What's your battery drain? Some screen shots to see what’s draining?'

See attached screenshot.
Thanks

I can't see the battery graph, so i'm not sure if you charged it, but
27 hrs uptime and down only by 33%....How is that bad?

Here is the graph.

I also faced same problem before, tried different kernels, Cyanogen Mods but nothing helped then I tried MIUI which is the best ROM so far. Very battery friendly. You can download ROM from here - http://www.miui.com/getrom.php, LG Optimus 4XHD is listed as LG P880. It comes without Gapps so you have to install each app manually (as I did). For play store install it as system app or you can not download app from play store from browser. ROM comes with 3 languages English, Chinese (simplified), Chinese (traditional). You may find other language patch here (I hope) - http://xiaomi.eu/community/categories/miui-multi-language-project.81/

there's miui gapps, no need to install th e packages manually....
anyhow even if ou recharged a bit the drain doesn't seem so bad..
Ideal consumption in this phone is about 1%/hr when idle, check if your consumption matches that
Also you can install better battery stats from android apps and check in detail what's draining your power

CM 7.2 RC 5.6 battery issue!

Guys i just flashed cm7 r.c 5.6 and having a huge battery issue, my battery is draining drastically, within like half an hour it goes to 25% from 100%
P.s i have installed one stock app i.e Task manager and rest all app are installed from market as usual.
Is it a basic ROM bug/problem or should i wipe my phone once?
in my opinion, last release is better. it has more features.
but, yes, also have some bugs.
open cyanogenmod settings -> performance -> spare parts -> battery information.
when charge your phone, see the battery information. make sure its showing 'Full' instead of 'Charging'.
Did you also install the first update for the version 5.6???
The download for it is below the ROM download. That was supposed to correct this issue.

ICS NovaHd wifi battery drain

Hi,
I'm using NovaHD, on all the versions I tested, there's always the same problem: wifi drains a lot of battery, it goes from 100% to 0 in less than a hour. The phone also lags hard when wifi is active, apps freeze sometimes.
I didn't see anyone talking about this kind of problem on the forum.
Of course I tried a full wipe, but the problem is still here...
Thanks
Which kernel are you using?
I can recommend the 3.0.36 Nova kernel Pure Edition.
With that one I get very good battery life, even with games, one hour of phoning, some internet browsing and frequent visits to gmail.
Let phone reboot a few times after install and make sure you have correct RIL. Try GetRIL or LG RIL Version.
BR
Mike
really?? i use nova hd build 16.29 for more than a month and no problem for me
have you ever tried calibrating your battery?
btw, don't bother to try older builds (16.xx, 17.xx, and 18.xx work great in my phone!)
I'm using the last "Rebuild v1.1.0", and the kernel is 3.0.33 Nova version 1.0.7, I'll try to install the Pure edition.
btw the RIL doesn't correspond to baseband so I'm installing the right one now.

I know, they dont match, according to GetRIL, but if I install matching RIL, strangely enough, I dont have any tele-connection.
I tried a few combinations, before I got the winning pair!!

Thanks for helping, it seams the problem is solved.
I just changed the RIL and installed the last Nova kernel, I also removed Shazam cause it was always running in background when wifi was active.
But the last Nova kernel doesn't support OC ?!

