Anyone know of an application that analyses how much battery apps and services are using and at what rate? Tried looking at "batterydog" and "drain-o-meter", the latter seems to be what I'm looking for, but the output isn't friendly enough for me to interpret.
Does the community have any ideas?
Settings --> About Phone --> Battery Use ???

That is good advice!
I apologise tof9, sorry, you were right. I've looked at the Battery Usage screen a number of times and have never seen marketplace applications listed. I looked again and found Maps at 25%! So Maps is definitely a hog. I would like to get historic analysis of these stats, will look on marketplace now if something exists which does that...
Actually I have all apps there, including xda app

Hi all,
I would like to get the "Smart Actions" app (by Motorola) to my SGS2.
There is an option to run this app on my phone or a similar app?
Thanks ahead.
I believe Tasker might be your best bet. You can find it in the Market.

Yes I saw this app but its interface is a little clumsy and I don't like it.
Thanks anyway, there is something else?

hey i know this an old thread but some users using search to get here might find it usefull
the "llama" app on playstore does wat smartaction does on motorolla. It uses ur cellular positioning to help maintain the profiles meaning less battery drainage
Im looking for a battery monitor app that I have seen posted on here before but can not find it again for the life of me. It shows screen on time and also tells you how much each specific app is draining your battery. +1 to anyone who could help me out. Thanks

Better Battery Stats. Do a search for it here on XDA. I'd post a link for you but I'm mobile and can't get my search to work right. :-(

battery spy is great in my opinion, also better batter stats, as well as battery monitor widget pro is cool. i would choose just one to run, if you don't want a lot of background processes

Default battery app included in GB and ICS does this.
Guys, in sleep mode, even with WiFi & Auto Sync OFF, the battery drains almost 10% through the whole night.
Last night it drained from 99% to 91% through the night without any usage.
Can someone throw some light on this issue?

2 possible scenarios: 1. You just sleep to much 2. You have a app installed (taskmanager battery saver?) that dont let your HOX sleep well

I have installed a battery widget app from the market. Do you think this is what is causing the drain?

If it is just a widget and not a battery saver, then no, i dont think so. Are you sure it is just a widget?
Do you have some other system-tuner-apps installed ?

Yep; all it is, is a battery widget that I installed from the market. Here is the link:

I don't believe so. I am not rooted and running stock everything.
EDIT: Oh, wait a minute. I just went through the list of apps that I've downloaded, and I have an app called Lookout. Here is the link:

BetterBatteryStats is what I use.
My 2 cents.

Hello, betterbatterystats is one of the most useful apps to check what drains your battery.
Basically you only check "Process wakelocks" and see which application "wakes" too often your phone.
Charge your phone and just before going to sleep, remove the charger.
BetterBatteryStats will take this action to start logging wakelocks ( default behaviour )
and in the morning, open BBS and see what process use too many wakelocks.

@DanRZ, eyosen, thanks; however, I've never paid for apps. Isn't there something similar in the market, that does almost the same job as BBS?

Did a quick check but didn't see one.
I strongly believe paying for applications that really add value to your phone to help developers continue their apps. Compared to the time you save by finding out which app is consuming battery the price tag of the applications is next to nothing.
I used betterybatterystats and it showed me that bluetooth was enabled. No where else did it show this, i restarted the phone and its no longer enabled. worth downloading if you have issues with the battery!
Hi guys!
I have been reading the posts here for the past week now and some of the things i read are like disabling some sync to prevent lag in note II.
So i was hoping if anyone could reply to this thread on guiding what should i do when i first get my note II
Thanks!
First thing to do is look at it and Masturbate LOL
Sorry couldnt resist.

You should buy an app called Better Battery Stats from Play Store. It will monitor your battery life so that if you do encounter problems with drain, you can identify which app or process causes it.
I say just use your phone normally at first. I haven't had any lagging with this phone. Then if you do have problems, post on XDA about it. Of course minimizing sync settings is always a good idea. Apps that constantly monitor for updates do cause battery drain and use the cpu. I mean things like facebook, google+ and so on. If you have those set to push updates and alerts to your phone live as they happen, you might experience battery drain and maybe lagging too.

Hi all,.
My Nexus is having wifi drop problem after using it for a while (There is no problem when just boot up) and put it to sleep mode, I have tried different ROM and kernel it still no help, however I use titanium backup to restore apps when switch to different ROM, so I believe it is apps problem. Except guessing, is there any technical way to find out the problem? (i.e. you can use Task Manager and Event Viewer under Windows)
Thanks.
