Battery Lifetime

Good Morning folks,
as some of you are already proud owners of a LG2x, I would like to know how the battery lifetime really is. Are you guys satisfied? How intensive are you using your device?
It would be nice, if you can describe what you are running, like wifi, gps and so on... pretty sure you know what to write to give me and the others a clear view on the battery lifetime ;-)
cheers,
Manuel

Yesterday I got the phone.
On very very very hard use it took me about 7 hours for the phone to be 0%. That is kinda good in my eyes.
Today I'm doing normal use, to see how the battery goes.
I withnised 100% tot around 60% went kinda fast, but from 60% till 0% took a while
So stay tuned for the today test.

I got the phone the day before yesterday started charging it. Then in the afternoon it was fully charged and i started to play around with it. It did good but then today i had it fully charged overnight and now - at around 15:00 it dropped below 15%! I hadn't been using it for other than a few calls, a few texts and less than 10 minutes fooling around.
Something is up - i don't know what, but the battery info shows most battery usage was drained due to cell standby and mobile standby...
I don't know what really caused this Other than that i love this phone, i just hope i find the reason for this insane drain soon - i tried rebooting and even installed advanced task killer

Hello, I cant really help much on the battery issue other than to say give it a few more cycles before getting too upset.
The last new battery I had in my iPhone took a week to really settle down.
I would uninstall advanced task killer as I believe it has issues with froyo and is not really needed.

Ok thanks - i think i will then

had the phone 2 days now, and feel like the battery drains fairly fast, had a BB before this and im not used to having to charge everyday. Will se how it goes the next couple of days.

Ok, it seems a lot of people already got their device. Is there someone who could try to unload (by heavy use or something else) and reload the battery again and again to get a feeling of the behavior after some loads?
Thanks!
Update: I have an update from a German guy for you who claims to found out that the service "nvrm_daemon" is the one which consumes the most power. Anyone an idea what it is? The "nv" in the name sounds like nvidia...

nvrm has something to do with the NVIDIA kernel module.

Yes, it seems related to Tegra.
I googled and found this little quote about the offending service on a site dealing with the Toshiba AC100 that also use the Tegra 2 chipset:
it makes suspend, sound and cpu frequency scaling work

Isnt it coz that dual core isnt supported very well in 2.2?
Should be fixed in 2.3.

hey xmoo, how come your always one of the first having such nice devices? if i remember right you had the hd2 pretty fast as well back in okt. 2009.
i wanna have it toooo

48 hours.
Way better than the Nexus One. Not much more I can say.
Most importantly, not much more I will say on battery. It's too subjective and circumstance specific.

I should be clear - I do not mean +48 hours battery, I mean I have used the phone for only 48 hours... This includes charging.
But still, much better than my Nexus One. At the same time with the same apps and usage I have 40% and on my Nexus I would have 15%.
We all still need some days (~1 week) for the battery to settle.

Dunno, I think I got the good connections
I have noticed how longer the device works, the battery gets better.
Today from 8 till 17:00 my batter cme from 100% to 69%.
I mailed, whatsapped and texted a lot and 1 small phone call.

okay in Eindhoven its in stock at a mobilephone shop. i seriously thought about to drive to the shop ... its about 260km from Paderborn
but lg said three days ago the 2x will be available end of next week. so now its up to amazon and its time to say goodbye to htc ... im really curious about the lg 2x
@xmoo thanks for your impressions of battery life. i was a little afraid of power consumption because of the dual core but that sounds fair

hi, 72 hours with the Optimus 2x and i have the same problem with the battery, it drains so fast!! with few use from 7am till 17pm 100%-32% !!! but i think today is better..
here in Antwerp,Belgium there is in stock at pdashop and gsmwijzer
kind regards

hi ~~ just want to ans. the owner of 2X ....
is your handset "Made In Korea" ??

Ok i'm doing a real-life test atm after a few charging cycles.
What did I do/ have I on?
Have I on: Everything (gps, data, wifi (if possible),...)
What did I do: Some gaming, few youtube movies, few short calls, watching mails, some internet browsing, send a few texts.
I'm using the app : Juicedefender in combination with ultimatejuice (this prolonged my battery 2.14x!!!
How long? : Atm i'm using my cell (from full charge) for 44 hours and I still have 39% left! This means that i could get it to run for 3 days on 1 charge!
Note: this is after doing a few cycles, out-of-the-box use gets you the day around!

Best or ideal kernel settings for best battery life with good performance?

