[Motorola Droid Bionic] Laura Dunn:
Other than the incorrect meter LucasMN, how much better is the extended battery in terms of single full charge. I am debating on getting an extended battery because I use my droid heavily throughout the day for work. I charge with the same habits as you. With my current standard battery I get to about 50% by 2pm (my day starts at 8:30a)

[Motorola Droid Bionic] LucasMN:
I cannot compare it to the standard battery as I've never let the standard get lower than 30%.

3 days and 9 hours on the extended battery included 2 full work days. I work in IT and will quickly check e-mails throughout the day on my phone. Out of the office I use it quite a bit for facebook and streaming music. 95% of use was over Wifi though.

I bought the battery + cover off ebay for $10. It's about 3x as thick as the original battery.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
So I was a bit concerned about battery now seems to be pretty good strange how some days I get 5 hours to 20 percent now going on 7 at only 50 percent
[Motorola Droid Bionic] psigti:
Can't post screen shot since phone is stuck at motor screen atm, but...with a dim screen, cal'd battery and debloated rom , I can burn through a full charge OEM extended battery in half an hour or less. I use a ton of SMS...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
a half hour for a extended battery are you freaking kidding me and i thought this was bad i sms a lot too facebook and xda mostly through the day that is just crazy i am still at 50 percent and now at 7 in a half hours looks like i might make it to almost 12 on this one
[Motorola Droid Bionic] psigti:
when I get to a PC and unfutz my bionic ill screen shot it for you. To be honest I have always been a battery abuser though. BB curve to storm to og Droid to d2 and now bionic...all had to have extended batteries.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
Most recent update pics charged for about thirty minutes at fourth percent pretty impressive I think
[Motorola Droid Bionic] LucasMN:
I would love to see this. With my extended battery, I stayed at 1% for over a day though. Unless yours is powering off, I bet that would be the case. 30 min for an extended battery, even an OEM standard battery sounds like BS to be honest, unless it is physically damaged.

With the FeraLab v4, sometimes its ram is not enough.

I don't want to flash new ROM too often,so can I add or replace some files from the FeraLab v6 and make the ROM(still v4) have more free ram like the v6?

If yes,which files can I add or replace from the v6?

i heard there was a ROM installer called AROMA... baisically what is it? and is there any benefits of using it? and does it work on our dz? and anybody tried it?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c00ller:
From my understanding, it is not something we use per se, it is something ROM cookers use to make certain ROM components optional. Once AROMA is integrated into a ROM, then users who flash the ROM will be given options of which components they want or do not want to be installed. For example, g4rb4g3 used AROMA to make a CM7 build that makes wi-fi calling components optional.

And for reference, here is the AROMA main thread.

Has anybody managed to successfully decompile/recompile and run phone.apk for LPB?

I can decompile and recompile without errors. But when I try to make a call with the modified apk, I can make calls, but it hangs and FCs when ending the call.

I've tried decompiling and recompiling without making any changes with the same result.

Can you enter this code and check for battery information:

*#*#4636#*#*

You can check the battery health and temperature. It might give you some insights.

Do you have good reception? Is it constantly trying to connect to 3G networks? Can you check apps which might be trying to connect to Internet all the time? Do you have this problem once you flash a clean rom (or maybe it starts after installing apps)? Have you tried stock ROM?

I've read about this in other threads... not sure if I've already tried it... ull need to do a factory reset to wipe all data and battery calibrations. Once u reset... flash Evilistos ICS rom 4.0.4 and use the Air Kernel 3.0 .... flash the Tweaked Nexus Boot Animation (looks really nice but you don't need too lol) and that should do it... =]

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spawn782:
Hi Oogway first of all thanks a whole lot for your response.

I dialed the number and got the following

Battery Status : Discharging

Power Plug : Unplugged

Battery Level : 100

Battery Scale : 100

Battery health : Good

Battery Voltage : 4096 mV

Battery Temp : 34.0 C

Battery Technology : Li-ion

Time since boot : 9:58

Just finished charging it again.

I have good reception, but I have no data plan on this phone so it isn't using any 3G, actually I don't even have 3G in my country :|

I have no apps installed and the problems still happen even with a clean install. Before the person shipped the phone to me I asked them to install the stock rom and when I got it the problem was present, since then I tried different roms but to no avail so far.

Thanks very much for your time and effort in offering possible solutions, I am grateful for your help.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spawn782:
Hi iGoogleNexus, I tried the factory reset and battery calibrations, but did not try the ROM and Kernel you suggested, I will try that. Thanks very much for the suggestion, I will let you know if it works or not.

Its not a new phone its a used phone, but the seller has agreed to refund me if needed, the problem though is that I bought the phone in the US but I am not in the US now, if I return it to him he may be charged taxes etc.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
I have abyssmal battery as well with my used i9020t. Although I have only used various ICS so far and don't know how used the battery is.

