Battery Life on AT&T vs Tmobile

Hi Folks,
Here's an interesting problem. I have two tilts running the exact same 6.1 code. One is on AT&T serivce and the other is on Tmobile. The AT&T phone is running on HSDPA/3G/Edge/GPRS and the Tmobile is running on Edge.
With no calls, I get two to three days battery life from the Tmobile phone and less than 12 hours with the AT&T phone. Turning off HSPDA on AT&T may give me an hour or so more, but no where near the 2 days the tmobile tilt runs.
The problem is compounded by the AT&T signal strength being very low comapared to tmobile for where I live.
I tried disabling 3G on the AT&T phone, with the Commanager, but I'm then limited to GPRS speeds (~64k/s).
Is there any way to disable 3G and still be able to use Edge?

One word, which I will deny you.. HEHE But I will show you a picture of it.

I already searched. The search lead to kaisertweak which is replaced by advancedconfig. Which doesn't help. The other one led to the commanager that will allow me to disable 3G, but disables wifi and Edge as well.
Thanks for nothing.

I always have 3G turned off on my comm manager and I use edge and wifi just fine.
However, each Tilt is different with battery life, which is strange. Personally my battery life blows but I know a few people who have a much better battery life.

3G is a notorious battery drain, so i keep mine turned off (via Comm Manager) unless I really need it.
Do you have the same programs running on both handsets? Same e-mail accounts? Similar surfing patterns?
What happens if you swap batteries? I'm just wondering if you've got a bad battery, but I have to say that I've never gotten 2-3 days out of my Tilt (running on AT&T.

The AT&T phone is running on HSDPA/3G/Edge/GPRS and the Tmobile is running on Edge.

As said above, 3G eats up batteries. Even 3g iphone users complain about the battery life compared to the older iphones.

Funniest reply I have ever seen!
I can tell a huge difference in battery life if I go some place that only uses edge. Like everyone else said..3G drains the battery. Either you want fast internet or you want long battery...have to pick one.

I have switched the phones back and forth and they are identical down to the radio rom and software. I do have the tmobile one running blackberry connect. I went back and forth between the two to see if it was the blackberry connect software that was eating up the battery. The tmobile phone is lasting 2 days with BB Connect software! And I can't say that the AT&T phone is lasting any longer without the BB connect software running on it.
I tried Commanager, but it apparently disable Edge as well. Aftwards, my phone only connected via GPRS.
I found a thread in the Hermes forum for Bandswitch. I'm trying it on the AT&T Tilt to see how it works. So far it has allowed me to disable UMTS/HSPDA/3G and still connect with Edge/GPRS.
If that doesn't work, the only remaining conclusion i can come up with is that the lower signal quality on the AT&T network is what is sucking up the battery life on the tilt.

you shouldn't have a problem disabling 3G and still use Edge. Just turn 3G off in your comm manager. Then try to connect to the internet. If it won't let you connect you need to change your connection settings.
I think you're making this more difficult than it is.

EDGE: 7 days; 3G: 3 days. I try to keep 3G off whenever possible now. Back when I was staying at my old apartment, I had to rely heavily on 3G to get a clear call through.

Have you tried unlocking both phones and swapping the SIM cards? It could be the device, but doing that would definitely tell you if it was the device or the network...

Yes, both devices are unlocked. it's definitely a network related issue. The problem follows the sim/network and not the phone. Both phones are configured identically with the same Radio and ROM version as well.

WOW 7 days???? What do you use your phone for? Im guessing not much playing with it or messaging / ect . . . . . Must just use it for 20 mins a day on the celly talkin lol

I was thinking that you might have a bad radio.. Has noone seen that movie?

I suppose it could be signal quality, but it also may be that your radio works better with T-mo.
I've never had an issue using a Comm Manager to disable 3G only. There are a number of different Comm Managers available, so you might try a different one and see if that works. I tried Bandswitch on my 8525 and it messed up my phone to the point of requiring a hard reset, so different strokes and all that...
You didn't mention if you had tried swapping the batteries. I'd give that a shot and see what happens.