The title explains it all—I'm wondering what the best kernel settings are to achieve the best battery life without completely dropping performance. I've never tweaked the kernel on any phone I've owned before, so I have no idea what those settings might be. I currently get around 5-6 hours of SOT, which is great for heavy usage but with a battery those huge we should expect way more.

I'm currently playing around with majorly under clocking the CPU (Currently testing at 1.2 GHz) and have yet to notice a difference in performance. I'll update with battery improvements if any arise.

im on zzmove with profile 6, run only 2 core at 2.4Ghz and every thing seem good
phone run cool and great in game(framerate still good and more stable since no throttling at all, before that with stock, my phone get hot and lag if i play asphat for long) not sure about battery yet but seem good

Try computerfreak ROM, i'm getting 77 hrs on battery and 6 SOT!

Oops just now noticed I had replies.
I'm currently running Resurrection Remix and I seem to be getting better battery life than I was on stock, which is odd; however, I wish to get more. Update me on those kernel settings.
Also I noticed that when I'm at school the cellular signal drains my battery considerably. The signal there is poor, is there any way I can minimize the drainage?

That's a ridiculously easy thing to do, I can't believe I didn't think of this. However, its rather inconvenient. Any other ways? I heard back in 4.4.4 that there was a way to disable certain bands or something to consume less power when you have bad signal.

Well i was on 4.4.4 was really bad didnt know how too fix it.. try to get greenify if ur rooted currently havent charged my phone in like 2 days its kinda hard too kill the battery sometimes

I'm on rr and honestly I'm not getting the best battery. Like 3.5 hour on screen time. It does still make it through the day though. I changed the kernel settings to conservative under cpu, which helped a lot from previously getting under 3.

Settings, configs, performance tuning, kernal tweaks, then in the app in the cpu tab, the cpu governor option. That's where I found it and I turned it down and I'm getting better battery.

That's odd. I get considerable better battery life on RR than I did on stock. I've hit 5.5 and even 6 hours of SOT with heavy to medium use (when I'm not at school at least).

Same here, but I noticed it lasts much longer with Greenify and Amplify installed with Xposed. I lose about 2-3% during standby mode during the night....whereas before I lost about 10-15% even while on RR.

Just got 7HR and 4 mins screen on time with in 2 days didnt use my phone at school only when i was at home so i guess 7hr's is good..
EDIT: i am on stock ROM

That sounds right about what stock should be getting for some users. It's good to reference stock with your personal use versus someone else.
1 hour of a playing a game with full brightness will use significantly more battery than an hour of book reading on night move although they both technically have the same screen on time.

I usually consistently got about 5 hours and 30 minutes of screen on time on stock with medium to heavy usage at school and at home.
On Resurrection Remix, I usually get 5 or sometimes 5 and a half or 6 hours, with heavy usage at home. On school days, I can only manage to get around 3, which I find incredibly odd. I chalk it up to the poor signal at my school draining my battery.

You can get 48 hrs on the Turbo. You can also get 5 hrs. Like I said before, it all depends on your personal usage. Perhaps they have a baseline test they do on every phone so there's no variable aside from battery.

the battery life

What really is up with Android phone and their battery life. This been bugging me for like forever and its 4:00 AM and i have to post.
Like my sister had s7 edge and just the general messenger apps IG, WhatsApp, telegram & Weechat. Rest are game for toddler. But all the time the phone been with her, her average SOT is like four hours and the BATTERY KEEPS ON DRAINING on Wi-Fi or Data and NEVER flats out. It only does when in airplane mode. Before you guys days uninstall the games, in the battery usage graph same with GSAMbattery, Android system is like up all the time. So it has to do with Android OS.
is Android really just like this? Do iPhones person better?
I have EXACTLY the same issue with my nexus 6 rooted. When my wifi is up, none stop drain and BBS doesn't show any unusual activity.
What going on guys?

With 4 hours screen on time that is about what you can expect. Mainly when using things like weechat which is notorious for uploading all it data over and over again to its servers in China. Then you have whatsapp which is done by facebook which are known for some of the worst coded apps for battery drain in the market.
Your biggest issue is the screen on time. $ hours is a bit ruff on a device. As the screen is the biggest thing to take up battery. Unlike the iphone which uses a less intense screen due to its lower quality res.

Bro, you should use an iPhone and see! It's much worse than Android. iPhone have less size batteries and you can hardly get through the entire day with one charge according to your usage. Although apple's implementation of background apps optimization is excellent, but still the battery life is less due to small batteries. I feel android is much better in terms of battery.

