[Q] Battery Drain while Droid is powered off.

I am having trouble with the OG Droid draining battery while it is off. I power if off, just like usual, with 100 percent battery life. Turn it on in the morning and it is at 50 percent. I remember this happened a LONG time ago, on Froyo when VZW dropped the first Froyo release. I can't remember what I did to fix it.
Currently Running:
Liquid GB 2.3 (soon to be 2.4)
Wiped batterystats, still to no avail. Is there a particular way or method I should use to re-calibrate the battery?
Recently cleared the Davlik-Cache, which seems to have resolved a slew of other issues, but it is when this battery crap started.
Titanium backing up everything here now, nandroid backup, then wipe and reload to the latest version to see if that fixes any issues. I didn't know if anyone had any insight into what maybe causing this? I think I read it is when a process gets stuck and never fully shutsdown.

[Q] Phone Shuts Down when Chargıng after Flashıng CM9 & CM10

I purchased my Captivate in July 2010, used it for a year without rooting, flashing, etc. Had no problems with random shut off.
After moving overseas, I had to flash a ROM, long story. Used Serendepity ROM for a year with no problems.
At the end of July this year I flashed CM9. At this point, I begin to have problems with the phone shutting off while charging. This did not happen except when charging. In order to turn the phone back on I have to disconnect it from the power cable. This happened rather frequently at first, but gradually began to happen every night.
A couple of days ago I flashed CM10 and it still happens. Two days ago I downloaded SetCPU and set the minimum speed to 200 Mhz when charging. However, this did not solve the problem.
Any ideas on a fix?
Thank you in advance for any help.

Did you make any mods or change any settings?
Also, did you try using a different kernel? (Devil / Semaphore)

You might also flash back to Serendipity and see if the problem persists. If it doesn't then of course it's an issue with CM but if it continues I would say its a hardware problem or potentially a bad charger. Personally I've never used either CM9 or 10 but nearly every rom I've used is based off of them and I've never had this issue. So unless you've done something weird with the settings as BWolf suggested then I would lean towards hardware.

Thank you for the suggestions. I've flashed a couple of kernels (Devil and Semaphore) and the problem continues. I'll test the battery and charger next.

I tried a different battery and charger as well as a couple of other ROMs, with no change. The phone still shut off at night. So, I flashed back to stock 2.1 and the phone did not shut off. I then tried CM10.1 again, but the phone shut off again last night.
So, I've determined that it's not a hardware issue, but so far all Android 4.x ROMs I've flashed have resulted in the phone shutting down at night while charging.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

Try upping your minimum voltage to 200Mhz.

tried it, but it doesn't work.
thanks

Same problem here. CM9 had been doing it fairly regularly. I wiped everything and did a fresh CM10 install before bed without installing any other apps or changing settings and it shut off over night. I'm flashing back to stock now too confirm whether that fixes the issue

[Q] Screen Flickering Issue

Hello everyone!
I have searched for other members who have this specific issue.. But I wasn't able to find any. So.. I have a Samsung Galaxy S Note (N7000) Model with a Screen Flickering issue. A few weeks ago I first experienced this after installing JB. I have tried several different clean installs with different JB leaks, even AOKP roms and more. But nothing seemed to fix this...
For a year my Note was working perfect, battery life was amazing and I loved it... But somewhere (between JB custom rom installs) it feels like it broke something... My phone works perfectly for like 6/7 hours now, it even goes in deep sleep and I have even bought myself a new battery... (So it's not a battery problem!)
At the moment I have returned to the RocketRom JB version (since that one was the last rom I have remembered before my phone died). But I still have this problem... So... my phone drains fast, and at around 5-30% battery left, according to the indicator it starts flickering when using apps and just interacting with the phone itself... And all of a sudden it just drops out.
Here's a quick recording of the issue. You can clearly see the flickering and the dropout.... I hope someone has any tips for this issue.

i had exactly the same problem
i solved it when i buy a new one battery.....and yes now its working like a new one.......

Replace Your Battery

I already replaced my battery... still have the problem.

[Q] Bad phone or Bad flash? Please tell me I've been doing everything wrong..

