Samsung claim 625 hours of standby for the i9000, best case situation I know. But as it stands with 2.2 JPO I am losing roughly 8% per hour in standby under what I would call normal data syncing and what seems to be about 5% ph when all data is off and the signal is strong.
So rather than discuss causes in this thead I am just wondering would people put down their power consumption (if they noticed) and their firmware? It would be good to have an average before wondering how to fix what might not be a problem.
652 hours standby? lol where did u get that? heck doesn't the ipad have 30 days standby? and it has 3 battries!
I tried once overnight with flight mode on there i got 1% drop in 7 hours ... this was at JM2 original firmware. Normally i get 25% drop with normal use within 12 hours and juicedefender (switches on data connection once per half an hour for email sync).

It has 2, but point taken.
And I got that information here:
http://mea.samsungmobile.com/ENG/mobile-phones/samsung-i9000-galaxy-s-specification
The biggest problem with the battery is the screen and white backgrounds ...It users double what a LCD screen dose with white backgrounds so when your on the net your battery will drain faster

Standby means screen off.
I think the 625 hours standy means phone on, screen off, wifi/gps/data/3g off.
Yes and best case means tested in the factory so:
-No SIM Card
-Raw software (no apps installed)
-No external SD inserted
-Phone turned on and left there untill it turns it self off.
(read that somwhere cant remember where)
BTW: 31% Battery drain within 10h
-Processor overclocked (1,2GHz)
-Performance Govenor chosen on SetCPU
-Data deactivated 6h, Data connection active 3h used 2h
-Wifi on 1h, used 0.5h
-38mins on the phone
-37 SMS writen, 46 recieved
-1h Listening to Music (headphones)
-Running JPP/JPA with super optimized JP6-JPM
-All partitions ext4, looped ext2
Was that percise enough?;-)

Yeah I suspect the "best case" too of course. But man, 31% in 10 hours? At my rate I would be flat in ten. Doing nothing, no screen interaction and minimal syncing.
I think mine is hardcore hardware knackered.
Also thanks for the specifics, that is a great insight.

U just remindet me, i forgot to say my screen is set to automatic, and most of the time its on the lowest setting. There is a big difference what kernel and format u use. When i had it set to jfs file system my battery was down before i got home (10h is a normal working day including the way to and from work). Most of the battery was used during the brake. Tomorrow at i will pay more attention ti the battery drain during brake and report again
Edit: got home at 6pm and my battery was on 69% now its 10pm 45% left and i was using the internet and tapatalk (over wifi) the whole time. So thats another 24% battery drain in 4hours of full usage.

I have offed all data and even the attempts to sync on my phone. The screen is minimum all the time. This is making me nuts here!
24% seems incredibly low for 4 hours of actual screen on time. This is an unmodified OS, just the new 2.2 JPO.

Its official jpa with superoptimized jp6-jpm kernel all partitions ext4 with ext2 loop. Syncs are turned off background data is on. I have minfree manager setup to keep as much of my ram free as possible. First ive.set it too high so my phone crashed. Actual setting from top (visible app) to bottom (hidden app):
40
60
90
125
128
130
Maybe thats one of the reasons?
Edit: by now i know that u can improve your battery life with differwnt things but i dunno what exately it is. Ive changed so many thigs the last 2 weeks. And sometimes my battery was empty @ midday and sometimes it lasted 1.5 days. Phone usage is about the same every day.

Screen on time will always be 10-20% drain per hour on the stock battery.
Anyone who thinks otherwise is kidding themselves, 10%/h is VERY optimistic, that's 10 hours guys
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Well I used to get 1% drop every 8hrs of standby, this means that GSM radio is ON but no other functions are running. So if you do the math.. 600hrs is very possible in a certain condition.

25% per 2hrs of screen time seems to be the norm
It depends on what you are doing and what screen brightness. If you are playing a game at max brightness you could kill the battery in 2-3 hours. Watching low quality video at low brightness can go on for 8hrs

I've noticed that the quality of a video wont really affect battery power that much.. compared to a VCD quality movie and a 720p (5mbps) I think the GPU can decode it very efficiently.
But I DO notice a difference between the stock player and mvideo player in terms of power usage.

