Hello guys, I know the CyanogenMod for Galaxy Ace doesn't is official, but, works good, I recommend, but... I'm stay with a very boring problem, on the batery. My percentage it seems that is not synchronized, and the battery ends fast, but have one the problem. Suppose my battery is in use by 90% and a short time and then drops to 80% and is a long way, and then falls back again, but when he gets 20%, it is to leave an hour or two between 20 % and 10%.
Someone else goes through this?
I was installed my Cyano by this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1263292
First the battery indicator sucks on Ace, on stock roms it too don't work very well. Second, have you try to calibrate you battery?
Well... I have phone on saturday... Ah! I'm not have the stock.
How I can calibrate my battery?

i had similiar problem. cm 7, battery drop from 100% to 90 % in few seconds of use. And 20 % last sooooo long. oh and i forget to mention that i have calibrated battery so it didn t help. on stock rom i didn t notice this problem. ok, it can suck either, however it isnt as bad as it was on cm7.
Are you waiting when you battery is charged to 100% or disconnect it from charger? I must wait some time when battery is 100% charged (let you phone on charger), I think on lookscreen you will get an information that you battery is full. Second are you using CM 7.1 or CM 7.2? I fell CM 7.2 is pretty bater in battery saving then CM 7.1. Using now CM 7.2 form Axel RC1.
I've calibred my phone, but doesn't effects. CyanogenMod 7.2? How can I install this version of Android 2.3.4 ~ 2.3.7 on my Galaxy Ace? I'm using the Cyano 7.1 RC1 Cooper KANG with kernel Ketut.
I can find it in "Development section"
Thanks, but I've installed. I'm recharging my phone, too late I'm gonna back to here and comment about this mod, anyway, this ROM are perfect. I had 90MB free, now I had 110MB free, it's fantastic.

Yeah, about that. I myself have noticed a little bug with that too. It sometimes say 100% charged without it being charged. Don't know if its the faulty meter or the actual battery. Either way, I let it charge for a while after it says that and it works.

I am partially agree with gradonnn here. Please everyone read my this observation carefully. I observed it on 3 Galaxy ace (all non-rooted with stock ROM, 2.3.4) (One was mine and other 2 are friends' phones, all 3 of us observed the same.)
With the stock ROM I installed battery percentage indicator and charging from 20% to 100% on widget indicator showed in about ~90 minutes of charging. & everytime, It showed 100% I disconnected assuming my mobile was fully charged. But then It started to drain after some use and stopped at some particular point say 83 or 78 percentage. First I thought my battery was bad, so I got replaced from samsung service centre. But again, second battery was doing the same.
Then, I googled about it and came to know a good battery of SGA (or any other smartphone) takes nearly 3 hours to charge from very low (say 5%) to full (100%). Now, when charging on the stock ROM showed 100% (in notification bar from Battery Indicator Pro & Battery Percentage Widget on main screen) the mobile was still charging and almost after 1 hour notification used to come with notification sound that "Battery is 100% charged!". I observed same thing with 2 other ace of friends. "THAT" notification was final to consider that mobile was 100% charged and after disconnecting, it didn't drain faster in any indicator.
I am also using CyanogenMod and the problem with this ROM is, the last notification of status bar doesn't come even after nearly 4 hours of charge! (believe or not, but I did wait for that notification sound many times!). & Just 90 minutes of charge the indicator starts showing 100% same as stock ROM did. From last 2 days, I charged exactly 1 hour more after it showed 100% and believe me, after disconnecting your charger battery won't drain fast.
Now, if you're asking whether I have used calibration tools, yes I did with above observations already. & I used Juice Defender, display brightness at the most min level setting offers, GSM line only, Wi-Fi was on hardly 1 hour in 1 day, and ~40 mins of gaming. With these settings/use and stock ROM my battery was down to 50% max at the end of day.. BUT, with CyanogenMod, it gets down to ~20% at 7PM in evening. I believe CM eats more battery, but observing the speed & facilities it gives, it is the best custom ROM for me.

That is because the notification is not a feature of cyanogenmod, but is of Samsung.
Battery percentage is inaccurate in the Ace. Charge your phone on a stock rom and when it reaches 100% the notification won't come either. It'll have to continue charging for another half hour or so then the notification comes.
So same thing with cyanogenmod, charge longer even if it shows 100%.

