To reproduce this bug/feature you just have to start Core Player or TCPMP close it and measure battery usage, it goes up for 10-15 mAh and never go back to normal after you close it. My guess is that this is due ATI Imageon initialization which is normal but it is not normal to stay after you close player. It would be interesting to see results on Windows Mobile 5 because I'm using latest PV's WM6 ROM.
...wow...
can u try this with coreplayer ?
just finished at gym and noticed mine does this too with core player- not sure if it somehow increased the brightness of my trinity but after a soft reset the mA was still high so i checked brightness and it was on full- even though i never have it more than 50%...... Dropped back to 50% and its back to normal....
Sorry to borrow the thread for a sec.
I see a lot of posts where people post the Battery usage in mAh, I have been trying to search both google and this forum for an application that can do this, please could someone point me in the right direction?

yes, it is the one that can tell you if the battery is ok or drains...
acbPowerMeter, another very nice and simple utility to measure battery usage.

hello everyone,
I had try some screen lock app but i had not found one that I really like.... i tried sensorlock and LockMeLite from geoks100, those are not so bad but i would like somethings else maybe something with gsensor, however olso without gsensor would be great.
thanks for the help and sorry for my bad english
S2U2 does the job for me, very customizable as well. No g-sensor support tho..
Hi, try Throttlelock or S2U2. I use S2U2 and its great!
I would like to use S2U2 but there seems to be comments around its use and battery drain. Is this the case or do you guys have a more positive experience with it?
Cheers
Rich

Don't notice any excessive battery drain here.
tanks guys your apps really rocks.... I have just tried Throttlelock and S2U2... both great, but I think I'm going for S2U2
thanks again

S2U2
The new Version it´s owesome you can even lock your hd now, great. But it seems that the application use to much from the battery again. The Version before didn´t use much voltage.
I tried to find out, how much the application need. I didt use the phone for an almost whole day. I didn´t call and I didn´t used the phone for playing. Only in the following morning it should wake me up. The battery shows me 100% by the beginning. The following morning it shows me remain 40% battery capacity. I´m sorry but that´s too much.
The application self is very very cool and the idear behind is cool as well, but the developer should check the application again, because from 100% Battery to 40% (in between 10 hours) is too much
thx

If I use the version 1.45 the voltage will stays for two or two and a half days without charging. Even than I still have between 45%-35%.
I changed it back to 1.45 and I don´t have any problem. Maybe these developers will see it later and they will change something inside the application.
I like S2U2 combine with geye and the lock application, but it sucks to much voltage from the battery.
Can anyone suggest a good application for draining battery really fast?? I am trying to do some test on some batteries to see how good they are. At the moment, I am just (turning on all bluetooth, backlight to max, and Wifi) running IP TV. Problem is the IP TV I am using (SPB TV) is really suck. Keep switching back to menu after 20-30minutes. Also some channel really lag a lot. Thank you.
take the battery out from the HD and connect it to a 6V FAN or other something.
Record the time and u know the difference
Or is this to simple ??
Here are three:
BatTest
tbattery
BatLog
Just use search and you'll find one as they're all over xda.

Hi there,
when the battery goes below 15% the phone takes some measures in order to keep it lasts as long as possible. Some of them are:
you are not allowed to take photos/videos;
you are not allowed to play videos;
screen brightness is set to the lowest level;
you get a notification sound and a dialog message at 15%, 10% and 5% of the battery.
I am not even sure they are all, I wonder if I could get a complete list of them.
Now the point is: I don't want any of them! I don't care of saving power because I have a spare battery. I want my phone to work at its full potential until its last drop of power.
Honestly I would have expected to have an option to enable/disable this feature from the system settings, but apparently there is not.
I already know there is a mod to disable this saving battery feature for the camera app. My question is: do you know whether there is a specific mod, or a collection of tweaks, which allows one to disable all the battery saving measures for when it goes under 15%?
If you have a spare battery, I would suggest switching it when your first one gets to 15%—therefore avoiding all your problems. I don't believe it's healthy for a battery to sit idly while dead. Leave some juice in it; it'll last longer overall.
easy, use cm7
and post in the right efing section next time
cm7 has the battery warning dialogs as well. please correct me if they can be disabled, i haven't found a way to do so so far

Mmmh, that is a very interesting observation. I will generally follow this advice in the future, thanks.
Although most of the times I won't be draining the battery down to 0%, sometimes I probably will, so I would still like to be able to disable the battery saving measures.

