Guys with great battery life - how do you do this??? I am on bell atrix with bell latest radio and cm7 prebeta 2. Cannot even charge to 100%.... stops at 99. Hence wiping the battery stats does not callibrate the battery. I am getting a crapload of usage from cell standby and phone idle. Should I change the radio maybe????
[Atrix 4G General] Phoneguy589:
What apps are you using? And have you flashed anything additional.
[Atrix 4G General] kufel:
I have the latest faux123 kernel, flashed gapps, and about 50-60 apps that I always had. Standard gtalk, palringo, navigon, gmaps etc. It started to suck since I flashed 2.3.4 french. Was the same on bell's 2.3.4 and continues to suck on cm7...
[Atrix 4G General] Phoneguy589:
I have Advanced Task Killer and check to see what's running and then freeze with TiBu. Haven't installed anything yet that drains my battery YET.
[Atrix 4G General] kufel:
What radio are you on???

I have the feeling that this is my problem....
[Atrix 4G General] brd912:
Is there anything I can do to show you guys what's eating my battery so I can fix it?
[Atrix 4G General] KeRmiT80:
any mod to enable wifi teether?

i see cm7 has already the built in option in other devices...
[Atrix 4G General] INSM Sin:
i had this same problem. idk if you got it fixed yet but what you should do is reinstall romracers recovery. what happen to me was clockwork manager's recovery was installed over romracers. that fixed my problem anyway.

edit0 just now decided to read back one page and saw u fixed it -.- lol
[Atrix 4G General] KeRmiT80:
use better battery stats to see the level of charge when full should be above 4200.

if that is ok, then data wifi bt gps are battery killers in gingerbread.

i use setcpu to lower to 500 max freq when i use just the phone. all turned off except data i raise freq just for gaming.

battery last almost 2 days with normal use.

with wifi, gps on 1100 freq...100% at 7 am, <40% before noon...
[Atrix 4G General] theccboy:
Got my atrix today. From what I've read, the only thing not working is BT, and camera works with 3rd party apps? I'm debating using this... hmm
[Atrix 4G General] thegregulator:

Help With Wifi

For some reason I've lost my wifi....

It was working on beta 1, It was also working on Beta 2 then I noticed it just stopped working.... I have re flashed beta 2 a few times I ve restored a few backups, However wifi still does not work.... If I restart my phone go to wifi settings it says turn on I try that then it just says error..... and never turns on... If I restart my phone I have the option to turn on wifi again until I try then it goes back to error... and no Wifi... The reason I reloaded beta 2 again was because I was messing with my settings in CM7 and I turned on the notification widgets from the pulldown if i held down 2g/3g data it opened up a menu and i selected a 2g/3g option then I lost my signal... So I restored a backup ever since I did that my signal was back however my wifi has never worked since, Ive tried restoring and redoing beta 2 from scratch but I still have the same wifi problem...

Can anyone help or have any idea what I can do to fix this.....
[Atrix 4G General] kufel:
No app is draining the batt. Even after killing them all it drops at 8-10% / hr WITHOUT touching the phone. I think it is the radio, but I still cannot charge to 100% either, stops at 99....

Also - I did not buy the fastest phone in the world (at least at the time of buying :) ) to cut its speed by half :P
[Atrix 4G General] rozzco:
Another tip: I am using an app called Shakercall to answer and hangup just by shaking the phone. I had a similar app for my iPhone. It works great and fixes the issue regarding hanging up a call. Hope this helps. ;)
[Atrix 4G General] thegregulator:
It very well could be your radio. And for the last time: gingerbread doesn't allow your phone to charge to 100%!!!!! It stops charging at 98/99% to avoid overcharging, which in the long run will help prolong the life of your battery.
[Atrix 4G General] kufel:
Cool. At least now it reached 4200mV at 99% as before I could not have reached that voltage. And now is after I flashed the older radio from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1133921&highlight=radio&page=2

we'll see how it goes with it. The radio I had b4 was the one from Bell's OTA update to GB

After couple of minutes Phone Idle is dropping in battery status already. Cell standby is still high. Hopefully this is the solution to my problem...
[Atrix 4G General] shaunole:
This is exciting, but I'm not ready to take the leap until at least camera and wireless tethering are up and running. I haven't read the full thread, but I assume I'm not the only one. I just wanted to chime in and show my support for continued development even though I'm still to iffy to take the leap.

