Thanks and regards

Heating - I've had no problems whatsoever. I don't usually play games on it but before I have played games such as gta San Andreas and I gotta admit it did get a little bit hot but nothing I was worried about.
Battery - the most I got out of it is around 5 maximum 6h of screen on time. However I've seen people with 8/9h of screen on time which is just godly .. you have to play with it and find what suits you best. I usually charge my phone every two days

I've went as far as getting 10 hrs of sot this phone truely is the best phone I ever had and with normal /heavy use this phone can last a full day maybe more I freakin love it

Juice defender on Desire S

Anyone using this on a Desire S think that it does make much of a difference to the battery?

I use Tasker which can do everything juice defender does and more, but yes, it does help if your phone goes into airplane mode over night, and auto switch off wifi when you leave home.

I bought tasker after reading wnp_79's description of it within his guide and have never regretted spending the money for a minute!
wnp_79 and ben_pyett ,you've convinced me ,gonna get Tasker
I'm using a free version, and it definetly improves battery life
Am using the ultimate version and not much difference

Yes but not a huge amount. I found I used 20-30% battery per day with it turned on so I saved maybe 10%.

Tasker also adds all the additional automation functionally, saving you tine and effort which is far more important

Sure, it probably won't help with battery life much though.

I disagree, tasker automates my use of my radios and sync' ing depending on location, time and date (thanks wnp_79), so it will not just save you some battery but also data which is just as important if you're on a limited data plan.

K Guys Have a bit of OS knowledge and stuff...
So all I can say juice defender or tasker won't save battery...they would just automate things better...
So if you shut wifi evrytime you finish with its use and blah blah other such things...
It won't help a bit...
Else if you forget and stuff...then you would see improvement...
Thats the fact...So if you use your cell efficiently you won't need it...

We're clearly not all as perfect as you in which case it will save battery,.I agree efficient use will get the same but is much harder

I would recommend not using cymbaline right now, because of the bln it will give you bad battery life. Not sure if there's a version without it or not though.

He's also using the old version of cymbaline. Haven't tried the new one myself, but the one you're using smoked my battery too. Even with uv and uc to 1242.

when you say "screen on" time... it means you are using your phone with screen on (surfing, txting, etc.). 9 hours screen on time is a miracle on this phone. lol

I'm not looking to clog the thread with a back and forth but there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY you got 9hrs screen on. It is kind of ironic how u just "deleted" those screenshots recently. Btw if they are on threads then they are still there. I would love to see the pics! Battery cycle in between <3
Have a nice day

No apologies will be given haha. U can't see if there were cycles or not in this. I get about 5 hrs screen on so your not getting almost double. Listen, your not gonna change my mind and those pics don't really prove anything. I don't see the history details pic accompanying the various screen times so don't jump for joy and expect an apology. Its not happening
If this truly is your battery life then good for you, but I'm not gonna change my mind.

Dude, just match up the percentages shown in each pair of pictures. 88%, 68%, 77%. Every two pics go together. And look at the graph and it only shows a downward slope. What don't you get here?

Im program that doesn't suck on battery?

Do people just not use im on phone because all the apps kill the battery super fast or is there a good one that doesn't?

I used AIM back on my OG droid days, but since getting older i don't bother with them. I know a lot of people use google talk, but other than that, i can't comment on the battery life.

All dependant on the app you use, look through the store to see which ones are good and which are not. If an app has a battery drain issue, most likely its all in he reviews. I really couldn't comment seeing as I don't use an IM program myself

Those that tested touted better battery life and snappier performance over regular CleanROM. All of the background stuff is gone.
Oh I'm taking it for a spin. More than half way downloaded gogo. Battery life isn't much of a concern for me now that I have my drain fixed. I am around a charger most of the time. Performance is what I'm all about

What is sad is how Android has grown. I remember back in the day I could do a 250 Meg ROM (Froyo).
Now 1.5Gig is pretty standard.
