Hello everyone!
I've installed few days ago the onecosmic's ROM RC3.1, beatiful, perfect, smooth bla bla.
The problem is: i'm seeing so many post of people saying that with full charge, phone can stay alive for an average of 1 day- 1 day and an half (24-36h) with a normal use.
My phone can last 13-14h staying most of the time in standby and it's the 5th cycle so should be "stabilized" now. 1st cycle was awful, 8h (didn't expect anything else), then things got better but i've reached this cap of 14h.
I've tried Fugu kernel at first but i didn't get much improvement so i switched to paul kernel and changed modem too (jvk->jvt).
Still can't reach the dreamed 24-36h, i mean, i don't care about having 2 days of battery life, i would like to use the phone without having to charge it in the middle of the day.
btw nstools installed and set Deep Idle on, which seems to works just fine for me with the paul kernel.
(can't post outside link -.-)
nstools stats:
h*tp://i44.tinypic.com/6duvzb.png
does these stats means it's working?
i'll post also CPUspy stats:
h*tp://i43.tinypic.com/35052qf.png
is it everything ok here?
On standby there's no battery drain effect now, but when i'm using it, i get 1% down every 1-2 min.
What do you guys suggest? do i need to try other kernels/modems? shoud i try to flash again?
p.s. on 2.3.5 stock i used to have 24-36h but there's no way i'm going back to GB, i love ICS.
I used to have 24h of battery life, but I don't know what happened, after a week or so now my phone is draining 20% every hour, dead by noon...
Tried NStools with undervolt, and it didn't change anything.
It's now an useless piece of junk... this is retarded, either i will try reinstalling ICS or im going back to GB.

maybe your problem is caused by an app, or more than one, which are using push notification, you sould try uninstalling some...
Tried undervolt too, i got maybe an hour more.
Update: i just flashed again with RC3,1 and paul kernel. Situation seems a little better, gonna update again after few battery cycles.
What thing is in the battery status menu?
If it is media server: settings-->apps-->all--> Mediastorage-->force stop(dont wipe data)

sure! with the new paul kernel the battery life is better! amd now i'm trying the last glitch...my phone seems to work better...!i will hope to have also a good battery life without hard drain (with didle support maybe it's possible!)
actually, there was a lot of "Android OS" usage, maybe something went wrong from the beginning, the phone wasn't going to deep sleep state when put on stan-by and use more cpu than necessary when active, that must have been the main issue.
As i said, installed RC3.1 again this morning now everything is gooood
Lots of facebook, whatsapp, camera and 1 call, still have 67%. When put on standby battery almost doens't drop at all (checked on battery graph).
I think it's solved
I've the same problem. my battery life sucks...
Now my question. Where can I find/download the paul kernel? I#ll re-flash it too .
And my second question, do the "devil - der teufel" kernel do a great job too?

dunno about devil kernel, i read that for someone is even better than paul and it solves also "green screen" issue that appear when you lock the phone. I'm happy with this config so i won't touch it until RC4
I confirm that ,now, when my phone is in stand-by, battery usage is almost 0.
btw paul's kernel can be found here:
h*tps://w*w.dropbox.com/s/ts8j2o7wuklq9zg
(sorry about the "*" in the url but it won't let me post link 'til i get 10 post -.-)
is also in the first post of the Team ICSSGS rom btw
I have flashed RC3.1 yesterday, it lasted for 8 hours. I was using it heavily to check all the features, syncing the contacts etc. I have drained the battery fully now. Will charge it upto 100% and see how long it last now with normal usage.

Battery Drain
hello everyone - I have been searching a lot abou this i9000 battery drain on ICS. I am using ICS and Devil karnel and battery lasts for around 11-12hrs. My usage is pretty normal. I dont use phone for most of the time but still it reaches to 12hrs mark. If I check battery stats then Android OS and Display (brightness is very low) are consuming most of the battery.
Please let me know if there are any ROM Tweeks or any other way to increase battery time. Or I will have to go back to GB because I hate charing battery two times a day.
Thank you.
from past weeks my phone turned toooo slow and battery back up is also low
im on sgs2 v9 rom...
lemme explain from first...
after turing on my device..its runs with no lag for 40-60minutes...after that my phone turns too slow...no cpu setter app or nothing but it turns too slow...and only 4 to 5 apps installed
and battery is too low for me..i charge my phone for 3hours and i get only 5hours of backup(i will listen songs for 45minutes)
is this the problem of rom or hardware or my battery problem

It seems that there's lots of firmware load on your device, due to which battery is also wasting.
If phone was normal previously (before SGS2 v9), then surely it's software that's making your phone slow. Also, try wiping battery status in CWM recovery...
Hope this helps...

