Guest Evanb78 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 No, normal use. Some phone calls, internet (mostly Wifi), but very few gaming sessions. I guess it's the last point that saves a lot of battery :) Then you probably have a magic battery or Paul's Froyo ROM has very good battery power management. :lol: I don't play any games either, but WiFi is the most important power drain cause in any phone. How many hours do you use WiFi per day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Krinyo Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Hours? Minutes. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stryke69 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 I have tasker with that my wifi is only on when really needed. And yes Krinyo, I'm not a heavy surfer with the Blade (at home i have my notebook for that), so I guess it's about 2 hours a day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ibcus Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Thats amazing, 8 hours of internet use, phone calls and a little gaming and your battery lasts 4 days? WOW. There must be something wrong with my Blade.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest twatter Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Thats amazing, 8 hours of internet use, phone calls and a little gaming and your battery lasts 4 days? WOW. There must be something wrong with my Blade.... The spec says four hours of calls...? For me 1 to 2 days depending how much internet and calls. Games / movies etc - only for travelling - next week - snowboarding cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anjan Tek Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Doesn't WiFi disconnect and go to sleep as soon as the phone goes to sleep? I understand that that problem still exists in all ROMs (it certainly does on JJ9). Or am I mistaken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There must be something wrong with my Blade.... That's what I am thinking. 8 hours of wifi usage/browsing seems slightly unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rotmann Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 (edited) My wife gets 3-4 days but uses the phone on wi-fi 10-15 minutes a day for e-mails, facebook and yahoo messenger. She calls and sends SMS very rare, no mobile data access for her. Using browsing on wi-fi 8 hours and still getting 4 days of stand-by MINIMUM is utopic, sorry (not just for the Blade but just for every smartphone out there). She is on Seb's de-softened Froyo with the new kernel and all fixes. Edited January 29, 2011 by Rotmann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is on Seb's de-softened Froyo with the new kernel and all fixes. Without wishing to hijack this "Greek (Grecian?) ROM" thread too much - I get up to 3 days with relative ease on a mixed bag of usage. I have 2 Blades - a TFT that was running MCR r11 and now Sebs R0.2 and an OLED running JJ9 and no added fluff. All builds will last 3 days unless I do something out of the ordinary. And I autosync plenty with location too. Provided you haven't got hideous "insomniac" apps or play games and have autobrightness set and WiFi sleeping with display off, then why not? Incidentally, there appears to be no obvious difference between the battery consumption of my OLED and TFT. I DO take care to ensure the OLED has dark backgrounds/wallpapers to minimise power usage. The TFT is screen content agnostic in this respect. For what it's worth. Edited January 29, 2011 by Len Ash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
