Battery power while watching movie - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

I'm going on an eleven hour flight at the end of the week. I was wondering how long I could watch movies in Flight modus.
Is there something I could do to save power with my TP2.
If I couldn't watch a least one movie, what is a cheap solution to give my TP2 more power? (like an extended battery or something)

get an external USB lithium ion battery, or make your own from a dealextreme.com psp one. you could buy the HTC one, if you have the income of a small democratic nation.

Or you could look into getting yourself a Philips Power2Go SCE4430 or SCE7640 . I would guess that the battery would drain pretty fast when watching movies..

small democratic nation like australia..? or..?

Well, I frequently watch some episodes of my favorite series on my TP2 and the battery lasts long enough to watch at least 3-4 (30 - 40 minutes each) of them.
Means: You should be able to watch a movie on your device easily.

Australia is no longer democratic. They took everyone's guns away in the 1990's. There is no democracy with a dis-armed populace.

Last night I tested the TP2 battery with a movie. After 1.5 hour only 25% of the battery was gone. Thats amazing! This means I can easily watch one movie and maybe more (or some TVserie episodes).
This was in flightmodus btw, so that should do the trick!
No need of an extra battery. Costs a lot of money and I only use it in planes..... a great way of flushing money down the toilet .

Similar story with me. I recently watched a 1.5 hour film and used 30% battery, but I wasn't in flight mode. I was impressed.
You should easily get 2 good length movies out of it

There's no democracy with democracy. As soon as people realize they can vote themselves someone else's money the death spiral begins.

I change battery every ~3 hours of movie (or every second movie) - but it was not becuase it was empty, just becuase I had 5 batteries with me, and wanted to let them be a little charged when done -. (good storage charge is at 50% capacity)

argh batteries and smartphones

well i was talked into a desire by a friend, really impressed with evertying apart from battery life, currently i have 3 batteries that i keep charged so while im out and about i have spares, but its a bit of a pain swapping them constantly plus the matter of charging, so im looking for a new bigger better battery, does anyone know of a good bigger battery?
Any help would be great, thanks in advance..

There are no extended batteries that produce the same result as 3 stock batteries combined. Or even 2 combined. Best performence I've seen is a <50% increase in battery life (iirc). Your best bet is sticking with the 3 spare ones and swapping them out when they are empty. Extended batteries aren't particularly cheap either. You might also wanna try to change some settings that increase battery life, underclock your phone, or even install a custom ROM. Sense has been known to suck quite a bit of battery compared to stock Android ROMs.

Ouch! You have really poor battery life!
I consider myself a reasonably heavy user, and I get get 30+ hours from my stock battery.
The problem with spare batteries is always going to be that you have to switch the phone off to change them - this is a pain.
When I travel, I use a Veho pebble which can charge my Desire around 3 times.
It's small enough and light enough that I can carry it around with me, and I can plug it into the phone and charge it whilst they are both in a jacket pocket.

Not playing a game for 5 hours for starters!
I use my phone for phone calls, web browsing, apps, and an hour or two of video a day, and I regularly chalk up 30+ hours. The only concession I make to battery life is I switch the phone to airplane mode overnight.

i can easly send 150+ sms a day and maybe 2hrs of calls, i dont put my device in aeroplane mode over nite but i only usually loose 2-5% so im not bothered, anyways if i could get 30 hrs out of my stock battery i wouldnt of paid nearly £90 for my mugen power battery lol
If I don't use my Phone (it is also undervolted, underclocked and switches from 3G to 2G automatically if not in use for more than 10 minutes), it lasts around 3 days max (WiFi off). Normally it lasts 2 days with me phoning, writing messages, surfing a bit and having WiFi on in background.
But of course, if I use it excessively, it lasts only around a "workday".
well thanks for all the replies, cant find anything that dont make my phone look stupid so im going to stick with having spare batteries, everything i do there is no way i can get mine to last even a full day, so maybe i just use my phone too much. haha

Seido 3000mAh battery?

