[Defy Android Development] bkuu:
man i had this exact same problem when I first updated to 2.2. My battery would only last like 10 hours max before I need to charge. Battery was great when I when I was on 2.1. I thought I did everything I could, but realized I forgot one thing I didn't try that I did on my 2.1. That was SET SCALING. At first I thought I didn't need all of that because of setvsel but I guess it wasn't working right for me. I ran the script provided in one of the threads and now my battery life is AWESOME! 26+ hours and only on 30%. This is what I've always wanted..finally the phone can last more than a day without charging. Of course I have all settings turned down and being on 2G/edge.
[Defy Android Development] priyansh17:
@bkuu---thanks for the advice.....i have downloaded SetVsel from market but am observing the battery backup with my custom made 3g fix....shall do the set scaling post that...
[Defy Android Development] naenee:
I've mainly used wifi, gps off. Light usage only, though several phonecalls. The UK sbf contains blur, but I have used versions without blur in the past and have noticed no real performance differences. Wifi turns off when I turn my screen.
[Defy Android Development] nupi:
Ok so I am using setvsel - could that be the reason? I do not think its a network fix in my case as I am in Singapore (Starhub, GSM 1800, W-CDMA 2100) which is and did not apply any patches for that. Juicedefender only made marginal differences (like 10-20%) and is annoying to say the least... I am messing around with JuicePlotter now to see whether I can figure out where my battery is going.
[Defy Android Development] dlamber7:
Here's an update for you guys :)
[Defy Android Development] nupi:
That does look quite similar to my breakdown, except that mine goes down to 30% in 15 hours... Could it be it a battery calibration thing?
[Defy Android Development] AgentSmith:
The vsel setting seems quite high. With setvsel mine is running at 1 GHz with only 50 vsel. It's stable at 49 even but I always set it 1 higher just in case. I get more or less the same usage here, but I have the wifi on 24/7.
[Defy Android Development] dlamber7:
I haven't messed with the vsel, I just slid the bar over to 1GHz and applied and called it a day. I'll adjust to down to 50 and see how much better I get.
[Defy Android Development] priyansh17:
:(:(:(

disappointment....not a substantial increase in the backup....am now getting 14 hours on full charge earlier it was 10 hours.....:o:o

but the best thing is i am having a marvellous network....voice and data both....i m happy atleast something worked good for me ;););)

if anyone else needs the 3G fix i made for SEA i.e. 900-1800 Mhz...plz flash the attached zip file.....at least it boosted my network....

now will play with SetVsel to see if i can improve the battery...:cool:

CHEERS ALL YOU LOVELY GUYS FOR ADVICE AND SUPPORT :D:D
[Defy Android Development] priyansh17:
i m absoultly jealousssssssss
[Defy Android Development] dlamber7:
I just downloaded setvsel and adjusted some of the settings. I will let this charge run its course and update again after full charge with new settings.
[Defy Android Development] priyansh17:
gr88....i shall wait...
[Defy Android Development] nupi:
I just installed kicked out SmartBar, that seems to have increased the runtime for 10% battery drop quite a bit (even if I had deactivated setvsel). Now I am messing again with setvsel to see what is going on (but I now only use it to set the vsel and exit it after that)
[Defy Android Development] vince89:
This long run of 15 hours with still 72% akku left is only achieved because the display was mostly off (5% of whole consumption). This means very little interaction with the phone. Anybody can achieve that :)

dlamber7 only used his phone for phoning, and not hours of gaming, surfing, music listening.

So the high vsel setting of 74 at 1000 GHz doesn't mean anything, because the CPU will mostly be idling at 300 MHz while phoning or standby.

To improve the setting, use SetVsel with Milestone Overclock (load module) as follows:

Threshold 90%

24 at 300 MHz

34 at 600 MHz

44 at 800 MHz (or 54 at 1000 MHz)
[Defy Android Development] Jt612:
i think the real main differance is you are using edge and 2g where as im using hdspa or whatever its called and 3g
[Defy Android Development] bonethugs:
hi, i'm from spain, do i need to apply the 3g patch or not?
[Defy Android Development] martin.flory:
Well thanks for the info. I think the problem is that the battery manager is not granular enough.