That's what I said in the first place.. (Plz read my post again )
On the stock ROM, even if after 100% battery indication, I had to charge ~1 more hour until the notification came. My CM 7.1 did never notify me even after 4 hours of charge.. (which is more than 1 hour longer than stock ROM) That's what I said too.
BTW, Does your (or here anyone's) CyanogenMod give out notification of 100% battery charge?
Hey guys, i fell that resolve, but, i'm testing. If resolves, too late I share.
"This is by design. Your phone will slow down and eventually stop pulling charge at or slightly greater than ~95% regardless of what your battery indicator says. This is to extend the overall life of the battery, as constant 100% to 0% charge/discharge cycles will cause it to fail prematurely." from Nexus S FAQ thread

Is anyone else having issues with this phone loosing around 20% to 30 % after a restart. It doesn't happen everytime but sometimes when the phone is turned off and on the battery drops from, for example , 50% to 30%. I had this issue with official roms and unofficial roms.
Hi mali019, this happen to me as well, i'm not sure this is cause by the battery itself or the phone itself. My phone will auto restart when the battery usage is @ 4x percent. After itself restarting. The battery will drop to 33 percent every time. I'm swapping a battery with a fren of mine and started testing today. I'm using KG6 roms.
never had that problem...
Do you guys quit apps or just press the home button? Use the in-built task manager, it's good.
I don't use taskmanagers. Only use the one that comes with the phone. This problem happend on every rom i tried. From 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 . I'm gonna buy the new 2000mah and see if it happens again.
Just now i pulled out the battery without turning the phone off and battery percentage dropped from 41% to 22% . Currently I'm using KG6

The problem is not an app using the battery. The problem is the phone loosing 20-30 % percent battery after a restart. The phone is not displaying the correct battery percentage.
I even had the battery percentage increasing after a restart without being pluged in to a power point. For example I'll restart the phone for any reason with a battery percentage off 50%. After the restart the battery percentage will show 23%. Sometimes the percentage will increase like its on charge. It will go up to 30%.
Never had this problem better get checked the battery in Samsung service center
Said that because it happened to me that if the phone gets hot, percentage drops. Later, it returns to a higher percentage.
I was experiencing the auto restart and instant battery drain issue while using ninphetamine 2.1.x
After changing to other kernel. No more auto restart nor instant battery drain issue.
You might need to a battery calibration.
I got a new battery ( Perks of working at a phone shop ) hopefully it will fix the issue
I also notice that it takes quit some% after each restart but not 20%. Actually the battery was good when I first got this phone. But after 175 apps installed, battery isn't good anymore.

Today I left my phone in my room and after an hour I wanted to check my emails before going to bed the screen did not turn on so even after a long press on the power button, so I removed the battery (it was ice cold) after replugging it booted and voila there was a huge drop 50 percent perhaps? So I said to myself, I think I left a resource intensive app running and forgot about it and went to bed without plugging the charger, 3 hours later I wake up thinking it would give me a critical or charge your phone dialog, but instead I have a battery that charges itself ...
Now in reality that would be cool but i think there is a problem. Using the ninphetamine 2.0.4 kernel for a few days for bln but it was disabled, stock rom.
I have attached two screenshots one taken right after and the other one 3 hours or so after.
I don't think that I would need a recalibration after a few charges the phone is not a week old.

I experienced same problem - I was browsing, then phone restarts itself and the battery is instantly on 18% (from 50%).
And then started to recharge itself.
Stock 2.3.4 ROM (version XWKH4), running the same configuration for nearly two months now, with only few restarts (once in 20 days), no new app installed recently.
Maybe some glitch in internal electronic?
Same problem, just a bit more drastic. My phone seems to freeze, in which I have to manually restart it. And then I see the battery falls sharply. This is on stock Firmware (unrooted) too.
So I have just flashed the CM7 ICS Themed BETA, wiping everything.
I then charged to 100 percent, and used Battery Calibration app.
I have just setup some apps, and I have lost 10% battery life in 40 minutes
Display is using 85% battery life apparently.
Please help?
It can take up to a week to fully calibrate the battery. Since the battery doesn't have memory the phone has to get a feel for how much juice it actually has. Try it for a few days running the battery down and then charging it to full without unplugging. If that doesn't work you might want to try charging all the way then reflashing and immediately do a calibration.

Yeah, I'd calibrate the battery - wouldn't hurt.
Ideally always flash on a 100 % full battery to avoid problems like yours..

Cheers guys I've taken this all on board.
I'm on 13hrs on battery, its showing 16pc. Battery calibration app shows 3609mv however. This doesn't seem right to me. Am I correct in assuming the phones battery power is the mv listed and no battery is more like 100mv??
Could anyone explain the 'mv' term to me?
Is 0mv when it powers down? Is this indicative of power?
Thanks.
Lithium ion batteries never fully discharge. If they did the battery would not recharge again.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
mv referers to mV, as in Milivolt. Most li-ion batteries are rated at 3.7V or 3700mV. A nominal full charge should be around 4.2V or 4200mV.

