Change 'other usage' to 'partial wake usage' and see what's keeping the phone up.
Rusty hi. It says Android systems.
6 hours of non use since unplugging I'm down to 44 percent battery. Errrrrr!!!!!

use system panel and see which processes and apps are using your cpu. its a free app, but the paid version gives you much more options and shows you a list of each app that used your cpu. that's what you need.
btw, system panel is by far the best app for this on the market!

What ROM and Kernel are you on and how long ago did you flash to it (assuming it's a custom ROM)?
Reason I ask is that I had sleep issues with a ROM that was fine but somehow didn't flash well. Reflashing the same ROM over fixed my battery issues. This might not be what's going on with you just any bit of info can help when it comes to chasing down ghost CPU cycles/battery issues.
Also, did you recalibrate you battery yet? It could be an issue of your battery not getting charged to 100% or dying before <1%
Ok cool I just downloaded the free version do you think I should buy the paid version better?

Hi! I have cyanogem mod 6.1
0 running kernel 2.6.35
9 cyanogenmod shade @ toxygene #2
I flashed a while ago but it seemed ok then. I'm not 100 percent sure but it kinda seems the problem started when I did a backup and a restore. ;(

I'm getting a headache ;(
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Guys, my sister has had her I9000 for a good few months now and everything was fine until recently.
She phoned me (knowing I like my phones) saying her battery life had become really poor over a couple days.
So I took the phone off her and updated it with Kies, so now it's running the latest Kies Gingerbread for that phone. I should point out it is not rooted, completely stock.
I noticed some crummy looking app's like Android Anti-Virus and Task Killer so removed them hoping one of them was acting the goat.......everything seemed to be going good until yesterday and she charged the phone all night until 8am and when it came to around 2pm the phone was flashing up with low battery alert. She said she had used twitter a little and browsed on the internet a while.
I have told her to get CPU Spy and look if the phone is going into deep sleep, yesterday it had 0% deep sleep and today it is saying 70% deep sleep even though the battery only lasted 6 hours before low battery warning...
Any ideas what I can do to track down where the problem is? Would she see better battery with ICS or a custom GB ROM?
Mine did this on stock ROM luckily mine lagged when I went into battery use it was Samsung app push update service or something like that but thanks to the lag it showed sleep lock before it shower that service I uninstalled then it could go back into deep sleep

it will root your device and install clockwork mod, should fix the battery issues though. Try flashing the CF root kernel via odin. Theres a tutorial in the thread.
After the odin flash, you can use titanium app for remove apps or system apps unnecessary
Hi fellas,
Im just wondering is there any fix on 4.0.4?
I mean the battery issues and overheated device? Cuz im thinking of rooting my device in the end to just giving it a try. But it will void the warrany for sure. So, just wanna know if any of ya all just happen to know if thers any fix coming out real soon. So that i can wait.
It seems that my device is now consider as useless piece of s...t just wondering why would i want to use this so called smartphone if i cant use live wallpaper, push email, screen brightness for my luvly super amoled screen and so on if it drains the battery like thirsty camel. It just a thought tho.... U guy might be thinking the same. So, i did all the the things like calibrating the batt, installed cpuspy, take out the batt on plane mode trick and so on.. , yes it did help the device to sleep. But it drains when im using it for 3 hrs with a lil bit of surfing, emails and sketching .it just doesnt make any sense at all.
Dont you guy think that samsung is trying to lure us to change to s3? Or note 2? Well it did cross my mind. Lol. i might not consider samsung in the near future. I guess,htc x one is my choice cuz it offers 6hrs batt. Hehehe

dude battery life with screen on in clean condition, without fancy stuff is only 3.5 hours. Some with other kernels/roms have reported 4 or even 5 hours, but that's really max
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2
It is a power hungry phone,
Large screen - If you've got your brightness all the way up will use more power
Live Wallpaper - Pretty - Battery drainer
Games - Power hungry
etc
As mentioned - you cannot expect to use a phone like this for 8/9/10 hours with constant use, At 3 hours constant use, screen on, probs wi-fi / data, Gaming, listening to music.. you will see the battery drain quicker..
Could alsways pick up a one of those larger Mugen Power Batteries / second stock battery if your usage demands it... I've got two stock batteries but the actual amount of times I've need to call on the backup one is rare, I keep it handy as both me and my girlfriend have GNote's.

Thx for replying guys,
Maybe i left something earlier on. 3 hrs of moderate usage..as in moderate guys. Ddnt hppn to me on gb. I had at least 5 hrs max on gb without turning off thos fancy stuffs.Thats the main issue. So ics is the culprit.

Have you used BetterBatteryStats to see what's happening in the background? Maybe you've a rogue app installed....

Well then there are ways to analyse, as posted above for abnomal battery drain in deepsleep, when not using phone. That is one option.
Best guess is to do a full clean install of 404 by going to gb through pc odin, root it, get on cwm recovery, wipe cache, dalvik cache, backup efs, save pictures on computer, backup messages with app from play, sync contacts to gmail and then backbin recovery format everything in mounts, except efs,ofcourse.
Then phone wont boot, but is truly squicky clean. Then go into download mode and flash throught oc odin a stock 404 rom.
Do not recover apps/data, just manually redownload them.
Dont ever on unsafe kernel from stock ics do these steps. EVER!
Then download cwm. zip which is temp and flash speedmod k3-11 from recovery. I bet your battery life will improve and you will get 4 hours screen on time. Not as good as on gb,but still better then now
there are threads for every single step here, start in dr ketans thread in sticky section of development. Then tool thread of dr ketan in general section.
disclaimer: you can and will lose data and possibly warrantee

Thanks bazz,
Haha its me again complaining bout the batt in
Here. Well i did all the tricks from the past thread. Well it worked as in the device went to sleep like a baby. But when i wakes up, only god knows. But yeah, thnx for the info again, but thats the problem bazz, i just need to know bout the fix. Tried to call samsung support but they are not too sure bout it. Cuz im willing to wait for the fix but not too long. Currently i hv dis dilemma of maybe selling the phone with stock rom, and buy another phone
or rooting this phone which im not too sure how to go about.

Use the BetterBatteryStats to see what`s going on behind and CPU spy to see what is the Mhz you Note is at.
On 4.0.3 ICS I find my battery lasts longer than on GB.. Strange!
i dont have problems on 4.0.4 with draining or heating...
maybe there is some app .... e-mail push 5 min......
Same here. GNote with ICS 4.0.3 has a worse battery life compared to GB, not to mentioned occasional freeze and unresponsive screen, also broken wifi-direct. Pretty disappointed with Samsung in the software department. Jelly Bean was already out and OTA for ICS 4.0.4 for both my GNote and GTab 7.7 not yet available in my country. Come on Samsung, these products is a premium products, pls provide a premium software update. Pfffttt...

If you think your battery life used to be so much better with gb why don't you go back to gb? No obligation to use ics. I use 4.0.4 with goku kernel and battery life is at least as good as it was under gb. 4 - 5 hours of usage, lasts a full working day.

just try clean install already and be amazed

Okay, so ive done quite lots of tricky stuff before, and guess what.. I hv found the solution for now.I hope...
1.Charge battery with phone turned on until galaxy is fully charged
2.UnplugTurn off phone and charge for one hour
3.UnplugTurn galaxy on, wait 3 minutesTurn off phone and charge for one hour
4.Reboot
And now my batt is coming back to its normal performance... I get around 11hrs 45 min on standby and at least 6hrs of moderate usage.... Thank god. Hopefully it will last..

I feel like having the same autonomy like GB since I went on 404.
lol email push 5 min, dont think you know push technology...
Anyways, those six hours is not with screen on all the time.
Doing the steps I mentioned however will force a full clean install. Then test without restoring apps battery, you will be amazed. Then install in batches or one by bone to eliminate possible culprit that impacts battery life.
Perhaps even better to go to samsung/shop where you bought and ask them to fix it If it is battery they will catch it and replace Less risk for you

Obtained this info from another thread:
about the alarm_rtc wakelock;
install terminal emulator from market and type these commands:
- su ( followed by ENTER )
- dumpsys alarm ( followed by ENTER )
it will dump some info on your screen
scroll upwards a bit and search for 'Alarm Stats'
here you can find the processes that keep your phone from deep sleep

did you wiped battery stats in cwm? If not charge the battery to full first.go to cwm.wipe it under advanced.reboot phone.let the battery drain out.then charge to full again continuously.
You can use battery calibration from playstore also for the same purpose.
Swyped To Help.
Okay I will try that...when u say let battery drain out do u mean I can still use it until its very low or until its un useable? Thanx Mr

yes, use it until it turns off and then put on charging and full charge it, if possible then in switched off mode only, repeat this for 2-3 cycles, it's best way to calibrate battery.
Recommended to follow this whenever you flash new rom.

I've not yet wiped batt stats yet but I going to give it full charges and let it run out and really charge again and see if that helps. Reason why is I never normally full charge it...I just charge it half way at times so maybe my battle might not need calibration.

I was using galaxy gear for a week, and battery last about 1-2 days.
Today suddenly I have got huge battery drain, it went from 100% to 22% in 4 hours. During this period I received about 20 notification and 1 call, with duration about 3 minutes. No more actions with the gear. I suppose, there must be some app, which drains battery, but there is no way to look which one. I am on the latest firmware. Any suggestions what should I do?
Did you install a new app? Try just rebooting it if not. Some process may have gotten stuck.
Edit: are you using null rom or stock?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk
I am on stock (rooted) I have installed couple of apps yesterday evening . Yeap, I have restarted, now investigating if the battery still drains.
