You need to give more info then that.
What version of rom you using?
Which kernel/version you using?
What apps have you installed?
Do you use wifi/gps?
Did you use search before creating topic?
btw, you dont need to manually type [q] in your title. "[Q]" automatically gets added when you enable the "Is this a question" feature when creating topic.

i'v 144 Apps .. neither the widgets .. do you want me to name it all .. idk someone did that before right .. btw i don't use the Tab during am writing this comment but its still sucks the battery ..
and yes i use WIFI .
overcome tell us the solution for the battery life . but the solution didn't work with me
anyways thanks for ur reply .
btw i didn't type [q] i just thick the ' Is this a question ' ... tnx for your advice ..
I have actually noticed a decline in battery life since I flashed to Overcome. In the few days, before I flashed my tab, I could idle the tab for 10 hours and use like 2% battery. After flashing overcome, I cant get no where near that idle time, and I get just under 10% per hour full usage (games or video playback).
I'm using Overcome 1.6.1, no live backgrounds, and somewhere around 85 apps.

Strange, Ive never had a battery issue on any of the builds, even when overclocked. Its got to be something you have installed and running in background.
Go to settings>phone>about>battery use and it will tell you what using most battery. There is also programs like SystemPanel or Taskkiller etc.
If the [Q] wasn't capitalised then you must have tried to title your topic all i capitals so site reversed it, next time title topics properly

1st of all . the battery charges take so many time to charge full even though if its 95 its take around 15 to 20 mins to full charge .. and when i take the charge it give 99 even if its says the charge full ..
if my tab is off screen its also suck my battery life seriously .. i don't use live wallpaper i only use a normal image .. i don't know what is the problem .. am really thinking to replace overcome .. the prob is i like overcome even if it doesn't support arabic
any ideas
I never got any problems with the battery life in all Overcome roms.
Currently i use Overcome 1.6.1 with 2.1.4 kernel and battery life is good.
Idle overnight with WiFi enabled it uses 6%
Idle overnight with my dataplan it uses 3% and idle time is approx 12 hours.
In the idle time i have my Gmail synced, twitter, weather ect
In full use and full display light i can use my Tab for approx 6 hours.
I have to mention that my Tab is not Oc-ed

i turn off the tab to charge and see .. i off the tab i plug again the charger and guess what ... its still charge since 10mins
i'll do again wipe battery status and see .. this is the 4th time i'll do the wipe for battery .... i don't know what is the prob
so i wipe the battery but nothing happen .. so i just backup all the stuff ... going to re flash again
wipe data , wipe factory reset ...
flash again the rom and the kernel ...
.... i hate my tab cuz every week something new need to flash need to wipe need to reset
EDIT .. flashed again with wipe factory and factory rest and nothing happen after i flashed the kernel and the rom
My battery seems to drain fast too
I updated to Kernel 2.15 and Overcome 1.63 last night. It seems to drain 1% every 1.5-2 minutes when I use it with WIFI and 3G on. It drained 6% last night over 6 hours on standby mode (after I shortly pressed the power key).

I know there are some Gallery issues which drains your battery after using it.
But other then that i think some people expecting to much to fast to see some battery life progress on custom roms.
On the first fresh install i had also a drain.
You have to be aware that after a fresh rom install you have to let the battery settle for a couple off charges.
Yesterday i also took a complete reinstall by the guide provided in the Overcome thread.
I did this because i have some issues with FC's on receiving gmails.
After that fresh install and restoring my apps ect.
I went playing with it, first i did 2 hours of surfing over wifi.
Later playing Black Pegasus Modern Combat for 3 hours.
I started of with 67% battery and didn't have the battery calibrated
So after 5 hours of heavy use the Galaxy Tab battery was empty.
This morning i calibrated the battery.
And after a full cycle charge in 2 hours i didn't touch my Tab at all.
After 4 hours i still have 97% battery left.
It is common that when you take your from the charger it instantly drops to 99% (No worry)
So 2% lost in 4 hours in idle standby with 3g on and syncing XDA app every 15min, Twitter every 5 min, email every 30min, Gmail (Push), weather every hour.
I think it's battery life is great.
Beware the screen of our Tab's are using a great deal of battery life.
Even 50% brightness sucks your battery empty.
I have it set on 30% which is good for use in the evening.
Daytime and sunlight it sucks at 30% but since i never use my Tab outside it will work for me.
Hello!
I cant imagine that the battery is draining because of overcome rom or kernel. Since i flashed it my battery life is suprisingly good, even when overclocked!

