Just a week ago i brought a new Samsung galaxy Ace S5830...this is my first Android mobile..overall Speed,Internet is Awesome.But the problem is with battery..
In a day Max to Max for half hour i use Facebook..and lets say 1 hour for Surfing Net..and in a day 2-3 calls of upto 5 minute Max.But still my battery usage details are below
This are my battery usage detail:
Cell Standby - 49%
Phone Idle - 68%
Display - 36%
With this kind of battery usage even after charging Full battery still it somehow manages to work for only 3 hrs Max!!!
i tried to clear Ram Memory bt still no use after clearing ram the battery usage details reduces my some % but strange thing is even if i dont connect to internet still this value again increases from 30 to 70%..
i had also used "NoBars Battery Saver" app but still no change..
tried to Enter this Code *#*#4636#*#* But after i Enter this Code i choosed to Tun off Radio option..but this Stopped me from making calls and receving..so i had to again Turn on Cell Radio button.
So all i want to know is is there any app or any working code.. to Disable Cell radio and improve my battery life or Shall i go for new battery of Lion 1500 mAh
I think you should use juice defender... Use it in customized mode & disable the schedule part in it... Also keep the brightness to its lowest...
One more thing in location & security settings disable the first 2 options... This should solve your problem to quite an extent.. If not then you have go to samsung service centre...

Nothing personal man, just ITS MY OPINION. I used it only ONCE and dont like it by my self. SORRY!
I just want keep my phone clean (less apps, doing something, then you get less PROBLEMS) and install ONLY needed apps. You can MOSTLY configure your phone options from PHONE MENU it self. Just look them precisely and you be GOOD(of course not ALL options, but most of them, what you need).
CHEERS!
Juice Defender is of no use didn't stop battery draining just consumes space.
To save ur battery
*Lower ur display brightness (very imp)
*Upgrade to 2.3.3 + Rom
*Turn off wifi and b/t when not in use
* Turn off wifi locator
*Root It
*Stop backgorunds app (kill autoruns)
It will save ur battery as much as it can but sga battery is very poor as its 1350mAH :|

I think the apn widget is the manual version of juice defender.
Juice defender switches off the connectivity automatically when you lock the screen where as you hav to do manually in case of apn widget.

Firstly You don't have to say sorry for expressing your opinion.
I know that I can configure the settings manually instead of using juice defender. But it does it automatically & it takes only few kbs of memory. So I can afford that much of memory & save time.
But thats my opinion!!

I use mostly my phone even more(sometimes 8-10 hours[listen radio at work or music]) and oftenly(not always)I charge the battery every evening. But if it in standby, then it can take freely 3 days.

Obviously it all depends on what you've done while the screen was turned on but it'd be an interesting statistic.
Overall battery:
26hrs on stock rom 1.8.3
16hrs on gingerblur 3.1
Both with more than 3:30hrs of display on
About 24hrs on battery with 4hr15min with the display on. I think I have a screenshot on FB, lol.
I might be on to something here then..
Am using GladiAtrix 3 b0.2, before I installed it I did a battery stats reset through CWM
(advise from KennethPenn, dev of Gingerblur):
"""- Reset battery in CWM (under Advanced)
- Drain your battery to 0 percent and let it turn the phone off, then charge it back up to 100%."""
On my phone are more than 120 apps installed. Battery Manager is on "Maximum ".
The result is fairly amazing; the display time of almost 7 hrs is under heavy use; wlan & sync constantly on, Xscope & XDA app non-stop checking, market downloads, etc!! I have never had such good battery!
I advise everyone to do the above, it really helps.

That's right, only 2g unless I need 3g for data. I'm always around a wifi though.
No task manager, android 2.2 does all that automatically.
Not sure battery manager is so aggressive, I think it takes a bit longer than 15 minutes.

6hrs is my personal best, straight stock phone.
I've just put mine on charge, prob got about 40-50 hours, mostly standby. Seems a lot but I just unpacked my charger from going away for the weekend.
Prob about 4 hours talk time, prob 3 hours web. No GPS, no wifi.
Strange thing is, the battery thing said '5 hours since unplugged' which is definately not the case, is this a known issue? 5 hours since I rebooted it maybe.
when you reboot - the time since unplugged counter is reset.
Is there a way to do the battery stats reset without CWM?

a little off topic but howd you get that 1% battery mod and not the ugly circle, this looks kinda nice sitting at 33%, can one get that without gingerblur , stock plus root would do?
on topic, i get about 2 days on a medium usage on my battery , 1.5 days on heavy, i dont think i could use another phone after getting this much battery life, i just wonder what gingerbread would do to this phone
5 1/2 hours, with 3G turned on. Although the last 45 minutes of that it was just sitting at the launcher, I was waiting for the battery to die on it. I usually average 2-3 hours, but when I charge my phone I usually still have about 50% left.
Seeing as I rarely use data, I may have to try that 2G trick. Maybe I could charge it every other day instead of each night.
My best "Screen On" time is close to 4.5 hrs running Greyblur. For those just posting "time since unplugged"..screen on time is a much better indicator for battery life imo because it means actual use. The phone sitting idle in your pocket or on your table for 48 hrs is misleading to some people because then they wonder why they're only getting 12hrs with 5hrs of actual "useage" (screen on time).
For my style of use..battery saver modes and apps don't do me any favors because then I miss out on my IM's which I rely on for most of my communication. And unfortunately 2G isn't an option any more for most of us Canadian users..as 2G has been pretty much phased out.

With you on that, I keep asking people to post screen usage time (also in other threads); anything else is fairly misleading on how long the battery lasts.

Hi Everyone,
I am disappointed with the battery of Optimus One.
My Battery in Standby (GPS/Wi-fi/3g/Sync/Screen, ALL OFF and without USE ), does not last even 20 hours.
I have an application that shows what application is consuming more battery power and the "phone in standby mode" takes up 95%!
What are your experiences with this battery?
Mine has problems?
Thx
I bought it one week ago and the battery last one day with no problem (and it's not at its full "potential" since is new). When did you buy the phone?
I bought it 2 weeks ago
Using a custom rom you won't be disappointed with your battery no more...
I have openOptimus Rom with Franco kernel 15. I am at 85% battery after 14 hours. The phone has been pretty much idle.
Only 2G networks
Data disabled
Wi-fi on
Auto-sync on
Overclocked 480/729 interactive (interactive may not be optimal)
I'm using franco kernel v15.1 with devoid.franco, i'll try do update do devoid.froyo.final today.

Hi, what is data disabled? and how to put only 2g networks?
20 hours on idling? Send it back for repair/replace. Mine will last days if left idling (about 1% every two hours)
When I travel I turn all data connections off (Bluetooth, wifi, gps, data) and it lasts about 3days

