Battery life - TG01 General

Mine is shocking. I have wifi ect turned off. Im running SPB 3.5,
Charged for 8 hours last night, Left this morning @ 8am and my battery is now down to 40%!! I havent even used it either!!
Is it a faulty battery or is the phone just ****?

one thing to note is that the battery level indicator is not accurate in the slightest
mine needs a charge every other day for light text, call use and once a day when used as an mp3 player, and maybe a 2nd short day charge if using fpsece alot

ok cheers pal.

batt
I charge as well every other day, I have 2 imap4 account (every 30 minutes refreshed), SPB 3.5 weather every 4 hours refreshed.. 30 minutes of call per day, 5 emails read daily approx, checking time and weather 3-8 times a day. return the phone to orange, battery is sufficient.. ciao

Had the same problem
Eventually I bought mugen battery for me and my brother 1300Mah (which is
same size as original).
I can definitely say its now improved.
I watch atleast 30 min of videos a day.
I talk for 30-40 min
send 10-15 sms messages
play games for 20-30 min
and use wifi for 10-15 min (check facebook,college mail,email)
and still come back home in the evening with a working phone.
the original was a disaster lol

Actuallu oruginak is 1000mah. Mugen 1300mah

For me the original battery got pretty bad over the last year and lost capacity. I think being this undersized and the very inaccurate level indicator doesn't help the battery to hold its designed capacity when empty battery isn't that good for battery health. And my battery was empty a lot of times.
So I hope this improves a lot with the ordered mugen battery 1300mAh.

If you want battery life get rid of spb asap! And if you have one of those roms that come with spb preinstalled and you can't disable it, try reinstalling another rom. I suggest the rom in my signature, it is 6.1 but it realy flies! It also leaves you with 100+ mb free boot ram. If you're having problems with ppl complaining about not hearing you well etc there is another version in the same thread with radio 5005.1700.05 which is for many europeans the best radio with crisp sound during calls and great battery life. Day before yesterday about 12:30AM (well practically that is yesterday ) i started with full 100% and installed this rom, which is quite a battery draining procedure. Yesterday phone was connected to bt headset all day, talked about 20-30mins and today as i'm writing this post i'm in almost full 70% on a mungen 1300mah battery.
edit: I forgot to mention something important, cpu is set to low and backlight to middle.
edit2: Today at 8:30 it reached 10% and got the recharge msg. Yesterday all day i had no calls just bt headset connection. So that's 2 full days and some change, highest ever

Now that I have the new mugen battery with 1300mAh I can state that my old original battery lost something about 30-50% during the last year. That's pretty bad, eh?

Last year? You must have bought your phone from the early ones. 30-50 is indeed quite quite bad

bigger battery without the bulge

Hi all, did a search using keyword "batteries" and suprisingly found nothing. Question: Does anyone know of an extended battery that allows you to keep the oem cover? I got a slightly extended for my pro (1800mAh) and it fit great , giving me just enough more juice. My HD arrives this week and I know the battery prolly will have a tough time going a full day. I've seen the usual assortment of super batts that take a custom bulging cover. I'd prefer to avoid the bulge.
Mugen Power makes one but it's been out-of-stock for a while... the easiest solution (at least for me) was to get a second battery.
If it's any consolation, once you go through several charge / deplete cycles with your new battery, you can expect to go through a whole day without much trouble.
Touch HD actually has the best battery life on the PDA market, surpassing even the menacing iPhone by more then 15%!
You can also find very useful apps that will help save the power, such as Lumos, that will automatically adjust your screen brightness depending on ambient lighting. And I can confirm it makes a lot of difference when it comes to battery life.
Also, Mugen sells batteries for HD that have same dimensions as stock battery, but with slightly larger capacity. I bought one for 30$, and I easily go over 3 days with these 2 batteries.
Thanks for the feedback guys. It's great to hear that the HD actually has good battery life using the oem. I know for the first few days or weeks I'll probably be using the crap out of it just because I'll be getting used to it and it will be to awesome to put down I'll see how it goes and maybe check into muygen if they might have something that fits as is, into the back. Really getting hyped about this HD.
You can also consider a power station which slots in the mini usb slot but makes your touch hd longer but you don't get the bulge.

You get approx 2.33x the juice.

Hmm, that's interesting - I ordered mine about a week ago, they told me they were "out of stock" until the 25th May, but yet they shipped two days after I got that email and I received my 1500mha battery yesterday!

Are you satisfied with yours?
I go easily 2-3 days on my HD between recharges and normal usages. A few calls and texts and a spot of internet browsing.
Do you guys watch video's or something to make the battery life so poor?
Well, after using my HD with the oem battery for the past 3 weeks I must say I am very pleasently surprised that it is working very well for me. I can go a full day with usually a bit left over. I am still using it pretty heavily, just because I can't put the dang thing down. Lol. I'm not sure I'd want to pay to much for a 1500mAh as it seems like not enough of an increase in power reserve. I'm happy with the oem.

i don't even know how you accomplish that...my screen is turned down to the lowest brightness...the 3g radio is off, i don't use wifi or play music or video...and i get a day to a day & a half @ best.
Never, ever seen 3 days
I ordered a battery from Mugen.
I received it on friday, but the phone will not charge it.
charge light turns on for about 15 sec the shots off.
when looking at the battery status it shows battery unknown.
I have emailed Mugen about this no reply as of yet.

I charged my HD over night two days ago, so now I'm clocking 2.5 days from last recharge, and it's on 50%. Couple of calls and SMS, 10-15 mins of GPRS internet each day and about 20 mins of GPS in Google maps.
That's the way to do it.
I'm on Dutty's 3.7. I make a few calls, send a few sms's, browse the internet a bit and play a bit of freecell most days. Last time I charged up was Thursday morning, yesterday at 2pm it hit 14%.
Maybe you live a a poor reception area? I've noticed my battery life gets very poor if I'm in the middle of nowhere, far from any cell towers.
I usually listen to internet radio and surf to and from work, make a couple of phone calls, have a couple of mail accounts set up. I usually don't run out of battery on a normal day, but if I have to go somewhere special I might listen to internet radio more and surf more and the battery will run out. And if I play any games, Xtrakt or Need for Speed Under Cover, or watch videos I can kiss the battery good bye.
It's a smart phone, so we use it to do all the cool things that a smart phone enables us to do. Sure its gonna drain the battery more and usually it's worth it, but you can fault us for trying to get more out of our devices

yep - been using the 1500mha Mugen for about 2 wks now and it seems pretty good - on avg. get about 10% more charge remaining at the end of the day vs. the stock battery. Work day = a bit of web surfing via HSPDA / GPRS, a bit of gaming, 1hr or so of music and a couple of SMS's and maybe calls. Usually still have around 60% charge around midnight. I do use S2U2 with Suspend Power = ON option.
I've noticed that Windows Mobile phones (in general not just Touch HD) seem to have really poor battery life in areas with poor / no reception - in these areas, it's best to either switch to flight mode OR force GSM only mode on.

[Q] Mozart battery life

Hi!
How long does your Mozart work.
My settings: WiFi & BT are off / Exchange sync is permanent.
Around 30 mins calling time a day.
Battery is empty during the afternoon. It simply does not "survive the day" and has to be recharded. Is my device not ok, or do you have the same experience?

Are you on telstra network perhaps?
I read something on the internet about a bug in the Exchange service, it reestablishes the connection every minute, so thats why you battery is empty so fast. (probably)
HTC is working on the problem. but if you are on a Telstra network there is a workaround http://blog.walshie.me/2010/11/15/htc-mozart-telstrabattery-issues-solved/
Hope this helps
I was not too pleased about the battery myself, but it was never as bad as what you're reporting!
I've always had Wifi turned on and use Exchange email... and have been continuously using the media player or an app or game now and then... and it lasts me a full day... There was once or twice when i had been continuously at it that it had 20% left by evening...
I posted about it on the forums too and someone said it'll automatically adjust itself... i was a bit skeptical, but today it still has 60% battery left and it is 12:15 AM now...! (though i did have Wifi turned off for the most part today)
Hello everyone
I have the htc mozart one month offered by the girlfriend. I used the mobile phone several times and even with wifi and bluetooth on and always lasted one day (24h) without problems. yesterday charged at 24h and at 15h had no battery. had not even turned on wifi or bluetooth. since then the battery does not last anything I do not know what happened but its not and nomal. Somebody now something about? This its really a joke but I know that the battery lasts well over

