all depends on usage and whats enabled

for me i disable bluetooth and leave GPS and wifi off when im at work

i can take the phone off charger when i get to work @ 6:45am have the phone automatically check for emails every 10mins play some games at smoko and lunch plus checking emails and make it home with a little bit left @ 4:20pm

what battery life are people getting with there htc/android?

Depends on the phone, usage, etc. With mine, I'll get about 1+1/2 days with pretty heavy usage, Wifi, etc. Can stretch it to 2 if I don't use it too often. I charge every night anyways so it doesn't bother me. Unfortunately the days of getting 5 days out of a full charge is long gone and left behind with the old 3315 Nokia's. However what these phones do these days it's not surprising battery life isn't the same

lol Dion cause i saw edit i wont spank ;)

agreed Luke i use mine like a micro computer when im away from my desktop this is my palm pc

with Android and the use of Team Viewer i can control any of the PC's in my My Partners list

edit: I'm just being a dick now.

My iPhone 4 lasts about the same, 1 day with heavy usage, 2 days without.

No surprises, most modern day smart phones have around the same usage. Unfortunately battery technology has remained relatively stagnant over the years in comparison

yeh sweet, i get a full day of heavy usage with full screen brightness.

gotta say you would think battery technology would improve.

Rooting the phone, installing a custom ROM and a modified kernel will give you better usage, how much exactly I'm unsure but there's gains to be had

I've got my email set up to 'push', so it doesn't check it on it's own, but I get it as my email account receives it.

Sounds like it may be a network issue Damo, my phone is fast on the net pretty much everywhere.

Edit: Just ask the people at Kadina who stole my phone and were watching Redtube on it LOL.

    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
    • Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 🤣, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up
