Dear All,
I've playing around with my fren's SGS2 and looking at the battery usage.. Seems like Display is taking 36-40% of his battery on the SGS2.. And cell standby on his phone is only using 6% of the battery..
On my OB, the display is only using 6% of the battery power and cell standby using 45%..
I was wondering whether is the cell standby taking up a big amount of the battery and causing my phone to run out of battery so often.. Althought the nova display is saving alot of power..
Just remember,it's on % not an exact point

can we flash the baseband?
Same problem here. I think it is a bug. There is no way that cell standby is consuming this much battery.

what baseband ? sgs ?
Well it depends. If you leave your phone overnight its cell standby will be at a higher percentage than display, since the display wouldn't be used at all

i think using 10% of battery to standby for 8 hours seems too much.. BTW.. I am using singtel networks..

Hi
I am using Zeus v1 rom and I have the same problem. At night with phone in standby, in about 8h it spends 10% or more. With everything of and in 2g and gsm.
I have the same problem when using the indian based official GB. My battery drained in 10 hrs of minimal use. no wifi or 3g just 2g service. I followed the instruction on flashing another GB update which is for V20b & v20n but did not succeed in wiping data & flashing superuser. I am still waiting for helpful guides from the seniors here.
With regards to the original posters comment you need to remember that the percentages that are posted when you go to the battery use in settings are a percentage of the battery used. The only way that the two handsets could really be compared is if they have both been used in the same way for the same amount of time.
How long are you getting out of a charge and how heavily do you use your phone will give a better indication of the standby usage in relations to your friends handset.

The myth 2 is the best for battery and speed. I use it every day with wi-fi or data activate using whatsapp, sms, and music without battery problems
But i haven't activate the background data!

which app2sd script will suitable for myth 2
Correct me if I'm wrong but CM7 consumes more than stock (bloatware free), so I'd suggest optimized stock roms instead if you want battery. There are a2sd for stock as well.
I have no complaint's about using Stocklite V7.1, I too use whatsapp all day and I usually have around 30% left.
I'm using the myth 2 for about two weeks now and i have to say it's one of the best stock based rom i've ever seen.
A2SDGUI is preinstalled in this rom and working perfectly for me.
Thread moved to Q & A section, post I'm the relevant section next time.
With data network enable all day I don't think there's any ROM can make your battery last for 24-26 hrs. I think The Myth 2 probably the best ROM about battery, but I don't think it can make your phone survive for 24-26 WITH data always on...

i've been using Apocalypse for a while now can get around 24-30 hours out of it with 3g n wifi on most of the day but i have underclocked with setCPU to save that bit more power and dont use video on there that much

Stocklite is the best!
Even a Adrenaline rom is pretty good.
Go for a stock rom, You'll get more battery life
Myth 2 best
I am using Myth rom for more than 2 months now without any problems..................try it once i think u will never go to any other
ohk lemme try myth 2

I am also searching the answer for this question that is there any rom can last about 12 hrs continuous data uses on 2G?
But unfortunately there is no rom can fulfill your expectation.
But here i have some suggession
Install stocklite 7.1,battery extender version 1.5, slaidboost 480 and set a profile of underclocking cpu in set cpu.
This is enough for it or otherwise
You have to change battery with more mAh like 1600 mAh or simply change the phone.

I'm not sure that if my phone has a low battery life or others as well . When I go to bed , my phone was at 70% and I wake up after 8 hours of sleep . My phone dropped to 58% . Is that a normal case or should I get a new battery pack ?

Try CPU spy and see if there's any app which is keeping the phone from deep sleep.

i'm using 1800 mugen power battery. it's better on about 20/30 % and you can really see that. so if you want to buy new battery - better buy this one than original. i'm working with it for half of a year n everything is fine.
about your battery - yes, it can go in that way and its normal for our dev.

Mine is about the same as yours, 100% at sleep and 88(at times it's 87 or 86) or so when I wake up. But I think I slept for about 10h
Edit*
Atm it's at 80% and it has been on battery for 13h exactly
im having issue with poor battery life on this device too up to 5hrs ~)
A tip is to disable sweep2wake if you have it enabled. it consumes a lot battery. Since I disabled it yesterday my battery gained a couple of hours battery life.
Using Longevity on CyanVivo X Rom and very impressed with the battery backup, Lasting over 18 Hours with average 3G data use and gaming before it was like 8-10 hours with Juice defender. Don't keep data on all the time otherwise use longevity Worth a try!

does juice defender n other save batt apps really works? we can just manually change the settings to reduce batt usage .

Imo it's just placebo effect. I actually think that they waste battery than save.
About battery saving apps:
Some might help save some of your battery, like Juice Defender, but about 100% of the stuff that an app does is something you can do for yourself.
Like dim the screen when you don't need 100% brightness, turn off data and use only GSM when you don't need to use data (and if 3G has better reception it might be worth staying on 3G though, at least in my world a better reception would mean a little bit better battery than if you changed to the network mode with worse reception) and when you don't need WiFi - you turn it off.
Using apps to kill other services and apps are not a good idea either, since some apps will only restart and restart and restart while the task killer will keep killing = both apps will drain your battery.
And by turning off both WiFi and data and the apps are well designed, they should not try to look for updates and such if there are no available internet connections.
And, by undervolting you gain more than using different apps and such and if you then learn how to set up your device in the best way for battery you will get longer battery life.
If I don't use my phone so often, I can get about 2 days with 3G/GSM + WiFi turned on all the time and mobile data connection turned on all the time. If I use it a lot I still get long enough battery time to make a full day, usually I need to charge my phone every 18-24 hours when I use it to check mail, send some texts and read news (and XDA, as the addicted person I am).
Now, I just hope that I haven't f*cked anything up - I'm just too lazy to read it through.

I bought myself a Nexus 7 about a month ago to satisfy the cravings for that Jellybean goodness. After trying several ICS/JB roms on my IncS over the past year, I decided to revert back to the CM7 Nightlies. Much to my surprise it's almost as if I forgot how blazingly fast Gingerbread was.
Given how i use my IncS on a daily basis, I seem to be averaging around 34-36 hours before it hits below 5%. It really only gets used for calls, texts and wifi tethering to my N7.

I used to average 30% battery drain per day with light use with stock GB rom and kernal, it has upped to approx 50% per day with stock ICS rom, with lOst profit's overclock kernal running at 1400 wake and 368 sleep. ( setcpu )
Not bad considering 40% increase in processor speed, but less than 20% increase in battery usage.

I tried latest cm7 nightlies and it wasn't smooth at all so I reverted back to jellybean cyan x
don't know why you are saying that GB was blazingly fast...
My battery is so bad on the jellybean ROM though!!
So 1 sacrifice for another :S

You must be doing it wrong, I'm on nightlies 146 with Tiamat kernel and this thing is like lightning. Battery lasts forever on moderate use about 36 - 40 hours. Lag is no where to be found.

keep in mind you have to give it a couple of hours , maybe even a day(depending on how much it has to do and your connection etc) Before the rom settles down after flashing. Then you can give your impression of it if it is laggy or not.
Hello everyone,
I wonder how much battery life you have on i9000 with stock battery (1500mHa) on cm 10.1 with semaphore kernel?
Asking, just because I can only get max. 12h of battery life with cm 10.1 20130218 rom and semaphore 2.9.10, smartassv2 and row. Wondering is this normal or my battery needs to be changed. Any suggestions to max battery life on i9000 would be appreciated too
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
The battery can last between 3hours and a week, depending on how you use your phone, so that's not a good question to ask.
If you feel that the battery is running out too quickly then download betterbatterystats and look for any apps using unusually high partial wakelocks or alarms and get rid of them. It only takes 1 rogue app to screw up your battery life.

I think he knows that.
12 hours uptime is not uncommon, especially when on 3g a lot. On wifi you should be able to get at least 20 h in my experience. If the battery is as old as your phone I suppose its capacity is not what it used to be, and you might consider replacing it with a sgs+ one f.i. - they come cheap nowaways!

That's in your experience, the way you use your phone.
Try playing NFS MW or something. You'll get about 2 hours on a gti9000. It varies far too much to try and tell people how many hours battery life they should be getting. Totally depends.

I use my phone for 3h wifi browsing, 30 min. music and 30 min gaming, but nothing intense. And with this usage I get 12h battery life. Flashed 2.3.5 stock rom. Still getting 18h max. So I think this comes to conclusion that my battery is old enough. That's why I asked for the battery life you get, because I didnt knew this is usual or not
My last for 2 days more or less depending on usage.
AW: [Q] Battery life
Guys i think its wrong to measure the battery life with how long your phone is working. i personally look at the screen on time it says more than just how long our device is working. I get always stats around 3h its unimportant if my Phone works 6h or 18h.

I have a little big problem here.
After installing CyanogenMod 10.1 20130626 on my Samsung Galaxy S3 (Vodafone. I used the international version of CM) my battery goes 1% down nearly every minute...
What causes this problem? (I dont use internet nor wifi nor bluetooth nor nfc, etc)

Hello guys I installes also CYanoGenM 10.1 night mode on my i9305 and faced the same problem with the battery drain , I tryed several tutorials to wipe batt stats to refresh etc etc .... faced the same problem even with seep mode on actived like 7-9 hours in night mode , the next day my phone got off and did not started unless it was conected on my charger
I am tired of AOSP/AOKP ROMS including CM.. everyone of them is Battery HUNGRY! AOSP/AOKP ROMS are capable of draining my zerolemon battery (7k mah) in max to max 7 hours screen on time in 2 days!
