[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] likiud:
WHen I was on the stock rogers Froyo rom, I used juice defender to help me improve battery life. It really worked. Usually I unplug at 6:30am and go to work, and get through the day by 5pm, I'm down to about 55% battery. Without Juice defender I am usually down to about 35% battery. This is with moderate use.

My main use with juice defender is simply disabling data when the screen turns off and auto enabling it every 30mins for syncing of emails. I work in an office so I have access to internet all the time.

Now, many custom roms claimed to have improved battery life, and some people saying that juice defender actually drains more battery.

I am using Paragon RC6 right now with juice defender getting roughly about the same battery life as it was before on stock froyo with juice defender.

As anyone experienced having more battery without juice defender on these custom roms? I have no overclocking or undervolting
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BugsBunny891:
Your post was way to long to read. Short answer no. Juice defender doesn't do crap its like a placebo effect that you want your money back aftwards.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwertyaas:
I didn't like juice defender at all. I do use juice plotter though.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wbcollins:
I like both juice plotter and juice defender, but I think the benefits of juice defender are going to be more or less evident depending on how you use your phone. Like you, I like to have all data connections turned off when the screen is off unless something specific is happening, like a download. That way, I see very little battery drainage from data connections during long meetings/classes, whatever. However, if you are frequently turning your screen on and off, it may not show much benefit.

There may be other ways, beyond juice defender, to accomplish this

I don't think your post was too long to read because it gives details about how you use your device.

You could probably use juice plotter over a few days and compare days with and without juice defender to see if you are gaining much.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeyMike01:
I used juice plotter to graph the battery with and without juice defender.

The battery was better without it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
my experience is all task managers do more harm than good, especially considering the improved memory management used in 2.2 and further in 2.2.1 and will see even more in 2.3. ON Top of that even better memory management (sometimes worse) is in the custom kernels based on those stock kernels.

NO JUICE FOR YOU!!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wbcollins:
I'm seriously outgunned in this thread. I guess I ought to work a few days without juicedefender myself. :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stigFX:
Juiceplotter is a must-have app if u care about battery life. Whether juicedefender helps or not depends on so many factors that the only way to tell is to try it on ur own.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wbcollins:
I find value in jd for turning off all data (wifi and 3g) when the screen sleeps and to put the phone in airplane mode during the middle of the night. Juice plotter seem to confirm that I get much less battery drain when I do so. If I knew of another way of doing this with android natively, I would do so.

I find many of the other features of jd less impactful on battery life.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moxie3000:
I only use Juice Plotter, but that by itself saved me a ton of battery life. It helped me to confirm that the positional sensor that triggers auto-rotate was eating up my battery. i.e., while on my desk it, but idle, it drank less juice than when in my pocket and idle...by like a factor of 50%.

So I've turned off auto-rotate entirely and that may well keep me from needing Juice Defender at all. We'll see.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevria:
I have been using JD with my phone and it does seem to help. I have Serendipity 5.12 and Paragon. The only thing I don't like about it is that it sometimes doesn't reactivate 3G when I wake the screen. If there were another way to turn the wifi and 3G off when the screen turns off then I would take that.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsbac:
I am using Cog4.1.1 and use JD with Ultimate Juice. It definitely helps my phone when the screen is off. If you are actively using your phone, JD does nothing for you.

jsbac
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] likiud:
I have tested it. I used it and used without it. The difference doesn't seem much for me. When it puts it to flight mode when I'm at night, it actually drains more battery than when I disabled juice defender and put on flight mode. I'm guessing running the service drains some battery. However, if you're running some data intensive widgets that seem to always update, then JD does help as it only activates data for a short period of time to sync. I am not the case. I'm only syncing 3 email accounts and calendar. A different alternative app that uses lesser CPU and memory may be more suitable for those that have similar usage like me.

Greetings HD2 brethren! I present to you YABS (yet another boot screen...lol)! I call this the 'Contextualize This!' Edition. For the last month, I have been using Windows Phone 7 Series; shockingly inspired by the highly contextual graphical user interface. I find myself pleasantly enjoying my experience with this new OS therefore I whipped this baby up on Photoshop. ;) Let me know what you think. Also, I took the liberty of packaging a bitmap image of the boot screen in case anyone wants to make modifications before flashing (for examaple, I have my boot screen show my name and contact information in case my device gets lost). Please note: if you wish to modify, you will have to recompile the *.nbh image).

About the design/modifications:

New 'HD2' Logo. The number two is represented in its roman numerical form (e.g. II) with the 'HD' marker centered between these two pillars.

Monochromatic...'nuff said.

Foreground is composed of random text/characters; the basis of this theme.

Modified the Win Mo 6.5.x logo (simply put '6.5.x' in the lower right quadrant) and Android logo (It is now waiving! :eek:)

Hey everyone,

I searched the forum for missing apps and haven't seen a clear answer as how to fix the market from missing apps besides side loading. I'm running Froyo 0.6.8 V3 and I'm missing basic apps such as facebook, tweetdeck, and other goodies. I've tried market enabler and clearing data and cache on google frameworks and market rebooting and still same thing.

