I Need some tips to get better Battery Life! - LG Optimus 4X HD

So i just rooted my 4X the other day and just downloaded a few apps that required root and Ive noticed that my battery would drain alot faster!
My battery would decline about -%5 every 10 minutes. It used to only drop 3% every 10 minutes!
So if anyone has the same issue or knows any tips please help ):

Maybe under clock cpu
My phone set to 850mhz. Still good for daily usage.
Im not sure about battery life
But i think feel better battery life

Try 250 min and 800-1100 (depending on kernel) and on demand for governer. I turn my gps off and am using lfy1.95 for my rom and my battery last about 9 hrs with lots of web,angry birds,twitter and sms,news widget.

I have a d1 and I'm OCd to 1.2gHzand my battery lasts the better part of a day with plenty of texting, phone calls, internet and gameboid. It is a lil unstable when too many apps are running in the background however. Btw I just noticed you said you had a hero. If so, you might wanna post your question in the HTC hero forum. Just a heads up for ya.

the question was about a droid not a hero

My droid runs good at 250 min and 700-1000 max. If it gets hot, which it likes to, I have setcpu set to scale it back to 600.
I'm using a P3 kernel, 125-1000. I have min at 125 and max at 900, interactive. Battery life is great, heat is great and runs great. (lot of greats, but that is Miui).

Post your CPU setting

Guys I am starting this thread so that it will be useful for all.
Post your frequencies and share battery life.

Dunno how you measure battery life but here are my settings
Lasts me 2-3 days depending on how much I use the phone.
Overall I get 3-4 hours screen time mostly on auto brightness. Using venom viper rom and redux kernel

I'm Using Project X with Redux 0.7.
Just Using SmartAssV2 with 245-1024Mhz (Both During Screen off and on) Battery life is almost 20+ Hours with Normal usage(3G, Youtube, Call, msg)
Earlier, I had Different LionheartX for Screen off with (122-245Mhz) But its not good for my settings. so, i'm using smartassv2.
Choose the right governer to have the Good Battery life. Hope below thread will give you some info about kernel Governers. Just define the appropriate Governer based on your Usage.

[Q] Best CPU settings for games in Apocalypse ROM?

Hey, all.
I am running the apocalypse ROM on my SGA.
While playing, i noticed that Jetpack Joyride lags a lot.
What will be the best CPU settings and governor for gaming?
Please let me know your opinion.
Also, I rarely over clock it beyond 844mhz, so is it a good idea to go beyond?
Thanks.
Peace out.

864 or even 883 is pretty stable for me
Maximum clock speeds vary with device..Impossible to give an exact figure or predict anything

I agree.
But I was just wondering which would be the best governor for gaming. Everyone may have different opinions.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda app-developers app
I have mine on 902mhz, always stable, very fast and very good for gaming, the best governor for gaming is either lagfree or performance.
Best of luck!

I've been wanting to OC that high, but I've been afraid of heat. You had any issues, notice it running hotter than normal?

But are you site you have no over heating issues?
And what is the minimum CPU frequency you set?

well if you scared of crashes, heat and battery drain you can set maximum to 864mhz, minimum to 245 mhz and set governors to performance will be very stable and faster. it depends on your device. i found my ace oc to 902mhz is not stable for me, it crashes often and very hot, drains the battery about 1% 6-7 mins.

underclocked o4x

my battery is so horrible it lasts 5 houers. i tried underclocking by using the app SET CPU. i clocked it down to 1ghz, and doesent see mutch inprovment. and the phone is just as smoth at 1ghz as it is on 1,5 ghz. is it any danger in having it underclocked at 1ghz?and ehen clocking it with set cpu, does it only underclock 2 of 4 prossesors? i read that it onlu clocks 2 of the 4 prosessors, and why? thank u!
Well i underclocked mine to 720 u even can go lower then that. But then it starts to get buggy. And it seems like something must be keeping ur phone awake. That's bad battery if u don't use it. If u used it 5 hours straight then that isnt to shabby.

Battery duration

How about your battery duration? The mine is 2 hours in continuing use in navigation with 3g,cm7 and p990h model. The phone overheats in camera zone and the undervolt dont fix nothing.

this is my experience too. I´m loading everyday at work, so i have enough battery for the rest of the day
quite good
always on 3g ,1.5 h music ,40 sms ,some surf over 3g and wifi ( during lunchtime )
if i make a light usage ,i can manage to last 2 days , i'm quite satisfied
i last 3 days if i dont use wifi /3G and with second core disabled (i make it during trip)
i'm on CM7 Hybrid revolution by stefan.
I think your phone have a REAL problem, even if i try i just cant empty my batt in 2 hours (even with OC ,screen backlite maximus ,and playing riptide online.......i lasted 3 h)

Also, consider that wifi drain with this phone is extremely bad in general. Not surprising, actually, considering what pengus77 recently found out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37051590

Same here Have to admit, phone barely saw any use those days.

i think it would make more sense to rate your battery life by stating how long the screen was on and on what conditions (wifi on/off/ 3g/ 2g/ brightness lv/ have you been watching video or playing games/ just typing sms or what ever)
my record was about 6h screen on time at 25% brigtness, 2g, gaming about half of that time. but i suspect the battery is getting old now, since i struggle to reach 3.5 h screen on time with the same conditions and much less gaming.

I tried with this rom and the problem with the Battery is the same 2 hours with max 1ghz and - 50 undervolt, i believe that the problem is hardware instead of software.
