Your Android OS is draining your battery waaay too much. Does MIUI still have the Android OS bug? Reboot into recovery and clear cache and davlik cache, and continue monitoring the Android OS. It should be less than 10%.
Hi.
Thanks for the advice.
I did what u said. battery usage android os 31% and sys 29% but when i change for unplugged usage it shows sys 18% OS 9%. The previous is the total usage. Do u think its fine?
Hi, I'm using MIUI Mint Berry Edition 1.10.28 and the battery is very good, perhaps you should give it a try. Another trick is to delete google talk if you don't use it
???
you think google talk drein battery?realy?

I believe the default options in Google Talk is to have it login automatically. I never used it before, but when I first got an i9000 I remember going through apps I didn't use, and noticed that Google Talk—even though I never, ever used it—was signing it and staying signed in the entire time I had my phone. I quickly got rid of it (although you could probably just turn off the automitic login).
hi guys!
THX for the ideas but I got one yesterday from another forum. I just wiped in recovery mode the darwick memory or what and now its perfect. I charged the battery fully yesterday at 17:55. Was playing and using wifi ,still have around 20%.

wipe dalvik , wipe cash , format
then put miui on your sdcard and flash it
after that , clear dalvik cash and wipe cash partition again
calibrate your battery using battery calibration app ,
reboot.
the problem should be solved , but i must tell you , miui is battery HUNGRY and u will NOT get more than 3-4 hours screen time
You could try Juicedefender. That should buy you some time!

I find apps like this normally do the opposite, Just another service eating up CPU power. Also don't judge a ROM's battery from the 1st charge. Calibrate and the battery tends to settle.. Though IMO Cm7 ftw, 2 days usage from it

I sort of agree, but it depends on how much battery the app is saving you. Sure, it takes some CPU usage to be able to work, but if it's saving you 5x as much battery by doing so, then it's obviously beneficial. Lots of people swear by Juice Defender, so it must work as such.
Hello ppls. I've seen a lot of posts about high battery drain. I am wondering about my battery life.
So, i unplugged my SGS at 10am,said 100% when i unplugged it dropped to 96% (i read its normal, the protection against overcharge), left at 10.30 listened to 1h of music,15m of just twiking,writing 1 sms,at 13:30 already 59%
Faze II: 15m on facebook via wifi,wrote 5 sms,played 10 mins- 39%
III 1h music +10m gaming+ 15m twiking, at 8pm 20%.
IV about 5m of audio recording, and probabably about 10m of gaming->10% at 12:30 am next day.
No 3g, wifi only when using internet apps, using juice defender ultimate.
I'm using Darky's rom 10.1 . I bought the phone with this rom, and i can't flash a new one cause i can't connect it to my pc in anyway(same on other pc's too)
To the battery : Is this normal? Thx
Dear All,
I've playing around with my fren's SGS2 and looking at the battery usage.. Seems like Display is taking 36-40% of his battery on the SGS2.. And cell standby on his phone is only using 6% of the battery..
On my OB, the display is only using 6% of the battery power and cell standby using 45%..
I was wondering whether is the cell standby taking up a big amount of the battery and causing my phone to run out of battery so often.. Althought the nova display is saving alot of power..
Just remember,it's on % not an exact point

Same problem here. I think it is a bug. There is no way that cell standby is consuming this much battery.

Well it depends. If you leave your phone overnight its cell standby will be at a higher percentage than display, since the display wouldn't be used at all

Hi
I am using Zeus v1 rom and I have the same problem. At night with phone in standby, in about 8h it spends 10% or more. With everything of and in 2g and gsm.
I have the same problem when using the indian based official GB. My battery drained in 10 hrs of minimal use. no wifi or 3g just 2g service. I followed the instruction on flashing another GB update which is for V20b & v20n but did not succeed in wiping data & flashing superuser. I am still waiting for helpful guides from the seniors here.
With regards to the original posters comment you need to remember that the percentages that are posted when you go to the battery use in settings are a percentage of the battery used. The only way that the two handsets could really be compared is if they have both been used in the same way for the same amount of time.
How long are you getting out of a charge and how heavily do you use your phone will give a better indication of the standby usage in relations to your friends handset.
I'm not sure that if my phone has a low battery life or others as well . When I go to bed , my phone was at 70% and I wake up after 8 hours of sleep . My phone dropped to 58% . Is that a normal case or should I get a new battery pack ?

Try CPU spy and see if there's any app which is keeping the phone from deep sleep.

i'm using 1800 mugen power battery. it's better on about 20/30 % and you can really see that. so if you want to buy new battery - better buy this one than original. i'm working with it for half of a year n everything is fine.
about your battery - yes, it can go in that way and its normal for our dev.

Mine is about the same as yours, 100% at sleep and 88(at times it's 87 or 86) or so when I wake up. But I think I slept for about 10h
Edit*
Atm it's at 80% and it has been on battery for 13h exactly
im having issue with poor battery life on this device too up to 5hrs ~)
A tip is to disable sweep2wake if you have it enabled. it consumes a lot battery. Since I disabled it yesterday my battery gained a couple of hours battery life.
Using Longevity on CyanVivo X Rom and very impressed with the battery backup, Lasting over 18 Hours with average 3G data use and gaming before it was like 8-10 hours with Juice defender. Don't keep data on all the time otherwise use longevity Worth a try!

