Battery Timer

[Guest pwest13]

Hey peepz, just wondering if there is an app, or one being created considered before about a battery life timer.

To mak emyself a little clearer, my 8390 has ok battery life but when the phone itself says "main battery low replace battery charger immedietly etc..." it isnt actually really low, i cant still text or call for a good time yet.

What im lookin for is an app which says like exactly how long batter time i have left in 'time' not bar length.

See what i mean?

"1 hour 29 minutes battery power left."

Good idea? Bad idea?

Does it exist?

Thanks,

Westy

im not so sure, what if it just used the battery bars position for timing, so when the bar is half full say 18hours left or w/e, i suppose this would be alot of work to make it accurate tho.

beersofts monitor does tell you in days/hours how long you have left but its not very reliable (cos it cant be) because the battery consumption changes are very volatile. so 1 min you have 3 days 12 hours next min you'll have 3 days 4 hours. so you cant really have a reliable battery timer cos the battery doesnt use the same amount all the time.

err, yep its supposed to do that

it works out the time remaining based on usage, so if your phone is on but left in a draw for 4 days, you might get 4 days, but if your using it for calls as soon as it comes of charge you will get 200 mins (or something)

trust me, i know that it works

i know it works, i never said it doesnt

what im saying is, battery usage changes extremely from one min to the next and it shows in the time left. i use your app everyday, enough said :wink: .
