Battery status update:
Unplug from PC USB: 7am
Current time: 8:57am
Battery level:76%

Wifi was always on from home until I left and continued with 3G connection automatically. PlurQ, WhatsApp running in background. Started GTalk as I left my apartment to go office.

Started radio at around 7:15am.

I think WhatsApp did take some heavy toll on my phone. Similarly, last night standby, the battery doesn't drain as much before I reinstall WhatsApp.

Go settings - > about phone -> battery use. List down all the usage

Go market download spare parts, choose battery history, list down all fields as well

according to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread...=786509&page=29

seems like you can mix Voodoo + OCLF will double the effect of LagFix. Wonder how true it is

Hi,

Please advise.

CODE
Display: 52%
Cell standby: 26%
Android System: 9%
Android OS: 3%
Phone Idle: 3%
aCircuit Board: 3%
Android Core Apps: 2%
Market: 2% (just opened to download Spare Parts)

Since last unplugged:
Running (100.0%)
Screen on (50.6%)
Wifi On (68.1%)
Wifi Running (67.7%)


As for the lagfix, I gotta hold on first, as I haven't apply the 3-button recovery patch. Then I still haven't fully decide on OCLF or Voodoo, seeing that my battery is crap here.  hmm.gif

Thanks smile.gif

Seems like some bad apps is preventing your phone from Sleeping, so even the screen is off, the phone is still running, hence the 100% on running.

Try to reboot and then let it iddle for half an hour, check the running again.

how to identify if it is AP or Original? What size are you referring to? Internal is 8GB
*
Original means phones from Official distributor in Malaysia.

Ap means phone from other country.

8GB, Malaysia don't sell 8GB so for sure your phone is AP set.

What's the price you got it for?

*
Hmm yea US don't have I9000,

Disable just by creatin new folder "disable lagfix" in sd card then can flash to new firmware right away??
*
Apply you apply voodoo, it will auto create a folder named "voodoo" in your INTERNAL SD.

So just create a folder name "disable lagfix" inside "voodoo" means = /sd/voodoo/disable lagfix

Then reboot, you will hear a female voice said disable lagfix, leave it for 5 to 10 minutes. just hook it to your charger and leave it until its done

jpk 2.2 doc's (from xda) superslim firmware, gmail & twitter (updated hourly),
internet usage (mainly checking twitter links etc) for about 1 hour throughout the day.
on DiGi's network. Without using JuiceDefender, i'd never last the day.
and i dont even use this device for many calls/sms as it's my second device.

I have tried jp4/jp8/jph - all with similar results. coming from an iphone - i would have thought the battery life would be about the same. and i think the iphone had more apps which pulled data.

I want what mengsuan gets - my usage is similar too +/-. i'd even settle for 30% at the end of the day. arghhhh!!!

Perhaps somewhere down the flashing route, the modem/pda/csc combination is screwing up the battery life which is why i wanted to know mengsuan's firmware (preferably the specific modem/pda/csc files if not standard).

Go market download "spare parts", then click Battery History on it, check the field "Running" is it 100%? If is 100% must be some bad apps preventing your phone from sleeping, bad apps i had encounter is "tango"

If is not 100%, try switching from 3G to 2G, go Settings - > wireless and network -> Mobile Networks - > Network Mode -> Change to GSM ONLY

by switching to 2G can save about 50% of battery from my experience.

I'm using 2G, sync Exchange, Gmail, whatsapp, facebook, gtalk all on the same time, never turn off them. If normal usage i can have 50%+ during night time, heavy usage then around 20 to 30 by midnight.

thanks will try that. i have been using 2G when idle - switching to 3G when I am on the internet only - it did improve a little but not tremendously.
so what firmware are you on?

I'm on JM7 + stock JM8 Voodoo kernel, + autokiller in strict settings.

And Don't use any task manager other than autokiller or minfree manager

U can get those cable in tesco.. very cheap.
Dude, imho, i used most GPS platform... in the end. Garmin still the best and user friendly as well. I think Garmin for Asus (which is a android device) does come with Garmin as reported in the previous thread by other. So i guess there might be a chance available in other Android, just a matter of demand/market only.

Hopefully some1 from XDA manage to extract the garmin from A10 then port to All other andriod devices! biggrin.gif