Baseband Requests optimus 2x p990 Gingerbread

Hi,
I am from India and a newbie to Android world.
I have a LG stock ROM(optimus 2x p990 Gingerbread). The factory version of the ROM is LGP990AT-00-V20e-ESA-XXX-OCT-28-2011.
The baseband is 1035.21_20110725
After taking a backup of image of Stock ROM with CWM,I have installed Gueste 2x v3.6 Hybrid Revolution, with symbiosis kernel.I have found it to be stable with good GUI
I have observed a heavy battery drain, with RIL v10d(Europe)
I am planning to flash 218 baseband as suggested by stefan.
But before doing so, I want to clear my doubts and have few requests
1) what are the best settings for a good battery life? I am switching to 2g networks when not surfing/downloading.
I am also using lots of apps, for my kid, who uses my mobile for a hour or so.
2)In case I need to go to Stock LG ROM, where can I get the original baseband, as I do not find it it anywhere, so as to to restore the CWM backup.
3) Stefan- Your ROM is wonderful. I have got few requests.Can you please port the stock LG Messaging app, Contacts app & "Backup & Restore" app .
Thanks
I am also from India.
I am using 0725 Baseband with v20d(Asia) RIL.
I dont have any battery problems whatsoever on this baseband and RIL combo. I get a straight 1 and half day on moderate usage (Few call and texting, 2g browsing for an hour or so, some music listening)
Battery drain wont be always due to baseband. It may also depend on some of the Apps you use which run in background.
Check the battery usage from the settings and see which program is using most of your battery.
Press "THANKS" if this helped.
Use the search function instead of starting a new thread. Please close this one.
Thanks Shane582.
I am sure that the battery drain was due to wrong bb (725) and RIL(v10d Europe).
As I am unable to get the LGP990AT-00-V20e-ESA-XXX-OCT-28 version of KDZ, I had posted the mail here, hoping that some one may help me.
Anyway this is not required now.
Also since this was my first post, I couldn't thank Stefan for his superb ROM( Gueste 2x v3.6 Hybrid Revolution )
found at the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1464986
Also I do a search properly, hoping to find a solution. Hence till date for the past one month, I was able to flash CWM, 5 different ROMs and come to a satisfactory solution for the issues faced.
Excepting for some rookies, I found the forum quite helpful, for sorting out all kinds of problems
Thanks everyone.

[Q&A] Marvel ICS - Highly Customizable ROM

Let us keep the Marvel ROM development thread clean. Where everyone can post here. Even newbies.
So all Q&A will go here.
Other senior members can help answer questions are also welcome here.
Helloo...im using your great rom for few days.Its quite good...but kinda slow for me with stock kernel(i know that i can flash other kernels) Can you add strong accord kernel ?
Thx
Sorry for bad Eng.
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda app-developers app
It is possible that the ROM provides customization options within the system and not at the time of the install mode similar CM10 that are based on?
For example: clock in the center or on the side, various styles of lockscreen, clock + date style, style icons and battery etc..
Another thing would be, you can deploy LED notifications?
Sorry my English.

Customization options within system requires a lot xml file modifications. This will take some time. For notification, have you tried LG Touch LED Notification app? Its free on play store.
I've got a question about choosing apps, can i add my apps before install/flash rom? i mean, can i add my luncher, keyboard, im using holo luncher and swift key (both are bought) and it will be nice to have only them without others lunchers/keyboard.

No that works not. Generally speaking you need something first to change it.

I just installed this rom since about a week, had some battery drain problems. I switched to the interactive governor and this got a bit better. One big drain is wifi, for this i installed an app which disconnects wifi when screen goes off and on again when i wake my phone. Another problem is that the phone is constantly awake and never goes into deep sleep. Any solution for that?
hi ppl, here is my review, i change to hellmanor kernel. first impression that its running good, i need a lot of battery and when i set to lionheart and cfq. i manage to have a working phone over 24 hrs with low usage, around 8 short calls, about 2 hrs of wifi, no data 2/3g at all, and around 1 hr of gaming. and few minutes ago i put to recharge, battery left b4 charge - 44%
the funny thing is that i notice that my phone start to ring very late while incoming calls, i use vibrate with sound, while a call is incoming, the phone vibrate around 5 sec b4 the sound kicks in, this wasn't happening with stock kernel.
do u think that it might be the governor i chose or maybe I/O ? maybe the low cpu speed when phone in deep sleep?
thanks
sol
Lockscreen
Hi Tantrums,
first thanks for you work.Greate job I have several questions. Is it possible turn off the locksreen rotation? I hate it If i get the sms or miss call, the notification bar show me. But if i turn off this in notification, sms still like unread. I want accept it from notification, not go to the sms or dialer and tap to miss call or sms. Last is GPS. After lock the satelites, gps work normal. But if i want use it for running, walking and others, gps is not realy correct. Sport tracker show me bad way, distance and speed. I guess gps use only few satellites. Do you can change this for next version? Please! Because you ROM is awesome.
Thanks you.
I wonder how I install CWM recovery without flashing the regular v20s via SFT? I tried not to install this custom CMW ('ve had problems with it to restore roms at other times) but could not.
I await your help.
Hello!
I have not been able to sort out the issue of date & time sync with my network provider, I have to do it manually & I have to go through all the pain every time I reboot my phone.
Also, is there any app to control the extensive battery drain?