I think it packs all background network activities in "cell standby" and all background app activity in "Phone Idle". I'm pretty sure all my podcasting listening goes to phone idle because i do it for hours a day without it ever showing in the battery manager. I think we need a better measurement of the battery consumption.

Any suggestions?
[Defy Android Development] bkuu:
1d 7H on 40%. Don't think I can last another day without charge..but still good!

if setvsel doesn't help you, go here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=893291

and read the Scaling part, good luck
[Defy Android Development] nupi:
bkuu are you using 3G? If so, what band?
[Defy Android Development] Kribou:
Depending on your local radio frequency, you don't need anything. In France, 3G is working out of the box for me on adlxmod...without any fix.

Bihariel is from spain, maybe he could help you with local settings.

Best,

K
[Defy Android Development] bonethugs:
I think I don't need the fix because my 3G it's working OK, but could I save some battery if I install it?
[Defy Android Development] Kribou:
bonethugs :

I don't think so, since a 3G fix is for a functional fix not an improvement of the battery life. Maybe, it can occur some battery misbehavior when it's on a bad frequency patch...When it works, don't have to try anything else from a battery point of view.
[Defy Android Development] bonethugs:
roger that. thanks Kribou.
[Defy Android Development] bkuu:
nope im on 2G with custom battery saver, my data turns off if phone is idle after 15 mins

thats really nice!

Whats that application u are using that show battery info?
[Defy Android Development] bkuu:
dude thats crazy..you must be set on the lowest mhz and vsel.

I got 44 hours on 10%. Good enough but I would love to have your battery life =D

[Defy Android Development] priyansh17:
man... has Motorola given u a 3000 MAh battery by mistake.....lolzzz.....

;););)
[Defy Android Development] AgentSmith:
Get those battery times too here. Again I use the Chinese 3G fix for my SEA Defy. Wifi is now off since I just got a data package. The radio is set to 2G only (no 3G here yet). Setvsel profiles: 18/300, 30/500, 50/1000, 90% threshold.

After almost 17 hours the battery is at 81%. I regularly receive email, sms and other notifications that I also check of course. Haven't played a game because I want to see how long it takes for the battery to run almost empty with normal use. I estimate somewhere between 80 and 90 hours.
[Defy Android Development] Peglezn:
@naenee

Whats that application u are using that show battery info in notification area?
[Defy Android Development] naenee:
It's called Circular Battery Indicator, I got it from elsewhere on the XDA forums.
[Defy Android Development] izzat001:
@agentsmith what frequency of the fix did you flash? Im from singapore running starhub network!
[Defy Android Development] nupi:
izzat I am on Starhub in SG as well - 2G and 3G work just fine, I don't think we need any fix - my understanding is the fix will make the network work in areas where they use less common frequencies rather than actually fixing battery life (but I may be wrong there)?

Set mine on 2G for today. Lasted almost 6hours with 10% of battery and light use (occasional email and facebook checks) so far. 3G must eat a LOT of power.
[Defy Android Development] izzat001:
@nupi cool much! Im running the 2.51 uk rom. How bout you? The first time i installed a custom rom i forgot to do a nandroid backup. I did a mistake,bricked the phone, and i had to install the uk rom. It drains battery faster. Well i just wiped the battery stats in cwm recovery and im hoping there will be a significant change after a few charge cycles. Do you have a nandroid of our sea rom?
[Defy Android Development] AgentSmith:
850-2100 MHz fixed my reception in Thailand. :)
[Defy Android Development] nupi:
izzat I am using Pays 3.3 (i.e. 3.4.2-145-FIN) on a what is originally European Defy, not a SEA one. I am not sure whether there are any real hardware differences between the two though (AFAIK, most of SEA uses the same bands as Europe for 3G so likely its mainly a software thing). So cannot help with a SEA nandroid, I am afraid.

However, I believe SG uses 1800GSM (not sure about 900GSM) and 2100WCDMA exclusively so no need to use a SEA rom.
[Defy Android Development] priyansh17:
hey...this is definitely a gr8 help...the configurations have helped my battery run atleast 18 hours in one charge that too in performance mode... :)

lets c if gets improved further with time...

i guess i shud now switch back to battery saver mode....
[Defy Android Development] nisamtetreb:
Before I had to recharge the phone twice a day. I only use 3G and I think Google's location function drains battery, since it always sends data according to its agreement question.

