all you need to do is copy the cab file to

/ipsm/windows/start menu/ or /storage/windows/start menu/

then click on it from the programs menu

later

Cool App, and very useful, I have been using it alot. However I am not sure what all the figures mean i.e Fastest / Slowest / Average / Last / Current? Can you give me an explanation please.

Cheers,

Goatfaced.

ok, the magic numbers mean

fastest is the quickest time the phone has used 1% of battery (somewhere between 2 and 11 is normal)

slowest is the longest amount of time the battery has used 1% in (somewhere between 45 and 3 hours is average)

average is the average of the fastest,slowest current and last

and current/last is just what its doing at the moment, and what the last one was

When I downloaded the file it cam up as a Zip file on my PC.

Then I couldn't unzip it. What do I need to do to get the file to copy from my PC to my C500?

Thanks :D

its a .cab file, not a .zip file

copy the .cab file to:

mobile device/my smartphone / storage/ windows/start menu

then on the phone look in the menu, you will see the file. run it

Dear Beersoft.

I installed your app and found it to be excellent and very easy to use, however I have a question regarding the numbers. My phone is an SMT 5600 suposed to last 140 hours on stand by, but I get about 1 day.

The numbers I get are as follows:

Battery: 83%

Fastest: oh:2m

Slowest: 2h:14m

Average: 2h:22m

last: 0h:1m

current: 0h:19m

Time Left 1d:18h:3m

Time Running 7h:17m

Are them correct or is there a problem with my phone or battery?

Thanks

Hello!

How can it be?:

Battery: 71%

Fastest: 0d 0h 4m

Slowest 0d 3h 34m

Average: 0d 5h 31m ????

Last: 0d 0h 11m

Current: 0d 0h 15m

Time left: 5d 17h 26m ????

Time running: 0d 18h 25m

How can average value be bigger than slowest value? :) Can you give the way, how it calculates the average value?

But... graet soft anyway :D

TIA

Try turning off Bluetooth, that eats up a lot of battery.

This is a neat app. I assume the OS tracks the battery capacity, and simply reports to you the percentage. But does the OS keep track of the time between % readings, or do you have to track that?

It is interesting that if I never turn on the screen, it could last 12 days.

Has anyone written up how much current draw there is to doing different tasks? (IE: Screen on bright = 25 mA. Screen dim = 20 mA. Screen OFF and no program running = 1 mA, running DOOM = 50 mA, etc.) (Hey those were just examples NOT REAL DATA)

Once again bobby it is a cab file not a zip. ;)

Don't extract the archive move it to the start menu of your phone and click on it - it will extract itself and install - have a look at what Disco Stu said in the other threads you posted in. :D

I copied it to my start menu, clicked and nothing happened, load of rubbish.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

the cab file?

did it ask to install anything?

did you restart your phone afterwards?

did you think posting a rude request for help would make us want to help?

Sorry, didn't mean to be rude, I was being flippant.

It appears the only rubbish thing involved was me, I've now got it working.

The program is very nice! I just tried it on my i-mate SP5 - seems to be working ok (will post updates if I found anything strange).

This is actually the first program I've found that can estimate run time on HTC Tornado (WM5) devices which is excellent!

Beersoft, could I aks you couple of questions - program runs always in background and collects statistics data and this is the way it estimates runtime remaining based on battery charge % - right?

If so - does program load somehow on startup meaning not necessary to run it right after reset in order to start collecting data? (I didn't see it in memory when I restarted the phone)

Thanks again for the nice tool!
