i have done this with my mogul and have noticed a better batt life - went from a little over 1 day of normal use to about 2 days. Still - when the batt life gets down to under 30 percent it seems like anytime someone calls it doesn't wake the phone up - it just waits until i manually wake up the phone then rings once and shows that i have a missed call. oh well - as long as i keeo it above 30 percent it works fine and hopefully they'll fix that with the next rom update

I downloaded the hacks this afternoon and see minor improvement
I got my Mogul a week ago and the last week, I had to charge the phone at least 3 times everyday ( I was browsing the net, watching slingplayer, playing Youtube/Video Google and had Active Sync running 24/7 to fetch my work email. Guess all this drained my battery rather easily. However, this afternoon, I found this site with the hacks. Installed it this afternoon (I installed both speed and power hacks. It has run on my Mogul for about 5 hours and I have not noticed any problems. I have also noticed a minor increase in browsing speed and after 5 hours of medium usage, my phone hit 5% level ready to be charged. Tomorrow is going to be the real test to see how many times from morn to night I will have to charge it with more than mediocre usage - you know slingplayer, youtube and the works. Hopefully it lasts. Will keep you posted, how it goes tomorrow!:scratch:

Wow...I would not define that as 'medium' or moderate usage. It's no wonder why you need to charge your Mogul a few times a day... |
Eureka! Eureka! This works, works absolutely fine
You know its been almost a week since I installed this hack and I must say =D>:headbang:=D>
It has SIGNIFICANTLY improved my battery life, I still use this to watch at least 1 hour of slingbox or youtube/google video while at the gym and I have my active sync set up to receive my work emails instantly from my exchange server and also my gmail gets check every 5 minutes. WORKS GRRRRRRRRREAT!!!! |
thanks guys. I'm gonna try these now, actually. I'll go for some heavy usage throughout the day tomorrow and see what's up. I text about a hundred in and out each day. spend a fair amount of time roaming. as well, maybe 15-20 minutes of wi-fi usage a day. also some ev-do when I get it (I'm on the fringe of St. Louis, so it goes in and out). and maybe an hour of music a day. usually I come home with about 20-30% battery. which, honestly, is a lot more than I can say for my Apache. But it could use some improvement.
Question: do the battery hacks have any effect on the charging time? |
I guess I'm the only one with a crap mogul then. I installed these hacks and to tell you the truth I can't see any improvement at all. I have even resorted to turning off bluetooth entirely on my phone and still have to recharge it twice a day to keep it from going off before 7:00pm and that's with taking it off the charger at 8:00am and using the phone for 20 mins a day. No granted I do use a VPN and a sync to my exchange server every 5 mins. But on the weekend when i turn these off I don't see a jump in battery life, maybe 10%.

if i run palringo 24/7 i get around 12 hrs of battery...

wow these hacks really made a difference. i havent needed to plug up and charge since Saturday night with pretty heavy use!

What I said was that I have turned off bluetooth completely, I have also turned off my VPN and internet connection (on the weekends) and I see absolutely NO improvement. I then said that on the during the week I have to charge my phone twice a day when using the VPN, and Exchange updating every 5 mins. Also as for coverage my house is less than half a mile from the nearest tower I get 5 bars in my house so it's not a reception problem. Now thanks for the advise on the As Items Arrive I didn't know that but it really doesn't help me because for some reason whey I turn on as items arrive it doesn't work. It won't let me connect I have to shut off my VPN and then reconnect and set it to some other option for it to work again (which probably isn't a problem for this post). But needless to say I'm glad that it works for all of you but in my case it DOES NOT work. I also want to say that I haven't done the speed hacks? Do I need to do this in order to get the battery boost? I thought if I did it would actually eat more battery and I want to stay as fcking far away from less battery tweaks as possible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
