My battery life is just fine, and I'm hardly a newbie. Perhaps you don't have your phone set up in an optimal way. You should have no problem getting through a day of normal use, and you can get through a day of heavy use without charging. With 3hrs of talk and 3 hrs of screen time (auto brightness), with push email, bluetooth, wifi, and gps on I was able to still get 15+hrs of battery life before it got under 10%. Not sure how you have your phone set up, but my battery life is just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vapotrini:
The irony here is mind bending!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pnnorth:
^absolute bollocks.

I'm not a newbie and have both devices. The battery life on the GN is absolutely fine, yes the 4s is better, particularly when on standby, but I can get a good days use out of either phone.

One thing that I found annoying with my NS was the time it took to charge, the GN is far quicker and similar to the 4s.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nafem:
I am no newbie.

I've had 5 Android phones so I know that the GN battery life is better than most. I easily get a day of heavy use out of it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljwnow:
I even prefer the htc inspire over my sgn... I hope the battery on my sgn could get better when more battery usage tweaks are made available. We'll see.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkoroje:
Battery life its significantly worse than iphone 4 and galaxy s2. I've had a number of android phones and galaxy nexus has worst battery life of them all
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YDardeer:
Wouldn't know much about the iphones, but compared to my previous phones (Nexus s, and a HTC Hero before that) the Galaxy Nexus is NOTICEABLY BETTER. I have no problem going a full day on single charge with heavy use. Or two full days with light use.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
these topics are useless. galaxy nexus is a dev/debug phone.

i spend more time with it connected to the computer than anything else.

why are people comparing android devices to apple devices. it's just plain useless.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] noobdeagle:
Actually battery life is really good the issue comes with how fast the screen drains the battery. Considering smiled power consumption is based on lit pixels and there are a lot more here than the s2

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darkoroje:
Comparing to iphone is not useless at all since that is the alternative many are considering out coming from. Just because you use the phone mostly for development doesn't mean others do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericshmerick:
I have the following:

GNEX GSM

iPhone 4 (GSM on ATT) - work phone

iPhone 4S (GSM on ATT) - wife's phone

The battery life on the iPhones is about double what the GNEX is, easily. I can do two days between charges on the iPhone even with normal use. The GNEX requires charging every night.

Do I care? Nope. I charge my phone every night anyway and always buy spare batteries.

Who in the world is away from a plug at night? Do you live in the woods?

I just don't see what the big deal is. If the battery died in 4 hrs on standby, I can understand. But it easily cruises through the whole day.

That's fine by me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Virtuososteve:
That's my battery after a full day of I would say heavy usage, for me at least.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhuynh:
It's more helpful if you also post your screen time and Android OS stats. That screenshot really tells us nothing without that info.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deleted member 2842059:
Crazy good batt on mine. I'm running an all back wallpaper and it spanks the holy hell out of my former 4 and 4s.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericshmerick:
Yep. For those who complain of battery life, I bet you are running lookout mobile, skype, and a live wallpaper, lol.

Download "colors" from the android market, set wallpaper to solid black. Don't run junk apps that are on 24/7 and watch your battery last all day long.

Simple, really.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljwnow:
God. All black? Why not go back to Nokia 1110. LMAO

I know the battery consumption on this phone freaks me out. I am actually considering selling it and return to HTC...Oh man htc saves my life every single time. Samsung needs to learn.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LordGrahf:
Def worse than my iPhone 4. In my case I decided to stock on chargers rather than becoming a lighter user :)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ericwalsh:
So I was on Gbaxe 1.7 and my phone started getting very buggy.. Over the course of the day, the touch screen stopped working. So I thought to myself "Ok, must be the rom!".. I downloaded 1.8a, had to t29 and install MAGLDR and such again since there was something wrong with the Boot img and everything went fine. Now, I boot up my freshly installed ROM, and it still is not working! Whats going on? I really don't want to buy a digitizer because knowing me I WILL screw up.

Edit: Read a post on holding the power button down really hard to "nudge" the digitizer, which actually worked, but I dont think its going to be a permanent fix σ_σ
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kylew1212:
Sounds like it is getting close to time for setting your phone back to windows mobile 6.5 and sending it in for a warranty repair. :(
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Powell730:
Just want to verify that I'm getting ready to do this the most efficient way..