were you in an area with poor cell reception? if yes, that would affect the battery because the phone is constantly working to maintain a signal. i'm using an 1800 mAh battery from Mugen and it's easily lasting 32+ hours with 1 Push Exchange account, BT/Wifi off, 2 POP accounts (1 hour retrieval times) and about 40-80 minutes of calls when i'm in an area with a strong signal. i spent two weeks at a client site where i could barely get 1 Bar (and most often had "No Service) and the same battery would be depleted in about 18 hours. when working in an area with great cell reception, battery life is great for my use. on 2 occasions i forgot to charge the phone overnight and had about 15% battery left when i woke the next morning. in case you're wondering, i'm using the HTC TestTool - Battery Tool (v1.20.0.0) to determine battery percentage. you can find in in the WP7 forums.
I'm using the phone as I have always used but something happened that makes the battery last while. without stirring overnight stays with half in morning
i leave in portugal and use optimus
sotty bad english

That the point you living in area where the cell phone reception is really bad!! It's same for me when I go to my Island in carraibe !!But where I living Paris and London I can keep the battry 100% at 7h in the morning till late in evening around 2h at 20%; Using all day Wifi, TV, Game... So the issue about battery is not the phone but carrier issue.
Because when I take a "Metro" or "Tube" where the reception are really bad my battery drainning fast....
For me it last for a day, since i don use 3g n wifi, i use followin settings.
3g turned off
wifi turned off
Always try to close the running apps using the back key.
everynite i switch my phone to low brightness, so that i don need much time in charging my phone in the morning b4 i leave to work.
with every settings turned on the battery last for 15-17 hours.
hope they fix the battery issue in the comming update.
With heavy usage 9-10 hours battery life for me.3g,4 e-mail account.One is push,the others checking every 15 minutes(almost getting 150 e-mails every day).1 hour talk time,Web browsing over 3G,listening music 30-45 mins,playing games 15 mins.(Brighness medium,location service all on)
using dark back grounds will help save power, but everyone nows that dont they.
Except it won't help with Mozart. It only works for AMOLED displays, Mozart has an LCD.
it has at least awesome standby time...
the red light once began to flash when i went to sleep.
when i got up around 9-10h later the phone was still on.
only bluetooth was off...
even more standby power, im back to report:
3+ DAY STANDBY!
i charged my phone friday 02-11-2011
untill today (tuesday) it still lasted,
same-time as last-charge 02-15-2011
thats incredible 4 days...
WLAN was OFF the most time
3G on
only did around 4-7 2min calls
didnt play much with it,
only quickly checking for news in market from time to time
had 2 reboots because of that
and did around 5 pictures.
i think its pretty awesome times...
yeah with heavy usage its only 1 day
but still its a phone and its standby is great
There's no surprise that the phone lasts long when you don't do anything with it.
As far as I can see, the battery annihilating combination is browsing the web via 3G. Guess IE was optimized for speed to impress with responsiveness. This probably won't change much until IE9 comes (which may or may not help). The power-hungry screens are a universal problem on all current HTC devices, with WP7 and Android equally, so this won't change.
The real killer is WI-FI, i upgraded to the MUGUN 1800MiH Battery, and im not looking back, it lasts way more than 50% longer than the standard battery did.
for £28 with free delivery, you'd be silly not to buy it.
also, as an aside, the Battery arrived within 4 days from HONGKONG, which is great because it advertised that the battery would have a 10 - 15 day shipping time.
Okay... what if
had 50% power left the night before...
after 6 hours sleep
phone is out of battery @@
Now that aint right, im guessing something is running under locked screen and iono what!!! but i always jump out of any program when im about to sleep too, so it cant be because of that
In the past, i could have standby time for a long period especially after one night. But the past two days when i woke up, it always ran out of battery!!
the first two days when i got my mozart it died on me due to low battery. but when i upgraded it to nodo(i think), the battery is longer now. but i will check some more.
my battery usually lasts 24 hours. But when I open htc weather, starts to pick up GPS signal if I leave soon have a very abnormal wear of the battery.
I tried with other Porgram gps and the same happens, the battery does not last 10h

[Q] Battery not lasting that long!

