[Q] Handcent / GosmsPro about Battery - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
Which of these 2 messaging app use less battery plz ?
Thanks

doesn't matter, too insignificant to mention. I'm sure its maybe 1 or 2% above stock if at all, and each other. Its not a launcher, so it won't affect battery much

[Q] Will more homescreens eat up more battery??

Hello,
I'm on lite'ning rom 2.2 and i use launcherpro plus cause it looks great.
Now... if i use like 6-7 homescreens with calender, friends, facebook etc...will it eat more battery than using 1-2 homescreens?
It should not right? cause the program itself is running...
Any thoughts are welcome..

Well, mainly depends on what you put on the homescreens I guess... If the widgets sync more, update more, etc it will (most likely) consume more battery...

maybe my android os = 50 % :S
I dont think that the pure amount of homescreens drains more or less battery, but ofc. the more active widgets(Twitter, News, ...) you use, the more battery will be used.
More homescreens makes the process use up more memory. With you using more widgets, your Launcher Pro will use up more memory. More memory usage equals more battery power is necessary. So if you USE those homescreens they'll suck your battery dry.
Btw, you made two threads.
Will asking the same question twice eat up more forum space?

It's not about more Home screens but the widgets in them. More widgets=More battery drain, especially the one like Accuweather which continuously searches for place and refresh temp at an specified interval unless you stop automatic refresh.

and i was wondering if there is a app that can tell me what app/service is using up my battery.
i know there is the default battery usage in settings.
but i was looking for something more advanced.

BetterBatteryStats.
Try Battery Monitor Widget...
just look in Android Market
I use Battery Indicator (pro) it works really well. Very small and unobtrusive.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
i think it depends on wich locker style u chose and wich color the background has
and of corse it will drain battery everything u do on ur phone even wake it up and watch the current time drains battery
and because u have more features than in the stock locker it might take some more juice from ure battery but i think in the end it wont depend on wich locker ure using
nevertheloss there are apps wich may let u check out weather an app uses much juice or not

[Q] iphone-like background apps management

Is there any way I can make my android behave like iphone does with apps and processes when I'm noy using them?
On ios 6 and previous (in ios7 it is optional) background app processing is disabled, so battery when not using the phone isn't almost wasted.
I dont really need that full multitasking android provides, but I do need better battery life. I've tried greenify but it does not get any improvement for me.
Thanks a lot!
Bump!