I honestly can't believe the battery life some of you guys are reporting. 3 days? 7 days??? Are you leaving the phone powered off most of the time, or what???

If I turn off edge except when I need it I can get 3 days easy.

Update
Well,
Bandswitch helped me turn off HSPDA/3G and still maintain edge. Initial results are that the phone is lasting longer. Not sure by how much. I'll try different commanagers and see if I can disable 3g and still have edge.
I agree that it could be a phone radio issue where the radio works better with tmobile. My AT&T tilt came with a new SIM, but I did not bother using it since I already had a 3G 64ksim already. I don't know if that could be a factor.
I did not try swaping out the battery because putting the tmobile sim in the at&t phone results with great battery life in the AT&T phone....so I don't think it's a battery issue.
thanks everyone!

Help Please.

Ok, so here my deal. What is up with my answering modem always disconnecting. i cant send texts, receive, browse net, even make calls. It will say dialing then automaticlly exit. I have to do this at least 20 times for it to actually go through, half the time it doesnt cause i get so pissed. Considering i have full or one below full servive. Damn phone is a giant watch. but everything works fine when i am at home. once i leave the house nothing works, all the setting are what they were when i got it.
BTW this is my second tilt. the first one, i got the red light, and AT&T finally sent me a new one.
the second one, no red light, no nothing. everything was working great. i was so stoked. now its doing this crap again. I've done a hard reset to put everything back to normal to see if that works. nothing. when i try to connect to the net, it says the answering modem has been disconnected. why ? why is this doing this ?
Please help me with this.
Thanks

Did you remember to pay your bill?

it seems the problem is with your network

Start there. This would happen to be the FIRST WIKI page for the kaiser here. Note there is a section called " Rom Upgrading". I think thats a heck of a place to start seeing as how you want to "Upgrade your Rom".

Still nothing. now it wont even load anything. ive tried 3 different roms and changing up the radio. it will get as far as the progress bar with the % and then its says that it a communication error. im getting really fustrated and annoyed, someone please help. everything works fine when im at home but once i leave, nothing. no service,net,calls... damn thing is a giant watch. it will get service for maybe a couple minutes then hit no service again. I dont even know what to do...
is there anyone close in the portland, oregon area that is able to help ?

Well if some people could help me out and post some helpful hints or something that would be great.
im off to work and wont be back on until about 1am or so.
Thanks in advance

WOW. no one ?
thanks for the help..

Restore the original ROM, tell ATT it's faulty too and ask for another replacement?

Try setting it to GSM only (disable 3G) and see what happens.
To do that go to Settings->Personal->Phone->Band->Network Type=GSM.
If it works then, you might want to read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=419803

ok. so i dont have that option. when i go into phone. i only have the network at&t that comes up when is does decide to get service

Are you sure you don't have that tab in your phone settings (it might look a bit different)? It looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

yeah im sure. where you have the tabs that say phone/network/pin...
mine run i the order of.. phone/services/network/pin/pin2/time zones/more
and nothing about gsm or choosing anything else are in those tabs.
The phone is a AT&T Tilt. if that makes any difference

Then AT&T is hiding the panel via a registry setting.
The easier way to make it visible again is by using KaiserTweak (get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349009 if you don't have it or if you have an old xml.).
After you get it and install it:
1. Close the Phone Settings app if open
2. Start KaiserTweak
3. Under the "Data (GPRS/Edge/HSDPA/WIFI)" group, find an entry called "Show Band Page".
4. In the drop menu at the bottom, select "Enabled (Advised)".
5. Hit Exit and it should now be visible in the Phone Settings.

wow. totally forgot that i had kaiser tweak. ill try that now

Wi Fi on ATT TILT problem

How do I verify that my WiFi is actually working?
I have two TILTS with the same radios, one shows available WiFi access points and other desn't.
On the one that doesn't I recently replaced the broken screen so may be disconnect something, but the rest of the phone functionality is working fine.
Is there any diagnostic utils or something else I can use to troubleshoot it?
Thanks a lot

Any ideas?
I tried few different radios, reinstalled ATT original 6.1 ROM = the same problem.
GPS works fine SMS, phone, Data connections etc they all work.
Hardware problem? Or there is something in software I can still try to troubleshoot it?
Thanks

um turn it on and if it doesn't find anything it's broke? I don't think the radio Rom has anything to do with the wifi radio. Make sure that power saving is set to a minimum.

