[Nokia Lumia 800] sHaHiN786:
From my review, my battery seems to be getting better now, first week after the update, battery was dreadful, it seems to be a whole lot better now. Give it a week, if it continues, email Nokia support, since you hopefully have your warranty, they'll check and replace it if it's faulty, I'm suffering from some horrible notification bug, that's worse, getting your notification when you enter message/whatsapp...-_-
[Nokia Lumia 800] load"":
Have same problem. The last update have reduced full charge capacity from 1420 mA to 1303 mA and it's still decreasing every charge. Hope is's soft bug, otherwise nokia should exchange killed batteries phones.
[Nokia Lumia 800] dannejanne:
Nokia says not to trust their diagnostics tool when it comes to degrading capacity. The battery should be fine anyway unless it reports less than 1000mAh.
[Nokia Lumia 800] ihlades:
Nokia's biggest mistake was making the Diagnostics available to every user. Now everybody thinks Nokia stole their precious mAh...

Note: It doesn't even matter the update gave us some hours in autonomy.
[Nokia Lumia 800] dannejanne:
Yep. Without it most users would actually enjoy their phones.
[Nokia Lumia 800] luisillons:
So the Diagnostics tool gives a bad reading?

Today, when I plugged the charger off, the charge percent inmediately went down from 100% to 98%. Maybe there´s some kind of software bug thay doesn´t give the real battery performance.

P.S.: I actually enjoy my phone. Love it.
[Nokia Lumia 800] fletcher1989:
This happened to me also this morning. Took my phone off charge, unlocked it and then was at 98% but going to keep an eye on it throughout the day. I got roughly 15 hours use yesterday and 5 hours of that was when i was at work.
[Nokia Lumia 800] nagesh_boppana:
I am getting terrible battery life after the update. 100 % at last mid night. By the morning it is at 85%. It seems the battery life got worsen by a 40 % decrease before the update.

Should I restore my Lumia 800?
[Nokia Lumia 800] dannejanne:
I get weird battery issue on my latest 800. About every second charge the battery drains very fast doing nothing. The next charge it is fine. Next after that it can drain. And so it goes. Something fishy with software indeed. It was preloaded with 11501 from factory so I have not updated myself.

Nokia need to take a detailed look at this. As it is now they fully think the issue is fixed when in face it is not. As the topic implies it actually made things worse compared to old firmware. Those 15% charge that were lost in old firmware it lasted longer anyway because it had no drain.
[Nokia Lumia 800] sHaHiN786:
Yup, you're right, I'm getting that, some days it's pretty good, and some days it's just damn awful.
[Nokia Lumia 800] dannejanne:
I have made a factory reset just for the heck of it. Also I have recently started rebooting my phone with the charger plugged after every charge and then unplug when it is booted again. So far no drain after doing so but too early to make any conclusions.

I reseted the phone on a charge cycle with drain and after the reset the drain stopped. So something weird is going on. Hadn't really installed apps etc... syncing/location etc off...
[Nokia Lumia 800] Schilkeplayer:
Unfortunately I do not even have the good days result. After I updated my Lumia to .11500 my battery drains really quick with doing

nothing

. Before going to sleep I had about 60%, waking up it was empty, in 6 hours! Before I could last about 1.5 days with my phone. Hardly 10 hours with normal use. 3G on but wifi and bt off.

Does anyone know how to change this or to change it back to the earlier version of software?

I love this phone and its OS, but the battery consumption is just wrong!

Thanks.
[Nokia Lumia 800] luisillons:
Same issue with battery drain. Not that frequent though. Two times in two weeks. It´s random I think. Thing is that I´ve noticed that it has occurred when the phone shows maximum than my average battery capacity.

Normally phone shows 1170 mAh when fully charged. Strangely enough I get a very decent battery life. More than 24 hours with normal to heavy use.

But today it showed 1370 mAh fully charged and it´s not passed 12 hour barrier.
[Nokia Lumia 800] dannejanne:
Since I made that factory reset the drain has not come back so far. Now I get good battery life and it's usually at 70% when I go to sleep at nights with moderate use throughout the day.
[Nokia Lumia 800] devildevel:
Is this what everyone is doing for best battery or is it just me?

Used to get heavy drain when I get the mobile:

I had to do below:

1) Location services off - i use very low though.

2) Removing people tile

3) Display brightness - LOW

4) Settings->Applications->Games->Connect to Xbox LIVE-> OFF

(with ON, used to drain battery alot atleast for me)

5) Settings->Background tasks->Weather->Off

(not sure of this, but I don't use it so I switched off)

6) Removing XBox Live Tile (In fact all live tiles like App Highlights etc...)