Same here...
I know there is a Gallary 3d issue when using it your battery is draining.
Alterbridge is working on that.
If people followed the flash and battery calibrate guide Overcome should have a nice battery life.
I don't know what apps people are using at the moment but it could be an app which is poorly written.
guys im flashing overcome even before the guide posted ...
and about the live wallpaper .. i don't use it .. because i use a honeycomb theme
and about the calibrate of the battery i already did it many times from overcome guide or even from the apps in market .. i knw wat am doing .. i never get on in something that i don't know wat exactly means ...
cheers
Hello all,
I have confirmed the following issue on my Optimus 2x with stock 20L. Nothing else, nothing special.
When I leave the phone standby for several hours (eg. during the night), when I get back to it and turn on the screen, the network signal/3G indicators are white - meaning no internet connection.
After around 10 seconds, 3G reconnects itself.
While this is annoying, since you don't get any notifications from programs using the internet (WhatsApp, Facebook etc), it gets worse.
After 3G reconnects itself, the battery drains really fast: about 30 seconds for 1%. So in a few minutes your battery will be completely drained.
This even continues while rebooting.
For example: I come back to my phone and it has 46% left. Then I notice the 3G disconneced and reconnecting and then power starts dropping really fast. I reboot at 43% power left. After the reboot, there's only 18% left but the draining has stopped.
I at least had this happen twice in four days.
Is anyone else noticing this, or does any of the developers out here perhaps has a fix or a custom rom in which it is fixed?
I really like 20L for some new features, but I'm also experiencing issues with GPS and now also this... I'm really thinking of going back to 10D.
Thanks for any help or insights you can give me.

I also have huge battery drain, but in my case the main culprit is OnScreen Phone. Left my phone with 100% in the evening and in the morning, after exactly 8h, the battery was at 70%. Of that, 50% was used by OSP, and 25% each Idle and Cell standby. With the phone on wireless, froyo used at most 10% instead of the 30% used by GB now.
Yes you should remove all background running apps, especially the sh..y LG one Phone on Screen, but also checking for others, like media share programs and so on.
One time with my present ROM I had a storm in my battery with tremendous drain.. I had to do a fresh reinstall, and since then no problem.
Thanks for your replies, but this is different.
The battery only starts draining when 3G reconnects and you can literally see it happen.

Same happening here. I'm running on topogigi 2.0 SP3.
With Baseband 725 I'm having this issue. Now I'm on 622 will see tomorrow what happens
Edit: I'm noticing, that even if I have full signal with an "H" the phone starts switching from H to 3G and back when I turn the screen on
I think I can confirm that huge battery drain on GB is because of the radio. The reporting of huge consumption by OnScreen Phone or Gallery may be wrong.
I left last evening my phone fully charged on Flight Mode and after 8:30 it consumed a mere 1-2%. With Flight mode off GB uses like 30% and Froyo used 10%. So I suppose the radio is the main culprit. As you can see in my screenshots, the Gallery process is said to have used the most energy, but it wasn't even started. And some days ago OSP was in place of Gallery. In the third screenshot you can notice how the drain started when I turned off the Flight mode and browsed for 45 min or so.
Could it be that we're experiencing this huge radio drain because of the incorrect baseband? I suppose we all have the generic Euro Open/Italian v20L ROM, and maybe our networks need a correct baseband for our specific operator?

The first time i experienced the battery drain problem i had no rooted phone with official Gingerbread update from LG. That was last week. The Baseband was exactly the same as from Froyo 10D (725).
With Froyo I had no battery drain at all. So LG must have messed something up - that was my thought...
since then i rooted my phone and installed topogigis rom on fr, 4th nov. At the weekend i was in areas where the signal strength was very good (H in status bar).
On monday no battery drain on my place of work where signal is very bad (G in status bar).
Since tuesday battery drain is back. I get reconnects after reconnects when the signal is weak. Even when the signal is very good my phone jumps from H to 3G and back. What the hell is that?
You need to flash the GB baseband released with the rom, the 0725 basebands are not the same. Flash the 0725 baseband in the v20l thread of Hell_97 and try again. Without it there are many issues.
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
Maybe I was a little uncertain:
- Last Wednesday (2nd nov) I had an unrooted phone with froyo. In the morning I checked for an update with LG Software and boom I had Gingerbread.
- Until friday I had heavy battery drain (9h and battery was at 5%). I was so angry and thought f*** you LG-Guys I'm flahing topogigi's rom. I flashed the Baseband 725 from his thread. On Saturday to Monday evening no problems at all.
- On Tuesday my phone again had very bad signal an it was often active (in the Battery-Usage Menu were much of those blue bars.
- Yesterday I flashed 625 Baseband -> problem not solved
- today I flashed 502 (from LG U660 10S update). I will look how it works.
What I noticed on all Gingerbread roms is, that the phone often Disconnects an Reconnects. I think that's making the heavy battery-darin.
But I have no idea how to fix that...

If you have updated through LG update tool, your Baseband had been updated to last (=the one recommended for Hell ROM), and above all the one recommended by LG for your area...
I think you should put back this one...

