Hey guys for some reason my battery is being hammered, I've got trillian running cus I like to be signed in all times but I'm using battery saver mode and push to email
I have launcher pro widgets on half hour refresh I've amended that to 1hr and plume every half hour.
Screen is on automatic and im using gmail for email
At work I had 98% didn't use it % (in my pocket) 2 hours later I'm on 69%?
Is it trillian hammering me? I used to love being signed in all the time on blackberry so would like a similar solution
Thanks

check the battery saving mode under the settings on trillian.
I think there were some apps that were running. You can go tothe navigation: setting/application/battery use to see them. The another way, you try factory data to clean everything which you installed.
In the other hand, new battery is unstable. It needs about 2 weeks
Good luck

Look at your battery stats.. Sounds like something is keeping the phone awake.
As a general rule the phone should only very rarely be "awake" when the screen is off.. If it's on alot then start trying to troubleshoot the various apps.. Although trillian is definitely where i would start.
Yeah id say it be trillian, its a battery drainer program as its uses constant internet connection
I'm still calibrating my battery (it's been on 0% for half an hour and it's still hanging on for dear life with the screen on constantly!) but I have trillion so I'll check it out on next charge

If you are out and about turn off WiFi, it's a battery drainer.
Turned trillian off, still losing battery

I get pretty bad battery life. I wiped everything and reflashed the ROM and only installed about 10 apps instead of my usual 150 or so. Total difference in battery life! Except I want want my apps back, at least most of them.
I'm wondering if there's a way of finding out which ones take the most juice or are always running when I don't want them to do I can get rid of those few.

Try "Wheres My Droid Power"
Could also try "Watchdog", I have used it a few times, good app. It also lets you know if one app is misbehaving and using too many resources.
Or system panel. I use its monitor and it will tell you how much power each app is using. You have to get the paid version to get that feature but its a good app. I'm sure there are other free apps that do the same like the ones mentioned above.
BetterBatteryStats, best there is

+1 for watchdog
Android's built in battery use monitor will tell you what's using battery. I guess it varies based on which ROM you use.
+2 for watchdog

I use the paid version to help support the developer, but there is a lite verson though.

is there anything out there better than BetterBatteryStats of Power Tutor?
Does anyone have a suggestion or experience with any mods or kernels that gave them a better battery life?? Mine hasnt seemed to change from having it stock or with jokers roms on it. Does anyone have any ideas how to make it last longer??
We need a battery viagra.

I use the cyanogen data toggle or data toggle widget from the market to turn off 3G when I'm not using it and it makes a HUGE different in my battery life.

Hello! I usually get about 2 hours of screen on time on my GS3. After doing some research, i found out that 2 hours is not very good...so I have some questions. Take into account that I have tried to minimalise the us on my GS3 and also watched battery tips and tricks videos and even flashed bestMultitasking fix already.
Is there someway to improve my battery life?
While making this thread, my battery dropped from 36 to 34, using wifi and power saving on...also, my signal is full, so it's not a problem from cellular reception
get checkup of your battery and apart from that also goto settings>battery and see how which activity uses the most battery

It seems that Android OS is killing some of your battery life, this usually only happens when you flash a custom ROM, Id suggest finding out what is killing your battery, download an app called wakelock detector, itll show whats using what
Also, the Greenify app is amazing, it wont let any app you chose to run unless you click it.
You could try turning on your power saving setting, itll slow the phone right down ( thats why i hate touchwiz ) but itll give you an extra 30 minutes of screen on time
Theres always custom Roms and kernels too, Ive got the Illusion Rom which ate up the battery for a day ( every new ROM does this ) and then applied the Googy Max kernel, Im running on 800 mhz with undervolting and still silky smooth
Also, try disabling Google services/ sync and disable Google now, for some reasons they seem to be the issue in most cases

I've already done the above mentioned. The biggest consumer is Facebook but I have set the notifications to refresh every hour...

This was today's usage...I don't get it. I guess that media server is when I play music through bluetooth in my car. Still, very bad screen on time ...
the factors that affect battery life:
-screen brightness
-bluetooh connection
-wi-fi connection
-gps
-3G/2G connection
-synchronization
-wallpaper
-vibration
Get zerolemon battery i can get 11/12 hours screen on time with juice to spare!
For those of you running stock roms, what are some of the features that hold from switching to AOSP?
Sent from my LG-vs980 using Tapatalk
For me I don't use any feature
I even removed most of LG apps
I hate AOSP Roms so I didn't switch for it

I always asked myself if GRam works with AOSP or not. However From my experience with AOSP roms this past week, I can insure you that it does indeed work! I am amazed by the battery life! Yesterday I got 1.5 days (around 36hrs with 6hrs screen onn i could never do that on stock).
See my current usage now. Attached screenshots.
Edit: for some reason i cannot attach a single screenshot, that is after 11.5hrs on battery.

I read that it's only available on LG Roms but that was just here in the forum, so maybe not the most reliable source. I didn't try aosp yet, but the battery life I get with the Stock Rom is just insane:

Nice battery life! I never went above 4 or 5 hrs screen on stock!
Ok I can see you are running G2 xposed module and you running probably on 400dpi or even less.
Any other things you disabled? Knock on? Smart stay? Location?
Would you please elaborate your settings and usage. Also what is your rom and kernel?
Thx!

Pretty sure that's hardware but I too wonder if there's anything software involved.
As for me, QuickRemote and LG Camera are the only stock features I use.. On AOKP 4.3. Screw that fugly stock rom.

I'm running on stock rom and stock kernel. I have disabled locations for google apps, all other apps including wheather are able to check for locations. I have sync enabled for gmail, facebook, wheather, whatsapp and exchange. As you can see I was on wifi most of the time and a few hours on 2G/3G/H. You are right with that xposed stuff! Currently running at 380dpi. My screen brighness is on auto with a preset of 50%. My usage behaviour is moderate and includes checking facebook, whatsapp, emails and xda app. I also do much browsing and a few benchmarks and camera shots. I don't play games that much. Personally I think that disabling NFC, GPS and bluetooth saves you a lot of battery. Smart Stay is also disabled because I don't really need that and it's keeping the sensors awake all the time. I should also mention that I have a flip cover with Quick Window enabled. I hope this helps you a little bit. Most of the battery drain is caused by unneccesary wakelocks.I can recommend to check these wakelocks with an app called 'wakelock detector'. As you can see, in my case there is only 1% of wakelocks, where others have 10-20% and this is what's causing the high battery drain. It's all about optimisation! If you have further questions please feel free to ask (but rather in the battery thread cause this might become a bit off topic).

Knock-On, Wireless storage, Quick Remote, Clip Tray...
Aptx, gram, quick remote, wireless storage, legit knock on. Ohh yeah, stability.
I used to use clip tray. Loved it. Missing from aosp roms though.
knock on, quick reply, smart screen, quick remote..
until proper replacement app is found, no AOSP for me.
