The other day we talked to you about iOS 5 Battery Fix, a patch that should improve battery life on the iPhone 4S terminal with iOS 5/5.0.1 installed. Although its developer and some of those who tested it claim that the autonomy has been improved, a member of the Chronic Dev Team stands up that the tweak does not improve the autonomy of the terminals at all. The above picture was published on the blog of the developer of the SAM patch, with which you can hack an iDevice, and it should prove that the lines of code in the iOS 5 Battery Fix do not influence the battery autonomy in any way.
There has been a lot of hype recently about a 4S 'Battery Fix' – DHowett found that all it does is replace /System/Library/CoreServices/powerd.bundle/com.apple.SystemPowerProfileDefaults.plist. I looked for any possible impact of this. While this sounds good… we're changing the power settings right? The reality is that it does absolutely nothing. I wrote a small program to look at the active power settings (which is what the phone uses of the plist that is modified) and this is the result.
As you can see, there are actually only 4 settings that are used, and it should be noted that none of these settings were changed after installing the package and rebooting. The original and modified copies of the list are below.
Practically, DHowett, a member of the Chronic Dev Team, claims that the iOS 5 Battery Fix does not improve battery life at all, and the developer SAM claims that the patch replaces an iOS 5 file, but nothing more. I installed the patch in question yesterday, for now I can't draw any conclusions about its impact, so it remains to be seen what details will appear in the following days.
Chiar este o mare pacaleala… L-am instalat de 3 zile si nu se vede nimic…
normal frate ca e pacaleala. atatia ingineri de la apple nu au reusit pana acum sa rezolve problema(5.1 care se presupune ca o va rezolva,e inca beta) si reuseste asta cu aplicatia lui.. :))
Mai pacaleala ca mine nu a luat nimeni pe ziua de azi…. Dupa ce m-am chinuit 2 zile sa caut sa instalez app ,tweak-uri & other stuff…azi dimineata ajung acasa bag telefonu la incarcat (ca de obicei) doar ca fara sa imi dau seama il conectez la pc si nu la incarcator…. Si s-au dus pe apa p@/1 toate applicatiile mele…
si eu am instalat tweakul si pare sa fie mai rau decat inainte
Ca e pacaleala sau nu, eu sunt multumit de autonimia telefonului meu. In 8 ore de stat in standby pierd doar 2% din baterie ceea ce e destul de bine.
Frate nu are cum sa bage o aplicatie curent in baterie, cea ce poate face ea (aplicatia) puteti face si voi, adica sa inchideti aplicatiile mereu dupa ce le folositi.
De curiozitate, voi cam ce standby/usage time aveti pe 4s? La mine la stand by am avut 1day 9hrs si usage de 6ore 40 min asta cu JB facut. Fara JB cam tot asa era, in jur de o zi si cateva ore standby si cam 5-7 ore usage.
Personal sunt deocamdata multumit de bateria 4s-ului. Batranul 3gs nu reusea sa ajunga la un asa standby. Tel este 4s codat orange, si are versiunea mai noua de 5.0.1.
@zaone la tine cam cum este?
Florin tema e ca totul e variabil si discutabil…. Daca e in 3G 2g sau gsm!! Si apoi cat il butonezi!! Ce faci pe el ce nu!!
Cum poti sa faci hactivarea de care se vorbeste mai sus?
Trebuie sa fii naiv sa crezi ca un programel oarecare va fi mai bun decat reuseste apple sa scoata din baterie, cine zice ca e bun se autosugestioneaza.
@ Florin
Eu am scos putin peste 7 ore de utilizare si 1 zi si 7 ore de stand by,Asta cu 3G deactivat.Nu ajungeam niciodata la cifrele astea inainte de JB.
@Swat , @Claudiu
toate cele activate, email pe push. gps, 3g si wifi in permanenta deschise. Butonat …. pai orele de usage is butonarea. Si nu am sesizat diferente mari inainte si dupa JB
Pe 5.1, Beta 3 si nu mai am probleme nici cu semnalul nici cu bateria.
tweak’ul iso 5 battery fix ,este o mare porcarie,parerea mea! ieri l.am instalat,am utilizat telefonul intens,dar am observat o scadere prea rapida de al 40 si ceva% la 20,dupa un respring…deja nu mai exista in telefonul meu,inca astept pareri care sa ma contrazica,sa ne spuna si zaone parerea lui ca il are instalat 😉