I'm currently running a theory ROM and rooted using forever root... should I just use forever root to flash back to stock with root and then go into the stock recovery by powering off the phone and holding down power and volume down then flash the zip in that? Then hopefully I'll still have root and I can reinstall my theory ROM?

Thanks for the help, I'm well versed with other Android phones but this is my first locked boot loader and its making me a little skidish

Disregard on this.. Just grew some balls and I think im good to go (updating right now in stock recovery)..

in case anyone else had the some question.. I found a stock rom in development section but i just decided to use forever root, option 1, which formats back to 886 and re roots.. then i booted into stock recovery and flashed the offical OTA file. its currently booting back up right now so if I have any issues then I will report back but I don't forsee any problems.

or is there a guide for installing cyanogen on android 2.3.3...or can i follow the same steps as needed for 2.3.4..???

thanx in advance..!!!!!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] W0lfy B:
Is it possible to have a rooted device, use nandroid to make a backup, revert to stock/unroot, and then restore data from that backup? Can you even use the backup after you unroot?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bg4:
never tried that - although I do not see why not

odin back to factory reset

you will need to odin clockwork recovery as stock recovery will not work

three finger startup to Clockwork

then go to restore - advanced - pick the file and restore data only

I just learned about advanced restore recently but have not done what you ask

If it does not work you can restore to where you were with no harm done

remember that titanium backup only works with root access.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdelano:
If you're stock then you won't have the recovery needed to do a restore from the nand backup.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syntax_erorr:
Yes, you would have to have clockwork recovery installed also though. Then just odin back to one of the stock images. Then later re root and reinstall clockwork and restore back up.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
If you are talking about EI22 and want to keep CWM as a recovery to be able to restore said backup then you will need a custom kernel anyway so that the stock recovery doesn't keep overwriting CWM. What is the reason why you want to do this?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] W0lfy B:
I screwed up my phone a while back with the crappy samsung cable that comes with it. Ever since it has been slower and my pc won't recognize it no matter what I do. So I bought a new cable and I wanted to revert to stock to try and start over with the rooting and custom rom process, but I didn't want to lose all my contacts, apps, music, etc. in the process.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
OK. once you root again and have CWM back on you will be able to restore everything. So Odin away to EC05 stock, one-click root, flash a GB ROM and restore your data.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] URwannabehack:
Well you should always be saving your contacts to your google account, then when you sign back in it will just use your account to reload your contacts. Your music is saved to SD, so when yiou open any new music program it should search your SD and find the music. Likeness previous posts, the issue your going to have doing this is not having a custom recovery...you wont be able to restore a nand with stock recovery. I agree with previous posts, it sucks you'll lose data, but the most functional and clean way to do this would be to Odin to EC05, use the EC05 to EI22 modem zip in the development section, and flash your custom rom and kernel. If you are concerned with performance and lag, see Universeral Adrenaline Shot and Supercharger script...good Luck!

Ok I was on acs 5.5 and recently switched to compkids rom but i miss the blue keyboard from the 5.5. Which apk or framework would i need to install to get that to be blue again? Is it swype?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tha_Dynasty2049:
If it was swype just grab the apk file its gon be called Swype
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seoulseek80:
im not sure. its the blue keyboard from acs 5.5 that im trying to install on cpks rom but it wont take.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] URwannabehack:
Check the rom's OP, most devs will post what is themed. You need to find out what keyboard it was, then you should be able to extract it from the 5.5 zip. Once you know where its at, rename your current keyboard from apk, and paste the themed one.

i thnk its the shake n back keyboard but which aok do I remove and force on the sytem/app
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] URwannabehack:
Ok, so I actually have the shake n bake on my phone...luckily. You need to have them on your SD for you to do what I'm going to say: you need to file explore to your SD and locate the shake n bake zip, open it and you should see 2 folders- META and system...go to system, then to app, and near the bottom you should see the swype.apk. I'm not 100%, but I would assume that's the keyboard you want.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mdwstrnkid:
I've had to restore my Galaxy Tab 10.1 IO twice in the past six weeks due to the infamous boot loop issue. Each time, the boot loop problem occurred when I had to reboot the tablet after it hung on a video. I saw another thread where someone mentioned essentially the same thing. Could there be some bug in the video player that is linked to this boot loop issue? Both times, the video was playing via the Adobe Flash 11 player. Also, I've read some posts that seem to hint that this issue might be specific to 3.1. I'm wondering if this problem will go away after ICS is available for the Galaxy Tab.