from the Play Store, download and install "No-frills CPU Control". Open the program and set the governor to either "performance" or "interactive". Set the scheduler to "cfq". That should help with the battery. (it should actually double it).
Not sure about the time sync. Someone else was manually having to do it too.
Have you performed a factory reset via settings or the hidden menu?

Did you flash v30 baseband? Coz for me it solved the problem with auto time/date sync.

AW: [Q&A] Marvel ICS - Highly Customizable ROM
I had the problem with wrong time sync a lot with CM10 as I used a v20 baseband. After upgrading to v30 baseband I only had it with one CM10.1 ROM.

I used the base band from Huexxx when I updated from GB to ICS:

You should be able to change the base band even after you install a ROM image.
Hi, I'd like to try this ROM but I just have a few quick questions as I couldn't find a clear answer reading through all the posts in this thread and the dev. thread...
Is flashing the baseband absolutely essential to run this ROM? I currently have V20j as I'm in Canada on the Koodo (Telus) provider. I noticed the basebands (versions V30x) are for Europe and Germany etc. Would this not cause an issue as I'm in Canada? Would the language still be in English?
Also there are several baseband versions, I'm not sure which one I should use. Can anyone help me understand which one I should use (if any)?
Does this ROM contain it's one gapps version as well as it's own Kernel? (I'm currently using kernel 3.0.8)
I'm currently running Mackay 2.7.6 (JB 4.2.2) so I'm assuming just a factory/data wipe, wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache, and install the zips from SD, correct?
Can someone confirm the bluetooth works with this ROM (audio works) as well as camera works completely?
Thanks in advance.
I will try with the v30 baseband.

No it's not essential. I don't know if it's better to stay with your baseband or flash the european open. I would first stay with the one you have and than after a few days try the v30 one, if v30 works well it's probably better. You know that some contries in europe speek English too? (Like England.)

Your getting something complettly wrong here, this is not CM9 based it's based on the oficiall LG v30b, so Gapps are not needed (you could say there already included, but it's more like there not removed). Marvel11 comes with aroma installer and includs 3 different kernels. Mackay is CM10.1 based, so everything is different, the kernel for sure.
Can someone confirm the bluetooth works with this ROM (audio works) as well as camera works completely?

Camera works, GPS didn't for me (europe) but it might for you, bluetooth I hardly ever use so I can't garantie but it works on other v30 based ROMs so I don't see why not. (As said it's not CM9 based.)
Don't make a fuss just try it, it should work. If it doesn't you probably made something wrong, than come back explain what you did and probably a few ppl can help you.
do we need to flash v30 baseband separately? doesn't it gets flashed along with the ROM?

[Q] Official JB 4.1.2 Firmware

Hi,
Many countries ROM are now available on SAM Mobile.
Can anyone suggest which one is best on battery and performance.
I tried GERMANY firmware and it ain't good. It hangs a lot and battery is very poor.
Currently using SER , Russia firmware and it also not stable. It is slow and battery is again an issue.
Please advice which one should i flash in order to have best battery and performance ?
Regards,
Kaps
You'll ge the most support for the German one: XXLSZ
They will all have the same battery life and performance one you remove the bloat that comes with it. Make sure you do a factory reset before flashing JB (on condition that you are on a safe kernel, if you are not then flash a safe kernel like Philz first).
I did flash Germany version thinking the same, but found it a little sluggish.
Also my phone starting rebooting on its own.
yesterday i have flashed UAE version and so far it is good. It is fast and smooth.
Battery :
I charged to 100% today 6:00 AM
With moderate use and data always on, smart stay, and full brightness, it is currently at 80% (current time is 12:02)
I think it would provide good battery results. Will keep you posted.
