[APP] BetterBatteryStats – Helps You Gain Bettery Battery Life

Battery drain has always been a huge issue and a major topic of discussion. Trying to find the sweet spot for your usage and your device can sometimes be a little tricky. Not to mention time consuming, especially if you are constantly flashing new ROMs, kernels and modems. BetterBatteryStats is an application written by chamonix from XDA, that is designed to help you achieve better battery life that we all so desire.

The apps purpose is to help you monitor and adjust critical precesses in your device to stop unwanted drain.

BetterBatteryStats is calling the “batteryinfo” service of Android to retrieve data already lying there without generating overhead.

The application is focused for Froyo, Gingerbread and Honeycomb versions of Android. If you happen to still be one of those poor souls on an even further outdated version of Android, this won’t help you out one bit. It is still in its early beta stages but is progressing nicely –

Changelog
– v0.5.1: Improved performance (process and wakelocks were slow on single cpu devices), better name resolution for processes / wakelocks adds more insight to the origin (e.g. previously stated process *wakelock* now tells from what apk ist was held)
– v0.5.0: Added “Other Usage” stats
– v0.4.0: Added preferences for default selection, removed Network Usage due to non resolved issue #1
