[Q] Why is my battery life so awful?

I was at 100% battery at around 2:40pm today. I left and went to my brother's for Christmas lunch. Now, at 4pm, it's at 67%. All I did was Facebook (via the browser) and listen to some music (not the entire time). I frequently killed all the running apps, too.
I'm running Axura RC 2.5. I flashed it via Clockwork Recovery.

Then how do you manage backgrounded apps that you aren't using? They just drain the battery, no?

No, they don't. It's all related to how the Android OS manages applications. There's a ton of info about it - just google it. If you have battery draining issues, most of the time it's because you left something running that's constantly downloading/connecting to 3G or is doing something CPU intensive. Take the new Facebook app for example - if you use the chat function and you don't log out, it keeps you logged in and that will suck your battery dry. If 3G is spotty, you'll also have battery drain as the phone switches back and forth from edge to 3G, trying to connect.
I used a task killer when I first got my phone, because some moron at the AT&T store recommended it. My battery life got much better when I unloaded that crappy app.

I don't use FB chat, nor have I had unstable connections. I've had constant HDSPA all day. Could it be an issue with the ROM? I have WiFi, Bluetooth, & GPS turned off, as well as Brightness as low as it can go.

Hold down the home button and open task manager...
Also i noticed that using 3g on low signal kills the battery, try to use wifi...
You can also try assonance, i think its clocked 200 mhz less than axura, so you might perceive more battery, and it is as stable
Or try recalibrating the battery
Pd maybe it is an issue with the modem draining too much battery, you could try a different one, i bet if you dissable 3g your bat will improve a lot

Custom ROMs give you more speed, more power, more more more. That comes at a cost. You will have crappy battery life with some ROMs, and other ROMs may have better battery life.

For normal day to day work, EDGE should be fine. Switch from EDGE to 3G when u feel need more data transfer speed. This should help.

I wanted to try Assonance, but whenever I tried flashing it via Clockword recovery, it froze at 'installing update..'. About to try Darkys 7.0.1.

Could it be a deffective battery? I used to get 7 hrs heavy use (web, games, music) with my original battery. I bought a backup battery (same thing, Samsung OEM 1500mh) and I am impressed I am now getting 12-18 hrs with heavy to moderate use. I guess I had a bad battery to beging with.

elektrisk,
has your battery life changed since you first flashed axura? if so, it is most likely due to an app you installed after flashing the rom. if your battery life has always been "awful" then you should consider flashing a different kernel, or another rom & kernel altogether

Samsung Galaxy S Battery Drain

Hi,
im having battery drain problems the phone wont last more than 5-6 hours send 20-30 texts listen to some music, i have turned off backgroud data and live wallpapers, im using something called advanced task killer free to kill the apps that are running, but i close them the re open the task bar and stuff like music player has reopened
ive also seen a post about which batterys are better is there a better one i can buy? my batterys a G7
any ideas ?
cheers

Stop using the task kiler and you'll probably see better battery life. Task killers have been proven more harmful than helpful on the newer versions of android so using it is pointless. Also pay attention to what you have synced and how often. tons of web apps synching will drain the battery faster, as will having the gps and wifi turned on--if you're not using them, disable them.

thanks for the reply i will remove the task manager,
auto sync is turned off and i only use email by refreshing the inbox

Come here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884816
In short: Have you recently updated via Kies to JPY version? If so, stop using your wifi. There is a bug with wifi with this newest firmware.

hi,
i update to 2.2.1 through kies

Do you use wifi?
If yes, switch to data, battery life will be better. You should be able to get around 48h of light active usage (i mean browsing and calling and what not) with 3g data on.

i dont really use the wifi, signals really good around me, i only got the phone friday, brought it of a friend,
charged the phone fully before i went out last night about 7pm by 1.30am the phone had cut off, that was only using the facebook andriod app and sending text messages.

