So i recently flashed the latest 2.3.6 to my phone and have juice defender and around 33 percent screen brightness. It seems my phone drains 1 percent on standby which is fine but when the screen is on it drains 10 percent in 20 minutes. I have auto sync off and low auto brightness. So my question is should i just flash a custom kernel, or revert to a older firmware. Thanks any ideas appreciated.

Hi,
X10 Mini Pro here - the battery only lasts about 16 hours without ANY activity on the phone (only 2G radio on, no calls, no using the display, nothing!). If I check partial wake usage I see Messaging is keeping the phone up the whole time (15 hours out of 16 hours). How do I solve this?
With normal use (calls/browsing/apps etc) it lasts less than 8 hours!
did u find solution pls tell me also same problem
for messaging go to cyanogenmod settings-preformance settings and disable lock messaging app in memory.
then set wifi to never sleep.
my battery life is arond 36 hour (ni data conection only if i recive mms, wifi around 1 hour per day, around 10 calls per day, around 30 sms per day, brightness around 65%,and auto kill apps)
I'm running stock latest 2.1. Messaging today is 8 hours lock wake out of 9 hours. Battery at 50% with NO use!
Did a backup, reinstalled everything through SEUS, then restored. Now back to normal. Just back from 8 hours of work and battery is only down 20%.
my phone gives a backup of more than 2 days......here is how...
for both stock and custom rom.....nd if u have root access....then u shud use SetCpu and Auto killer memory optimiser...set both of them to ondemand and optimum resp. and charge ur phone only when its <10% and avoid disconnecting it until its completely charged....this would improve ur battery backup and lso battery life.....significantly..see if dat works for u guys...
If you have flashed a rom, then you must fully charge the battery, immediately Wipe Battery Stats, then let it full drain and battery would be almost fixed. After full drain, fully charge it. When it says completed pull out battery and put it back and charge. You'll notice that battery level is ~84% even if you fully charge before. After full charge, pull battery out and do the same as mentioned before until you charge phone and battery level is always 100% or 99%.
That would make battery last longer.
And... If you have CM, undervolting saves very muuuuuuuuuuch battery and you should underclock when you are planning not to use phone for some hours... Of course freeing memory is essential, because you kill the apps which use your phone, as a result your battery too!
Good luck! ;-)

Nice im going to try some of the suggestions above
my battery also drains pretty fast!
Hi guys,
I'm using GingerMod v0.3 with the default kernel (ninphetamine 2.1.3).
My battery was at 100% when i went to sleep. After about 8 hours when i woke up, it dropped to 92%. Is that normal?
I have turned off automatic sync as well as gps. Even "Back up my data" and "Automatic restore" was off. Display was at a minimum 3%. Most of the battery % was used up by Android OS.
given the percentage of the draining 8% over 8 hours i quess is pretty good. I quess different rom + kernel produce different effects. Yours is considered ok.
ya the drain is quite normal

1% an hour during sleep mode is considered good? i had the impression that it would only drop 3-4% during sleep.

More than good I'd say. And you never can have a constant rate, one night it will be 3-4%, other night it will be 9-10%, depends on the processes running at that period. If you have Better Battery Stats installed then you will be able to see what had cost that extra drainage under Partial Wakelocks section.
I normally have 3-4% drain in an overnight period of 8-9 hours, but yesterday it was 15%. Then I saw it was Camera360 Ultimate which was running and searching for GPS!
Regards.
That's about similar to what i get on standby with data enabled so yeah good battery there/
Thats good ? Mine drops 1 percent overnight (+-10 hours) with original battery Or stays at 100 until morning when I wake up with 2000mah bat... Data and wifi turned off.
But I presume thats just me being battery friendly user
I tried better battery stats and it seems the Email app is consuming the most resources during sleep. hmm...
Since i'm not allowed to post in the dev section of the Hyperdroid thread i'll ask this here.
I'm running on Hyperdroid 4.4.7 with the latest Ultimate kernel but batterydrain is pretty high.
On 3.x and 4.0 it lasted over 72-80 hours with medium useage, now with the same usage it's on 55% after 12 hours.
I tried emptying the caches and a re-wipe but battery drain stays the same.
Is this normal for the 4.4.7 update?
Thanks

72-80 hours with medium usage? LOL! What's medium usage for you? Also what battery do you have installed?
You can try to delete battery stats and give the phone around 4-5 cycles till the battery recalibrates itself.
Hehe medium usage for me means 32 active apps of which 7 update every 15-60 mins, screen on every 15 mins, fulltime wifi, an hour a day orso bluetooth connection, just normal use i think.
I use the standard battery and i will wipe the battery stats to see how that works.
Maybe i'm just spoiled..

BCOKAS model here on the latest firmware. Just wondering if 1-3% drain is normal in sleep mode in an 8 hour period? If so, I can stop obsessing over the battery.
Also, with normal use browsing the internet, is about 10% drain normal for 1 hour of use at around 20% brightness?
Thanks in advance!
I flashed my SIII with Omega ROM v49 yesterday and noticing high battery drainage.
E..g. It came from 100 % to 85 % in 2h 22m in which i was in a phone call for 25 min and nothing else.
I have my data connection off, power saver on, wifi off most of the time, smart stay off, gps off. Screen was off maximum time.
Yesterday the battery drained in less than 12 hrs.
I use Battery Calibrator to calibrate my battery today too.
Is this a bug with v49? Because I used to have Samsung stock ROM which has a consistent battery for 36 hrs which include 3.5 hrs call time.
Need help here. Is it the problem with the ROM or something might be wrong in the device settings.
