Did you try a clean install?(full wipe-data+cache+dalvik)
And about the battery, try downloading "BatteryCalibration"(it's on google play) and follow the instructions.

Not really, the only thing i can think of is you could go back to RC4, since there aren't that many changes.

The Thing is the 2nd Problem was still in RC4 for me I forget to say that sorry , mh then I have to shut the phone down if i need to restart or boot to Recovery I untill the next release maybe fix it for me.

Regarding battery drain you could try another kernel "CastagnaIT Kernel v6.7 Kernel", I've been testing this one and It's really smooth and fast responsive, take a look of his thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1827428. :good: btw Ivendor and Arco's are working at the moment to get a daily functional Kernel 3.0 so we're waiting it.

I don't remember such problems with RC5, I am sure that I could boot in to recovery / reboot normally. Using PA RC6 at the moment, so I can't confirm. For me the drain is a bit over 1% per hour, without data/wifi.
You get 23h of battery life with or without data/wifi on?

with Wifi on , i don't shut it down if i go away but i think this can be some thing that drains my battery on the go if it trys to connect to open wifis on the go or scan for them all the day...
another thing is i have to constantly use 2g network because i'am using prepaid card (german E-Plus) and in my home village we don't have good 3g network and i have only very low signal strengh if i'am on automatic or 3g Mode. don't know if 2g can drain more energy in certain situations.

2G should use less battery than 3G, but with all the ICS roms we have are apparently suffering some level of a 3G-drain issue. I personally use 3G only when needed so I don't know that for sure.
Data + wifi on a day is what you'll get, no more.

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).

The prob is that the overcome kernel not the rom cuz i tried evry rom with the same kernep and the battery still ****e upd . Thinking for modaco kernel

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 ...

[Q] MIUI ROM doesnt go to sleep!!

Hey All,
My Milestone running MIUI 1.6.4 doesnt go to sleep when I turn the screen off. This is leading to poor dormant battery life. The battery drops by about 10 percent for every 1 hr, when the phone is not in use(ironic, cos when the device is actively used, MIUI seems to have the best battery life). I checked the built in battery usage chart, and the thread that keeps the device awake is Android System itself. Is this a known issue? and are there any solutions available?
Had same problem!
Had exactly same problem a couple of months back and posted question here but no response.
I was able to initiate deep sleep but had to do various things such as reboot time after time until successful, open up a variety of apps, use a task killer, etc., to try and resolve problem.
I was using CM 6.0 initially and even updated to the latest update of that build by wiping everything but all to no avail. I was beginning to think that it was a hardware problem when I flashed an entirely different rom - MIUI 1.2.25 and hey presto problem resolved.
I suggest that you may have to do likewise and try another rom entirely. BTW the battery life of 1.2.25 is very good indeed. I also recommend using CPU Spy found in the market and/or CPU Stats found in the Themes/Apps section of this forum to monitor deep sleep status.
Hope this helps

[Q] [i9000] Team ICSSGS RC3.1 - Battery Life

Hello everyone!
I've installed few days ago the onecosmic's ROM RC3.1, beatiful, perfect, smooth bla bla.
The problem is: i'm seeing so many post of people saying that with full charge, phone can stay alive for an average of 1 day- 1 day and an half (24-36h) with a normal use.
My phone can last 13-14h staying most of the time in standby and it's the 5th cycle so should be "stabilized" now. 1st cycle was awful, 8h (didn't expect anything else), then things got better but i've reached this cap of 14h.
I've tried Fugu kernel at first but i didn't get much improvement so i switched to paul kernel and changed modem too (jvk->jvt).
Still can't reach the dreamed 24-36h, i mean, i don't care about having 2 days of battery life, i would like to use the phone without having to charge it in the middle of the day.
btw nstools installed and set Deep Idle on, which seems to works just fine for me with the paul kernel.
(can't post outside link -.-)
nstools stats:
h*tp://i44.tinypic.com/6duvzb.png
does these stats means it's working?
i'll post also CPUspy stats:
h*tp://i43.tinypic.com/35052qf.png
is it everything ok here?
On standby there's no battery drain effect now, but when i'm using it, i get 1% down every 1-2 min.
What do you guys suggest? do i need to try other kernels/modems? shoud i try to flash again?
p.s. on 2.3.5 stock i used to have 24-36h but there's no way i'm going back to GB, i love ICS.
I used to have 24h of battery life, but I don't know what happened, after a week or so now my phone is draining 20% every hour, dead by noon...
Tried NStools with undervolt, and it didn't change anything.
It's now an useless piece of junk... this is retarded, either i will try reinstalling ICS or im going back to GB.