Here are some potential things to turn off that might make the battery last longer. They are all in the settings app. I do not do all these since I find that some things might make the battery last longer but reduce the usefulness of the phone.
Setting/Display/Brightness
Setting/wireless & networks/wi-fi off
Setting/wireless & networks/bluetooth off*
Setting/wireless & networks/mobile networks/use only 2G networks*
Setting/wireless & networks/mobile networks/data enabled off* (I have this turned off all the time as I do not have a data plan.)
The items * I have off unless I am actively using them. I also overclock my Optimus. I think that this probably gives me a longer battery life, since it is running at 480 when I am not using it. I suppose if I was desperate, I would undercloack the phone (min 480 and max 480).
What version of Android are you running? 2.2 or 2.2.1/2.2.2?
When you click on Cell Standby, how much Time Without Signal does it show?
follow these steps and i think ull have what you want..
go to battery use and click on cell standby : then see time without signal. how much does it show ? if its above even one percent (unless uve mannually put ur device in airplane mode) i know the problem.
go to settings >wireless & network settings > mobile network > mark 2G only (if u are not using 3G) cause the cell might spen loads of battery searching for 3G.. then go to network operators and search for (mannually) and select ur own network provider.. like mine is airtel.. then let your battery run down totally.. completly to zero. then recharge your phone to full without any break.. this is called recaliberation. then see how much your battery lasts..
remember to turn off bletooth, wifi, internet, all ! while the phone is idle and you wont be using it for sometime. or, if you wont be doing or getting any calls or sms, consider switching to airplane mode..
you might be getting less battery if ur in a area with weak signal strength.. this makes the phone go wilder to search for signal. in these conditions, switch to airplane mode if you can . thatll save a lot of battery. and also during night if you want to.
dont hesitate to click the thanx if i helped !
EDIT: and ya every thing that the person after me 'Y.u.v.i' said.. though those are normal things and brightness level is most important..
and about francos kernel, ive had many f/c s with mik's cm7 beta 6.2.5 ..i prefer its own kernel , though dunno for other roms.. u might wanna try it.. ill try myself too..
yes ..few step here u can try
1.reduce ur brightness level to minimum ...
2. use 2g signal only.
3. turn off all extra connection like wi-fi , Bluetooth, auto sync , data.
4. use advance task killer and set it to auto kill app aftr every 30 mints.
5.automatic screen time to 30 sec.
6.if u r using custom ROM use Franco 15.1 kernal . and wipe battery after charging it up-to 100%
use thanks if u like my post ...
I did all the tips posted here. Let us now see what happens

Click to expand...

I'm using 2.2
7% without signal.
Sorry for the dumb question (about 2.2 or 2.2.x) - I didn't read the first page carefully enough.
Try this: reboot, then enable airplane mode, lock your screen and leave it like that for about a minute, unlock screen, disable airplane mode.
Are you still seeing Time Without Signal? (of course, after a few hours, not straight away)
EDIT:
DON'T do any of the following:
- reduce brightness to 1%... come on, be serious! you really like squinting at the screen? screen brightness doesn't affect battery life that much anyway...
- don't use task killers! it doesn't matter if you have little RAM - it's there to be used. I will not go into details about this (there's whole threads about it), but trust me!
You could also try monitoring your apps with https://market.android.com/details?id=com.zomut.watchdoglite&feature=search_result and see if any of them start behaving wildly and keep your CPU awake.
Another thing would be to try Nessy Hypnos2... I had great battery life when using that ROM! If you're still experiencing the same battery drain with a fresh install of Hypnos, then I'm sorry to tell you but you'll probably have to send your phone for repairs.
I ended up recharging the phone two hours ago and it is at 91%.
Was 9% in 2 Hours - 4,5% per Hour. Very Bad...
...with nothing in use.
Only 2g networks
wi-fi/dates/sync/bluetooth ( ALL OFF )
Screen OFF (black, with -0% of brigth, because he is OFF)
I install Battery Monitor Widget that estimates my uses of battery in:
18h52m of Discharge (100->0%)
and 5h of charg in USB and 3h of charge inc AC.
I'm installing watchdog now, to see if have an App draining battery.
EDIT:
But I do not think that's because I have an application that shows the the CPU clock in%.
480MHz = 80%
729Mh = 20% or less
and another that shows the applications that consume battery
and Cell Standby = 90%

I got the same. My phone is also on the same settings, same rom, same kernel. Battery life was awesome some days ago, but now I experience average battery drain, I think I need to callibrate my phone as well. :/ I will do it probably after flashing void.final.
Does JuiceDefender Ultimate actually helps to reduce battery? As I'm using Miracle V4 and play games abit and the battery drains
No. Save your money. It messed up my phone and took a lot of energy for itself. Search for battery tutorial instead. There are few apps which help u to analyse which apps consume most batterylife. Or buy new battery for 7 €
Sent with Galaxy ACE
not really. its for lazy people who constantly forgot to turn off bluetooth, wifi etc. all what it does can be done manually.
some say it actually uses more battery as it closes cached (not running) apps which are then forced to reload when called - consuming more CPU - Hence - More battery!