That's correct. I have two identical TILTs. When I turn on Wi Wi on them both the first one displays the list of available networks. The other one doesn't.
If I don't turn it on but go to Wi Fi settings there is a Search Networks entry in the list.
If I activate it, I assume it turns on Wi Fi searches and gives me the message:
"No visible networks detected. Widows Mobile will continue to search for networks periodically".
Never finds anything
From reading HTC manual I think TILT shares BT & Wi Fi antenna. BT works Wi Fi doesn't.
Must be something else or I am wrong about that assumption.

Please people, experts help!!!!

do a hard reset, if it doesn't work then it's broken.

If you would read my posts you would see that I flashed few different radios and few different ROMs on it including the stock one from ATT.
The same problem. So what would hard reset do?
It seems to me that most of your expert advices are: "Oh well, your devise is broken." What exactly is "broken"?
Quite frankly it's not an advice I am looking for here from the real experts.

Are you the type of person that drinks milk thats gone bad until it's turned good again.
If it doesn't work on a reset/flash on serveral roms, wouldn't you think the device is defective.

The wifi card is broken.
If you have hard reset, flashed several roms and adjusted the power management settings for best performance, what else is there?

Unfortunately, when people such as myself, read through a thread like this and see people asking for help, giving snide retorts to other senior members , who are trying to help. It makes you feel like even if you did try to help, it wouldn't be appreciated anyway, so why bother.
But I will offer a second opinion anyway " it's broken "

It's OK with me.
Somehow, for some reason, I do not consider the answer "it's broken" as a decent reply to my original cry for help.
But it's ok, I guess indeed why bother ...

If you had come with a differnt problem or different symptoms, then you may have gotten another answer. I can't help that it's a pretty simple thing.
You totally reload the software with different releases that are know to work out of the box, so we know it's not software. We would like to assume you know how to even turn the wireless on because it works on the other phone.
Maybe thats the problem.
Do you know how to turn the wireless on and off?

[Q] GPS doesn't get lock. Software or Hardware issue?

I'm in the UK (London) and have tried several firmwares, none of them gave any acceptable result for the matter that the phone doesn't lock on any single satellite.

"one of our engineers has found the problem and fixed it. For quality control, another one of our engineers checked the repair."
Guess what, nothing happened it still doesn't work. I hope you can come up with some solution - even if it involves hardware fix.

Ask them what problem was found, was it related to software or hardware?
Its mostly the settings which might need tweaking as per your location. I have noticed that 1st time gps locking takes time & you should have working data connection to assist its locking & after that the phone maintains a cache of your locations.
GPS dont work indoors so go out in open park 50mt away from the nearest buildings & switch on the gps & see if it locks or not. Indoor the phone uses cell tower to determinate your location but gps wont lock your location due to missing signals.
These are my settings.
menu>settings>Location & security>
check all with green check mark.
use wireless network
use gps satellites
use sensor aiding
Might help to lock, try these & report back.

Worth a try and also worth looking at the GPS fixes posts .
5 mins = 7- 11 sats on a cold boot for me .

Did you tried a diffrent modem? Like JQ1 or something. Maybe that help.

I've tried several firmwares with different modems, all of them gave the above result outdoors, still after 10-15 mins waiting. The settings are the best touted around the web, also tried FasterFix... no luck.
I really suspect a HW failure or something with the antenna. The SNR value starts off at around 30-35 when the device senses the satellites, then slowly goes down to 14-18.

Sorry i'm not native english speaker.. what's that you're saying in other words (gps fade)? The great lord of the dark must be from Wheel of time lol
Development in the case:
As Chris_84 suggested, i've tried XXJQ1 modem and i've managed to get a lock on 3-5 satellites for about a second, then dropped. But the SNRs are far better than the one on the screenshots. I'll try some others too.

