How can I refresh my battery reading. Sometimes, it doesn't move and suddenly decrease 5-10%. And sometimes, it decrease 10%and after reboot it increases again. Is there any app to solve this?

Something else is killing your battery, that's just telling you the % of it while the phone is turned on. Download spare parts and see what it is.... as far as collins batt tweak I used 768mhz and get 90+ hours
I have spare parts...what kinds of things should I be looking for

Anything showing a high % under "partial wake usage?"
Also, I use "Dimmer" form the market to keep my screen brightness down. I set it all the way down (using quick settings shortcut) for when I am inside and when I go outside or into a bright room I have it set to increase to 25% when I toggle the dimmer shortcut on my home screen. I thought the auto-brightness was making it higher than it needs to be in most cases.
Everything seems low under partial wake usage...

Seems like many others are reporting bad battery loss from CM6 -- looks like it has something to do with the display...it might not be properly "sleeping" even if the screen is off. Don't know if there's a fix yet but that other thread at least has some useful information in it.
I have been using TheMyth Basic rom and getting very low battery backup. even with data mode off and underclocked at min122-max480 mhz, the phone gives just 3 hours of music playback. Is the battery faulty or poorly calibrated? Help!!
Screenshot is when i used Whatsapp for almost 2 hours...n it was almost low :/

Check using CPU Spy to see if you even have deep sleep when idle (not doing anything of course)

Try this...
1. Reduce your Screen Brightness.
2. Wipe battery status through CWM.
3. Uninstall any bloatware.
4. Use 2G (GSM Only) networks.
5. Flash another rom(at last...).
Then your average batterylife will increase.

Battery calibration is a myth.
Will do nothing other then wipe battery stats and make a new one.
It can be done by charging the phone till 100% and disconnect it from charger

Instal good battery monitor like gsam etc. You will be able to see what is draining your battery. Also do not use full brightness all the time.
P.S. What is fast for you? Can your battery stand a day?

Its like when i leave my phone for about 2 hr. The battery drops from 70-50% on wifi. And i used to be able the last the whole day with 3g on and my phone is only 2 weeks old.

well i agree with the battery saver is a myth statement... I see you have used battery very bad way and now battery has depleted its life span. So still battery is on good side... Just try to do one charge cycle and close all unwanted apps and processes/features so it will conserve battery that way you can keep your battery safe or if you are really unsatisfied try this http://www.mugenpoweronline.com/zas...tid=5&sortby=sortid&orderby=desc&type=carrier
Good luck!
Hit thanks if i helped :good:
yes, battery calibration is a myth, so you must try install a fresh rom (try light by somin, its very battery friendly), use your brightness always low, and your wifi always off when you dont need it. you will see that your battery (if its not broken) will last for at least 2 days (depending on your phone usage)
and the best "calibration" is to drain your device to 0% (it will shutdown) and then charge it to 100% without using during charging. Do this 2 or 3 times and your battery will be very well.
this http://www.mugenpoweronline.com/zaspx/product_details.aspx?file=pr&productno=1640&PageNo=4&ccatno=5&csubcatid=5&sortby=sortid&orderby=desc&type=carrier is bullsh**
If you're rooted you should also download DU Battery Saver PRO and tick the option "low cpu frwquency while screen off'. Just that little option changed my phone's whole life style It really does work so give it a try, you won't be dissapointed.
and yes battery calibration is a myth and doesn absolutely nothing which may help your battery life (i know from 1000s of personal experiances with the calibration thing )

Ouch. Not here. Getting 20+ hours on each charge. Have you rebooted? Sometimes a reboot helps clear up memory just like on a PC. Have you installed anything recently before the issues started?
Yes I have rebooted. Have not installed anything outside of playstore apps..hmmm I did install adobe flashplayer??

Haven't had problems with screen freezing, but I was getting some pretty subpar battery life.
It may be counter-intuitive but my battery life has Drastically improved by turning off power saver. I don't know if the throttle up/down on cpu and brightness is too aggressive and does more harm than good or what but this was the major offender for me. My battery went from ~10 hours to ~20+ on normal usage.
Some other things I did that netted a gain before turning off power saver.
Change Settings/Wifi/Advanced/Keep Wifi on During Sleep from always to only when plugged in.
Freeze app/task for S-Search
Freeze S-Voice
Turn off settings / controls / motions
Turn off settings / controls / air gesture
Turn off settings / controls/ smartscreen
Hey thanks for all the info. Will try all that u suggested

I bet that you had screen on for like 3,5h while that graph was taken.
Normal thing it is taking that much
Sent from my SGS Adv. using xda-developers app.
Well, it is screen, i dont see anything wrong with the usage, actually i think its kinda good usage for the screen, but you have to tell us the screen use time, and the brightness, otherwise its looking fine with me.
thanks friends ...screen usage is 3h 48min and i have brightness low ...but i think screen 70-80% is too much ...or is normal???

You are clearly not using heavy usage apps, like facebook, whats app, viber, twitter, and so on, apps with internet usage drain more battery, browsing internet will drain battery faster, so i you used ONLY screen you will end up only 70% on screen, but with more apps to drain you'll drain the battery faster and you'll find screen usage lower, however i still find the battery graph normal.
You may be right ...thanks :good:
