Can someone help?

One of my attempts to solve, was to install a custom kernel.
It did not solve everything, but it helped.

Hi.
Installing custom kernel will not solved everything.
U should install Better Battery Stats to find out misbehaving apps which may have drain yr battery.
Cheers..

Heavy Battery draining Problem

guys i didnt used any other jb rom than hellybean
I was on v4 and it was perfect the battery life was awesome and thein I updated to nightly 13/08 and then first I experienced random reboots after every 2-3 minutes of cellphone going to sleep
I did full wipe and installed the rom but still the same problem and the battery was draining very fastly (2-3 % drops in every 5-10 minutes)
Went back to original GB and then again Installed CM 10 alpha and then full wipe and then hellybean but still random reboots and battery draining
went back to GB again and then installed AOKP and then full wipe and then hellybean 17/08 This time there were no random reboots eexcept when I play 720p videos BUt the BATTERY DRAIN IS STILL same 100 % finishes in 3-4 hours (i m not lying)

well that didnt help because I tried them all
Hmm
Have you tried playing with the cpu governors ? But considering the early state of jelly bean development, you should be patient, I think none of the rom are really rady for daily use.

GSam
Try this:
GSAM Battery Monitor on play store.
It has an AppSucker option, where you can see which app was the sucker

Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium HD app
well..I have to say that I had the same problem..
1-st download from market GetRil to see if you have baseband compatibility it may be an issue there. If so fix it, is really easy.
If problem is not solved. I guarantee that changing kernel will do the job. I recommend siyah.
Follow these steps ;
1- install busybox data on your device !
2- go to CWM and wipe cauch ,delvik and battery .
3- reboot your device .
4- enjoy ^=^

BusyBox is a collection of common UNIX programs and utilities. It's required for many root apps and functions. Basically, everybody should have the latest BusyBox installed if they can.

Battery Consumtion issue

I have installed the program GSam Battery in order to check what apps consume my battery
After one week of usage i have seen that Kernal (Android OS) consumes around 15%-20% of battery and phone consumes 5%-7%
I dont believe that this is normal ... Any idea ?
Pay attention that phone is not about talking time . its about processes : gkisystem, rild, *wakelokc*, location, rild_tcmd, com.android.pjone, TIDrv

What rom are you running? Stock? I had the same issue running stock EU JB, but after flashing Omar's rom Android OS only consumes about 7-10%
I would use BetterBatteryStats instead to find out exactly what is waking your phone.

[Battery] i9000 massive drain

Hey guys
I recently noticed that my i9000 is loosing battery charge significantly (screenie attached)
I have already done the battery calibration & also changed the wifi settings.
Over and above I spun the battery on a table, it spun for about 3 whirls and stopped
So far my battery takes 6 hours to charge fully, and 3 hours to drain completely in idle state
Specs
OS: ICS 4.0.3 AOSP
Modem:XXJVU

ok heres the thing
i cant upgrade to JB 4.3 since the vold.fstab doesnt work (my phone went through Encryption Error phase)
so far tested with the following ROMs
AOSP 4.0.3
Slim ICS + Semaphore Kernel 1.3.0s (currently Installed)
the reason why i found it odd is the phone is draining battery even when switched off completely
Charge time: 6 Hours (100%/ 4121v)
Phone screen off: drains in 3 hours
Phone Completely switched off: still drains in 3 hours
Have you tried CM10 or 10.1?
But hwne it drains when the device is completely switched off, for me it seems that the system doesn`t stop really ...
why should the device consume so much battery when switched off ...
Could you test with CM ???

I think its a ROM issue too cause the battery problem came only after i had a failed attempt at installing JB 4.3 on my device
post which i formatted everytihng from SDcard to system, boot and used Odin to reflash GB then ICS AOSP and Slim ICS through CWM

Galaxy note 5 battery drain solved with ota update ( android m)????

Hi guys
I have question, i rooted my phone ( note 5 ). But i regretful , so flashed official rom again(4 files rom) .now everything is good but i have a big problem. My phone have a lot of battery drain in standby (2 hours =10%) and my android system with android os always stay awake and never go to sleep .now i want ask you if samsung release android 6( marshmallow) for note 5 and i update my phone with OTA to android m , my problem ( battery drain) could be improved or solved??? Pls guidance
Tnx
Change to 2g only
I chenged to 2g but still have same issue. Its a bug , maybe solved with android m
I am experiencing the same thing on a different phone (Alcatel Idol 3). I changed from LTE > HSPA+ and the issue still occurs, just a lot less frequently. I thought that it had to do with reception so I started changing my phone to airplane mode and connecting to WiFi when I went to bed. I thought that solved the issue but I had substantial battery drain less night which proves otherwise. Much less frequent occurrence fwiw but still not 100% resolved

Read post above. It is same for all Exynos7420 that I'm aware of.
I have no idea of Android 6 update will fix your issue.
All I can suggest is to re-root with a kernel patched for the deep-sleep bug. A kernel such as my SkyHigh kernel.

I test on my N920C which is same as yours and no reboot. You just need to read SkyHigh OP and installation instructions. Things won't be spin fed.... Take it or leave it.

Follow these steps to stop idle high drain.
On your GPS and select only wifi and Mobile network and off GPS.
Than go into lock and security and other security and than device administration and off all. It might save high idling drain. And syc should be off so that it can't auto syc. Android beam, nfc all other are also at off.

Root with stock ROM is very much liveable for me after applying the deep sleep fix (working perfectly for me):
Deep Sleep Fix - APK
I was having no deep sleep after root, applied this fix & am now getting ~75% deep sleep.
If you don't want to go the APK way, you can meddle with the system yourself (haven't tried this myself though):

Precisely, deep sleep does help a lot with battery drain on stock, rooted ROM, see the fix above.

I need your help. I have problems with my N910T, it makes dias Dr Ketan install the rom rom based on 6.0.1, I did as I was in 5.1.1, turn off my Note all night and the next day had dropped about 20% load.

Now I install official 6.0.1 rom stock, I proceed to install NobleRom V3 which is very good rom and also reoccurs me the same battery drain while my note is off all night. Thanks in advance for your opinions and suggestions.

6.0.1 rom Stock no complaints, but the battery drain problem is when I'm in custom rom 6.0.1. 5.1.1 custom rom in me does not happen that problem
