Moment of Truth:
My test with this new update: Discharged at 8:30am
Played music from 9:20am -> 12:30pm. Battery say 85% (
lshal|grep percen
)
SMS 20times, Battery still say 80%
used qtirreco and left it on for 2hours. Go online for 1hour 30mins (email, browsing, and IDLE), battery say 60%
Screen light is 2Bars.
Played Angry bird for 1hour, battery say 35%
Played Solitaire and other games for 30mins battery say 31%
Leave it on Idle with a few tasks running.
Now is 8:16pm, battery say 30%
Edit: Now is 8:52pm, battery say 22%
so which meant 12hours and battery is 30% left from 97% full.
Which meant less hours than older firmware. Right now with the old firmware, the battery would still say 40 - 50% left with that usage.
So it is somewhat 10-20% of less power efficient. This probably related to the spiking up CPU usage all the time when opening task.
As for Bluetooth, it is not fixed. Still get the same problem while connected to my bluetooth headset.
Edit:
Current status: Charging at 9:15pm, battery level is at 20%
Tomorrow testing light usage.