7) Date+time -> Set automatically -> OFFFF (I don't think we need it unless we go to other country)

8) Phone Update -> Turn off notifications

By the way,

I use push email outlook on always
[Nokia Lumia 800] _Madmatt:
Just restore your backup in Zune. Connect the phone, go to the phone tab. Settings -> updates -> restore. Good luck!
[Nokia Lumia 800] uiqjirka:
Unnecessary restriction..
[Nokia Lumia 800] devildevel:
What to do. Now a days all smart phones come with great features and poor battery life.

By the way, anybody knows how to turn off fast dormancy in our lumia 800? I used to get much better battery life by turning off fast dormancy in android phones ( obviously my network is not supporting the feature though)
[Nokia Lumia 800] sHaHiN786:
So you're limiting the phones key features for a battery problem? Why not contact Nokia? I must be honest, if Nokia were to tell me to switch off so many features of my phone, I would tell them to kindly p*** off, as I've had many phones before it that didn't pose a problem like this, if it's a fault, they should act to it, not make you rectify their mistakes. At the end of the day, if you broke your phone accidently, would they fix it for you? So why should you? ;)
[Nokia Lumia 800] uiqjirka:
HTC Titan has a battery with the capacity larger only for 100mAh and despite this it works longer than Lumia 800.Windows Phone has very good power managment..
[Nokia Lumia 800] sHaHiN786:
Exactly as you say, our processors are almost half that of Android too, the screen resolution too is nothing compared to what the iPhone's Retina and Super AMOLED's have to output, Windows phones have good battery life cos' of that reason, it's why I presume that HTC, and even Nokia have put such batteries in the models, because the processors and RAM don't consume much, this is just Lumia 800's power management all gone wrong, and Nokia don't want to admit it, they just admitted to the bug, and believed to have fixed it, with only the newer models. :mad:
[Nokia Lumia 800] devildevel:
+1
[Nokia Lumia 800] sHaHiN786:
Click thanks. ;)
[Nokia Lumia 800] devildevel:
You are right on every word.

Just a correction - I switch off services when not using them. Whenever needed I will/can switch them on :). Its a pain but this is what i had to do till the prob fixed.

Will give a try for few more days before contacting nokia.
[Nokia Lumia 800] dannejanne:
Well you must have some faulty phones somehow because mine lasts a full day with heavy use without problem and I don't have to turn off any features at all.

Sure the battery is not good. But it's not that bad so I have to keep thinking twice before doing anything with it. Yesterday I had 68% left after 20 hours. Admitedly I did not use it very much but the usual moderate use that you expect from a phone when you have had it for a little while and you don't keep it in your hand 24/7.

[HTC Rezound] remmy5r:
I do not take credit for any of the following, it was all information I have found posted here. Please thank the ops in the threads I link, it is their work that supplied all the information. Thanks.

For all the noobs out there (like me) here is a direct step by step process I used to go from rooted via one click root, to get the new ota, new hboot, and radios.

Thanks to con, andybones, chad, nilsp and everyone else who has answered my questions over the last few days!

I didnt take the ota, I used cons ota rom.. this was my steps for that to stay stock rom but get the ota.

Also, I am running amon ra.

1) download rom from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1467329

2) boot into recovery, flash rom....

here you can go two ways, if you dont want the new baseband, it will flash the ph98img and not do anything, if you want the new radios I will tell you how I did it, then tell you where you need to start if you wont want them. if you dont want the new radios, and are having wifi issues go to step 13 (and be sure to thank andybones for that tutorial hell thank everyone whos threads I have linked to here).

3)perform nandroid back up

4)via adb (thing you used to unlock originally) fastboot oem lock YOU ARE NOW LOCKED.

5)boot into hboot it will flash the ph98img

6) Unlock bootloader (find the email with the unlock.bin code and follow those instructions)

7)Reboot phone

8)connect to pc, charge only usb debugging enabled

9)run one click root

Proceed with this if you get the mainver error ONLY otherwise if having wifi issues, proceed to step 13

10) after rooted follow this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1467099 NOTE, op in the thread supplied his miscnew.img USE IT! (post 29)

11)Read this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1459347 it will explain how to get the ph98s to work.

11a) do the ph98 file thing to the ph98 img in the amon ra ph98zipto get it to flash in bootloader

12) after amon ra is restored, perform restore nandroid.

