Sorry if this has been covered before - quick reply as I'm at work.

I noticed a HUGE drain when I used the built in email client with my work Exchange email and on PUSH. I swapped back to the beta Enhanced Email (note: only beta or dev provided APK will work on JB due to glitch in Google code) and battery drain went right down. Partial Wakelocks and other battery info from BetterBatterY Stats, all showed the built in email client hitting heavy.

No screen shot, bt 4h 36 min on battery 86% left. 39 mins screen on time, which accounts for 67% of use.

Odd - I found Juice Defender not doing that much with me. Maybe I'll give it another shot - were you using the free version?
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
Wow what are you using your phone for and what kind of screen on time are you getting? I've only ever pushed mine to a day and a half before hitting single digits

Screen time is around 5hr. Its normal use, some phone calls, SMS, whatsapp, browse, some games, only use wifi, rarely 2-3g, and phone set to 2g only.

Juice defender disable sync, only with connection, it should connect every 15min, at night disable wifi.

Here's mine, including a graph from the Battery Monitor app.
[RAZR i General] SharpnShiny:
Rebooting would not clear the app list in battery stats. If you used the browser, Facebook, Twitter and Tapatalk apps - then they appear. Even if you connect the device to a laptop (which charges) so you can transfer files etc. when you disconnect, the app list and battery stats are not refreshed, they remain listed. I just tested this right now on my phone. Essentially, I suspect, with those amazing stats, maybe the phone sat on a table or in a pocket for 2 days.
[RAZR i General] Phill_UK:
Essentially, your suspicion is wrong.

1) Why would I doctor my stats?

2) How do you account for my 7 hours screen time, if the phone was sitting idle for 2 days?

Originally I thought the missing apps from my list was due to me rebooting the phone, but I was wrong because the same has happened again today. Below are my stats for now, and you'll see that many of the apps I've used over the last 24 hours are missing from the list again... and I haven't rebooted my phone for days!

I have no idea why my app list is so sparse, but it's certainly not due to me not using any, or the phone sitting idle!

Have you got Google Now enabled? I've found that the battery used by Google Now seems to vary quite a bit depending upon my movements.

If I stay in one location (i.e. work at home) for a couple of days, battery life is OK, if I get the train to work, etc. it seems to drain more battery.

In a moderate use scenario, I struggle to get 2 days with Google Now enabled, whereas before I could get 3 days in the same situation. I'm not finding it very useful so will disable it and see how things go over the next week.
[RAZR i General] L7iharsha:

I've been told by a good engineer that this phone achieves a good battery life due to some factors:

1) It runs some x86 architecture and it is much better and more efficient. He said that the more x86 it runs the more efficient it gets.

2) The battery rated at 2000mah is not BIG but it is not small, so it does have a good backup battery-wise.

3) the one i dont really believe> he says that as the intel runs at 2ghz, and it is simply better than any other cpu out there for smartphones (not faster but, better) it completes the tasks quite fast, he STATES that it completes single core tasks 40% than GS3 and dual core tasks 5% slower than GS3 and android does mainly single core tasks, and as long as the cpu rests at 600mhz, it doesnt eat up battery at 2000Mhz

would you say this is true or just pure s**t?
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
Seems believable to me, although I'm running Omar's kennel that underclocks the processor and I still don't see above six hours screen on time. Not complaining though, it easily lasts me two days.
[RAZR i General] nihues:
New record here. Didn't use much, mostly phone, sms, whatsapp, gmail, but if i use more, the time stays around 2d 20h generally.

Here are my stats.

Wifi turned on at home and work and 2G only enabled while commuting. Smart action enabled that disables wifi, mobile data, GPS and bluetooth between 11:00pm and 5:30am. Regular use, whatsapp, phone, sms, taking pictures, playing games, browsing, checking gmail, etc.

Also, Google Now is disabled and Viber is not installed (since these two seem to be two battery killers).

edit: added browsing and checking gmail on second paragraph and added third paragraph.
[RAZR i General] latinring1234:
So do you think Razr I achieves a better battery life than Razr M ?
[RAZR i General] adddaamo:
Definitely Razr I has hot better battery life than Razr M. That's the main advantage - I've got crazy small battery consumption during night, with full synchronization enabled on wifi - about 1% per night. I think this is only Android phone that can deliver two weeks on standby - with wifi and updates and synchronization in background!

The biggest battery consumption is screen - so if you treat your phone as a portable game console, or movie player battery will be drain quite quickly. I've got about 6 to 8 hours with screen on before i need to plug it into charger.

