i290 battery life is bad, truly the worst phone EVER!

I've had this phone for 4 days and I hate to death. It shows only the last 20 calls (I do about 50 per day) and I have to charge it every night. I've had phones for $24.99 which hold the load better than this piece of junk.

in any case, can anyone recommend a better phone? Is there a list of phones compatible boostmobile somewhere?

-Edited thread title, added tags.

If you make 50 calls per day and each is about 5 minutes, then you have reached the nominal life of the battery of the phone:

There are other variables - the signal strength, other use, etc.. Since you have only had the phone for a few days, you should see all swap for something you like better.

    If you read the report you notice there is nothing on the battery. Do not post these reports unless you have been asked to do or have a problem identified in the report for which you need assistance.

    Your battery information is reported in the power section of the information system located in your Utilities folder. Monitor user activity to see if you can identify any process consuming a lot of time processor.

    Before Mavericks

    Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select all processes in the drop process .  Click the % CPU column heading twice to display in descending order.  If find you a process that uses a large amount of time processor (> = 70,) then select the process, and then click the quit icon in the toolbar.  Click the force quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Don't forget to mention the name of the runaway process, so you can find the cause of the problem.

    Mavericks and later versions

    Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select all processes in the menu display .  Click the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click the % CPU column heading twice to display in descending order.  If you find a process that uses a large amount of CPU %, then select the process, then click on the quit icon in the toolbar.  Click the force quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Don't forget to mention the name of the runaway process, so you can find the cause of the problem.

    Reinstall OS X or do run these items:

    Try these in order to test your system after each see if it is back to normal:

    1. a. reset the PRAM and NVRAM on your Mac.

    b. Macs with Intel processors: reset of the controller (SMC) system management

    2. restart the computer in Safe Mode, and then restart again, normally. If this does not help, then:

    HD recovery start: restart the computer and after the buzzer, press on and press and hold the

    COMMAND and R keys until it appears the Utilities menu screen.

    3 fix the hard disk and permissions: select startup drive in the Utilities menu utility. Fix the hard drive and the permissions as follows.

        When the recovery menu appears, select disk utility and press the continue button. After loading disk utility select it

        back from Macintosh HD entry of the list on the left.  Click first aid button in the toolbar. Wait for the operation

        ends, then quit disk utility and back to the main menu.

    4 reinstall OS X: restart from HD recovery Select reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, then click on the continue button.

    Note : You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest to use Ethernet if possible because it's three times faster than wireless.


  • Classic BlackBerry Battery Life reduced considerably since the last update

  • BlackBerry Q10 Q10 - the battery life low, overheating, restarting the device.

    Hello

    My camera has been upgraded to 10.3 towards the end of February, I think.  Battery life was low at first, but eventually improved to an acceptable level.  (Acceptable = able to make it through the day without charge.)

    In recent days, the battery life was horrible.  At 01:00 this morning, it was fully charged and from 05:00, it's about 40%, without any use at all.  All idling with the screen off.

    I read some suggestions in the forums.  I deleted all my email accounts, restarted the unit, then added them.  I also confirmed that there are no other applications running that might be draining the battery.

    I bought the unit directly from BlackBerry back to November, so I have no support available carrier.

    So sometimes after typing a message, I hung up and he begins to restart.  I'm quite sure physical were issued with the phone - it is never dropped or roughed up somehow.

    When I look at my use of the battery, I see the remaining 38%.  System of 26%, and PIM services is 8.6%.

    Someone more detailed suggestions on how to fix this?

    Bryan.

    Hello and welcome to the BlackBerry support fourms!

    Try to veiw of the last 12 hours of the CPU usage. The heat is probably high CPU load.

    I also recommend that you recharge the device through BlackBerry link software. Good luck and keep me posted.

  • Lightroom 3 - the worst program ever released Adobe...

    If anyone cares to read this, I'll be the first to say DO NOT UPDATE!

    I'm spreading the word - facebook, Word of mouth, every professional photographer in THE I know, articles, etc.

    You have to raise hell to get changes.

    Lets see if Adobe will do something about these issues...

    I thought that Adobe created "beta" for a reason - to smooth out all of the kinks before they put out the disc. Nope.

    I waited for them to put updates on many issues since I bought the drive about a month ago... Still waiting Adobe!

    It's awful to look at my photos take literally 4-5 minutes to open.  Worse still, is the time it takes to record Photoshop CS5 in Lightroom - I timed it 14 min. FOR a PHOTO!

    I feel like the old time, when I made video - went out for coffee and came back to find the rotation of the wheel of death still turn.

    Oh, and I learned to speak in India today too! 3.5 hours - with no resolution to my problems.

    Susheel consulted my computer remotely - seen my catalog - see 73 000 images and request "are you a photographer?  REALLY?  Did you REALLY just ask me that Susheel?

    Why I HATE Lightroom 3 - Let me count the ways:

    1 adobe closed their technical support in Portland (I mentioned several times, and ALWAYS had my issues resolved.)  They always went above and beyond the Protocol - and we are sitting here and wonder why the U.S. economy hangs), now you have an anonymous person in India or the Philippines (which have no extension, no email, no even a direct line so when you sit on a call to 3.5 hours and must remind you start all repeatedly...) Dear Adobe - we live in 1980? You are suppose to be a LEADER in technology. 

    I am morally against outsourcing, my work is all about the death of American industrial capitalism.  In a time when the United States are in crisis, Adobe is working on moving things out of the USA.  I am outraged - you can't find someone in the US EVEN IF YOU TRIED!  The best I could do was to speak to someone in sales-wow. What makes say - of the American "well look and sound good to sell our product, but when it comes to something as technology advanced using the product and troubleshooting, we prefer to use someone without extension in another country.

    2. they don't offer support for anyone who is running on a network (they expect professionals to work off their 'c' drive or the internal hard drive to the Mac.  HA!

    3. they continued to blame my network - although my network doesn't work well, there is no limitation of access, will open directly in photoshop just fine (and fast!), absolutely worked perfectly in Lightroom 2... Yes, it's the network, riiight.
    4 Lightroom 3 is corrupt files when opening in Photoshop CS5 - if I get the chance to open
    5. when I get a photo open, it loses its filters once re-recorded in Lightroom (I sort my photos to help me navigate through the masses)-it's really bad to my workflow. When I shoot 800 images in the studio in one day - I DON'T want to go back and fish around to find a modified version that has lost its flag...

    6. I have been promised to receive a phone call 'next week' because there is no extension can I call to move forward.  I'll keep you updated - allow you to know if Anthony keeps his word.  He couldn't tell me who was going to call me, or when, but he "assure" me going to happen.

    I won't hold my breath

    Yes, it's always for lack of anyone else. It's never because they made a stupid decision to buy before making absolutely sure that the software will work for them.

    Looks like nobody is willing to take over their own actions these days.

    Thus, by this logic, Adobe doesn't have to assume ALL pushing this hack at the door?  Given that they had a ready RC almost INSTANTLY after that release should be sufficient to show that they KNEW they were pushing the rubbish at the door.  Indeed, Adobe is responsible for providing a product of buggy about bugs that CROSS platforms so it must be not the hardware of the user base of design code, or whatever it is that a given user has done.  Of course some systems may have patterns to make these issues more apparent, but it is on Adobe to treat as they should publish limitations and known configurations that can lead to potentially more problems... but these have a confession and accepts responsibility for the original version of the buggy... btw, release notes to be where we'd find info oddities and the way around post requirements being set in stone and to encourage the lowest common denomonator user.

    One more thing... LR is marketed not not like a PRO TOOL, it is sold as a tool for the average to the level hobby photographer.  It's also huge appeal to the market pro is a happy accidentally-on-purpose thing... but to rebuke people who do not feel it is their job to troubleshoot a commercial app is completely unreasonable... but more the American consumer is the largest group of beta tester on the planet... I wonder how our counterparts from the EU are fairing as ironically, they have consumer protection laws more severe... try to push a product of shit out in the German market. Hey-Hey, yes good luck with that.

