i have the elegant white rom,its awesome low ram consumption speed etc.
BUT first to change stock rom(original from manifacturer)i could play 2 hours and 1/2 sometimes 3 without trouble with battery at 30/35% left now i play 5 mins and my battery goes from 93% to 87% in 5 min
so 6%x12=72%battery lost in 1 hours its bad really bad! i also installed the battery fix but notthing!in idle without playing i lost 2/3% per hours so this is good.
someone have my same trouble? it is normal?if so i should install back stock rom?
if i get stock rom again the battery should be fine?
the elegant rom is on stock 2.3.7 i had 2.3.3 when i bought this phone
sorry for bad english i have not much time
thx everyone
(already done calibration)
to full charge it takes 1 hours max is it normal?

done 2 days ago after let phone shut down and charged until 100%
Roms based on CM7.2 do drain battery massively compared to stock so going back to stock would help.
Battery callibration does not help - see Here
Same problem here... Living with it cuz stock has just become old and lazy
But if you really want battery switch to stock its way better than cm

There isn't a noticeable difference in both versions in terms of battery life. However, 5.7 has better performance and is noticeable.
You can try underclocking to something like 730 MHZ and save a decent amount of battery life without losing performance. Check this OC kernel out:
OC zImage
Also, use Cyanogenmod, ADW launcher without customizations is faster than the stock touch-wiz UI launcher.

For all those who r shouting that battery calibration doesnt improve battery.. Did the XDA said it improves battery life?? Do u ppl know wats the meaning of calibration?? Calibrating means adjusting something to the accurate value.. Not improving the value!! Even we never said it ll improve battery life.. Battery calibration just calibrates the reading to more accuarte one. So let the ppl calibrate it. Else leave. It ll automatically gets adjusted after 1 or 2 week.. U can see urself the change..

Yes, many members on XDA said that callibration improves battery life. The battery indicator on your status bar does not use batterystatus.bin. It does not automatically adjust after 1 week or 2. It re-calibrates every time you charge!
Read the article posted by XDA for more:
google-engineer-debunks-myth-wiping-battery-stats-does-not-improve-battery-life/
well i dont know about you all
but on my phone battery percantage isnt that accurate
cause when i unplug phone from charger and just open game or do something battery percantage goes to like 90%
but when my battery percantage is low like 18% it holds 30mins on 18%
I've tested many roms here and stock rod do tend to have better battery life, but... When i tested the RAZRv3 by TeamCooper, it had extremly good battery life.
When i got my Ace it had froyo, that lasted about 2.5-3 days. I upgraded to gingerbread official, battery lasted about 1.5-2 days on. Then i tried several custom stock roms and they all lasted about 1-2 days.
After that i started testing CM7 (both 7.1 and 7.2) roms and most of them lasted 12-18 hours (i used the wifi disables 3g function and some other tweaks to last the battery longer otherwise those roms would not have been usable)
Then i got to the RAZRv3 i used it for 2 weeks and the battery was amazing, it lasted easily for 3 days with no other tweaks than "wifi disables 3g" and also the performance was good. No lag!
Then i tested the CM7.2byFAT and the battery was awful but i really liked the rom so i keep 3g disabled when i dont use internet (all background apps use 2g internet) and now the battery last for 2 days.
As i've tested.... 3g takes really alot of battery in CM7 roms but in RAZRv3 (cm7.1 based) it worked like a charm.
So.. Everyone who wants really good battery life should test RAZRv3 that can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1478807

A day and a half as in 36 hours? Only 20%!? What is your usage pattern?
I have a friend with RLS5 in a Blade with 60h of battery life... with 23% left battery to use.
I think..LOL 1.4.2 and OpenOptimus are the most durable rom..(sorry for my english)
In this moment devoid.franco.
Or maybe anyone but CyanogenMod 7, that drain my batt 20% in the night
It doesn't really matter as long as you know how to configure it to save as much juice as it can. SetCPU profiles does the most for me. Running slightly modified stock.
i use CM7..for me this rom is good for the battery life..but for anyone is different..I spend about 2 days with one carge..so you can try and decide

That would depend on you ... But I cannot stress this enough ... before writing off a ROM, be sure your battery is calibrated ... that makes a big diff
I was using my own ROM and used to get about 35~40 hours ... 2g always enabled ... fb, twitter, corporate mail, gmail always sync ... chat a lot ... dont play too many games ...
Nw on CM7 by mik_os and get about 30 hours with similar use ... I stick to this as its gingerbread + CM settings ... plus pretty much bug free ... only drawback is divX doesn't work
Definitely not CM7. It's not terrible bad, but compared to the ROM I used before, Void, it was worst. I don't have a huge problem with battery life except for that one night I lost 20% over night standby. The one other ROM I tried was Void and I thought that ROM was overall very good combined with good battery life, but I switched to CM7 just because I liked gingerbread. Compared to other phones CM7 battery life is normal.