At night I put it to airplane mode and closed running apps. In the morning the phone feels warm and battery drained drastically, which makes no sense.

I just got an Anker battery as well and will try some Gingerbread rom. For now I'm using Franco kernal and undervolting by 50mV which help a bit, but not much.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spawn782:
Hi Bedalus, I bought it on swappa. I bought a few phones there before without any problems. I have a paypal receipt from swappa, maybe I can email samsung and find out if they can repair or not. I honestly think its a hardware issue now. Because the battery still drains even when the phone is off. I flashed several radios and roms, wiped battery stats, changed battery, wipe data and factory reset and its all the same.

My issue though is that I am not in the US and the phone was purchased from the US so return may be a problem as well as shipping to Samsung, but I will email them to find out more.

But thanks for your suggestion Bedalus, really appreciate it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spawn782:
Hi Ekasol, does your battery drain even when the phone is off like mine? How much battery life do you typically get? I get around 6 hours. Just to let you know that I did flash the stock ROM on the phone but it made no difference to me.

Mine is the AT&T version, I got the roms here .. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1445621

But you can get the roms for yours here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1063664 in case you have not found the original roms yet. Best of luck, I hope at least one of us is able to get the phone working or repaired.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spawn782:
Bedalus, before I contact Samsung, do you know if rooting and installing custom roms void the warranty?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
Technically yes. However, if you wipe, install a stock rom and bootloader and lock the bootloader afterward, they have no way to tell.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spawn782:
Thanks Harbb
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Can you try this Gingerbread rom NSCollab anyway, I know you said you tried GB already. I don't have time to test with full battery yet, but Gingerbread seem to retain battery life pretty well.

If you still have time, I would say save yourself the hassle and return it, it sounded like hardware issue. And buy the person an iPhone instead. If he/she is not tech savvy it is pointless and will just give the person a difficult time. I do not have an iPhone, but I have to do iPhone tech support for my co-workers, Android would just be a nightmare.

Also if the person don't mind going with T-Mobile, see if you can return it and get a Galaxy S 4G. It is one of my favorite phone. No LED flash and ICS (yet), but you get microSD slot and HSPA+ 21Mbps (cheaper plans too). And best of all the Valhalla roms.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spawn782:
Tried NSCollab, battery drain seems to be a little worse with this ROM. The reason I did not purchase the iphone is because of the cost, I got this for around $260. Thanks for the suggestions though, I will consider them, but so far it looks like this phone has some hardware problems.

Here is my current battery. Not sure how good it is lol.

It does sound like hardware might be the faulty one here (not the battery). Is there a way you can test this battery on another Samsung device (I know this might be hard)? If not, as they stated on the thread, go back to stock with a locked bootloader and ask Samsung for a warranty.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spawn782:
How much were you getting on Gingerbread? Wit light usage how much battery life do you get?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I actually told Samsung everything I'd done over the phone. I think the woman i spoke to ignored the stuff about the custom ROMs I'd been flashing, and the efs folder I'd corrupted. But i restored it to stock before sending it in.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 309041291a:
I'm actually not sure. When I had GB I wasn't too concerned with battery and newer to android so I never tracked it. I remember being able to get at least 18 hours with heavy use (aprox) I would say...

If I lightly used my phone (a few texts, an hour of music, etc) I can get a day. That would require me doing next to nothing. When I leave my phone off I have came back to it 5 hours later only loosing 5-1%. It is pretty nice standby time. As soon as data turns on it plummets though...

Oh and note that the set up I'm using right now is smoother and the battery lasts longer than my my last

Exactly same issue here! Down to the exact extra batteries and everything!

I have those exact same issues with this phone. Did you ever solve these problems?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spawn782:
Unfortunately so far no, if I do I will post here, but if you find a solution please post here to let me know as well. How old is your phone, did you flash it recently or did your phone always have this problem? I am trying to see if we did anything in common that may have caused a problem.

My phone is a used phone and came like this, so I have no idea if it worked better before or not. I saw on some forums that after about a week or two of use the battery life improved, I doubt this will be the case with mine, but I am still hopeful and will try this before I return.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spawn782:
Maybe one of you more knowledgeable guys can explain this to me. Is it that when you charge your battery it starts with around 4,100 mV and as the amount of mV decrease your battery discharges?

The reason I am asking is because I was using OS monitor and my battery was at 69% and it was at 3,875 mV, a couple of mins after I let the phone go into an idle state and when I rechecked battery was at 68% but the mV reading was 3,907 mV .