    In fact, I would say that this isn't the worst software that adobe has ever pushed the door, but perhaps the worst photography software that they never sent as RTM.  Many, many associated PDF apps and utils actually could be worse and we will get in what they have done in Flash and Dreamweaver after this acquisition.  The closest analogue to you, I can see if that what is arrived at the products Norton post Norton bought by Symmantec.

    However, I am willing to give time to Adobe at this address because they did not have ready RC almost immediately.  If they did?  No way, but maybe fans put marketing patches and company in the position where he was to meet the release date, even if the problems were discovered in the pipeline already and that there would be a period of 3 to 9 weeks before the issues have been resolved for the most part.  But they did well, even those who ran the beta ran the 30 - day trial found no issues because they simply has not used this part of the program enough bugs to manifest their effects insofar as you the user realize something weird happens.

    I'm too excited so beyond belief that I depend on LR for my company, I can however work around it for a while, but I don't make any money as a photographer I use photography for my business issues, while causing huge levels of frustration, are not fatal... yet... as far as I know is I don't want to not come back to LR2.7 because I've done so work onLR3 / LR3.2RC already and the tools are indeed higher in LR3.x... When they work, and that's the rub.  So are many here say those who have these bugs affecting their income/workflow bought in this to save time and to leverage the jouississez NR/sharpness and I mean improved adjustment tools.  I do not use profiles of lens to all really so nothing special for me here.

    I have a question... I'm sure this has been asked and we answered but, eh, why not one more time because research is so "haaaard.

    but this problem affects all types of files?  I'm shooting DNG but can pass to PEF if necessary and convert import, but would rather just shoot DNG.  I'm not ready to move to the JPG format, because if I have to I have giving up too much control over my images, so I would like to LR2.7.

    In addition, what Camera RAW versions have been used in the beta and what versions are used with LR3.  I know that I've upgraded to ACR6.2 (?), or whatever the latest version.  I understand there are a ton of factors at play in these bugs but I doubt ACR is like my ancient version PS CS3 of Photoshop has no problems, of course, it uses the old version of ACR 4.6 (?) once again sorry I forgot which version exactly but it is trivial and can be determined.

    I love LR because I don't need the advanced features of PS all that often, PS is always a pleasure tool to have a backup for complicated plans if I don't have time to really go into it I would like to...

    But in general I guess I'm saying, Adobe had to know in advance the LR3 original RTM because they have ready RC almost instantly.  Of course, previous versions of LR also had the same experience a few that bugs were, well, not too powerful I guess.  I was happy with LR since the 1.x versions, but this version is painful to support... and I I posted previously I don't live with the people of refund from Adobe, likely personal off-supported who receive bonuses to talk about customers to get a refund, I will simply place a stop payment with Mastercard... that's why I use, so I don't have to leave businesses to waste my time wading through their paperwork.  And btw, Adobe knows that the client will WIN any chargeback because this piece of evidence of a known to be defective product was sold to the consumer and the customer can even the mfg to address the problem that only they have failed to provide timely.  So, if you're not happy just "go to the mattresses"... use the hammer of chargeback.  The bonus is any chargeback to the consumer cost the retailer, Adobe in my case, $35 when they lose...

  • iPhone 5 with Canadian SIM a battery life short when in the USA

    I have an iPhone 5 with SIM card from a Canadian supplier (Koodo, the cheaper version of Tellus).

    When I travel to the USA, I noticed a much quicker battery discharge rate, approximately 1.5% per hour, when I use the phone in the Canada.

    In the USA, I disable cell and remove most of the applications of memory and minimize location services. Nothing seems to help.

    When the last in America, I removed the SIM tray and battery drain rate is back to normal!

    Why iOS even converses with the SIM card when cellular service is disabled in the settings?

    Any suggestions? Remove the SIM card is a bit of a pain!