Now I'm getting much better battery life after installing Shutupbattery saver. I set it to turn on autosync for 10 minutes every 5 hours.

Maybe it's also the 3.4.3 ROM, I don't know for sure.

edit:

It seems Morzedroid sent a lot of data.
[Defy Android Development] eiben_robert:
You can install Powertutor from the market to track which apps cosumes battery.

As a rule, besides LCD usage, the more 3g sync you have on (email, facebook, twitter, etc) you have, the faster the battery will go. It is not bad, it is just the price we pay for being "always connected". If you are a heavy user with constant sync+ listening to music+some GPS... one day of battery is maximum you can dream on any platform

In my case I had 3g sync on calendar, contacts and Yahoo mail app on push mail. Battery lasted on day (18h) with above config, 20 min phone calls, 1 hour browsing, 1 other usage). Usually I ha some 20-30% at the end of the day so I recharged

I checked with powertutor and to my surprise yahoo mail app used a lot of battery, probably due to push email

I switched to stock email (with sync every hour, no push mail)and now the battery lasts 2 days on the same usage.

[Defy Android Development] kushalc:
hi priyansh17 and the rest of th guys posting here...

I had the same problem... bought my phone from Mumbai india official and updated the OS to froyo.... first the signal wasnt proper and kept going into emergency mode....

So then I installed the SEA (south east asia) baseband fix from this site only... the 900 / 2100 one.... and the battery life was horrible!!!!! 4 - 6 hours tops!!!

I tried everything from downgrading to 2.1 to installing service roms....

Finally I found a solution...i installed the finland 2.2 froyo rom.... phone was smooth but signal issues... and then I saw my own phones box and it had written on it 900 /2100... which is the chinese freqencies.... so I loaded the chinese 900 / 2100 update and now I get 12-14 hours battery life and froyo smoothness... cant be happier.... :D

Hope my nerve wracking experience helps others! :)
[Defy Android Development] shad0wboss:
Let me tell you why battery drain on 2.1 and 2.2 is not different. We are just changing OS which DOESN'T affect the hardware unless overclocked.

Another thing i want to mention is that jboogie's roms are much much faster then other chinese or pays's roms because they run less services which basically uses less battery and to be honest, i had the longest life with jboogie's blurless ginger...
[Defy Android Development] fabianowerner:
for all the people who are having poor battery life, try to use the battery calibration method posted here in the forum, i used it and now i got up to 50hrs of use without charge.
[Defy Android Development] reinsen:
i was working on a trade fair from wednesday til friday (so not using the phone much, few emails/texts/calls per day, little browsing) and the battery lasted roughly 80h to 10%.
[Defy Android Development] priyansh17:
gud to here that...where did you find that chinese fix....i posted one fix for SEA roms...900-1800...

but r u sure 900-2100 works well in India.....it surely will increase the battery life..but the network becomes horrible.......

i would compromise on battery life but cant afford to have broken and frequently failed calls..

also plz check again china has freq of 850-2100....

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vektor67:
It's very strange As it seems to be recognized by the computer but is not found by the AIO 1.13 batch file , I've never used Odin as all I've done is to root and install the SDX Remover. I am able to transfer files to and from my SD Card. I've tried numerous USB Cables including the one which initially allowed me to root, it's the only one of all of my many cables which allows windows to recognize the device and transfer files at usb 2.0 speeds all others either fail recognition or tell me to find a faster port. So I'm at a loss and really, desperately wish to update to froyo. I've tried every tip I've found up to and including shutting down my computer and unplugging it for more than 30 seconds. It's probably something quite simple that I'm overlooking,. I recall having to create a guest account in order to run the batch file and tried that as well. Any tips very much appreciated.

I think I'd like to revert my phone to stock(I think I did a full backup) upgrade to froyo officially than re root or not. I've been way to busy to spend too much time fussing with my phone.

