I have been reading of a lot of threads about how to save battery life..

here's what I done:

1. gps off

2. auto kill w/ advanced task killer

3. screen brightness at low

4. sleep screen after 15 seconds

I have got my desire for a few months and battery life has been bugging me. I understand that modern big touchscreen will drain the battery as compared to normal phones. Using a custom rooted rom atm.

I unplugged the phone at 12:00 with data on (push, auto-sync, etc), when i woke up at 7:00, I'm getting 73% of battery life. Charged it to full again and unplugged it at 8:30. My phone the phone shutdown by itself at 21:30. It's a little bit more than 13 hours of battery.

Is it me or everyone else is getting the same number? I just installed setcpu and see how it goes.. please tell me if there's any other way to preserve more battery!
[Desire General] missbizzylizzy:
I think it partly depends on which ROM you are using. I am currently using a new ROM (which I LOVE) but I've noticed that my battery life has decreased quite a bit. It can be kind of a trade off. I love the ROM so much that I'm not going to change it but it works ok for me because most of the time, I am somewhere where I can charge my phone if necessary.:)

Just found this thread which might help. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=755903&highlight=battery+usage I'm going to try it and see if it helps.

..overall the battery lifetime is not as good as we would like it - but its a general smart phone problem - anyway I charge my device once per day...who cares?
[Desire General] 10w40:
- ROM? Rooted Official Taiwan froyo rom httx://bit.ly/bSUVWV

- Display on time? sorry, how can i find this?

- Cell/WiFi on time? no wifi, cell/data apn on all the time

- Chrome2Phone (or similar) running? Android Notifier

- Any battery widgets running? None

- Any social networking apps/widgets running? 1. Friend stream (facebook and twitter) 2. Extended controls 3. HTC Notepad

Do you think it might be android notifier? it's set to send every event..

What's the average battery life with cellular data on?
[Desire General] h3llb3nd4:
My battery life is also quite shocking, also lasts for approximatly 13 hours under normal use, but if it is in standby then I'd say it lasts for 20 hours.

under normal use:

no 3/2g mode, just wifi

leedroid 2.2a

occasional games

occasional call (like 1 in 10 hours)

1~2 messages

btw you can find display on time in 設定->關於手機->電池->喚醒時間

Do a full typical usage discharge from full to near off and see what the battery stats in that section read for Display, Cell, Phone idle and anything other (tap each one for hours and percentage).

[Desire General] th3:
I'm not familiar with the app but I am with FB and such and their widgets. Any app/widget polling at high frequencies like per second or per minute produces a high additional average drain which cuts runtimes, especially standby efficiency. That includes monitoring apps.

Do you have the battery widget chosen in Extended Controls, or the auto-brightness?

I can't say because supposedly, mine is well above average. It depends critically on usage and setup, too. 24-42hours with 5-9h display on and WiFi/2G always on is quite the norm on mine. Put to sleep (standby), it doesn't drop 1% until 6-9 hours. There's many many threads every week about this now. And I have many updating widgets and auto syncs running, just nothing to do with social networking since I've completely deleted from my phone.

Sorta new to the forum.

Just got me a HTC Desire. Rooted running CM6.0.2

If i baby it, i get maybe 6am-2pm. Heavy use, its done before noon. Ouch

Standby is ok, i left it off the charger last night and I lost 25% over 10.5hrs.

Ive got 1 twitter app on a 5min refresh. Weather is on 1hr. Screeen is down around 15% brightness. setcpu is on 245min, 998max, scaling on demand an a screen off profile of 245.

I have no idea what more I can do to get more then half a day out of it without just not using it lol.

Im pretty new to Android and all this rooting/rom stuff so maybe Ive got something screwy. I also tried a second battery from a friend, no change.
[Desire General] blunted09:
set that friends widget to longer than 5 mins and the weather widget to every 3 or 6 hours. i bet you that will get you alot more time.

[Windows Phone 7 General] plastix:
One of my biggest concerns about WP7 at the moment is that I recently switched to Ubuntu, which I am enjoying very much, and don't want my choice of OS dictated by my phone.

I am aware that Zune software is not available for Linux, but would it be foolish to be optimistic since they have officially announced Zune for Mac?

Or will we need to rely on a Third-party solution, and if so, anyone know if one is being developed?
[Windows Phone 7 General] at45:
Maybe not foolish, but probably not realistic. The only Linux development which Microsoft has done so far which I can think of is Silverlight. Maybe they will do a WP7 sync solution too, but I doubt that'll be any time soon.

I'm looking out for a SyncML client as it seems the most realistic option, though I'd prefer a port of Birdiesync. There is a Linux ActiveSync project called SynCE which may be worth keeping an eye on for new developments, though I'm not sure ActiveSync is even used in WP7.
[Android Apps and Games] alex1241-2:
Hi all,

We are developing free application for Android 2.1 (or more) named Progress Succes.

Short description:

This application can help you be successful! Add task and every day mark it as done or not. And a few days you can see the results! Simple and easy motivation tool for Time Management which can help to you achieve your goals.

For those who do not know about motivation tool in Time Management.

