did u disable 4g then? i assume that would help some, if u set it to only 3g.

 

[iancurtis]

Great Success with Juice Defender

I've been using Juice Defender for over a week now with great success as far reducing battery consumption. With 4g it has gone from 2+% per hour to about 1.5%. With 3G it is less than 1%. So I only turn on 4G when using HotSpot.

Only possible problem that might be happening, but I haven't confirmed is that it doesn't recognize that I have Pandora running in background and I have to open screen to get next track. But this symptom could do some other issue.

So my experience is the Juice Defender does what it says it does. So far I've only used the default setting, no customization.

Hope this helps

I have had great success with Juice Defender beta. I get anywhere from 1.20% to 1.60%

I def. have seen an improvement to battery life with this program.

Rooted, rom-ed, and kernel-ed I see less than .5% per hour of drain while on wifi with the phone idle. I dont even bother charging my phone overnight unless im at less than 30% charge because anything north of that gets me through the night and the day until im back home again.
