Is your wifi always on? That drains the battery!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irajvi:
1. open wifi networks - press menu button-go to advance settings. in wifi sleep policy change to when screen turns off.

2. in accounts & sync, disable both options (auto sync, background data) u can use them when needed.

3. in privacy, disable both automatic restore & backup my data.

4. uncheck haptic feedback & audio feedback from sounds option

5. display can be put to standard or better on movie.

install go launcher ex. then install power master widget. this is one of the most useful tool i have got.

i had got almost 2.5 days juice out of mine on second charging cycle. (mine is rooted & running chrack's v14 lite rom with franco 6 kernel - no uv oc)

Best is to root ur phone, opt for some lite roms (cassies, chrack's) so that samsung bloatware are removed. custom kernel is the key to better performance & battery.

avoid widgets if you can. dont use facebook, maps applications, avoid google latitude.

& dont judge the battery life without 2-3 charging re-charging cycles.

best of luck

Thanks, I will try some of these things.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olsolano:
As many others have pointed out, it all depends on what you are running.

However, it has also been my experience that the battery doesnt last that long.

I personally find myself charging the phone at least twice per day and I also plug it into the car charger whenever I'm driving.

Things that I have done to improve battery life include turning off the auto-sync for the accounts. I now sync manually.

Also the screen brightness was using too much battery and the auto-adjust settings were not cutting it, so I decided to manually reduce the brightness to about 25% and this works well most of the time. Unless you are outdoors and the sun is too bright, then I would re-adjust.

Despite this, I still think battery performance is below average.

The perennial AOS bug has always been the root cause of battery drains for most of Android phones or Smartphones...

Most has a leeway of installing custom roms (Most custom Roms are designed to leverage battery life and maintaining the AOS bug in check)

It's really no wonder many after market replaceable Batteries for Android smartphones flourished and selling like pancakes... it's because most users find shortchanged in using the full capabilities of their android device.

it is a noted fact that one of the best feature, it's AOS (Android OS, running on all android devices, tablets and smartphones)..... can also be the worst nightmare to all Android users. It's a hog in eating and draining the battery life on the phone....

iphone standby time: 200 hours

Note standby time: 10.4 days. But I can only keep 30 hours without use it. Seems iphone's standby time actually better than note.

iphone 4s battery 1435mah, note battery 2500mah, I think note shouldn't be so weak on this.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smalmagal:
Meh...the battery argument is overrated, especially for the Note. It has a huge assed screen, and a huged assed battery. It gets your "average" 1-2 days usage before it's completely drained. I don't understand how hard it is to charge something every day/night, or even put it on the charge at the office if you need to. Who is honestly away from electricity for days at a time unless you're camping? At which point, you probably wouldn't want your cell anyway!

Edit: I usually usually get .5 percent an hour battery drain while in "sleep" mode...which is average. The rest of the battery drain is entirely up to the user...what applications are running, how bright the screen is, kernel, ect...and has little to do with the phone itself.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spo0f:
Guys, i have a huge problem with something.

When i open BBS and i open the Raw Alarms chart under "Android" i see "android.intent.action.TIME_TICK" which has like 10 times more wakelocks than the next greater value. Say "100" for the TIME_TICK and 10 for the next with most wakelocks.

So far i cannot manage to find what is causing this.

Any idea?

Thanks :)

Someone with idea? I've turned off the automatic clock update. but this wakelock is still there. It's killing my battery ;/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flaco05:
OK, I tried a few things now, and the main thing that seems to work is to set the Wifi to sleep when the phone goes to sleep. This has gotten me several days worth of battery life so far. I hope this helps.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] truelies1:
I believe I found what's the problem. It's a weather living wallpaper, after I replaced it with a picture wallpaper. The time lasted to 85hours(more than 3 days). I think android has a design problem that after screen turned off, the living wall paper and wi-fi still running. Apple usually turns off the wi-fi after that.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spo0f:
Go to Wi-Fi Settings -> Left touch button - > Advance - > Wi-Fi Sleep policy.

But, as it is discussed a lot around - Wi-Fi in stand-by drains much less battery than the mobile internet.

Anyone on my question, please. No way this wakelock is so unknown ;/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] truelies1:
The android 'home' key really confused me. If we press home key, all the apps will be in background. How can we know which one runnung in the background and eating the battery?

We can't use back key for all apps to make it exit, it's very incontinent.
[General Topics] Fallingwater:
I've installed Google Music on my D2G running Galnet MIUI and I'm loving it.

I have another Android device, a supercheap WM8650 tablet running Uberoid. I want to turn it into a cloud player using Google Music so I can play my music on it without having to buy more high-capacity microSD cards.