Consider you have a goal - learn Spanish. So you choose reading a book in Spanish as a method of learning, but you don't do it every day. Once you haven't enough time, once you lack enery after a long day. So you need something that stimulates you to archive your goal. You need something to visualize your process.

The simpliest resolution is a table which has tasks in its first column and dates in its first line. In a particular cell you put a mark showing did you execute your task or not. So you can track your progress.

How does it work?

You create an activity named "To read 3 pages" in the application. Every day you put a mark about executing this activity. You can put nothing if nothing should be done for the activity. So you report yourself about the work done. In statistic you see how your progress goes.

Current features are:

Add/Edit/Remove/Suspend task;

Change marker state on each day for each task. Three State are available (Done, Fail, Non);

Statistic is available for selected tasks;

Support multilanguage interface;

Help is available;

Nearest future plans:

Notification for some seelcted tasks.

For each task you can choose priority

Select a period for statistic.

Twitter: Progress_Succes Here you can see all news.

Ask questions and write recommendations. Advise your friends.

Start to become successful Today!
[Android Apps and Games] Pickx:
Thanks, I've been looking for something like this for a while.

Currently I don't have an Android device so I cannot test this - sorry. Looking at the screenshots and features, it's pretty basic. As someone who has used this method for achieving goals, you need different types of tasks other than "done/not done". For example:

- How many pushups did I do today? (every day you put the number, and potentially define a set goal for each day. For example you set 50 as the goal and if you get to 50 the number is in green, if you did any pushups it's in black and if you did none you get an X)

- Did I floss both in the morning and before bed? (same task but two places to tick in the same day. Or n number of places to tick)

- I don't want to spend too much money on cigarettes/don't want to spend more than 2 hours on the computer (and you input the number of hours/money spent. For example, set 2 hours as the max amount of hours and if you put a higher number, you get a negative result for that day. Otherwise you get a positive)

None of these tasks are, of course, related to my real life :) )

There are probably more unique use cases I've found, I have to think about it.

Also the UI itself could be prettier IMO.

Good luck.
[Android Apps and Games] Jufis:
Neat! I'll try this one out immediately :)
[Android Apps and Games] alex1241-2:
Thanks for your recommendation! It's really important for us.

About more state of marks: The main idea of application - don't spend a lot of time for using it on day. Only one minute per day! If you done 49 pushups instead of 50 then - FAILE. You goal is not achieved :)

But if you really want to be able to do push-ups 50 times then create task - 20 push-ups. When the result is successful, then create new (or change the previous) task 30 push-ups etc... )) Divide your task ;)
[Android Apps and Games] alex1241-2:
Good luck =)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wallacesh954rr:
so like alot of the other tthreads, i wont bore you with details on how a toddler managed to turn on the screen lock and enter the same code twice and lock me out of my phone, question is, i heard there is software that can "break" thru the passcode, or read the passcode so i can either disable it, or find out what it is,enter it and disable it.

i was told SN-RMS will do it but:a. its carrier only, b. nothing in the product manual mentions anything about this being a feature or ability

will QPST or CDMA workshop work for this? a hard reset is really not an option, since i was a moron and didnt backup my stuff. any suggestions?

TL;DR : What software can get into a phone while the security lock screen is on to either disable lock screen, or read passcode so I can disable it. TIA

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shinodoigt:
Hey guys !

I tried AmonRA recovery a few days ago but I prefer Clockworkmod so I'd like to revert back to it (2.5.0.7 version). I made a few searchs and everyone says to use fastboot for that (fastboot flash recovery). So I installed the last AndroidSDK, ran fastboot command for flashing recovery BUT it says

FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)

So I'm asking : what did i miss ? I heard about SPL, what is that ?

I also tried the method of this link : http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/15/how-to-flash-a-new-recovery-image-if-you-are-already-rooted/ but it says the cmd is not known.

Thanks !
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StuMcBill:
You can only use fastboot flash recovery if you have an "s-off" SPL (alpharev.shadowchild.nl), otherwise you have to use unrEVOked (http://unrevoked.com/#desire)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shinodoigt:
Yea, I just S-Offed my desire, it worked well. But I have tried to use unrevoked several times to revert back to clockwork from AmonRA, it failed every time on Windows & MacOS.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h3llb3nd4:
have you tried downloading Rom manager from Market and flash clockwork from there?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shinodoigt:
I tried yes but It didnt change anything to the recovery. Now i'm s-off, fastboot flash recovery worked, so I guess I'm done here, thanks for your help !

Soooo I had to call tmobile warranty. My touch on the my screen no longer works. But what I find crazy is that for this to be a phone that is not just ALL touch im starting to wonder why even have a keyboard or am i just dumb? I cannot press send on a text if i want to send a message. I cannot even save a number 2 my contacts. With out the touch screen am I just SOL till my new phone comes in the mail? I can make phone calls my opening up the keyboard and using the arrow keys. But the limitations with this phone and no touch screen are ridiculous.

Just wondering am I not able to do NOTHING while my touch screen is out? If anything I want to send text messages and I cannot even do that. Any help? PLEASE ASAP THANKS! CED

But unfortunately, I can't figure out how to actually get the message to send once creating and typing it. Maybe you will have better luck.

