I had several frights messing with my phone back then. Flashing and modding all the way to end up in Samsung service centre.
However, the only way i see around the web to calibrate baterry requires rooting. I would prefer calibrating without rooting my device. Is there a way to do so?

There is an app, i think its free,Battery Calibration on android market, i tried it once, kind of an improvement...me thinks. Try it.
That app requires root. I would like to avoid rooting if possible.

Not possible, the battery stats file is located in write protected systemfolder (Correct me if i'm wrong). And thus requires root to be "edited/deleted".
Charge it to 100% then drain it and charge it back up I assumed was the way
Charge it to 100% then drain it until it shuts down. If this doesn't work and if u know how to flash stock roms then just flash a stock rom and charge to 100% and then drain until phone shuts down( do not charge it while its draining). Their is no way to mod batterystats.bin file except this method which I told u .
Btw batterystats.bin is located in /data/system.
Hope I helped.
The most effective way requires rooting.... you can unroot afterwards
Ah that makes sense. Thanks
Calibrating battery makes no sense, the battety stat gets reset after each full charging.
For me I switch off all my WiFi and 3g and turn powersavemode app on works like a charm 15% battery drain over 7hours....
Any tips on how to save battery w/o having to switch off WiFi/3g?

15% drain in 7hrs... doing what??
I mean, I loose 4% in 8hrs sleeping [doing nothing] and if I turn on airplane mode it varely loose 1% in 8hrs sleeping
i loose 3 to 4 % on 8 hrs too with wifi off

Is it possible to actually damage your batt by over charging, I know it was possible before, but some ppl tell me nowadays batt don't do that anymore...

I don't know man "a bit" is no accurate thing but I thing I have almost the same battery usage... I do a lots of txts...
now, for the overcharging... as far as I know all [or almost all] new electronic stuff that needs to recharge has a sensor for voltage and power, so when the batt is low or empty it tell you is the same when is fully charge it tells you and "cuts" the power supply... if you have some time look at your phone when is charging, when at 100% it tells you and "cuts" power, a few mins later it will be at 99% and inmidiatly starts charging again
6 hours sleeping it only drain about 2% from 37-35 yesterday
No special app used in my black right now,cause i'm waiting for the new updates
But to answer the title, it's Juice defender

I use JuiceBattery ultimate in order to save my battery, and still every night with no opened apps, about 12% drain. Is it normal?
Is it possible that Juicedefender does the opposite - draining the battery?

I honestly don't know how are you manage to get such low power consumption on your phones. Just today I unplugged my phone little more than 5 hours ago. I did absolutely nothing with it, it just lied on a table and I'm already down from 100 to 84%. Just to be clear, for those 5 hours wifi, gps and 3G was off all the time. I'm on stock Froyo 10e, some of the LG bloatware removed and replaced with so called energy efficient apps from the market (3g watchdog, battery monitor widget). The only two original LG widgets that I use are weather & clock (with manual updated weather) and contacts. I really don't know what I'm doing wrong but my phone with really minimal usage can't last more than 1 day .

the only apps I have is juiceplotter to monitor battery, cpuspy and android booster which I found very usefull cause it turn off everything: wifi, 3g, bluetooth, apps not in use; all in 1 click and as far as I know it really doesn't drain any battery or it's so minimal that it's not displayed

Apparently cos our stock charger is only 4.8v and our batteries are 5v/1500mah so if we use a 5v charger somehow it helps with better charging and battery life, I'm using a bbm charger which is 5v

well i root my phone then removed the system applications using -system app remover.
im getting a much better battery backup . at least 30-40 % better . as far as the stand by is concerned .
i play a lot of games and text a lot so phone does not last over 1.5 day now ,
earlier it was one day only.
so im relatively happy with this phone because the battery backup is better now.
hope a software update to gb will help even more
do you guys have a battery percent number of 99%?
my phone ALLWAYS skips the 99.. it goes from 100 to 98 in 10 min after doing nothing..
(it's in the nova rom, its with official stock and it's with cyano.. and batt stats are renewed enough..)
PS: not to mention how poor my phone is daily.. chargng in the night.. at the end of the day 20% (too little to have all day at school, too much to power it up at night.. )

Ah ok! I use 5v charger since i bought the OB. I charged it only 2 or 3 times with original charger and the battery life was a little lower than 5v charging
I reboot mine every morning. It seems to make some sort of background task started by alarm or something.
A normal day at work leaves me with 80% left.
If i don't reboot it will eat up the juice in just 5 hours.
Also juice defender helps quite a bit.

