BATTERY CONSUMPTION

I dont know whats the problem with the battery consumption that you all experience..my phone can use more than 2 days with Vortex 1.5 and still have three bars remaining..you can see the screenshot(attachment) that last phone charge is '2 days 9 hours ago'..maybe 'Remaining', 'Discharge', and 'Average Life' not accurate but 'Last Charge' is accurate according to time past..so the conclusion, battery consumption is depend on how do you use your phone..thanks..

  1. Phadly, how long did your charge last, say 1-2 months ago when you had Vortex 1.4 on your phone? What I'm saying is compare the two releases on your own phone because my battery obviously isn't in as good a condition as yours. In my phone, v1.5 gives me a significant reduction in battery life, about let's say 40%.

    That is why, for the time being, I stick with the previous release.

  2. Buy only original Nokia battery. or always have reserve battery with you.. my battery last only for half days coz im using GPS every time.. so battery depends on how you use ur phone.. your phone easily low because you use it a lot discoverying feature of new firmware.. eheheh..

  4. yep.. there's 2 thing i've notice with vortex1.5. first 1 is memory leak, which sometime gives me Memory not Enough error, and second is battery cannot last for more than 24hrs, even if i rarely use the phone.

  6. Phadly, apart from fixing the memory-leak issue, I would like ActiveNotes in the new release! I can't think of anything else right now because I think that apart from this major issue, V1.5 is perfect!

  12. @phady,

    Please remove Google Map and GT Game.

    Google Map is using phone memory to save map data. it has consumed 40% of my phone data.

    In next release please remove all 3rd applications like x-plore, google map and games etc

    Thank you.

  13. yes i agree, and you could pack all the neccesary thirdparty apps in a folder. so everyone can choose, install or delete them.
    So this is my idea ت

    ReplyDelete
  14. make the folders extra and office so that the file necessited for those folder have their own place

  16. for the first time in v1.5, my phone is running for 3 days without charging!! The main problem i guess is the widgets, they consume ram. I killed all unnecessary processes and even the menu sometimes and got 50MB average for the first day, 48 on second and 45 today. Still 3 bars left. The usage included calls for 30min, msging, music for 20min.

  17. @ parth: kill widget? mean no content shows @ main screen?

  19. with all due respect and gratitude for the great firmware , but 1.5 sucks out the battery like crazy, it lasted only just few hours over a day (so like a day and two hours). no wi-fi no listening to music no gps. unlike 1.4 where i surf and listen to music (I don't really need the maps)and the battery lasts for 2 and a half days sometimes three days.

  22. for the next release make sure Ovi Sync is included because it's amazing feature, (back up of notes, calendar and contacts over the internet so u always have them), the theme of 1.5 is great so keep that one.
    I don;t like the 4 rows fullscreen keyboard, I like the standard one without the extra row for numbers, but u can always install swype.
    and can someone please give advice about installing those apps from ovi store that require extra download of 13MB?