First off, an introduction. I seem to have bad luck with Android devices. Oh well, I love them anyway! Had a Galaxy S Captivate, Then a Tmobile Galaxy S 4G, and finally my N7000.
Problems have come with every device. The Captivate couldn't connect with Odin back in the day, so every flash was a dirty flash since I couldn't go stock. The Galaxy S 4G would constantly have problems. It was fine for awhile, but the ROMS never lasted. Always started to restart and glitch out. Random reboots, etc...
Now for my Note. It has been a great phone, despite a few drawbacks. It's over 2 years old; I purchased it right after they first came out. It worked great for about a year, even on custom roms. The last year, I've fallen way behind in the development area, but I've always ran custom. This whole year, I've been battling a couple huge issues. It started out as bad battery life. No big deal, I thought. Check stats, find the source, fix it. Then I try to flash a new rom. Still doesn't work. I end up living with the issue. That problem escalated into restarts, and even worse battery life. A flash or two later, and nothing worked better. Eventually, about half a year ago, I noticed my battery was started to swell. Thought that was the source of everything. I was wrong. New battery, and my phone is running just as bad, while getting steadily worse daily.
Presently, my phone is a mess. It's running ParanoidAndroid 4.3, BUT I am downloading the Team Asylum Kit Kat ROM right now as I type this. On PA, I have left the phone nearly completely stock since the flash. I followed the installation perfectly, even completely formatting both my internal and external SD cards to ensure a 100% new flash. Of course, it didn't help. Currently, my phone's battery won't last a day on light usage. 9 hours of life, and it will be to 5%. The last 30% of life drops EXTREMELY fast. When the phone was new, I would go 2 days on a charge easily. The source of this battery loss appears to be the infamous ANDROID OS, but I could never find the source, despite multiple apps trying to monitor my CPU and Batterystats. The phone runs Ok enough for daily use to the point where I have dealt with it. The phone will freeze completely every now and then, and a lot of the times it is on the lockscreen. On a complete freeze, it always results in a fast reboot after a minute or so. The last problem I can think of is my inability to read the external SD. A few weeks ago, my phone froze up completely, like normal, so I yanked the battery and rebooted. It started up as normal, but my external SD was nowhere to be found after that incident. No idea what happened, and I haven't had the time to try and get it working again.
Thank you to whoever took the time to read this. I'm sure some of my issues have already been covered in other threads, but I've tried things before and nothing seems to help. Maybe I just have a defective unit. It is getting old after all. I'd really appreciate anyone who might be able to help me resolve these issues. Getting this thing running smooth again would be like Christmas morning all over again.
QUICK SUMMARY FOR THOSE THAT DON'T WANT TO READ EVERYTHING
The phone is over two years old. Used to work good, now it doesn't.
-Replaced battery earlier this year since I noticed swelling in the original.
-Battery life is terrible. Dies after 9ish hours on LIGHT usage. ANDROID OS is the culprit. Used to last 2 days or more.
-Random restarts and lots of freezing.
-Freezing caused my external SD to completely disappear. Haven't been able to get access since.
-Running ParanoidAndroid 3.4. Flashing a new rom after I type this, but it probably won't change anything.
There's your short summary, although I may have already answered some of your suggestions up in my original post. If you can, at least read the second to last paragraph.
Again, thanks to anyone who can offer assistance! It would mean a lot to me since I feel like I still haven't gotten my money's worth out of this thing. Unlocked phones are spendy...

I would go back to stockbased custom roms 4.1.2 I found them very bettery friendly.

In my opinion you do something wrong. I tried several roms and never had strange battery or random reboot problems. Im now on AryaMod V4 and before SweetRom 10.5 and months before SlimBean 2.2 4.3.1 , all excellent Roms.

I've used SweetRom, ParanoidAndroid, Asylum, and Stunner, as well as many different versions of them all. They all worked great back in the day. I'd run them for long periods of time without any big issues. It's just lately, the problems are getting worse, and I don't see how I could be doing anything wrong with the installation.
Installed the latest 4.4.2 Asylum Omni last night. It's running really smooth so far. Other than having it fail to load the google startup thing on first boot, it has been working great. A restart fixed that, and nothing else has happened. Battery life is dropping pretty quickly however, but I need to run it through a few cycles to see how it works. I'm at 65% after 6.5 hours with light usage and 34min of screen on at max brightness. Screen is back on top of the list, as it should be, and is far exceeding Android system and OS, so I'm hoping it works better now. Time will have to tell on this ROM, but I'd still love to figure out why I've had so many problems with other flashes.

URGENT: Best beattery friendly ROM.

Hello!
It all started in early March, when I changed my ROM version for the CM12.1 snapshot. From that moment, my phone became very hot, had random reboots and battery lasted practically nothing. After about three weeks, I found the ROM XenonHD (5.1.1 version), and the battery improved, but not much. In addition, it continued to suffer random reboots. Currently I have the ROM XenonHD (6.0.1 version), and no longer suffer random reboots almost at any time, but the battery is horrible and the phone it's hotter than ever.
I'm desperate to fix this. I've ordered a new battery because it's obvious that something happens with it, and all I ask is if you could recommend me a ROM without random reboots and battery friendly. I don't care if it's based on Android Lollipop (5.1.1) or Marshmallow, all I want is to use my phone without fear that suddenly shut down or run out of battery within two hours.
Thank you very much!

Then you should simply go back to your stock rom, stable and battery friendly.