I'm starting to think your one is wrong! But in a good way..
With everything off bar the WCDMA connection I lost 6% in 10 hours. I suppose that is reasonable, but again the phone was doing absolutely nothing.
well I got a JPD firmware with lagfix
Even with screen off and flight mode on
it still drain at least 30% of battery during sleep
(Which it only drained less than 10% in JI1)
Since everybody has some problems with battery drainage i thought it would be usefull if everybody posts his or her battery stats after some time so we can compare them so we can find and solve "problems".
Add in your reply:
-Which rom are you using ?
-How is your battery doing over the night ?
-Is the battery inaccurate like it doesn't go higher then 98%, drops from 100 to 50 after some time or after reboot,... ?
-Which kernel ?
-2G/3G on or off ?
-CPU adjustments ?
-Programs freezed ?
- etc.
My stats:
-MDC Fear 5.3
-Drops 5% over 8 hours but when using it goes 20% over 1 hour
Which i didn't had with stock rom so i guess Fear 5.3 is the problem
-Doesn't go higher then 98% and after a reboot earlier it jumped from 100 to 42
-Kernel: 2.6.32.27-g9f26g51-dirty (Eternity kernel)
-2G and 3G diabled
-CPU adjustments 1ghz standard. When in sleep : 216mhz
-Programs freezed: Don't know because bloat freezer says it needs to be updated but i already have the latest version
-Go weather widget, netqin antivirus
Tracking battery status with Battery monitor widget
-TK-Rom v0.6
- I loose 5 to 10% per hour without doing anything !
- Sometime even if i have the "battery fully charged" popup, when I unplug, the battery indicator shows 98% ...
-2.6.32.27-g9f26g51-dirty
-2G/3G on
-1000MHz max and 300MHz min (foced when screen off)
- No freezed program
- Only one widget : Genie Widget
2 Push mail (hotmail exchange + gmail) + 1imap (checked each hour)
If I install Juice defender (free), my battery last 2 days.
Without Juice Defender, the phone turn off after 10h on (with only some SMS sent and 10min on XDA) ...

Allright so we can already see that the stock rom's don't have much of draining or am i wrong ?
because my stock also had less then 5% loss at the night
but your 3G is ALWAYS ON !!!!! :s
you mean that you can always use 3G without doing anything else to your settings after disabling wifi ? because the 3G icon is always noticeable on the status bar even when it's disabled

Yes. When at home both 3G and wifi are enabled.
GSM coverage is not great in some parts of the house where my router wifi is strong; while some rooms far from the wifi router gets decent GSM coverage. So, I just let the phone choose whichever way it wants to connect when at home.
When I leave home, I manually disable wifi with a widget to save wifi scanning for router whenever the phone comes out of sleep. 3G works everywhere else, so I just leave it on 24/7. 3G power usage is negligible when there is no data traffic even when it is enabled, it's basically GSM on standby power.

I think EDGE is like a fast GPRS connection, right? I had used GPRS (aka 2G) quite some time ago, and IIRC, GPRS is billed by data connection duration rather than by data traffic. If it's also the case for EDGE, you MUST NOT leave is enabled 24/7, or else you will get a gigantic phone bill at the end of the month!
But regarding EDGE's power usage, I am afraid I am not entirely sure if it behaves like a 3G connection. Best is you test it out while monitoring battery drain, or google around for the info.
-Which rom are you using ?
Standard V10B
-How is your battery doing over the night ?
Around 5% loss, during around 8 hours of stand-by. But I usually charge it over night.

Not that I've seen.

And I've also turned down the LED button brightness down to 0.3 mA using HiddenMenu.
Currently my battery has lasted 22 hours and 16 minutes, with 44% remaining. Have used it all day as my MP3 player and I've been on the Android Market to update and download some stuff.
Pretty good so far

I'm gonna try the old style Nexus One's method of battery calibration. Hopefully it works, though I am not confident.
1. Plug-in charger standby, do not turn on charger yet.
2. Drain battery till it auto shutdown.
3. When it auto shutdown, immediately turn on charger.
4. Let the phone charge for 4-5 hrs.
5. After 4-5 hrs, power up phone.
The above was the Battery Calibration for Nexus One before N1 has its own Battery Drivers build-into kernel and a proper Battery Calibration Application (found in Market).
As I said, I'm not confident but will try this method. Will report here if success or failure

Probably a good idea to have a small fan blowing to avoid the phone shutting down from the heat from a long recharge. Might also have to go through a few cycles to reach the battery's full potential, probably don't need the empty-to-full cycle. Please let us know what you find out.

I've accumulated tiny experience over at Nexus One Battery Calibration and I know a small thing or two about how "some" batteries work.
The thing about Nexus One battery is it has in-build EEPROM so its the almost perfect battery to perform calibration. As for O2X, its still infant stage so no one look into it yet. But the theory "should" be similiar.
I'm doubtful but hopeful
Edit 1 - heavy usage with screen on for 4.5 hrs. 12 hrs use. Manage to drain battery till 0% and it auto shutdown as I expected. Now performing off charging for at least 4 hrs. I was surprised to see before it auto shutdown where at 0% the voltage was 3362mV. Pretty impressive I would say. Now I'm optimistic ...... will report soon.
Edit - failed while auto shutdown I plugin assuming it was charging. 4.5 hrs later I power up and it is at 1%. Fail!
I plugin and start charging. Monitored the charging process and found for the first time the phone was cool while charging even cool till 100%.
I'm now using this new charge and seems good. Its cool, no longer hot.
Now i have got CM7
And must say that battery is holding out much better at sleep
4 hours and not even 1% down
So i would advise to switch to CM if you are trying some new roms !!
Have you guys tried the app BatteryCalibration from market?
I had the same prob as many of you, and this solved it for me.