Yes it does. I use a stock 2.2.1 and it lasts about 48 hours before going below 25%.
I use it moderately. About 1 hour calling/day. 2-3 hours Wifi/day. Data always on 2G. 3G causes it to last about half the time. Games for about 1 hour/day.
devoid.franco consume 1% of the batt between 10pm and 7am (with all off, overclock 428-729 smartass).
CM7 consume 20% the same hours (all off, 245-600).
Im presently running on Stock rom with devoid.franco kernel v11..Getting great backup. 2 days with some calls, lots of sms, occasional browsing on edge and lots of music. Pretty happy with that.
Nessy is the one that i prefer does much better than the stock rom ever did. i can now use programs like pandora in the car and actually use the phone later

Hi there. I'm using GinTonic.SE v1.3 for 4 days now, and I can get only 30-34h worth of battery life - as long as I have Wi-fi and 3G off. I used to get almost 50h with Froyo CM6.
Has anyone experienced diminished battery life with GinTonic?
Thanks!
Gingerbread are battery drainers, try undervolting (settings/CyanogenMod/performance/cpu). And reduce backlight to minimum
i'm experiencing the same problem, the battery draining is anormal, i've tried with battery calibration but that doesn't resolve the issue, battery goes from 100% to 98 in about 1 minute (data,sync,wifi off and minimal brightness) then straight down... i need to charge the phone 3 times in a day, i had to reflash he cyanogen revolution... any advice?

have you tried the new GT 2.3.8? claims better battery use, i installed yday and it lasted for the day at least..but that was quite minimal use. as stated use either uv.ko or underclock with setcpu, i downloaded app called cpu spy it informs you what speed your proc is running at and u can get a decent reading on when and how long the speed is which helps in set cpu if you set up profiles so i.e when yr battery reaches x% the clockspeed will reduce, and choose a governer like powersave or conservative...it does make quite a difference

Ya and also it depends an kernal, am using Siyah kernal....its gvng gud battery life and smoothness, and much faster.
Om nom nom, battery *burp* But at least it's running on 200MHz and not 1200
Guess I might have to take another look at Siyah, and hope 3 is more stable than 2 was, kept having freezes with that one
After updating from official 2.3.6 XILA3 to 4.0.3 LP3 I expect a huge drop from <30 to about 10 then the phone die completly.
Attached battery graph.
This is the genuine 2000mah battery, and with GB 2.3.6 duration is about 3 days with GPS-3G.
i have migrated to ICS resurrection 1.1 from checkrom and find the battery life is better even though there is more stuff running in memory and more widgets.

After updating to ICS try to switch on data connection, now try to switch on wifi.. it tries for some time and after 10 mins or so.. battery is completely drained out.
Is anyone facing the same problem ???
I haven't had the same experience as you but i have been very happy with Ressurection Remix 1.1. With the standard kernel it comes with.
I get around 1.5 days from a charge..... try it out.
Many talk about the Siyah kernel being good too, it has more options for battery saving/ performance.
Hope you figure it out
Hello every one,
I am facing poor battery life with my x10 mini pro. Even I had my battery replaced recently. But still, the battery life is just about the same.
I tried following things...
1. Turning down the brightness down.
2. Turning off the data, background sync, 3g
3. Uninstalling the apps that runs on background
4. Deleting battery stats after installing new ROM (CM7 2.2.0)
I typically use my phone for 1hour of calls, 30mins of browsing, 1hour music playback, <20mins of gaming. And the battery will be drained in less than 8 hours.
And, another weird thing is, the battery fills up very very fast. It will take like 25mins to get to 100% from <15%.
Please, guide me what to do. This has been a serious head ache for me. Will flashing back to Eclair, Donut will solve the issue?
Thanks.

I am having the exact same problem!
I suggest flashing back to MiniCM7-2.1.9, my battery life was REALLY good on that version. But I updated to v2.2.0 yesterday and now I have the same battery problem as you. The rom does run faster and I also noticed a few bugs fixed, such as the keyboard light, but battery life is just really bad for me.
If u dont use dsp manager then remove it,because many users hve reported that dsp manager drains battery
Install battery dr saver from market
It has option of full cycle charge for charging battery properly

Done that already, still the same. Already know about Battery Dr Saver, but I don't think it helps this problem.
I also installed Badass Battery Monitor, it's really detailed and shows a lot of info. It's showing that the display is using up the most battery, but I have it idle most of the time.........
agree!
at least someone or two has same problem with me.
i just flashed cm7 2.2.0 over these 2 weeks.
well i noticed the battery drain alot faster than stock eclair.
i'm looking forward to see the solution...

