Hi guys, I'm just curious if any of you has tried this awesome launcher on an xperia mini pro and could share his/her experience with it, as I'm seriously thinking on giving it a go, but first I want to know if it would be really worth it for a mini pro, does it drains battery fast? How fluid does it go? Anyone?
Well, it works fine
I've tried it !
it's a heavy launcher. eats a lot of ram, battery drain fast, n sometimes lag.

Thanks hehe, I'll have that in mind, but I think I'll pass if it's a battery drainer and ram eater D: I tried really hard to make my batt last 2+ days lol

Then you'll have to pass it cuz this one's a serious batt drainer and eats a whole lot of RAM, but it has a great and cool UI!
it's almost impossible to make battery last for 2 days or more....even with most minimal usage.

Hey guys,
Ive owned several android devices ;
First x10, second SGS, third SGS2 and finally ive downgraded to an x10 mini.
Many reasons for the downgrade , the biggest of which I felt I should maybe be spending more time with my fiance rather than tinkering with my phone and I also wanted a smaller phone that felt more robust, which this totally fits the bill.
Now, I got it yesterday. I wasted no time in rooting it, less time in getting xrec and cwm on it and next up was firing a GB rom on (at present, gingerDX).
The rom itself is great, ive just wondered something ;
Since I want to spend less time tinkering with my phone, what ROM (please dont make this a debate) would you guys say is best for battery life and longevity? Whilst battery life should be okay, im used to less than 1% overnight standby without data or wifi on and this drained about 20pc last night.
If its something to put up with I will, no gripes. Just wondered if there was something else I could do to lessen the drain (and ive read many posts, all usually come to the same conclusion).
Finally, wifi drops every 5 mins or so. Almost immediately picks back up but anyone know why? Think my old x10 did it too.
Other than that, this wee thing is pretty nifty. The speaker on it is rediculously good, especially considering its size!
Cheers folks
Pete

well congrats to your new phone. and the battery. is pretty much the weakest part of the phone. the best battery life saver is to have the wifi and data toggle switch and no live wallpapers. and set your cpu in deep sleep very low and use some kind of Governor like interactive or smartass
hope that helped

The best solution is freezing apps with Titanium or something similar.My choice is GingerDX

isn't that a mini rom? i thought the op just bought a mini pro...
Hey guys thanks for the replies, to be fair on the wee thing the battery life is understandable... I would probably die quickly too if my heart was that small!
I might not have looked in the right areas and cant find anything but generic answers, but does anyone know why every 5 mins or so the wifi drops and then reconnects itself say ten seconds later? Been trying to download some large files and none ever finish as they take longer to download and also dont wanna be using my data connection for that lol

Playing NOVA 3 for more than 1 hour, calling for more than 1 hour... and still getting 12h of battery life seems pretty good too me... I don't know that there are many phones around here that can offer more.
Sure the phone idle may suck some more juice than needed, but hey, it's already quite decent by my book

Hello everyone
I have been using an x10i since the past 2 yrs
I started using custom roms when Sony released the gb update cuz it was laggy
My problem is that now no matter which Rom I choose
A full charge hardly lasts an hour
Consider me a heavy user
& I have used every way that is out there to calibrate my battery
From using calibration apps to wiping stats using recoveries & overcharging battery
Is there any solution to my problems??

It is very simple, you know you are heavy user, you know you have used your battery for 2 years.
Do you know that that means your battery's life cycle has come to an end?
Go buy a new battery.

Original would be better and also you can try bigger battery as you are a heavy user. Check Accessories section of X10 but it will increase your phone size and bulk
try this solution FIRST
goto cyanogen mod settings in ther performance->cpu settings->governor->select interactive....

It seems battery is always an issue with android. But if you're using a stock ROM and kernel with light usage it's kinda strange maybe the battery is weak. Are you playing games? If so, it drains the battery so fast.

It's ok mate well listening to music while doing stuff really drains the battery. Try to adjust some settings like brightness, wifi, 3g, to maximize battery life. and monitor the battery first even it's secondhand try not to listen to music for long time and see if the battery drains a lot during standby mode. My battery lasts for 3 hours playing temple run 2

You should not let the phone discharge past 30 percent battery. Never completely dry your battery, you have damaged it.
Get more batteries, and a wall battery charger. They are cheap, you can forget about plugging your phone, and you can carry extra batteries. Never completely discharge them, and charge them full each time.

Like the title says,my amaze has a very low battery life.It us an unbranded amaze running "Energy" rom with Stock kernel.
I am having only 3-4 hours battery life(with screen on).It was good with gingerbread but after flashing ICS on it(unofficial way),it got worse.I tried other roms as well e.g "Android revolution","Energy with both faux and stock kernel but battery life was still same.
I also calibrated the battery.
Now you guys have to tell me what to do.I tried my best.
Thanks in advance.

The Xperia u has a smaller screen,a lower clocked processor, you can't expect the amaze to be the same in terms of battery life. It's like comparing the mileage of a Honda civic and a mustang. There is no magical way to double your battery life, but you can lower screen brightness, underclock, etc

But it was not as bad on gingerbread as it is on ICS.It became worse only after updating to ICS.
