Would you mind going that extra step and providing us with the detail of your setups, i mean do you keep gps on all times, wifi, data, etc.... I have kept wifi on all time but still get no better than 1%/hour and end up losing as much as 10% overnight. My emails are also synced at 30 minute intervals in order to keep battery consumption to a minimum.

For simplicity, I have indicated my setup below. Please feel free to indicate what is different in your setups..

I have everything on, wifi, GPS, 2 Gmail accounts syncing etc. It likely could be an app killing your idle time. I have about 10 core apps installed that I use. This phone gets the best standby time I've ever had. But the screen can drain it fast during use.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stadsport:
Unplugged at about 11:30pm at 100%, woke up at 9am at 93%.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
I have around 100 apps on it,and its idle drain blows me away. I lose 1% in 1.5-2hrs.in airplane mode,when I went on a cruise,I lost 1% in 4hrs.everything on. Every single thing.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] schriss:
You need to either configure it correctly or uninstall. I use JD and loose 2-3% over night. I like JD because it's managing autobrightness better than stock auto-brightness, JD allows you to setup min and max values. My sweet spot is -20%, 45%, 100%. With this, brightness is still good and screen is using less than 50% of battery.

Of course, your movie players (for example Diceplayer) usually have separate brightness option to use when playing, so when I start playing a movie, my brightness goes up automatically and I enjoy my screen, back to auto when I exit player. This is perfect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mvorbrodt:
With Facebook, Skype, Google+, Chat, Gmail, Exchange Mail, and one or two other apps using push, overnight (8-10 hours) I loose 10%-15%.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mihadeth:
I use: Open Kang 4.0.3 b11 with franco.Kernel v7.1 (baseband UGKK7) and have 1-1.5% drain over 5-7 hours of sleep.Power saving options from rom developers are enabled: switch to 2g when screen is off, sync only once per two hours. I don't use Facebook. Syncing GMail, Exchange, Fring, WhatsUp only.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stopswitch:
No Facebook, sync always on, LTE always on, wifi off, GPS and BT off. I can pull about six hours before hitting 90% from full charge. This is with new baseband radios and stock ICS 4.0.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tigajr:
With 01 gmail account syncing and wifi on, I lose about 2-3% in 6-7h.

My GSM GN continues to exceed my expectations as a smartphone. No custom ROM, only stock ICS! This is a great phone!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
That's close to what I see as well. This phone has superb idle power draw!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s1977:
Quick question...Can you tell me when you got this phone or can you tell me the phone build date? My phone build on Odin mode shows as Nov 16th....(Cold boot: Vol- + Power) I am just trying to work out whether newer batches have anything changed on the phone by Samsung....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Abufinzio:
the same lose of battery i have!

but i have also 4 push mail, facebook, twitter, google+, pulse, gtalk, gps on, bluetooth on with a nokia bh-804 connected :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mrc527:
I lose 2/3% over 8 hours Night, with stock 4.0.3 :-)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] schriss:
I just disabled JuiceDefender to see how much would I loose over night.

I have Google+, Facebook. WiFi was ON and set to stay on always even if screen off.

So in 10 hours I lost 8%.

But I think % might not be great indicator of battery drain. I also look at BetterBatteryStats. For example when my phone is in AirPlane mode over night, I only loose 2-3% or 4-6mA or 20mW.

If I keep radio on including WiFi, I loose 2x times more (6-8%), but it's still great for such powerful phone and all these apps I have installed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
Umm...a *vast* majority of people sleep where there is ample electricity. This is 2011/2012...I'd guess at least 99% of America's population does.

Then again I seem to remember you saying you live in your car...which makes purchasing a $650 phone to use with a $90+/month plan completely ridiculous.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GinoSylum:
Just tried it over night. I'm running 3 email accounts that check every hour. A weather widget, a timeline widget and calendar widget. Wifi and data are on.

