Guest jastonas Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 Hello. I think I have a faulty device. I have installed the newest baseband and after wiping ALL, I installed TK rom. I have not done ANY market installs. Just signed in with google account to check what's wrong with the battery. Froze with titanium car home and started playing around and the battery is still draining with such a clean install. I did a reboot and tried what I wrote in the title. I just browsed in the market without ever installing anything. On wi-fi, just browsing, going up and down in market, some times pausing to read, see the pictures of apps... and the battery would drain 1% every 2 minutes!! Isn't that too much?? Could someone do the same test to cross check? I ve had the device for 2 weeks now and i have tried to do good battery charges but nothing seems to help.

Guest aMpeX Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 (edited) You know that TK Rom has an OC kernel right? edit: That aside, how was your battery before you flashed the custom ROM? edit2: Install Battery Monitor Widget from the market or check the battery consumption in the phone info section of the settings to find out what consumes the battery Edited April 19, 2011 by aMpeX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jastonas Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 You know that TK Rom has an OC kernel right? That aside, how was your battery before you flashed the custom ROM? It has an OC kernel but I have not messed, not even opened the app PimpmyCpu so iam guessing it's running with high at 1ghz. I had my phone with stock rom for less than a day so I cannot say it's the roms fault. I have tried almost all the roms out there and all get the same result for me :) That's why I asked if anyone can to the exact thing i did with market to check if it happens with other people as well and if it is normal.

Guest aMpeX Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 like I said, check the battery logs if they shed any light on the biggest user of your battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have already get used to that. Just place order on replacement batteries on ebay. Pretty cheap, and I can now forget about the gauge. usually, I need 3 batteries for my usage from 6am-10pm p.s. I already did the battery calibration.. and I GUESS the source of problem is different batteries got some degree of different in fully charged voltage, which make the gauge not accurate at all. one more thing is the tegra2 seems drawing a big current too.. the voltage may drop a lot when you playing games.. but you'll see the voltage go up again after you let the phone to take a brake.

Just place order on replacement batteries on ebay. Normal behaviour on Android devices ! My Nexus One, just over 90%, plugged, indicates "fully charged" sometimes Nexus at 100%, just after unplug, decreases instantly to a value near to 90% So don't be scared !