1. Wait till pop up command charged in Homescreen when u charge althought it's show 100%
2. What data connection u used HSDPA / 3G / EDGE ??
3. Check our Battery Physical there are inflate or not (put on flat place) if yes possibly our battery is leaks. if not just calibration your battery using 3rd app on playstore "battery calibration"

I have used Tonyp 28g, Topogigi 30a and Dj 30a,
i look over the thread but no one get auto shut down problem(maybe i miss out..)
Problem only occur when i use ICS.
cm7/9/10, gb, froyo didn't have this issue.
My phone will shut down after a time in standby mode,
i don't know how long standby the phone will shut down, but occur under 50% battery mostly.
I can switch on it after shut down without charging and having more than 20% battery left.
Attached pic are the battery status, when the battery drop to 0% it will shut down. in first photo i just accidentally screen on the phone and it stopped to drop, back to normal.
Sorry for my bad english
could i use lumberjack to logcat the problem?is it locate at lastkmsg?
try again a fresh install,den after boot once then boot to recovery wipe dalvic,battery stat,then fix permission.. if you use topo build,flash the other kernel.. after a 1st boot from clean install..
auto matic shutdown happen for me also with ICS. the frequency is like in 2 or 3 days. once. waiting for some sort of solution

sometimes i got this problem when i tried to flash my phone to 3-4x a day!!!
Even I have this problem, it happens daily to me only when I am sleeping, I was facing this problem with all ics rom, If your phone is fully charged then it does not shut down, I have tried fresh install wiped dalvik cache, battery stats but nothing helps.

thanks for the advice, but it doesn't help,
may be i have to keep my phone battery above 50% at outdoor,
may be i can just plug in the phone most of the time even sleeping,
may be i should wait for LG/dev bugfix, since i have already wait one and half year for cm10 and ICS, wait is what i can do
just hoping my o2x can hold on until i buy nexus 4 at a reasonable price
My phone (galaxy mini) has battery life issue on cm10.1 rom, which is that battery drains very very fast. for example, i just do texting, browsing, tweeting and lil bit gaming, my phone battery lasts only for 4 hours, even less. i ve used tweaks, scripts, apps to improve the battery life.
I found these all work:
No. 1: calibrate your battery
drain your battery till your phone shut down, charge it till is full (wait till no charging sign on the battery icon - ignore charged notification on lockscreen).
do it couple of times.
No. 2:
a. change this line in build.prop
from
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
to
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=1
Click to expand...

from
0 0 android
0 1 adreno200
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
to
0 0 adreno200
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No. 3:
odex the rom (partially, so you are able to change phone's theme).
Follow these steps:
1. move these apps : contacts,
mms, phone, settings and systemui, from /system to another folder (use non-default launcher).
2. run the app (attached on this thread forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2156287 ).
3. ur phone will automatically reboot.
4. move back contacts,
mms, phone, settings and systemui to the /system after odex has finished.
No. 4: recalibrate battery using rom
(use lastest erikcas' cm10.1 rom or goldchang's cm10)
it happens times ago.
so today i backed up the rom. then i installed goldchang's cm10 (my phone lasts up to 12 hours in standar usage when i was using this rom), i used this rom for couple of hours, and i backed it up. then i did factory reset-wipe cache partition-wipe dalvik cache and battery stats. and i restored rohan's rom. i dont know how, but now my battery life gets much much longer. it's been almost 6 hours (when im typing this thread), my battery has 29% remaining. for me it's superr.

hopefully those work on ur phone.
credits belong to
rohan , erikcas and devs for awesome rom.

no.3 to nixoman for odex thread.
and goldchang.
g'day and salaam.

