I have some pics of the same thing waiting for 8 posts to upload them... Mystery battery loss of 20% or more....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
4g always left on here. No wifi used
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Beejis:
Is this with eg30? I'm wondering if I should flash the other modem....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
This is with EG30 pulled stock kernel. Everything is stock except I did the 4G signal strength adjustment. I always use "Battery Calibration " by Ne'ma app after any ROM, kernel, or modem change to reset the battery stats. Its easy to use and free. I have been recommending it since OG Epic days where I was,main tester for everything. It doesn't seem to be a placebo effect. When phone is plugged in and it gets to 100%, you get a tone. Make sure it reads at least 4161mV (usually mine shows 4171). If its lower, then unplug, plug back in and let it get to 100% again then press "calibrate ". Root needed. You will think something is wrong when it stays at 99% for so long. I never get those random drops of battery strength either
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bruflot:
Awmaigawd.

People who says that he barely uses it truly needs to get a life..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Beejis:
Downloaded that app and my mV is at 4195 but not at 100% (it's at 98%). Is that too high?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Nope that's great. As soon as it gets to 100% it will let you calibrate
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
I know it flashes in odin. I wadjust asking hiw bug the file is. It wont flash though. No one has been able to successfully pull the eg30 modem yet.

for all you guys getting great battery life, how often is your data syncing for mail & social feeds? i'm still trying to find the sweetspot where my battery doesn't drain too fast but where i'm not too far out of the loop as far as email and social accts.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Khilbron:
I have all my syncs on all the time, GPS on, wifi when available, no exchange mail, auto brightness on, I don't use social networks, but I have the associated press widget set to 30 minute refreshes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Same here. I am starting to wonder if when you turn off auto sync some apps do it on their own anyway
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jermzz:
Man, you guys barely use your phone at all. I'll post my useage up tonight. I been testing on Starburst 1.8 My screen usage and total hours is quite above any in this thread. the 35% I have left will probably last me til this evening, which will be pushing 35 hours. I hope. :)

---------- Post added at 07:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:00 PM ----------

you oc your phone? if I oc to 1600mhz my phone will randomly freeze and even if i catch it right away and pull the battery, I will lose minimum 10 percent battery. also if you havent calibrated your battery from a rom flash then you for some reason reboot from LOS or whatever, youll lose battery also. This used to happen to me til I calibrated. I calibrate now right after every rom flash and stay away from 1600mhz and I havent had a problem since.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asqwrd:
for me during the week when im at work i get on average about 12-14 hours on moderate use. I have gps on, wifi on, bluetooth on, my screen brightness is set pretty high and i have auto sync on for facebook, google, and twitter. I send a lot of texts and im checking twitter,facebook, and email maybe 3 or 4 times within the hour. Im also on wifi while at work but after work i go to the gym for about 3-4 hours and listen to music and check twitterm facebook and email as well on data. By the time i get home im at about 30-20% without having to charge all day. I take my phone off the charger at about 9am and i get home around 9-10. I only get over 24 hours during the weekend when i only use my phone for text messages and some phone calls.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
That's impressive right there. I get a day but only 4 hours screen on time. Video and music tax the battery alot too
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asqwrd:
Yea this the first smartphone ive had where if i forget my charger at home when i leave for work im not worried my phone wont make it at least thru my work day.

i think wifi saves alot of my battery tho since im on it most of the day
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stevedeezy:
my phone must be a battery hog. i expect lower performance at work due to bad in building reception but i'm not getting anywhere near 12-14hrs with light use. when i had fb & twitter to auto-sync every 30 minutes, i'd get 5hrs before i hit 15% and got the low battery warning. even at home on wifi and an airave i'm lucky to get 10hrs with moderate use (mostly web, fb & twitter, never streaming). even though i have a charger in the office & in the car, i'd still like to be able to find a happy medium to last from morning til bedtime. right now i have fb & twitter set to 4hrs, 2 push (gmail) accounts and 2 pull (once a day) accounts.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bds120:
My battery has literally been stupid awesome. Its like the phone finally wants to work right. I have Juice Defender installed with Stock DeOdexed + WifiHack + SilentCamera hack and I work in a secure environment so my phone sits outside mostly untouched. But After a full day in the office with being off the charger since 6:30am and by 4pm I am down to like 92% and when I get home its on wifi immediately. And by the end of the night I may be down to 70%.