I unplugged my phone at about 10:30am and at 11:28am it when from 100% to 90%!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought that the battery was suppose to last a good 24hours like Engadget said.
Any suggestions?
its better than most other android phone i had.
10% every hour of heavy use I am not complaining
if u REALLY want to save batter turn off auto sync, gps, bluetooth and other crap

The battery counter of Atirx is by 10%. So, even it shows 90%, that may means 90% to 99%

Mine has been less than impressive today as well. Not good.
Mine seems to be pretty good so far. I think it'll take a few charges to get the most out of it though. I've used it a ton since about 10am and it's showing 80%. That could be anywhere from 80-89%.
Mines been sitting at 90% for about 3 hours now. It shows 90% when it drops down even a little bit because its only done in 10% increments. Pretty stupid if you have a phone to boast about battery... Motorola dropped the ball on that. You basically have a lowered battery meter all day lol
Thanks guys for all of the help!
My battery life has been decent, I unplugged it at 5pm yesterday, drove home with Trapster running (so screen on continuous for 30 minutes), used it heavily playing with it for a few hours in the evening, left it on to wake me up in the morning..
and drove back to work for 30 minutes with trapster when the 5% battery life warning went off right when I got to work.
No complaints here.
Unplugged the phone at 5am and it's 15mins to 12pm here - still full though I did laptop dock it for 5 mins several times to show people at work.

After 4 hours, I am at 75%. Email, tweaking, texting, 2 hr conference call on BT (Finiti w/Motospeak). If you check settings, Battery Manager, touch the Battery... you will see a usage breakdown. This phone is amazing. I expect after a few full charging cycles, the battery should get to full strength.
Is there a way to disable the 3G radio to save battery life (like in the iPhone)?

+1. Do a few charge cycles and then see how you feel.
I got my phone at 30 percent and it lasted four hours of straight playing around with until it hit 10 percent and I put it on a charger. My nexus one would have died with a full charge by then(original battery).
I'll see how it goes in a week, battery life takes a bit to figure out.
Remember that break-in period for batteries when you buy a new phone. Maybe after about a week it will get better? Also maybe try that battery calibrating trick...

Well considering there's no way to know it's at 75% lol it could be at 70% or 79%...either way it would show 70%. The battery only displays at 10% updates.
You can also set up custom battery saver modes in the settings>battery save(think that's it)
My battery life kicks arse. It may be helped with my ultimate juice and tasker, but I streamed rhapsody all day at work on rhapsody, and my battery is outperforming my iphone 4. I'm very thrilled.

Mine has also done extremely well, especially considering it's day one. I've toyed with it all day playing games, music and YouTube along with browsing and playing flash video. It's been outstanding so far.
Battery gauge lies. But it's normal (kind of). See here:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/1...bump-charging-and-inconsistent-battery-drain/

The Battery on this thing is a monster

I've not been able to drain this thing since I got it a week and a half ago. I have to say that I like to charge things over night. I've not been able to get the Photon below 40% before I go to bed each night.
I hear that you need to drain it full at least once but my habit of charging things overnight is getting in the way. Should I just let it go overnight one night?
I was under the impression that completely draining Lithium Ion batteries causes more harm than good.
"The smaller the depth of discharge, the longer the battery will last. If at all possible, avoid frequent full discharges and charge more often between uses. If full discharges cannot be avoided, try utilizing a larger battery. Partial discharge on Li-ion is fine; there is no memory and the battery does not need periodic full discharge cycles other than to calibrate the fuel gauge on a smart battery."
http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries
Also, i'm sitting at 46% after 15 hours of normal (for me) use. not to shabby. I should mention i'm running Juice Defender and build 4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_5 from the dev. forums and i'm connected to WiFi 90% of the time.
going to try tomorrow without Juice Defender and see how it does. After that i'm going to disable SPB Shell and see if that makes a difference.
Thank you sir. I don't want to root my phone so don't run Juice Defender but I do use the Data Saver in stock a lot. I usually just listen to a lot of music and look for new stuff on FB, check XDA forums blah blah blah, yada yada yada...
I'll not feel paranoid about charging my phone now lol.
Now with my tablet (Acer Iconia A500) I did root and load a bunch of different stuff. This is my first cell phone though and I didn't want to mess with something that I have to pay a monthly charge for. I know I could but it's my first cell phone lol.
How much are you guys using it? For me, I use about 30min talking, 1 hr heavy wifi use, 1 hr light wifi use (reading), 30 minutes playing with settings, and the rest of the day idle...that gets me to about 30%.
I actually thought that is kind of weak. Maybe my battery isn't as healthy as yours? I've only had it for 5 days. I charge it every night.
I use it for about 7 to 8 hours of music, FB updates/posting, checking XDA, about 10 minutes of calls and so far some Netflix watching just to show off the phone to my peeps. Oh and some picture taking.
I am the same way I hate to discharge it completely and its been very hard. I've went a day and a half without charging before it went under 10%. I will say that I am on Wifi 90% of the time as I have wifi at work and at home other than that its on performance mode so no true bells and whistles. I'm thoroughly impressed coming from the Evo.

