Hi,
Just coming to Android from Windows Mobile....
With Windows Mobile you can have the screen blank after so many minutes when on battery OR so many minutes (or never) when on mains power.
Any way of doing this with the Nexus One?
Thanks.
You could install Power Manager and it'll let you control all sorts of things based on time, battery level, whether it's plugged in, etc.
It used to be a lifesaver on the G1 with its battery problems. Haven't tried it on the N1 though.
Also from WM. It would be nice to have some way of managing the sleep timeout...looks like mine turns off after a few minutes of inactivity?

Go to Menu>>settings>>sound and display>>screen timeout. you can set it to several preset values. Power Manager from the market will do this but allow for it to be different depending on whether it is plugged in or not.

I would also recommend buying setcpu from the android market I believe its still a buck. Then go into profiles, click profiles on, enable sleep/standby and set sleep/standby max to 245. Will save you a ton of battery usage!

Excellent, 10 or 20 min's should do the trick for now!
Try out Screebl. It's in the Market. It keeps the screen on as long as you're holding it in a position like it's being used. If you turn it upside down on the table (for example), it knows you're obviously not using it, and the timeout is set to 30 seconds or something like that. Everything is totally customizable, including thresholds for what angles trigger it... there's an option to timeout even when upright if it sits perfectly still for a while... it's an awesome battery saver, and eliminates the annoyance of unwanted screen timeouts while reading or something. I love it. Also, SetCPU's profiles are a great way to go if you're rooted. Power Manager was the first paid app I ever bought, and it was worth it--it really does extend the G1's crappy battery life, so it has to help here, too.
Locale will let you change settings based on the status of your phone.
Presuming it works with the Nexus One (I'm still on a G1), it will let you change the birghtness/screen timeout when it is plugged in/unplugged. It's also generally a useful app for changing settings based on location/time of day.

Locale works with the N1 =)
I tried Locale...
Specified if on mains then screen timeout is never. This works while it's plugged in, but when I unplug the mains the screen still stays on permanently rather than reverting to 1 minute timeout.
Any ideas?
This is my first tablet and not sure about battery life and everything. So I left my tablet on through the night and lost roughly 10% through the night. Not sure if thats normal or not. But if so, I will definitely be turning it off throughout the night or when I won't be using for awhile. But is there a standby mode or something we can put the tablet into?

I don't turn it off, no. One thing that will save you battery is to turn the airplane mode on when you're not using it.
I just turn off wireless and pwer off screen.
never been off
I never turn my tab off. At night.it will loose. 6 to 8 percent. At night maybe a bit more or less depending on how long its off.
And I use it often thru out the day
Awesome battery life
Haven't turned it off yet. I use it all day and plug it in at night around 20-30%, wake up charged and do it again.
I just turn the screen off overnight while charging; I leave wifi on to synch work emails & calendars. Nearly a decade of smartphone use has gotten me in the dedicated habit of charging everything every night.
Thing to keep in mind, tablets arent Kindles with week+ battery life; keep in the habit of charging it whenever convenient & you won't run out of juice unexpectedly.
I'm in the minority here.
I turn my Tab and Evo off every night, the phone just before bed. It save a bit of batt life and unwanted calls in the middle of the night or any alert tones as I'm a pretty light sleeper. I've also been doing this for probably 7-8 yrs with all my smart phones (Symbian, Win-Mo, Palm, BB and now Android).
Sometimes I turn it off at night, sometimes I just leave it on. It's definitely on ALL day. I haven't really seen it losing much battery if I leave it on overnight, but I don't have it configured to sync frequently. Whenever I notice the battery is getting a little low, I charge it up again -- don't really have a set pattern or routine that I charge it.
Anytime I know I won't be using it for twenty minutes or more, I just shut it down.
Not sure there is a right/wrong, good/bad way to do this, as it's pretty much a personal preference thang!
If I'm not gonna use it for more than a day, sure.
I also turn on airplane mode when I'm reading via Kindle or anything else that doesn't require wifi.
On a semi related note, does anyone else find the screen is too bright if you're in a dark room reading, even if you have brightness on the lowest setting?
So far I never see any difference to turn AIRPLANE MODE on... but anyway some people believe so... let say that work... hu hu hu
well
to answer I never turn off my tablet, neither turn off the wifi
I try to not use AUTO brightness, set brightness to medium.
I will turn it off... well... actually I do not.
to muqali. on lowest setting? on dark room lowest setting I think it's fine (but I have an antiglare screen... that dim the light)