So I installed Google Music on it (latest version - I'm not in the USA so I have to download the apk externally), and it promptly stopped working. I googled a bit, and it appears Google Music has trouble running on generic devices. I'm wondering if the reason for this is known, and if there are ways to fix this problem. I'd have no problems using one of the alternatives, but from what I'm seeing Google Music is the only one that doesn't have ridiculously restrictive storage - I have 15 gigs worth of ogg files, so stuff like Droptunes is useless to me.
[General Topics] BroidDrionic:
You could try browsing to music.google.com from a browser that supports user agent spoofing, like dolphin HD, and set it to a Desktop user agent?

I know that's kind of a crappy workaround, but I'm not sure about why GM wouldn't work well on generic android devices...
[General Topics] Fallingwater:
Sounds fine in principle, but doesn't work so well on my tablet - it's very slow, and it takes a long time for the site just to load the list, let alone launch the player. I really need a native app.

The only alternative I've found so far is Audiogalaxy (a name I remember fondly from the early days of peer-to-peer... *sigh* ), but that isn't a cloud storage player, just a streaming player. In other words, if I want to have my library permanently available I need to have a computer with significant storage always on and connected, acting as a file server. A Windows computer, so I can't use any old diskless laptop with a USB thumbdrive. And if my connection or power goes down I can kiss my files goodbye. And the server wastes power.

This will do as an emergency measure, but I really need someplace to put my files. Is there a music player that will work from normal ftp storage? I have a website, I could easily upload my music to the space I use for it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nummer3:
Hello,

I have a problem with my Samsung Glaxy S2 that I dont understand. I cant download big pdf attachements to the stock email client or Touchdown. Currently im trying to download a .pdf thats 18mb and all I get is a error message saying; "Error, file size too large"

I have tested on a iPhone 4S and theres no problem there, so it cant be restrictions in the exchange active sync enviroment.

I have also tested with WIFI turned on but it doesnt help.

So, do you know if the Samsung Galaxy S2 has problems with big email attachements or can it be some problem with the protocoll that communicates with exchange?

Im would be very thankfull for all the help and input you can provide in this matter!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brooon:
Hey my xda friends out there! ;)

Being a pretty new Nexus owner, I´m getting crazy by serious WiFi issues over here. My Nexus can´t get any stable Wifi connection at all...as soon as I´m making up a connection, I can be pretty sure that I will loose it after a few minutes. The only way out of this is...like I knew it from buggy roms before...to switch WiFi off and on again. After this procedure, I do have WiFi again, but it´s the same situation like before...after a few minutes --> bam, I´m out again.

Well, after some research on several forums out there, I can be sure that there are some other guys, struggling with same issues as well. Some of them are just having some standby issues, some of them can´t get any wifi connection at all. But an answer to my sort of issue? No way...

So what´s the deal here? I´m on a Stock Rom, what could be the reason for my WiFi issues? Any ideas? :confused:

Would be very very grateful for some support!! :)

Beastly Galaxy Nexus Prime!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] copkay:
My initial suspicion is on a router configuration. Do you have this issue on multiple wireless networks, or just yours at home/work? Try somewhere like a coffee shop with an unsecured network. If you don't have the same issues on other networks, I'd look into messing with your wireless configuration. My router at home gives me issues losing connection to Google's servers (gray signal bars) intermittently, and I haven't yet found a solution.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brooon:
Hey copkay! Thanks for your input!

The point is:

Dell Streak,

HD2,

SGSII,

Flyer,

Touchpad,

Transformer,

Galaxy Note,

Sensation.

ALL of them worked/are working well. So this has to be a Nexus thing, or am I wrong? Maybe its working better with an unsecured open WiFi Hotspot, but hey, this shouldn´t be the main place to work (imao!) :eek:

What do you think about it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] copkay:
You have too many gadgets. ;)

But yes, that's a good question. WiFi can be finicky with some drivers, so it's possible that yes, it's a problem with the Nexus in particular. The reason I'm asking is that it's much easier to narrow down the problem when you eliminate certain solutions. So does it work properly on other wireless networks? Does it do the same? Does it drop connection entirely, and if so, for how long? Or does it simply switch to gray bars?

I certainly don't recommend switching to no network security, but if it's a particular router/setting, more information would help to deduce the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Segoris:
I had some of the same issues with my wifi (as well as sometimes it wouldn't fully connect and would get into an authenticating loop). I never had this on my past devices though. I don't know the ultimate solution to it, but I have found some work arounds for some of the networks I frequent.

What I've found is that I've had to turn off the auto detect wifi frequency band and leave only the 2.4ghz band while other times I've had to turn it back to auto detect.

While annoying and not the desired answer, hopefully it can help you out in the mean time.

Well, about time they got the nightly build bot going again ... after they ran around asking for donations because they obviously need a server infrastructure every CG Animation Studio is jealous about.

