apps that cause the incredible to not be able to sleep

[howarmat]

well if you are talking on Gtalk all day you should expect the battery to drain quite a bit then

I don't use flikr, but I'm on google talk all day

On Gtalk or using Gtalk? I'm on Gtalk all day everyday, it won't affect your battery life. If you using it all day, then maybe but honestly, I can't see it making that big of a difference. Are you using AIM/meebo/etc.?

 

[howarmat]

you can drain a battery pretty quit talking on gtalk for a couple hours....trust me! It means the display is constantly on and the phone doesnt sleep

 

[wowpaw]

Well, yes of course, ANY app you're using with the display up will kill the battery.

I'm not chatting on it all day, it's just running all day. I send/receive maybe 20-30 IMs a day between 4 or 5 people.

 

[wowpaw]

Oh ok, then that shouldn't affect your battery life at all. I have mine running all day and do about 50 IMs a day.

 

[2WheelCowboy]

Same here, always signed in on gtalk. 30-40 per day. Thais not it. Glad it's getting better just wish we knew why.

Have you been using your phone much?

I feel like I have been "playing" on it all day...

 

[NIKSTORM]

I have had my phone on all day on it only has me at 2 hours up.....does this mean I rebooted 2 hours ago?

 

[2WheelCowboy]

20:12:56 up , 6:53:17 awake . Thats pretty normal use for me and collectively that's about right. i can see the the usage time within the hour of the awake time. I contribute the other hour to background downloads. loading web pages and setting the phone down for a couple of minutes. I'm a pretty heavy talker and text on here with about a collective of 2-3 hours on the web normally. i only worked till noon today so it's actually a little low as far as calls go. More browsing today.