Well done. Donating a few bucks now. I encourage all those that haven't donated to do the same. Just $5/$10 from the majority here makes a huge difference.
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
Funny that, because I can charge to 100% at 4200mv.

The phone stops fast charging at around 97% - 98%, then trickle charges to 100%. Rarely do I see it drop to 99% straight away either when I unplug it from the wall charger.

Now, it may lessen battery life, and that is why fast charge stops before 97% and trickle charge starts, but you can charge to 100%.
[Atrix 4G General] KeRmiT80:
works pretty well thanks!

if you buy a ferrari 430 it's not mandatory that you always run at 300 kmh, chicks can focus on the driver only below 40 kmh ;)
[Atrix 4G General] kufel:
Yeah... but you do not put a brick under the pedal ti limit it to 40.... you want ti have 300 avail. So once the chick gets in you speed up to make sure she does not get out :):):):)
[Atrix 4G General] kufel:
25 minutes and 8% gone. Exactly 80% of which goes to phone idle and cell standby. Something is seriously f-d up here....

Figured a majority of people in this thread are running cm7 pb2 by now.
[Atrix 4G General] Phoneguy589:
I can't seem to find that app.
[Atrix 4G General] Blind_Guardian:
It's gotta be something on your end. I suggest you use something like watchdog to see what's eating up your battery. I've been running CM7 for weeks now.

23 hours on battery, heavy texting, moderate web browsing on wifi, and light GPS testing... still have 43% charge left.
[Atrix 4G General] martyman19828:
Not true. OEM chargers with clean GB install will allow 100% charge.
[Atrix 4G General] thegregulator:
Mine didn't allow 100% charge on my atrix, galaxy s, or legend. The general concensus from what I understood was to prolong battery life. I'm sure some people's phones are saying 100% when it's actually only 99 or so. In any event it's not a big deal, so long as people are.getting decent life spans from their batteries.
[Atrix 4G General] lilhaiti:
I am test driving beta two. So far so good...smooth as silk.

The battery takes a lot longer to charge on USB than it did 4.5.91 builds, no biggie, just being patient.

Battery life seems to be about the same to me, I haven't used it that much, but so far it seems OK.

Angel Camera works, but SLOOOWW...does anyone know how to change the color of Angel, the pink is killing me.

WiFi works pretty good, sat at Noodles and Company using their free WiFi and downloaded most of my apps from the market

Aside from the few things that don't work, this is the CM7 that I remember.

Great job team!!!! You have about 1/4 of a community using a "Pre Beta" ROM as a daily driver, good job.
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
Google it. Another app which works well is Barnacle. Google that also for download.

Beamed from WinBorg 4G via XDA Premium
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
Agreed. I want to see where this "won't charge to 100%" is coming from.

Beamed from WinBorg 4G via XDA Premium
[Atrix 4G General] thegregulator:
It's coming from the fact that my phone will never read 100% charged even after a night of charging. It says it is full charged, but the battery meter in the task bar, as well other battery meters I've tried read 99%. I have no doubt that my phone is charged to capacity, and that either that capacity is 99%, or the battery meter is slightly off. I'm not the only one with this, well it's not even an issue.. I'm getting great battery life so I'm happy as a clam.
[Atrix 4G General] lilhaiti:
To the guys that are having battery issues here are some tips.

Get Autorun Manager (or similar), and check to see which apps are auto starting that don't need to be.

If you use a task killer app (I don't) make sure you only include apps that you don't need running all the time (i.e. games, media apps, etc). Closing everything causes more problems than it solves and you may use more battery restarting important apps all the time.

