With all the default sync options, approx 30 mins of web browsing, 1 hour of music and 1 hour of talk time on 2G network, I was getting through 16 hours.

After installing juice defender beta & then Ultimate, I am getting around 1.5 days

Hi Siddd,

I've had a look at the description for Juice Defender. It says it supports CPU scaling when phone is idle - is this supported on the Incredible S, or does it need rooting first (which I understand is not possible at the moment)?

Thanks.

Thanks.

It says "this feature requires root access!". Which is not possible presently.

Hope that helps. To get a feel of this app, you should try out the Juice defender beta which is free.

Hi,

With wifi on for 8hrs, sync every 30 mins,30 texts,45 mins of voice,GPS ON twice a day (Four square app),2 hrs of music (30 mins on FM radio),
default brightness,accelero enabled,Blue tooth OFF,haptic feed back disabled,30 mins of angry birds,3G OFF (using only EDGE at the moment), i get 10 hrs of battery life.....

This observation is after the battery was fully conditioned,probably 15 charge discharge cycles...


Regards,
Kumar.

I keep mine on minimum or low brightness and use 'Advanced Task Killer' app. I browse the web, have push email, updating peep every 15 mins, listen to an hour of music, and make a few phonecalls, and have it on wifi all evening.... usually battery isn't below 50% by bedtime.