Totally agree.
You can add that android is still an open system which allows you to hard modify the system, apps behavior, etc.. So you can set your device especially for your daily use.
For example, the way I set my 2yo-phone gives me 8 to 10 hours SOT, which is faaaar from any Apple devices autonomy..

No it's really mostly just the screen being on. You can test this by setting the device screen to never time out and let it sit. You will notice that it kills the battery.

If Weechat and Whatsapp were responsible for the drains, why don't they show up on battery usage as top drainers?
It's always Android System

That is generic which means apps system api or systems the app uses. Like say the LG tones app. It uses the system BT api and if it drains the battery then all you see is BT at the top.

After years of trial with all sorts of applications to kill apps, battery /juice saves, my ultimate solution on Samsung alpha, 1800amph only battery is conjuction of Greenify, follow up with SD Maid. Alternate day.
Excellent results. I'm rooted.

I'd say that you either have a battery that is past it's useful life, or you have some serious wakelocks going on. 2-2.5 hours SOT is awful. I bought my device used 9 months ago and can easily average 6-8 hours SOT over the course of 48 hours on battery (on stock 7.0 unrooted). I'm only now seeing a lower SOT with this current update to Google Play Services. And even now I still get 5-6 hours SOT in 48 hours.

I know the reason for my bad battery life. It's my signal. Signal here is spotty and if you leave town you lose signal all together. So my device spends most of the day looking for a stronger signal. SOT really doesn't mean much to me.

Yeah I normally keep late off. It doesn't help really. Signal is just too spotty. You can bounce between 2g,3g and lte in 5 min and never move. Then you have the times when the military blocks all GPS and unless you heard the announcement and turned GPS off that would also kill your battery. Then like I said once you leave town you have no signal for hundreds of miles.

How is 6-8 hours sot possible over 48 hours? I've tried different kernels, lineage/CyanogenMod, Pure Nexus, greenify, and even tried down clocking the CPU to 1.2 GHz or less at all times (shockingly, in normal use I couldn't tell the difference lol). Never got that much screen on time. I'm not even sure airplane mode would do that. My best was around 45 hours, but with about 3 hours of screen on time. And that was with the phone being less than 3 months old.
Currently I'm on stock Android, and getting 20 hours at best with 3 hours sot. At this point, I will say my battery is shot since it is a year old. But I'd love to see your settings and see if I could get close.

Here are screenshots of my battery use from March. 3 days with 6.5 hours SOT. I keep my screen at a relative 20% or so (lower at night). I have very strong signal (major city) And I use wifi about 65-70% of the time. I also actively moderate my screen touches (yes, they do indeed matter). I turn off NFC and I don't use BT. I also actively purge misbehaving apps (I refuse to install some, like Facebook) Other than this, I can't really say. Perhaps, I just lucked out and got a cherry of a system (with the exception of my headphone jack not working with mics...Grrr... and my camera's image stabilization Causing blur at certain shutter speeds)

Screen on time leaderboard - post your longest SOT

Hi all,
As the title suggests, please post your screen shots of your max SOT and I'll update the leaderboard with the top 10.
I'll post my max to set it off, bare in mind please, this is only for normal usage not for leaving your phone plugged in all day with reading mode on, this is only for real world usage.
Averages are about 8 hours on the OnePlus 5 but some average a lot higher, myself I normally get between 8-10 hours however on occasion (usually when on the internet researching ) I'll crank up some crazy SOT, my highest being what I'll post below.
***NOTE***
To qualify, post your battery meter showing depletion and a long screen grab of your stats from the stock battery monitor, also post your ROM and version as well as your kernel and version, as i'll show below.
No cheating.
If you want to drop your BBS stat file then please feel free although it's not needed to register your SOT score. Personally i don't give two hoots about this, it's complete overkill so don't feel obliged to record it.

Well sir, that is stupidly good.
Well played.
Have to say I've got the p20 pro with a 4,000Mah battery, can't come close to the 1+5.
That being said, I completely believe you but without proper proof it's a little hollow..
I'll put you up for now but will need a repeat.
What ROM, kernel??

How do you guys manage to get such high SOT? Talking specifically to @dladz, have you selected anything in particular while installing xXx like those features in AROMA to enhance battery?