Performance is also better on Razr I (with one exception). Intel processor is actually one core atom that delivers performance of two core ARM A9 1.6GHz, so it means that running single threaded process will be twice as fast as on Razr M. Most apps are single threaded.

One exception that I mentioned before is ARM emulation - if developer don't optimize or even compile his app to x86 architecture than Razr I need to emulate ARM processor - which is slow and battery hungry process (or just fails).

Any idea guys why my Battery draining fastly.when I'm on ICS I get good battery but after jb it's worst .
[RAZR i General] wozn:

really happy with the battery life the razr I gives. For comparing thats around 100mins of 3G talk time, work phone so rings a fair bit most days.
[RAZR i General] ipopox:
What do you think on JB?, not so good right?

Hi guys,

55% Remaining after 9Hours

Screen 1H40Min

I just installed via RSD Lite Brazilian JB as far as I received the phones, so I dont have idea the performance with ICS

The Wifi is on 7h of the total time (9h) (, in that thime the mobile data was OFF, since I discovered that I really save battery with that, I have a rule with the App MacroDroid, Smart Actions doesnt give that option.

BT is off.

Google Now OFF

Sync On.

GPS OFF

I dont have Viber, just WhastApp and LightFlow Pro

Also I hace the Email configured with Exchange with push option.

Any help ti improove it???

Thanks!!!!!
[RAZR i General] ipopox:
I belive that the main difference between us is something related with our carriers, My mobile signal is Medium ( 4 from 1 to 6, use GSMBattery to know that) the 85% of time..., but maybe something related with how our carriers hanlde the signal.

I dont know, but I have my XT890 with Brazilian Stock JB (I used RSD Lite and I performed a Wipe), It is not rooted, with 80% of the time using wifi and No mobile data, NO BT, NO GPS, No Viber, NO Google Now, just a couple of app running as MacroDorid, WifiMatic, Whastapp, LightFlow Pro and Smart actions...... and My battery give me 20H.

With NO Wifi and 3G, I have a 5% or 6% per hour with almost no use...., with No Mobile data and Wifi On, 3,5% per hour.....

So...., I belive that the issue it is not in the phone, since some guys with the same Firmware has better life, MUCH BETTER!!!!

Has any sense what I am saying?
[RAZR i General] Omar-Avelar:
Have you disabled Fast Dormancy on the phone? (Search the threads) Or put one of the custom ROM's? I would recomend the latter. :good:
[RAZR i General] ipopox:
Hi Omar, thanks for your quick reply, I was reading and reading and reading and I dint find how to disable Fast Dormancy....

Also I am trying to find some good tutorial to downgrade from JB to ICS (remember that I installed JB via RSD and my phone is not rooted)

Let me say THANK YOU for all the input and feedback that you provide to thsi forum!!, I read a lot of post from you :)
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
It is definitely a carrier signal issue. Even with fast dormancy disabled with data and wifi off, I'll drop about seven percent in an hour. I think it's a matter how good your signal is
[RAZR i General] ipopox:
Buddy, I just STOP the Motocare process and I improove my battery!!! muuch better, 15H and I still have 50%, with the half of the day with Data Mobile ON and the other half of the day with wifi ON and DATA mobile off.

Buddy, Stop that process!!!!, Kill the battery!!, I could could not unistall that app since I am not root, I have JB and I dont know how to root it since I need to unlock the bootloader....

Hi I'm wondering how to completely wipe my device from any user data that could have been stored from use, I'm wondering if duke and nuke method would be safe or does anyone know of any other way to perform a full wipe like dariks boot and nuke? I'm wanting to sell my device but want it as clean as possible???
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cilraaz:
Boot into bootloader

fastboot erase userdata
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Garner:
I know of that but will it do a deep clean like Dban so nothing can be recovered whatsoever. I'm just worried that someone could recover my private work files that I have deleted etc
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Garner:
Tried that method still finding stuff im just worried thats all
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cilraaz:
You could always do something like the following:

dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.0/by-name/userdata

via an ADB shell. That would overwrite whatever is in the userdata with random bits, making previous data unrecoverable. I'd suggest fastboot flashing a default userdata image afterward, as I'm not sure what putting complete gibberish on the partition would do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Garner:
Thanks i did it again, locked my bootloader then unlocked it then i did the fastboot erase user data procedure. and now just one item shows up that im not bothered about :victory: Booted it up with Cyan10 and now it seems like lightening really alot faster! Thanks once again! :laugh:

Hi everybody.

