Hello,
I find the battery is awesome on Miui 7 BUT it could be better:
loosing 15% battery for 1.5 hour of not using the phone seems too much for me.
Anyone sharing good experience on that matter?
Hey my friend i get awesome battery life... If you can see.. I would get over 10 SOT "screen on time" mostly i use just whats app and music... Here are the proofs.. I am on the latest miui 7 rom developer.. I would in your situation flash full wipe and install one by one every app and try hold some time between every installation... And in this time keep an aye of your battery and with a wakelock app and better battery stats... Try and reply.. And dont forget.. Calibrate your battery at first after clean flash..

You have such battery life on Note Pro? It seems impossible . I and all people I know have only 4,5 SOT not more.
Which firmware do you use? Brightness is AUTO?

You can also set the resolution of the Mi Note Pro to 1280x720 to save battery life.

Hi!
I'm not a big fan of the stock LG lockscreen, as many others i've seen.
I have tried GOTO Lockscreen, it's nice and all, but there are some bugs that I experience on the O2x. I've looked at Widgetlocker, but some of the comments in marked is saying it's a battery drainer and I do NOT need more drainage on the O2x
Do any of you have a functional lockscreen recommendation ?
flash custom ROM with stock lockscreen.

If you take a look in the battery thread, you'll see I'd rather not.. until the drainage I experience on my O2x is fixed ..:-/ (Have not tried Fr8 and Fr10 yet, but my hands is itching ........)
I use my phone quite a lot in my work, and I need the batt. time I get from stock 10b.
Give it some time, the system needs couple of days to "get to know" the battery, it should improve after some time
As far as someone once said here...
Edit: if you insist on keeping the phone stock, install widget locker

Download Autokiller (put it in agressive mode) and download juicy defender
These 2 programs are great getting the battery to last more than a day without a problem!

Hate LG lockscreen too. I would like to change for android stock lockscreen but dont wanna use any custom roms.
What is called lg lockscreen apk ? Can i somehow change it for stock android lockscreen ? My phone is rooted.
Check out Paul's post "Stock Patch Pack - AOSP style lockscreen" on Modaco.
Sorry. Too new to post link.

??? Have 2-11mA drain in standby with Custom ROM and about 50 with stock so...
and btw much more speed and the Custom ROM is faster I think (feels mor smooth than stock).
50mA with stock ROM? Forget it. I have stock ROM and drain is from 1mA to 10mA.

Depends on what you did during that period.. If the processor was running at MAX frequency the entire time, yes thus might be normal.. Also as I notice from the screenshot, the screen is always in in that time frame.. So you deduce from this

No. It's broken. You should send it to me.
Hi,
Thats an abnormal drain. Try restarting your phone and seeing if the problem persists. Also note that the ROM you are using is still under testing and not a finished product so might experience some difficulties. Consider shifting to a more stable ROM if problem persists.
Having said that, battery drain will depend quite a lot on what apps you have running in the background and your settings.
Best way to analyse the situation is by installing an app called 'Better battery stats'. Its by a XDA member and if i'm not mistaken he offers it on XDA as free download. Try to see what is causing partial wakelocks and kernel wakelocks (your phone should be on deep sleep mode for the majority of time). Try to see what MHz is your processor running at (it shouldnt be in the 1400 range for too long unless you are playing some heavy duty games)
Also try to search for threads on 'wakelocks' on XDA to get more details on this subject.
I have experienced close to 10% drop in 1.5 hr in stock ROMs and around 15% in five hours on CleanNote ROM in idle states with lots of background apps disabled.
How about your battery duration? The mine is 2 hours in continuing use in navigation with 3g,cm7 and p990h model. The phone overheats in camera zone and the undervolt dont fix nothing.

this is my experience too. I´m loading everyday at work, so i have enough battery for the rest of the day
quite good
always on 3g ,1.5 h music ,40 sms ,some surf over 3g and wifi ( during lunchtime )
if i make a light usage ,i can manage to last 2 days , i'm quite satisfied
i last 3 days if i dont use wifi /3G and with second core disabled (i make it during trip)
i'm on CM7 Hybrid revolution by stefan.
I think your phone have a REAL problem, even if i try i just cant empty my batt in 2 hours (even with OC ,screen backlite maximus ,and playing riptide online.......i lasted 3 h)

i think it would make more sense to rate your battery life by stating how long the screen was on and on what conditions (wifi on/off/ 3g/ 2g/ brightness lv/ have you been watching video or playing games/ just typing sms or what ever)
my record was about 6h screen on time at 25% brigtness, 2g, gaming about half of that time. but i suspect the battery is getting old now, since i struggle to reach 3.5 h screen on time with the same conditions and much less gaming.

that is a very old and out dated rom, change into anything more recent is my advice. try cm10/stefans rom
My Xperia V was draining much battery while sleeping, so yesterday I flashed cm-10.1.3-RC2 hoping it could get better.
But it's still draining almost 30% in a period of 8 hours, while I'm sleeping.
I can notice a huge drain caused by Google Services and have already greenified some apps.
It can't be normal, right?! Could someone help me?
Despite this problem, now I have a really better smartphone... So, thank FXP and, please, keep supporting Xperia V. :thumbup:
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Not sure if this question belongs to be an own thread...but ok. here we go.
from my experience with Cm i can tell you, if you want better battery life, then you maybe should use a stock firmware!
I used CM and AOKP some weeks before, but the battery drain wasnt normal, not to say horrible.
But this is my experience. You should ask in your CM-Rom Thread, or CM Q/A Thread i think.
I'm a new member and I couldn't ask this in CM thread
I understood what you've said, but even using stock rom I was having that percentage of draining at night...
Do you have a Xperia V?
Could you (or someone else) tell me how much draining is considered normal in the period I've mentioned before?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
30% in 8 hours means that on average your battery will last a day.
That is perfectly normal.
Also, if you keep flashing stuff and installing apps then it drains battery quicker. Leave it alone for a week and see if it settles down.
Sorry, i have a Xperia T.
in the xperia T thread of tilals unofficial CM build (development section) someone mentions also such problems:

So, i guess its normal? But an actual CM User can give you better report. Not using it anymore.
awww, gregbradley?
30% in 8hours sleeping? horrible....but you are right, let it settle, fmlogin
Omg, my Galaxy s3 loses only 2% in the same period while sleeping, it's a BIG difference
I had been facing this problem since I bought this phone (2 months ago), that's why I tried to flash CM yesterday... So, I think that nothing will change if I just wait...
Anyway, thank you guys...
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
apologies, I didn't see that it was 8 hours while you were asleep. That is not right. But it may be because its working hard after a flash. Please leave it for a while and it should settle, or install better battery stats app (Free on xda) and see whats keeping the phone awake.
Also check what your cpu is set at and the governor, if its on performance it will be maxing out all the time..
The governor is ondemand and I didn't change the clock of cpu...
I'll install the app and come back with a screenshot, so I think it'll be easier to find some problem

Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Some screenshots.
The graphs show another problem: it is like the phone just know that lost some battery when I turn on the screen.
For example: if I leave the phone with 95%, it pass the hole night "thinking" it has this value, but when I turn on the screen the battery instantly loses around 15%, this "fast drain" stabilizes when it reaches the "real percentage".
Could it be a hardware problem? The battery itself...
Has already someone noticed something similar?
