I had downloaded JuiceDefender Plus and love the default settings you can choose from. I was wondering if anyone out there uses this app as well and has specific settings setup a certain way to give them the best battery life. My main problem I am having right now is when i use the Balanced setting or any other, if my screen is off and someone sends me a message with something attached, it doesn't download. Even when I turn on the screen and go to open the message, it just keeps saying "Downloading". So i have to have that person resend it after i shut down JuiceDefender. Anyone have any suggestions what I can change to fix it where i can still get my messages with attachments?

try advance mode and let wifi be preferred over 3g or 2g when available and most important disable connectivity temp while screen off

so i was looking on the wiki and saw a registry tweak to get more battery life. so i was in the registry and changed them all but one folder is not in my registery i changed the rest but the one in bold. will i still get extra battery life? also co8uld i add that folder and put that change in there?
Increase Battery Life
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\AsyncMac1\Parms] “DisablePowerManagement”=dword:1 Change to “DisablePowerManagement”=dword:0
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Irsir1\Parms] “DisablePowerManagement”=dword:1 Change
to “DisablePowerManagement”=dword:0
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\PPTP1\Parms] “DisablePowerManagement”=dword:1 Change to “DisablePowerManagement”=dword:0
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\L2TP1\Parms] “DisablePowerManagement”=dword:1 Change to “DisablePowerManagement”=dword:0
No don't bother add any reg entries, if its not there then it isn't being used. So no you won't gain any more battery life by adding a reg entry then disabling it.
I believe Irsir1 is an Infrared sensor. since the device doesn't have one, thats why you don't see the reg for it.
I have read about a few other options to increase battery life:
1. Turn off your data if you are not using it.
2. If you must have data on (Push E-mail), there is a setting that can be changed via Advanced Configuration. Go to Menu->More Settings->Connections. In there, select "Disconnect" and put 1 minute as the time. This will force data to shut down after syncing with the Outlook server.
3. Turn off "Receive all Incoming Beams"

Just for giggles.. What kind of battery life are you getting right now? Average usage, charge time, charge hold time during the average usage, etc?
i think like 7 hours but im at a place where i only get 1x right now which really sucks. is it true that when you have 1x your phone constantly searches for ev?
also since i did them settings for some reason my tower status is froze with the arrows and i cant even make a phone call whats goin on?
what are the default values on the connection settings on advance config? and where do you change these settings in the registry? i want to know because after i changed these settings my phone has been acting werid since i changed it and even i been changed it back to what it think was normal it still is acting weird. please help

Yes and no. It won't CONSTANTLY ping the towers for EV connection. It will do it on next tower sync. If you notice, it might get stuck in 1x for a while, but eventually switch back to EV even while sitting in the same spot.
Yeah, changing those settings can affect the signal. It would cause some starnge issues.
What settings? In what part of the registry? What part of Advanced Config?

This has been like this for the past several roms I've ran. Basically when the screen is off, I do not receive text messages. When I turn the screen on, I get all of my notifications basically instantly. Is there a setting I'm missing here that shuts off connection when the screen is off? Right now I'm on venusaur rom.

This happened to me once when I somehow had sync over 3G disabled, AND have the setting to disable wifi when the screen sleeps enabled
Check account & sync in settings, and check the advanced wifi menu in settings as well.
I always leave wifi off because I have an unlimited plan. So I do have it so wifi shuts off when the screen is turned off and to never auto turn on. Not sure if that has anything to do with not receiving texts.
In accounts and sync I do not see any sort of option to sync over 3G. Overall its enabled though.

Well, have you flashed any radios or anything like that on this phone?
I have not flashed any radios at all.

SMS has nothing to do with wifi or data. So it shouldn't affect the normal texts coming in.
MMS that is a different story.

Thats what I thought which is why I can't seem to think of what would be causing this. Sometimes it comes through four-five minutes late and other times it will not come through at all until I turn the screen on. This has only been happening relatively recently and I'm in a constant five bar area.
same
I have the same issue...but I am completely stock, unrooted.
(I am also in a great reception area, and this has started only in the past 2 weeks)

Yeah that sounds exactly like what's up with my phone. Past two weeks is a very good time frame for when this started happening.
I've been having this for a while regardless of rom :/
Are you in some kind of "power-save" mode?
No power save mode that I know of.
Best advice I can think of is to run a ruu again. Then clean install a Rom. That way you will be starting fresh.

Are any of you running anything like Juice Defender? Maybe you can download Juice Defender to help you find the option to allow screen off operations.
Alternatively, you can try going to: Settings, Power, Power Mode, change to High Performance.
> using my Rezound/Vigor
No Juice Defender or anything here.
And I just noticed this. I went to send a text message and turned the screen off. I went to check twenty minutes later to see if there was a reply and the timer was still going. After a few seconds of the screen being on it said text sent. This is a huge issue.
Yo
Did you try Gorillas suggestion above?
My Zound sleeps too deeply for me unless
Power setting is High Performance mode.
Worth a try....
I don't know where that option is. He said it was under power settings, but there is no option to select modes from there.
.
Nick,
Check Settings - Power - see 3rd item down from top "POWER MODE",
choose it and see Economy, Norbal, and High Performance.
Choose High Performance and your radios will behave better, at least
mine do.....
That option isn't there. When I click power it goes, battery status, battery level, battery use and fast boot.

Hi hoping some one can give me some help on this problem I have with my sIII. I keep getting this error\notification at the bottom of my screen "currently unable to download please try again later" I have installed watchdog to see if I can see where the message is coming from but didn't find any thing. Can anyone give me any suggestions on what is causing the message? Thanks
Maybe something trying to update but you have background data off?
How do it turn back-round data on?
Thanks.
setting

No I don't have any 3rd party battery applications. Where abouts in settings??

It's apparently in your smart settings or whatever area where you can set data limits for the device. Press the menu button while in there and you should be able to get extra options.

Ok I have data usage & data roaming and restrict backround data.
You want to make sure background data isn't restricted generally, and only turn it off on apps that are eating up your data if you're not on Unlimited.
Seems that to save power, the MediaPad x1 turns the wifi off when the screen is off. Incoming messages thus do not get through.
Anyone know how to force the wifi to stay on?

That's a standard android setting in the Wifi Advanced menu...
"Keep WLAN on during sleep"
Thanks!
(A) It's a pity that isn't the default (B) why hide such an important setting in such an obscure place?
Anyway, hopefully now I will not miss important messages.

I think every android phone I have had, had this setting by default. It's a powering saving thing, but yeah, pretty dumb....
