Same here. Simple and accurate, works great for me. So far I am really impressed by the battery life. I could barely go through a full day with the 4G, and now I have no trouble going to full days. I am not a heavy user so that helps a lot too.
NCH

My favorite, hands down, is Battery Diviner. It doesn't look especially pretty, but it learns how you use your phone and it makes an excellent prediction on remaining battery life based on your usage habits.
Plus, it's from an XDA dev.
There's a trial version in the Android Market.

I'm using the Circular Battery Indicator for non rooted phones from the general Android apps forum.

Battery Minder
Uses next to no resources, never found running in the background stuck (like almost every other single one i've used) and the interface can be widget or thrown up on taskbar to be seen on any page.
Just my 2 cents, otherwise when I root I always mod up a circular battery.

Battery Solo Widget. Doesn't drain battery and looks pretty nice too. Just a simple circle widget that tells battery and temperature of the battery if you want.

Does it drain your battery at all?

I use battery indicator as well and no it doesn't affect battery at all it says how it works either in market description or when you install it.

Juice Defender is amazing--so good that paid $5 extra for Ultimate

[Q] Atrix Extended Aftermarket batteries

Just posting to get opinions on after market batteries. I have owned the Atrix 4G since the day it came out with no complaints whatsoever. The battery life seems to be comparable to my old iPhone 3g (which i hated) but because the Atrix is so much better I obviously have it opened and am using it a lot more.
-Is it worth it to buy the optional extended batteries?
-Are they bigger that OEM batteries?
-How much longer is the battery life?
-If so, I assume my current Otter Box would not fit?
Thank you for the help.

The largest is a Seidio (which I dont think is out) it's only a 2200 MAH, compared to our 1900 (ish) MAH. I got a new replacement from moto because my battery life wasn't lasting as long as it was when i first bought it. Turned out I actually had the wrong battery mode on and it was using up too much power.
I have the 3600 mah, and while its big and you can't use a phone, it makes it easier to hold the phone imo, and lasts all day easily.

Jeez that thing would last me like 2 days
Userid moretalktime on eBay sells custom TPU cases the atrix with the extended battery installed.

My review with heavy usage says you'll last forever. Now I squeeze a day and a half with stock battery. That battery pushes me several.

do you have a prob where the % do not reflect the actual battery usage? my battery can show 30% but after a reboot it will show 100%. I can do a reboot twice before it shows the actual %
I can confirm CEOGUY's report on the Seidio3200. It is indeed a beast.
I too experienced the battery calibration problem. I am now using the latest Battery Monitor Widget. Something was fixed in a recent update that allows the calibration to work correctly.

Does the battery req a special charger? Or just charging direct from the phone will be sufficient
No special charger, I use the OEM one.

Battery life with the new 2.3.4 update

Has anyone noticed better battery life with the new 2.3.4 update?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
I was trying not to be that guy "ohh my battery life, all the way across the sky!" But hell, I admit that it's pretty damn good with this update, kernel magic perhaps?

Strange, I haven't noticed a change in my battery life.
I think the new PRI is causing the phone to sleep faster
i think my battery has been worse
i can tell you for sure HTC IQAgent is using significant CPU cycles, i don't think it was present on the older firmware

why in the world would u enable that?
i didn't enable it, it's new with the ota update
and it also looks like you can't kill it from a task manager
Oh yeah, I had Freeza's tweaked Kernel for 2.3.4 that had that stuff removed. Forgot about that.

A noticeable bit better----its been 12 hours off charger and I'm at 51% power left: wifi all day and roaming with 2-4 calls, 2 emails accounts, twitter and some time on xda

Afaik it's a mandatory system process that HTC uses to collect usage data, if there's a way to disable it I'd love to know!

Again, get Freeza's modified Kernel. It's in the development section.

Ive noticed that my battery life is significantly better. Typically with moderate internet usage, three email accounts, , weather, facebook, and stocks updating I would need to charge by probably 5-6pm, sometimes earlier. It is nearly 10pm now and I am still just over 15%.
I noticed a battery improvement with my PRL update on 8/16. Before the PRL update I would average -86dBm to -92dBm, after -81dBm to -87dBm on EVDO according to Signal Status app. Update on 8/18 no apparent battery improvement. YMMV

[Q] Juice Defender or Green Power Saver

Just wondering who's using either.if these apps with their EVO 3d and how much battery do you save?
thinking of trying one.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
I'm running green power pro. It works great for me and gives a nice amount of extra battery life.
Sent From My Sucka Free 3D
I'm using juice defender, and it's telling me I'm getting x1.59 battery life. I've been off the charger for 36 hours with moderate use (display-91%, os-3%, standby 3%, internet-2%, bluetooth-1%), and my battery is sitting at 10% now with an estimated 4 hours battery life remaining.
Never tried green power! Why not just try them both out for yourself (there are free versions of both), and see what you like best?
Love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we will change the world.

yea ill deff check it out.. i have good battery life now but could always use more!!! thanks bro..
Did battery saver pro help? Did you notice any change?
na.. better battetry stats is the app i need cause it shows me whats keeping the phone awake.. i think i have tryed just about every battery app.. i dont think they really work.. thats just me though.. well juice defender is the best i think..
betterbatterystats is the best battery saving app out there in my opinion. wake locks drain battery, BBS shows you what exactly is keeping your phone awake. many times it has helped me get rid of useless **** apps that suck and suck juice while my device was in my pocket.
also, to the OP, mine shows the same usage for both of those most of time. don't worry, it is normal.

Battery monitoring app

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good app for battery monitoring and stats? I don't care about increasing battery life or anything like that I just want extra stats and info.
Try this...

Yeah, I only ran a sense JB ROM for a few days, but HTC really effed up the battery reporting, (and quick settings). Really disappointed in HTC. Oh well, I never use sense anyway.
From my Evo LTE, yup.
