Touch Pro 2 Cleanup

[marctronixx]

cant be the 1% battery feature thats causing this. its been on the old tweaks and i have been using the old tweaks since day one and i did not notice any increased battery drain. i would look into other software you use and/or reg tweaks that may be the culprit... making a blanket statement about the battery feature is not valid. with all due respect of course!

THANKS!

What is the difference in the three sprint cabs?
1. Sprint tweaks first
2. Sprint cleanup fourth
3. Sprint Tweaks fifth

The first sprint tweaks is for 6.1?
The correct order of installation for 6.5 is:
Clear Storage / Hard Reset then,
2. Sprint Cleanup fourth
3. Sprint Tweaks fifth

Can someone please confirm?
Thanks,

I hear ya,
but I noticed the same thing. My battery life was better in 6.1 prior to that tweak and 6.5 has been running good without. I too fear it will get worse once I install the tweak.
For what its worth, I run atleast 2 weeks with nothing installed except for the tweaks just to test it.

Just a comparison

I have exchange email, 20-50 texts a day 6.1 (after tweaks) I'd be getting my battery dying notifications around 8-10 hours.

On 6.5 with my location turned on for weather every hour, exchange on, same amount of text, I go easily 14-16 hours if not more.

Hey thanks again. Quick question is there a way to increase the # of tabs available for opera in the windows 6.5 version. I get stuck at three and it says the number for 5 is only for the 6.1 version.

Here is i how i did it:
open opera, in the address write "opera:config" scroll down to "user pref", click on it and scroll down till you find " Max number of tabs"...change it to the number you like....and restart opera....thats it...it worked for me..

Also, i found that the flash lite instller on XDA has it in its exe as an option.

Thanks GoodThings2Life again for all your hard work. I rather keep on using your tweaks.cab than to unlock\flash custom roms. Installed your tweak.cab last night and its been working flawlessly.

With all due respect... I GUARANTEE that's whats causing it. Because it happened before on 6.1. Battery was dying like crazy. So I read somewhere that was a cause. I took it off, and WHAM... fixed. No battery drain.

Plus, I have NO software loaded yet. I just did a hard reset to run the cleanup tab, so nothing else could be causing it.

Interesting, the %1 battery feature alleged to increase battery drain? I guess its plausible if you think about it, its polling the battery more frequently for its charge status thus increasing consumption, right? However, I'm not sure it even works like this, it may just be a tweak to allow it to report more specific status without increasing charge polling frequency. Still, this is news to me.

Can you post links to discussions or threads that validate this in any way?

GoodThings2Life: Does this Cleanup .cab change some of the icons for certain things. I'm pretty sure I noticed this but I didnt spend much time with the original before I applied the cab. For instance, the Text Messaging program icon (not referring to the slider Tab) has changed? Its an envelope, it was different before, wasn't it?

The only downside to this is that when you place one of these programs with an older icon on the Home screen it gets blown up and looks like crap (Text Message envelope has jaggies, pixelation). However, some of the newer icons are redone with better resolution and look better in larger size on the home screen (for example, File Explorer icon).

Am I just imaging this here or did some program icons get changed? What was the change for? The stock Sprint 6.5 icons actually look better if you happen to use them stickied on your Home Tab. Any chance of getting a cab that will restore these previous icons?

Honestly... I don't remember where I read it. But when I did... I took it off and all was good.
