Is it possible power load has been chopped in half?

Going to get battery graph now and provide some figures :D.

I hope someone answers that rep because i have no idea haha.

My guess is if the EMMc stays at constant voltage then it can't be that, but if it changes, that could explain a bit.


Battery graph seems exactly the same, so does power usage :S lol but the battery seems to be lasting much longer, might see how many days i can get it to go for :D

Also if people want help flashing with the flashing tool on windows based (Going to have to be 32 bit) computers, i will happily assist them,

Like i said i did firmware and eMMC.

Hmm strange that, still at 1 notch off :/ and its just not changing to be honest, i think i could get a week out of it at this rate.

Impossible to evaluate just yet, the firmware has only been out for a day. As a pessimist, I'd say don't get your hopes up :)

But guessing based on BatteryGraph, it seems the battery is draining just about at the same rate as it was with the previous firmware. (Did a clean flash yesterday).

I can confirm there is a huge battery boost.
I have not charge my phone since yesterday morning, and It's on 40% now.
I used to last 9 hours on moderate to heavy use.

You can be fairly sure I spent some time playing with PR1.2 after flashing too! Used 3g/wifi sound/games everything.
Battery is lasting amazing.

I 2nd (or is it 17th :p) the better battery life. All this complaining about bugs and no one mentions this critical improvement!

Edit: I performed the update OTA, no reflashing

I have had the complete opposite. Flashed to 1.2 and battery now lasts no more than 2 hrs :O

On leaked pr1.2 I could get 2 days. Just re-flashed and did the emmc too. See if that helps over the next few days.

Huraaaaaaayyyyyy some sucess, some fail, guys drain your phones and try a full charge with USB and your n900 off, i know its daft but i have noticed some differences when letting the device charge slowly,

Im happy that people are having some big boosts, but i know that mine turned out pretty huge lol.