Thoughts?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jbh00jh:
Thought the Tab 10.1 was 3.2 now, mine is.

Sent from my Galaxy Tab 10.1
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mdwstrnkid:
I'm still on 3.1. Did Samsung fix the OTA update? I just checked this morning for a new update and didn't find one. Wasn't sure what the timeline was for the IO version.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] kaediil:
I am going to guess that he did not read that you said specifically the Galaxy Tan IO. We do not have 3.2 and IMHO we will not be getting 3.2.

This is a lost device that I have given up hope will ever be updated again - I mean it was free after all. I am not sure what anyone else has done, but I wonder if I just try and install a TouchWiz based update will my device get updates too? I think assuming it will get ICS is a huge leap of faith too BTW.

Anyway, I have had the boot loop of death multiple times after I left it booted up all night. If I turn it off cleanly, it does not seem to happen. I think what is happening is that some file is being left open when you have to hard power down the device by holding the power key and it gets corrupted. So when you try to boot it fails from that point onward. That is what it seems like anyway.

-frank
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mdwstrnkid:
I'm still hoping for some sort of update, even if it's not OTA. Hopefully someone will create an ICS image for the Galaxy Tab IO. I figured that there are 6K+ of those floating around in the hands of users who would be more inclined than your typical tablet user to install a manual update.

The first time I ran into a boot loop, I did have to do a hard power cycle, but the second time, I shut it down normally and restarted it again. I was really surprised to see the boot loop problem again.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iatedeadpeople:

[HTC EVO 3D] SupermanTW:
Yes I am having issues with this one. This keyboard after it is installed for me doesn't look like the screen shots. I think this may be the same keyboard that I posted a link to in another request thread in this forum. It wasn't made by me.

Do you think that you could check the download and make sure you uploaded the correct one. Also could you make a stock keyboard without the blue? I am using a keyboard port with arrows made by another dev on here and I am having issues with the incorrect letter showing up. Example when I press M it sometimes will show correct key in the narrative but the area above the keyboard for prediction and spell correct will display k and I keep getting typos and sometimes is hard to edit. Does your keyboard have trace, spell correction and prediction working with no issues?

I get 4:30 hours with CheckROM 4.0 and DK kernel, all values to stock... and that's with playing games! My battery is the stock one.

If you wanted to buy a phone you aren't going to use and then brag about not using at all for 100 hours maybe next time you could review this?

[Galaxy S II General] fluidz:
The only great thing about having such a great battery life and not using your phone is if you end up losing it, which is unlikely if its lying there on the side all the time.. At least you know its bound to stay awake for a few days so you can send over Plan B and locate it. Funnily enough I went on a cruise this year, start of November and after 5 days of no use (being in the middle of the Ocean n all, i went to grab my phone from inside the suitcase to find it was still turned on, (i swore i turned it off) and the battery dropped no more than 40 percent. Was amazed to find it last so long, especially as i've not got the patience to leave it dormant for so long.

[Captivate General] ptesmoke:
hey guys, i myself am a Desire Z user currently, but I have just come across a local deal on a lightly used Captivate (Rogers I896)

Talked the seller down to $50 without a charger (I have plenty of micro USB's)

I'm pretty sure this is a smokin deal, and I know the phone is stock and 99.99% sure it was never rooted or anything. With that being said this is an obvious jump at the situation and snatch it right? I'm asking because being an HTC boy for a long time I know nothing about sammy's, though from what little I did read in here it's unlockable, rootable, and no shortage of rom development.

just would love to hear your guys' opinion and any tips you may have, or something i should look at before buying, thanks!

maybe I will be around here often :)
[Captivate General] geeksquad2:
Hmmmm..... I just bought one for my wife for $150...

If you don't want it, can I get that guys phone # and buy it for myself?

I call first dibs on it if you don't buy it!

Check kijiji.ca to see what the current going rate is if your still not sure........$150-$200 from what I can see...

As long as there is nothing wrong with the phone...broken glass/bricked unit, major scratches on screen, etc.... I say go for it.....or let me buy it!

I'll drive to wherever it is in Ontario today to buy it!

EDIT: Shoot! I just saw your ColdLake AB location....oh well. I guess I won't drive that far eh? I'll do paypal and pay for the shipping though....

Haha right on, yea I figure its a smokin deal, just minor scratches. And my wifes acer liquid mt lacks in development so id like to pick it up and trick it out for her lol.