No not really, i've not got this phone anymore i've just sold it but the settings are pretty much stock.
Turn off gestures, live widgets.
i only have one page on the pixel launcher.
No apps with ads in them, 1 gmail account nothing else, no facebook, no viber / skype / work email / snap chat
I only use whatsapp and twitter now and again.
4G, Wifi, location i always leave on.
No google photos, no automatic updates, no bloat unless what i need.
Auto brightness on, Stock kernel, No xposed, Black theme.
No antivirus, no back up facility, tweaked google to not collect so much data, deny most apps location unless required.
No overclocks or underclocks, no CPU / GPU governor client.
basically just lighten the load as much as possible, bare in mind that i don't always get 14 hours, i mean that's insane, i was doing a lot of reading online that day and it just clocked up the hours, i was amazed when it went past 10 hours with around 20-30% left.
Your battery is going to depend on your usage and your apps.

What are you using now? I bought a pixel 2 xl and had to return it to the original seller. The pixel 2 xl software is amazing but the hardware is trash. Build quality isnt worth that premium price everyone paid for when it first released.

It's in my signature, the P20 Pro, it's a pretty special device tbh.
Camera, battery, screen, performance is all amazing.
The only problem is the development lol it's a little light on ROMs, although the stock image once you're rooted is actually very good, I can change any aspect of the ROM and I'm completely fine with it
The only problem I've got is with the variants (models) available in the world, there's so many of them and lastly Huawei have decided to stop allowing bootloader unlocking which for many is a deal breaker, it hasn't happened yet but it will in the coming weeks
As I've already unlocked mine its ok.
My colleague in work has the pixel 2 which he loves, camera is excellent, plus I'm guessing the development scene is pretty strong, I'm not a fan of their design though.

I'm on OnePlus 5, OxygenOS Open Beta 11, Magisk 16.4 (1642) and Franco Kernel version r29 - all flashed subsequently and through the latest twrp-3.2.1-0-20180414-codeworkx-cheeseburger recovery.

Yep, it's not bad, just sold my 1+5 on Swappa for $340, tbh it's in great condition it's been my favourite phone up til now by some way, the only thing that ever bugged me was the lack of OIS which when you go back to a phone that has it like the p20 pro and even my previous device (HTC 10) you realise how important it really is.
Beyond that the OnePlus 5 is for me still their best device, reason being is the battery Vs screen size /Res, the 5T had a higher resolution and larger, the 6 I think even higher and even larger, yet the battery is the same so the SOT's you're seeing here just won't be possible, not even close.
I know the 845 is meant to be even more efficient but it's not going to be enough to compete here, unfortunately.

Ah glad you found something you like. As much as I like my OnePlus 5 I feel like I need an upgrade as well. It's a solid phone in my honest opinion. I'm looking into the V30! I've heard a lot of positive input about it (except for the FFC). I don't take selfies much so that might not be deal break for me.

I've never had an LG phone, but i've seen my colleagues disappointment after the novelty of the camera wore off, it's the UI it's just not great tbh.
But it's up to you man

Oh well, compared to you guys 11 hours I didn't get all that high but still very impressed as i did use Google Maps navigation for quite a while and YouTube for 5 hours.. It managed 7 hours and 58 minutes with 4% left. Could easily go 8h+.
This is done on stock latest AEX (Aosp Extended) with a amoled friendly theme .

SoT and Charging Rate

Hey there guys! I'm creating this discussion for y'all to post the stuff mentioned in the title. These things are crucial to making decisions when choosing roms, realising bugs in updates or apps etc(or even choosing the phone itself). Also please do mention your ROM, kernal version, build number and any other relevant info that would make comparisons ( and conclusions) more fair ( and accurate).
P.S : screenshots of battery chart and activity are quite helpful too :good:

Today it took 3 hours and 25 minutes for my phone to charge from 5% to 100% percent. Is that bad or good? Or is it just okay?
Stock locked bootloader with .339

For my phone, 3 hours 25 min seems okay. When the phone is new it only takes around 2.5 hours to charge. Nowadays, I take me anywhere from 3.5 to 5 hour to charge. Not sure whether it is due to some apps in my phone or the charger that I use is not good enough. I am still okay with it since I usually charge the phone once every few days.

This for almost min usage (kinda between moderate and min usage). In stock, non root, build .339 greenify with adb permissions

Stock not rooted

Looks kinda complicated..... Maybe stock battery setting SS will be more useful

Hmm looks good.... But is there a bit of unusual idle drain going on ? Or maybe it's just me
Heres my latest with specs same as yours

5ish hours is a bit too much. Is it on the stock charger and cable?

Yes I use stock and the cable is a bit loose from the pin side, don't know why it takes this much to charge? Help needed!