Imo it's just placebo effect. I actually think that they waste battery than save.
About battery saving apps:
Some might help save some of your battery, like Juice Defender, but about 100% of the stuff that an app does is something you can do for yourself.
Like dim the screen when you don't need 100% brightness, turn off data and use only GSM when you don't need to use data (and if 3G has better reception it might be worth staying on 3G though, at least in my world a better reception would mean a little bit better battery than if you changed to the network mode with worse reception) and when you don't need WiFi - you turn it off.
Using apps to kill other services and apps are not a good idea either, since some apps will only restart and restart and restart while the task killer will keep killing = both apps will drain your battery.
And by turning off both WiFi and data and the apps are well designed, they should not try to look for updates and such if there are no available internet connections.
And, by undervolting you gain more than using different apps and such and if you then learn how to set up your device in the best way for battery you will get longer battery life.
If I don't use my phone so often, I can get about 2 days with 3G/GSM + WiFi turned on all the time and mobile data connection turned on all the time. If I use it a lot I still get long enough battery time to make a full day, usually I need to charge my phone every 18-24 hours when I use it to check mail, send some texts and read news (and XDA, as the addicted person I am).
Now, I just hope that I haven't f*cked anything up - I'm just too lazy to read it through.

I bought myself a Nexus 7 about a month ago to satisfy the cravings for that Jellybean goodness. After trying several ICS/JB roms on my IncS over the past year, I decided to revert back to the CM7 Nightlies. Much to my surprise it's almost as if I forgot how blazingly fast Gingerbread was.
Given how i use my IncS on a daily basis, I seem to be averaging around 34-36 hours before it hits below 5%. It really only gets used for calls, texts and wifi tethering to my N7.

I used to average 30% battery drain per day with light use with stock GB rom and kernal, it has upped to approx 50% per day with stock ICS rom, with lOst profit's overclock kernal running at 1400 wake and 368 sleep. ( setcpu )
Not bad considering 40% increase in processor speed, but less than 20% increase in battery usage.

I tried latest cm7 nightlies and it wasn't smooth at all so I reverted back to jellybean cyan x

keep in mind you have to give it a couple of hours , maybe even a day(depending on how much it has to do and your connection etc) Before the rom settles down after flashing. Then you can give your impression of it if it is laggy or not.
I am using tha stock ics but the battery gets empty verry fast.
With 1 hour using Facebook With 3G the battery gets from 100 to 60 and less easily.
When I am not using it at night and With 2G it empties 10 easily.
Can anyone explain me where is the problem?

Did you wipe the cach and dalvik??? Worth trying this to see if this resolves the issue but backup your files first.
If not then, back everything up and try and full device restore.
Is that a full stock of LG ics? I think not much you can do about that. Other than trying one of the custom ROMs and getting battery efficient kernels.

Also here I report high battery drain.
Stock ICS ROM, rooted at first, then tried a battery usage data reset with no result.
Factory restore, same.
Wiped caches and dalvik cache (with CW recovery), phone bricked.
Un-bricked and reinstalled ICS stock, with CivZ_StormTrooper_rev3 kernel mod. Now with No Frills CPU & Juicedefender free, less than 10 hours without using phone (just data / h3g mode on).
First item in consumption list, "Android OS".
Any ideas?
Thank you
First. you should think about using an custom ROM based on stock. carburano Rom is Good but also Jishnu Sur´s rom is Awesome.
If you afraid to Root you Phone, it´s as easy a 1 2 3 nowadays just use this awesome Tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2020737
Reason: Many of programms you don´t need are removed my first consumption is WIFI. So even if i have WIFI on all day, my phones is steady till the night.
Second. Reset Battery status in CWM
Third. You using a damn smartphone dont expect s**t that this will hold many days this is no Nokia 3210 BTW if you use it that means u use Battery Facebook BTW is one if the most active Programms i know. There´s "high drain" in Order.

Without changing your system you could give "Juice Defender" a try, just look up in Appstore. I have no experience with this app, but it trys to defend your juice
I handled it by using some custom rom (recommending 4.1.2 and not 4.2.1 -> better battery life so far, look up some CM 10 ROM)
in dev forum pengus77 is working on some awesome kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097788) that also raises battery life enormous.
with all that stuff my 2X works very nice since a few days.

.extended battery on
.i dont play games.

Sent from my LT25i using xda app-developers app
Here is my ss. Why the hell android system is the higher? Ive used many android device before, seems this is not normal. Deep sleep is going well according to cpu spy.
battery life is really relative
it varies on users to users
it depends on many things:
- brightness display settings, auto vs manual
- apps installed, some are consistently running on the background
- data connection, this is the biggest drainer, depending on your area, you may get strong or weak signal(weak means your phone will tend to consistently trying to look for better connection from the network resulting to more drain in battery)
- etc., etc.
bottomline, don't worry about it too much unless the drain is really really horrible
personally, my TX is horrible in 3G but that is expected
Thank you for replying, may u check my screen shot, i just upload it. and please tell me is this also happen to ur device? normal/not normal?
I once had this problem and solved it by wiping cache and dalvik cache. System isn't supposed to use most resources on the phone
But even with system using that much battery you don't have a bad battery life.
I usually don't end up with 50% battery after 12 hours (usually I'm already drained by then )