Edit: actually you can use front facing buttonto get to start menu then use arrokeys and enter to navigate to (start->settings->personal->buttons), then you can set your ppt button or other button to left softkey and send that way... to get to set the button, use down arrow to get to the button you want,then right arrow once to highlight the "assign a program:" field, hit enter to expand that field, then scroll up or down with arrows to get to the <left softkey> (its at/near the top of the list), then hit enter and "OK" your way out of it. I'm assuming the version of the phone you have has the OK shortcut. You may need to soft reset afterwards, but should be good to go at that point.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cajunflavoredbob:
The shortcuts are the same for his device, but you may have forgotten that the TMo version is unique in that it has no PTT button, no OK button (the enter key works fine to get rid of the shortcut box, however), and the Start button is actually a Home button. you could install tarkim's key remapper and set a hard key to the left soft button, but I haven't used this in a while and it may require some touch input.

Also, I use ZoomBarPlus which makes the zoombar function as a d-pad with up/down, action, and back keys. If you follow the instructions on the thread, you can omit the inbox from the default action and have ZoomBar work with it.

If these don't do it for you, then just wait it out for a couple of days. TMo sends these replacements out very quickly.

[Vibrant General] djhaf:
Somehow I managed to get the AT&T logo to show right when you turn on the phone. It only stays on for a second and then goes to the normal vibrant boot image. I believe this happened when I accidentally installed my cogitative rom on the vibrant because I had it labeled incorrectly.

I reinstalled to the 2.2 that doesn't brick and then back to stock 2.1 and then to xipher's rom... still there. any help would be awesome since this isn't my phone and I would like to give my boss the chance to be able to return his phone to tmobile without having them see the at&t logo during bootup.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
Which ROM did you install? The ROM should replace the bootup (no AT&T) logo. I am not familiar with zipher... does he develop for the Captivate (hence the at&t logo)?

Have you tried to flash the international galaxy bootup zip? It does not have the T-Mobile bootup, but it's not at&t either (just Vibrant > Galaxy S > boot).
[Vibrant General] djhaf:
like i said, i accidentally installed a rom for the captivate and thats why i have the stinking at&t logo on this phone lol

the rom replaced the at&t logo for the most part, but for the very first 2 seconds the phone comes up, you can clearly see the at&t logo.

where can i find this bootup zip?

EDIT: On the plus side I have not seen any develpoment on changing the splash screen for the vibrant. Perhaps this could point someone with more know how than me in the right direction as to what is modified and possibly lead to a fix and/or custom splash screens!

[Windows Phone 7 General] at45:
Really? I liked downloading and keeping CABs.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
Yes you have to use the marketplace. I think the market saves all of your downloads for you.
[Windows Phone 7 General] at45:
Yeah but it's not the same is it?

If something is no longer available for WinMo 6.x, but if you have an old CAB you're ok. This new model takes the power from us and gives it to the vendors. This isn't in my interest at all.
[Windows Phone 7 General] eknutson:
I don't agree, at least in my experience it has been much easier to get my applications back with the MS store than with CABs for several reasons. After I flash a new ROM (analogous to a new phone, etc.):

I simply log in to get my store applications - 1 button push to 'install all'

I get the latest version

I don't forget which CABs I have to install, and don't have to make sure they're all up to date.

It's a trade-off, but it is in your interest.
[Windows Phone 7 General] at45:
I guess that's ok if you trust the apps to remain available.

I don't have to do much work either though after a hard reset or new ROM. I just run Sashimi which configures every part of the phone exactly how I told it to. I know this is a mile from what MS is doing with WP7 and that's not a bad thing.

But I am hopeful that devs will find a way to let us install apps independently of Marketplace. It might be that someone writes a great app that MS doesn't allow onto the marketplace, mightn't it?
[Windows Phone 7 General] imaginarynumber:
I too am not a fan of the fact that MS gets to dictates which software I can and cannot use. Whilst I consider them to be far more liberal than Apple how can I be sure that what is permitted today will be allowed tomorrow.

It is conceivable that something I download today is retrospectively deemed to be in violation of some hitherto non existent rule- this could be the result of a legal ruling or MS regime change.

Nor am I comfortable about the fact that one firm will have the low down on ALL of the software that I buy.

Whilst i can see some advantages to the market place, what happens if I need to hard reset in an area with no internet access? Or if I am abroad?

An advantage of the cab scenario is that I am only reliant on my sd card. I can carry my backups wherever I go and reinstall at no cost and virtually instantly.

Straying off topic, perhaps, the success of yet another o/s orientated market place might have very serious implications for the way that we source software for our main computers...
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
whilst that may be true that it is nice to have cabs you can install yourself, the reason for just 1 market place is the fact that you'll end up with experiences like android where multiple market places exist and carriers are changing the market place so you can't access another. and then it's up to the developer to make it available in all these variations of market places. where as at least with iOS/WP market places, it's a 1 place submission.

you also get stupid conditions as well such as amazon's (future?) android marketplace where no app can be released before them in an update. they must be released all at the same time. how hard is that to co-ordinate?