  • Maximize battery life flash by using the Scriptures of sector size file. USB and SD card storage limits Cap

    I use the sbRIO-9636 with 512 MB of non-volatile storage (Flash I presume?).  I'm not find the size of the sector in the Spec Docs, I found it, and Measurement & Automation Explorer does not display it no more, and I can't find one physical property of RT to make it.  I built a utility 'RIO leader Writer"for the text written to the buffer until the sector size is full or until the file is closed using the VI, but it would be useful to know the sector size.  For now, I'll assume 32 KB as I read the 9606 uses 16 k with its 256 MB drive.

    I have attached the utility (a single LV 2012 (VI) in case someone else would be useful.  I promise you there better performance or memory efficient, but its purpose was to save the Flash of my application, which supports the recording of data CAN (1000 + packets/sec) to the file, and it does that very well.  I continued to save the CAN data without it, with each written separately CAN package (~ 40 characters / record log, or ~ 820 written by sector of 32 KB), I probably would have started to lose areas in the next few weeks was not that of wear levelling - maybe even with wear leveling.  With that, life shouldn't be a problem (although the ability remains one, I can switch to USB storage if it is).

    Come to think of it, this can help with all the data being quickly to any player, as all readers use sectors (or blocks of sectors), assuming that you can sacrifice the RAM requirements to register your system hard disk (or to).

    Storage issues more:  What is the limit of the capacity of the SD and USB function storage on the sbRIO-9636 map?  The specification mentions support SDHC, but does not say specifically THAT SDXC is not supported.  It does support the monstrously huge SDXC cards or the max for SDHC (32 GB)?  In addition, with SD and USB storage, is size of block review?  LabVIEW has a property, I can read for all this that I don't see?

    Thank you!

    Hi Erik,

    I was wrong, we have a LabVIEW function that will find the size of area for a specific drive, it's the Get Volume Info.vi (link). You can run this VI and the flash drive on the sbRIO to find the minimum size of sector for reference entries.

    Regarding external drives to the USB port, I think you are right in your assumption about the limits of FAT16 and FAT32. Keep in mind there are also limits on file size of 2 GB or 3 GB of maximum file size.

    Most of the USB-to-IDE adapters works for the sbRIO (or cRIO), but USB-to-SATA is not supported to work on sbRIO. You can always try to use a SATA-USB HARD drive, but it might not work.

    I worked in it for several years (currently JUST a consumer), so I have a bit of technical knowledge.  With this in mind, I am so frustrated with Windows 8 operating system.  I can't tell you how many times I had to do a Google search on how to fix something or find a work around.  For example, printing a PDF file.  Seriously.  It seems that a menu item is available with a right click.

    Also, couldn't get my email from GoDaddy to work from the subway or office.  It works market.  I changed POP IMAP, but it's incompatible.  Enamel works sometimes on Metro - but I often need to manually synchronize and even in this case it does not always work.  Sometimes emails will go to the intended recipient, sometimes they did not.  A mystery.

    I feel that this is a Beta or "overview of consumption."

    Only I use Windows 8 is because I got a new laptop which has been preloaded w/Windows 8.  Big disappointment for me.  Seriously considering to return the laptop for a load with Windows 7.

    Suffice it to say...

    Touch users have a hard time to 'right-click' (without stylus).   Did you "find" Win - K?

    What do you use for default e-mail client Desktop?   WLMail is always available.

  • I hate windows 8. It is the worst program ever - how do 7 - which I never used.

    I have a desktop at home and at work with xp, that I love.  This new hp laptop is great, except for this lousy windows 8, which I hate.  It is difficult to use and did not get more easy with the time.  I would like to go back to xp, but not because of microsoft.  I've never used windows 7, but it happened to be better than this pig.   help (wish I had bought a macbook air)

    If it's Pro 8 then there are downgrade rights associated with the supplied license, this does not apply to the base license Windows 8.

    Microsoft however do not help in this process that you can not the software from them you will need to source it yourself, but when you come to authenticate you must call the authentication service to get a key.