done that already too, except I use smartassv2 governor and my max is just stock speed at 600mhz.
I basically applied every tweak that I could find from every topic, and believe me they do work, on v2.1.9 at least.
It seems that most people have the same problem on v2.2.0, the radio somehow keeps draining battery. I noticed that it used up 33% for no reason, whereas on v2.1.9 it was around 2%.
BTW I dunno if it makes a difference if I use smartassv2 or interactiveX, but most people said that smartassv2 is better since that's what nAa uses, so it's more compatible. I don't think changing the governors matter though, I've used Badass Battery Monitor for 3 days in a row now and it shows none of the apps are draining power. Even using Android Assistant shows that my phone is idle 94% of the time, where the System uses 4% CPU and User uses 2% CPU. So I do believe it's gotta do with the radio, somehow this rom isn't using the kernel that well I think.
Then it wil be good idea to stick to 2.1.9

I suggest going back to CM7 2.1.9. It's very stable for me and battery drain is so low that my phone can last almost a week on standby without much usage, it's great!
I would stay away from CM9 for now, and wait until it's more stable. So far, I've read that many people are experiencing a few bugs here and there, so I would wait until after a few new version releases and try it out then.

well, if you're using CM9 or CM7, you have no choice but to use the nAa kernel.......unless you're asking which kernel version, otherwise you pretty much don't have a choice.
I'm pretty sure it's not the kernel either, CM7 2.2.0 drains a lot more battery compared to CM7 2.1.9. They both use the same kernel, so it has nothing to do with that.
i used cm7 2.1.9 and i got 4 hours battery life, with wifi off, 3g off, and all i did was txt thru whatsapp with 2g and i was at the movies for 2 hours anyway, and no its not my battery cause i bought another one, still the same thing im getting frustrated ! gonna try original kernel and rom

Stock 2.1 SE rom loses about 7% during 9 hours of sleep.
So most of you recomand the 2.1.9 instead of 2.2.1? And which kernel should i use? Is there a possibility that the kernel i use (ana 14 ) drains the battery so fast? if i install 2.1.9 should i use the ana 14 kernel, or a lower version?
thx

OK, i installed cm7 mini 2.1.9 and now the battery consumption is great!! :laugh: fully charged phone and it consumed 3% over 9hours of sleep
Hi!
I just got my Xperia Mini Pro (a week ago).
I immediately flashed it with CM10 #146 and overall I'm satisfied with it's resoponsivness and performance. The only thing that worries me is horrible battery life, I just charged it this morning and now, about 6 hours later (20 mins of talking, about 15 messages) my battery's at 35%. I'm not using any data conenction, I have switched it to 2G only, my signal is strong, I have reduced screen brighness to about 75%, and I keep both BT and GPS off. I do use wifi, but that's like 10 mins a day. My phone came with a 1160mAh battery, which I know is not the most powerful one, but baraly 1 day of batteyr life in a brand new phone, and being forced to charge it every evening just scares me
Is this normal for these Xperias? My old Wildfire used to last about 2-2,5 days.
Yes. It is normal for me. I charge my phone everyday.
You can lower your brightness or apply battery tweaks to preserve battery life

You can try another kernel, for instance MESA 2.2, and undervolt a bit. I get about 2 days of battery with that kernel and some init.d and build.prop tweaks.
I don't really fancy any of those ubertweaked-hardocre-v6-megaoptimized kernels and stuff. Cyanogen mod does the job for me, and I don't really want to "overtweak" antything I'm just gonna have to stick with what I have I guess.
I don't think that flashing it with stock FW (which I'd hate to do) will help it?
Christ... I don't get it... A friend of mine has an Xperia LWW with the same battery, the same CPU, and she charges it like three times a week, while I'm gonna have to charge it like seven times a week. It's just wrong. I hope that the battery will get a bit better over time, and I'll be able to use for at least 24h without looking for the charger.

Yeah man, but i guess she hasn´t flashed cm10... ROM consumes battery as well. If you were on stock firwmare as i guess she is, then you would have almost the same battery backup
Always check that sync is off. Cause it will drop battery bar easily. Of course in case you don't need sync.
And check build.prop. there's 2-3 lines which will help the phone to deep sleep better. (Search xda)
I myself use aokp jb with messa kernel and with normal usage it takes me 1.5 day.

I respect all the developers but with due respect and personal opinion:
Kernel : Kernel PAnic v2.5(ICS) and Rage 3.0(GB)
ROM : Smultronic v 5.0(ICS) and Spartan v2.05(GB)
Brightness : 40%
Sync off
I get a usage of about 2 days on both of these roms...and if u are a light user i mean if u play no games them HyperBeamCream is really good for ICS.
well...1 day battery life is abt normal for our fones which have1200 mah battery,,,,can't help it:crying:
well the simplest way to take a step for solution is changing kernel to mesa cause with fxp 146 kernel there was a horrible battery drain for me also. Reduce the screen brightness & turn off 3g if u dont need it
i suggest mesa with CM10 too .
You could also decrease processor speed in standby, I think normally it's 250 but you can put like 125.
In cm10 mesa kernel does the job... It really saves the battery... And one more thing is that, give it some time... The battery will become normal after a few days of usage...