Is there a clear fix or just sideloading?

Thanks

[Samsung Mesmerize] akellar:

[Samsung Mesmerize] sageDieu:
What's the deal with OCLF? I've seen people saying it gives bloated scores, but does it actually work?
[Samsung Mesmerize] GStone:
OCLF pretty much just alters the way the program reads the files and gives a false score. Sure it looks bad ass when you run quadrant standard but it doesn't really effect the performance. Voodoo kernel should be here very soon. I say just hold tight a little bit longer for that.

BTW anyone know of a quality bluetooth controller for Android that's not the Wiimote?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kenhunt:
I just played Star Fox 64 on my tv through the hdmi out with the wii controller actually, wasn't too bad, video playback was great, the sound wasn't though...hopefully with some updates it'll be a good app. Impressed with it so far though!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ocdtrekkie:
The first update is already out and should have fixed that. You're a really jumpy refunder, lol. yongzh is very active at updating and improving his emulators.

N64oid runs well on Xoom, but it has a lot of bugs to be worked out. I'm sure a lot of games will look and run much nicer in the next few weeks, but it's well worth the purchase.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] Xezuka:
Yeah Mario64 runs great! Also have played the Zelda a bit -- the only issues I noticed is some audio/video lag issues. Try adjusting your Max skip frames from 3 to 5 or so under settings. Fixed audio and lag in some games. This app will be awesome soon. Still is a great wip to bring back memories.

Controls are actually very easy but take a slight learning curve. Its just odd not having physical buttons!

I believe the files are there, but you need to enable the boot sounds in CWM through Recovery mode.

As long as there isnt a custom boot animation then it should work but if there is then it wont work as the custom boot animation breaks the boot up sounds. You could remove the custom boot animation and that will fix the sound

[G2 and Desire Z General] Raptor-21:
Just want some advice really, I always keep a spare battery in my pocket, and accidently put some jeans through the wash with the battery in it! Noticed half way through, dried it off and now have it sitting in a bag of rice. There was also some green funk on the positive terminal that I wiped off.

So after a day two once it is dry, would it be safe to test it in the phone, or would it be best just to chuck it? Obviously I'd like not to have to buy a new one, but if there is a risk of damaging the phone then I'll just buy another one. So what do you think?
[G2 and Desire Z General] WarBird87:
if its dry test it out. how else are you going to find out if its messed up or not lol
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sh4d0w940:
If you have a multimeter I'd check the voltages first, just because it's easy.

It's always the best to be sure before you try it on your phone.

edit: typo removed
[G2 and Desire Z General] Raptor-21:
I would, but I'd like to know first if I could damage the phone before testing it out, as not worth risking the phone for the sake of a £15 battery.

That's a good idea, i know my flat mate has one, but he's away right now and don't really know how to use it, any suggestions on how it should be set up and what the expected output should be? It's one of the newer digital ones with the display up top and a large dial below. Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z General] shortlived:
There should be some settings on the meter. You want DC and auto if its an option else you want to set it low the output of the battery should be listed on the battery itself. It should be pretty low ie 1 - 4 volts maybe. Just a guess though
[G2 and Desire Z General] setspeed:
Is it worth it? There is bound to be some contaminants inside the battery now, and worst case scenario it's going to ruin your £400 phone when it shorts out/blows up/voltage spikes.

Just get rid of the battery to a recycling place it, and buy a new one. You'll be sorry otherwise.
[G2 and Desire Z General] wilnotdie:
Did that about a week ago. My backup/password manager Blackberry Pearl died but my spare G2 battery still works fine.

But like anything, results may very.

I had everything on that pearl :( lost a lot of passwords!!!

Goodluck.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kgold708:
Try to charge it if you have on of those dock type charger. I'd be more worried if it went through a full wash/dry cycle. Being submerged in warm soapy water OTOH is nothing to worry about. Its a sealed battery. However it did likely completely discharge itself, quickly. The fast discharge may have over heated it.

Do you wash your jeans cold, warm, or hot? :)

Hi everybody, I'm new on the pda's world.

I already have a HP iPaq model hx2490b with Windows 5.0, and I wanna upgrade to Windows 6.5. I'm spanish, and I have the Spiaatie's version of windows mobile 6.5 in spanish language. Until here all good. In theory, it's too easy to install the 6.5 version. But when I push the buttons for bootloader mode (iTask + agenda + reset button), the Pda screen turns slowly white, then, slowly, a darks lines vertically appears. I think that in the bootloader mode must appear letters or something, or not? What can I do?.

Another question is that yesterday I was bored and I prove to install the 6.5 version without the bootloader mode. The upgrade begin and, in 0.1% appears a error:

I guess that makes sense. Hopefully, it will be more in the $600-$700 range. Too bad there is no Wifi only version yet. If we can get $500 wifi only Gtab 10.1, it will be much more competitive. It's kind of dumb on Samsung's part not to have multiple pricing tiers. May have to do with cost of manufacturer. I don't know.
