Rooted and installed assonance 5.2 and put on some other apps now something is draining my battery like a mother!!! I literally watched it go down by 10% in minutes. Anyone else experienced this? How do I find out which app is the cause of this without having to uninstall each app?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
download OS monitor or system panel and see which apps are consuming or hogging cpu
I did that and nothing looks out of the ordinary. I'm so frustrated!!! Could it be the rom or is it an app?

No help here...........I got tired of the battery drain from all the custom ROM's I tried (just about all of them) and am now back to JH7, getting almost 32 hours before being drained. I have done some tweaking to it, got the GPS working great and everything works whereas with some of the ROM's something had to be sacrificed.
Here are some screenshots:

In the last screenshot it shows 30 seconds to lock, all day today I was around 10 seconds to lock and 10 satellites.

Did you flash with 100% battery and then calibrate your battery afterward?
No it wasn't at 100%... And no I didn't calibrate the battery... Was I supposed to??

It's certainly worth a shot. I had the same thing happen to me once a while ago and it seriously extended my battery. There's some threads here that describe the process which essentially involves discharging and charging your phone off and on and deleting the battery stats through CWM.
I always flash a ROM with a battery showing 100% and I typically net pretty good battery life doing it this way.

Always recommended to do so whenever you flash...........YMMV
Here's a great thread for you to look at.

So can I just calibrate it now or do I have to reflash my phone?

You can calibrate at any time. No need to reflash.
Maybe before you reflash, please wipe of the factory settings and partition and also the Dalvik cache and battery stats in "Advanced" settings using your Clockwork.
Ok I'm trying one of those recalibrating methods. Maybe I really should've read everything before I flashed... but there was sooooooo many stuff to read and watch...
When you say "advanced" in clockwork, thats the rom manager correct? when i look through it it says advanced mode for premium users only... is that the right app?

I'm sorry but now that I search through the forum I see that its a common problem and it's something I missed. I'm totally new to android (smartphones period) phones and flashing and stuff. Thanks for all the helpful tips!
One question though. When you delete the batterystats.bin file, does it get recreated at a later point or never again?

It gets recreated, yes.
Have to remember as well that each user may see different results with the same Rom. Kernels. Modems, Roms perform differently from one device to another based on a multitude of factors. After you have done the basic steps to try to stabilize battery drain, I would then begin by experimenting with different kernels and modems.
Idle drain is the test I normally use after ensuring proper battery readings, sensor usage and app CPU behavior. Many times simply flashing to another kernel shows immediate results.

I've yet to learn about flashing kernels. I'm now running perception 10.2
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
Download the sgs kernel flasher app from market. Go to kernel thread off your choice in captivate development an download kernel, placing the file on your internal sd card. Run the app which is poetry self explanatory.
Definitely try a different kernal or modem. Generally, you can find feedback in the rom thread about what kernal or modem gives the best battery life.
I haven't used Assonance but I had to flash the firebird 2 kernal to get good battery life with Perception 10.2. Keep trying.

What you are experiencing is called a "hot reboot" the phone itself doesn't reboot just the os.

I'm having issues all over the place - hot reboot is one of about 5 or 6 I've noticed on the last couple of days. Just flashed v5 from v2.3 and I'll be going back ASAP.
Thanks studacris. I thought maybe I did something wrong. No way im going back though. Gb on the cappy is great. Again thanks to all.

I had the same issue before. I wiped user data and rebooted. That seemed to fix the issue. I figure when in doubt...clear and reboot.

What other problems are you having? I'm running Beta 3 as well (I missed when they put up the download link for RC1, now I have to wait until they fix whatever problems there are with it.) and I'm not having any issues whatsoever. Battery life is great as well, which was my only real gripe with CM7.
I was on RC3 and now 5.1, and I haven't had any such problems. I was running another ROM (not Continuum, which I will not name) before, which suffered from terrible sleep death. About every other day, it would not wake up from sleep at all. I had to pull the battery to get it to work again. I have had NO such problems with Continuum at all.
Oops. Posted too soon. Continuum 5.1 was extremely laggy. Tap something and the screen blanks out before the app comes up. That's bad lag. Also, it completely crashed on me about 4 times in a couple of hours.
I just flashed 5.2, and it seems to be better. However, icezar1 says the problem was with TW4, but I'm using Launcher Pro. I hope these problems don't persist.
Well, 5.2 was almost as bad as 5.1. I installed the previous version of the kernel (Talon 0.1.4) and all was well. Some kind of high memory freeing something or other. Then today Cezar released 5.3 which is even better. This is a great ROM.