Yep i confirm that. And if not setup properly it causes problems e.g not waking up data connection. After i deinstalled i didnt even get Data connection

According to the app I extended my battery life with x1.3 but I didnt really feel any difference. Removed the app cause of the ram usage primarily.
The app is really good
Customize everything on your own
It would help a lot
And get the ultimate version and use the advance configuration
Everything is explained perfectly
READ!!!
Be Kind everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle
I just use Autostarts so that apps that run on background will just be disabled in the first place.
Better to just configure stuff yourself. Its free and doesnt cause conflicts that could arise from enabling stuff that juice defender disables. I used juice defender free at first when i didnt know anything about battery and it helped a lot. Then I tried it again when i learnt enough about what drains battery and had my phone configured, this time juice defender was worthless and actually increased battery consumption.

believe me if u know that bluetooth , wifi , GPRS/EDGE use battery and is not a lazy asss. u dont need to waste ur precious money on such battery and RAM hogger...
whats the use if automatically switches to airplane mode at night and one day at 3 am there is someone calling u for emergency and alas ur phone is on airplane mode...
it runs in background eats up ur RAM and BATTERY TOO....
if u are on a custom rom.... just push down the notification and use the 14 toggles mod... y waste precious bucks for just 3 click???
IMP: if u constantly use ur [hone .. juice defender cant do a ****.... its only useful if u just switch on ur phone 2 times in 3 hrs...
In my experience it saves me about 3 hours of battery a day. So yeah, I think it is worth it.
I'm using premium instead of ultimate by the way.

Same, Plus user here. When I used the stock ROM, the battery life was impressive with it. But when I switched to a custom one, the difference was little to none. Even when I leave my phone screen switched off when not using, it would last a max of 3-4 days before I've to recharge.
There are definitely some issues with JD ultimate.
Battery drained out completely overnight when I don't have any schedule running, not sure what ate the battery frm 36% to 0. I am regretting that I paid money for this app when it didn't work as advertised.
Dear Brothers & Sisters,
My new Xperia Sola's battery drop 5% per hour without any use. 3G data is on, but background data is off (as i have started the power save mode).
Background running app only facebook and whatapps, is it normal that battery drop 5% per hour with screen off ?
Thanks!
doesnt matter if backdround data is off, facebook WILL try to update the timeline in the cycle you've set it to. so yea pretty normal to me as the sola doesnt have a huge battery.
Same problem here too!
Even if you don't use your phone still the battery drops almost at a constant rate of 4% to 6% and that is very annoying. Hoping Sony would fix this issue with their next OS update.
But sola users have an extreme advantage of fast charging. Sola charges itself about 12% in hardly 10mins. Thats the better part
Sent from my MT27i
Hey guys,
5% an hour is 20 hours. to me that is pretty dam good. i used to get about 16 - 18 out of my arc S. with everything on.
Your Data connection is a mega killer weather or not you have background data on or not. it is the connection to the tower that drains the battery.
my arc is now just a phone for work and without the 3g on I get over a week out of it.
we all need to remember that these phones are not like the old nokia's and stuff. modern phones need modern charging habits
Pvy.
You shoud deactivate LiveWare widgets and services because it consumes a huge amount of power. Sometimes I get even +48 hours of standby on my Xperia U.
Try this out! It worked for me!
Okay! I fiddled with my phone a bit to improve battery life and it did work!
Go to settings> Applications> running
check the applications using a lot of RAM and has been using the phones active state for long time. Delete those useless apps. Also apps which connect to the internet uselessly consume a lot of battery!
It worked for me! Now my phone discharges just about 2-3% in 6 hours. Its because earlier my phone wasnt going into deep sleep mode where it consumes the least battery!
Now its battery standby has boosted up a lot!.
I'm happy now!
Try and tell me whether it worked for you guys or not!
Yeah. Disable Bravia display, reduce brightness, switch off data and WiFi, kill useless running background apps, disable widgets. I lose 2% battery in 6 hours in standby mode. I do these before sleeping and its damn effective. Also root ur phone n install autokiller memory optimizer and set aggressive values. This enhances phone speed and also battery is improved

I always suggest that users turn on extended standby mode but some people want their whatsapp or email to come through instantly all the time which I can understand but it's a real life saver for me, I personally don't have a massive issue with my battery, lasts a whole day, sometimes less if I use the phone heavily.

