I'm just trying to achieve what others said they were getting. 20 hours with 5 hours screen on time. Mines not even close.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zer0nine:
I've gotten 6 hours of screen time on my Note.

Mine as well 3 hours screen on is a godsend for me...what kind of settings are you 5hr guys using?

I m going overseas where LTE is not available.

Who want to guess how much on screen time I will get if I turn off LTE and use hspa+ only
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] littlewierdo:
I havent completely drained my Note (the lowest its gotten maybe was around 45%) after a 12 hour period. But I dont turn the screen on all that much.

I drive 11 hours a night so my screen is turned on initially when I get in the truck to connect to my bluetooth fm transmitter and setup my podcast playlist for the night. Maybe 3-5 times during the night I briefly turn the screen on to pause / resume playback, do a check for new podcasts or start an audiobook via Audible.

On a typical night, I have around 60% battery left.

Thru a bit of testing however, I have noticed the two major battery drains are phone calls and the screen on time.

One thing for sure you could do is turn off auto brightness and turn down your brightness manually. There are plenty of widgets available that can make this relatively quick to do.

Another option (I dont know if this is on custom roms or not) that I disabled that fixed some other problems with weird thick bars appearing vertically down the display when looking at anything that has a solid darker colour (for example, the market when it is initially loading and shows the solid grey background) might also affect battery life.

Settings->Display->UNCHECK Adjust Screen Power

While you are there, the touch screen timeout and touchkey duration could probably be reduced from whatever it is defaulted as and this might help a very TINY amount.

Just watched a review of the Note and it looks like this guy got around 3.5 hrs of screen on time with max brightness (skip to 8 minutes 15 seconds in).

I noticed that if you plug in your charger and don't charge all the way to 100 it won't show that its been charged and you can add time to your usage. I'm not saying these people are doing that, but people who aren't honest could be.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] enside0ut:
Yes but it would still show up here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Skizzy034:
Oh
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] technillion:
I'm convinced it's ALL SOFTWARE FIXABLE! The first non-stock GB ROM I used on my int'l NOTE (now I'm on the ATT NOTE) yielded LESS THAN 1% DRAIN an hour on idle! I have the same background apps running (emails, BT, etc.) and the non-stock GB ROM I'm using drains about 5% an hour on idle!

I'm not technical enough to tell you WHY that int'l GB ROM was so good on battery but I know he made certain tweaks to the KERNEL that made the difference.

I say it's only a matter of time before we see these types of results on the ATT NOTE too...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] theonedub:
I was able to get 4-5hrs display consistently on my phone. Now that the 'new factor' has worn off and I am not on it straight for long periods, I get about 3hrs screen time and about 2days 6hrs power on time. Still stock, but I am considering altering clocks to see what crazy numbers can be pulled down.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jietzer:
Im going to try the suggestion for cpuspy. When i first got my note a month ago i was pretty impressed with the battery coming from the evo. I would get 3.5 hrs screen on and would easily last over a day. But starting last week ive seen a major dip and im not sure whats different im rooted stock but now i get 1.5 hours screen on maybe and about 10 hours.

notes - I turn off sync at night when i sleep so it doesn't disturb me. All my secondary emails that aren't gmail only sync once a day. I dont have any social networking apps. so i dont know what app could be eatting it so bad recently.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ddddmitry:
Hi Guys, I have had an iphone 3GS and now just got the NOTE as the battery seemed big in the reviews. But using it, the battery goes Sooo far.

Today for example for under 2hrs of browsing through photos over 3G/4G (LTE DISABLED) i ran out of about 60% of the battery. The display is eating so much and its at the lowest brightness level. Maybe its just too many pixels? too big for the battery?

I thought iphone 3GS was bad, but i was able to do that almost entire day, and still go to sleep with about 20% left on an almost 3 year old device.

3.5hrs of actual screen time is no way enough, and if you go towards one of those Extended batteries almost no case would fit... and i'm a type of person who would love a Tough OTTERBOX Case... Seidio is making some hybrids for the GALAXY NEXUS, i'm sure galaxy note is soon to follow, but any one in the office that uses the note constantly for email push? facebook? Video? do you notice it is absolutely not enough? my 3GS was slow when it would get loaded (using all out of his 256meg ram) but it did get the job done at the highest brightness. I think its just this actual screen is Screaming for POWER... does any one except zer0nine actually achieves this on daily basis?

I mean to get usage to something usefull i had to turn down alot of background options like pushes to manual, brightness to very low ETC... and still need to charge it, any screen usage kills battery by 30%...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sunshines4u:
Yeah I came from iPhone 3g also and that 3 year old device can last longer than my note.

I'm using stock ROM and been using cpuspy to monitor if my device gets deep sleep but sometime it does and sometimes it doesn't. It's so random and confusing to figure out what's disturbing its deep sleep.

My usages haven't changed much since I switched phone so each time my phone doesn't last before I get home, it feels like I went backwards instead of upgrading my phone.

Sorry to rant in here but this experience is really making me regret switching....

