Any new apps downloaded. Have you tried battery stats to see what is running in the background.

install from store current widget and charge your phone in the meantime put this widget on your screen and wait untill the phone is fully charged( not from the green light but from the widget when its displays 0ma) next download from market battery callibration and calibrate your battery and it should be fine however be carefull with widgets they use a lot of battery comsumption and try reducing your screen number to minimum and turn off ur connections when u dont need them

Widgets and battery Draining
Any widgets drain the battery like the power control one ?
Or active Widgets like Current Widgets or battery status.... etc.
What about shortcuts ?
Thanks.

widgets that updates very often drain the battery the most the one that doesnt updates a lot dont spend a lot if battery

[Q] Does Tapatalk burn battery

Basically what the title says?
I've burned 10 percent every 30 minutes when using tapatalk straight? Does it burn more battery than a web Os or another mobile site?
Thanks in advance

Its a pretty light application. The battery drain comes from your screen being on and phone actively pulling data.

So would you say that mobile web kills more battery than tapatalk?

Maybe slightly because its doing full page loads and tapatalk is just loading some background data to the same view. Its gonna probably be about the same though. Like I said, its not the app you're using, it's the fact that the screen on and its using data that drains the most battery.

tapatalk is a battery saver app. when i used browser, the baterry was dropping very fast. tapatalk use less energy than browser

If you're using any app that uses the radio and you have a weak signal, your battery will drain fast. Try to find a sweet spot where reception is good and your battery will last longer. And lowering screen brightness helps, as mentioned.

Tapatalk was the reason for drain for me about a week ago.
I had my phone on charge overnight. Pulled it out and went to work and about 30 minutes later it was at 94% and I had done nothing. Turned out Tapatalk drained my battery for whatever reason. It has only done that once though so I don't know what happened. Has not done it again since. Usually Tapatalk takes like 2% of my battery for my use.

uncheck tapatalk notification system, done

Tapatalk is a battery drainer in my case, too (SGS2). What's more problematic, once you've launch Tapatalk and use it to visit a forum, only killing it with a task manager would stop it from consuming memory. For whatever reason, Tapatalk is constantly consuming CPU cycles, even when it's in background. The developers are aware of this issue, but so far no fix.

take off tapatalk notifications and enable the dark theme.

It would still keep running in background and continue consume battery unless I shoot its process.

Anyone use battery monitor widget?

I'm having a hard time getting the program to accurately measure battery drain. Been trying the various settings under monitor and calibration.
What settings are you guys using?

Huge battery drain from low-brightness screen?

Hey guys, I'm struggling with a battery drain problem, and it appears to be all coming from the screen. I attached some screenshots. Any ideas?
My brightness is literally almost as low as it can go, so no, I will not turn my brightness down. I do not have automatic brightness.

You might want to try resetting your battery stats to recalibrate your battery, be a good place to start.

That's fairly normal... Screen should usually be about 70% or more of your battery life if everything is normal. 9 hours isn't that bad of battery life, but if you don't feel it's up to par, try one of these-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51743975

Screen using that much battery is a good sign... Everything is relative. The fact that your screen is using more % is a sure sign that all your apps are using very little of the battery, which is *GOOD*!
It's all a way of thinking.
Hope this helps,
