Guest james1986 Posted June 8, 2011 Report Posted June 8, 2011 Hi I have been suffering with a 5 hour battery life on my OSF running 2.2 Swedish Spring ROM (I was getting 20 hours with the stock ROM). Installing traffic stats app I can see that the phone is sending/receiving approximately 0.5Mb of data in a 5 minutes. This seems high to be just the background sync. I have removed all apps that I have installed recently. My question is, does anyone know of an app on the market that can tell me which phone apps are using the data? Thanks Jim
Guest lazyliam Posted June 8, 2011 Report Posted June 8, 2011 sorry im guessing this wont help you but ive got a few things im wondering about ive not long ago had to return my phone old oled model blue tint on screeen and luckily i got a refurb oled model again id had some battery problems in past phone once stoped charging saying it overheating for a day took it back to shop it charged and problem never replicated again on battery use i used flbs roms to good affect couldnt use really any other 2.2 rom because of such bad battery drain(including swedish spring) and i found one of the sebastian 2.1 roms amazing on battery life but now to the new phone ive only rooted and de branded my orange rom and have to say i think the battery life is better than everything else ive seen bar none so i suppose question is could new phone be better on battery sorry battery is off the original phone as only replace handset and off topic but i think the rom is amazing in general its the best ive ever played tv catchup minimul sync problems p.s sorry for grammer

Thanks Jim I suggest LBE security, and set it to block network access for apps that shouldnt need network access. You can then check the log to see what still tried to access the data connection. Alternatively droidwall is also good for this, and probably uses less battery. Edited June 8, 2011 by flshg
Guest Searcher2 Posted June 9, 2011 Report Posted June 9, 2011 I had a similar issue to you when I went to SS5. I didn't hang around though and went to FLB and all is okay again. Sorry it doesn't fix your situation.... but maybe if all else fails try FLB. I didn't really spend long enough with SS5 to appreciate what it can do over stock ROM/FLB but FLB does everything I need it to.

Which one is FLB?

Guest erci541 Posted June 10, 2011 Report Posted June 10, 2011 I advise you to give CM7 2.3.4 a try. N85, the latest nightly. I haven't encountered any problems other than the proximity sensor. Battery life is great compared to previous cm7 roms. I can easily get 3 days out of the battery with moderate use, and 2 days with multimedia features like music, video and internet with wi-fi and edge. I deactivated 3g so that battery can last longer. I frequently kill apps and task killer pro is at crazy mode:) You should certainly try cm 7 nightly 85. No other issues apart from proximity, which works first time you put your mobile on your face and then the screen is always on.
Guest Searcher2 Posted June 10, 2011 Report Posted June 10, 2011 Sorry - the FLB I am using is this one http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blad...-oled-tft-gen1/ I've just got over 2.5 days out of it. I don't use it for phone calls but have push email, weather and calendar syncing during the day on 3G. Do a bit of internet browsing in the day. When I go to bed I put it in Airplane mode and back on 3G when I get up. There is a newer version for Gen 2 which you will find in the ROM section but I wanted to stay on Gen 1.
