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

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.

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?

Yeah man no problem. I'm not aware of anything that constantly runs in the background. I used to use this program all the time on my old wing, so I'm used to running it several times a day. If anyone knows of anything out there, I'd love to know.
Try HTC Addicts cleanRAM, you can set it to clean every so much hours.

I'm not sure wether this is the newest version...
Really thanks a lot! This app cleans my RAM down to 60% usage every 3 hours now! That's the best result i had ever!
Even after a Soft Reset i have about 51%, so everyone looking for a good cleaner, take this one
Wow i just used htc addicts clean ram and it took me from 57% used to 48% I did the level 3 cleaning.
Is it possible for someone to explain why it is that your phone slowly fills up the ram with normal usage and you have to do this?
Also after a soft reset it uses like 54% how did it get it down to 48%?
Thanks

The application does the following:
1. When your phone receives a notification, it switches the screen on and displays a notification. The notification bounces around every 3 seconds. This will guarantee using different LEDs so that the same ones won't be burned out.
2. You can customize whether to have a dot or an icon for each type of supported notification. Users may also customize the colors of these icons/dots.
3. NoLED will work with SMS/MMS, Gtalk, Gmail, Missed calls, Voicemail, Calendar and K-9 (email client) without any additional permissions. Any other 3rd party software (e.g. Whatsapp, Email app, Yahoo Mail and Hotmail) will need to be checked under Monitored Apps and will require granting Accessibility rights to NoLED.
4. The app runs as a service, after installing, you have two ways to activate the app. (a) by restarting. (b) by loading the widget into your home screen and clicking on it.
5. To get rid of the notification screen, you may use the home or the back key. You can enable dismissal via more keys in the Miscellaneous submenu. Once your notifications are dismissed, all notifications disappear and will not come back up.
I have also logged the touch drivers and saw that although I'm displaying a black screen and setting flags to not respond to touch messages, android is still receiving touch messages when you touch any spot on the screen. This, I imagine, consumes resources! So I disabled the touch drivers when the black screen is active. Dismissing the notifications should reactive the touch drivers. If your screen is unresponsive to touch even after the notification screen is dismissed, a simple restart should take care of it. There is also an option to completely disable that feature. The touch drivers are only disabled on the Samsung Galaxy S variants, all other devices are still receptive to touch events.
Now the touchscreen drivers were a lot easier to mess around with. The sourcecode given by samsung helped me achieve the activation/deactivation of the screen. Things are not the same with the capacitive buttons. You'll notice that when the black screen is on, if you touch any of the soft buttons, they'll light up (although am suppressing them programatically). On some other devices like the Nexus S, these backlights cannot be switched off once the screen is turned on programatically. This is a bug from Google and more info is in the FAQ.

When I used NoLED with the NS it was kind of tough on the battery. That being said, this version has been updated from the one I used so really there is only one way to find out.
I've been using NoLED since I got my s2 nearly 2 months ago. I've never had a problem and my battery life is fine, usually over 50% after a full days usage (which for me is moderate). Love it!
BTW I run cognition ROM so that helps with the battery life.
i want that ringtone

This will cost alot of your battery. If you receive a message and noled stay on like for 1 hour, i believe you lose more then 10% per hour.
I'll will turn my screen on from time to time, thats much better for the battery

Correct, it drains like crazy. Only way to minimize the drain is to check the phone what message/call you just missed soon after it occured. When you leave it with a NoLED notification active there's a lot of drain.
So it's only handy for people who check their phones regularly.
Been using NoLED for a long time as well. Haven't noticed any excessive drain. Using official KF3 (NEE) and it lasts for two days easily with my standard use and NoLED active.
I've used NoLED on my previous phone (Samsung Galaxy Spica), and I did notice extra battery drain.
For me this is not really an alternative to BLN. OK, it does show notifications when your screen would normally be off, but NoLED still activates the whole screen, whereas BLN only lights up the 'buttons' below the screen. Somehow this has to be more energy consuming.
My HTC Desire HD is draining battery over night and being very hot in the morning while battery only remaining under 5% even if it was on 100% at night!
It remains like 10% ~ 15% while i put on the airplane mode.
I have installed Jelly Time by RandomBlame R30
juice defender, advanced task killer, and some more apps to avoid battery draining!
UPDATE: I have downgraded my phone to ICS Sabsa Prime
removed advanced task killer because a fellow member suggested me to... still facing the problem!
Screen shots are added in this thread so that you guys can have a better idea of my problem.
UPDATE: I have added some more screen shots of better battery status as suggested.
Please help me out here... any help in this regard will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Can we have a list of the apps you are using to save battery?
And uninstall Advanced Task Manager. Task managers do more bad than good.

uninstall advance task manager and download Battery Calibration from Play Store. Follow the instructions in that app and it may solve your problem

More specifically, screenshots of kernel wake locks, partial wake locks (already there), and alarms. Select them from the top drop down box.
To use BBS: use it to diagnose what is keeping your phone from battery saving "deep sleep" mode. For example: you see Starting Alert Services in your partial wake locks? It's locking your phone awake more than it should. So what's going on with the app that uses it, which appears to be Contacts? Do you have apps installed or something running that uses it disproportionately?

Sir, i will upload more screen shots here that you asked for... thanks for all your help, can you/any one please suggest best rom to same battery?
I personally feel that choosing a ROM for battery life is not the most efficient method. There are many things that affect battery drain to a significant degree: backlight, GPS, WiFi, alarms, wakelocks, etc. I have not found that ROM choice affects battery drain nearly as much as other things (unless, of course, you're using a highly experimental or brand new ROM).
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%

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