Still, doesn't change the fact that the Shakira CM7/FXP ROM is utter crap.
[XPERIA X8 General] Spevky:
I totally agree with you man. But it is nice to see that CyanogenMod gives a c*ap about our phone , well at least they did give a c*ap in the old days but now i think they aren't even gonna make the damn update. But Dx is gonna make an update on the GingerDx cuz the update was released on the Hero and Legend he can port it and stuff maybe it is good or maybe it is the same like any other CyanogenMod that they built.
[About XDA developers] DaanJordaan:
Dear admins/website developers,

It would be a really nice feature to be able to rate a post.

-1 off topic/offensive

0 off topic/irrelevant

+1 on topic

+2 on topic/informative

+3 on topic/must read

Something like that. They use it on the dutch website tweakers.net and it's really handy.

By filtering out the off topic posts. You have a much cleaner view of the thread.

The user is free to choose the level of rating. For example I wan't to read the "thank you's".

I set the viewing level to 0 offtop/irrelevant.

But if I would be a developer I would set it to +1 or +2, so I could easily read up on new developements users have made or requested.

Ofcourse the rating of the posts has to be done by users themselves.

And they themself have to be rated as well (their credibilty).

If one user A rates a post -1, but five other users rate that post +1. The credibilty of user A goes down.

I think this is a really nice way to clean up a thread.

Popular rom threads get spammed so fast with "thank you's" and/or questions, that there's hardly keeping up with the actual developing discussion, bug reports, fixes, etc.

Cheers,

Daan
[About XDA developers] cajunflavoredbob:
If a post needs to be removed, report it. Mods are generally very quick to fix those things.
[About XDA developers] DaanJordaan:
I know but I don't think it's appropriate to report a "thank you" post:p

What I meant was, viewing a thread on different levels.

Normal, informative and developement. Or somethng like that.

Now that I think about it you could indeed skip the -1 and just report offensive posts to the mods.

Mods will still have to remove it. Not a big deal ofcourse, probably takes 2 minutes.

But with the system above that is no longer necessary. Users become the mods in a way.

Cheers,

Daan
[About XDA developers] cajunflavoredbob:
Nothing wrong with reporting "Thanks" posts in my opinion. I do it all the time. Dev threads get cluttered up enough without having newbies clutter it up with "Thanks" or "ETA?".
[About XDA developers] DaanJordaan:
That's exactly what I mean.

Wouldn't it be nice if you, the user, could mod the post.

That way you won't have those annoying cluttered up threads anymore.

The posts are still there, but you filter them out to your own needs.
[About XDA developers] Archer:
I think the biggest issue with your idea (which I like, btw) is the server overheads. You're basically asking for every single thread to have its own dedicated view. I've seen similar types of features in sites like Stack (I use Stack Overflow quite a lot) and it works very well for them, but they're not forums - they're purely Q&A sites and they discourage discussion. While that difference is not particularly pertinent to your suggestion I do think you're thinking of this site more along their terms.

The mods are there for a reason, and as tedious as it may be, cleaning threads is one of their tasks. Just report things that are out of place.
[About XDA developers] cajunflavoredbob:
A quick fix would be to use the XDA Toolbar for Chrome. You can collapse posts, sigs, and images. It's probably going to be more to your liking than us telling you that XDA isn't going to implement this feature.

[20-Dec-11] XDA Toolbar for Chrome v1.7
[About XDA developers] GrimReaper24:
I agree with the report button... Cause a mod can review it to see if it needs to be removed.. If they did it the way your talkin about.. Things could get messy since some new guys or someone wanted to be not a nice person could just down rate your thread for no reason at all... Which does happen from time to time.. I have no idea why when a bunch of others love it.
[About XDA developers] DaanJordaan:
Quite true! I Didn't think of that!

I did realize it would be a lot of work implementing this system.

Thanks I'll try that out, I'm running Chrome anyway.

New users should not be able to mod posts yet.

There should be a rating system for the users themselves, as stated in the first post.

If user A rates posts -1 while 5 others rate +1, then eventually user A won't be able to mod posts anymore.

Well, I guess I'll have to use the report button more often and more aggressively.

It was just an idea.

Cheers,

Daan
[About XDA developers] Archer:
You would have thought I'd think of that, wouldn't you ;)

[About XDA developers] sg1969:
kind of similar request: how about keeping it simpler, and have the ability to filter a thread so it shows only "thanked" posts? I think this would be extremely useful, and although I know very little of programming, it shouldn't be difficult? This way for example if I'm in a custom Android ROM thread, instead of searching or reading through posts, you just filter out the questions and other "less useful" posts and get straight to the answers or the more useful/interesting ones.

Sorry if this had been requested before (or if there already is the ability to do it..... ) but just saw this thread and thought I'd jump in :P

[About XDA developers] KidCarter93:
The post rating system only exists in the Galaxy Nexus forum at the moment and has been there a while now.

I'm not too sure about it though because I figured there would be buttons to click to rate the post up or down.

I couldn't understand how simply showing that message (one in screenshot) would solve anything.
