains fast. Just for comparison, i only lost 1% at most for overnight standby of about 7 hours when running hermes.

Guess I'll have to live with this if i want the speed and smoothness. Still contemplating whether to restock and do a clean flash.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theREDlegion:
If you want to confirm that JUPITER is the reason that you are experiencing poor battery life, try re-installing a previous version that you feel worked better for you. Maybe reverting back to a previous version may yield better battery results, and I sure hope so, this way you will know if it's the ROM or other elements affecting the abnormal battery drain.

If you do see an increase in battery life, try flashing JUPITER again, see what the results are. I don't know if flashing and re-flashing will have a negative long term effect on your SGT, I know that I flash every time a new release is out (Stock safe, cooked ROM, Kernel) and if i'm not happy with the release i go back to a proven one by flashing another three times (stock safe, cooked ROM, Kernel) and so far I have not had any (knock on wood) abnormal battery activity.

It's worth giving it a shot (if you haven't already).

EDIT: I know, I know the proper sequence is stock safe, kernel, rom.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fadimck:
after week of using the Overcome ROM i can confirm that the battery performance is between 85 and 90% from the Orignial stock ROM performance

No problem since this is normal as we are using a cooked ROM

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pibach:
I do get 4 to 5 hours of continuous use with overcome Jupiter, mostly browsing the web over

WLAN or umts. Hermes release didn't gave me so much more juice, probably 5 hours.

In the background I have emai push, contacts and calendar sync and some instant messaging apps, if I switch off all that I might get an hour or so more.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droid2Froyo:
Wow, maybe your tab is one of the ones with a battery from the bad batch, and it's finally on its way out. I upgraded from the stock AT&T Rom to Overcome Jupiter, and on Airplane Mode with all stock settings (no overclock or undervolt), mine only drops 1% in standby over 14 hours :eek: and I can get about 5 hours of video watching straight with the brightness on max before it dies!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MutantWizard:
I also been experiencing a major increase in battery drain even after doing a couple wipes exactly according to the tweak guide. I went from about 24 hour normal use down to 6-8 hours normal use.

Checked the services as per your suggestion above and found a couple major battery drainers running. Skype and Yahoo but also Google+. What I dont understand is why Skype and Yahoo would be running even though I had not started either since at least several re-boots ago. I had Skype and Yahoo installed for quite a while Google+ is a new one. Anyway I killed all of them and now and will see what happens next.

Not sure thought that this is all there is to the issue. Recahrging is finiky as well. I can turn off the tab and let it charge all night just to find that it charged to about 70% if I re-plug it might charge to 90%-95% and then if re-plug it might get to 100%. The drain from 100% to 60%-70% is extremely fast and still quite fast from there. On one occasion after complete drain I couldnt get it to start charging at all for about 5-10 minutes. I was checking power, cables, connections and starting to panic when all of a sudden it started to charge.

Any advice on possible reasons or solution woud be appreciated. Not sure I want to go beck to stock ROM and un-root just to take it to service center for repairs.
[Android Apps and Games] jdsemler:
Does anybody have "Leave Devil Alone" on their Android market? I cannot find it on my Froyo phone or even on the Market website.

I'm bummed about having bought the game and it seemingly being pulled without warning. I reset my phone to factory default and figured I would just reload my apps from the Market.

I realize that in such instances, you are talking one or two bucks, but I guess I went into this with the Steam mindset of once you buy something, you can re-download it whenever you want it.
[Android Apps and Games] prinzhernan:
I wonder why they pulled this from the market, was looking for this and I just realized that it was gone. You think it got removed because it was malicious?

Well, it's back on the Market, but I'm confused why there is the 1.06 version on the Market and the 2.0.7.1 version going around?

[Android Apps and Games] jdsemler:
Perhaps somebody else published it? The old app was a pay app (and worth it), but this one seems to be free. I hope they improve it. :)

I still have the APK backed up for the old paid app, but if you didn't buy it when it was available, it doesn't let you play.

So I sold my Legend to my friend and ever since he got it and put his Rogers Sim card in it, it shows the message "Sim card full, delete text messages to free up space", but when you tap on it it says text messages empty. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

He's using Cyanogenmod7 nightlies, currently on build 132. It did the same in earlie builds.
[Legend General] Asovse1:
Never had this problem when unlocking my device and putting a TELUS sim in.

Try getting to the menu manually instead of wiping from the dialog you mentioned.

Messages > MENU > Settings > Manage SIM card messages

Another alternative is to stick the SIM back in his dumbphone (or whatever phone he had prior) and cleaning it from there. I'm sure a dumbphone works best, it's unlikely that it's just CM's fault on an HTC Legend.

If you have the downgrade radios in the 2 kits that are needed to get root, if it were me I would flash a more up to date radio. There is a radio / RIL thread in the dev section that can help you choose which radio with instructions how to flash radios / rils respectively.

[HTC Inspire 4G] g3ismeee:
Read the instructions carefully. You have to "flash" files named PD98IMG.zip from Hboot / Bootloader. It is done this way so that one does not have to obtain ENG-S-Off to flash a radio...like those crazy ferriners across the pond like to do...

than it says checking PD98IMG but nothing else happens
