It's just that you seemed so confident that everyone gets this issue, so I figured I may as well set-up the workaround, irrespective of observing it for myself.

*whatever happened to admiral0's prior competing app?
Let's see; you get billboard and if you don't have the issue i'll refund you the billboard charge

Actually maybe I might have exaggerated on everyone getting the issue but the thing is who ever I have seen post usually has this same issue; its really the most common bug that I have seen around so hence my exuberance to it

admiral0's app still can be used but hasn't been worked on; you can use wolke's .deb files in the last few pages of the thread for it to work on pr1.3

Jesus you're quick with the responses, it's like you've got some synapses wired up to TMO nowadays or something! ;-P
Anyway, I've bookmarked my last post as a reminder to re-investigate this issue in the future...
No need for the refund, I'm quite sure I'll have the bug, & even if I don't, I'm sure it's an app that's worth every cent.
Sounds like lpsmagic has fallen way behind in utility/stability, I paid for a test acct & builds, but never had time to test until recently.
Whereupon I found that his site was down anyway, this was our recent email exchange:

Don't worry if you have more pressing matters, I'm not in any huge rush.
I'd like to test a recent build one day though, provide feedback & perhaps donate more.
So you know, much of the harmattan SDK isn't accessible ATM (long story), there's someone temporarily hosting it though I believe.

Noted!
I haven't had a response from him since (18-days ago), so I guess he took my response as "forget about it completely"

Haha anyway last off-topic post here before ajalkane jumps on us

The .deb file for lpsmagic is in this post...

Try it out if you are in open mode when you have your device back otherwise just stick with Billboard which provides an easier path while retaining the ability to add more functions

Perhaps stopping BME does not work well if it's done immediately after the battery drop. Right now I stop BME immediately and wait 10 secs before starting it again.

I'll try to modify the script, and put a 5 second pause before stopping BME. Then 5 second pause before starting it again.
With 5 second pause before stop/start, same problem. With 10 second pause before stop, 5 second pause before start, same problem.

I will try thedead's configuration with 10 secs before stop and start and see if it helps.

No. I started developing it, but got frustrated with the non-working APIs. And as I don't have use for that feature myself, I wasn't motivated to continue.

Its been a long time since I have been able to run down my battery so just to post an update of today

- Battery was at 31% and fell to 4% with the battery low banner

- Opened terminal and as root typed:
Code:
sleep 10
/sbin/stop bme
sleep 10
/sbin/start bme
- Battery recovered to 13% (note the symmetry: lost 18% but gained 9%; I don't know whether this means anything)

So still lost a substantial amount of battery life but managed to recover enough to make it to a charging port


Edit: I tried a reboot too but was slightly late so rebooted at 12%, after reboot it was 8%.

As long as we're talking about this battery level problem, I have another anecdote:

I was logging the battery levels while I was charging the battery. It went normally up-to about 84%, from where it abruptly jumped to 100%.

So this is perhaps the flip-side of the sudden drop, just in another direction. Not sure what it means, and I could not try if restarting BME would have changed the percentage (I was sleeping when it happened).

Yup its pretty irritating at high charges too...For example, the battery is at 96%, do 3 reboots consecutively and it drops to 70%.

Some times one reboot itself is enough for it to drop from 96% to 86%...

I too get that stupid jump at times from 84% to 100%...I just leave it to charge...


Why can't Nokia ever get a bme right