Than there is something terribly wrong. Do a wipe and factory reset, if you didnt after getting a device from your friend.. It seems that some application misbehaves and drains battery.
You can check it by typing *#*#info#*#* in dialer
Several options there, if there is something strange you will see it. (suggest looking into Battery history, usage statistics)

i dont know how to type in dialer sorry sounds very stupid all i have are digits

From the above post:
TechnicR said:
About my battery life:
Previously I was on Darky's v5, with that the phone lasted 2-3 days with normal usage.
After flashing to v7 (with 100% battery) I also got the fast drainage problem. Here is what I did:
1) Turn OFF phone
2) Charge till it says it is FULL
3) Start in RECOVERY
4) WIPE battery stats
5) RESTART android (yes, it might already be on 98% or so)
6) USE phone heavily. Don't worry if it drops too fast. Use it till the Android system turns OFF automatically (it happens when your battery is below 1% - for me the phone was on 1% for about 40 mins. This is where it heavily myscalculated
7) PLUG IN your charger, TURN ON android and wait till it is FULLY charged again. (It is better if you don't use the phone at this charging up)
Now, after you disconnect the charger, you should still have 100% for some time (I've been using the phone for 32 mins - writing this post - and it is still on a hundred percent) and with this, I got back the 2-3 days battery life with normal usage.
Also, you should set WiFi to: "Never when plugged in" and by default I disable Data Network. But my phone is using WiFi all the time so it doesn't really matter
So to summerize this method, the key is to show the phone the battery's minimal capacity too, by using it till it is on null. Because with charging to 100% than wiping or flashing only introduces the maximum capacity to the system and the minimum is only guessed. THIS gives the faulty reportes and makes us think the phone drains too fast.
Try this method, than feel free to share your results

Hey, I'm having the exact same issue as the OP. Have you found a solution yet? I deleted the task killer just now, but did that work for you?
Thanks.

Same problem
hi
I have the same problem. I bought it 2-3 days ago. today i charged it full while fone was off, switched on at around 8AM my usage detail was
3g was on
gmail on sync
skype on sync
5-10 min of skype calling
5 min of normal calling
5-10 min of facebook browsing through android app
30 min of chatting on skype
at 2PM the fone was at 20% battery. My wifi and gps were off all day.
is there anything i can do to get atleast 15 hours of battery with normal use
regards

If you are having issues with your battery, before you try killing tasks, changing setting and what not and especially if you are running custom ROMs, then you need to recondition your battery. The same goes for anyone who is having high drain issues.
If you follow the steps I posted from someone else's post and then find that your battery is not having issues, then start looking at your modem (if using a custom ROM or you've upgraded to new firmware).

ive done a factory restore, ive found what my usage says idle 4% the display 80%
contrast is switched right down

i know im not using any custom roms im using the firmware that you download through kies

When data network deactivated phone die after 2 days!
I installed whatsapp, gtalk and one email account with 10 mins refresh.
I never use wifi.

Why are people getting amazing battrry life?

I've seen a lot of people reporting unreasonably(for me) great battery
life , like three days WITH usage. Even for CM7 based ROMs, they( most people seen reporting) also get a day and half or two.
But for my personal experience, I have used my phone six months, and the best I got is 1.5 days WITH usage.
How do those people have those huge battery life? Or am I missing something?

Do you use juice defender? If you tweak your phone right up, then don't use it you might get 3 days if you did correct first charge etc, but in reality most people charge their phone everyday as they use them, it is a smart phone...ie a computer, my laptop lasts 4 hours! T there is no point in having a smart phone if you don't hammer the pants of it!

i'm facing pretty low battery life problem also
back then i remember when my phone is on idle, every 5 min only consume about 5ma(according to battery monitor widget), but recently i have no idea why , idle will consume up to 80ma every 5 min, i have very little apps installed and most of it doesn't have push notification nor sync
Another main point, i'm on 3G instead of hsdpa, i expect much better battery life to be honest, i'm currently on Juwe's smart edition 5.3

check the processes
First of all check what processes are consuming more memory and CPU.
Try using "Usage Timeliness Free" app, which will show you which application is eating up your memory thus battery.
It has got option to terminate unwanted apps as well.
BO3527

Mine lasts about 7/8 hours at most with wifi turned off and some bloatware apps frozen aswell.
I've had the phone a year so I dont no if my battery is ready for the bin or if its something to do with flashing cf-root.
It runs out so quick I've got to make sure its on charge every night in case it dies and my alarm doesn't go off for work in the morning ha

One major difference people overlook is how hard the radio works to get a signal. E.g. At home with WiFi and 3G on I lose about 10% battery overnight of the phone sitting idle. At work I lose closer to 45% for the for the same period. Naturally when I use the phone it'll be flat at the end of each day.