Ha! There goes 12 percent for reading and replying to this thread....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] enside0ut:
i agree, we just have to find the right combination of settings and figure out which apps to stay away from. mine is on latest saurom with a dark theme and wallpaper. i dont use fb or any other social networking but have been using latitude . tried with and without juice defender ultimate and also gave the paid version of green power a shot and get the same results as without them, which is just over three hours on average screen on time and 12-16 standby. anyone have some good settings for CPU tuner, system tuner, rom toolbox or any of the other super tools that can affect the performance/stamina of our device ? or am i already just about where it should be?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] EvoXOhio:
If you charge from a USB based power source like a car charger or plugged into a computer, it will not go into deep sleep. This is a known bug. If you have to charge from non-AC wall power then just reboot when you unplug it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] littlewierdo:
I have noticed something interesting, the phone isnt completely charging when Android is running. It 'says' 100% charged but it isnt.

I started noticing that at the end of my work night, I was coming home with less and less battery left, my usage not changing all that much...

Last night, I had the phone plugged in at 100% charge (it was plugged in all day), I unplugged from the charger and powered the phone down (so it was off), plugged in the charger and it took nearly an hour - for sure over 45 minutes for the phone to get the last little wedge of the battery icon in the middle of the screen to fill (so when you push a volume button - either up or down, it is fully charged when there is a '100%' displayed in white inside of the battery icon).

[Legend General] repairsuniverse:
Does the outer touch screen of your HTC Legend have been cracked or damaged? This written repair guide will walk you through all the steps required to disassemble your HTC Legend quickly and safely.

This guide will help you to install the following HTC Legend parts:

HTC Legend Touch Screen Digitizer Glass Replacement

Tools Required:

Safe Open Pry Tool

T6 Torx Screwdriver

Adhesive Strips (For Touch Screen Digitizer)

Hot Air Gun / Hair Dryer

HTC Legend Take Apart Repair Guide:

The first step will be to pry up the back-bottom cover using safe open pry tool. Remove the battery and the sim card from the phone.

You will now need to unscrew five (4) screws using the T6 screwdriver located in figure 1.

Figure 1​

Pry up the back-top cover using safe open pry tool. Remove the two (2) screws using the T6 screwdriver located at the top of the phone.

​

Figure 2

Now you can carefully pry the screen assembly and motherboard from the back housing. It may take some time to work the assembly out of place.

Once the screen assembly and motherboard have been removed, remove the 2 torx T6 screws located in figure 3. You can now remove the lower assembly.

Remove the plastic housing on the back side of the assembly by using a safe open pry tool to carefully unclip the housing.

Figure 3​

The motherboard will now be exposed. Use a safe open pry tool to release the 3 connectors located on the motherboard. If the connection is a "jaw" connector, simply lift the lip and carefully slide out the cable.

Once the screen is completely released, you can take it out of the assembly.

Figure 4​

You can now heat the front of the screen assembly to warm the adhesive. Use a heat gun or hair dryer on a medium setting for about 45 seconds, using quick movements around the outside edges.

Use a safe open pry tool to pry between the touch screen digitizer and front frame, carefully releasing it from the housing. Reheat if necessary.

Carefully release the touch screen flex cable from the back of the screen assembly and feed it through the housing to fully remove the digitizer.

Simply replace the damaged parts with the new ones and reverse the order to put your phone back together again.

Hi guys, I've successfully replace touchscreen on my legend, but now it's wierd in the top part of screen.

is there a way to calibrate it?Thanks.

Best regards.
[Legend General] repairsuniverse:
You can't and shouldn't need to calibrate the screen. If its not responding correctly / fully check over the connections and install. If its still not working make sure there was no damage caused to the flex cable of the screen.
[Legend General] kelvinyap9:
Thanks so much for drawings! It's very clear :)

I was thinking of repairing the USB port on my HTC Legend. I think one or two of the 4 pins for USB have come loose, so I was considering soldering them back on again.

Your guide, does it allow me to access the USB ports connections?

Cheers :)
[Legend General] repairsuniverse:
Glad you like the guide.

Yes, you'll need to open the phone up down to the motherboard to have access to the USB port.
[Legend General] devstar:
hi there when i was taking my phone to bits to change the lcd i broke wee black cable wi the zif connectors on it can you tell me can i buy an new one or can it be repaired i tried bearing a bit of the wire and putting the connector back on but when i put the phone toghether everything work except i get no signal :(

[Legend General] repairsuniverse:
Unfortunately, it sounds like you may need to replace the part.
[Legend General] TheJohnDunster:
Hey,

I have lots of dust under the screen of my legend.

Is there any way of removing this?

Thanks,

TheJohnDunster
[Legend General] repairsuniverse:
Yes, follow the instructions in the guide that started this thread, which will show how to open up your device. Complete the steps in order to remove the touch screen (outer glass), and then clean out the dust. However, make sure you have the necessary tools for the repair (listed at beginning of the guide). Best of luck!
[Legend General] VaktBleppe:
I did this on my phone today, because the digitizer was broken, the new screen works fine but the USB does not work, the computer says it's a unknown device, does not matter if i'm in android or fastboot mode and the SD card does not work either the phone does not see the card. Any ideas what can have happend?