That is crazy talk! I'd suffer some serrrrrious withdrawal
On to the question, no, my tablet stays on 24/7. The closest it gets to off is booting into recovery, but then it's right back on.
All my backups, security scans and cloud syncs are scheduled for the wee hours of the morning so wifi stays on at night too. Also, my iconia is my alarm clock, which is very useful for a shift worker who needs different alarms on different days.
only if the battery is low and Im to lazy to go charge it
I only turn my tablet off in order to reboot when it freezes up or gets laggy (maybe once a week). The rest of the time, it's on standby or being used.
I leave it on sometimes, other times I will randomly turn it off. I mean, its not a phone.. no reason it should be on 24/7. I don't even leave my PC on 24/7 - as it saves a lot of electricity to turn it off.
My phone (Droid X) however, stays on 24/7 =P
Yeah, I've been leaving mine on and its been just fine. I notice it turns off wifi or I guess at least disconnects when the screen is off so I'm sure that helps. At nights I guess I can turn airplane mode on and that should help. I'm impressed though with the battery so far.
I always turn it off when done, unless I know I will be using again in a short.

I use the Nook app as my eBook reader instead of the Kindle app. The Nook app has a separate brightness control within the app, and it allows me to turn even the white page brightness down to where it's very comfortable to read even in a pitch dark room. The nice thing about this is when I'm done reading and exit the Nook app, the global brightness settings for the tablet are restored so my dark wood wallpaper isn't too dark.
I'm not sure if the Kindle app has its own brightness control or not, but it might be with looking into.

yes, I noticed too, it's too damn bright, but not as bright as my phone, on the good side screen comparison between iconia, transformer, zoom and ipad2 the iconia gets praise cuz it's super dark black... you can notice easily (like me) if you're in the dark and look the status bar
I do not. I don't really ever turn mine off actually, except if the battery is at low and I'm out and not able to charge it, but that rarely happens.
I don't turn my PC off either. Turns out it doesn't save as much energy for me vs. time. I'd save roughly $90 a year if I diligently turned my PC and HTPC off...my PC however serves as the file server for everything in my home and I'm also very random in terms of bed times so it would cost me so much time (and maybe some parts issues as well) turning it on and off every time I needed to use it.
For those experiencing lag issues on your TF300, here's a step that may help reduce it: go into your settings "ASUS Customized Settings" and un-select "Disable Network While Sleeping." For best performance choose "Never"
I usually wake up around 5:00 Am and head down to the living room for an hour or so of web surfing before heading off to work. I've always noticed that the tablet is at its most un-responsive when I first wake it up, as all the internet aware background processes perform their Syncs. I'm talking stuff like e-mail accounts, weather apps, the Play Store checking for app updates etc. In fact, the tablet is practically un-usable for the first three or four minutes. Keeping the network connected while sleeping, OTOH, ensures that these programs are always updating, so there's no huge performance hit when you first bring the device out of sleep.
One of the nice features that mobile devices bring to the table is instant-on capabilities. You want to know if a flight is delayed? Simple, turn on the tablet and check your Airline Flights app. But if the tablet goes through a massive Sync cycle every time you wake it from sleep, it does not feel like an instant-on device. You might as well be booting to Windows XP on a Pentium V.
Now granted, I expect to see a battery hit from this setting, but remember: the Tegra 3 includes a fifth low power core for when the tablet isn't being used for heavy computing. It was designed for good battery life under these conditions.
At any rate, I'm just starting to play with this setting. If I find the battery drain un-acceptable, I may set it to "Disable network When Not Plugged In." That way it will still feel responsive in the morning. But I have a feeling I won't have to do that.
I fully agree to you!!!
My thoughts: Is there any app which delays the sync on start up? Maybe for 5min.? I didn't find any...
Hi android users,
I got a new micromax yureka and am having an issue of battery drainage from the very first day. I just installed few apps like whatsapp, facebook, mx player etc. Sometime later, I observed that my battery is discharging very soon. It seems like, can discharge from 100% to 0% in just 2-3 hours.
I checked the battery status and found that "Media Server" is listed on the top with 51%. For this, I did this:
Settings-> Apps ->All, select Media Storage & disable it. Clear data & reboot. Now enable it & reboot.
Referred from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/yureka/help/solve-battery-drain-issue-yu-yureka-t3015549
Now somewhat battery is discharging slowing but still results are not good. Also, mobile is charging very slowly. (Say <=20% in an hour). I googled other solutions for this problems, but none worked. Can anyone help me in this?
PS: My device is not rooted.
Yureka has released one update. Just checked if that resove this issue or not.
Also use auto brightness, this enhance battery life
You can also use Greenfy app to boost Yureka's battery life, but yureka should be rooted.