The autobrightness is on, and nfc and bluetooth are always off (since i don't use em)...I need my e-mails, and Whatsapp is not even installed on my phone..turning 3g off or enabling the extended standby mode is like ... hmmm, i carry a 4 inch useless device around ... (

Your emails would come as soon as you turned on your device anyway could you screenshot your battery usage please?
i don't know how to take screenshots
i understand that the e-mails arrive as soon as i turn the phone on, but this is not ok...it will become a habit to look at the phone ....
Very easy to do, hold volume down and the power button

I think there is also a problem with reading the actual battery level (hopefully not hardware). The other day mine dropped from 15% to 0% in 10 seconds. This has happened a few times before when the battery gets around that level.

i have to root the device and to be honest, i am sick of it ...
attached screenshots...bare in mind that 3 hours the phone was on 2G and the display was as dark as possible (unable to see anything in the day light)
You could use clockwork recovery to erase the battery stats as well. I don't think you need root for it.
You charge to 100%, reboot into recovery erase battery stats, unplug and boot normal. After that you let it drain on its own until dead.
I've read that sometimes it worked after the second calibration or something but i believe it might be user error.
I erase the stats every time I flash a new rom. ...
I am now on 2.3.7. ... Maybe is better

Battery stats doesn't do anything: http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...-battery-stats-does-not-improve-battery-life/
That is, it essentially holds the information displayed in the Settings > Battery screen. Nothing more, nothing less. Thus:
It has no impact on the current battery level shown to you.
It has no impact on your battery life.

I would advise you to update your phone to the latest firmware, it has better battery management... If you are rooted, you can try custom kernel like ThP or Sliding_XP and custom Rom based on stock... I used to get only 10-12 hours of battery life in 2.3.7 before rooting.. The steps I took to improve battery life are:
1) Root the phone, add init.d and build.prop tweaks or install a Rom that has tweaks like Brain_ICS or XPT's Vision Roms.
2) Use any custom kernel based on stock that are tweaked to give better performance and battery life, along with above Roms
3) Switch off WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC when not in use. Or better, use NFC tags to switch settings (like WiFi on only at home, Bluetooth on only in car)
4) Keep the brightness to the minimum setting when indoors and keep it in auto brightness when outdoors.
5) I live in an area which has better 2g coverage. In network settings, if you set the network mode to select only gsm, battery life vastly improves as there is no searching and switching for a 3g connection. Also I find that staying in 2g gives better network clarity. I shift to 3g when I require high speed browsing only.
6) I usually keep data connected with auto sync on and extended standby mode on. If you switch off extended standby off, you can last through the day but only if you reduce the amount of apps syncing and the polling time of each app. In my case, I have switched off syncing for Twitter, facebook, Google+ etc and sync only for Google contacts, calender and Gmail.
7) I also have automated the phone to switch to airplane mode from midnight to early morning.
By the time I get home from work, I have at least 40% battery remaining. On the whole, I get 22hours on average and I have got 1day 12 hours maximum from my Xperia P. And happy with my choice.

Forgot two things:
I keep all location services switched off and turn it on only when required. This prevents the Map app from unnecessarily polling for location and helps save battery.
And sorry for such a long post. There won't be a tldr.

Just had this weird experience, battery was on 1 percent then I rebooted my phone using power button and volume up, then my battery shot up to 28 percent

that was android normal problem....thats why developer making phone by using high capacity battery (motorola razr maxx) . By using 3000mAh battery also just give certain phone for 2 days (using galaxy note 2). Android jelly bean suck battery juice faster because of its f***** project butter (uses cpu and gpu at the same time). Now phone developer starts frustrated on android...hehe (from my speculation)
Android problem how?
Almost all smartphones last about 1 day. Don't blame the Operating System it's the same battery life in all smartphones. Blame the battery technology.