Phone lasted a entire weekend on a single charge.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AsinX:
No ROM? Can you post a pic of your usage? What modem are you on?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] takeheart:
I've been unplugging and replugging phone in for the better part of an hour here trying to get Battery Calibration to give me something above 4161 consistently. When I say consistently, I mean that when I close and reopen the program, the mV level will fluctuate from anywhere between 4100 to 4205. This program just seems to spit out a random number whenever it so chooses.. Kind of doubting the efficacy of this thing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Its surge protection. Calibrate it once, use it some, recharge and calibrate a 2nd time. You will be good
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] takeheart:
Ok, that makes sense. So no need to fully drain it or anything, just use it for a bit and then charge and run battery calibration again?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Exactly. Fully draining LiIon batteries shorten their lifespan. I never go below 20% unless I am stuck someplace without a charger
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] random45:
I average around 8 hours of >HEAVY< usage.. Auto Screen Brightness, Wifi/4G when available, etc.

My average is around 12 hours 100% -> 0% of all usage. This is all with the EG30 modem. I just flashed the other modem that was posted (EG12 is it?).

We'll see how it goes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Just curious, but why would you do this when you already have very good battery life, and knowing you can't go back to EG30 currently?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] random45:
I didnt know you couldnt go back... Well I guess I'll be a guinea pig.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Plenty of people have already, with the biggest reported issue being not receiving calls when the phone is asleep.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] melvinvs:
That is true
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ahl395:
You guys do know someone looked into the EG30 and EG12 modems and found out they are the same, right?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Hmmm. That doesn't really jive with people who flashed the EG12 modem.bin and suddenly stopped receiving calls when the phone is asleep.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brennen.exe:
Works for me...

Not sure whether this is good or bad battery life by everyone's standards here, but I've had my phone since Tuesday, and have done my best to calibrate it Tuesday and Wednesday... here's my screenshot from my second charge down from yesterday (Wednesday). Took the phone off of the charger at 4:00PM sharp, and it is now 24 hours later. Not sure why the up time says 21... I might have rebooted the phone and forgot, I dunno. The first three hours was just music, light email, light texting, and one 15 minute phone call.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jameson JC:
Some apps do continue to sync (based on either their internal app settings or ???) when you have sync off. For instance, if you turn sync off, the samsung mail app (with the widget that shows mails...) will continue on schedule as you set it inside the app, as well as facebook, I update FB every 6 hours, and Mail every hour, it does not affect the battery enough to bother me....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Thanks. I thought those were the culprits. I will just scale back the update intervals at night
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jameson JC:
brennen,

You dont think that massive 90 degree fall from about 55% to 45% is mysterious?

JC

---------- Post added at 09:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 PM ----------

John,

You can actually see if you go to the apps menu or somewhere and see how long they have been running, and how much data they transmitted over that time. It is in stock menu somewhere, but it would take me a few minutes to find it lol. I am still getting used to this epic4gtouch coming from fliphones dating back to the motorola startac (a good phone actually)

I think you might want to change them to never (or manual basically) to only do it when you want, and then do it when your in a wifi area perhaps?

JC
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I am still searching for those myself. If you find them please share. Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I found the culprit. One of my email accounts was set to sync every 4 hours and the other every 30 minutes. Even better battery now
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
A major culprit of bad battery life is your phone not going into deep sleep. This causes the phone to use a lot more battery than usual when it is just sitting idle in your pocket.

Download BatteryMonitorWidget. It will estimate your mA usage. In particular pay attention to this number when your phone has been asleep a while. An idle Epic Touch normally uses an average of around 2-10mA. If you are using more than that in idle mode, then your phone either isn't going to deep sleep and/or some app is holding partial wakelocks preventing the phone from going to deep sleep.

Check out your battery stats to see if your "awake"-time mirrors your "screen on"-time. If you have large areas of awake time not anywhere near screen on time, then some app is waking up and doing stuff or it is holding a partial wakelock preventing the phone from going to sleep.

Download BetterBatterStats. It will add back statistics which will help you determine which app is doing the damage.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Beejis:
What do you have your email settings on now? Or is the 4 hours and 30 minutes what you changed them to?

Calling this a kitchen, but call it what you will.. Modifier, Downloader, Installer

MOD My phone comes packaged with ThunderStick Notifier which has been distributed with ThunderStick ROMs as a easy way for users to modify there devices.

Well MOD My Phone is capable of much more than just modifying devices with ThunderStick ROMS

It will modify any device.

Kind of like a kitchen it uses a predefined set of settings and a little user input to make changes to your device.

Even better MOD My Phone now has the ability to allow developers to list there own modifications for download directly from the MOD My Phone app.

Currently this app only works with Windows PC's but with further development one day could grow past that limitation.
