[HTC Droid DNA] WizeGuyDezignz:
With my GS3, I would range anywhere between 18-30 hours with 4+ hours of screen time. That was on ICS or JB. I was rooted with custom ROM's, but I didn't do anything special other than that. A lot of it was with the stock kernels.

I'm only on my 3rd full day with the DNA and I'm keeping a very close eye on battery life. I want to make sure I'm at least getting close to my GS3 otherwise it might not be a worthy move for me after all. So far it has been doing decent but I haven't been able to have a normal usage day yet. Today would be my first normal usage day.

If the battery holds up, I like the DNA more than the GS3, so I would keep it. If the battery doesn't hold up, I'm going to consider the Note 2.
[HTC Droid DNA] intruda119:
I'm on my first full work day. Pretty confident that ill make to the end of the day.

Only issue is that I had to change my habits a little. Stock vs stock with gs3 is clear winner as far as anything media related to battery.

By no means is it horrible.
[HTC Droid DNA] xentheosx:
Coming from the Droid X... I am another extremely satisfied customer.
[HTC Droid DNA] Cdoan34:
Coming from a Gnex, the DNA has amazing battery life. I get about 3-4 hours screen on. All on 4g, maybe 30 mins of a game and 2 hours of youtube while the rest is on facebook instagram and texting.
[HTC Droid DNA] WizeGuyDezignz:
Do you guys leave all of your GPS location services off until you need them? I have them all on right now and will shut them off if it helps battery.

Am I interpreting your picture right? You got 26 hours of battery life so far, and you have 66 percent left? Wow. Was it charged at all?
[HTC Droid DNA] FlipMarc:
Actually, it's 26hrs 52mins with 34% left on the battery. No it wasn't charged. That's the amount of time it's been running on battery.

I switched from a galaxy nexus LTE. The DNA blows it away. I get 12 hrs with ease when the nexus would be dead in 4 hrs with ext battery. I stream from Google music over LTE, and listen to podcasts 6hrs a day. Battery life is awesome. Charge it at night.

AMAZING BATTERY w/o WIFI

I was getting 16+ hours with wifi on aside from being annoyed with alerts it was killing the battery. I am now am getting 24 hours with WIFI off and pretty good use tracking with Strava, 1-2 hours screen on. (3% per hour drain with screen off = 30 hours)

I only charge at night now on my swanky wireless LG charger bedside with a nice clock keeping the screen on all night. I have strong 4G and unlimited data at home and work so I simply leave wifi off and am LOVING it. I rarely turn on wifi now. YMMV
[HTC Droid DNA] earthrocker:
if you love the GS3 so much, sell the DNA and go back to it, period.

I get the same and marginally better battery out of the DNA as my GS3. period. if you don't, that's your problem.
[HTC Droid DNA] xShin:
Not sure what you're doing to get those results, but my stock DNA is easily out-lasting my brother's rooted SIII, as well as my mother-in-law's stock SIII. Plus, I use my phone more extensively than both of them.. so yeah. I'm not saying my results alone are definitive, but when several people have reported better battery life with the DNA than with the SIII, I'd say it's pretty conclusive that the DNA's battery life is better than that of the SIII.
[HTC Droid DNA] Symbiotx:
Same story here. I was worried because I initially wanted a phone that could hold a charge after my Droid x was always dying, but I gave it a chance because I really liked the phone, and I am thrilled about how long it lasts. This thing holds up all day through everything I would normally do without charging it in the car. Battery life is a non-issue for me with this phone.
[HTC Droid DNA] Thrillhouse847:
I keep finding myself posting this but here goes. Keep in mind this is almost entirely on wifi. Still pretty impressive I'd say. And this was not a fluke, I was able to consistently pull this kind of battery life.

I noticed This happening for the past few weeks now.

Sometimes when I go to sleep, I don't turn the wifi off. But when I do, it seems that while I'm sleeping, the wifi turns on by itself.

The screen shots above shows that at the first few hours, the wifi was on, and so was Facebook!

I also noticed in the past that when I turn my wifi off,. Sometimes it will just suddenly turns on.

Can an app be doing this? I have auto-sync activated. Can that be the reason why my wifi just suddenly turns on? Cause on the graph, only the first few hours consumed 30% of my battery. Which is a big deal for me. Cause I don't want my phone to just decide for itself whether it will need data or not. I know it's a smartphone but there has got to be a limit how smart it is. Hehehe.
[General Questions and Answers] burst24:
Probably autosync is the cause. There's no decent app as far as i know to open wifi or mobile data by itself.

Try to disable it and check it out.

I've been learning to use APK Multi-Tool and have made some interesting mods. (great fun!) most recently I've been attempting to change the sent 2.1 clock in one of the shins to look like the 4.0 clock. I have found the PNG Image and resized it but when I flash it looks slightly weird but mostly unchanged. Is there another edit I need to find inside the skin apk or do I need to edit rosie?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strapped365:
Have you checked in the clockwidget.apk? I've never done a Sense 2.1 clock so its a guess. Sense 3 is in fusion though
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chad The Pathfinder:
Thanks. I'll check that out. I changed the numbers "ok" I just can't change the base

Edit: Strapped, where were the mods you made to the apk you gave me for the Energy ROM? I guess I should decompile it and look myself. ;) I guess I'm getting lazy.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strapped365:
Those was edits done to a Sense 3.0 default shared.m10 file compiled into the skin for Sense 3.5, but I think Sense 2.1 is different. Its always worth a shot to decompile a skin though

Look up unrevoked and use the one that says "unrevoked forever", then verify that your radio version is listed on there and get root using that
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortydoggg:
That's not going to work without becoming complicated. Unrevoked-forever only works on the radios that came with either Froyo or Eclair (It was patched when Gingerbread was released), which means that the whole operating system would have to be downgraded because the phone is not S-OFF to flash radios. There is no tool to S-OFF Hboot 2.18 directly.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] hansip87:
Hi there,

I, to this day, still have no idea about all of the available bootloaders here on razr forum, specifically a safestrap and the BMM. Could anybody explain some of my question below?

1. What's the main difference? Any reason to choose one more than another?

2. Before now, i use BMM 0.2.7 and sometimes it bootloops on me, then i have to clear dalvik and caches to fix this. Any explanation why?

3. Which is safer to use? I mean the one that will less likely brick my device.

Thank you for any answer.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] xpsychox:
I'll do the best I can.. I can't answer all the questions.. But.. As far as differences.. A few that I no of.. 1. Some ROMS call for different ones.. Like I'm use inf eclipse and it says to use safe strap.. What I suggest is read the directions to the ROMs.. Glad if I helped sorry if I didn't..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Olao99:
None of them are bootloaders :(

They are a bypass of the bootloader because it is locked by Motorola.

Safestrap and BMM provide a way to boot custom roms after the original bootloader.

Both are safe, however BMM tends to have less "safety valves" compared to Safestrap, and these are what prevent you from bricking your device.

However the one that you should use is Safestrap.

BMM was discontinued some weeks ago, while Safestrap is still in development.

Most ROMS you'll find here, and in where the main development for our RAZR is: droidrzr.com , Will only work with Safestrap....

Unless you want MIUI, you got to stick with Safestrap.

PD: The thing about the bootloops is not normal for BMM recovery. Did you install some custom ROM?
