My battery has been sluggish right after updating 4.0.4. Right after restarting my device, i left only 20% of battery instead of 90% before restarting. Im getting sick n tired of samsung. Thers always a problem after software update. Im wondering wether they ever tested their software before releasing it to consumer. LOUSY

Calibrate your battery.
Let it empty untill blackout. Take out battery for 2 min then put it back again, and charge it to full, do not push the on button while charging.
My suggestion is to install and SPYCPU podesiš processor clock so you would not spend the battery more than they need. We also have a large selection governo, naćićeš best balance of performance and battery life.
Thanks jonpaslim! i will try to do that and will update the results

Hi dickwyn, thanks for your reply.

The total of 1 week I was on both OS builds I had these issues that I identified to be the battery:
Facebook
GPSD
and then not going into deep sleep (the phone gets warm)
Badass Battery (now another name, but you can still search Badass battery) and BBS (Better Battery Stats) helped me.
Thanks zkye.
So far i hv been using pretty alot of apps. Been using carat,netqin and cpu spy. Well the batt is still i would say average.. Im wondering how to read this thing on cpu spy. Especially the deep sleep graph. Is it sufficient? Or am i doing the wrong thing or what?

You can check version in settings, then about phone in bottom Guess you are on stock. Be carefull wiping, factory resetting and deleting large files as kernel can trigger a bug in emmc chip, corrupting partitions.
good you started analysing root causes. Always best case.
now if you dont care for warrantee you can follow directions from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29139461 to get back to starting point of install. Or to install the awesome speedmod kernel.
Alteratively you can add apps one by one and together with battery usage analysed you can fin culprits. With tools like betterbatterystats, cpu spy and badassbattery monitor

did you try re-calibrating your battery?
Hi xfox,
Done with calibrating as in let it empty, take out the batt for a while then turn it on again. It seems okay for now. Is there any other way instead? Im sorry for asking this stupid question again and again. And thank to all of ya for replying my so called newby question. Lol.

Thanks baz,
How i wish i could use those speedmod kernel and so on. Well im quite afraid to root it cuz im not too sure that im gonna use this phone for a long time. As the phone value will decrease if i void the warranty. But thx for replying my post tho. As for now im still monitoring my batt behaviour.

Galaxy Note problem
When I got my Galaxy Note, the battery used to last for 10 hrs on GB. After upgrading to ICS, that time dropped to 8 hrs. And after ICS updates, it went down to less than 4 hrs since it was discharging much fatser than charging, and it was the same whether I used the original power charger or direct USB cable.
The original charger is an adapter + USB cable.
Everything went fine when i changed the USB and used the one originally used to charge the Sony 3D glasses.
Now it's charging normally and the discharge rate is around 8% /hr with WIFI and mobile data ON.
Hope it will work for you.

Can I flash a new ROM with 60 percent battery? I see where most ROM'S recommend flashing with a full battery. Does this affect anything like how much charge the phone thinks the battery has? Or are there other reasons to flash with a full battery?

It doesn't matter. I flashed at 5% once. The only thing you have to do is recalibrate your battery after.

That would be a big problem
I tend to always flash at 100%. Just to avoid any issues. But you can flash at 60% if you really wanted to. Just do a calibration
Do it with full battery . Calibrating takes ages

Trying to be a smart aleck, not confrontational...
If you are using odin, by definition the phone is plugged in to a USB power source. I suspect you couldn't drain the battery in that circumstance - maybe if you were plugged in, playing a video while serving up Mobile AP. But not when the screen is doing nothing but saying it's in download mode.
I have flashed through cwm with under 50%

That's assuming every one uses odin
I just clear data and cache and flash the new rom. But I charge up to 100% so the battery reads fine.

