I'm starting to wonder if something is wrong with my phone. I've not been able to make it through a day on a charge yet. It's 3:20 and I'm already down to 40%.

edit: I keep my brightness turned down to 0%, I don't run an app killer because everything I've read said they are bad, I guess I'm closing out of programs after I run them, I put the battery in straight out of the box and used it until it died and then full charged and it's been like this since. I use launcher pro, a regular wallpaper not any of the live ones, beautiful widgets with live weather. I'm not sure what the deal is but surely my battery life is supposed to be better than this right? The other day I went from 20% to dead in about 10 minutes while on a phone call with the screen off and everything.

Yeah make sure you are using the battery saver option and make sure your phone disconnects from the internets if its on standby. That really helped me a lot. Also your brightness level is set to again conserve your battery. Do all of these and you'll be fine. And don't watch too much porn.
 
For someone being so pissy you could have at least acknowledged the answers you received..... :slap

First time back in the thread mr. ignorant. Thanks for thinking about me tho.

And last time I knew I wasn't pissy, but after getting my question looked over by everyone it was quite a good way to redirect to possibly get a answer.

Sorry mr. ignorant if I made you check this thread every hour just to see if I said anything.

This is for YOU MAN!

Thanks for all the help guys. You and breath now mr. ignorant.

All joking aside

Thanks guys for trying to help, but the whole ADW still confuses me so I just gave up.

:dunno:dunno I just don't get some people :dunno:dunno

Yes, your second post was Pissy...

You would think after being so "pissy" about no one answering your question you would check back to see if there was any input....:dunno

Try being involved instead of being "pissy" again....:slap

Must be awesome being physic. Wish I was.

Cause you know me better then me right? It just might be that you simply took a typed sentence out of context and made it what you wanted, but then again you are physic.

Lets test this. Im gonna say "you are ignorant."

You are ignornat.

Now am I being "pissy" or just a d___? See its hardd to tell.

And sorry I can't be involved as you. Its a shame we all don't live the same lives.

Oh Question!

How do I get involved if my questions get ignored(not to be confused with ignorant)?

Hmm maybe I should live on here.

You are the man thrifty. :panic:

I hope you realize you're making no sense...:lol

You didn't check this thread for over three days after your "pissy" comment but you're sure as Shat checking back now...:cuckoo:

Please post more of your Fail....:yess:
 
How do you know if it's still connected to the internet or not when it's on standby?

When you close out the window or move from it, it's not "open" anymore. The battery drain seems to be from the hardware not being able to keep up with the software. my battery goes faster after the 2.2 update then it did before. I don't have the X but the display is the main hog of power and with it having a larger screen.... well then.

Try going to about phone then battery use and see what's doing what. :wave

Make no sense? I understand it perfect. Every word is part of the english language and for the most part form simple sentences.

Oh but I did misspell hard. Please forgive me. I know how much this thread means to you. Especially if your keeping tabs on me. Me? The one who frequents this thread the least(maybe).

Moving on - (making it easier to follow for you)

Is checking the forums only when you have the time to check them uncommon these days? Damn, guess I should check them when I don't have time just to keep you happy.

You might find this shocking...Once I was working in an area and that had no wi fi and I wasn't able to check in OVER A WEEK. GASP!!!!!!

We'll go as long as you want. I bet me talking to you makes you feel like you have a friend. Sorry im not here to be friends.

Oh oh again...being "pissy" or a ____? Guess Physic thrifty.

:monkey3























Answer: A little of both. Its been a longgggggggg day.

Until next post, cause god forbid you leave me alone. :rotfl

Good to see that you had the time to participate in this thread tonight during your busy schedule to add absolutely nothing. :wave

Glad I could make your night just a little better by replying to your comment that added absolutely nothing. It's ok we all do it every once in a while. And sometimes its hard not to be ignorant.

I know you didn't mean to sound stupid but.. your right it is night 1:28am to be exact and tomorrow is also Sat. People who work during the day normally aren't busy this late at night - Edit: going into the weekend. I don't have to work weekends on this job, since you care.


:lsvader = Thrifty vs. Nuka. Who you wanna be?

Another quick question about dropbox. Is it possible to take a video with my phone and put it in dropbox on my phone and be able to access it from my laptop, or is it only from PC to phone? If so how would I do that? Thanks.

Bump for Kabuki to read.

Kabuki might have a better opinion on it or Psychic Thrifty might know cause well he's psychic, but two friends of mine bought X's that were defective. Sent them back and got ones that weren't. I don't know what was wrong with them. Yours could share the same mishap. I'd take it into verizon and see what they say if you have one around you.

My battery didn't really break in until after about 2 weeks of use. I was often at 40% after getting home from work mid-day. This is with a couple phone calls, lots of futzing around with (it was still new and I had it on constantly), wifi always on, GPS always on, live background, ton o' widgets, and Launcher Pro with 7 screens.

After that 2 weeks, I've consistently gotten full days. It's usually around 30%-40% when plugging it in at night at 10. Though, it does get a charge in my car some times when I remember to plug it in. Give it some time to break the battery in. If you're still getting crappy battery life, download SystemPanelLite:

That will allow you to see if you have any rouge apps going wild on your cpu or network hogs. Those will kill your battery fast.

Regarding uploading to DropBox, it's really easy! Just open the DropBox app, navigate to where you want to put the picture or video, then click the menu button (4 squares physical button on the left) and then tap upload. It will then ask what type of file you'd like to upload. If you select photo or video, it will launch Gallery (or ask you which program to launch) and you can select your file from there. Easy cheesy. :duff