If wifi is not working, even if you dont have mainver issues do step 13

13) If having wifi issues as in not working go to this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1467793 and follow instructions EXACTLY!!!

Now you should be running new radios, hb2.11, the 2.6 kernel etc.

You will have to follow the post in step 11 to get any ph to work from now on.

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE, BURN YOUR HOUSE DOWN OR ABDUCTED BY ALIENS BY FOLLOWING THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS.
[HTC Rezound] Tmask32:
Thanks for posting this, it should help me. Question: After i do this can i reflash a custom gb rom "like nils p gingersense" and still keep the new radio and other firm ware that came in the ota. Or will it not work?
[HTC Rezound] remmy5r:
I don't know, you would have to ask someone else about that. I haven't played with custom roms yet.
[HTC Rezound] mjh68:
yes, the firmware will always be there only thing will change is the kernel's and UI depending upon what rom your running.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
all of the links in the original post are bad. They all have been trunkated. Use the URL feature of the post (earth with the link on it) to make the URLs work.
[HTC Rezound] remmy5r:
Con, links fixed. Thanks for the heads up.
[Kindle Fire General] Retorrent:
So after reading and trying how others on here fixed that very same problem I deiced its time to make a post and ask for help because those other methods did not work.

Ok I did something stupid and I went ahead and did a factory reset to my kindle. Yes I know it was a complete noob thing to do and I should have known better seeing that I have rooted and flashed ROMs on all my other android devices and never once did something that dumb but I did it this time. Now I do have a back up made and had it safely stored on my PC.

Problem is that I can't get into recovery it stuck on the FFF logo and holding down the button only brings it back up. When the device restarts windows recognizes it as an unknown usb device and won't connect and Adb also wont recognize the device or show that it is connected. So now I need to ask someone who is more knowledgeable then me on what to do next. Any help will be appreciated

Ok update: Was able to solve my own problem using the Kindle fire utility and by uninstalling the drive for the kindle through the device manager, then using the drive install_drivers.bat in the KFU folder to reinstall the drivers. I next unplugged my kindle from the pc, turned it off by holding the button on the kindle in and then restarted it with the usb plugged into the pc. My Pc recognized my kindle and I was then able to use KFUs Bootmode menu and once in there used option 1. to boot it in normal mode. Hope this helps anyone who was stuck like I was. My memory of which adb commands to use was a bit rusty but using the KFU helped with that part.
[HTC Sensation XL] uvgur:
how do i unroot my sensation XL?
[HTC Sensation XL] rdewa:
you just download HTC Super Tool v3 from here :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1343114

after that you just write number 10 in the CMD window then hit ENTER and wait few scnds your phone should be unrooted
[HTC Sensation XL] rlamba:
You can also unroot by locking the bootloader.
[HTC Sensation XL] rdewa:
you dud as far as i know the bootloader has nothing to do with rooting or unrooting :confused:
[HTC Sensation XL] rlamba:
Check your facts before you open your big mouth.

see below

Its very simple mate. Relock the bootloader using command fastboot oem lock from bootloader screen. Once done phone will rebbot into bootloader again so you can flash any of the ruu.exe from runnymede official rom thread

This was answered in a few post befow this one.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Qwerty123 \m/:
I'm on MIUI, and well i get around 12hours of usage, Moderate that too :(

I plan on going back to .42

So any tweaks to improve battery life ?

And anyway to make the Brightness SKYHIGH like that on MIUI

-Using that AutBrighness Xperia APP from market solves this ? :)

I plan on using

-V6 supercharger

-Then .238 kernel over .62 baseband

Any other tweaks ? :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] taaviu:
Can i ask how do you get only 12h?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Deleted member 4331532:
can i ask how to get at least 10h on MIUI? o_O
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] taaviu:
Hahaaa....go and by new battery :)

Seems like your battery is "done" :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ThilinaC:
>>So any tweaks to improve battery life ?

+.0.238 kernel gave me extra batt life,baseband I use it 56.

+.Use flight mode at night,now it only eat like 3-4% of batt for whole 7 hours(yeah I sleep 6-7 hours :P ) while in normal mode it eat around 8-9% least :/

>>And anyway to make the Brightness SKYHIGH like that on MIUI

This does the trick ;)

Batt life on Neo V is one of the worst I've ever used,maybe this is normal to smart phones :/ btw what is v6 super charger ?
[HTC Wildfire S] Saftpackl:
Hey!

I looked everywhere to find a solution to my GPS that's not working and ended up with this thread, where crypted offers a scripted solution, including the agps solution, using the NTP servers.