Battery Full How to save battery life on your Android device: 20 Tips
Most smartphones have either a Lithium Ion battery or a Lithium Polymer battery. Both are Lithium Ion though, and as such, do not have a ''memory'' which means you don't have to fully charge or discharge them at the beginning, and partial charging is fine throughout their life. In fact, these types of batteries suffer from low voltage, so it's actually much better to charge them, even if only a little, whenever you have the chance rather than to fully charge and fully drain them.
1. Use a dark colored background
2. Make apps darker too
3. Get rid of auto-brightness
Don't use display auto-brightness. It may sound good, but auto-brightness is usually way brighter than you really need. It's much better to manually set a super low brightness level that is still comfortable, and then just bump it up when necessary. This is one of the main ways to improve your battery life as the screen is one of the biggest battery suckers.
4. Vibrate away!
Switch off vibrate. Unless you really need that added awareness, turn off vibration. It actually takes more power to vibrate your phone than it does to ring it. Turn off haptic feedback too. Sure it feels cool, but it doesn't really add anything to your experience, and it's another battery drainer.
5. Don't use a knockoff
Only use original batteries or respected third party manufacturer batteries. Saving a few bucks on a battery that might damage your beloved smartphone is a poor choice indeed, and may also deliver sub-standard battery performance.
6. Having a timeout is good
Set your display's screen timeout to as short a time as is practical for you. Just think, if your screen timeout is set to a minute, it'll use four times the amount of power to have it on, every time you switch your screen on, than if your timeout is set to 15 seconds. Studies report the average smartphone user turns their smartphone on 150 times a day, so anything you can do to limit that frequency (through self-control or other methods listed below) will help keep your battery running for longer.
7. Get your notifications to leave you alone at night
Set ''sleep times'' or ''blocking mode'' to switch off Wi-Fi and mobile data when you don't need them. If your phone is basically off limits at work, set your device to not ring, vibrate or connect to the internet while you're at work. Likewise, you can set your phone to airplane mode when you're asleep or use sleep or blocking modes to set up limits for what your phone does during certain times of the day, whether that's while you're asleep, at work or in a meeting. Get to know the specific settings your ROM offers. Not only will you have to fiddle with your phone less throughout the day (or night), but you'll be saving on battery life too.
8. Your phone doesn't have to be smart all the time
Turn off smart features like air gestures, smart scrolling and the like, Unless you really use these features every day, they're just using battery power for a feature you don't use.
9. Nor do you need to be connected 24/7
Turn off GPS, Bluetooth, NFC, Wi-Fi and mobile data whenever you don't need them. Turning off location data, or setting it to use Wi-Fi or 3G data rather than GPS works perfectly well. Only turn on Bluetooth and NFC as long as you need them, and there's no need to have both Wi-Fi and mobile data turned on at all times. If you use Wi-Fi a lot though, say at home and at work, then it makes sense to keep set your Wi-Fi to ''Always on during sleep'' as this uses less power than to have your Wi-Fi reconnecting every time you wake your phone.
10. Try out Dynamic Notifications
Use lock screen widgets or notifications if your ROM supports them, or install an app that does it for you like Dynamic Notifications. You'll be able to get basically all your content without having to unlock your phone fully and navigating around. You still need to light your screen up, but you'll have it on for much less time than normal. using a lock screen notification app with a black background can save your battery life significantly.
11. Don't get bogged down by widgets
Ditch widgets you don't really need, especially those that are connected to the internet like weather widgets.
12. Don't let your apps fall behind the times
Keep your apps updated. There's a reason developers constantly update apps, and many of these reasons are memory and battery optimizations. Keeping your apps updated also means you have the best optimizations available. Likewise, delete old apps you no longer use, as these may be running background processes that chew up RAM and battery life.
13. Use your battery saving mode, now!
If your phone has a battery or power saving mode or other battery management option, make use of it.
14. Explore the battery saving features on your phone
All ROMs, whether it's stock Android, OEM UI's like TouchWiz or custom ROMs like CyanogenMod, have various settings in the menu to help conserve or optimize battery consumption here and there. Find these various options for your device and ROM and make them work for you!
15. Choose when you sync your data
Turn off auto-syncing for Google accounts. If you don't need every single Google account updated every fifteen minutes, just go into your Settings and Google account and turn off auto-sync for those apps you don't need constantly updated.
16. Be the master of your app updates
Set apps to update only when you launch them. If you rarely (or very frequently) open an app, it might be better to only have it update when you do so, rather than updating automatically all the time via push notifications or sync intervals. If you only check email once a day, why not let the app update then only, and if you're on a widget or app every couple of hours anyway then why not have it update each time rather than every fifteen minutes when you're not even looking at it
17. Be app update savvy in the Google Play Store
Change your Google Play Store settings to manual update your apps. If you have the Play Store set to auto-update, you might have fifteen apps updating when you least expect it, destroying your battery life (and data plan) without you realizing it. If you use even half of these battery saving tips you'll see a marked improvement in your battery life.
18. Turn off Google hotwords
Stop your phone from always listening. Google's "Ok Google" voice searching is a fantastic and often very functional feature. The problem is that it can play havoc with your battery. Go into "Google settings" from your app drawer and tap the "voice" heading. On the next page, select '"Ok Google' detection". In this menu, the best option for battery life would be to untick all boxed, but if you are a fan of "Ok Google", tick only the "From Google Search app" box to ensure your device is only primed while in the Google app.
19. Get rid of animations
Disable animations. This process may differ slightly from device to device but the crux of it should remain the same. Go to your settings and to the "about phone" page. Tap on the "build number" around 7 times. You will be notified that you have become an "Android developer" (don't worry, enabling the Android developer options doesn't have any adverse affects, it just adds another option in your settings menu). Go back to your settings and tap on the newly inserted "developer options" menu at the bottom. On the next page, scroll down to where it says "window animation scale," "transition animation scale" and "animator duration scale", and switch all of these off. Your device's interface may no=longer look as pretty, but the battery life will be better.
20. Make your location services more battery-friendly too!
Turning off location services isn't just a fantastic way to save on your battery, it saves on your data plan too! Go into your settings and you will find "location" under the "personal" heading - tap on it. At the top of the next page it you will see "mode" in this menu you will be able to set the options for how your smartphone determines your location. Select "battery saving" on the following page.

I checked the battery status and found that "Media Server" is listed on the top with 51%. For this, I did this:
Settings-> Apps ->All, select Media Storage & disable it. Clear data & reboot. Now enable it & reboot.
Referred from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/yureka/help/solve-battery-drain-issue-yu-yureka-t3015549
Now somewhat battery is discharging slowing but still results are not good. Also, mobile is charging very slowly. (Say <=20% in an hour). I googled other solutions for this problems, but none worked. Can anyone help me in this?
PS: My device is not rooted.

Hello!
The perfect way is to root your device! (Note that rooting YU doesn't void Warranty) .
By Rooting, you can install many battery saving apps like Greenify which puts all the apps into Hibernation, which prevents them from running in background when not in use! And also, this is done automatically if your device is rooted!
If you install a custom Recovery like CWM or TWRP, you can flash custom Kernels, which give you the complete access to customize everything(literally) of your hardware and if you optimize the settings correctly, the battery life will be Awesome!!
Hope this Helped! :laugh: If it did, hit the Thanks:good: button! And hesitate not to ask anything regarding this!
I have a couple HD 8's (and a 10) that I wiped that are running Lineage (awesome) and now are being used as interactive panels in my house to keep me updated on my security system, webcams and other devices.
The problem is that I don't like keeping the screen on 24/7 so I have the units screen go off. When it does this, of course the unit goes to sleep and the main app (Fully Kiosk Browser) goes to sleep as well. When I tap the screen the next time, it has to wake up and it shows all out-of-date info. On the 10 it refreshes everything in about a second, but on the 8's it takes about 5 seconds which is a long time to wait to see the time, temp, etc.
I'm wondering if there's ANY way to keep the system running (the tablets are always powered), but to have the screens go fully off without the unit going to sleep.

You can enable Stay Awake in developer options to keep the screen on while charger is connected.

Will this cause the battery to swell up if I leave it on Keep Awake with the charger connected all the time?

The battery doesn't swelling up while charger is connected because it has an overcharge protection.
The problem with this is I also don't want to have the screen on all the time as the glow from it, even when device is set to all black, is quite distracting. Plus it's still burning the life of the backlights 24/7 unnecessarily.
