[Q] Juice Defender helps in battery life?

---

I am going to try JuiceDefender to see if I can get 14-16 hours of battery life.
I normally have 2-2 1/2 hours talktime daily and normal web browsing with Email/FB/Twitter

Has anyone used or has experience with this app?

Thanks

Just dl'ed it also. Only been using it a few days but I see a small improvement.

I've used it before and found it made me lose battery faster.

Could you elaborate?


I find the settings quite promising.

Wifi/Data control based on location/time/apps looks good. Don't know how they will help.

Yesterday I got through a full day with 10% left at 10pm.

Lets see if it stays that way

Well when I used it on my captivate it seemed it used quite a bit of power, more than it seemed to save by managing WiFi/3g. One found "green power" to be better as it is a lot less CPU intensive. Just my .02

I've been using JD on and off for a few days... It seemed to save some battery at first, but now it seems to be sucking it down. I left my Inspire on overnight and battery had drained by 50%! I also don't like how it handles wifi, always turns it off when I need it.

Been using Screebl (aggressive screen timeouts, but stays on depending on angle of phone) and Llama (location control for off/on wifi, gps, volume of ring and notifications) for a week now. Start with a full charge overnight, typical work day stats, on battery starting at 6:00 AM:
10-20 texts
8 hours wifi on (web, fb, twit, pandora, not all at once, just throughout the time wifi is on)
70 minutes talk time
background data on for syncing two google accounts, push
background data on for weather on stock clock widget 6 hour refresh
background data off for EVERYTHING else (manual refreshes on twit, fb, etc.)
end of day status: 8:00 PM 10% battery
this was best day out five, worst was 8 hours and the phone cried foul with 15% warning. I think there was more game playing that day. Otherwise very happy with the results so far.

I run AR 2.1 with juice defender oc 1.2ghz and get around 20 hours average on one charge. Turn off auto brightness and run it at about 20% also