maybe your problem is caused by an app, or more than one, which are using push notification, you sould try uninstalling some...
Tried undervolt too, i got maybe an hour more.
Update: i just flashed again with RC3,1 and paul kernel. Situation seems a little better, gonna update again after few battery cycles.
What thing is in the battery status menu?
If it is media server: settings-->apps-->all--> Mediastorage-->force stop(dont wipe data)

sure! with the new paul kernel the battery life is better! amd now i'm trying the last glitch...my phone seems to work better...!i will hope to have also a good battery life without hard drain (with didle support maybe it's possible!)
actually, there was a lot of "Android OS" usage, maybe something went wrong from the beginning, the phone wasn't going to deep sleep state when put on stan-by and use more cpu than necessary when active, that must have been the main issue.
As i said, installed RC3.1 again this morning now everything is gooood
Lots of facebook, whatsapp, camera and 1 call, still have 67%. When put on standby battery almost doens't drop at all (checked on battery graph).
I think it's solved
I've the same problem. my battery life sucks...
Now my question. Where can I find/download the paul kernel? I#ll re-flash it too .
And my second question, do the "devil - der teufel" kernel do a great job too?

dunno about devil kernel, i read that for someone is even better than paul and it solves also "green screen" issue that appear when you lock the phone. I'm happy with this config so i won't touch it until RC4
I confirm that ,now, when my phone is in stand-by, battery usage is almost 0.
btw paul's kernel can be found here:
h*tps://w*w.dropbox.com/s/ts8j2o7wuklq9zg
(sorry about the "*" in the url but it won't let me post link 'til i get 10 post -.-)
is also in the first post of the Team ICSSGS rom btw
I have flashed RC3.1 yesterday, it lasted for 8 hours. I was using it heavily to check all the features, syncing the contacts etc. I have drained the battery fully now. Will charge it upto 100% and see how long it last now with normal usage.

Battery Drain
hello everyone - I have been searching a lot abou this i9000 battery drain on ICS. I am using ICS and Devil karnel and battery lasts for around 11-12hrs. My usage is pretty normal. I dont use phone for most of the time but still it reaches to 12hrs mark. If I check battery stats then Android OS and Display (brightness is very low) are consuming most of the battery.
Please let me know if there are any ROM Tweeks or any other way to increase battery time. Or I will have to go back to GB because I hate charing battery two times a day.
Thank you.

Team ICSSGS RC4 problems, looking for solutions

I´ve noticed a few bugs, problems in this new version of ICS. If anyone knows how to solve them I would appreciate your advice
So, here is what´s bugging me:
1. Screen sometimes go greenish for a second or two when there is a lot of apps running and when I quickly turn off and turn on the screen (it happens when the screen goes on, that moment)
2. Overclocking seems very unstable!! ..when I OC my phone (with NStools) and do some things..after a while, it freezes and reboots. On RC3.1 version I could overclock to 1.46GHz and play games and it was very stable!
(I think they changed voltage and because of that it´s unstable, but I´m not sure)
3. When system reboots (after crash), it reboots in clock work mode -.-" ..why can´t it reboot normally, into system?
4. It´s not really a problem but, does anyone know how to remove unnecessary home screens or add them back? Is it possible?
5. .apk files can´t be sent trough bluetooth .. (message: This Bluetooth device or computer cannot process files of this type. )
Other than that I would say this version is almost perfect, flash works in browser, effects in camera, USB mass storage ..works very well.
I was on Doc´s ICS teamhackungs based rom before this one (and after RC3.1 )..and I noticed that battery life was terrible even with juice saver apps running.
I hope this one is better.
Actually RC4 has been pulled because of a Wifi issue
I flashed it last night before it was pulled, I flashed over Onecosmics 2.11 no wipe, and my wifi its working normal.

It is a great rom, I hope they can fix those minor issues.
Battery life for me has been just OK on 2.11, I have to give RC4 the 3 charge cycles before any judgement.
I've just noticed that battery life was reduced constantly in last 3 days, now battery doesn't last 12 hours, but it's the first time that happens!

Yes, so did I ..just before they pulled I downloaded the rom...I was on Doc´s ICS..but I flashed with Odin JVT 2.3.5. GB ..rooted with CF-root and then in CWM flashed RC4 ..my wi-fi was having problems but when I updated WiFix manager it was ok then.
Yea, I couldn´t agree more, if they fix those issues it could be it..the final version (without any bugs). Lets hope they do it soon so we don´t have to wait too long
btw. I was thinking, could we solve these or at least some this issues by flashing another kernel??
@Giuku :I´ve noticed that too..even though I´m not OC now it still drains a lot..or my battery become weak (It´s 1year old) . But that is not without a reason..I did put her to her limits (and my phone) by playing games so much that my smartphone reached max temperature of 60°C and then cooling it in 1min to 30°C and less.