I had exactly the same problem with GTI9003 fw DDKB2. I tried all the softwares which you tried and results were exactly same. No settings worked. So I changed to XXKB3 available in forum. The GPS worked instantly without having to change any settings. I have tried this on two different pcs and it works. So you can try this fw and let us know the results.

@mrdeepakbajaj
the signal is still low with only 4 satellites & none locked as yet in your screenshot but I have found a fix here with gps tweak
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1043034
Now I can lock within 2 sec with 5 mt accuracy to 11 satellites, here is my post about my testing.

Tencent Edition: Loss of Signal?

Hello all,
First post on the XDA forums because you guys are awesome and I couldn't find anything else on this issue anywhere. So I have had my Asus rog 2 for about 2 months now. I got it on eBay tencent Edition for the US. It's a beautiful phone and it works great. However...
The signal bar keeps dying. Whenever I would game (in this case, mobile legends) I would occasionally have my full strength/half strength signal bar go to 0 signal or just none (empty bar or no bar at all) which would not only shut off my data, but it would also cause my wifi connection to disconnect. It takes about 20-30 seconds for it to reconnect which is way too long when you're in a Moba. It's super upsetting since my older phone, the Poco has no issue like this and it doesn't even have a Sim card! I have this Juggernaut phone but I'm forced to play on the Poco. Very sad.
Other gripes with it is the ****ty H+ connection on data. That being said, I am using a Chinese phone in the US so I've just come to terms with it. I have cricket wireless so it is a band that the rog 2 has. My friend told me to maybe flash a new os (global version) and maybe that would fix everything. I'm not sure, I was looking for more feedback. Let me know guys!
Below I have attached a screenshot that gives an example of what I mean.

I have no idea why my images aren't working, so if you need the link to view what I mean let me know. But it's basically just the phone signal bar going from full strength or whatever it is to 0 strength. It goes from saying "cricket" (meaning I'm connected) to no connection, emergency calls only and then eventually back to cricket. About a 30-second process to get reconnected every time.

First post on the XDA forums because you guys are awesome and I couldn't find anything else on this issue anywhere. So I have had my Asus rog 2 for about 2 months now. I got it on eBay tencent Edition for the US. It's a beautiful phone and it works great. However...
The signal bar keeps dying. Whenever I would game (in this case, mobile legends) I would occasionally have my full strength/half strength signal bar go to 0 signal or just none (empty bar or no bar at all) which would not only shut off my data, but it would also cause my wifi connection to disconnect. It takes about 20-30 seconds for it to reconnect which is way too long when you're in a Moba. It's super upsetting since my older phone, the Poco has no issue like this and it doesn't even have a Sim card! I have this Juggernaut phone but I'm forced to play on the Poco. Very sad.
Other gripes with it is the ****ty H+ connection on data. That being said, I am using a Chinese phone in the US so I've just come to terms with it. I have cricket wireless so it is a band that the rog 2 has. My friend told me to maybe flash a new os (global version) and maybe that would fix everything. I'm not sure, I was looking for more feedback. Let me know guys!
Below I have attached a screenshot that gives an example of what I mean.
I have no idea why my images aren't working, so if you need the link to view what I mean let me know. But it's basically just the phone signal bar going from full strength or whatever it is to 0 strength. It goes from saying "cricket" (meaning I'm connected) to no connection, emergency calls only and then eventually back to cricket. About a 30-second process to get reconnected every time.

You're not the only one dude,

But I don't know how to reproduce this behaviour. Mine doesn't seem to do, however, there are a handful of people on that thread where it does happen...
You could maybe report it to asus forums, there doesn't seem to be any answer here... Other than, like you say, maybe flashing the whole device again with a fresh rom. Can't say for sure that would work though...
If you do decide to flash again, you might wanna use this guide and check the video linked in that OP to see how to do it...

I used to have the H+ issue when I was with AT&T but after switching to simple mobile I've been getting 4G ever since. Really any plan on the T mobile network would probably resolve that issue.

Evetyday i have this damn problem
Also wifi with sim problem
