one month with "betterbatterystats"

so after advice on this forum i installed a app called betterbatterystats about a month ago .
and have been using it to whittle out apps that suck up juice and keep phone awake and so on and so on .

my results now are superb
i am a moderate user but i have to say i am super impressed with just how much you can get out of this phone with a little tweaking.

You have got to be kidding me. That is from moderate usage?
And I thought I was doing good at 18hrs with 30% left :)
Fantastic life you got there :D
 
Thats great, but what path did you take to get there? I can get battery life like that too - in airplane mode.

So what tweeks did you discover over the last month, apart from the obvious juice drinkers (mobile data/screen brightness/wallpaper colour etc)
 
< googling "sd maid" > :D

Kidding aside, good report.

well for a start all the samsung bloatware has been frozen .
i have found certain apps that were waking the phone 25 times a day sometimes so they also got either removed or i went into settings and stopped them syncing so much
practically all my apps now are set too manually sync instead of automatic.

this is with a data connection on when needed . but wi-fi is on if available rather than 3g .

but all of this was because i could monitor the in and out of what was using battery.
my phone is rooted so i can monitor alarms and network aswel which is not available on a unrooted phone.

if i think of anymore stuff i will edit my post .