I'm wanting to get one, but I can't find ANY reviews online for it. Has anyone used it before?
Anyone at all?
3000mAh is scam.......should be good for about 2400 max
Had one for about 2 months now. I get about 24 hours of very heavy usage. Internet, numerous phone calls, texts, slingbox over 3G, and using power amp for hours on end will usually have me recharging after 24 hours. I could probably use it longer, but I hate to run my battery all the way down.

I have been considering an extended battery myself, but it seems all the higher quality brands (Japanese cells) are over $50. Not sure if I can justify such an expense over just having another regular battery to swap on the go.
If anyone finds a good deal on the brand name one, drop us a link.

I get about 40 to 48 hours with normal usage (few calls, data on, 3g on, push email, etc) I also have an ass of widgets on my homescreens that automatically update such as beautiful widgets, pure calendar, feedr, facebook, etc. Best phone accessory I have ever purchased.

Is this one that sticks out the back of the phone and needs a custom back cover so none of the regular cases work and your phone is twice as thick as stock??

Most extended batteries are like that.
Fortunately, most people who buy extended batteries don't care how it looks, don't buy custom cases to begin with, and don't care about thickness.
I need more battery life. Running Bionix 1.3 right now, and I'm constantly using my phone from about 6AM to 10PM every day with no time to charge it in between, and it's typically near the 5% mark by the end of the day, which I can't risk for too much longer.
Unless you are gaming just get an extra 1650 mah battery it is much more convenient. i had one but the weight and bulkiness was not worth to me. They do give a decent amount of use though.....

My friend has one for his Vibrant, and it might look bulky, but good god it can live long, I moderately use mine and it dies, he's using his the ENTIRE day and he's still got 35% of his battery left at the end of the school day...

Yeaaah, I use mine a lot and it tends to die by 10 now, which means I"m getting about 16 hours of battery life. By all accounts, that's a good number, but it's just flat out not enough.
accessory geeks 3000mah
ag 3000mah gives me about 80% left after a 2 1/2 hours phone call which is pretty darn good, wich the phone call was with the screen off the whole time.

I think his answer was perfect. There's good battery and bad battery, it's as simple as that. X hours of playing/watching X by somebody tells me nothing about a gazillion other factors playing a role (or not). This tab has a not so good battery but it isn't terrible either.

I think your right i was going for longer battery life in the end. the yoga suppose to get 10 hr of video time or more bet gamming probally be 6-8 hour range of midlle of the road games.
I use it for reading, web browsing, email and such. The occasional puzzle game or chess. I'm getting about 3 days out of it. So it's not great but as I use it at home and the charger is always close by, screen resolution was the more important point for me. Before I had the yoga for about 2 weeks before exchanging it for the g pad. The yogas battery life was just amazing compared to the g pad, but the screen has 100 ppi less, which made reading really straining to the eyes in my case. Just to give one of hopefully many examples that can help you decide based on your own usage patterns.

I've rooted and stuck Madhi rom (4.4.2) on mine. Using it for nearly a week now, but the battery isn't brilliant. Had a China 8" tab before which also wasn't good with battery (and an awful ppi for that matter).
Roughly my usage is similar, or just a bit better than erwaso's. I get a bit more on certain things like video playback as I've optimised the Build.prop to save on battery. Also I've used an app to stop all major wakelocks and throttled the cpus to run slightly lower clock speed and on demand.
Personally I don't like any Apple products, but you can't beat there tablets for battery life; Android is too power hungry!

Yea, i don't read i never learned lol no i don't read anything other than an article on the web. I wanted it for movies and light gaming via fpse and other emulator's so the yoga's long battery life was what i was going for. The toshiba has slightly better cpu and screen but the battery life reports on review varies alot 200 250 was my price range also considering the nook hd plus get decent battery life on the reviews and has full hd screen. I
'm leaning towards that 180 i can pick it up tomorrow. The other's i have to order online. Ty for your feedback.
I also saw microsoft store has dell venue 8 pro on sale for 230 it can play older pc games like cod modern warfare and such it get 8hr battery life. Its the last tablet for me for awhile my wifes cutting me off bounced around tablet to tablet and phone to phone. lol so i'm sure as soon i buy 1 I'm going to wish i would bought a different 1 lol

