smart actions. use it

[92ehatch]

After lots of trials i found some smart actions combinations that make my battery go a long time.

Here is a shot of the battery screen. Phone on since 5 am. 4.5 hour round of golf with golflogix open. Web surfing texts calls.

After golf today.

So use this program to your advantage

Also golflogix alone used to put me at 0% after 4 hours. Being at 90% after 18 holes is astonishing

lol yeah. i myself set up background sync to turn off when screen is off. dont know how much that helps.
the other thing is by habbit i dont leave my gps and wifi on. so i really dont know what to use as triggers for smart actions. any suggestions would be great.

For golf i have it set

Screen off turns off gps data and sync

For home i have data off and screen off turns off background data and sync but leave wifi.

Work is turn off everything from 8 to 12 and 1 to 5 (lunch 12 to 1) mon through friday

Everyday at night 11p to 6a i have background data and sync off so i dont get waken by alerts

Smart Actions says my device "BIONIC" is not compatible!

I am reading this on the Bionic forum and mine is rooted. Can someone help please? Thanks.

I gave the action, disable background sync and GPS when display is off a try...anyone know if this has helped with battery life?

It all depends on how you use your phone. Set it up for your needs. Currently at 70% battery after 18 holes of golf and very light use after. Off charger for 15 hours

Is there any way to use this to reboot? I miss all the power button options on Eclipse.

There is really no need to turn GPS off unless you have an app that polls your location periodically & you can't stop the app. The GPS radio isn't like the wifi radio, which is actively searching for a connection. The GPS setting is basically Enabled (ready to go but not necessarily "ON") or Disabled (unable to be used by an app).