Yeah thats why I said "somehow". I thought about your point while posting though and it makes plenty of sense and im pretty sure you can charge a phone no matter what state it is in (soft brick, hard brick, waterlogged ha)
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Yea
I've flashed in the range of 50 - 100%, never had a problem
like others said you just have to recalibrate your battery after.
I probably wouldn't go less than 50% though just to be safe.
It would probably be best to flash on a full battery, but I don't think its necessary. Just recalibrate and wipe battery stats and you should be fine.
Yes you can. May need to calibrate

I have jvz stock with newest Semaphore kernel and the blue Elin Mod, and after my phone cut off because it was so dead, I booting into recovery mode and wiped dalve cache. Now I know it was super dead. Anyways, when I turned it back on, the date was set to January 1, 2005..... Presumably the dead battery caused this.
Could I have done any other harm?

I keep shifting from rom to rom but never had a problem. Recently after I shifted to Utacka's PA I have been having issues with the phone. Sometimes the battery charge drops to zero suddenly. Sometimes the phone screen flickers with bands across the screen and sometimes it just restarts on it's own. Even after shifting to Alliance's JB i get the similar issues. PLEASE HELP
Pullout the battery, is it bloated? Download betterbatterystats and check for what's using the battery most at these times, first place to start in guess.

Does your phone think its charging even when not plugged in. If so it's your USB charge flex board. It would show as battery plummeting to zero charge indicator flashing on off and in settings about phone status it would switch from charging to disconnected

Hey guys I just got a miui ROM running on my ace and the battery goes from full to empty in about a hour and half is there a fix anywhere for this I did have a look just I didn't see it buts that's not to say I didn't miss it. Would be grate full of any help
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
This problem could be could be due to the rom that you are using, although it seems strange for it to be that bad.
One thing you could try is underclocking to save power, it wont make too much difference but it is a start.
A second solution is to simply buy a new battery as your current one may just be old.
there is also the obvious basics: low screen brightness, stopping any unwanted services and try to steer away from live wallpapers
hope this helps.
You should test another rom
Change your ROM brother !
I've tryed a few rom's since I posted this battery must be done in. It fully charges in less than 10 mins and runs out in just over an hour fed up charging my phone lol

yes, its probably best to get a new on then, be careful though a lot of the ones on sale are fake so make sure that you find a real one.

Hello everyone. This is the third day I'm having the following issue: I turn off the phone at night with 50% battery, but when I wake up the smartphone doesn't boot, saying that there's no battery anymore.
Someone else had this issue?

wakelock detector. download from play store. and of course next time 1st search then ask
Do you turn it off completely or just lock it? If you shut it down then its quite strange, if not use the search function as mentioned above.
Sent from my 4X HD via XDA Premium
read please. he turned his phone OFF completely. there are no wakelocks then xP
OP, it might be a faulty battery. try to get the battery out for a night, put it back in the morning and check the status
lol. its obvious that he just described it wrong. u cant switch off the phone and lose 50% battery. he means he turned off display. the phone was supposed to "deep sleep". if he had it really switched off and lose 50% battery then he wouldnt ask. he would already know that his battery is dead and would kiss it bye bye....
if you look at his battery diagram, it kinda shows it was turned off, then turned on and it was on very low battery level, so i think he described it right. lets wait for OP for further info on the issue ^^
I shut the smartphone off. I'll try to check if this problem comes back having removed the battery, as suggested.

Turn your phone off, take the battery off at night and check how much battery you lose when you put it back in, the next day.
I think its just a dead battery, look how fast his battery drained down, it can't be simply wakelocks.My phone doesn't lose that much battery even with heavy gaming.
Anyways, google how to reset battery stats it might help or I don't know.If that doesn't work just replace your battery.
I thought yesterday that this wasnt possible.. Tonight, this happened to me...:laugh:
I turned my phone off with 63% and in the morning I couldnt turn it on.. When I turned it off, the hardware buttons were on for a couple of seconds... So maybe the phone got stuck on some frequency and drained the battery.. Very strange... Will pull out the battery tonight to test some more.
OK i tried to remove the battery. Everything works fine. So the problem must be something related to the phone or android. I think it's the second one, since this bug happened to my friend as well, but not with this frequency.
Sent from my LG-P880 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
It must be a problem with ROM, some bug that keeps the phone from shutting off. It must be stucked on some high frequency to drain so heavily!