That's 35 minutes of active use. 10% isn't outside the realm of the possible.
I usually can go a full day on 60% battery, but this morning Facebook, the interwebs and text messaging put me from 100% to 77% in the course of 30 minutes. Draining 10% in 45 minutes does not seem out of the realm of possibility
I get mine to last around 20-26 hrs on a single charge, of course depending on use. but i hardly leave the house and dont use it a whole lot. One thing to make sure of is setting up profiles on SetCPU and/or undervolting. i just posted my setup on another thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20284361&postcount=28
so after you clicked the battery calibration button and it said calibration successful, you're wondering why the battery is dropping so fast under use right away?
Easy answer my friend, when you first use the battery calibration app, the first cycle (when phone is being used) will always drain a lot faster than the 2nd and 3rd time around.
The battery calibration app, wipes the battery stats, and makes a new one, however that does take at least 1 - 2 times of a full charge/discharge of the battery. There is a battery tread in the atrix general forum i believe for cailbration steps, etc to go about successfully doing a complete calibration when flashing from rom to rom.
Hope this helped
Hmm, maybe I am just upset that I have to charge every night.
Coming from a BlackBerry 9780 I could go 2 days with semi-heavy use.
I am now using the official Motorola cable, and only charging from very low to full.
Thank you for the advice.

thanks for the update
I agree, 10% loss in 40 minutes of active usage is not bad. If the OP had better battery life before he flashed to new ICS themed CM7 beta rom, maybe the new rom is to blame??? I'd OC/UV, possibly with the latest faux123 kernel.

Thanks for the tip!!!
Good day fellow XDA members. I am currently running an unofficial Cyanogenmod ROM for my Huawei Ideos x3 u8510. So far, I love it! I have already calibrated my battery after flashing the ROM, by charging to 100%, using Battery Calibration from Play Store, letting it drain to 0% and charging it to full nonstop. My situation is the following, my battery still drains after I have calibrated it, (I did it yesterday), when I use the phone. If I don't use it, 1 or 2% drains aprox. every hour or hour and a half. After investigating here and other pages, some say that after calibrating your battery you have to let the ROM settle it after a few days, that way it's life gets better or "more accurate". Ok, I now need patience. My second situation is this, I want to know some of the BEST possible ways to save battery on Cyanogenmod, as battery lasted longer on my Stock ROM. Here are my descriptions:
-Use wireless networks when necessary,
-Brightness all the way down.
-Every basic thing I know.
Ok, those are the basics, but what are the best CPU settings to have the best battery life and at the same time have a fast phone? Here are my current settings:
-Governor: ONDEMAND
-Min CPU: 245 mhz
-Max CPU: 600 mhz
-Compache RAM usage: Disabled.
-Use JIT: Checked
-Enable surface dithering: Unchecked.
-Use 16 bit transparency: Checked
-Scrolling cache: Default enable
-Allow purging of assets: Unchecked
-Disable boot animation: Unchecked
-Lock home in memory: Unchecked
-Lock messaging app in memory: Unchecked.
My current kernel: 2-6-35.7-perf
[email protected]#1
So, can anybody suggest me the best settings to save battery life and have a good to great perfomance? Please answer, there have been 2 forums I already asked, but no one has answered.
Seriously? No one?

Thanks for your answer, but I forgot to mention something. My battery drains like 1 or 2% every 5 minutes when I use the phone. I wanted to know what SETTINGS or suggestions are best for battery life saving in CM 7.2.
By the way, I flashed a new ROM yesterday, it's very complete! The thing is, when I was charging my battery on the outlet, the indicator showed 89% of battery charged. After that, no more than 30 seconds passed and my phone was charged! Weird huh? So, I left my phone charging for 5 more minutes and then, the indicator showed 89% again with the charger connected! What I did was download Battery Calibration via Play Store, charged to 100%, eliminated batterystats.bin via this apk, and I think my indicator got "fixed".
My question is this, do I really need to recalibrate my battery or what I did was enough? I ask since I read battery calibration is a myth. Is this true? Or do I really need to calibrate it after flashing a new ROM?
Please answer!

cpu settings are subjective for every device i guess. i using vsel formula to calculate it. frequency/20 + 2. and do stability test to make sure the settings are stable.
may i know CM 7.2 from which build? last time i using cm 7.2 fuzz, i had to replace battd file for battery to indicate properly.
i had no idea about the myth because im not expert. batterystats.bin reset itself if you unplugged your device when it full charged.
my suggestion, use for a few cycle and see if any improvement.:good:

Actually, it's an unoffcial ROM I found, but it hasn't been the only one that makes my battery drain. Basically, it's been all custom ROMs I have tried out. I'll take your tip, thanks! :good:
hello everyone!, i have a serious battery problems:
1. battery charging takes min 8 hrs!!
2. battery Discharges very very fast
i changed battery and charger and it still the same...
BUT notice that when the phone is off - charging takes 1-2 hrs
i dont know what its the problem, can someone help? thanks.
Have the same flash boeffla kernel and increase the charging of your charger and your battery will load very fast
Device: Samsung Galaxy S3
ROM: CyanogenMod 11 (Temasek Unofficial V36 )
Kernel: Boeffla-Kernel-CM11-2.1-Beta9-
1-2 hours is normal for a charge, actually its very decent. Run full charges only. Charge ONLY when battery is less than 20% and charge continuously till 100%. Check you battery usage. If you have bluetooth, wifi, 3g and whatnot on all the time your battery life will be bad and will take longer to charge.
Search the web there are many more specific solutions.
Specify if you are on stock rom and kernel.
Edit: I would NOT increase charging current. It will decrease your battery life in long run.

Lower screen brightness If you are gaming then there is hardly any solution for that. As the post before says, install better battery stats so we can help you further. Also sometimes other things draining battery may come under one name such as 'screen'. Its not new.
Hii everyone
I've got some really weird Battery Issues on different Lollipop Roms (CM12, ResurrectionRemix 5.3.5-5.3.7, Beanstalk and SlimLP).
The problem is, as soon as i restart the phone the battery percentage drops from 50% to 13% for no reason.
If i charge the phone later suddendly the loose percentage are back, but the phone consumption more "battery" so it's sooner at 0% as normal.
Does anybody else faceing this problem? Or whats the solution?
(Tried several times to calibrate the battery, and it's a new one ca. 6 months old)

I've had these problems when I first bought my phone used off eBay. Phone battery was very erratic. After a reboot battery would be less than half or nearly 0 even with 80%+ battery. Or would shut down with 5% left. Or drain battery a lot quicker than normal.
Soon as I bought a new battery my problems vanished. My battery would stay solid no matter how many times I flashed a new ROM or rebooted. BUT after 3 months these drops have started to happen again with reboots. Not always like before, but they're happening.
I think it's down to battery conditioning. The way you charge and discharge your battery. There are set ways to charge a phone to maintain battery health.
How does your battery react without rebooting from a full change to shut down? You shouldn't need to reboot a phone with a good stable ROM once you've set it up the way you like it. Also calibrating you battery or wiping your fuel gauge meter to often isn't good practice as android and your phone will do calibrating itself after some time and needs the information that these starts provide.
Battery jumps seem to happen with a lot of S2 users. Maybe a flaw in the design of phone. But good battery practices are important, things like not leaving your phone charging overnight. Batteries don't like being left on charge when they are full. There's more info out there on XDA that I can't remember myself as I am guilty of bad battery practices as I use my phone all the time and don't have time to full charge cycle.
Yes same problem
Battery drains really fast when restarting
Any fix for this?
I am hiving battery problems too. Battery is dropping % like it leaking or sth. Last time my phone rebooted due to full ram and it dropped from 50% to 12%. I left it like that. After some time battery re-charged itself from 12 to 23 % ! Phone was lying on the sofa without connected charger ! Should i clen fuel guage chip or my battery is EOL ?

you have to reboot for example if you install xposed and new modules i've calibrated the battery just 3 times i think this isnt too much?
and i understand the problem with charging overnight but there's no other solution for me :/
I have the same problem of battery drain with SlimLP beta 5, here my screenshot: shoplc.altervista.org/gallery/

Hello, your situation is much more serious than mine. I reinstalled the original ROM jelly beam 4.1.2 because I can not charge the smartphone every 5 hours.

...of course, now my battery lasts 15-18 hours
When it developed a ROM that overcomes these problems of battery life, I'll be happy to try it.

Forgot to say, if you want to avoid battery drops when rebooting make sure you plug your phone into charge before rebooting. Thus should stop battery dropping afterwards.

The battery often drops when the phone hangs at work and reboot from itself so i have no chance to plug it in.
I have same problem, battery drain too fast & after reboot same time battery level is "falling" at one moment twice. At first, I think it's a battery problem, but battery work fine at CM12 mod, and have problem at SLIMLP 5.1.1 mod. When battery "falling" it's not heating, which means no real discharge.
