My phone recently started using more battery than normal. I installed a couple apps over the weekend. I suspect it could be one of those. What app can I use from the market that will pinpoint this for me? Thank you.

try "CPU spy"
i use a widget called battery info. - lots of good info provided in this little widget
Tried CPU spy and it doesn't tell me much or maybe I am not using it properly. If a specific app was draining my battery, is there anything that will pinpoint this?

Does this widget pinpoint battery loss from a specific app?

Try Badass battery, it will show you what apps use the most a well as the amount of wake locks, great app!

There are 2 apps I've used. Spare Parts and CPU Spy.
I found a good one after all and was able to control some hogs. Android Assistant breaks it down nicely.

I use lookout.
I only get 1hour of battery. Then it dies. Could lookout be the cause?

No. Does that mean it doesnt?

If your android system usage is high, it may still be the culprit. Try uninstalling lookout and see for yourself.

I uninstalled it
My battery is very good right now. And has been for the last hour or two.
But I like having the security, so I'm lost. Don't know what to use

i dont find it necessary to have a antivirus on an android. as long as your careful about what you download then you should be fine. you could also just get a firewall to use on certain apps or if you have MIUI there is one built in

Read all the review from Market for the apps u want to run. If still paranoid, search on xda first before downloading. No need for Lookout..
I use lookout, I have no issues with battery. I keep data off unless I need it.

This is the man developing for your phone. Just think about that for a second.

I've seen people say, "my phone was charging at 17mA," or, "my phone was discharging at 10mA."
What are these people using to find these stats? Or are they buried somewhere that I'm not seeing?

Battery monitor app/widget does a pretty good job of reporting those specs. It's free on the play store

Thanks! Trying to search for anything battery-related is almost impossible.
I know there are so many. Just search battery monitor in the store and its the first result battery monitor by 3c

Yes, that's what I use. And the dev is very quick with support if needed.

Hello, my battery started draining really fast recently, and in the usage statistics, it says 41% is due to cell standby, followed by 15% screen. Before the screen was the most draining factor. Anyone have an idea what's going on?

Check for any rouge apps you might have installed recently

Tunein Pro, Amazon and Beautiful widgets. I also got CS portable, but I make sure I kill everything after playing anything.
Thanks

Usually in android if u go to the battery app...you can click on screen-on so u can see how of ur use is being taken up by actually screen on...anyone know where to look...its nowhere to b found...
I couldn't find it either, I heard you needed to download an app to display it.
