the first two days my battery life was incredible. for the last 3-4 i've been trying to figure out why its become terrible again. today i basically uninstalled all apps from my phone and am going to run it dry to see if it lasts any longer than the 6 1/2hrs with mild usage from yesterday.

2.2.2
2) Are you freezing apps?
Appack, browser (done yesterday), 2 - car homes, 2 - com.logmeins (done yesterday), email, maps, 2 - my accounts, tmo tv, tegrazone, videochat, zhino & zprovider (both done yesterday)
3) Are you using a task killer?
I was, ATK. Killing apps 20+ times a day. Removed ATK yesterday.
4) Are you using juice defender, or a similar app?
Just Watchdog to watch for things actually using up the battery. All is well.
5) Did you do google setup after a factory reset or right out of the box?
No. Purchased at TMO store. She took it out of the box and turned it on to get everything swtiched over. She handed me the phone at the google setup, I hit skip. I set it up later when I got home.. and then I charged the phone.
6) WCDMA preferred or WCDMA/GSM auto?
I thought it was on auto. It was on GSM only. Will switch to auto tomorrow after a fresh charge.
7) How is your battery life?
Been watching closely.. Pulled the charger at 8a (EST) yesterday. I just hit 32hrs. 24% remaining. A cpl web browsings, cpl txts, a handful of lengthy calls, messing around w/ uninstalling/installing apps, rebooted a couple of times while dealing w/ tmo on the phone.. minimal usage.
Wifi is on 95% of the time, with wifi calling.
Something interesting changed yesterday and I'm not sure specifically what app/service I froze that did it (I listed all that I did yesterday). Cell standby and wifi were always the top 2 dogs in battery usage.. this has been the case every single day since I've had the phone.
Today, phone idle is the top dog for the first time.. 35%. Cell standby 25%, wifi 24%. Cell stndby and wifi have been mainly up in the 35-40s. But then again, my usage hasn't been that high in the last 32hrs either.

Have you successfully gotten a 100% charge yet? I'm sure you have, but gotta ask. I wonder if it's just a bad battery. Have you tried to get a new one from TMO?

Download the application SamServMode, this is just an application to quickly open the service menu. Press 1, press 8, press 4. GSM is EDGE, WCDMA is 3g!
Funny, I wish, there was just an icon or a widget that would let me do it.. hell the iPhone lets you do it pretty easy like with just a few steps..
I use ''gt-widget data'' to shut off 3g data,i can still get calls,but of course no data,which realy helps to save if your on the 200mb plan,although sometimes the widget disapears you can just long press the screen and select android widgets to get it back
yea. but i rather just have Edge sometimes, i dont use much data, and i do it just to save battery..
on another note, wonder why I can't get an extended battery for my Captivate.. i dont care if it's a little thicker, but a bnice big battery would be nice.
well,i dont see the 3g symbol activated when using that widget,i hoping im using edge,i need to see if i get better batt life,i only been using it 2 days
I use quick settings free apparently in market. Can't choose edge only. Just on or off 3g.
APNdroid works well too. did a nice job
went out of country and didn't want to use ANY data (even with world plan, roaming charges are outrageous).
i installed apndroid to on/off 3g. it didn't work well. i guess i didn't restart.
i restarted the phone after uninstalling apndroid.
now i don't get the 3g icon on top. and it doesn't work too. any way to reactivate it?

Looks like your APN info is lost, atleast looks so. Its is best to always backup APNs using "APN Backup Restore" app before doing this.
Also, next time on, you could try using SAMSERVMODE to disable enable 2G/3G data mode. That would be most non-intrusive way, since the changes would be persistent only till phone reboot. On reboot, they would be restored back.

APN droid, to the best of my knowledge, deletes APN settings when disabling data. It restores them when restoring connection. Kind of dangerous way esp. considering that people do not always remember to restore data connection before deleting the app.
Please correct me if my understand of APN droid is wrong.
You could simple disable "data" in network settings.
This is would be advisable compared to using apps when settings/options are already present:
Settings --> Wireless and Network --> Mobile Networks --> Use Packet Data - ON or OFF.
---------------- Edit 1 ----------------
If you are on AT&T network in US, you could:
1. Ask anyone (could be on this forum too) to backup their AT&T APN settings using the "APN Backup Restore" app,
2. Copy the same to ur internal sd card,
3. Install the program on ur phone, and
4. Restore them on ur phone.
I could do the same, but I use a custom ROM and have some hundreds of APN entries. Stock AT&T ROMs have like 69-71 entries.
---------------- Edit 2 ----------------
I have attached the APNs I had backed up 22nd August 2010 when on 2.1. Attaching the same.
1. Create a folder called "ApnBackupRestore" on sdcard.
2. Extract and copy the XML from the attached file into this folder.
3. Install APN Backup and Restore app, and restore the data from this.
Hope this helps...

Use SAMSERVMODE from market to turn on EDGE only or 3G only. This app does that, though the data is lost on restart and would need to turn on EDGE again after every restart.
I've been using APNdroid for quite a while now, and it works perfectly. It also comes with a widget which makes turning data on/off really easy.
i installed juice defender/ ultimate juice. it has a widget that turns off 3G..try it.

If you are using the newer Perception ROM. It can easily be changed by going to:
Settings > wireless and network > mobile networks > network mode
then select one of 3 choices (auto, GSM, WCDMA)
There's no need to install widgets or add-ons.
this is great, but it's a pain to go thu all thoes menus. thats why i hated the iphone soo much, going thue all these menus takes more time..
just want an on/off switch,.. would be nice if they could add it to the shade next to the wifi icon..
or when wifi is on, data turns off or goes to EDGE.
app: Switch Network Type works as a fast shortcut for me. Got it from the market.
I use switchpro widget. It has a toggle for pretty much anything you need to turn on/off. Its a paid app but its cheap and it really consolidates all of your toggle needs

SeidioOnline has an extended life battery available as of Nov. 2010
Widgetsoid. 'Nuff said.
Lets face it. All devices have bugs upon release that the normal person won't care about nor think of it as a bug. This device has it's share but as a reminder. There is no software bug that can't be fixed. By the way, make sure you don't skip the initial setup and if you did just wipe and restore.
1) Some are having a problem when using WiFi. There 4G or 3G data is not turning off and instead of your device using WiFi to exchange data it is using your 4G or 3G data. If you turn WiFi on and don't see a 4G/3G icon in the notification area then your device is working properly in this department.
The Fix: There is three "My Account" apps on our devices and there causing a conflict when 2 or more is running at the same time. To fix this you need to delete all of them (I used Root Explorer). If you use "My Account" you can download the current version from the market. Next, freeze or delete WiFi calling and the T-Mobile app pack. After you have deleted everything you have to reboot your device. Note: While deleting or freezing some of these, you might get some looping force closes. Just simply remove your battery to reboot the device and once it reboots the force closing will be gone.
2) Some are having a problem when moving from cell tower to cell tower. If you are losing a data signal every once in a while but the 4G/3G icon is still showing in the notification area, you need to do the fallowing.
The Fix: Go into your Mobile Network settings and make sure your device is setup to automatically use GSM/WCDMA. Then click on search for networks and at this point you will see T-Mobile UMTS, T-Mobile GSM and ATT GSW. After they appear click on select automatically. While your at it go ahead and click on data roaming since T-Mobile has contracts with other providers so your able to roam on there towers. Don't worry, you won't be charged for roaming since T-Mobile only charges for international roaming. After all this do a reboot.
Some of you think that there is a problem with your battery if your device is showing your "cell standby" above 30%. This is not a problem. Every time you charge your G2X it will reset usage percentages as you know. Well if you emediatly start using your phone and don't put it down for 2 hours than I promise you that your display will be at the top of the list. Obviously if your device stays off for a little bit and upon waking it you look at your battery statistics your going to see Cell standby and Phone idle at the top since the display was off. If your wandering why Cell Standby is using more juice than WiFi it's because when you turn your display off it automatically sleeps your WiFi.
The percentages in your batter statistics need to add up to 100%-105% and something is going to use more than the rest depending on what your doing with your device after removing it from charge. Ask yourself this. If my G2X is in my pocket for 1 hour after removing it from it's charger. What would I like to see using most of my battery? I can tell you right now. Certainly not your display since it's been off the entire time.
There's only one MyAccount app on the phone. I looked myself in the System/app folder. If you see multiple MyAccounts in a task manager it is just another instance of the same application.
Also there's NOTHING wrong with Wifi Calling or My Account. I have both on and use them extensively. My phone has gone now 26hrs without a reboot or hitch of heavy usage. Wifi works, 3G/4G works perfectly. I don't have any issues right now...until the next reboot
Want to give people another perspective since you don't have to give up MyAccount or Wifi caling to have a usable phone.

Thats WHY you don't have any problems. Because you only have 1 "MyAccount" application. Those of us that had 2 or 3 have the problems. By the way I had 3 and no they weren't showing in task manager. They were all deleted using Root Explorer.
Where did you see them? They were all in system/app??!?
Odd how they could all exist together - were they named differently?

They all existed in the system folder. It seemed like instead of the new versions updating the existing app, they were just creating new files. Your right, it is odd but I can see how that would create a problem.

Hi there
I'm very happy with my 8 month old htc desire but now i have very weird power problem, normally my battery get lost about %1-2 per hour.Two days ago my phone have %60 power in night, when I woke up in the morning my phone was shut down. When I look my log file I see %8-10 power lost per hour at night. Here my to do list to solve problem:
- I did change the rom to another one, problem is there
- I change the battery with my friends htc desire, problem is there (anyway battery is fine with my friends phone)
- I change the Radio file to old one, problem is there
Thats the end my knowledge Any suggestion?
ps. so sorry my poor english i hope you understand
1. What ROM are you using?
2. Are you on wifi at night, or just 3g?
3. Did you install any apps?
4. Check which apps are using the juice. It could be anything.

1. I was try sense 3 coolex, insertcoin, CM7 etc.
2. No connection at all, just phone
3. Yes but not much, titanium backup, market access etc.
4. When i check with system manager there is no one using it
Try sticking to a Gingerbread build and then use the power management to track who's using power. It could be your alarm app pulling wakelocks and switching on the screen. Mine does it often enough.
Another way to save battery is to switch to GSM (PRL) in your *#*#4636#*#* config for phone.
I've been playing with random ROMs recently and have noticed my 'roids acting up.
Upon install of a new kernel/ROM, I bypass the Android/Google services setup pages that show up on initial boot. That gives me the baseline battery drain. It's only when I start to use Google services (like the Market) that it requires me to activate via a Google acct. After the activation, I see the increased battery drain.
Specifically, my battery discharge increases ~2.7x (idle) after I provide my Google account information to access the Market. After I provide the account creds, the GMail app starts working and I receive notifications of new emails.
I've got a theory that the GMail app or another Google app is polling/pulling instead of using the GMail/Google service to push the data and that this is using additional CPU.
Is this theory correct? Has anyone else seen this behavior?
P.S. My service provider, Verizon, uses a NAT (IP 10.xxx). I can't see how any external service can push anything through a NAT unless it has special access through the NAT. Can Google?
P.S.S. I know I can disable background data and auto-sync via Settings--> Accounts & Sync. It seems to fix the problem but I can't pin it down specifically to an app/service.
- Samsung Droid Charge
- Verizon Wireless 4G
- kernel 2.6.32.9 imnuts at virtualbox 1
- Humble 1.51 EE4 Android Froyo (currently)
Any help?
Anyone? I've received no responses and this seems like a question that could affect a large number of Android users.
Hi!
2 things I've done recently seem to have "removed" Google services from my battery usage when idle.
1.Using Titanium Backup/Menu/Market Tools/Market Auto Updates/Deselect all and Save auto Updates configuration.
2.Go Maps/More/Location History and then press the back button and go Menu/Settings /Location reporting/Location Reporting-Do not update your location+disable Location history+sign out of Latitude.The first 2 I've always done but signing out of Latitude seemed to make the difference.(Disable both Check ins).
There are obviously the other usual battery saving settings but these 2 got rid of Google Services.

