Re: Fix battery time from under 7 hours to over 9 days!
 
Are there any battery cases for the n900 yet?
Like this one for the iphone:

But since the phone is quite big, a case like this would make it less practical...

There is the current mAh remaining (285) and design capacity (1245). So, with new battery the full load will be that 1245 mAh. There was also a percentage mentioned in there, but you can also calculate it just from those two, so 23 % charge level.

And even if it is a hardware bug, it might be able to be bypassed with software fix. In any case you can contact Nokia customer support about the problem and see what they tell you to do.

Everytime I have used wifi I do ifconfig wlan0 down as root in xterm. I have gotten very nice battery time lately even with moderate use. Many phone calls, a few sms, listening to music for about an hour, web browsing, taking photos and a short video clip I got over 20h of battery time.

Many say that it takes about 5 cycles before the battery gives full power. In my case it seems that after 10 or more cycles I am getting max of it.

i only have a 2G connection, but even so my battery is still at 80% by 14:30pm, despite being continuously connected to the wifi for five hours now.


You can hook up to your company wifi on a non-issued device??? Security! ;)

Ok guys, just to back up for a second, are you recommending that once I finsih with WiFi, to disconnect it, then shut off the phone? This will make sure it's not still searching for Wifi even if i don't have it connected?