Check your cell data signal, if you are low on bars the radio will do more scanning which eats battery.

Set your screen timeout to 30sec or less (if you can tolerate it). Having the screen on too much will shoot bullets at your battery.

Turn off unused services. No need in having GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth looking for something that aint there. A lot of geolocation apps (ie weather apps, google search) will try to poll the gps (if it is on) every time it updates your location, that will chew on your battery.

Decrease sync (update) frequency of your syncing apps (email, facebook, weather) to as few as practical or update them manually when you are ready. Frequent syncing will kill your battery, and all the apps don't sync on the same schedule...so you could get a sync now then a sync in a couple of minutes, then a sync a few minutes after that...and that my friend will murder battery

Set your screen brightness to as low as your can stand it, it will save battery. Auto brightness sometimes sets brightness too high for the situation, that'll do you battery in.

If you don't game or do anything CPU intensive, no need in overclocking all the time. The Atrix is plenty fast and smooth at lower max clock speeds. My suggestion is to either set profiles with SetCPU (or similar) or set your max as low as you can stand it until you have a need for speed.

When every you flash a new ROM, ALWAYS wipe battery stats. Every ROM keeps stats different than others. Even some similar ROMS can store stats different. To be safe, wipe.

If you are coming from a blur ROM (or anything different if you've found something), make sure to wipe (format) the system partition as well as data/factory reset. The data/factory reset does not wipe system, and there could be some residuals left behind from your previous ROM, and there is no telling what they may be doing in the background if they are there.

Hope these tips helps with something, and if I am wrong on something correct me, I don't claim to be the expert with this stuff, I've just been playing around with this stuff for a while.
[Atrix 4G General] kufel:
So changing the radio did not fix it so I decided to reflash CM7 without wiping data. after that I have no connectivity over 2G/3G.... Status shows connected but no transmission occurs...

So - tried to get back to square one - wiped everything, wiped Dalvik, flash latest bell radio, flashed CM7, reflashed the kernel, gapps and still no data ....

I can only connect through Wi-Fi

Android System Info shows the IP address while on 3G but I still cannot connect.

HELP!!!! - Any idea what could have caused this behaviour?
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
So let me get this right..............you are telling people you CANNOT get 100% battery charge based on YOUR experience. Not only are you stating this, but you are stating it as "this is the last time I am saying this!", like you have some position of knowledge on batteries, Gingerbread, and Android.

Do you also blame it on the condom when you are told you are not big enough?

Sorry, but another moron enters the fray! Don't tell people sh*t unless you have substantial sources and data to back you up! You expressed an opinion, not data or source substantiated evidence.

It's past your bedtime! Cya!

<edit> Oh yeah................I can be a **** when I want to!
[Atrix 4G General] thegregulator:
I am sorry if I have offended you in any way, shape, or form. Clearly I didn't get my point across properly. I just wanted to let the previous poster know that I was having the same issue as he was. I have stated that a few times in this thread as well as a few others. It is all based on my personal experience with gingerbread. I know others have had this happen to their phones, and I was merely trying to let them know as far as I know it is a fairly common complaint.

What in the world is wrong with you and your attitude. I've been tracking your posts. Can't you really answer without disrespecting other members?. I've warned you in the past and you don't really learn the lesson. You have earned some vacations to chill out and think about if you want to come down to XDA and respect other members.