I have never made use of the MHL port on my phone as I don't own any HDMI compatible LCD/TV. Just wondering if I can use it with my old TV by following an unusual route i.e., Phone > MHL > HDMI > A/V > TV. Is it possible? Has anyone tried it? And are the required cables/converters available in the markets?

looking for missing apps that AT&T thought would be a good idea to leave off our phones.

I to, have always liked the flashlight and FM radio and got them to work just by signing them and installing them as user apps. So far they have survived a couple of full reboots, and a simulated battery pulls.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mikereidis:
HTC changed their FM audio methods in JB. My FM app supports that.

Perhaps an HTC FM app from a JB ROM will work, whether for Rogers or Euro OneX(L) or the app from HTC One or whatever.

I think it needs to be from an HTC phone using WCN3660 FM/combo chip (and Qualcomm S4+ SOC). An HTC app for Broadcom or TI combo chips won't work for the FM control function.
[HTC Sensation] kosstheory:
I would have posted this in the Sensation Android development area, but I don't have sufficient privileges to do so.

I no longer have WiFi.

I am using the 4.1.2 CM Kang, and I originally had WiFi working with that ROM, but it stopped working about a weeks ago, and I can't get it to come back.

If I watch the Wifi on/off toggle, I can see it blink white for a split second then return to grayed out about once every 5-10 seconds.

I've checked the WiFi settings, and the only thing that looks peculiar is that the region code under Advanced says "Europe," but when I try to change that, it just reverts.

I have tried a factory data reset,re-flash of the ROM, and installing newer versions of the ROM with no luck.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
[HTC Sensation] kosstheory:
WiFi will not turn on

I tried to install WiFix Manager, and I followed the directions closely, but WiFi still will not turn on.

The country code always reverts back to Europe in the Advanced WiFi Settings.

I'm on T-Mobile US, running AOKP aokp_pyramid_unofficial_Oct-19-12.zip; a JB ROM; 4.1.2

I previously tried the CM10 Kang for the HTC Sensation, but switched ROMs to make sure that it wasn't issue with the ROM.

To be clear, my problem is not that the WiFi radio never locks to a particular signal, it's that the WiFi radio won't even turn on.

When I go to WiFi settings it just says, "Turning on WiFi...," and never actually turns on.

My best guess was that it had something to do with the WiFi country code, but that's really just a stab in the dark; open to suggestions.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] kosstheory:
bump

Surely, there's someone out there that can help?
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
In order of easiest and quickest to longest time it will take to do each one...

Install the latest version of the ROM (10/23) overtop of your existing rom (5 minutes)

If that doesn't work...

Do a full wipe and install a fresh copy of the latest version. (15 minutes, with Nandroid backup)

If that doesn't work...

Format your SD card (save all the contents to your computer first) (40 minutes between copying every to the computer and back to the SD card)

NON ROM RELATED OPTION IF YOU ARE S-OFF

Reinstall your firmware as it's possible something got messed up. You will have to boot to recovery after this and wipe cache and dalvik or you will get bootloops. (5 minutes, but a little more involved)

My guess is that the full wipe and fresh install is the most likely to work the first time.
[HTC Sensation] kosstheory:
is there a sensation specific guide for this procedure?
[HTC Sensation] kosstheory:
Still perplexed

How do I know which kernel and radio combination should work best with my ROM. I switched out to AOKP to see if that was the problem, and I believe I'm using the 3.33 Kernel, but I don't know how to check to make sure it installed correctly.
[HTC Sensation] desirez_pete:
Had the same problem as you but a full wipe and reflash would bring it back. Seems to be a CM10 problem since it happens with Bruce's and Paranoid roms. Try a Sense rom and see if wifi works.

Even though editing db file doesn't work. Actually it changes the country code. I guess the ROM changes it during booting. Because while it boots you can see that the wifi is connecting first then goes off. I have tried several roms. DOnno what the problem is. probably JB both on cm10 and aokp

Someone can give me the link of the gallery or tell me what i can try please?

Thanks for read :)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] sjgore:
Well if you'd read the dedicated thread for the Note 2 camera and gallery, you'd know that you can download the file from that thread and delete the camera file inside the zip before flashing, which will give you just the Note 2 gallery.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] coolhof:
Note 2 Gallery and Camera app.zip

Take "SecGallery2.apk" from "Note 2 Gallery and Camera app.zip\system\app".

Push SecGallery2.apk to system/app and delete the SecGallery2.odex (back up your old SecGallery2.apk plus .odex)

Then from app control:

1. Clear Gallery data

2. Clear Media Storage data

Restart your phone.

Wipe chace and wipe-dalvik

Finish.