K this has been helping me with my battery alot
1) install a new rom
2) using 5v charger
3) installing a firewall and prevent unnecessary stuff from connecting to 3g
4) uninstalling task killers(takes alot to restart the apps you killed)
5) uninstall battery monitoring apps (surprisingly)
6) use stock included lock screen
--------------------------------
Added:
7) uninstall anti virus apps*if you dare* (cos from what I understand Android has a sandbox type thing which traps viruses sorta so unless you go to alot of dodgy sites often you wont need it, imo a firewall is enough)
8) Turn off automatic updating for apps in the market
9) Turn off un-needed snyc features but do not turn off the "Background data" sync and "Auto sync" under the General sync settings or you might face problems going to certain sites, instead turn them off individually via the "manage Accounts" menu (I turn off mail snyc, fb snyc, watsapp snyc, contacts snyc)
Personally this had helped me alot in terms of battery....

I charged my phone to 100 percent and left it untouched for 6 hours. Then a shock. It was down to 81 percent with absolutely no usage. Please help. I was not connected to either wifi or data.

Akilesh - you need to see if any app was running. Over the weekend mine went from 60% down to 12% because Titanium Backup got stuck trying to delete an app and kept my phone running at 200mhz which will drain your battery. Go into settings/Battery and see if any app is at the top of the list. Your phone should not lose 19% if you dont have anything running/syncing etc. A simple reboot took care of the stuck Titanium Backup issue with me.

Hello Akilesh, you could use an app called BetterBatteryStats to monitor your battery usage statistics.
You could root your device and then install Titanium Backup Pro which will allow you to freeze or uninstall unnecessary pre-installed applications by Samsung, which are aptly termed bloatwares.
If you do choose to root your device, kindly follow this guide by dr.ketan, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
I hope this helps a bit.

screen brightness is one of the prevalent causes of your phone's battery, lower it down to a minimum level. Check if you have syncing apps in the background too, Uncheck background sync datas or account in settings if you have then check.
Now, install cpu spy from google play https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5idmFsb3Nlay5jcHVzcHkiXQ.. and check if your phone is in deep sleep or not at all.
Also, quit using live wallpapers (if your using one), though as you said your not using your phone for 6 hours.. the fact that if you do have a live wallpaper running, that will still eat up your phone's battery juice.

maybe it's about high time you consider rooting your phone.. so that you can install titanium backup and shoot those power hungry apps that are hidden somewhere in the framework of your system.
Yeah I'll root in a short while cleo. And is titanium back up useful is reducing battery drain?
Sent from my Android Rocket using Xda Premium
titanium backup is a tool to uninstall and freeze unnecessary apps and samsung bloatwares on your phone. When your going to remove those apps, you are not just reducing power consumption that those apps uses daily on your phone... you are also freeing some ram spaces on your phone's storage.

In case you opt for a free alternative to titanium backup, there is this app called "AntTek App Manager". I found it by chance and it works exactly likeTB pro (in terms of uninstall and freeze). You have to be careful while using either of these programs

i think you install an app that its drain your battery . if you dont find that you may reset factory your phone
Just got rooted again. Now freezed all bloat-ware. Will check out how it works and post back again.
Edit : Feel the phone running a bit faster after freezing some 15-20 applications.
dont forget to try recalibrating your battery as well.
Mind you, rooting has far more greater advantages than disadvantages.
Check later on if your getting that perennial issue or not anymore...lf by chance it had made some considerable differences, then your a happy camper..
Cheers bud!
If your phone is getting into deep sleep, it can't be any application! It has to be something to do with wifi/Network! If you run 3G, try disabling fast dormancy. That did me wonders!

Battery Drain
Hi Guys,
I have similar problem. My battery started playing up and keep draining suuuper fast even at full charge. My phone and bat are already 11 months old but I don't thin the battery should die with this short time. I have data always on and screen brightness set to minimum and it has been like that since I have it with no problem. Now, after charging to 100% and removed from the outlet, then start opening an application, it will freeze and won't turn off. I need to remove the bat out to have it rebooted and it's still the when I try again. Other behavior is that the screen will flicker, will turn to airplane mode, and it will turn off even when fully charged when I launched an app. Note that (power saving is OFF and just the same when it's enabled) I can now only use my phone well when connected to charger. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
there are a lot of people facing similar issues with more than 9 months old battery... mainly indicates a battery problem.. but first you should install betterbatterystats and check for wake locks and other apps using the phone when idle and eating up the battery..
My biggest drain according to bbs is Google maps, it's eating my juice when in idle, although I can get into deep sleep bbs says maps is causing wake locks.
Should I just freeze it with titanium? I don't really understand bbs much lol

My UK phone is rooted on the latest ICS and has various apps frozen with titanium backup manager! It use to be in deep sleep mode for about 68% of the time but since 2 days ago cpu spy says it hasn't been in deep sleep mode!

