Battery consumption depends on what voltages you run. The lower the better, but not all A8 Cortexes can handle lower then normal voltages by too wide a difference.

It all depends on your N900, mine runs fine on Ideal voltages at 850, others even at 1ghz. Yours might not. That's just how it is.

Oh, and whatever you set, A8s idles at zero or something near that. It's the voltage settings plus all the other crap we're running that is sucking up juice.

IINM anyway. Currently running Starving settings at 250-600 as default, with shortcuts set to change it to Ideal 500-850 if I need it, on Titan's version 33 kernel. Battery life is slightly better, but the one app that really makes any real difference in battery life is actually Autodisconnect IMHO.

Hey,what is a stable app for MMS?

Thanks smile.gif

fMMS is the more mature app, though I've yet to successfully send out any MMSes. It accepts fine though.

There's also MMS to eMail, which according to the Maxis web is even cheaper if you're from different Telcos. I wonder if the opposite is true.

Autodiscon is from extras-devel, once installed, find in Settings under Network.

Mine is set by default, except I dont let it monitor Wlan, or to disconnect even if it detects OpenVPN, SSH etc. I also have the beta switch to 3G enabled.

yes to preserve battery this is a niche tool.

Anyway, the start of day one of my first weekend back to KL sans my lappie. Trying to see if mobile computing has reached the point where I my lappie has become less of neccessity.

And if the N900 is stable enough for extended laptop replacement on the run.

Call it the Mobilility Evaluation project, phase 1.

Btw, my Sialcom BB GPRS/EDGE is acting up in my area right now. 3G's fine but I have limited battery life, you know. Anyone using 2G in KL, ok ah or its another one of their extended downtimes?

EDIT: Annnnnd, now it's okay pulak. Aiseh. Connect through 3G, then switch to 2G. Hmmmmm...

The updates in leaked PR1.2 is disappointing, hope they actual PR1.2 is a MAJOR difference. And yes, you NOT only required to re-install eveything, you need to re-DOWNLOAD everything; Unless you keep the installation files, actually they should give the option to save the installation files. Plus, the App Manager is resource heavy, when it's running, better to let it finish its job first. Hope they're able to improve on that.

I've never experience the wifi batt drain bug honestly. Maybe there's something you installed?

They need more stable hildon-desktop and all the core processes, better memory management for these processes so it doesn't hang or stop responding to ensure smoothness.

Anyway, Android 2.2 Froyo update list looks extremely promising, with Flash 10.1 and claimed improvements of up to 5X and it's coming in June???. The Droid/Milestone running 2.1 is already very smooth. Nokia has lotsa catch-up to do, and they should pay more attention to N900 as I see them concerntrates a lot on MeeGo project, and also Symbian^3. N900 is sort of like an unfinished product, they should first emphasize on it first, but seems to me, they're preparing for MeeGo device to replace this N900 and save all the hassle. Hope they can really put more attention on N900. It's a superb device but with very poor support and updates from Nokia, the community support is far far better.