Found a thread about fixing usb/sd error but for that i need to have "terminal emulator" but i did remove that from the phone long time ago, and since the sd dont work i cant download a APK either and for some reason Play store is also gone after screen change and the clock was reset, Im on CM 7.2

NOTICE: 8/28/12

Sorry to inform you guys but as of right now, as you can tell, I just don't have the time to keep this updated. The new version is a big jump from before and with working 11 hours a day and my personal life, this project would require more time than I wish I had.

It was great keeping this going for you guys and I appreciate all the support I got from you all. Didn't think it would have grown to this extent. Who knows, things could change and give me the opportunity to kick start this project again. But for now, I just don't have any time.

Once again thanks for the support!

Anyway it's quite annoying that I couldn't enable the GPU rendering, I feel all other apps (especially facebook) run smoother with this enabled.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] r3act:
Are you on stock 4.0-> with Pete's 03_29 build you are since it uses the stock 4.0.4 kernel!!!

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] mcbyte_it:
I don't really understand all the fuss about this instagram.

In these days everybody is going after high megapixel camera, super fast snapshot, etc etc and this app makes low resolution pictures with effects that makes them look old, what's the fun in that?

What comes to my mind is that iOS users are so much behind in technology (with their 3.5" displays and limited OS) that they find color pictures that seem 30 years old that is instantly uploaded to a website a HUGE step for mankind, and that's why they don't want us, Android user, to join them :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Destke:
I'm going to give it a try. We'll see what all the fuz is all about.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Chiraag_G:
My 2 pennies...

So, I'm on a SGS II with 2.3.5 still.

I installed and joined up pretty much an hour or so after it hitting the market.

Until this, I have been using the following (in order of frequency at first then whatever):

Little Photo

Camera 360 (though of late this has been creeping up the list even more now as it is quickly becoming more interesting to use than Little Photo)

Paper Camera

Photofunia

Photo A-F, PhotoGrid and a load more.

I don't know why I don't have Pixlr-o-matic; I certainly looked into it but either I removed it, or I never installed it, put off by something or another.

Anyhoo, Instagram's rapid post-to-social aspects are really all it's got going for it over, say, Camera 360, which I find is a much more powerful tool for applying effects on the fly, including tilt shift, "magic" colour, HDR, Retro, Lomo, and some fun ones like Big Head.

Little Photo is great when you have even more time and want to play with layering multiple effects, tweaking how much you apply them, doing manual bokeh etc - really good for that actually, but sharing on both of these isn't quite so quick.

Instagram is for when you want to share normal, or filtered, images via various social networks very quickly. Not much customisation in terms of effects beyond choosing them and a frame, but I guess what it does, it does well.

I am sure I will use it for sharing but more often than not, I don't want to share to more than one social network.

In any case, I find my default camera serves a very good purpose for sharing.

I take the picture, and it instantly uploads to my favourite social network, G+.

Might I also add that Camera360's pics end up in the default camera folder so they get uploaded also? It's smarter to do it this way, and, to be honest, just remembering that little gem put Camera360 higher up in the list.

I have three photography related icons in my left dock bar (Go Launcher EX):

Camera (Gesture Swipe = Camera360)

Gallery (Gesture Swipe = Instagram)

Photography folder (Gesture Swipe = Paper Camera).

I actually go into the photography folder if I want to use Little Photo as I only use it when I have a little more time ;)

Dammit I can ramble!

If for nothing else, it's awesome to spite the iDiots. :D I mean, have you guys seen this yet? :D

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Chiraag_G:
Haha, mainly the people who are complaining are ignorant and would prefer to be in their one-brain-cell gated community.

A number of iPhone users are perfectly okay with it.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Kerosine:
Agreed.

Agreed mate. I was about to delete it but changed my mind. If it pisses them off so much, I'll keep it and if I come across a broken iPhone after a fall from 10 centimetres, I'll take an Instagram picture of it and post it online! :)

Seriously, these douchebags think the world belongs to them, let's show them it's not the case.

Just imagine if Android users were to snub the notifications' dropdown menu cause now it's on an iPhone as well...pff... morons.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Stakoman:
I love this app..at first i was like...mehh its just hype, but then i started to upload some pics and see other users gallery and i like the way its organized hehe

follow me if you want :) tiago_pestana
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Kerosine:
What's your take on CameraZOOM-FX? I find it's got a nice suite of features. I vaguely remember using Camera360 and dropping it after a while at the expense of CZFX.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] aluvn:
Totally disappointed with the lack of filters. Now I know why all these instagramed pic looks exactly the same. Try pixlr-o-matic, its filters are amazing.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] fergie716:
There's probably other camera apps that take better pictures with more camera effects features but instagram is great for the social media aspect. If you don't have a lot of friends who use instagram than yea it'll probably be boring. I think it's pretty cool, still needs some work but a decent start for the Android version