Hi guys, I looked at forum but didn't find that anyone had the problem like me. When my Lg Optimus 2x is fully charged it blocks, shows only black screen, I can't unlock it, turn off or anything, so I must pull out the battery and put it back and only then I can turn on my phone.
Before flashing ParanoidAndroid I did full wipe. Anyone knows the reason and can I fix it somehow?

Why? The stay awake option is the perfect answer. A couple people have charging bsod problems with the cm stock kernel (like pastime himself hehe). With that option it won't happen anymore.

True story, I did check that option for phone to stay awake and it worked
Thanks.
This problem started since i was in kdv7.4 and my kernel was glnote core forgot what version it was the last version before hydracore.. using oc version and my voltage group is B
Here is the bug
Some times when i use the phone something appears in my screen its like a black and white wave going down.. after that black and white wave i will soon lose my signal.. at the same time i notice that the gnote is very hot.
I upgraded my kernel to hydracore still the same issue happening( tried to report my prob in the hydracore forum if someone can help me there apparently none)
The above bug was not that irritating yet because the bug will only last for about 5-8seconds..
Now i change my rom to asylum aokp rom v2.0 the problem got worst
The phome usualy goes very hot radomly even without playing games.. then black and white wave going to occur and will shut my mobile signal this will last in a minute.. to solve the prob i need to plug in a charger... tried to ask in asylum forum if they had the same bug they said that their rom is fully stable. And also sometimes when this problem occurs my phone just automatically turn off.. (battery around 50-70 percent) when i try to turn it on again battery now 1 percent dont know why??? Can some one help me with this??? I always do a clean install of roms and kernels.. help please..
Here is the video showing that bug http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OMqXzJKeqo&feature=youtu.behttp://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OMqXzJKeqo&feature=youtu.be

Once I had a real nasty battery drain, about 1%/min. Solved it with battery calibration. But never experienced such drain as you describe and don't know how to solve that yet. Does this happen even directly after clean rom installation, or could it be any app or tweaking settings you do afterwards? Do you have the time to check CPU+GPU speed when you notice your note suddenly start becoming hot, and also apps CPU usage, before it crash? Maybe you can get a hint there. Does the same thing happen if you start phone in Safe Mode? It's a good idea to backup rom before you boot into Safe Mode.

Not sure what u mean by 'Better', every kernel has its good and bad side.
Also try moving to Standard version instead of Overclocked. Some Note can not handle OC.
Really needs help. I post a video on youtube above to show the prob... i have erased my whole internal sd change my rom to pa rom. Standard version of hydra core and i still get the bug...

Hi Pierre.. I saw your video and I too am puzzled on what's causing your phone to just suddenly turn off.
just out of curiosity, you did not install some overclocking apps on your phone right? no tegrak mumbo jumbo stuffs to change or speed up your phone before right?
Now if your not using any overclocking apps... you can try using a different brand new battery on your phone and see if the issue still persist after.
Replace your battery.
I believe this is caused by your battery because i get that wave when i use a non original battery ( some cheap ****ty battery ) and that wave starts when im at low battery.
you can borrow from your friends to see whether im right or not

I mean, cleaning (not clearing..my apology :silly.. wipe clean the battery contacts at the back of your phone before you put in the replacement one.
go back to stock gb, clean install nothing custom, no root.
Test again, reproducible?
Yes, then Samsung service centre
No, incompatibility with what you had installed Dont go back, unless you install newest versions everything
Send it to samsung service .. they said that my battery port(at the back) was grounded that was the cause of it that also made my battery bloated.. they will change the whole motherboard for warranty.. Back to Scratch..
Is there any solution to this problem?
touch buttons illuminated, screen back light on but screen wont wake up, stays black, so i have to remove the battery.

I also had this problem on Parandroid CM10, no sign of life from the phone at all.
However, I reflashed the rom and now it works great.
Ok rom issue then. I will reflash it with a different one and kernel. Any kernel recomendations?

Happened to me on gueste2x v3.8 last night while I was USB tethering...and I was just pushing for a record time running made it to 160 hours and had to pull battery out to get it working again. As mentioned already, it's probably something to do about background data/wifi activity.
Nevertheless, I still recommend gueste2x v3.8 :thumbup: Give it a try