the trick is with battery stats wipe and not with goldchangs rom...that's quick calibration..
some times old battery data might cause excessive drain..so wipe battery stats also while installing a new rom...it wont effect much but u never know..i recently saw an article about this in google tech page somewhere
but mostly the drain might due to an app, so see if the app activity is still running in background even after u killed it..if such an app exists then uninstall it u will get more battery life..
actually, i wiped battery stats after fully charged maany times and freeze some apps too, those things didn't work.
well, like i mentioned before, i have no idea how it happens, but my battery life gets much longer, for real, yay.
yeah, but what if the 'background' app is must not be stopped i.e launcher, we shouldn't stop it right?
we talking about 1200mah baterry, righT? manufacture said it last for 6 hours of Edge, that means heavy usage, right? so, if you are using your phone a lot, that means 6 hours of internet, mms and calling, it wont get any over 6hours...for me, facebook offiiciall app and whatsapp drain battery like hell...so i delete fb, but whatsapp is must for me...same result...so no matter you do, even with deep sleep, its 6 hours of heavy usage...i also have Nokia e7, same capacity of battery, and same durability, 6 hours of heavy usage, except on nokia e7 battery goes quickly for its screen , not background app...android consume a lot of battery, its a fact, so there is no a chance that someone else calibration or tweaks can result better battery capacity...but, if you set your CPU mhz at normal level (600-248 at ondemand), you can get a good battery backup...is that cpu level its ok for you, than its ok..but running cm10.1 with that cpu level for anything else but music and opera mini, its useless...so, what ever you do, its still 1200mah capacity, remember that...your usage, is something else
take a look at my first post, my phone had has three 'phases':
1. rohan's rom before (poor battery)
2. goldchang's (awesome battery)
3. rohan's after (awesome battery, yay!)
my phone usage on those three is nearly same, even the number three i suppose is the heaviest because i haven't charge my phone till now (i charge whenever battery came to 4-1%, it's long enough from my last charging). take a look at ss.
here's a thread about battery calibration
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1821870
*there's a link tells that battery calibration is a myth, IDK
About Battery Callibration, I dont think it increases battery life. It just resets the .bin file stats to show the battery indicator (in status bar) correctly. Do it once after you flash a new ROM (after charging 100% + 15-30 minutes) & then calibrate either from CWM by resetting battery stats/ using the app in playstore called battery callibration . It will then show the correct battery indications.
Many people dont do this and then they complain about battery dropping suddenly but it is actually not dropping. Its just the indicator which is wrong.

so is that means when indicator says phone is fully charged, the fact is not full charged?

Only the first time you flash a new ROM. Just let that notification come and then charge an extra 15-30 minutes & then callibrate once. Thats more than enough.
Re: [Tips] Prolong Battery Life on Rohan007's cm10.1 rom
I tested battery with Extremely Heavy and Harsh usage. And it lasted for 1:40 mins.
What was the test?
Running whatever the phone could.
So what was running?
1. Wifi(scanning mode, not connected to any wifi)
2. Bluetooth (scanning mode all the time not just 120sec; not paired, connected with any device)
3. GPS with Gps essentials app: struggling to lock GPS for 15 min, then locked for 10min, then again lost the lock... in short it was alternating in lock and unlocked states with time gap of 10-15 min as I was indoor)
4. Video Playback: Alternating Background/foreground playback of 320x240 to 640x480 res Videos with mx player
5. Screen brightness 100%, wake lock on, speaker volume 50%, cpu usage 600mhz ondemand
6. camera on all the time(+ small 10min video recording), with gps essentials app
7. Egprs: 20min surfing, sync on all the time(no social apps)
8. May be I forgot something.
Specs:
Device: galaxy mini
ROM: CM7 autoradio v8 or CM10.1 (forgot)
Battery: A newly purchased genuine 15 day used battery.
Note:
Test date: 6-feb-2013
Everything I mentioned was CONSTANT, SIMULTANEOUS On for all the test period.
Battery was calibrated which was showing true stats.
I do not have any battery usage (right now searching for any screeshot if i captured, mistakenly )
phew, so harsh test. how did it managed. In normal scenario the battery only last for 4-5hrs with no gps, wifi, Bluetooth, camera or 3g on. Maybe I will switch to Stock rom for long lasting battery usage as battery charging even when the phone is off is totaly, wierd.
Like post? Just Thanks me in ur hearts, no need to "presss" thanks.

you can do it with Titanium Backup Pro... settings > Integrate sys dalvik into rom
Hello guys, sorry for my bad english, but I'm not American. Well, my question is:
I bought from a guy a Galaxy S I900b, Brazilian model with digital TV. Came with stock 2.3. As I had already read enough before, upgraded to JWB Saurom with semaphore kernel, which I think is the default for this rom. Well, the phone had very poor battery life, evn on idle. Then upgraded to 10.2 CM. I saw that had some wakelocks, and with BBS and the help here, I used the Scan Media Root and my problems are gone in iddle. So, my phone goes into deep sleep and today during my sleep, only lost 3% battery, 3% battery drain on idle during about 5-6 hours it very good to me. But during use, it ends up very fast, and with GSAM and standard monitor of the android, I saw that after the screen, the Android system was what had higher %% battery. So what could it be ? The battery life is ok, checked on info, and its condition is 'good'. I use to Greenify, and close almost every game\app, so running is just grenify and ram manager pro.
So the prob just could be a app or the 'android system' ? Or even hardware ?
I dont have much time now, so any info or screenshot you want, I can provide later
Thanks
What about your connections? Do you have 3G/wifi enabled at all times?
calibrate....maybe useless, but u can try....but somehow, try bigger mAh battery, maybe.....n maybe .... it will help.
juz charge it with screen turn on till it full, n waste it to 0% till it shut down, turn it on n charge it with screen on till it full again, u ll be fine
if problem occur again, keep an eye for sneaky app that run at background (email...exchange etc) n juz delete some sys app that u dont use using titanium.
if it still occur again, wait for arc reactor battery....

I've deleted the batterystats.bin and used until 0%, so charged while off, but nothing :C
It's true that the battery needs to 'learn' ? Like, a few charges and discharges and could estabilize ?
I'll take a few screenshots right now
Callibration of you battery eg: Wipe battery stats is onluy helpfull when you get weird battery stats.
If you are on any CyanogenMod ROM you have to get used to the higher ammount of battery use by the phone. The application Greenify can help a lot by hibernating the huge battery suckers like facebook and google maps.
Some tips:
- use 2G instead of 3G
- Turn WIFI off when you're outside the house or leaving for some time
- Turn GPS/Bluetooth on only when you're about to use it
- Dont use taskkillers (they are used to free up ram but killing apps makes android restarts them and this consumes extra juice)
- Put brightness on Auto
- Use a dark theme and background/lockscreenwallpaper
- Dont recharge your phone when below 5% this can damage the battery
- A new battery needs to "Get used to" the life of being a battery xD After a few recharging cycles it will work like normal
Here some screenshots, if need more, just ask
Note: Was with 14%batt, rebooted and drops to 11-10%

i am using greenify on almost everything.
used to use ram manager, but now i've disable it.
brightness is on low
I really dunno what 2 do ... almost 1 week with it and this insane drain, everyone says that plays or browser on wifi and get almost 10 hours... my dream this happen to me lol
Remember that this is just on use, on idle it use virtually nothing, like I said, almost 3% on sleep, but is just I start use with app or browser and its gone
Screens are from a too short period of useage. Use it from fully charged, and make some new screenies This can help futher
Well i got problems with my battery too so im planning to buy a new one because this one cant even handle 3-4 hours when im doing something like playing games,or listening music...Just buy new battery with more mAh and dont get bother with this :laugh:

It looks like wifi and 3G have been kept on for most/all of the time. Turning those off while you're not using them may significantly increase battery life.
Also, related to kernels, personally I've found Mackay to be a bit better in terms of battery.
Also it looks like your screen's pretty bright if 61% of the battery usage is because of it. So if you don't need it so bright turning the brightness down may help.
Start by doing those, and see how your battery life fares first- if not much changes, then it may help getting a bettery battery/changing rom even.

So, like i said, in this 2 hours after charge, i've used opera mini with wifi, I dont use 3g. Right now the battery is less than 10%... it's strange since have people telling that can use almost 5 hours wifi and the battery is > 50%
And the brightness is at lowest bright :\
The problem could be some corrupted file ? I have the options:
- format EVERYTHING, and dont use titanium backup, since somthing can be corrupted.
- change my kernel to Mackay
- change my room back to SAUROM 2.3.6 adn semaphore kernel
I'm very sad cuz I have a very old Nokia E5 that can be on with wifi almost or more than 10hours ... and this phone can barely hold 5hour
What u suggest me to do ?

How long have you been using the rom? Roms take time to calibrate the battery and this is through charge/discharge cycles.
Alternatively, go into Performance settings and change the profile to powersave/conservative (it differs from rom to rom). Lock the min CPU frequency to 200mHz- apparently this helps.
Again, this would change depending on your kernel.
And if you have a three year old battery like mine, best not to expect miracles...

Using bout 2 days ... but i didnt knew about ' calibrate '. Good to know that
Now i've formated everything and will put a stock 2.3 and see in a couple of days the perfomance ... if gets better, I put the saurom 2.3.6 and be with it, cuz 2.3.6 on brazilian model allow to use digital tv, and 2.3 everyone says is economic.
I'll get this updated if my situation changes, if not, will buy a new battery
Thanks for all your help
Note: How long your batt last ? With high\low usage
