I too found that Maps was eating away on my battery so i just froze it in Titanium Backup and have seen a noticeable increase in battery life.
There's an insane amount of bloatware packaged with the S2, and for some reason they have certain programs running all the time, eating away at your battery.
As suggested above, freeze it with Titanium. And if you haven't already, check out the APK List [search for it], which will help you decide what bloatware to uninstall, if you haven't already.
Sorry four my ignorance but I need to be rooted right? Cools you give a noob a nice tutorial to root the phone?

From this screenshot everything seems normal. Your batterie is almost full, so from this point of view it's normal that it eats up 14% of the total.

Read, read, and then read some more, before you do anything. Try and make sure everything is in order before you go through with the process.
Good luck :]

Why would out be normal to eat up 14% of my battery if out isn't even on?

Ok! Rooted in about 10 seconds eheh. Bought titanium pro and froze maps. Uninstalled crappy samsung bloatware and hopefully tomorrow i'll see a battery improvement. Thanks again for all the help.
You're most welcome. Glad to hear everything went well.
Turn off wireless networks location tracking and Maps' battery use will go down.
Also folks in case you haven't seen this,highly recommended.

Because you say this:

And so far as I can tell your batterie is almost full. The 14% is relative, it is based on the amount of juize already used. Based only on this screenshot I don't see a problem.
If you never had maps opened and running in the first place then that's a different situation then the one your prescribed.

It's most likely Latitude. I was seeing similarly inexplicable Maps use until I signed out of the sack of kack Latitude app. Hugely improved battery life!

Hello everyone!
I just thought I'd share this app I found from somewhere(forgot correct me if anyone found the source)

Smartphones keep getting faster, better and slicker. One part of the device that’s having trouble keeping up is the battery. Many state-of-the-art smartphones have trouble making it through a single day on a charge, much less two or three days like the simple Nokia phones of yore. But can anything be done about this, short of buying an extra battery? JuiceDefender for Android says the answer is yes.
Before we begin, one note. The link above leads to JuiceDefender’s beta version. LaterDroid, the developer, normally offers a free version on the Android Market. However, at the moment they’re having some trouble with the market, and have asked me to link to the Beta version instead. It’s free and quite stable.
When I started the app, the first thing I noticed was the unique look-and-feel of the interface:
Many say Android’s lack of UI guidelines is bad, but this is one app that uses its creative freedom to good effect. The interface blends copious amounts of explanations along with the buttons, in a way that feels natural and uncluttered. As you can see above, it starts off disabled by default, so tap that “enabled” button to get started.
What JuiceDefender essentially does is disable some of your device’s functions at times you’re not likely to notice, thus saving you some precious power. For instance, if you’re not connected to a WiFi network, JuiceDefender will simply disable your device’s WiFi radio. Once fifteen minutes elapse, JuiceDefender will enable the radio again, check for a connection, and if there’s still no connection, it will shut it off again. So you no longer have to remember to toggle WiFi off when you leave the house or the office.
Yeah, but Juice Defender has to have a service running always in order for its smart switching to work, wouldn't this drain a lot of battery? In the end is battery really saved?

I've asked some people who used this application.They said that after using it their smartphones' battery seems to last longer..I'm actually confused about using an app to save battery since it service always running in background.But it is their own opinion,I'm just sharing mine..
For me, DxBattery Booster is surely a better app than JuiceDefender. Tried out both, and ended in uninstalling JD. Dx's auto-cleanups and the interfaces are unique and life-saving.
In my friend's Galaxy Ace, it could make a 1% battery to last for more than four hours, on idle. In mine too, it worked wonders.

[Q] Screen battery drain. It seems that my battery is being sucked down by the screen. I've done my research for two days, but no avail. Does anyone know how to fix this, and what the heck is going on!?

Its complex. I actually don't know what I did. All I can tell you is to factory reset, go to clockwork mod, he usual if your going to install a new rom, except this time clear battery stats. Then when you restore. Restore each app one by one, and check battery as you do it (to see if it affects). Then you can enjoy yourself. See if that helps you...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using xda premium
what most people don't understand is those numbers (the percentages) will always all add up to 100%. It's a percentage of the current battery life that has drained. The screen is the biggest usage as that's what it was during this cycle.
So you have 63% battery life left so 73% of the drainage from 100% to 63% is due to the screen...get it?

Hi guys, I wanted to know if, with this rom + kernel combination, my battery is good and, possibly, to know which applications kill it.
So I have to go on settings/about phone/battery use, right? And how can I see which apps kill the battery? Because here I see only cell standby, phone idle and display...And how can I know if these percentages are too high? thanks
Basically, the apps that kill android's battery are the ones which have wakelocks."Battery use" in settings won't help you see what apps aren't letting the phone to go to deep sleep, but you can see how much time your phone didn't sleep.You can use betterbatery status to see what apps are sucking your battery life.Example:facebook xD

Exactly. Pretty much any social networking app, eg Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, etc, that runs in the background even after being "killed" will eat up your battery.
Thanks everyone
Probably I'm the only person all over the world which doesn't use facebook or any other social network, so I can be relaxed
I've download it but I don't understand
Is there a good souls who could explaun me how it works?

You don't actually use it. You mostly read and interpret the data it stores on what uses the most battery life and then you act if you want on those processes.
The app begins to store data as soon as you unplug your phone so the best way to see how it works first hand is to let it run a day or as long as it takes for the battery to go down (I have heard of some o1 users that need to recharge their phone after 3-4 days of use) and just change the first roll down option. You'll figure out what uses the most battery.
Hi guys,
I recently updated to JB using HSD Pilot's update package, and everything passed fine. I experienced battery drain before and i tought it will be better for a week or two. But that didn't happen.. Is threre a way to make battery life better with some kernel or smthng like that, or with custom rom (I saved root)... I am a GSM user... Just look at the screenshots, my battery life is LAME!!
Thaanks!!

14 Hours use. 62% left. 2 hours screen on time. 70% w/ auto brightness.
That would easily put me at 30 hours use with 4 hours+ screen on time. That works for me.