I lost 9% in 10 hours. So a little less than a % per hour.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
It seems to me this phone can easily handle 1% an hour idle. If you're getting better than that, that is awesome. If you're losing more than 1% an hour you're probably doing it wrong. Lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shoman24v:
Here's what I got last night. Came off a complete charge 3G/4G enabled, GPS and data sync enabled. My usual settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
Juice defender for me.

after using that and letting it manage my connections,

i've more than double my battery life.

obviously after the new-phone-touch-it-every-second-syndrome dissipated.

lol!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
I've occasionally fell asleep without charging at night (I normally do). I passed out one night when I only had like 12% left... when I woke up I still had like 8%. Pretty happy.

I did it last night too. I put it on the charge (to 100%) but I couldn't sleep so I went down on the couch. This morning it was at 95%.

WiFi is always on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] virtualcertainty:
Initially I had a few problems with a power hungry background app, probably not optimized for ICS yet, causing some battery drain. But my Nexus is running fairly well on idle now. In the last two nights...

... first shutting nearly everything off - wifi, data (gsm), gps, sync. The phone went through 4% power in 6 hours. Next night I left wifi, data, gps, sync on and it lost only 3% in 6 hours. Forgiving some noise in my test or perhaps some wonky estimates by the o/s that's pretty good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pcphobic:
Here's my result
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dogtag:
There's no stock 4.0.3 yet as far as i know of.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] typhoonz:
with wlan on i lose ~4-6% in 8h deep sleep @ 350mhz
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MarkGbe:
i tested this last night.... went to bed at 10 with airplane mode on at 15%, woke up at 5:30 and phone was dead. Seems like a lot....

any ideas? trying watchdog lite to see if any apps are doing weird things
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rman18:
I've tested this pretty extensively... If I leave everything enabled I lose about 12% over 8 hours... not horrible.

If I shut off location services and sign out of G+ I lose 3% over 8 hours.

I also noticed that notifications (and maybe the led light) help kill the battery... the other night I received a CNN Breaking News notification shortly after falling asleep and woke up 4 hours later to notice a 17% drain in those 4 hours... I cleared the notification and went back to bed and woke up to another 4% drain in the next 4 hours.

I think facebook notifications hurt it as well. I'm going to try shutting off the LED at night to see if that fixes that issue or not.

REVOLUTION 4.0.2

Stock Kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jd1001:
Apex!

I was using Franco's kernel 11 on my nexus, during the night on airplane mode I was losing 20 to 30% battery!!!! So I ended up switching to Apex build 5 kernel and my phone is back to normal now. Using AOKP build 15 with this kernel is awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gogol:
All stocks, loosing only 3% for 7 hours :)

Note that I am using extended battery 2000mAH for GSM version.

Android 4.0.1, yakju, not-rooted, not-unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diomark:
I lose a very low percentage when idle at hotels.. where there's 1 or 2 wifi signals..

At home in San Francisco, there are literally dozens of wifi signals.. I lose a majority of my battery overnight (~50-60%)

Starting to thing the wifi makes a big difference...

As many of you know when you turn on the labs function in the browser you can activate many menus by using the blue circle on the side of the screen. On my galaxy tablet there are many more options on the blue circle however on my galaxy nexus there are very few options on the blue circle. Does anyone know how to get all of the options on the cellphone similar to the tablet?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ajwho:
Not possible. Phone v tablet
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kangxi:
4.0.3 adds more options.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] infinitemethod:
Splashtop Streamer works really great for just remoting in and doing things. However, I wanted to see if anybody uses a different remote app. for playing games on their desktop/laptops?

I wanted to try Minecraft and it works really well, the arrow keys work but when I try to use the mouse, the pointer uses the pointer on the tablet and not in Windows. Splashtop doesn't really have a lot of features, anybody have any experience with a different app. that allows the pointer to be used better in windows?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ktulu0421:
Id be interested to hear from what other people are running as well. I'll be using my prime to connect to my work pc so I can do estimates on the go.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tylermaciaszek:
for minecraft why dont you just get the app?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] infinitemethod:
Because that has about 5% of the features of the actual Minecraft game. Also, my cousins run a server and you can't connect to those in that app.