If you have no other regular apps working the background, google services as gmail or gtalk or contacts sync or calendar will surely increase battery usage, but it should be in the dimension of 2.7 times.
Battery life
Battery now down to 26% from full with 2d 1h 48m on battery.Google services has gone from 80%+ to 2%.Couple of screenshots attached.This Google services thing is not the only answer to battery life problems but there's always something running in the background doing the damage.HTH.
I've noticed that when I've got my EVO active on WiFi there's some significant network traffic between it and Google even when the device seems idle. I also have a cell phone repeater in my basement that shows activity when I so much as hit the power button to unlock the phone. Feels like there's stuff going on with some of those apps that maybe excessive and, yeah, that could impact battery drain. It certainly can't be good for it.
it is indeed.
Launcher?
Changed from TW Launcher to Go at about the same time as fiddling with Google Services above.Could it be that this has also made a difference.It has been a big improvement whatever it is.

Hi folks,
I scoured through all the battery related discussions and wasn't able to find an issue similar to mine, so I hope it's okay to post a new thread on this topic. I have an AT&T (Snapdragon) Galaxy S7 with stock software and about a month and a half ago I started experiencing horrible battery life. I have been desperately trying to figure out what the issue is. At first I thought it was AT&T WiFi calling because it was forcing my WiFi and data connections to toggle back and forth and disabling that did help. However my battery life was still poor and I could never get more than about 10.5 hours of moderate use (see pictures below). Also the phone gets hot randomly (Above 95 Fahrenheit) even when doing minor tasks like browsing through Chrome. Since then I have made the following changes with no noticeable improvement:
Disabled advanced LTE services
Disabled Always on Display
Disabled WiFi and Bluetooth location scanning
Disabled nearby device scanning
Wiped cache multiple times
Temporarily disabled Bluetooth and WiFi to monitor the difference
Used Greenify Aggressive Dose
Disabled all diagnostic reporting
Uninstalled Oculus when that battery issue came up
Side note: I disabled a bunch of bloatware right when I got the phone, not through Package Disabler but through the standard Android disable method
I kept digging and found that my phone doesn't enter dose unless I use Greenify, and even then I don't notice a difference. I then decided to do a hard reset but no luck. Afterwards I used Safe Mode to see if any 3rd party apps were misbehaving, but again the drain was consistent both while idle and while using the phone. Today I installed Wakelock Detector Lite and found that PowerManagerService is keeping my phone from dosing, but from what I've read online it seems that info doesn't really point to a specific app, and it's hard to identify unless I root the phone which I don't want to do.
I am going crazy trying to figure out if this is a software/settings issue or if I should just replace the phone through AT&T and risk getting a defective refurb. Any help would be much appreciated.

Many people have similar problems. One reason was the buggy oculus app (you might wanna disable that when it came pre installed, depending on your CSC).
However the main reason behind the high "android-system" usage is still unclear. Some people experience it, some dont. Some people have better battery results with the firmware from March.
Personally, I believe that it is firmware related. I tried the N7 rom port and did not have a problem at all.
You might wanna wait for the October update that will hit soon and see if this fixes anything.
I notice you have 'media server' showing in your battery stats. My wife had that showing too and also had terrible battery life. Her fix was disabling the auto streaming in her Facebook app which plays videos while you scroll through posts. Now she has great battery life!
I have the Facebook app disabled on my phone altogether. I've also used safe mode where 3rd party apps are disabled but the battery still drains at around 5% an hour while idle.
WiFi calling was draining one members battery, disabled that and everything returned to normal

Nothing has helped so far so I decided to uninstall my apps in batches until battery life improves. I'll then slowly reinstall them one by one until I find the culprit. I'll report back with my findings. Thanks for all the suggestions.
