Would like to ask any and all JB rom users to post any and all usage with screen shots, using Battery saver or no battery saver and witch Rom you mighty be using....just basically a referance to see what Roms are using the most batt and if you are using a batt saver, compared to the ICS roms with their usage on batt performance....
Currently I'm running the PacMan version 1214 Jelly Bean on my Vivid, the battery life actually is a lot better than it was when I was running the stock att rom. Usually under light usage (some Facebook, Amazon MP3, about 200 texts), I had enough juice to last about 19 hours before I needed to charge. I don't use battery saver or anything like that, I'd post a screenshot of my battery stats, but for some reason the stats aren't available. I'll tinker with it a little and see if I can get a screenshot of it.
Don't have pictures for ya, but 12–14 hours with normal usage. 4 hours plus screen on time. It's worse than wcx, but better than stock.

Not too bad, it did pretty good with ICS too.

My battery seems to last the same, during normal usage, as ICS maybe an hour shorter, but it isn't very far from when I was using ICS
ROM
JB - Paranoid Android released on 12-20
ICS- Virtuous Inquisition
JB
The only thing that I have noticed is that the charging is really slow, approximiatly 1.5 % per hour when the phone is on standby. Powered off it jumps to 30-50% per hour. However with me being IT support I need to have my phone on as a rule.
ICS- charge in standby 20% approximately.
other notes.
during continous usage JB lasts a little longer, thus by comparison in standby it doesn't last as long.
Sorry that i dont have screen shots available, however there are the stats, if you have questions I am of course here to help.
One Power Guard. never use these type of apps but I decided to try it since battery didnt last as long with JB and i saw results
Was at work but used mobile data a bit made calls & texts and usually doesnt last this long i wou8ld have to charge when i got home

when DC v2.08.1 came out i downloaded it just like all the other DC ROMS prior. At first i noticed some improvements in battery and performance, but after a few days of using it i decided to check what has been using the battery in settings.. this is what i came across

crazy thing is i hadn't used the camera that day... i monitored it for the next few days and still no matter what i do on the phone throughout the day, it always shows these same stats.. the great thing about all this is my battery would last past 24 hours no matter what i did on the phone..
i ended up flashing DC v2.09.1 (cause im a flashaholic) and couldn't get the same results.. well i decided to nandroid back to 2.08.1 but i lost the battery performance i was getting before... when i checked whats been using the battery, it would show normal things that i've used and cell standby and phone idle would be back to about 40% each... so i decided to wipe and reflash DC v2.08.1.. low and behold, after about 3 days, its back to 96% camera, 2% cell standby, and 2% phone idle.
my question is does anyone know how, or why this is happening?? im loving how long my battery last and the speed of my phone because of this.. i just wanna make sure it stays like this.. or maybe how to make this happen on other ROMs cause im sure im gonna flash another one again soon...
(oh and by the way, im not missing any phone calls, text messages, or emails.. everything is working perfectly)
It happened to me a few times while on dc, rebooting would set it back to normal.
I read around here somewhere that ir wasit was a sense bug..i forget where...
I don't have any useful information sadly.

rebooting doesnt change anything for me (which is a good thing)..
Now that you mention it, I had the same experience, yet didn't realize it at the time, being new to rooting/roms/etc...i have lately been using stock 2.1 rooted without updating..and really noticed the difference in battery life. Got me thinkin' now.
Hello there guys,
I'm wondering what roms/launchers etc you are running, what widgets, what your average use of your phone is and how long the battery lasts with all of the junk that you are using.
Ofcourse, this topic will also serve the purpose as to help people with tweaks, ideas for powersaving etc.
I'll start off with my Optimus 2X Speed running on a stock ROM.
I'm using LauncherPro, just because it looked nice.
I've got a blackish sort of background with just the most needed apps on it, such as the games I frequently play, a battery widget, camera etc. Not using the weather gadget btw! As it seemed to eat my battery..
Also monitoring my 3G usage with 3G Watchdog.
--
Recently using Autokiller Memory Optimiser (might have gotten the name wrong..) I'm having around 160-170mb of RAM free, this with a task killer running, 3G Watchdog, Lookout, Battery Widget and Superuser.
Scoring a proper 2450 on Quadrant Benchmark.
My battery lasts around a day with pretty heavy use.
I often take it out to game for a while, an hour a day or so, shoot some pictures, send a lot of 'What'sApp' messages etc.
Charge it up at around 18:00 and have around 25% battery remaining the next day at the same time.
I'd love to hear your experiences, uses, complains, tips etc.
o2x currently running cyanogenmod 7 #111 nightly (2.3.5)
apps: droidwall, juice defender, automatic task killer
battery usage is similar to mafs'
quadrant score 3127 (not OC'd)

was using DJDroid v0.7,it has good battery life, using 1% every 1+ hrs during standby while using juice defender.
the quadrant is only around 2200 to 2400+.
I use cyanogen mod nightly I don't look at benchmarks, but the battery is really better than in stock. I can stay 3 day in idle and when I'm on the internet (with wifi) my battery goes down 10% per hour (a bit too much ).