Battery drain

Hi, so basically I wanted to know how fact peoples' battery drains depending on the app. My brightness is on 50% with adjustment off. When I am using twitter it goes down by 1% in about 10-12minutes. But when I use Facebook or LectureNotes (main worry) its about 4 or 5 % per minute. Could someone do a test using these app and compare? All the things like GPS, blutetooth are off, wifi always on.
@kamilsss: You can see battery usage in the `battery´ section of your device's system settings.
I know you can, my concern is that my battery seems to be draining a little bit quicker than it should be when I compare it to others' notes

I got mine about then also and just replaced the battery, it lasts alot longer now. I charged mine over 900 times. The only reason I know cause of a app that keeps count of how many times the battery is charged, the spen is taken out and headphones plugged in plus some other things. I went for a little bit expensive battery but totally worth it. I don't even have to charge the battery everyday like I had to before replacing it.

it was pretty easy. I did have to open it 2 more times to get it right but it was my fault. The first time a cable was loose and second time I didn't pop the power button in right so I couldn't turn off. Its all good now and definitely worth buying. It was a bit expensive but I didn't want a chance of getting a bootleg cheap one. I got it from new power 99. It came with all the tools and instructions on a DVD but I used you tube.

Hi guys, is this battery the best and highest quality for our tablet?
What are your experiences ... lasts the same as the official when it is new or it is a minor battery?
In Amazon it costs 67 euros, it's a lot of money but maybe it's a good investment. Can you please help me?

i personally would not go for 99power, i heard it's hit and miss plus it not true 4900 milliamp battery they supply.. You got two options option 1) Get a power bank i picked up a Belkin 15000 milliamp power bank easy 2 full chargers for Tab S 8.4 it’s a bit pricey tough, you can get a Anker PowerCore 20100 more capacity for less price..
2nd options is look on eBay get a smashed Tab S 8.4, ask seller how old it is. Also how much use. You might get lucky as some user are real light user rip the battery out and install it.. That’s how i would go about it getting a battery for the Tab S 8.4. Never would I purchase third party garbage no offence TO ANYONE as my Tab S 8.4 SM-T705 is over 4 years old. I’ve got over 3500 chargers dischargers if I wasn’t a heavy user it would easily stay on standby for 3+ days easy. But since I use for everything for example movies YouTube background playback while web browsing Bluetooth music streaming browsing ebaying amazon etc. battery last about 3 to 4 hours.
No third party battery would last over 3 hours 4 years down the road that’s a fact mate these Samsung apple Sony spend millions on r&d that’s why they am so good! Anyway that's my two cent!

Thanks for answering so widely.
What do you think of these consumptions with these uses
Youtube from 100% to 0% manual brightness 50% = 5 hours screen
Movies downloaded using Mx Player from 100% to 0% = 9.30 hours screen
100% to 0% using Netflix = 8 hours of screen
Off line movies 10% x hour
Netflix 12% x hour and Youtube 20% x hour
With a mixed use I get between 6 and 7 hours of screen.
What surprises me the most is how much Youtube consumes at the rate of that 20% x hour .... It may not be necessary to change the battery but as I am the new owner, I do not know if these consumptions are good or not ...

Are you rooted? Mate your stats I’m reading you have a brilliant battery. i can remember when i had it first I’ve was getting 12+ ish hours YouTube manual brightness 30% but you have to factor in network conditions as 4G LTE use much more power than HSDPA+ plus I don’t use Wi-Fi.
I have unlimited data plan, so i couldn’t tell you Wi-Fi playback times, ive never used Wi-Fi since I purchased it. Been pure mobile network, I do believe Wi-Fi will give you more battery time if you put in flight mode and just turn on Wi-Fi. My network is awesome 70+ meg download 40+ upload if in the right spot..
Mate your battery is fine easy good few years before you see some real battery drops but that’s if you’re a super heavy user moderate use easy 3+ years before serious battery drops like me..
I can remember YouTube background playing all night sometime screen would stay on other times off I can remember if I hadn’t slept for good few days I catch up with my sleep YouTube would be playing all night 13+ hour straight I would wake up still have around 20+ percent battery left of a single charge..
If you’re rooted you can check discharges and charges via PHONE INFO App play store android robot green colour he is that’s the icon for the app.