[STOCKICS][NEW BL NEW LAYOUT][CWM 6] Link to Stefans V28G 2nd Gen Excellent ROM

I am using this ROM at the moment as daily driver.
[STOCKICS][NEW BL NEW LAYOUT][CWM 6] Link to Stefans V28G 2nd Gen Excellent ROM
But as we all know the thread is now closed, and we cannot discuss this Good (nearly) Bugless ICS ROM by Stefan. The thread is going down rapidly and very soon people may ignore it. But I think this NVFLASH rom is not ignorable.
Of course there is no improvement is available from him after he left, but I thought we can share this link with other members who may wanna try this V28G 2nd Gen NVFlash Rom and discuss about it. May be some patches by other devs will make it more practically useable.
One mote useful link by his is here ... [Offering] CWM 6 recovery for Stock ICS with new bootloader [new: v28G based] could be useful for some.
NOTE: On this rom I am using Homero2's RIL1109 V28G MOD. Working good.
Requesting all to discuss this rom.
Moderators, please advice if this post can stay as per the rules, as the main rom thread is closed.
I use the rom since it was out, and it is very good for me. BUT my standby battery consumption is too high (10% in 8h without wifi, data connection etc). Except this, it's a great ICS feeling.

Its really a good rom.
Do you mean your battery comes down from 100% to 10% (90% drain) in 8 hours? Strange. Mine works great. I get only 30% drain in 8 hours overnight with all automatically switch off by SMART PROFILE (Free) app. My device goes on silent profile mode, switches off wifi, bt, gps, data at 11:45PM and again comes back General Profile mode in the morning at 7:30AM without switching on anything. I switch on things only when necessary. I really get good sleep without any disturbance This app works perfectly since a year on my all roms and gives 100% perfect result and battery lasts longer. 100% is enough for me for whole day (24+ hours). Yes I do voice calls around an hour in a day, other than some moderate use of music, video, camera, etc.
Yes I also have fixed habit of Advanced Task Killer (Free) which kills background apps every 30 minutes in CRAZY mode for all 24 hours a day and keeps saving hell lot of a battery.
These two apps are first thing I do to any rom. Try this and feedback. I dont need to blame roms when I have some tweaks like above to try!
EDIT: Screenshot added with exact 50% juice remaining after 14 hours. forgot to mention I use Stereo BT (Sony MW600) most of the time connected to device.
This is better suited in the General section, since there won't be any real development going on, just discussions of a "dead unsupported" ROM.

I am not sure, but other devs are working on mods and patches thats why posted here. But as you said it, it should go to general section.
Moderators please move this post to General Section
EDIT: An opinion why this post should stay here in this comment.

It consumes 10%, from 100 to 90% in 8h. With GB it was 2-4%.

Same to me! 10% in 8h without wifi, 2g-3g, and any battery drainer on! So... I've tried topo's ics rom and on topo's rom i had more battery consumption than stefans...
Thx stefans for this great rebuild... Devs here saves our phones. LG knows how to lose costumers!!!

Kind of agree, but I'm this tread deserves attention even though Stefan left xda. I mean, the provided files by Stefan are being used as baserom for follow ups nd roms should be posted in dev section, unless it's a rom eg changed boot animation and ring tones I think, keep this alive, what Stefan did with 28e/g are what made us be where we are, running difference ics leaks.. So, to hail Stefan I think roms based on 28e/g with minor changes should be linked here why criticise Stefan when we have hundreds or thousands off topic meaningless post every day which don't gets erased

I used this rom for a couple of days. No major bug. But for me, it was too laggy. So back to MIUI GB.
However, it seems like i am the only one with this issue. Sometimes i was pressing a button and the phone just froze for 30s or more .... Not practical as a daily driver. It was driving me nuts !

You shure you don't have any app installed that is SUCKING the battery BIG TIME when it's in standby???
I have the same 2nd Gen rom from steffan, since the day it was released by him, and my p990 is clean as new (zero programs installed after flashing (i lie, i was forgetting that i installed Endomondo)), and my battery barelly gets drained during night (generally 2-4% max), and using the mobile lightly (like 5 or 6, five minutes calls per day, and turning data and 3g on two or three times a day to check my email, and take a look here @ xda to see if there's any news that is worth it) i get generally 2 days (more accuratelly, 42 to 46 hours) with a full charge...
Something in your phone should be draining the battery, as from my experience with the rom, it his the best rom i ever have used in battery life...
P.S: I forget to mention, i'm also using v28g baseband from stefan.
I was in this ROM from beginning until I found topo ROM's same. battery has always been bad for me...nothing about the ROM but there is something which is sucking the juice so badly....
Waiting for Topo new SP3 which he is testing.
But for these small things I am happy with this

Yes, sync is off and the only app running in background is WhatsApp.
Btw I found an other crazy issue in the V28G firmware:
Sometimes (when I use the phone) the screen suddenly gets darker and has dark spots. I already had this problem a few times under V28G. The first time I thought my phone would be defect, but the issue disappears when you lock and then unlock your phone.
Here's a photo of that:
Does anyone already had the same crazy issue?
I've had that crazy issue, yes.

Flix123, i have exactly same thing in mine. But it's not something i noticed only on ICS, i already noticed this problem 4 or 5 months ago (during that time i was using Temasek's rom) so i think this is something related to the phone itself due to aging or something like that... (mine is really getting old now, i bought it on may 2011....)
