I'm running an un-modded MIUI ROM from MIUI[dot]us and basically the battery drain is becoming an issue to which I assume its kernel and theme related. Basically has anyone got any suggestions to a compatible battery saving kernel that can aid my issue? Whilst I was on the phone now for 30 minutes it apparently used 40% battery. Thanks for the help in advance
Use the Battery Calibration App from the market. IT wtll fix your battery stats after flashing.

I noticed it too. One week ago I was using gingerbread, which the battery lasted for about 24 hours with the same use as now with MIUI [ICS] 4.0.3 that lasts for about 18 hours.
I calibrated the battery two times, it helped a bit.

hi,
i installed the new criskelo rom, v23. and for some reason the battery drains super-fast.
i've got android OS taking half the battery and drains it in about 10 hrs.
that makes no sense.
anyone?
Same problem, with stock rom though. I think it happens after starting Google maps. Investing at the moment.....

Probably messed up battery meter, let it drain to 1% or so and charge it fully, after 2-3cycles you should get good battery life
Hi,
Just a quick one and any responses from personal experiance would be great.
Has anyone used an app to re-calibrate the battery? If so did it help or did it seem to make the battery life worse?
I had a major drain on my battery so did a complete reinstall of tweaky ROM and the drain has stopped. Just wondering if I should bother to recalibrate
Thanks

Calibration did not help me, I have the same stamina... JVH + Criskelo v56 + CF-Root 3.2
from those many many times i have tried to do calibration in all possible ways that has being suggested even waiting a few days for the cycle to end...
my conclusion its bull**** it depends on the rom or apps that are running ....
the only thing it does it shows u 100% when u finish charging in case u dont see it already.
Does it work or does waiting two weeks for battery to settle down work .

My findings are similar to JJE. After flashing a ROM, it will take 4-5 charge cycles (just charging every night, nothing special....may run down to 0% after first charge) before I see a stable, decent battery life.

Ditto, I try not to judge a ROMs battery appetite until about a week, espescially if I was to lazy to flash at 100%.. But I think that is what is meant by battery calibration..
Ok thanks guys, think I'll wipe battery stats next time I flash a new ROM 100% battery

Hi, i'm using the GamerzROM with Semaphore Kernel, but the battery drain is too much. Yesterday, i used the wifi for 55 minutes and the battery goes from 100% to 70%. I think that is too. How can i fix this problem? Another ROM, Kernel or else?

So I bought this phone 2 days ago and it's running Android 4.0.3 (LG Software v10e).. It's new, untouched, came out of box... Its battery drains unbelievably fast, with screen on, it drains 1% every 2-3 minutes and on standby it drains like 3-5% an hour. I did a lot of searching here on this forum before making this thread after I couldn't find a suitable solution nor any info about Android 4.1 upgrade. I installed "Battery saver" like 20 minutes ago and it seems to be doing better on standby now, no drainage so far in 20 minutes... I wanna know if it's worth upgrading to 4.1? I've seen a lot of negative feedback about it on other forums... How do I improve battery life on my phone without rooting it?
Any help would be highly appreciated, thanks
Yeah another battery thread

I got the same quesition!
If u are not going to root it to remove some bloatware from Jb 4.1.2 just dont upgrade. Its not worth it.

On every custom rom i've got baseband_xmm_power wakelock loosing 50% battery so something is very wrong. It isn't just bloatware problem. I've got this on clean CM.
Get v20B mostly no wakelocks for me.

Hello Geeks
I am using CM 10.1.3 on my P880 and battery seems to fast.
I set to air plane mode when i sleep, the next day the battery drain 30% at least without using any.
any idea and which cause the battery drain so fast?
and I am thinking to try another ROM, any ROM which can make longer battery life so far?
thanks a million.

All your questions could've been solved if you would do a little search. The battery is a well discussed topic and you aren't the only one with bad battery stats.
Search for betterbatterystats and you'll probably solve it yourself.