Before I get started, I've flashed 4 different roms onto my phone before along with flashing the radio and installing Magldr, so I can't quite figure out what I'm doing wrong this time around

On my phone right now - MAGLDR 1.13

Radio is SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE CotullaHSPL

I've also got ClockworkMod v1.3 installed

No ROM? My phone isn't booting into anything right now

Alright, I've set my phone into the bootloader, got an active connection and ran the CustomRUU.exe for both radio version 2.15 and 2.14.50 and for some reason, when completed it doesn't seem to have updated my radio. The program finishes and completes with no errors, but when I go to check in the tricolor bootloader, it's still version 2.08?

My ultimate goal is to get this ROM installed http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=917590 CleanDROID v2.51 - Froyo+CM

Now it says to update my radio to at least 2.12 but I don't know why it's not updating? And because of this, I cannot seem to flash the rom. When flashing the ROM, i am approached with this error:

Happen error

Read below for more information

Error Description: Config load failed.

Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (712)

Error Description: CONFIG: file not exist

Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (346)

I have no idea what's going on or what I should do. I don't exactly see what I'm doing wrong or what steps are missing. I've never had so much of a hassle with rom and radio flashing before, it's aggravating me and I must figure it out lol!

Thanks in advance for all the help
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] voncrane:
Firstly despite being on d right path, u've got ur info slightly wrong.

"SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE CotullaHSPL" is ur installed HSPL & NOT ur radio version...Assuming u were still running WInMo, u would have noticed d change in radios u flashed at the bottom of the TMobile boot-up screen...Rest assured there r no major problems here cuz it appears u've already installed d radio...

***You've Performed HSPL and installed MAGLDR 1.13....so Good.

***You also performed a CWM install but the ROM thread u posted is not a CWM build....Meaning it's a DFT build and does't need CWM installed.

Nw here's what u'll do.

>>Since a 2.12.50.xx radio is recommended by the rom dev...Flash it normally (thru bootloader mode) if u haven't already....hweva check out my signature for the radio i'm using and where 2 get it.

>>Reboot ur device into MAGLDR by pressing down the power button when starting up.

>>Scroll down & select USB flasher

>>Connect phone to PC with USB cable (allow it to install drivers if necessary)

>>Then flash the ROM with the supplied DFT flasher (DAF.exe present in the downloaded folder).

>>Sit back n relax.

*** Its that simple.***

P.S. Flashing a dft build will remove ur cwm installation...its a known fact dat both cannot co-exist.

I installed CWm because I was planning on flashing this ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=933951

But I gave up because I kept on getting the following error as well:

Same numbers and text

How can I check what radio I've flashed? Also, I don't think i have WinMo installed anymore as my phone just boots straight to MAGLDR after failing to load a android nand (but how can it when none is installed lol).

Since I've gone through the CustomRUU.exe for both 2.14 and 2.15, do I already have the radio flashed? Nothing went wrong and the process was completed

I've already done everything you posted before my original post, I just on getting those .RSPL errors.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] efeguwewe:
anybody have any idea what I should do?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] voncrane:
Hmmm...Try this then.

Perform a Task29.

Flash a 2.15.50.14 radio.

Install MAGLDR 1.13.

Install CWM...(If needed & Paying attention to which particular clockwork partitioning system will work for you desired build).

Re-download the android build..(cuz i think some files might ave messed up while downloading).

Find an alternative means (e.g. thru sd card readers / thru CWM's mount storage system) to transfer the zipped build to ur memory card...Avoid using MAGLDR's inbuilt usb mass storage utility as its been reported 2 have a few issues during transfers.

If u also have a TMobile HD2, u might be interested in d build i'm currently running..It supports CWM n flashing it and or updates ave never given me issues.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
its because that rom isn't for tmous. it IS a tmous rom, but it was built for development purposes to be used on a regular hd2.

The radio it includes 2.05.50.x is one of two radios (2.04.50.x and 2.05.50.x) that have the same effect as a ..51.. radio, , i.e black screen, no boot, no bootloader, faint vibration, computer looks for and fails to find qualcomm drivers, etc, etc.

Normally i would say 'its dead', but there have been one or two (out of several hundered) threads where after several slightly bizarre steps, (chilling the battery/phone, using certain test roms, standing with one foot in a bucket of pigs tears at midnight, etc) phones have been brought back to life ---BUT--- i suspect these may be slightly different circumstances, so whilst hope is always good, prepare for sadness.

If its under warranty, thats your best option.

Good luck.