I've read many threads about this issue, but couldn't find a solution for Optimus 2X because on our phone, the PDP Settings in the HiddenMenu aren't implemented yet, so we can't disable Fast Dormancy.
I've found a workaround when you're at home: you can change the WiFi policy to never sleep, so during the night, the phone will use WiFi only instead of 3G while it's sleeping. But still, this doesn't hep you at all when you have no WiFi available.
I called LG this morning and they sad I'm the first reporting this problem (huge 3G battery drain on newly released Gingerbread)
Has anybody found another solution?
Manually upgraded over stock non rootable CarPhone Warehouse GB rom using PC Odin.
Im getting very bad batrery drain. On the stock GB rom my phone would easily last two days with moderate use. Now with the ICS rom its draining pretty fast. I took it off the charger approximately 1.5 hours ago and with little to no use Im already at 90%. Same stock settings and same apps. Only difference is I am now using Apex Launcher.
I noticed wifi constantly on even during deep sleep but i have now configured it to only be on while plugged in.
Ive pulled he battery out for a few minutes and that hasnt helped. One last thing im going to try is revert back to GB and then wipe, clear cache and upgrade again...
Any advice/help would be appreciated..

I´ve had the same wifi problem, german stock ICS though, weird enought it seems to happen just with my home´s router. I´ve checked in other places and all was fine. A couple of users here changed their routers seemed to solve the issue. See if this is of any help....

Yeah, i updated to the lpy ROM when it was released and found the lack of deep sleep issue causing a problem. The above fix sorted it and I've had no problems since, performance has been noticeably better and battery life has been just as good, if not slightly better, than under ginger bread

Takes longer to analyse bro.
In those 24 min abnormal battery drain?
Best to check battery percentages.
Next to these two apps you can check badassmonitor or equavalent, they have also good measuring for actual battery usage per app.
Analysing sucks thought, totally not user friendly.

I could be wrong but it seems as if my wifi is still constantly active...battery drain is pretty bad...i think im going to revert back to GB, perform a full wipe and cache cleane and re install...
I did an "factory data reset" before and straight after i upgraded to the official UK ICS.
I did read if you use the alarm clock, it keeps your phone awake, even after you disable it, other apps most likely do the same.
Below is a picture over night, I always manually enable/disable wifi/bluetooth/gps as have yet to find an app that works correctly.
John.
Yeah tipically you would be looking for the following:
If your device goes into deepsleep at all. (on battery that is)
You can check this with cpu spy.
If it doesnt check the kernel wakeloks (high level) and the partial wakeloks (zoomed into detail level, best level for troubleshooting).
Anything there that runs often and long is probably causing the deepsleep insomnia. I wish Android would be better in able to determine what really influences your phones battery.
Next to this, some apps you can change synch settings (within apps itself, e.g. facebook etc) Thats just a typical change. every sync uses energy, and wakes up device.
Another possible check is the power on of with airplane mode.
Another tip is unchecking the sounds when touching touchscreen (a bug from the old days of android, and they never fixed) this is a major wakelock causer and by default turned on.
I usually get 4~5 hours nonstop onscreen time after tweaking it (without setting to much stuff of, otherwise I could have gotten a normal phone lmao)
after factory reset and data wipe on your galaxy note please calibrate the battery both ways...horizontal and gyroscope.
This will definitely help your phone better monitor the battery and bring it to normal status..

I tried out the steps mentioned in above link and I think its working for me.
After upgrading my note to UK ICS release the battery is drainig like anything.
Its like 1% every minute .
After applying steps mentioned in the url its not draining that much. MAy after some more recharge cycles it will be more stable.
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:

About 2 hours later that I fully charged, here are some ss
Just used whatsapp and opera in this time
I was thinking in change my kernel, currently I'm using semaphore 3.0 with CM10.2, is Latrop or Mackay better in battery life ?
I think its my last shot ... I'll provide a new battery next week, but i've heard some people with batt probs that even with new batt the problem persists :crying:

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
I hope some one could help me ...
My galaxy I9305 have for 2 or 3 weeks now... leaked battery very fast
When i pull out the phone from charger at 06.00 AM (its at 100%)
when its 08.30 AM its about 80%
In that period is both wifi and data disabled..also gps and bluetooth
But the strange thing is .. from 08.30 AM to 03.00 PM
it only use about 20%
In that period i use my phone in my lunchbreak ,surfing facebook, mails etc..
and all the time is data activated..
So now i wonder.. is there a way i can get a normaly battery leak from in 8 hours ( about 25%)
Is the battery stats ****ed up.. or what could it be..
Im using a sentinel 6.0 Kit-Kat rom
I really hope that someone could help me...
BTW... all my apps is the same ... over 3 the last 3 weeks..

The first period i though is strange, case with everything disabled and if you are not using the phone, it should has decreased at max 4% in 2 hours (wich already is too much for me). I can't compare with mine cause i'm on stock unbloated and agni kernel.
The second period must be normal, if you said you were surfing through facebook, mails.. I assume you used your phone at least 3 hours with screen on. Screen kills most of the battery and thats normal. And you said you was on mobile data.. mobile data consumes more battery than wifi, so use wifi when available.
The best for you to help us help u would be take some screenshots of the battery usage at some times, because we don't have sure how many time the screen was on from 6:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Make another test taking some screenshots of battery usage in details so someone here can help you bro
ok many thx.. i will take some screenshot...
I suggest a read of this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2551846
I know it's lengthy and most might not apply but it is what improved my battery consumption.

you're going through the battery at an abnormal rate especially if your wifi and mobile data are off... What type of battery do you have is it stock or something else?