Turn off custom power saving mode.. Check after that.. I faced issues with these two.. Sometimes even l2_hsic goes crazy and drains the battery.. Check that too.

hello sir..
hmm since i read that you installed various apps that kill running apps, maybe that is cause to kernel wakelock since your system always working to searching what app running and killed it in various time you set
..many system app that switch back on like google app no matter you turn off except you log out your account
or maybe you can try one off the famous airplane metode which is
- switch your phone to airplane mode
- turn off your phone and pull out your battery (until 10 sec or more)
- put again your battery and turn on your phone
- after complete reboot let it for a while then turn off the airplane mode
I had the same problem with audio_out one but only in imilka's paranoid Android.. Couldn't fix it in any way so left the rom..
the reason taskkillers are disputed is because memory works different on android. It reloads certain stuff afterbkilling it, causing a cycle of killing and reloaded that can cause more drain than is intended to safe

I'm kind of worried of my battery life..
Last night was my first dissapointment, I left my phone untouched for the whole night (8-9 hours) and something just sucked away about 30% of my battery. Not sure if it just didn't go in Deep Sleep or bloatware leeches that much energy off it.
Within 4 hours of which not even 1 hour of Data usage + WhatsApp/Facebook another 30% just went away.
My battery was not this bad on ICS, specially if I left it during the night, I'd see max 5% drained.
Is this normal for now? Untill I go trought a bit of full rechanrging cycles? (From >5% till 100%)
Or it would be better if sometime I root it and remove some of the bloatware and convert system apps to user ones? (Like Maps,)
I also also less battery life. Is I have the double of the consumption in comparison With ICS . It dont have 1 day of battery life (18h), and I don't play. It's unsustainable...

I noticed that last night (after upgrading) I lost about 10% battery over seven hours, usually I'd only lose 4 or 5%. A little worrying. Google Now is turned off etc, just data, 3G and sync was enabled (just like I used to have with ICS).
I've just backed up my phone and might try a factory reset and restore to see if that fixes it.
I have noticed that if I open CPU Spy and reset the timers, then lock my phone and wait a minute, it is spending a fair bit of time with the CPU at 475mhz. I used to get deep sleep for 90+ % of the time, with 4.1 it seems to deep sleep about 60% of the time.
I'm gonna see if I can figure out what's waking it.
Did either of you do a factory reset after updating?
EDIT: Did a factory reset, installed BBS and CPU Spy, and a quick test found it in deep sleep 87% of the time. Currently restoring using the LG backup app, we'll see if that sorts it or whether there's something else going on here. Will report back with my findings.
EDIT: Ok, LG's restore tool just finished restoring the backup. It worked fine, aside from warning me about possible problems from a 'cross version restore', even though I made the restore with the same firmware version. As a side note, that LG restore tool is SLOOOW! I have a few big games but it would have been faster to set everything up manually, haha. Probably 2-3 hours it took to restore, though it was hassle-free.
Phone seems to be sleeping much better now... a few tests with CPU spy show about 92% of the time spent in deep sleep, which is about what I'd get on ICS. It's early days but if you guys want to give it a shot, it's shown some promise.
I just checked my phone battery stats and saw this:
Where you see the huge battery drain that's where I was downloading and then testing NFS (had better results than on ICS btw)
Battery was on 40% so I closed everything, even WiFi and went to sleep (7-8 hours)
If you see the stats it did went into Deep Sleep in the beginning but something woke it up and kept draining the battery.

I wish they could build a CM10 ROM with OptimusUI... I really like the visuals.
I cant say I am pleased with battery life on JB. I only had it for one day but it drains faster than ICS. Through the night,in about 10 hours,no wifi,no sync,no 3g,fast rebooted it drained 15%!On ICS,in that period of time, it would drain 3-4% max...On CPU Spy, "deep sleep" is only 33% so something is draining the batt..Anyone else with this probl?
Another update... I started having my phone only deep sleep for about 60% of the time again... and I think I have figured out why. Go to Google Maps, go into settings and check that "Report from this device" is unticked! Mine had somehow been enabled and I am fairly sure it was responsible for my deep sleep issue.

I was experiencing the same high drain overnight until I stumbled upon a thread on here which suggested deleting the maps apk and odex file from the system/app folder using a root explorer. you can then reinstall it from the market. I also did the same with chrome.
before I checked with BBS and maps location services were waking the system up constantly, but after doing the above things are much much better.
you can also try disabling MLT in the hidden menu 3845#*880# as there's a thread in general suggesting this logging app could be eating into battery life/ performance.
Is it normal that the battery drain overnight is over 10% in 7-8h ?
My battery life is very poor..Over the night it drained 30%!!! And I killed all the apps, wifi, 3G everything... Through CPU Spy I can see that my phone doesnt go in deep sleep(only 13%) and it is working on 51MHz for 76% of time!! And I`m not even touching it,the screen is off...Whats up with that?How can I fix it?
P.S. I disabled Google Maps because I heard that they consume a lot of battery in the background..

Either use BetterBatteryStats (which is available free for XDA members, search the forum), or Wakelock Detector. To use either of them, plug in your phone and let it charge up. Open BBS, it will create a reference state. Then unplug your phone and let it sit overnight. In the morning open either application and it will show all the wakelocks (times at which the processor was prevented from deep sleeping). Look at what's keeping the phone awake, and remove/disable it.