Is it a recent problem? due to a new install of CM7?
Check with Cpuspy if the phone enters in deepsleep.
Your plot shows a weak phone signal for some hours but this does not seem to be the cause of the drain. The slope is quiet constant over the time.
Do you have an app running in background?
Philippe
I recommend using the original kernel of CM7 to not have high battery consumption.
Also recommend using the CM Stable because the Nightlys always use a lot of battery.
I use Cm7 Stable with the following tweaks in build.prop to help save battery.
# Save battery
wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=180
pm.sleep_mode=1
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0
ro.sf.lcd_density=240
ro.sf.hw_lcd_density=240
ro.kernel.android.checkjni=0
Hope helped you.
Hugs! :silly:
Cm7 original kernel has freezes and sods and this kernel is better although in the gps but the battery was good after i installed it for the first time then battery get worse by time i installed cm9 ultrasound 3 for testing and then get back to the cm7 by nandroid backup then the drain started
When i installed it for the first time it took 0% dor 10 hours of deep sleep next night it took 5% third night it took 10% fourth night it took 15 don't know why
How to know if I have running apps in the background?

Perhaps you should clear the battery stats ... I don't know if the NANDROID restore the batttery stats.
Normal whatsapp and other things small I mean the normal as first time I installed cm7

Strange. If it was app we would see some wacklocks. But there's none. Do nadroid backup and check on stock if the same happens. This could be hardware failure.
No not on the stock only with same cm7 I'm using now first the battery was very very very good but now no let me clear battery status and see If we can do some things
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda app-developers app
without using it only can stay for 10 hours only why????
Zeus can stand for 2% per all night but cm7 powers off after 10 hours
Zeus' battery drain
In my opinion is the battery consumption of Zeus very high, especially when the screen is on!
Hey XDA,
My battery life is completely terrible, I get around 2 hours with screen on and down to around 50% after 5 hours on deepsleep standby.
I'm using the Opticthrust ROM and Kowalski kernel. What's the best combination for battery life? Prefeberly JB but ICS is fine.
Thanks,
ZePotatox
How old is your battery?
Are you using the newest Optithrust? I'm pretty sure it gives decent battery life to other users.
Try recalibrating your batter and charge it to full. - Turn it off, remove battery, put battery back, plug in charger, wait for a battery charging animation to appear, turn your phone on. Check if this make any changes.
As for ROM im using, Im using the one from Civato CivZ_FLEX-ICER rev4.5 and his latest kernel. I can get to 2 days easy.
Moderate use - texts and few calls, no games, wifi sometimes, only on 2g network.
Rom: cm10 by pengus77 newbl
kernel: kowalski exp-112
@1300Mhz
Governer: ondemand
io:row
Screen time:3h
Mostly used for gaming n web browsing on mobile data...no wifi

AW: Best ROM + Kernel for battery life
when i am using my phone rarely, i get 2 days out of one charge. cm10.1 + latest kowalski kernel.
tip for battery saving, disable location services!
With rom optithrust I've always had a weird problem with the battery. the evening off the phone and in the morning I found myself with 30-40% less battery. Maybe you have the same problem when my deep sleep.
Try the advice of puffingman or change rom. I am with Pacman 4.2.2 and the battery does not give me problems. Statistics for my battery has almost two years.

you can take all the inputs...but it is good to ask the Moderator to close this thread....as Best ROM threads are not permitted in XDA forum.
Thanks for the understanding
Note: if you are interested, I use dual boot....with OptiThrust and DM...both stock based ROMs....I get atleast one day and a half in both of these ROMs when activated.
There is no such thing as best ROM and kernel. Go to development section and choose your combo.

How much screen on time do you get?
Did you use it all the time before capturing that screenshot or was it idle?
Sent from my Xperia V using XDA Free mobile app
I did normal usage on it, or let's say the same as any other day. Using WhatsApp mostly. My stock ROM gives me at least 19h without using stamina mode, CM give me a good day from a new installation, but after day two I get this battery drain.

The next time it happens, take a screenshot like this, a screenshot of the graph when you first get into battery usage...and also take a screenshot of your screen on time (you get to it by tapping on "screen" in battery usage tab). Because if you get around 3:45 - 4:30 hours of screen on time, it's not bad battery life but actually maximum of what our phone can get.
