Is there any Music app out there that doesn't drain the whole battery in 3-5hrs? I've downclocked the phone to 456mhz when the screen if turned off but that still doesn't help.
So far I've tried Stock, Google Music and Poweramp but to no avail... Using Stock kernel w/ CM 7.2.
I'm open to all suggestions.

This is not normal. You have other, bigger problem then the player. When I listen music any music player and at the same time play games or browse with opera, my battery drain about 20-30% / 3-5hrs.

It's not normal too... you have a 5000mAh battery or what?
My battery's drain is as fast as the OP on stock ROM with PowerAMP or LG Musique

I will try it again tonight. Maybe I was wrong.
Apples1n try the Vadonka's 3.0 beta kernel! This is the far best kernel in terms of battery.
Now I use django's stock rom with gueste kernel, but the battery is much worse then cm7+etana.
I made a test. I listened music with stock player, and play with Wordz game (continues wifi using).
8% battery drain/30 minutes.
I have one years old stock battery.

if you take the time to let the phone do a few battery cicles, you will find out that you were wrong, in same conditions stock saves a lot more battery

The main problem by me where the dsp-settings.
when i used that, my battery drops 10/20% a hour.
now i use a Poweramp patch ( Poweramp pro for free)
search on google.
in my opinion it's the best music player with the best eqalizer
and the patch is a lot more saving battery's
when i use poweramp my battery drops 3/6 % an hour
so my advise is:
when you are rooted, google the poweramp patch and download it !

I am on cm7.2RC and i love it so far. Its fast, smooth and works like a charm. But the only one thing i hate about it is that it has terrible battery life. Within 3-4 hours of complete charge my battery runs down to 20%. I could flash a different rom but i dont wanna do that because i'm loving this rc build, well besides the terrible battery life.
Please help.

That's a problem within Cm7. It cannot be fixed at the moment...
Try custom CM 7 from KANG is awesome the audio is fixed and battery life is as good as stock!

I've been using an app called Juice Defender and it has honestly (almost) doubled my battery life. Give it a try! Worst comes to the worst, you just delete it

All juice defender does is disable the wifi and 3g when not needed. I disable them manually from habit after use and because of that battery increase was 0.
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda premium
you can do the same thing in tasker or even more as in juicedefender. Tasker is also cheaper.
Agreed, juicedefender will only disable wifi and 3g connections.
Do it manually, without the need to install other app, and save your battery... One day with wifi disabled you hardly will use more than 10% of your battery (without gaming, just music)
Juice defender no doubt disables wifi and cellular data and ofcorse you can do it manually but it has the option of disabling wireless connections when the screen is off which saves a little more battery life. Get the free version, coz i used the Ultimate one and besides more manual options nothing else is different.

Hi.
I know that while playing audio/music the partial wakelocks AudioOut_1 and android.media.MediaPlayer are present and keep the phone awake.
however, reading this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045195
does anyone or can anyone confirm the statement made in the link provided, where the person says that poweramp does not keep the phone awake even while playing music.
is there any other app that does the same?
Thanks in advance.

I think I know that, the thing that confused me was when he claimed that poweramp works while asleep. me being the idiot that I am, installed poweramp and have given it a shot. it doesnt go in sleep mode while playing music, but it does consumes alot less battery than stock player.

Nea, poweramp is like the only thing that keeps my phone awake.
But i must say that if only poweramp is running the phone still last a very long while, so it's not really a biggy for me.

The screen unintentionally received the thanks button while I was trying to respond to you. Anyway, I took the question from the OP as asking whether there was an app that turned off the screen while playing music.

The drain isnt caused by beats audio, it's v30b itself. You could try to use search, someone else already tried that. Then you need my system dump of v30b, replace the replaced files by beats and you ll be back to normal

Soo.. Beats isn't causing the drain? And btw, what is the average battery drain per hour with music being played on stock player, and 2g data connection switched on?

Gotta confess i didnt really have a close look at this yet, but what i know is, it s a lot... probably around 10-15% per hour, but i can only guess,since i didnt monitor it properly. But dont forget, that it also depends on the governor, iosched, other installed apps, that might keep the phone busy,... i ll try to have an eye on it in the coming days

Yep... That's what I'm getting... An hour of music, and around 15-20% drain

For me 1 hour of music about 10%... 15% isn't that bad too you know.. maybe you were listening at high volume, or used equalizers. But I don't think beats libs really acts as an equalizer..

Hello.
I'm looking for really good kernel for my phone. I've 2.6.39.4 kowalski-exp and battery life was horrible. I used my phone for 4h and now it's on 19%. Can someone tell me some really good kernel that supports Jelly bean and good battery life? Please help
Can you post your battery usage screen shot or if you have BBS installed please screenshot of BBS? That 4 hours phone usage that you are mentioning, is that 4 hours of voice call or 4 hours browsing? or what? If it is 4 hours with screen on with WIFI or 3G on all the time I think that is reasonable. I am using kowalski kernel and I have reasonable battery life.

I used wifi for about 1h. Maybe less, don't know. I played a game for maybe 2h. On original rom battery was way better, but ICS on Optimus 2x really sucks. So much lag, can't even open facebook in less than 10 sec.

if you play games 2h that is not horrible battery life...i recommend you latest tonyp build cm11 from 20. 01.2014 and latest penguss77 alpha 31...for me that is best combination ever...no such cm10.2, simply the best,forget about ICS and JB, kitkat is miles away better than them,in almost every segment, it has very low memory usage and good optimization...thats my opinion.bye

Hey guys,
since I only use my Mini as a music player I am looking for a Rom with decent battery life. I ofc have tried the various CM based roms from Novafusion but even if I never turn the screen on they drain 3% battery life per hour, even though I only have 5% wakelocks (since I also use amplify).
Is there any Rom within the region of 1%-2%? I mean, it should be possible considering that I basically only have installed Poweramp and nothing else but CM just doesn't deliver that.
Everything from KK and up is fine, don't really want to got back to JB.
Thanks guys!
