I have dalvik installed but have not installed any applications (and maybe should uninstall the dalvik too as I don't use it...)

Battery life is comparable to N9; for example on saturday unplugged charger at 7:00 AM, when it had 100% charge. Had some light browser/mail/sms usage during the day, also few short calls and I checked the map once (and turned GPS off after it).
When I plugged it back to charger in the night at around 01:30 AM it was 47% still available.
So, charge about halved in 18 hours.

Okey I cannot remember but I think I unplugged the phone yesterday around 12-14 (pm). So its been soon around 24h and still 20% left. It is a bit less than what I had with N9 though I've had accounts online all the time (gchat).

Didn't do so much stuff yesterday, maybe some browsing and adding new contacts, no calls or sms.

I wish we get some nice battery monitor soon similar to N9, to see really which using the battery.

The battery life was actually horrible in the first few days but maybe the battery is just starting to perform as it should. Should take a couple of rechargings for it to operate 100%.

Have to make some notes for a few days of what I do and so on. Manual battery monitor.

...
Or just run 'systemctl stop aliendavik.service'

In fact maybe someone could do a little systemui type button to switch the dalvik on and off.

There are lots of processes for the Android support running although you don't currently have Android apps running. I don't know if they actually use much resources but they are in process table.

If you enable developer mode and activate mer-tools repository, you can install the powertop program and run it from terminal. w00t has instructions earlier in this thread.

Well, ran "ps aux | wc" few times before and after stopping dalvik and it seems I have now 11...12 processes less than before ;D

It's yet to be seen how it affects battery consumption.

File managers from android stores do work, but it would be nice to have a native one

WUT? Sailfish does not come with a native file manager?
I have neverever heard of such a thing before! Is that even possible? Unspeakable! how....

How do you like the N9's native file manager?

Funny how I've got a file manager in my N9 and I always use the terminal to do any file management. It'd be nice if you could activate the terminal without having to go through development mode though, as it's extremely useful.

True enough if one is ex-Android user first step on Jolla Sailfish...
But wouldn't it be a satisfying rape of Android system legislation to force multiple instances of Aliendalvik to make them multitask.
