Hey all, thanks to the dark lestat for his incredible kitchen rom for this lg thrill. I charged my lg thrill yesterday in the morning and then when I got home it was hot. Ever since that my battery life has been going down like mad fast so I'm wondering is my battery dead? I charged it using a different charger which I shouldn't have but it's a ipod wall plug which should have stopped charging if it's full. As soon as I found out it was hot I turned it off immediately and let it cool.
I turned it on from 6pm to now and the battery is at 49% where as before it was like maybe 85% left. I have wifi on constantly, and the live wallpaper but it shouldn't be down that fast. I also have facebook notification on but I don't use the phone at all, just standby mode. Could my battery be "dead" ?
when i was dawnlodeng some game from gameloft i went away some time and came back to find the battry so hot and masseg on the phone says( battry overheted and chareg disconect) so i unblgd the battry for 3-4h and put it back and i feel like my battry empty fast>>>without using it work like 24h (syngmail facbook notf. on and life wall)but if i just use the music player for 2h it become(from 100 to 66),a frind of mine told me that it is battry normal to empty fast using wifi or 3d>>>like iphone when i use wifi it empty fast.
what u think

Is there anyone else here that experience that the batterytime is max 3-4 hours standby?
No, battery time is more than great. I got my X1 last monday and the first three times I charged the battery to full and then let the X1 with full screen light on. This lastet more than six hours!!! Then the X1 shut off itself. The same at the second charging zyklus. Again more than 6 hours of best screen-light before switching off in cause of less power.
This is the best result I evere had at a PPC
guess you'd have to replace your battery. seems to be buggy.
my battery lasts about 6h+ of video playback (700mb, avi, dvdrip)

Wow,
I'm using Sync and wifi. can i't be because?
I got 4-5 hrs with wifi and bluetooth while streaming with the screen on max brightness. I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT!!!
It's Media Panel
Have you launched the Media Panel?
I noticed that if I used the Media Panel for music playback
the back/battery was getting VERY hot. Not good for its
lifetime . So this Panel consumes a lot of power. I guess
the Xperia developers got some work to do.
Also Wifi needs lot of battery power.
Using both about 4 hours are thinkable.

No, not mediapanel.
Well, i test without Synk and Wifi tomorrow.
That's it. It's Wifi. Having Wifi turned on all the time you
will get these results. It's one of the most battery intense
functions. Only turn it on if you need it. For example,
notebooks with much larger batteries will have much less
runtime (bad english, I know ).
Sync isn't responsible for this. I have an hosting exchange
server running but I didn't notice any effect on the battery.
Hope, I could help.

im able to switch my wifi on for 3 hours then music for another 2 hours and 1 and a half hour calls still manage to have 3 bars left on my phone whats wrong with yours?
the battery on the x1 is insanly good compared to the diamond.
(however, when i was charging it yesterday there was somekind of bug that drained the battery when the charger was plugged in, it did not detect the charger after a while, havent checked what it could be, had msn/skype/wifi and the arc slider open )
edit: softreset solved that problem
the battery of X1 is working fine, 10 hours continues use time (for internet + MSN)
WiFi is something that should be only turned on when you are using it. Same goes with BT too infact.
so my accu holds approx. 1 day with music, Games, wifi, video, but I think the accu is already become better as in start in the normal one use he holds 2.5 days
Wow, 8-10 hours without Wlan!
on 2g i got msn/skype running from morning to bedtime, 3pushmail accounts and normal usage, 2bars left of battery at bedtime so its good.
But. i get strange problems when charging the battery and the phone is on. it seams like when the battery is fully charged, it starts to discharge if i not plug out the charger, this morning when i woke up the phone was off but fully charged, it could mean that the battery was charged, then discharged and shut off, then charged again.
a normal businessday: 230 min phone, 30 mails, 15 SMS, bit Internet ....and the Battery is still alive....it´s good enough for me )

it,s the poor reception that drains the battery,seeking for a signal most of the time..
Since having the X1... Now 1 week... I would have to say its the best battery life on a WM device I have used...
I get approx 2days of usage without charging... which I think is good.
Cheers
I heve my phone checking for new mail every 5 minutes. Does this consume a lot of battery or is it negligible?

yes it consume a lot of battery, more on 3g than on 2g, if you think its a problem. just increase the time to 30min or so.
Ok i am new here to windows mobile this forum and the x1 as i only have it for about 3 days. But my question is, is it normal that it uses 57% ram when idle? And is the battery supposed to be empty at the end of the day (i leave it charging when i go to sleep)? I got the Hard-spl and Touch-IT v4.5 landscape installed.
The ram is normal for the rom, but the batt life aint.
What is a normal battery life then?

Depends on what you're doing with your phone.
The battery life can vary between a few hours (full usage of WiFi and/or Bluetooth and MP3) to 10+ days (most time in standby).
I have 4 days with average usage.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=495841
I charge it each day.Nomatter it's 90% or 30%.
I never now"will I use my X1 to listen music or go surfing tomorrow?".
Uhm i got 1 day when i am not using the phone and it's just on standby mode all the day and no i don't have wifi on. But i don't know if GPS goes on/off auto but as far as i know it's off.
If make x1 just standby and never used it,maybe a week or more.
But,who can buy a mobile just make it standby
I never mind it,get one more battery maybe a good idea
Hmm i think ill just wait for a week or so and look what happens as i just had it for 3 days.

