Ever since I rooted and installed custom roms on my device, the phone would sometimes have a black screen and become unresponsive. The only way to use it is to perform a reset by pressing volume down + power button.
When I go to have a look at the battery history, it shows a gap in the time the phone was non responsive, suggesting it was turned off. However, the battery level also is much less and you can see a downward slope in the battery chart. I have attached a screenshot of the battery chart.
Because of this problem, I reflashed stock Rom and also Sky high kernel to solve deep sleep problem. But I still am getting the sleep of death.
I noticed it tends to come after I use the GPS (Google Maps).
Current config:
Stock rom
Sky high kernal
Twrp
Any help is much appreciated.

Hi guys,
I'm having problems with battery like everybody else.
I'm not a n00b about this and I have no crazy apps installed (I'll attach the list of apps I have)
My rotation sensor is off,
AutoBrightness is off,
HSDPA is turned off,
UMTS is turned off,
EDGE is always on and AutoSync is always on.
I have only 1 widget running that is Battery Monitor Widget.
Using SpeedMod K13C 500Hz with no tweaks applied and no lagfixes applied, I'm having huge battery drain randomly, most probably when I switch network connections wifi-edge-wifi-edge.
Here's my RomKitchen log file
http://romkitchen.org/logs/VgOonoWjJx.txt
Here's my installed apps list
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1339016/SGSInstalledApps.txt
Here's a screenshot from my last battery graph (this rom is installed almost 20 days ago)

As you can see, my battery instantly dropped by huge amount.
All I did was wake up the phone,
toggle Wifi ON,
open Skype,
login, call a contact for 3 minutes,
logout Skype,
toggle wifi off.
What I want to know is, if Wifi driver patch needed with this setup? Will it make any difference? Maybe it was not my wifi but my screen?
I desperately need advice on this.
Thanks guys.
Uninstall Skype and test it. Its running even when logged out and eating too much battery. Have tested it withhero and system panels monitor. ..
The battery draining that much all at once strikes me as very odd.
Off the cuff that seems like a reporting error to me. Try recalibrating the battery a few times the old fashioned way (drain fully, charge to 100 while off, wipe batt stats, rinse, repeat) and see if it happens again.
Good luck.
Thought about trying totally stock for while I tried different kernells and found I still go back to stock best ive had is js5 getting around 45 hours on stock against charging twice aday with modded phone

Calibrating battery and freezing skype with titanium backup seem to fix problem.

Hello everyone!
So i am having a problem with my N7000.I flashed it to JB with stock ROM the german version of it from this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2241106
I had JB before i flashed it with this ROM but i used KIES to update my N7000.I had that problem since i updated via KIES.
So let's start:
1.I am having a very fast battery drain,here is a pic showing that for only 2 and a half hours my phone is down to 73%.

}
2.The battery indicator is misleading.IDK how to describe it so here is a pic:
Now the thing here is that The green battery bottle when it is 100% it indicates as the bottle is completely green.Now on the n7100 and the S3 and S2 when the battery reaches 90% the green goes down by one line,as for me it goes down at 94%,so i don't see why does it do this.
PS:After flashing my phone i did a full Factory Data Reset.My phone was never rooted or modified.I would really like to see why is this battery indicator misleading.
Thanks everyone in advance .Hope i will get some help here.
Anyone?
80+ views and no one can help?Seriously....
Beacause its not a problem. Maybe?
The battery drain is quite normal specially if the first or second charge-discharge cycle of a newly flashed Rom..
The indicator is quite normal also.. but you can change that on systemUi.apk editing.. or just flash a custom theme..
<<<The CRACKS on my NOTE shows how often it KISSES the FLOOR>>>
Battery indicator is ok, but fast draining its not normal. Try to make factory reset again, this stock rom is scrab.
He has more than an hour of screen on time for 27% of batt...
Estimatedly if you multiply that to 4 times it will give MORE THAN 4 HOURS SCREEN ON TIME which is decent enough..
<<<The CRACKS on my NOTE shows how often it KISSES the FLOOR>>>
The stock battery indicator considers the entire icon to represent 100%.
If you don't fancy that, there are numerous mods in the Themes and Apps section that allow you to customise your battery indicator.
My MotoG 2014 with Lollipop 5.0.2 is unrooted, I have read other threads about this problem: I've installed Lollipop on it from brand new phone.
The scenario is still that there is no way to track down who is draining the battery on unrooted Lollipop? :crying:
I have Google position on, wifi on, bt off, 2 sim with one active for data.
Yesterday the phone lied on a table for about 11 hours before taking the following screenshot, I may have used it (in that 11hrs) for less that one hour not continuously

