For now i do my tests builds on my android htc desire, and when normally i can have my phone not loaded for two/three days, if i run my game, and leave it in the backround by pressing the home button, the batery don’t even last one day…
So it is a question of adding some code that makes the game effectively sleep (or kill itself), or will this be adressed in a next update? [import]uid: 44010 topic_id: 8530 reply_id: 308530[/import]
I too have this problem. I’m installing my game on my Droid X. Game runs as expected. However, if I leave the game run and do something else on my phone or put my phone in sleep mode, it appears that the game doesn’t suspend and eats battery at a fast rate. I have a timer running in my game. If I suspend the timer on applicationSuspend will this solve my problem?
Thanks,
Wayne

This post hasn’t had any responses in a while but I am wondering if anyone was able to find a solution to this. My app does the same thing when moving away from it.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

On thing that helps is to lower the sensivity of the device sensor calls. This is how I do it :
[lua] system.setAccelerometerInterval( 10 )
system.setGyroscopeInterval( 10 )
–system.setIdleTimer( false )
system.setLocationAccuracy( 3000 )
system.setLocationThreshold( 10000 )[/lua] [import]uid: 5712 topic_id: 8530 reply_id: 62816[/import]
Another thing might be to act on the navigation keys for Android and deactivate stuff in your game:
