Hey, please help me!
I've been using Apex for a long time, and after I upgraded from 9.1 to 9.2 the problems started showing up.
I tried to flash the version with no wipe (9.1 to 9.2) and the phone went into a bootloop, so I flashed back to JF6 and followed the Apex-Flasher package instructions.
The rom was working fine but the battery life are so bad that the phone is almost unusable.
I'm not charging the phone all night, I'm charging to 100% before I go to sleep, turning off WIFI and 3G, and when I wake up the battery is just 5-7% less.
But now with 9.2 the battery is 15%-20% less!!
I tried to flash Apex 10, but it's the same.
Maybe it's because the Apex Flasher package contains AT&T BL? I thing that before 9.2 I was using I9000 BL.
Even when the phone in flight mode and with no SIM the battery is draining in few hours!!
When I'm checking the battry use in settings, I always see "Cell standby" firse.
And another small thing, In Apex 10 you removed a lot of things, one of them was the Buddies Now widget which I like a lot. I tried to copy the APK to the app lib in system, but it didn't work. I also tried to install it but it didn't work. How can I get this widget?
Thanks in advance!
Buddies now widget does not work with JVS build. It needs to be ported again. As for battery life you have to tell which process/app eats your battery?
Check what using the battery most under the battery stats.
You could have asked this question in the Apex Q&A sticky there was no need to start a new thread.
I posted this problem in the Apex thread but no one had answered me, this thread seems to be a little dead.
Anyway, thanks for the Buddies Now answer
As for the battery drain, the first in the list in battry use is "Cell standby" even when the phone is in flight mode, or without sim at all :S
Maybe the AT&T bootloaders not working well with this rom or kernel?
Cell stanby means the phone is searching for network try a different modem, What modem did apex 9.1 had.
But I have full signal all the time.
The modem hasn't changed, it's KC1 in 9.1, 9.2 and 10
try a different modem anyway
OK, what modem can I try? How do I change the modem?
Is there a way to run this rom and kernel with I9000 bootloaders?
There is a modem sticky in the dev section DL the modem u want ro flash place on the phone memory ans flsh it through recovery, No need to change ur bootloaders as they will not effect the phone in anyway.

There are many, many modems.
I believe in the dev section there is a link where people report which modem works best in certain locations, i would check that out.
OK, the problem solved in a mysterious way :O
Just went to sleep yesterday with 97% and I woke up with 92%
Thanks everyone!!
my phone frezzes when i m in building or place where network is low or no network.., and then there is no option other than to pull out the battery...
and secondly,
my phone freezes on startup, if i try to start phone my in a place where network is low or zero....
Could you give some more info like what rom are you using and are you rooted or not?
That would help figure out whether its a hardware or software problem!
yes rooted, rom is Hypersense 2.5, it is all ok in evil's 1.26, but i think gingerbread is causing probs....
A month ago I posted this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1650113
And I still cannot fix the problem. I sent the phone back to repair but it didn't help at all! The repair description said that they did a 'software update'. It took about 3 weeks for my phone to return so I don't really want to do it again. Unless I really have to.
I have tried many stuff to fix this problem:
Bought 2 new batteries
Clean ROM install with NVFlash
Installed different basebands and rils
Formatted the batterystats
Tried different kernels and ROMs (custom and official)
Pulled out SIM/SD Card
Please does anybody know a solution for this problem? I really want my phone back!

Wow your battery drain (Screenshots from your first thread) is really huge. Let's try to solve that mystery together
But there is a chance that your phone really is faulty after all you tried already.
Please insert the original battery and fully charge it.
I don't use stock roms but think you should flash an official kdz first without any custom kernels. V20q or V20s (maybe with flix tweakpack). DONT use titanium backup etc, leave it stock.
You should install battery monitor widget by 3c to get information on your mV consumption.
In your Screenshot your reception wasn't good, please set it to "2g only" for now (or even consider to disable data totally and check how it behaves with wifi only).
Use your phone normally. How is your battery?

Thanks for responding.
I have tried to install the latest firmware with the LG update tool and the drainage was about the same. I did not install anything else on the device then.
Currently I am on the latest CM7 kang by temasek and baseband version v20s with 420 ril (also v20s daemon, I don't even know what this is).
I'll try battery monitor widget.
The reception at where I live is not so good even with 2g only. But I don't think that's the case becuase I tested with airplane mode activated and have also removed the SIM card.
Thanks again.
Just wanted to report that battery monitor widget is showing a power consumption of about -130 mA while on standby.
I think this is a very big number. And I think I had about -10 mA before this problem.

I had the v20s deamon installed too and I also had a pretty huge battery drain.
So my suggestion : remove it (by installing clean rom again).
As Tonyp already mentioned : try to install an original LG rom with it's default BB en RIL (use NVFlash to flash it). Don't use any other kernels or tweaks. Just the default.
Also don't restore anything (for instance with Titanium Backup or other program).
And set your phone to use 2G only, because a bad reception can indeed drain your battery (and fast too !), because it constantly seeks the network. Setting it to 2G only (it's mostly the strongest signal) can avoid battery drains.
And finally try to recalibrate your battery, there are tools available for that in the Google Play store.
Recalibrating the battery is a hoax. At least if you mean to wipe the battery stats (what most tools do). Real recalibrating would be to completely drain the battery (till the 2x turns of - not more! A completely empty li-ion battery would damage it!) and fully charge it again. But that doesn't improve the battery life, it will only improve the battery reading precisness.

Same results with stock based roms too?
CM roms are battery hungry
Yes, I got the same results on stock ROMs. I tried to 'cleanly' install the v10b firmware via NVFlash without installing else on my phone many times. And the problem still persist.
M battery shows me wrong indication. My phone automatically turnz of between 5-20% battery.
I think this problem is because of coco kernel.
First I flash Indian 4.1 ROM
Then install coco kernel and after that touch viz 5.0
After installing coco kernel I also found a bug.
My USB storage doesn't work from settings.

It is not CoCore problem, I got similiar when I was on CM and got back (touch viz 5.0 is CM based ROM). Full recharge and discharge battery couple of times.
and remember, you need 1-2 hours to charge to real full after it shows you 100%
CoCore provides total control of charging (lower charg. current makes the charging longer,but deeper and protects battery)
I have recently flashed a new ROM over my GE android revolution ROM and since then I have been getting strange Android System Battery drain from what seems to be my light/proximity sensors. I have no idea what app is causing this problem because even after a fresh wipe and install of a completely new ROM I still get the same issue. I have tried a lot and I really have no other options than to reach out for help. I heave searched and found no solutions.
