In regards to your statement that
"I don't have any advance setting set up as I'm not quite sure what they mean " You are in good company - After reading the multi page thread about battery life tricks on the other forum, I am Convinced with out doubt, that Neither do 99% of the people on these forums, Myself included!
Heres what you and everyone else has to remember
"Battery - 1300 mAh Li-on
Talk time: 214 min
Standby: 373 hrs
(The above are subject to network and phone usage)"
These figures come from HTC and represent "Non Real World usage and are best case scenarios"
Lets not forget that the HTC figure of 214 mins talk time represents the phone portion of the device, which arguably uses the least amount of battery, compared to WiFi, bluetooth, GPS, Browsing, 3G etc. and was obviously gotten with the screen off. Since the screen, by default, turns off when in a phone call. Also, lets not forget, these stats were achieved with out multi tasking or any other app running in the background. Now factor in all the other things one might do with device over the course of a day and I would bet that unless this phone is in your pocket in airplane mode there is no way the avg user will get much more then the avg work day out of it
HTC's, so far, are the ONLY proven facts, and Everybody needs to just deal with them once and for all..
All the Battery and ROM threads are full of braggers and boasters claiming utterly ridiculous battery use statistics, 18+ hours, 30+ hours, Two Days etc and all are prefaced with Non scientific stats like " Light Texting, A few texts, Medium usage, A few phone calls Etc. It doesn't take a Rocket Scientist to understand that these unproven claims are Impossible. I am convinced that no matter what trick, hack, CPU speed, advanced setting, Battery Conditioner or even Shampoo! one uses, there is no way you are EVER going to get any better battery life then HTC's Best case scenario figures! +/- 10%
To all the braggers and Boasters, Please feel free to chime in with Provable facts and Figures, Not the typical comments of Light, a few texts, some browsing etc.
I stand by my claims 100% and will subject my phone to any gimmick, trick or test if any one of you who are making the ridiculous 12+ hours of usage claims can PROVE they work or at the very least, give DETAILED stats on what "Light Usage" means.
So far I have tried almost Tip, Gimmick and Trick I have read about and My phone = Rooted with KaosFroyo, NOTHING running in the background, no widgets, all auto connect, notifications etc turned off still never gets better then about 2.5 to 3.5 hours of actual USAGE time.
It's funny how forums work, one Genius trys something, posts about it, then it becomes the Gospell to all. Until, the next genius (usually only 12 hours later) offers his or her Opinion on what is the "New best"
To sum it up, Reading the never ending ROM / Battery life threads and all the "opinions" in them is comical at best. No matter what any of us do, there is just no way we can achieve much, if any better results then the factory got under perfectly controlled test conditions.
Thanks for reading!
P.S. if any of you really think you know more then the people who made the phones, and can Prove it, I am quite certain HTC will welcome you with open arms