[Q] LG Optimus Black Battery Life?

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.

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.

[Q] battery issues - 3 charges most days

Hi everyone,
I brought this wonderful phone (or atleast i thought wonderful) couple of weeks ago ( delivered on release date)
Now i expected the battery to be good as its 2300 mah but it the phone doesnt seem to last no way near as long as other claim i had an s3 before this htc one, 9 times outta 10 i only had to charge it once a day and never activated power saver mode,
On the htc one i constantly have power saver turn on and it just doesnt seem to be doing anything , i havnt changed my usage of my phone, if anything ive used it less,
For example the s3 lasted my full 8 hour shift with nothing running expcept the tunein radio app, the htc one only seems to last 4-5 hours with everything closed except the tune in radio app. Ive not changed networks so low signal shouldnt be causing the drain as there isnt a difference in signal levels,
So is there anything else i can do to stop bettery draining. Bluetooth, wifi, nfc, etc all turned off, screen on auto brightness ,
Sent from my htc one with just 26% battery left and i havnt even rrached 4 hours of my shift yet, left house at 9:45 with 100%

You probably have an app preventing the phone from sleeping. There are loads of tutorials on how to check for partial wake locks to fix this.

Definitely sounds like you have an app which is preventing the phone from sleeping and you should be getting a pretty easy 1 day out the battery at the very least in moderate use.

How have you TuneIn setup.
As general when you press pause rather than stop, itt continues to record that station and is always active. Iif you go into the app settings and turn off 'autostop recording' which should be defaulted to 8 hours - turn this to never and try again to see if it improves. I've seen TuneIn eat battery life on other devices where ths happens (people thinkits stopped when its just paused and recording away in the background...

That's possible ^^^^, however if he was just to hit exit on the app it should stop the services. That and really want to be sure, swype it away in the multitasking section.
Can try Betterbatterystats in the play store as a lot of people rave about that.
Also make sure Google Now is disabled. It sucks battery life like no other. Awesome tool, however to much drain on the battery.

Guaranteed that you have horrible wakelock issues. Rogue apps, bad settings, and anything in between could be the cause.

I can go to bed with the phone fully charged and, 8 hours later, wake it up to see it's still at 100% (mobile data, GPS, WiFi left active.)
Once I'm bored of constantly picking it up and playing with it (i.e. get back to standard usage patterns) I get the feeling it will likely run to 3 or more days between charges. Won't be this month though

Well there are various reasons for this..Maybe an app that drains much battery not leaving cpu to sleep.You can download better battery stats and see the wakelocks and the cpu states that your cpu runs on.. You may also need a battery calibration.It will not increase the battery capacity of course but it will eliminate the faulty battery stats bin that tells the system the battery percentage.You may have for example 25% battery left and your device may show 2% or even close.
I assume that you do not have wifi always on, screen on for hours or using mobile data..The consumption of battery is huge.

how ? when u first got the phone ? did you turn it on or did you charge it?

Worth dialling *#*#3424#*#* and doing the battery test, although as everyone else has said it's more than likely an app.

I had a sgs2 over 2 years,rooted and optimized in battery usage, i was already happy. Now with the htc one it's a completely new experience....already now after a few days,with root but still no tweaks i get 60% left at 11pm!before the sgs2 was empty...can't wait

Download Better Battery Stats, leave it for a day and then upload a screenshot of your wakelocks. My battery is easily lasting the day (ended at 11pm at 76% yesterday)

Same-ish problem.
Hey i'm having a similar problem,
I bought the HTC One (silver, 32Gb) A couple of days ago and the battery isn't even lasting a day with what I'd say as Medium/light usage. I do leave Mobile data on so i can get Skype/Facebook/line calls ect instantly, but i assumed that's normal.
I just left my phone alone for an hour with the screen off and it lost 4%, could this be a battery defect?
Are you telling me to get over a days usage, i have to leave mobile data turned off and only turn it on when i want to use Skype ect?
I saw a post above that one guys gets 3 days of usage with Mobile date, Wifi, etc all turned on. Is this the norm, or does he have a super hero battery?
I see the general consensus is to download "Better Battery Stats" and send pics of wakelocks, but Is there comparable app for free that will do the trick, as i don't have money currently on my English account.
Thanks to all those taking time out of their own lives to help others.