Average day for me is about 30 to 45 minutes of phone calls, 80 to 100 texts, few conversations on google talk, 30 or so emails on three accounts and i have trillian running connected to two accounts.
Connected to WiFi most of the time, bluetooth is turned on (not connected most the time) and brightness set to Auto.
I really dont see how this phone is a monster when it comes to battery life, I've actually been getting the exact opposite. I just fully charged my phone and after running for 2hrs and 7mins its down 78%.... This phone has yet to last me for the whole day. What am i doing wrong? I dont have tons of widgets and the only app that im running that might pose a problem is Go Launcher

Is that your screen on time? If that is then I would say that is impressive already. When I had the epic on stock if I use it for 2ish hours screen on time. I would need a recharge. (Got a lot better after using custom rom. Around 4 hrs screen on time before recharge)

Yes, but what's your battery status at the end of this average day? 20%? 30%? 10%?
+1 for an awesome battery!
Sent from the best MoPho
For the past couple of weeks I've been swapping batteries with an external charger one to two times during the course of a day (plus the overnight charge)... Looks like it's time to do some housekeeping...
Edit: used to have battery life like everyone else in this thread though! While at the climbing gym last night I noticed that the thing felt like it was about to catch fire against my thigh - it had burned through about 60 percent of a freshly charged battery in about two hours. I have a nagging suspicion that I neglected to uninstall something (or a few things), and now something non-existent is constantly being polled for as a service after I launch some app for the first time...
when i got my phone it did great on a full day charge, but now with it just sitting at the office its at 70% by 11am i take it off the charger 7-8am .. it started to "weaken" after i downloaded a ton of apps i leave wifi on and 4g off but it also depends on your signal strenght at home it will kill the phone halfway thru the day because i have one bar

Can't get to 4200mv

Ever since I installed cm7 stable, my battery wont get to 4200mv, max is 4191 after 10 hrs on charger. Is this a sign of a bad battery or a bug within the rom? I forced it to show 100% by doing the battery pull while plugged in trick, but I've never come across anyone not reaching full mv when doing this just the not showing 100% search didn't result in anyone with the mv issue just the % issue. Anyone know what maybe be the issue?
The only time you'll see 4200mv is when you're plugged in to the charger and the phone things the battery is full. Battery cells degrade so the battery is pretty much never going to hold 100% of it's capacity.
Honestly 4191mv is pretty good. I'm usually around 4160mv or so after coming off the charger unless I need to do a calibration.
how long does battery last on a blur-based stock non-overclocked rom? 4 days? 5?

I never got even 16 hours out of mine on stock. In fact even on custom roms im barely getting from wake up in the morning to before bed at night. I'd say from 7am to 10pm before I have to plug in. I am on it probably a total of 5 of those hours with 3 games I play, looking at xda about 10 times a day and the occasional call.
Is that 5 hours of screen time? If so, I would personally say that sounds pretty good. I've always got about 24 hours standby and maybe 3 hours screen time on most ROMs.
Mine goes from 6.15 (when I unplug it) to 15.00 draining 20% o so power... it's mostly idle, with occasional whatsapp and email, data always on. Then, from 15 i start using it pretty hard (an hour of wifi, installing/removing things from market, playing max payne and mc3 online, etc) and it can made through the day (in fact, I usually play a lot on bedtime, so i can drain the remaining battery (about 40, 30%) and recrage it overnight. I can't complain, mi milestone (AKA motorola droid) was lucky if it could make it the whole day Considering the massive display, the dual-core and the amount of ram (including the apps running in background) it's petty impressive

Yup that's screen on time. Idk it just seems like it could go longer but such is life. Lol
