HTC Hero :: 2.1 ROMs And Battery Life (Consumption Better Or Worse)
Apr 24, 2010The only thing putting me off rooting my Hero and installing the villain 5.3 ROM is concern about whether it will shorten the amount of time I can go between battery charges. Does anyone have any numbers on this, or even just impressions about whether consumption is better or worse than on the standard 1.6 ROM.

Dec 3, 2009My non-branded GSM hero eats battery. So I decided to check some things out. These numbers are starting from 100% battery, and after a reboot - the only thing I open is settings to check the battery level, and then I lock it and leave it for 6 hours. In all cases the final awake time is low, less than 15% (because I'm doing nothing with it). Full data-sync mode - gmail sync, twitter, etc - about 10% battery use per hour. Retro mode - GSM only, data switched off - 6 % per hour. Airplane mode - 3.5% per hour - WTF?? (Awake time ~1%) Why is battery consumed when it's doing sod all?

Feb 11, 2010I really like to run Dolphin in the background and it runs fine (on Fresh 1.1 with Gumbo Kernel + setcpu) and I have 2-3 tabs open and everything else runs fine. I try not to run too much else (if I do ebuddy it gets slow, so I usually don't), but I was wondering how bad this was to do, and if I could check somehow how bad it was. I don't know a way to tell how draining this is on the battery or how the phone runs, is there any way to check?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHTC EVO 4G :: Suggestions For Battery Consumption?
Jun 22, 2010First, these screen shots were taken after the battery had been fully charged 2 hours prior. I pulled it off right after the light turned green, so that isn't the issue. Also, I've already done the charge, turn off, charge, turn on, etc. thing. My light turned green almost instantly the first time I turned it off and plugged it back in. The screen was on 18.5% of the time during this stretch, so that's pretty heavy usage. But why would the system have been running 53.3% of the time? I wouldn't think that number would/should be much higher than the screen-on time.

Oct 3, 2010I was trying to search and use google with no luck (from my Hero) so I am sorry if this is a old question. I am currently using a HTC Hero (Sprint) and am purchasing a HTC Evo next week and I was wondering if the battery consumption is similar or a lot worse / better etc. with my Hero I have like gps, wifi, bluetooth off and all the other tricks? I don't mind having all that disabled it never bother me as I really never use twitter, facebook and the gmail app works just fine for me. With my Hero I can get through the day always with all that disabled so any insight if the Evo is similar would be appreciated! Oh and I am not a former blackberry user that expects my phone to last six days on a charge.

Aug 29, 2010I went on vacation last week and did a comparison between my X and my wife's Incredible. We were on a cruise, so both phones stayed in airplane mode due to not needing a signal. With absolutely no use, not even turning on the screen, my battery went from 100% - 10% in 37 hours... Dumbfounded, I went to running app.s and stopped nearly everything. I tried again and only got 49 hours. In comparison, her Droid used 10% of her battery in 9 days! The X advertises 220 hours of standby....I am only 180 hours shy of this, something wrong or do they just lie? Remember, my numbers are no use at all, the battery manager only showed "phone idol" as battery consumption.

Jun 28, 2010My system was starting to get a little bit laggy (especially messages app), so I deleted all of my messages and a load of apps I no longer use. As well as my phone speeding up by leaps and bounds, my battery is getting about 3 hours additional life (minimum). Before, 15 minutes after taking my phone off charge it had lost a bar, but now.. I took my phone off charge at 7:15am and listened to music for 40 minutes on the way to work.. it's now 10:19am and I still haven't lost a bar!
View 5 Replies View RelatedHTC Incredible :: WiFi And Battery Consumption
Sep 26, 2010As an experiment I set all my internet apps - backup assistant, gmail, people, calendar, news, weather, amazon, stocks, facebook, etc, etc, ETC, to not automatically update, sync, refresh or do anything on the internet without my say-so. I then turned off my phone, put a full charge on it and turned it back on again to reset the timer for Settings > About phone > Battery > Battery use. For the next 6 hours I made a few phone calls while I was not in range of any wifi; I used a few local (non-internet) apps like calculator and stopwatch and camera but I did NOT use any internet apps. At the end of that time "battery use" showed Wi-Fi at 30%, Cell standby at 28% and voice calls at 6%. So why is WiFi so high? Is that just from some "keep alive" or beacon or polling feature? Or is there some app or process I don't know about using the WiFi connection, and how do I tell?

View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Battery Consumption Is More At Boot Up Of Device
Nov 20, 2013I had made changes in S/W as suggested in post : [URL] .....
The device I am working is also having wake up lag about 2 sec.It varies from 1.2sec,0.8sec,1.8sec..etc. I implemented the new wake log to prevent the phone from deep sleep as you have mentioned. Now the time required for wake up from deep sleep is reduced to 0.8s and its quite consistent. Although I have to yet check for battery consumption during deep sleep.
However I have found that now when the phone is reset the battery consumption is more during the power up of the phone. For Ex. from 36% before power up and 24% after powerup.
Checked with another device and its only taking 3% for boot up.
Motorola Droid X :: Uses Same Amount Of Battery / Data Regardless Of Whether
Aug 2, 2010I was wondering if the weather app that Moto has built in still uses the same amount of battery/data regardless of whether or not it is on the home screen. I took the widget off the home screen and stopped the weather process and it just comes back anyway. So the weather process is still running in the background. I'd like to use the weather widget, but don't want to deal with battery drain. Bad enough my phone has reset itself twice in the last 24 hours.

Jun 5, 2010Well this is really a two question thread, I'm new to Android.
1) Which multi-protocol (AIM, Facebook, MSN, etc) client eats the least amount of battery?
I downloaded Meebo and it seems pretty good (heard eBuddy is worse in consumption), I'm wondering if there's anything better.
2) Does GTalk consume the least amount of battery since it's integrated with Android in comparison to third party clients?
As of now I don't have any friends who use GTalk but I'm trying to convince a few to get it.

Mar 29, 2010Has anyone else noticed the battery charge does not seem to last well? I have the wifi turned off and only enable it when required but just general usage seems to sap the power quite quickly. At the moment I'm not sure a full charge would even last a day! Are there any smart apps out there to help manage this? Do widgets relly use that much power? The Android OS itself seems to use an alarming amount of power as does everything else!

Nov 5, 2010I've been trying some music players and went through the threads we have here on the subject. I'm trying to figure out if some players will drain the battery faster than others.

I've been using it for about 4 hours and went from 100% to 38%. What are your experiences with battery drain and music players?

The one where it shows which apps and hardware are consuming the most power. i couldn't find it and gave up. until one day when a low battery warning appeared on the screen. usually i cancel it, but this one time i clicked OK and it brought me to the battery consumption graph i was looking for.
seems to be the only way i can access it. i understand that this tablet is entry level, but shouldn't i be able to get to this without having to wait for a low battery warning?

Mar 2, 2010My HTC Hero uses about 1 Mb per day, while no applications seem to require data. Automatically popping mail has been disabled, and also other data consuming apps aren't running. I switched off cell (3G) so it consumes the data via WiFi. If I switch on 3G, it would also consume via 3G. So, by not using any apps, the Hero seems to consume 1 Mb per day. How come?