Pocketcloud works when splashtop won't. My PC won't wake up after about 30 minutes of inactivity when using splashtop but pocketcloud still works.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] infinitemethod:
Thanks for sharing but I just tried PocketCloud and it was a laggy mess compared to Splashtop.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xdaspyder:
I use teamviewer more often than anything else. I haven't tried gaming with it, but just thought I'd through that out there as an option.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] infinitemethod:
Appreciate it. I'll try it out and post if it can work with games or at least Minecraft.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nxp3:
gaming

Well for gaming, there's the OnLive option. Bad thing is it'll cost some money. I really haven't seen anything else satisfactory to stream games.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
are there any RDC apps that don't require you to install a host on the other PC? just being on the same network?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nxp3:
Well all windows PC, windows xp and beyond have rdp all you have to do is enable it and then you can connect to it with any rdp client.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aawshads:
Teamviewer is what I use, works great on every platform I have tried.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Semantics:
I use log me in ignition and i love it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] thegadfly:
The Xtralogic remote desktop app is a real RDC which doesn't require anything to be installed on the host system. It actually interfaces with Windows software beyond just showing you a clickable image like a lot of VNC apps.

My question is has anyone installed Xtralogic RDC on their prime, and does it work well?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] devadvance:
I used Xtralogic Remote Desktop Client. It's in Market for $25, but there's a trial available. I use it on my Galaxy Tab 10.1, my Galaxy Nexus, and have used it in the past on the TF101 and Galaxy S.

It works with the built-in RDP server on Windows 7, Vista, XP. I used it every day to manage a Windows Server 2008 R2 box. It also supports Terminal Services (RD Gateway) and Windows 8 (tested it with a Windows 8 VM).

It's not the best for streaming video from another computer, but in terms of true RDP compatibility, I have yet to see anything that beats it. $25 buys you a lot of updates, support, and flawless functionality.

@thegadfly you must have responded right after I clicked reply :D I'll be getting the Prime tomorrow so I'll post back here when I test it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NZtechfreak:
I used Splashtop on my TF1 - only one I found that properly used the keyboard and touchpad in the dock. Will be sticking with it for the TF2. Tried the phone version update on my Note this morning (now supported 720p resolution) and it's awesome - faster than before and new touchpad input is great.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shoutman:
Probably a silly question but is there any program that allows you to physically turn on your PC remotely
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] amviewer:

My router has it build in.(Tomato USB)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] seigex:
+1 on teamviewer, best remote desktop app i've used.. and extremely simple to use
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kcshmo:
Has anyone tried 2X? it's available on the market. I used that on my phone, and it connect straight to the XP desktop over RDP. No additional software require on the PC side. It has support for the usual keyboard combos, and a simulated mouse pointer for left/right clicks. You can move the pointer around and do ctrl/alt/shift click combinations. It's free for the phone, not sure if they charges for the tablet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] devadvance:
Just tested Xtralogic Remote Desktop Client on my new Prime and it seems to be working very well. No issues so far, very fast etc.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tbonejazzcat:
Xtralogic Remote Desktop

I've used Xtralogic for a couple of years on my phone and really like it. When using it on my prime with the keyboard dock, it works but the entire screen flickers when typing. It is the only program that does this. I've tried other RDC programs and they work fine. I prefer to use Xtralogic but this needs to be fixed. Has anyone else experienced this?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jonathanp:
I use vworkspace for rdp which is free.

Quite like the on screen mouse and keyboard functions, can also have multiple connections at once and switch between them.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rryk:
I have rooted my HTC Desire, booted into ClockworkMod Recovery, backed up my phone and performed a factory reset. After this I have started my phone normally, restored needed apps with Titanium Backup and was happy. Then suddenly my phone suggested to download and install a system software update "System Enhancement 20.11". I generally like updates, so I have confirmed the download and installation. It has rebooted into ClockworkMod Recovery and printed out the following:

ClockwordMod Recovery v2.5.0.7
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification aborted
Installation aborted.