3 days is enough for me...I can not believe my x1 could do it...
I don't know is there the "momax battery" in your area..
My friend told me the battery is better than the original one.
You should search the forum... there are some ways to increase battery life... the biggest issue people have is that they don't fully charge the phone before switching it on. There is a bug in WM which takes the battery charge at the time to be 100%. It will not charge above this figure unless it's turned off.
So turn off the phone and fully charge then restart the phone and it will set the charge level correctly.
Then see what life you get on stand by... I bet it's lots higher.

No it doesn't, i switched mine on at the phone shop then charged it at home. Worked fine
Wow... that's a nice kick in the nads... could you at least let him try it? I know I had the issue when I first got the phone... did this and it helped me. But of course, if you haven't had this problem dadeadman you must be universally correct.

I'm gonna give that a go. Since going to itje v4.5 my battery life has been completely naff, doesn't even last a day :-(

i thought my w960 battery was wack... dis is worst...
I think there is a problem with my 3500 mah battery from sedio. I have had it for a few months now and it really wasnt what i expected. I had heard people who have had 2-3 days + battery life from one charge when i cant even get 24 hours on a single charge with out playing a game or using gps. Im running sky raiders 3.5 right now.
Is that bad? Should i try and get in contact with sedio? Any other tips.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT:
For example today:
13hrs since unplugged. 29%
awake 4.5 hours
That sucks right?

That is pretty bad. I'm at 12 hrs 50 mins since unplugged, 3 hrs 15 mins screen on, on stock battery. What kernel do you have?
Sent from my Droid Incredible running CM7 RC2.
I have to admit i am pretty new to all this stuff, just a couple of months in so i wouldnt know how to change my kernal but im sure i could figure it out if i had to.
Heres what i got:
There are all kinds of things you can do to extend your battery life but by far the simplest is to turn your screen down to quarter brightness and turn off the auto adjustment.
You need to reset your battery.
Step 1
charge the phone while turned off till the light turns green. Unplug but do not turn on then after about twenty or so seconds plug it back in and the light will be Orange again wait till its green.
Step 2
Once the charge light is green for a second time boot the phone into cwm and clear battery status. Make sure phone is still plugged in
Step 3
After you clear the batter status reboot the phone making sure that you do not unplug it . as soon as you're able to open up your app drawer once the phone has rebooted then unplug it.
Step 4
Do not charge your phone again until the battery dies and the phone shuts off.
After this you are done

For the longest time I was convinced the eBay-generic 3500mAH that came with the phone when I bought it online was faulty because it seemed I was getting identical results from my stock battery even after wiping battery stats. But now after running the battery for a week or so continuously and not swapping out to the stock battery it seems to yield much better life now that I calibrated the phone to this battery and left it in for a while.
ok....am totally depressed with the awful battery loss that i am left speechless!!!...
here's what i did
3 and a half hours on standby....45 minutes of music playback on headphone in LOW volume.
1/2 hour of angry birds @ full brightness.
15 minutes of surfing @3g with full brightness.
rest the phone was idle.
tried battery calibration, wiped battery stats, using task manager regularly. nothing helps.
v20? mine draining batt as well..
Im on temasek P20-32 and using Wi-Fi more than usually and battery is droping down every minute. Ill try kernel nova 11c and hope that this is my last chance.

cyanogen sucks for battery, it will drain like hell with wifi on
Mine also drain battert very fast! even in my sleep time. but the strange thing is even battery reached to zero, it doesn't turn off! i think it has a problem with battery level indicator.
Ps. now i'm using V20N kdz. considering about turning back to V10E Thai but regreting the smoothness of gingerbread
same here with V20N when i sleep i put`it in plain mode with 90% when i wake up the battery was 0% and now i`m back to V10F in battery monitor say`s at a certain hour/min the battery from 70% was gone to 0% and about activities that drain nothing strange , seems normal like battery monitor say`s
I have some tips for the battery:
- use your phone till it drops to 1%
- reboot you phone
- charge it till 100% (don't use your phone while it's charging)
- then turn it off
Believe me,it'll last for a week

Maybe you just have ****ty ( malfunctioned) batteries ? Buy new ones and test.
I am NOT sarcastic.
OP where are you? I am using CM7 #39 stock kernel, with no simcard, dropped 6% in 8.5 hours idle. But if there's data connection available and sync turned on, you only need 10-15 minutes to drop 6% (idle).
We need a good kernel, redy2006 told me if anyone could port Nova v3 kernel into stock GB/CM7 all in one it would be great.
Like universal Siyah kernel i am using right now on my SGS2 (MiUI ICS), very great sleep setup and reasonable wakeup battery use. I can managed up to a day much better than my OB (CM7#39-stock) that can only managed up to 10 hours with the same apps and behaviour.

weird and inconsistent battery!!!!
ok...i installed zeus1 over again, wiped batt stat and installed the echelon theme.
sersly, dats wat i did!!!....nw screen set @20% br8ness, played for 20 minutes, 15/20 mins f music playback & a good backup
now i hv 94% left!!!
Hi I rooted my phone a few weeks ago hoping fir better battery and performance when needed but every since tge battery calibration has been messed up, for example earlier I was using my phone to music through ear phones and looking through Facebook (using 4g) it said I had 73% battery left but then died, phone was charged to 100% over night and only had about 35 mins of actual on screen time.
Ive tried many different battery calibration apps but none work.
Sometimes when the battery completely discharges and turns off and I plug in the charger it wilk give me the actual battery % but when I turn on the phone it will say 40% even though its actually only 12%
Should I use a different rom? Can someone recommend me one for my c6903 please
