currently, batterygraph was uninstalled when i ran smartreflex. just notice the cpu usage by the system info widget app.

because of 2 reboots, kinda hard to determine improvements, reboot eats a considerable battery power.

The reason, it is obviously unstable.

BatteryGraph version 0.3.0 does also monitor the average CPU load. It is currently in extras-testing (and will soon be in Extras)

UPDATE: upon changing the values on /etc/pmconfig (smartreflex)

men that was exciting! after enabling smartreflex, 3 reboots ocuured on my device, on the last one, the n900 just turn off. With the usual response to this, i switch on the device, the device did not reboot. i removed the battery and install, the device did not boot up.

i waited for an hour, did the same thing, but still the n900 did not boot.
then i just said, "uh oh!"

well i am a jolly guy, instead of being pissed, i think of another way.

i tried charging the device. the n900 lit up the nokia logo, but did not boot. this is telling me, that the n900 is not dead, so i went to the wiki page and re-read all of the flashing of n900 documentation.

after 4-10mins, my n900 is factory new! and shining sparkly too!

im currently reinstalling all my apps, and found out that "battery eye" is OPT!! weeeeeee!!!!!

in posting this, i am not saying that smartflex is not a good idea, actually its effective, im just so lucky this day that instead of getting unexpected reboots, i got an unexpected re-flash!!! LOL!!

im totally happy that my n900 is fully operational again.

so.....is anyone still with me on changing the values or enabling smartrefles???

i dont know if its smartreflex itself causing these issues. but i have had no problems with it being activated on my device. the only time i had a reboot was with firefox and that was the last time i used it ... i do have the nightly fennec builds instead of FF1.0. however i have had no problems with SR. it may be an app that is having trouble and may need the CPU to stay more active than necessary.

Everyone should first test few days, or even weeks with those "echo" manual instructions before trying to make it permanent to /etc/pmconfig. If SmartFlex is really causing problems in some devices, that can happen (gabby131) and a device cannot even boot up anymore.

which is the better app?
battery eye or battery graph

do you prefer battery eye or battery graph

Just noticed something with WIFI-switcher:
If I activate WIFI-switcher, my battery drains quicker.

Currently it's only an initial theory, but has anyone noticed this as well?

I activated WIFI-switcher overnight (to disable WIFI+lib), and noticed a ~5% drop for ~5 hours.

Currently after disabling WIFI-switcher (only WIFI disabled) after nearly ~1,5 hours it still hasn't dropped even 1%.

This still isn't conclusive, I will test it again today overnight.

I prefer BatteryGraph.
Much more features.
One very convenient feature is to export even 21 days worth of graph as a PNG image file, like here.
