[Q] SGS Battery Problem - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I installed a custom ROM for my first time, ( CM9 Stable ), and it works fine except I noticed baterry lasts 15h tops, instead of usal 40h...
Not sure if it's because I'm using it alot more now ( because it's new stuff and I like to explore ) or idk..
Android: 4.0.4
I9000XXJVT
Kernel: [email protected] #1
CM: 9.1.0-galaxysmtd
Here are my stats of 9h on battery and already @27%...
Screen 52%
Mediaserver - 24%
Google Play Music - 12%
Phone Inactivity - 3%
System android 3%
SO Android - 2%
Anyone knows what to do?
Thanks

It will be fine after a couple of recharge cycles I suppse.

Indeed.
Let us know after a couple of recharges.
P.S.: If isn't that the problem, make sure you don't have too many widgets/apps on your phone.

Indeed, it's now at 10h on battery on 80% instead of 23%
I also used RootUninstaller to remove DSPManager ( heard it had a battery drain bug ) and Apollo ( since I use Google Play Music now.. )
Since I already have the topic open, do you think I should change kernel?

You need to give more info then that.
What version of rom you using?
Which kernel/version you using?
What apps have you installed?
Do you use wifi/gps?
Did you use search before creating topic?
btw, you dont need to manually type [q] in your title. "[Q]" automatically gets added when you enable the "Is this a question" feature when creating topic.

i'v 144 Apps .. neither the widgets .. do you want me to name it all .. idk someone did that before right .. btw i don't use the Tab during am writing this comment but its still sucks the battery ..
and yes i use WIFI .
overcome tell us the solution for the battery life . but the solution didn't work with me
anyways thanks for ur reply .
btw i didn't type [q] i just thick the ' Is this a question ' ... tnx for your advice ..
I have actually noticed a decline in battery life since I flashed to Overcome. In the few days, before I flashed my tab, I could idle the tab for 10 hours and use like 2% battery. After flashing overcome, I cant get no where near that idle time, and I get just under 10% per hour full usage (games or video playback).
I'm using Overcome 1.6.1, no live backgrounds, and somewhere around 85 apps.

Strange, Ive never had a battery issue on any of the builds, even when overclocked. Its got to be something you have installed and running in background.
Go to settings>phone>about>battery use and it will tell you what using most battery. There is also programs like SystemPanel or Taskkiller etc.
If the [Q] wasn't capitalised then you must have tried to title your topic all i capitals so site reversed it, next time title topics properly

1st of all . the battery charges take so many time to charge full even though if its 95 its take around 15 to 20 mins to full charge .. and when i take the charge it give 99 even if its says the charge full ..
if my tab is off screen its also suck my battery life seriously .. i don't use live wallpaper i only use a normal image .. i don't know what is the problem .. am really thinking to replace overcome .. the prob is i like overcome even if it doesn't support arabic
any ideas
I never got any problems with the battery life in all Overcome roms.
Currently i use Overcome 1.6.1 with 2.1.4 kernel and battery life is good.
Idle overnight with WiFi enabled it uses 6%
Idle overnight with my dataplan it uses 3% and idle time is approx 12 hours.
In the idle time i have my Gmail synced, twitter, weather ect
In full use and full display light i can use my Tab for approx 6 hours.
I have to mention that my Tab is not Oc-ed

i just woke up the battery is full and its showing its full
what comes in my mind now
i turn off the tab to charge and see .. i off the tab i plug again the charger and guess what ... its still charge since 10mins
i'll do again wipe battery status and see .. this is the 4th time i'll do the wipe for battery .... i don't know what is the prob
so i wipe the battery but nothing happen .. so i just backup all the stuff ... going to re flash again
wipe data , wipe factory reset ...
flash again the rom and the kernel ...
.... i hate my tab cuz every week something new need to flash need to wipe need to reset
EDIT .. flashed again with wipe factory and factory rest and nothing happen after i flashed the kernel and the rom
My battery seems to drain fast too
I updated to Kernel 2.15 and Overcome 1.63 last night. It seems to drain 1% every 1.5-2 minutes when I use it with WIFI and 3G on. It drained 6% last night over 6 hours on standby mode (after I shortly pressed the power key).

I know there are some Gallery issues which drains your battery after using it.
But other then that i think some people expecting to much to fast to see some battery life progress on custom roms.
On the first fresh install i had also a drain.
You have to be aware that after a fresh rom install you have to let the battery settle for a couple off charges.
Yesterday i also took a complete reinstall by the guide provided in the Overcome thread.
I did this because i have some issues with FC's on receiving gmails.
After that fresh install and restoring my apps ect.
I went playing with it, first i did 2 hours of surfing over wifi.
Later playing Black Pegasus Modern Combat for 3 hours.
I started of with 67% battery and didn't have the battery calibrated
So after 5 hours of heavy use the Galaxy Tab battery was empty.
This morning i calibrated the battery.
And after a full cycle charge in 2 hours i didn't touch my Tab at all.
After 4 hours i still have 97% battery left.
It is common that when you take your from the charger it instantly drops to 99% (No worry)
So 2% lost in 4 hours in idle standby with 3g on and syncing XDA app every 15min, Twitter every 5 min, email every 30min, Gmail (Push), weather every hour.
I think it's battery life is great.
Beware the screen of our Tab's are using a great deal of battery life.
Even 50% brightness sucks your battery empty.
I have it set on 30% which is good for use in the evening.
Daytime and sunlight it sucks at 30% but since i never use my Tab outside it will work for me.
Hello!
I cant imagine that the battery is draining because of overcome rom or kernel. Since i flashed it my battery life is suprisingly good, even when overclocked!

Same here...
I know there is a Gallary 3d issue when using it your battery is draining.
Alterbridge is working on that.
If people followed the flash and battery calibrate guide Overcome should have a nice battery life.
I don't know what apps people are using at the moment but it could be an app which is poorly written.
guys im flashing overcome even before the guide posted ...
and about the live wallpaper .. i don't use it .. because i use a honeycomb theme
and about the calibrate of the battery i already did it many times from overcome guide or even from the apps in market .. i knw wat am doing .. i never get on in something that i don't know wat exactly means ...

Xperia t JB Battery Life

Hi. I've updated my xperia t to Sony's official JB 4.1.2 9.1.A.0.489 firm.
I'm noticing that the battery life is no as good as expected. If I charge it up to 100%, and leave it locked all night, in the morning it has 80% , sometimes 75%. Some days, i can let it locked for 6 hours, and it's still in 100% ( strange at all). Of you look at the screenshots, it looks like it's always awake!
I've also tried with Battery Guru app, but I feel like it wastes more than it saves.
A friend has a Samsung galaxy ace ( i know, i cannot compare) and the battery literally doesn't go down if he doesn't use it.
Thank's guys.
P.S: Any idea about 9.1.A.1.138 firm? Changelog? availability?
Odp: Xperia t JB Battery Life
Battery problem is already known for this .489 FW. It's just a very first public release of JB, don't expect it will be completely bug-free. We just have to wait for the next releases with fixed this and that so the battery life would be correct again.
I have the same problems like you but I got used to them. For the first few days I was really pissed off and thought about flashing back ICS .195 (which had incredible battery life) but number of the advantages of having JB on my phone was the main factor of not going back to ICS.
That happened to me also lost more than 15% during sleep.
I disabled google search, facebook, android wakeup, etc and turned off auto sync and i lost 1.3% per hour.
In ics, i'm losing less than 1% per hour. So this is pretty decent to me. I'm still getting 3 hours of screen time.

I have everything possible running on my phone but don't know why the battery isn't lasting.
How?

You say that yoy've disabled android wakeup.. how do i do it??? , also in better battery stats, I see Alarm Manager and another alarmManager ( this second apparently from Sony) , with 811 and 2686 YES, 2686 wakeups each. Any idea? what are they about?

The Sony Alarm is Fast Dormancy
The other one is most likely the combined total of a number of apps - to see them you need to be rooted, then you can access "Alarms" from the dropdown menu.
How do I use:
adb shell dumpsys alarm > AlarmDump.txt
What app..cant find anywhere how to do this?
I have a V but generally same things apply.
I think there are simply too many items switched on that would not allow the phone to fall into deep sleep.
Also, a battery usage of 1.3 % / h when idle would hint to that.
I have around 3000 wakelocks, too, but under normal day usage and not during sleep. During sleep there a few only, wakelock time over night is 0 %, and the phone uses close to no battery. Straight segment is the night time usage.
Compare with the pic from above, that phone was used lesser than mine.

Request for P880 developers.

Hi!
We've got some kernels improving efficiency/performance of our 4X. I have a request for our dear developers: can you create a kernel improving lenght of battery life? I (and many of LG Optimus P880 users) think baterry life is a weak point of Optimus 4X, so it will be really helpful if you create such kernel. What do you think about it?
Regards, Y2J
- Sorry for my bad English -
Battery is something all devs consider,some are already including fixes for baseband wakelock. To get more juice what you really need is to restrict the number of cores to [email protected], keep your brightness lower and undervolt by 25 millivolts if your kernel supports it. All phones of this calibre are battery hungry, I'm afraid you must get used to that and use whatever our few devs make available to help

Can you tell me what kernel resolve baseband wakelock? I have a huge problem with that..
its not the kernel or the mod, that drains your battery.
its the installed apps.
for example: if you have skype, facebook and google search installed, the battery lasts half as long as without these apps.
especially skype is the devil, because it does not have push mode, so your phone will never go to deep sleep mode when skype is running.
google search is also a big battery drainer, same goes for facebook with its 35 services and processes always running.
deinstall/freeze these apps, and use icq, facebook chat and skype with "im+ pro", which _has_ push notifications.
my battery always lasts at least 3 days with normal use, and i am on stock 20a.
the only thing i do is using a taskmanager and kill all tasks i dont want running to free up memory (i use advanced task killer free for that, it memorizes the tasks it should kill).
when i had skype and google search installed, i sometimes had this weird battery drain, too, that sucked my battery empty in some hours.
after i froze these apps some month ago, i never had this again and everything is running smooth.

My battery is not drained. I am power user, so my battery lifes about 12h. A lot of useless services and stuff from CM has been frozen by me. I just think that energy-saving kernel should be created cause not all of 4X users are gamers. I (and they) will be very happy if our LGs can be used some hours longer. I don't use Facebook or Skype apps. I have less than ten apps from Google Play installed. There aren't battery-draining apps because I have checked them. Sorry for my bad English.

I get what you're saying, but custom kernels generally provide the options for either performance or battery life. Configure your kernel based on your needs. The only way battery life is gonna improve more than the current tweaks allow is something completely built from scratch with battery life in mind from start to finish. As far as I know since dexter left only kholk is capable of it, most kernels here are just a stock base with some good addons. Just give it time and see what comes

Well like me, 19mins out of an hour and a half is quite big, I charge my phone overnight but even when I have left it I have only lost 3%, I only recently starting investigation of the wakelock on my phone, if I am able to replicate the drain somehow I will share as I have had peculiar drain, only once ever though

For all of you, that have huge battery drain over night (20-30%), i might have solution that helped at least 10 users. It happened to me shortly after flash to v20a. All you need to do is to factory reset phone and in "Software update" software decline terms and conditions of LG update service.
After this procedure I have 1-3% drain per night (8 hours). By Wakelock Detector my phone have only 10-15 min longer awake time than onScreen time.
Why did you have battery drain,what was the cause? Not everybody suffers from baseband wakelock..
Wait for kholk's 3.4 beta kernel, You'll get Your battery improvement
Do you think he will solve baseband wakelock? Where can I see the development of his kernel so i know when it comes?

How many baseband wakelocks do you have?
It depends..Sometime very little and sometime over 80% during the night! Last night it was only 1% but the night before it was 83%! It doesnt make any sense,it comes and goes randomly..And the settings are always the same(over night no wifi no 3g)

[Q] Help with huge battery drain on usage [TRIED EVERYTHING]

Hello guys, sorry for my bad english, but I'm not American. Well, my question is:
I bought from a guy a Galaxy S I900b, Brazilian model with digital TV. Came with stock 2.3. As I had already read enough before, upgraded to JWB Saurom with semaphore kernel, which I think is the default for this rom. Well, the phone had very poor battery life, evn on idle. Then upgraded to 10.2 CM. I saw that had some wakelocks, and with BBS and the help here, I used the Scan Media Root and my problems are gone in iddle. So, my phone goes into deep sleep and today during my sleep, only lost 3% battery, 3% battery drain on idle during about 5-6 hours it very good to me. But during use, it ends up very fast, and with GSAM and standard monitor of the android, I saw that after the screen, the Android system was what had higher %% battery. So what could it be ? The battery life is ok, checked on info, and its condition is 'good'. I use to Greenify, and close almost every game\app, so running is just grenify and ram manager pro.
So the prob just could be a app or the 'android system' ? Or even hardware ?
I dont have much time now, so any info or screenshot you want, I can provide later
Thanks
What about your connections? Do you have 3G/wifi enabled at all times?
calibrate....maybe useless, but u can try....but somehow, try bigger mAh battery, maybe.....n maybe .... it will help.
juz charge it with screen turn on till it full, n waste it to 0% till it shut down, turn it on n charge it with screen on till it full again, u ll be fine
if problem occur again, keep an eye for sneaky app that run at background (email...exchange etc) n juz delete some sys app that u dont use using titanium.
if it still occur again, wait for arc reactor battery....

I've deleted the batterystats.bin and used until 0%, so charged while off, but nothing :C
It's true that the battery needs to 'learn' ? Like, a few charges and discharges and could estabilize ?
I'll take a few screenshots right now
Callibration of you battery eg: Wipe battery stats is onluy helpfull when you get weird battery stats.
If you are on any CyanogenMod ROM you have to get used to the higher ammount of battery use by the phone. The application Greenify can help a lot by hibernating the huge battery suckers like facebook and google maps.
Some tips:
- use 2G instead of 3G
- Turn WIFI off when you're outside the house or leaving for some time
- Turn GPS/Bluetooth on only when you're about to use it
- Dont use taskkillers (they are used to free up ram but killing apps makes android restarts them and this consumes extra juice)
- Put brightness on Auto
- Use a dark theme and background/lockscreenwallpaper
- Dont recharge your phone when below 5% this can damage the battery
- A new battery needs to "Get used to" the life of being a battery xD After a few recharging cycles it will work like normal
Here some screenshots, if need more, just ask
Note: Was with 14%batt, rebooted and drops to 11-10%

i am using greenify on almost everything.
used to use ram manager, but now i've disable it.
brightness is on low
I really dunno what 2 do ... almost 1 week with it and this insane drain, everyone says that plays or browser on wifi and get almost 10 hours... my dream this happen to me lol
Remember that this is just on use, on idle it use virtually nothing, like I said, almost 3% on sleep, but is just I start use with app or browser and its gone
Screens are from a too short period of useage. Use it from fully charged, and make some new screenies This can help futher
Well i got problems with my battery too so im planning to buy a new one because this one cant even handle 3-4 hours when im doing something like playing games,or listening music...Just buy new battery with more mAh and dont get bother with this :laugh:

I was thinking in change my kernel, currently I'm using semaphore 3.0 with CM10.2, is Latrop or Mackay better in battery life ?
I think its my last shot ... I'll provide a new battery next week, but i've heard some people with batt probs that even with new batt the problem persists :crying:

It looks like wifi and 3G have been kept on for most/all of the time. Turning those off while you're not using them may significantly increase battery life.
Also, related to kernels, personally I've found Mackay to be a bit better in terms of battery.
Also it looks like your screen's pretty bright if 61% of the battery usage is because of it. So if you don't need it so bright turning the brightness down may help.
Start by doing those, and see how your battery life fares first- if not much changes, then it may help getting a bettery battery/changing rom even.

So, like i said, in this 2 hours after charge, i've used opera mini with wifi, I dont use 3g. Right now the battery is less than 10%... it's strange since have people telling that can use almost 5 hours wifi and the battery is > 50%
And the brightness is at lowest bright :\
The problem could be some corrupted file ? I have the options:
- format EVERYTHING, and dont use titanium backup, since somthing can be corrupted.
- change my kernel to Mackay
- change my room back to SAUROM 2.3.6 adn semaphore kernel
I'm very sad cuz I have a very old Nokia E5 that can be on with wifi almost or more than 10hours ... and this phone can barely hold 5hour
What u suggest me to do ?

How long have you been using the rom? Roms take time to calibrate the battery and this is through charge/discharge cycles.
Alternatively, go into Performance settings and change the profile to powersave/conservative (it differs from rom to rom). Lock the min CPU frequency to 200mHz- apparently this helps.
Again, this would change depending on your kernel.
And if you have a three year old battery like mine, best not to expect miracles...

Using bout 2 days ... but i didnt knew about ' calibrate '. Good to know that
Now i've formated everything and will put a stock 2.3 and see in a couple of days the perfomance ... if gets better, I put the saurom 2.3.6 and be with it, cuz 2.3.6 on brazilian model allow to use digital tv, and 2.3 everyone says is economic.
I'll get this updated if my situation changes, if not, will buy a new battery
Thanks for all your help
Note: How long your batt last ? With high\low usage

What my battery last longer?

Hi guys!
I'm using latest stock rom JWB and Mercury Kernel 1.4 on my SGS.
2 days ago i removed some apk's from system/app on my i9000 galaxy s , like: ttsservice , tts , fbaccount , maps , samsung app store.
Before that my battery stayed with me like 10hours with my normal use, and dead! But now after 40hours it's on 70% WTF!?!?!?! , did those notuseful apps ( excepts maps ) consume so much battery? OMG.
CHEEERS
Could you make a list of what apps you removed?
Did you simply remove them with root explorer?
Well, you just simply remove Google Maps from Stock gingerbread and your battery will last 3-4 days in standby. yes use root-explorer.
Don`t underestimate the permanent background syncing some apps do ...
maps and fbaccount are some apps which consumes much battery ...

updated to JW7 (europe) and Mercury 1.4 , much smoother. to bad those apps are not optimised for gingerbread(fb and more), this stock rom with a good kernel runs like hell! i dont understand why this function ( 4-5 battery life in standby ) can not be implemented in CM 9-10-11 for the i9000, they to dont include mapa but there the battery dies in 1 day MAXIMUM.
I guess maybe, the stock rom uses some cpu drivers that can keep the phone in low power mode for so long time, without maps app. and still accepting phone calls when needed.
Hmhh i think that CM has its reason not to use /include mapa or maybe we should ask pawitp ,why not inluding ...

No.. I did not understand me.
I mean a STOCK ROM , with maps removed and 2G active can stay in standby 4-5 days. I Mean it.
Now Cm 7-9-10-11 in 24hrs with 2 G is dead and CM dont have maps. That is my idea.....
Yes sorry, i read too fast ,sorry...
You`re right i don`t know maybe using other governor, kernel-version etc. for better performance ...