I selected the Google Build and after a Restart, the GPS locked and I was happy!

But unfortunately, it locked 260km away from my position :-/

I know that some users already experienced similar problems, but I couldn't find any solution yet.

Did I miss something? :D
[HTC Wildfire S] b02:

[HTC Wildfire S] Saftpackl:
Hey!

These are two of the solutions I tried, first the scripted one (I actually wanted to post this link but I accidentally took an other ^^) and then the other one.

There was no change, I also think, that both describe a similar way to solve it.

Right now, I saw, that there are two gps.conf files, one in /etc/gps.conf and one in /system/etc/gps.conf, but I don't think that this is the problem..

BTW: Heres the GPS Status - there are no Satellites showing up, is this normal?
[HTC Wildfire S] b02:
well, try with this too :

4. This works with ANY ROM unless the ROM has aGPS and/or GPS disabled in the code. This happens with CMx nightlies and some betas! I cannot fix this, neither can you.

9. CMx ROM users may not experience benefits from this patch. However, we have had good reports from CM users with one negative one. Remember to do all of the steps when flashing and the following notes are important too!

11. Reports show that certain ROM's including some CM builds require a modification in the build.prop. You need to change "ro.ril.def.agps.mode = 2" or "ro.ril.def.agps.mode = 0" to be "ro.ril.def.agps.mode = 1" in order for aGPS to properly function. Only do this IF YOU ARE HAVING PROBLEMS after attempting the standard patch.

the 11 one may get it to work ... ?
[HTC Wildfire S] Saftpackl:
I tried that already (also tried different config layouts), but unfortunately, it changed nothing.

Isn't the aGPS just for finding the nearest satellites faster? So, it seems, that aGPS is finding the wrong position (maybe because of some NTP servers?) and that the normal gps still isn't even working (because I tried to get GPS running since I flashed CM7)..

Hmmm..
[HTC Wildfire S] b02:
i guess it's not working, somehow, since you can't find ANY satellite :o

did you try any other rom, and did gps work when u were stock ?
[HTC Wildfire S] Saftpackl:
^^

Yes, it worked on stock rom, and i believe it also did on another (maybe Mindhaxors ROM)

But I like CM very much and would prefer not having to change, these are like two worlds for me since I tried it out ;-)
[HTC Wildfire S] kenny47:
I had the same issue, using CM7 nightly. I applied the patch and GPS was showing a fixed location far away from actual location. Then I tried a combination of using another app (GPS test instead of GPS status), calibration of compass (rotating in all three axes a cuple of times) and removal of AGPS data and GPS started to work in gps test as well as on google maps. After reboot however I was not able to reproduce it. Now I don't have any fix..I'll try it tomorrow, maybe I'll have more luck.
[HTC Wildfire S] b02:
make nand backup and try full factory reset clean dalvik cache and stuff, and reflash... try it even with new sd card or just some clean one...

p.s. flash latest nightly, or 14th january one, since it's tested ;-)

[HTC Wildfire S] realaaa:
I think I might be having the same problem, in my case after applying GPS patches the location returned by GPS was constant (and far away from my actual location). I am yet to understand and fix it, but I think I'm getting closer

UPDATE @estantor - yep I'm having the same issue, the GPS is either stuck at exactly the same coordinates, or lately it stopped locking on to the satellites
[HTC Wildfire S] playagiron:
those are the exact coordinates where my CM72 GPS is also stuck, in the middle of nowhere in France.

Really strange, I wonder if flashing a more recent CM72 update might help?

UPDATE: DId a new flash with CM72 RC0, applied the fix and now its fast and correct ;-)!!!
[HTC Wildfire S] Saftpackl:
did you install the latest nighly build? i'm still stuck :-/

which fix exactly did you apply?

Edit: GPS is working after I installed m1ndh4x0rs ROM where it worked before and reverting to my previous backup (CM7) it still shows the wrong location, though, when GPS has a weak or no signal
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Road66:
Why does the camera set the settings on 0.3 megapixels instead of 5 mpx (which is the maximum). I just found this out and I havn't changed anything in the settings by my own.

You guys should look it up since the device does it by itself.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Dusk252:
Is that so? Mine never did that... I'm curious now: does it change it back to 0.3MP when you set it in 5MP?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] tievolu:
Not sure if this explains it, but I've noticed that if you switch to the front facing camera to take a picture, then switch back to the main camera, the resolution setting stays at the maximum resolution of the front facing camera (640x480) and you have to manually change it back to 5MP.