The biggest problem I get with this ROM is the heat, and my touchscreen screwing up as a result.
[Atrix 4G General] Datblkbro:
Nevermind it was a pc problem
[Atrix 4G General] Phoneguy589:
Mine gets really warm down near the speaker for a few and I'll open ATK, see a ton of apps running and kill selected apps (usually leaves about 5 running) and a minute or 2 later back to normal.
[Atrix 4G General] blackalice:
Might give that a shot - not a fan of ATK, mind you :/
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
That's where the processor is. Unless there is an app that has gone "rogue" and is taking up a ton of cpu than it is unnecessary, even detrimental, to use ATK. I would suggest just putting the phone down all together, since it's the processor that generates so much heat it usually is caused by the "current" process running and not necessarily background processes (unless of course it is out of whack like previously stated).
[Atrix 4G General] Phoneguy589:
I've heard that but never understood why exactly. Sometimes there are 10-15 running apps which is usually google or news and weather..I use ATK mainly because I can see what's running better than the stock running area. Then if that app keeps popping up when I look in ATK, I use TiBu to freeze it. I just utilize ATK mainly to quickly see and end useless apps.
[Atrix 4G General] Phalanx7621:
Dangit I hate when this happens. I did a search or two and it appears maybe I'm the only one having this problem, but....I have no market app on my CM7. Did a moto-fastboot -w to erase everything, also did the moto-fastboot erase stuff and wiped my preinstall, system, data, dalvik cache....basically a fresh completely new install with CM7, everything works GREAT and smooth and fast....but no market anywhere I can find. It's like the market app has disappeared. Am I missing something?
[Atrix 4G General] Gutterball:
Yup you gotta install the google apps package. :D
[Atrix 4G General] Phalanx7621:
Yer my new favorite person ;p ty soo much. :D
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
I understand where you're coming from but for the most part, unless an app is "updating" itself its really not running per se. Take the News & Weather app for example, if you turn off the refresh and manually put in a location instead of using geolocation then it will just use RAM and not actually be running (using processor). It could be confusing as it will still show up in ATK but that's just because it is sitting idle for multitasking use. I use System Panel and it will monitor which programs are running in the foreground and for how long which helps find which apps are eating up resources. For the most part, if you "kill" apps using ATK and then use it again it will actually generate more heat because it has to start the process up all over again, which in turn uses the processor even more.

Is speed dial setup a different way in CM7 or is it just non-existent? Either that or mine is broken. I couldn't find any other info on the subject.
[Atrix 4G General] luizffgarcia:
How is your battery life with this pre-beta 2 compared to Gingerbread?

This is a gread build for a pre-beta...
[Atrix 4G General] lilhaiti:
Do you mean Smart dial? If so, it is non existent in stock Android (and CM7). You will have to use Go Contacts, Dialer One, TouchPal, or something similar, to get smart dial.

As far as speed dial you can setup shortcuts to contact and place them on your homescreen. Probably not what you are looking for though.
[Atrix 4G General] lilhaiti:
My battery life seems to be comparable, but the jury is still out on it. Still need to play around with it a few more days to get a really good gauge for the battery life. Overall, it definitely usable in the battery department (as in battery life is similar to the Blur ROMS). Of course you mileage may vary depending on your usage and the apps you install.
[Atrix 4G General] kufel:
My bat life sucks big time...

I do not understand how ppl are reporting 20 hrs or more.

Cell standby and Phone Idle consume more than display.

After 4hrs on battery I am at 51%. Battery usage goes to:

Voice calls - 34% (about 30 minutes of total talk time)

Cell Standby - 29%

Phone Idle - 22%

Display 9% (on for 53 minutes)

Android OS 4%

Engadget - 2%

CM7 Pre2, latest faux123 unified kernel, bell latest radio (extracted from 2.3.4 OTA update, tried an older radio as well - same $h!t). Reflashed several times hoping to improve, battery callibrated (hopefully, as charge does not reach 100% - stops at 99)
[Atrix 4G General] thegregulator:
I couldn't get decent battery life with the bell radio. I know you said you've tried an older radio, but which one was it? I'm using .77.30P, which I think is the older AT&T radio and I'm getting good battery life.

i got improvements since i flashed the 1.97 radio, i tried many times to flash as linux returns error, cwm says zip installation succesfull but then checkin in the phone infos radio still the 1.77

If you do a wipe and everything and load cm7, are you also flashing the bell radio, or does it persist after a wipe?
