Changelist

PowerTutor Updated on Oct 11th, 2010

1. Fixed a force closed caused from the last update if you did not do a fresh install.
2. Now counting 2G technologies and CDMA traffic as though it were UMTS. We plan to get proper models for these technologies eventually but for now you can at least see some rough numbers rather than no data.
3. Changed the defaults for the widget to be more interesting.

PowerTutor Updated on Oct 8th, 2010

1. Added Stat View. Shows information on your power consumption, current (if available), battery energy remaining, battery voltage, and battery temperature. Additionally estimates battery lifetime remaining and time until battery is charged (if current readings are available).

4. Can select to view total power in chart view