Is this normal? Is this how it is supposed to work?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
Lithium ion batteries don't lose their voltage much as they discharge. Therefore it is not a good indicator to say that if my battery is at 3900mV now, it will have lost xx% when it hits 3850mV. Most car batteries, for example, lose their voltage somewhat proportional to their charge.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spawn782:
Thanks Harbb, not to beat the topic to death, but I left the battery at 17% and to make sure the battery did not drain when not in use, I pulled out the battery. When I came back home about 3 hours later and put back in the battery the reading was now 7%.

How could this happen?? Does this mean that I can have three bad batteries? Is there any way for me to test this?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
I don't have an electronics background, but the phone must be draining the battery through a short or something of the likes. If you leave your battery charged at 40% for a day without being in the phone, you'll be lucky to lose 2%. If it is draining while the phone is off (i know mine doesn't), then there is some kind of hardware fault.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolfomega23:
The nexus S has always had these battery issues. I just had enough and now run around with two batteries. However I rarely have to change em because of my current setup (in my sig). I'm currently testing Matr1x v17 to see if it is better and I'll let you know.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
The Nexus S has always had drastic battery drain while the phone is off? You may want to reread the problem.

I have the same exact problem.. I bought a new battery but im still not able to charge the phone via anything...

It seems like a hardware issue so far.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgw2jr:
Same exact issue here. 8-10 hours of standby time, in airplane mode, minimum screen brightness. Having tried everything including return to stock and new battery, I'm convinced it's a hardware fault and I don't have a warranty from Samsung. I'm betting the only fix is to sell it to someone who doesn't mind 8 hours of standby/1 hour of talk time and buy a new phone. sigh...

WARNING:I will not be held responsible for any damage to your phone..Read this 3 times before you start doing something.If you still have doubts contact me via PM or ask a question .

Hi guys.. I see many of you are asking how to go from Froyo to Gingerbread and viceversa...This is a tutorial on how to do that as fast as possible with or without computer...

On a computer you will need RSDlite which you can grab here, Motorola drivers from here and this SBF if you are on Gingerbread BL6 and you want to go back to Froyo and Froyo nandroid backup or CWM zip flashable rom( CM7, MIUI, WIUI, CM9,...) based on froyo kernel.

Step 1: Connect your phone to PC and open RSDlite...Choose the sbf that you downloaded and flash(you can manually put the phone in bootloader mode by holding power and volume up when phone boots or the program will do that for you

Step 2: Root your phone using this tool and install 2nd init from here

Step 3: Reboot your phone in recovery, wipe data/factory reset and restore your nandroid or instal the zip flashable rom

If you already have a rooted phone just use the attachements and you will be able to switch between Froyo and Gingerbread without any help from a computer. The time of switching is also shorter , about 5 to 7 minutes . Before flashing a Froyo rom flash the Froyo-boot and before flashing a Gingerbread rom flash the GB-boot.

I repeat :this only applies if you are switching from Froyo to Gingerbread or viceversa.

You can also find the boot files here and a Froyo CEE nandroid here

Hello,

I am planning on using my Galaxy Nexus as my new Desktop computer.

I am planning to achieve this by buying a MHL to HDMI adaptor to display the visual output from my phone to my monitor. I will also be buying a Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse.

My question is Does the Galaxy Nexus or ICS support two bluetooth devices being connect to it at once?

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lambetts:
I too would be interested in this. :-)

Where is the best place to buy a MHL cable and...do they all have a charge feature.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sean is here.:
No idea about the BT connectivity issue, in the worst case you could use 1 BT connection and for the other a USB OTG cable, if the Nex supports it.

The only problems you'll run into is if you need to perform any heavy tasks. MS Word won't run, any of the higher level Adobe software, etc... There are of course substitute mobile apps, but they're not nearly as powerful as the desktop apps. To understand this, try composing a Word document in a mobile app...it works for writing text, but you'll have to manually compose a Table of Contents. Another test would be Power Point, you can make simple slides but you won't be able to make anything complex. And I'm not sure there's even a mobile version of virtual machine software at all.

Good luck. They're noble ambitions. But I'm a coder and need a machine with at least 4GB RAM. I have to be able to compile code, run VMs, make complex documents etc...in a nutshell, it wouldn't work out for me.;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dandwhelan:
I guess everybody's uses for a Desktop is different. I just want it to browse the web, watch youtube videos, watch the odd tv show and movies.

The processing power in the nexus is defiantly sufficient for what I need it for. Also with Kernels around I could overclock it up to 1.5Ghz but I just dont feel compfortable running my phone at 1.5Ghz. So I think 1.35Ghz would be sufficient and be as far as I push it.

Googles Docs can do any word processing or excel documents which I need when at home but will be rarely using this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lambetts:
I just want to really use my phone on my tv and flick back and forward. Reply to texts, emails, web stuff. A good bt rollout keyboard and a small mouse would be probably sufficient.

That link didn't work for me. :-\ so the cable has a charge port on it?