I know that I can disable signature verification from under "install update from zip", but where should I search for the update? I wasn't able to find it in the root folder and I doubt that it's on SD card at all (otherwise users without SD card wouldn't be able to install it).
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Sane116:
I have rooted NT OS 1.4.0 with only the stock platform installed. How can I access third party appear EASILY? preferably from the home screen. Im able to access them through the browser but with difficulty. Please help
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rjin9673:
There is an app called AppManager which was used with the Nook Color which will put 3rd party apps on your default launcher home screen for the nook tablet without the use of a 3rd party launcher such as ADWlauncher for Go Launcher EX.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] merlot2k1:
Download Nook Color App Manager from the Android Market. This will allow you to place 3rd party apps on the home screens.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DssTrainer:
or if you've installed apps and can't find them, hit the "n" key to bring up the menu bar and choose "search". Then start typing in the name of the app and it should come up, allowing you to start it that way.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] germz1986:
is there another place we can get this, it is no longer available on the market.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] MadMikeSS:
I hate to revive an old thread. But I was reading through the NT how-to's and stuff and I came across the App Manager reference but it's not available on the market anymore. Is there another app or something we can do to get app shortcuts on the NT home screen?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] asawi:
A couple of seconds on Google gave me http://www.appszoom.com/android_applications/tools/nook-color-app-manager_ykey.html

It doesn't work on 1.4.3 though. 1.4.2 is fine.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] MadMikeSS:
That links back to the google play store that doesn't have it anymore. Anyone have the APK? The NT I have has 1.4.2 on it.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] asawi:
Ooops! Sorry! But do a Google and explore some search results and I'm confident you'll find it. I know I did last week without too much difficulty.

You all know that we all use kies to connect net on computer through our mobile. But really I am just fed up of kies. Its nothing but a piece of a crap. I really cant believe how a well reputed company samsung gives such software to people. I use it to connect internet to computer via my mobile. But it takes a lot of ram of my pc. Also sometimes net get connected but sometimes not.

I want suggestion guys is there is any light weight pc suit like nokia which can be used to connect net to computer???

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] arindammanidas:
I think i9003 already has usb tethering :) connect to pc in usb development mode > on phone goto settings > wireless n network > tethering > tick usb tethering > a new network device will be there on pc and u'll be connected provided u have enabled data connection on phone. Theres another way also : if u have installed proper drivers, go to control panel > create new dial up connection > select i9003 modem & enter phone number as *99# > username password blank.

Also in the phone & modem options in control panel, select your modem(i9003) > properties > advanced tab > in extra initialization settings type at+cgdcont=1,"IP","yourapn"

Replace yourapn with the correct apn eg. bsnlnet for bsnl.

Now you can connect with the connection u created. Hope this helps. :)

[TouchPad General] af250xxl:
I have a spare al-cheapo Toshiba netbook that I bought on Black Friday.

($143 + 5 hours of waiting in 27-degree temp) It came with Windows 7

but I managed to get rid of it and install a slimmed-down Windows XP.

The Windows XP OS only takes up 1.3GB of hard drive space, since all

the non-essential junk were all taken out one by one.

now that I have Android running fairly smoothly on my Touchpad, I can't

help but wonder.... is it possible to run Windows XP on the Touchpad?

thanks! :)
[TouchPad General] dmarchant:
No, XP needs an Intel / AMD processor, and will not run on an ARM processor as in the Touchpad.
[TouchPad General] danknee:
Win 7 > Win XP
[TouchPad General] Drachen808:
I wholeheartedly agree that Win7>WinXP and that WinXP needs x86 chip architecture (as opposed to the ARM architecture in the touchpad). However, you can use splashtop remote desktop to access your netbook remotely through the touchpad. You install it on your netbook then you download the app on your touchpad. The app is 5 bucks through the market, but if you hurry you can get it for free through getjar (kinda like the amazon app store, google it).
[TouchPad General] savedroid:
as they told you, winxip and win7 require an x86 architeture while touchpad's is ARM, probably we will be able to run win8 when they will release the arm compiled version (in late 2012?)
[TouchPad General] spunker88:
Up until now Windows has been x86/64 based. Windows 8 will be arm based so there is hope, but the touchpad does make a good remote desktop client since the 1024*768 resolution is commonly used in windows

Thanks the link, this site seems to have some good content. Sadly i seem to have missed the splashtop app for free but still good to know

Once u install the application, just use your browser.
