battery life with data enabled

[Guest jebise]

As the title says how long dose your battery last if you have data enabled? At work today i was forced to use data since i had no laptop and the battery dropped down really fast i used data for only 1.5 hours or less maybe and the battery was down to 15% from like 85%

Sorry jebise but what this has to do with roms?

This thread is supposed to discuss issues regarding Roms.

That's a pretty good rate. And yeah. Wrong forum.

yeah i was looking for it this morning and could not find it, admin please move this thread to correct fourm.

That's an excessive rate. Normally, using an intensive data connection my battery decreases about 1% every 5-7 minutes (that's transferring all the time), so that means about 12% per hour. If your battery went from 85% to 15% in 1 1/2 hours is too much. I would check which processes are active.

it was just MSN that was running al though i'm using a sence 2.5 ROM which again uses allot of memory.

[Guest Mikroft]

Oh crap. I misread. I thought u said you lost 15% and have 85% left.

Yes that's way too excessive. Make sure your cpu is set to auto.

It is sent to auto, just noticed after a full charge over night and just used as a MP3 player battery is at 65% usually after a full charge and just listening i would only drop a couple of percent and could go about 4 days without charging but now this is not the case. The only thing that has changed is that i flashed a kydkylin Sence ROM, maybe the drivers is not registering the correct percentage?

But i did let the battery die yesterday so so that it can get a full charge and get the correct readings, but i dunno whats going on now.

My device is connected all the time, with 2 mail accounts + windows live account + google account working as exchange server, all of this configured with "as item arrives" schedule. Usually i do a lot of internet searching and google maping (with gps). I usuallly use media player for music. I have installed "keep gps alive" app, which keeps gps on, and refreshes it every 5 minutes. I also use titanium weather with "my location" app (cell tower id location) activated so it refreshes with the weather of the exact city i am in real time. With all this "battery eating" configuration I usually arrive to the end of the day with ~50% battery. How?.. on the first time, and just with the mail schedule "as item arrives" it didn't pass half a day without charging, till i found an app called "wmlonglife". that way i configured my phone for working almost always with 2G instead of 3G. I can choose when to change to 3G every time i want.

hope it helps.

anyway, maybe you already know about this, but JIC there is a battery monitor app (sadly with no tracking) on /windows called BatteryMonitor.exe