I tried 7.1RC1 but abandoned it for the following reasons:
battery life seriously decreased;
could not disable camera shutter sound;
could not set 3:2 ratio to camera photos;
missed ThinkFree Office app
missed count down and stop watch
missed the wonderful Samsung Smart Alarm app
could not play many video files

... before you start a thread in development, ask yourself what you are developing. If you can't answer, then stop, step away from the post button, and think about where you are posting. Would it be better in General or Q&A, or is some more time with your best friend, search, required?

I apologize for the inconvenience caused. Can it be moved to the proper section?
Actually my true intention, as I was almost sure nobody had done it before, was to start from this question to discuss ways to do what I was asking and then develop a mod to do it.
Hi, for this rom users would you replay about battery life in my case its just going 16h long without any data or gps connections !:crying:
Probably better to post in the appropriate ROM thread so the Dev can help you out.

I forget about that rule. Well, what is your battery usage graph saying is/are the top consumers? Usually it should go display>standby >idle. That's how mine usually is. Followed by my reddit app, xda, and browser. If the phone is awake much more than the screen is on, something is holding a massive wake lock.

This is how the battery look, and thank u for helping ,
Hi All I am Posting my results, I need a few ppl who could help and see if this is going to help everyone or only me
And to the critics, I will be doing a screen on time (SOT, ppl are asking and not getting answered) test, I am as eager to fix this so if you would like me to run anything while the screen is on, please let me know
An hour ago i put brightness at 100 while battery was at 50% been browsing the net with chrome using mobile data and it dropped to about 10%. Much less heat than expected although brightness was limited to 84 at some point. Will do a 50 brightness test tomorrow from full charge but wont be touching the phone much
Steps to Follow to give me info
Hi Guys,
Had a bit of time, this is the info I need, hopefully I will get responses from a view e98x variants, even other LGs would be great but please specify the details of your phone.
Download Battery Doctor from the Play Store google dot com/store/apps/details?id=com.ijinshan.kbatterydoctor_en&hl=en
Get it running , opened, etc and then look at the app usage info (scroll down) for the last 24 hours (seen in screenshot attached)
When opened please send me the screenshot or the the list of draining APPS, I have hidden my top drainer that consumed 98% of my battery in the other attached screenshot. At the time of my screenshot I have not uploaded, it has used 34% of my battery and has been disabed for 19 hours. I cannot yet suggest the name or anyone to do anything with the service yet as I am still attempting to find out what breaks (so far nothing.)
I will send battery updates as far as I can.
Another Test
So the next thing I have done is charge full again, set the brightness to 50% and played Hearthstone for 3 Hours, I am personally pleased with the results as i could not achieve 3 Hours with the Phone before.
i get 3.5-4.5 hours screen from 100%
with [ROM][5.0.2]STOCK LOLLIPOP G.PRO V1.5 of bountyman334
with few modification mostly removing system apps
hello
Can you explain me what should I do to improve the battery life?
I never could have more than two hours of charge with brightness set to 100%.
sorry for my bad english

Can you follow post 2 and send me the details, The item I disabled eventually disabled my MTP and USB Tethering, as it doesnt bother me yet, I am yet to attempt tpo fix it. I would Highly recommend 30 - 60% brightness, anything more seems to not have a major impact on brightness, it just reduces battery life and cause heat, which reduces the maximum charge of the battery in future
here is my screenshot, hope it helps u!

Hi brunosp7, the app I expect to see is not listed, this is a good thing, however viewing the list, it appears that some apps remain open after use. do you have an app that keeps backround apps in check, something like this battery doctor or clean master?

right now I'm not using any app to stop background applications.
by the way, I think the application you want is not listed because the battery doctor app disabled many programs and services the first time I started.
sorry for my bad English.