How can I find the responsible app? Should I start powering off Google position?
Try to reset your device ..! This should fix it..! And that's not a huge drain in my opinion because WiFi , 3g , and auto sync is on always so its Normal 11 hrs standby and still some juice is remaining that's great actually..! ☺

If with reset you mean Factory Reset, I will leave that as last because restoring an unrooted phone is a pain (to be polite! )...
Right now I've followed the (few) steps for unrooted phone from http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/guide-how-to-best-battery-life-moto-g-t3049970
configured localisation as "Battery Save"
removed "my face" from Smart Lock
installed Greenify and hibernated (manually... ) a few app
I cannot leave the phone in standby for long time now, I will see on next weekend!
BTW: from my point of view 80% used in 11 hrs standby is not great...
The above steps didn't change a lot the battery drain...
With "App of the Day" I got Battery Booster, actually I'm using it only to its statistics: I do not know how much I can trust them but so far the only apps that are using battery even when the phone is in StandBy are:
System UI
MotoCare
I can understand the first, but what about MotoCare?? Is it a vital component? Can I safely disable it?
I do have only Motorola Alert activated and running, but I can disable it! Both Assist and Migrate are disabled.
Can anyone help? I just got my Nexus 6 a few days ago and have already had a lot of problems. Battery draining fast, randomly turning off, phone battery "dying" at 45% etc. I heard the Franco kernel could fix this so I flashed it via fast boot (storage wasn't mounted in recovery so I couldn't do it that way. But in any case the fast boot flash went through and the battery started draining normally so I thought all was good. I even took a screenshot just in case.

That was until my phone randomly turned off and when I turned it back on the battery was draining super fast again so I checked kernel and here is what I believe is the stock kernel reverted back on its own
I don't know what causes this but it's happened twice and not sure how else to proceed.

When I got my N6 about 19 months ago the battery life was not enough for a day.
I got a better battery life as follows.
a. Deleted apps I hardly use.
b. Switch apps to use black/dark themes. Use layers with dark themes.
c. Deleted apps with only a white background.
Replaced f.i. Gmail by Aquamail.
At this moment I use the lite stock rom MOB30m of Danvdh. Prerooted and debloated.
I suggest to start with flashing this ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3059493/
I signed up for the Android N beta and updated, that seems to have fixed the draining problem but not the battery dying at 50% . Any ideas how to fix that? Or do I need a new battery?

Sounds like a calibration issue. Google that and try and see if that helps.
I've had my SM-T810 (Tab S2 9.7, wifi) for four or five years now. A year ago, half of the screen began flashing brightly if I tried to use it on low brightness. To solve this, I turned up the brightness a bit and used the app Darker.
Over the last few weeks, things got much much worse. The tablet required more and more brightness to avoid flashing, it would stutter when playing videos, and responsiveness was slow. Every so often it would lose WiFi connection when my other devices didn't have trouble connecting.
Today, there has been some type of catastrophic failure. I was watching a video, when suddenly the video stuttered, froze, and the tablet became completely unresponsive. None of the buttons worked at all. It would not turn off. After about 15 minutes, the screen began its old flashing routine...and then something new happened: the flickering was joined by colorful lines, and about five minutes later the tablet shut itself off. It had become quite warm around the volume rocker/card slot area.I can't turn it back on, but if I plug it in, it shows the battery percentage. The tablet has never gotten wet, and it hasn't been dropped recently. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

Is the battery indicator dimmer than normal? Normally I would just assume at least the screen is bad, but since the charging indicator seems to work? Perhaps you should try download mode? Odin over fresh firmware? (You will lose data on the tablet though)
No, the battery indicator doesn't seem dim. I'll have to try your suggestions. I'm starting to think the motherboard is bad, and that would help me determine if it is or not.

Maybe some files in EMMC corrupted? Then if ODIN works it might get it back to life.
