Greetings,

I have been searching the forum with no result after an application that would show me what apps that causes high battery usage. I'm experiencing my phone to have worse lifetime than it used to, but don't know what's causing this. Is there any app that easy show what widget/apps that uses a lot of the battery?

Regards

No - there's no direct correlation between an individual application and the battery usage, so there's no way to measure this. There are apps like BatteryGraph which will show when the battery is being used, but you'd need to correlate that with what you were doing at the time.

That's what I was affraid of... There should be a thread where you share experience on application that sucks the life out of the n900.

'htop' is pretty good for resolving that.