I'm not root and the tablet is second-hand. He has 2 and a half long years, that's what his previous owner told me. I think it really is 3 years ... The use that gave that person was YouTube and some series or movie and did not use it every day, hence it is still a consistent battery.
The other day I was watching 2 movies and a chapter of netflix off line, total 5 hours of screen at 50% ... This left me astonished and especially the little expense of mx player, 10% every 1h 5 m. I remember that a movie consumed me 20% x 2 hours 15 minutes, very well. What I do not understand is the reason why YouTube consumes so much, 20% an hour. I use Youtube vanced, og Youtube and the 2 consume the same, the official also but I have it frozen. Yesterday
I installed disable package pro and I have 150 frozen apps, all of Samsung dead ... Use nova launcher and few apps, about 30 as much. I also use greenify to sleep apps outside the playstore that I prefer not to run in 2 plane, typical of series, sports and so on. At rest my deep sleep is perfect, 99% in airplane mode and with 97% wifi, also excellent and does not consume more than 2% every 24 hours of sleep. I have read a lot about the consumption of this fantastic tablet and the truth is that I am very happy if I use it for multimedia, but if you use social networks and so on, the battery goes down very fast, I guess it is due to lack of software optimization, none of the games. A great improvement and I've finally stopped having restarts or flashes on the screen using high performance mode, saving mode all right but the tablet had lag with the savings ... It has been freezing all that from Samsung and goodbye to the restarts so annoying .... Do you know that every time I opened YouTube the tablet was meeting and the screen was blinking? I think many say that it is a bad battery but in my situation it has been a software issue ... hmmm touchwiz is a burden! ...
Then I think I'm going to stay still with the theme of the battery and according to what you have explained to me I can be very calm and happy because to watch movies off line and series of netflix or amazon video gives me many hours and that is the main reason for my purchase, its fantastic amoled screen falls in love. I had a Huawei M3 but its ips screen to see dark media of the style terror, intrigue and so on was somewhat poor compared to the amoled ... I also want to emphasize that I use a mod version of netflix since the officer consumes me a lot, double to chapter and the same with Amazon video, I use an app from 2 years ago, the latest version consumes 25% at screen time, crazy ... Then the issue is clear, install apps from the marshmallow era, consume less and are adapted for android 6. Then you think my battery is still good today?
PS
To put twrp is easy. How, through Odin? I would like to have the possibility if I ever need a higher version of MM, I think there is an Oreo rom ... The idea is to have twrp without root to leave it like that but to be able to flash in the future

That's what I did to save my T800. The parts for the T800, like the mainboard, were _ridiculously_ expensive, but then I found another one with a broken screen on ebay for the price of a mainboard, and it served as a donor for the mainboard, battery, and other parts. We'll see how long the donor battery lasts..

Are you rooted ? You can check your battery charge count via Phone INFO app, from play store.. Anything under 200 charge discharge cycle is a excellent battery...

That`s the first app i tried.
I cannot see battery cycle count under usage history, it only shows headset connector count and charger connector count and i am rooted and i have granted all permissions it has asked for.
According to the app download page on google play the details below should show but they all dont.
▪ USAGE HISTORY:
- Headset Connect Counter
- Charger Connect Counter
- S Pen Detach Counter - MISSING
- Battery Discharge Cycles - MISSING
- Battery Health - MISSING

Thanks anyway.

Hi guys,
I bought this Newpower99 battery and I must admit that it is a very good battery.
In my first load cycle using the tablet to watch Youtube, online series, Netflix, Amazon video and surfing with very good brightness to enjoy this magnificent screen amoled, I got 8 hours of screen with 22% still battery. I am very happy with this duration and also say that the blinks and restarts have disappeared. Without a doubt it is an excellent battery, despite costing 50 euros is still a smart purchase. The others that are for sale in EBay cheaper, do not deserve any investment
This is what I can tell you today, later with the passage of the months, I will give more information.

I can definitely confirm that this Newpower 99 is an excellent battery and that its price, even being high, is a safe investment. This consumption is all multimedia, Netflix, droid series, etc. Half off line, half on line. Never in saving mode and with good brightness