Hi There OB Users,
Just curious about your battery life.
Please post how long your battery can last.
What ROM and apps you using.
Mine can last roughly 20 hours on low usage (3G ON)
With Wifi ON, it's about 10 hours.
I'm using an app called "2X Battery" (can be found on market)
I'm running NOVA 4.5 ROM
Really appreciate it.
NOVA 4.5
Last three days I didn't use that much my phone so I could test how long does it go without charging.
Calling ~3min
WiFi - 5min
Camera - 10 photos
Winamp - 2h
Display was on about 1.5h
Other apps (no games) that don't use internet - 20min
At 5% I had to charge it for next day. So 95% = 2 days 18 hours. It would be 3 days if I didn't look what time is that often.
But for "normal" every day use, it's 1.5 days. I don't use internet because it's slow in my city (and it's optional for my plan). And at this moment I don't have WiFi router at home (I broke antenna).
Hey there.
here: NOVA v4.5
I use my phone a lot, like 2 hours of 3G network (lot of whatsapp, and quick web search). 3G aways ON
1 hour of calling
3 hours of music
The battery life is about 10 hours.
It would be great if i have at least a day, using it like i do.

last night i'm install 20b rooted rom then i install setcpu and advanced taskiller, i set them to battery save mode (its like close all app when screen of for taskkiller, and for set cpu, make my cpu %30 use when screen off) and i charced my phone it was %99 before the sleep. when i woke up i look at my phone and battery percent was %67, basicly i freak out!!! I JUST SLEEP and something use my battery %32
so, i delete setcpu and stop all activity of taskiller, but nothing change, battery keep going down :/

Check if you have apps which refreshes between intervals (or even push notifications) and avoid them.. the best solution is to disable Wi-fi and, if you are not a demanding person by others, switch to airplane mode while you sleep!

Unfortunately, along with many of the downsides of CyanogenMOD, battery life is an absolute joke. I think you'd be lucky to get over 24h of usage on that ROM. I have no idea why, but it seems that it sucks the life from your phone WAY too quickly.
For those having battery life issues, I'm on Zeus 6.11o and i've increased my battery life by just:
Using a good governor (smartassv2) to control CPU usage when screen off.
Recharging from dead to 100% seems to increase battery life.
And after using playerpro for an hour, surfing the net, using NBA.tv, 3G always on, an hour or so of Kairosoft gaming and i'm currently at 73%.
So life's good under the hood.

thank you very very very much it totally works! and i'm start use my phone in 2G.
Guys did some one try latest kernel from India
"CF-Root-SGN_XX_ODD_KL3"?
Flash it and check setting scrolling !!!
Benchmark reselt same like every kernels...(linpack 106, quadroStand: 4890)
but the scrolling are so smooth. (im sure is driver modifications)
Probably best stock kernel is here !!
(im on romow v3.5 by mowno)
CF-Root-SGN_XX_ODD_KL3
Not only that I installed the whole Indian software version on my European Note and I can tell you the damn phone flies now, lag is greatly reduced, battery life more than doubled exact same usage, reading around 1000 rss feeds during the day, check email 6,7 times a day and 2 hours +/- of music reading. With old rom versions it did not live past 14/15 hours now it can do up to 48 hours and still have more than 10% left. no heavy usage but nevertheless I can finally use it with no fear as I think a smarthphone should be used.
Exactly!yes I found samething!
Unfortunately I can't see any difference performance wise to the FM-Kernel I was using before (1.4 & 1.5).
But battery usage when idle went through the roof. Loosing 3-4% battery per hour

Very nice, I too have the feeling that the stock rom had the best battery life... Still checking out CM9 roms though and flash at least one rom/kernel a day at the moment so I guess my battery life isn't really reliable...

Still way too short if you ask me...
Rom: CM7 nightly
Kernel; not sure, maybe ironkernel.
Average usage, bored at school: about 5-6 hours, 2.5-3 of which is screen on browsing.

I am not sure if this an objective way to assess your phone power usage.
It all depends on battery condition too. There are Batteries in the market which are "fakes" packaged as original as well as third party labeling.
The performance can vary 50% or more between a genuine and a 'fake' and even among the third party ones. Again, a few charge and discharge cycles degrade some batteries much more than others.
Assuming the ROM , the OS and the usage all being assumed as same and constant,
the battery variable as well as the Signal strength variable all have a substantial impact on the power endurance of the battery. Even the Apps of similar nature ( Eg Music player ) use more or less power.
I installed a battery current widget that monitor the current. In idle mode ( with battery full charged ) it consumes 2 mA, which I think is reasonable. But I am not sure if the widget is monitoring the current flow accurately , though with another
widget I got near about same results.
Hope this helps.

Probably normal for me then
Apart from SMS, FB, Twitter and some updates I don't use the internet functions on the phone that much (probably that is why I am not chewing through the battery fast).
BUT...
All other ROMs I have tried only lasted about 18 hours on 3G for me (or about 40 hours on 2G). So that ROM seems to work wonders for me!
It probably has to do with the Fast Dormancy OFF setting it has (as all the previous ones didn't have that and android logs from my phone where literally choke full of Fast Dormancy entries/errors.

You have the V20D version then not 20Q.
The one I am using is from THIS POST (I have also installed V20q_Tweak_Pack_FD_off_by_Flix123.zip from the second post in the thread, I haven't tried out v2 of the Tweak Pack)
