Post a screenshot of your touchpad's battery usage chart, what rom you are using, and any tweaks you have used to achieve the life.
Here's mine...
ROM: Cyanogenmod 9 Alpha 2
TWEAKS: using setcpu to make my TouchPad go into deep sleep (192mhz max and min.) while the screen is off.
LIFE: Can squeeze 12 hours with hours of gaming and browsing.

Does your touchscreen ever become unresponsive after waking it up with that low of a setcpu setting?
No. I have never lost any responsiveness. The only time I had a problem was when I locked it and itsleeped while temple run was running. Then the game became choppy and I had to restart the round

I've just started using Juice Defender (purchase version) to switch my WiFi off when the screen goes blank. I've put some exceptions in too, so Titanium Backup and others can wake the data connection up for syncing if required. Improved standby power saving considerably.
JD also shuts off Wifi after a little while of no data throughout. This can be handy if you are doing something that does not require data, such as games.
Orange, just a suggestion, use powersave scaling when sleep is on. This will peg the clockspeed to the minimum. The only difference between that and what you are currently doing is that it will no longer need to scan to see if it needs to increase or decrease the clockspeed.Theoretically it should save battery.

People usually talk about battery life for continuous usage, but i want to ask about battery life when leaving the phone off ?
After a few tweaks, i noted that betterbatterystats shows my phones has been booted on for 5 days 15 minutes, out of which it's been 4 days 5 hours 20 minutes in deep sleep; and only seen 1 hour 59 minutes of actual usage (screen on basically means when i'm actually actively using it)
unplug means when i unplug it from usb charging after it was already 100% fully charged.

So how does my phone battery stats compare to the normal life time for the Samsung S3 when not in use ? just wondering.
I give most credit to greenify for helping keep my phone in deep sleep mode most of the time. Apps that are waking my phone is mostly googlemaps, and greenpower (left this ungreenified because it managed when to turn on/off my wifi, when i open screen .... which it probably can't do if i greenify it)
other than the few wake locks; the wifi on is mostly due to syncs. I usually set my apps to at most only sync when i turn on the app, or at max once a day. Greenpower will trigger to turn on wifi when the app requests access :X
PS: i'm using wanamlite and adam kernel. As well as philz CWM touch for root.
Hello, 3 days ago I've installed CM10.1 nightly build from 2013-07-25 on my friend's Galaxy S III (international), now his battery life is really bad and he's complaining on me, any way I can improve the battery life?
Here goes a screenshot (as you can see, he wasn't even using the phone when the battery just dropped 50%):

Cyanogen mod roms are known to drain battery much faster than touchwiz.so you cant really expect the battery life to be the same as on stock or stock based roms. you may improve the battery life by using an app called Greenify. it hibernates apps so that they will not run in the backround. this can help considerably. also make sure to turn off gps , bluetooth, wifi. and mobile data when not in use.
well first tell your "friend" that thats how things are in AOSPs. Secondly use differrent kernels and proper setting to get max battery (tutorials are available) plus greenify apps you do not use. And the usual killers as GPS/WiFi/NFC/3G use only when needed or turn them off..
Something is extremely wrong there. Get a normal usage BBS dump and post it here. Also take screenshots of the BBS pages.
Also post a screenshot of your battery stats page (one that shows which apps drain battery).
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 with ROM Blekota Note 4 Lite and Boeffla Kernel. It was great for about few days, but now I have high battery drain by screen process. I have minimal brightness, i don't use phone most time. After 8 hours of school I have 64% battery (when I was sleeping, phone was charging, when I wake up it was a 100% battery), I've been using it only for a while few times, for example to write few smses or search something on Facebook. Why Screen uses so much buttery? How can I fix it?

Screen processes in not only a brightness fact, it combines gestures, touch screen games (well, all android games ) ecc...
For example facebook too is a screen process.
Download Greenify from playstore and hibernate all the app BUT the notification apps you need (for example if you hibernate clash of clans, you won't get notifications from it).
Also, with greenify you can choose between 2 hibernating methods.
1st: tap to hibernate
2nd: auto hibernate apps (root).
And also there's even a more efficient one but it requires Xposed framework.
Try hibernating your apps, and tell us if you see changes in battery life

Hi all,
I have a Note 4 910F on 6.01 (unrooted) with dreadful battery drain to the point where under use I'm hardly lasting a day or less which is ridiculous under medium/light use.
As seen in the images below the phone (since I got it) has been awake all the time (even when screen is off) except when its turned off. (I disabled WiFi on when sleep mode)
It will be awake in airplane mode and in safe mode so its not a 3rd party app problem. All bluetooth/nfc etc disabled. I have tried phone cache clear, app cache clear, reset.
I've used wakelock detector to grant battery stats via pc and see screenshots below for the wakelocks. I've then turned on the phone and have not touched anything for over an hour to show awake stats when the screen is off.
I've been all over the net searching for an answer but I'm pretty new to android stats etc. This is one of three batteries I have btw, all of which perform the same, so to me it must be software related. I am prepared to root the device to remove software that could be causing issue if it will solve it...
I have disabled Google+, Google Now, No Voice commands present at all or gestures.
Can anyone tell me the issue and how to solve this battery drain???
CPU Wakelock below (Partial) most important I am led to believe.

Hi guys, I have a Redmi Note 7 and I'm using Pixel Experience ROM. I had experienced battery drain even with MIUI, but I don't understand what's causing it.
I used Battery Historian and these are the result. I got a very high discharge rate (20% and over) even if brightness is not at its maximum, but by reading BH results, I hadn't found out the culprit for the battery drain. The drain is there even when screen is off, but I limitated it to about 1.5%/h thanks to some Doze modification.
I'm actually using Greenify to hibernate some apps (like Instagram, Facebook and few more), because I've noticed that, without it, the screen-on discharge may rose of a (around) +3%.
How could I limit the battery drain problem?
have you used a custom kernel
Since Android 9 there is the Adaptive Battery Feature:

Enable Use Adaptive Battery if not already done yet.
Additionally turn off Wi-Fi, BlueTooth & Location ( GPS ) if not used: it should be obvious that the less these wireless modules are running, the less the battery gets drained. FYI: GPS drains battery greatly.
I'm currently using Predator Stormbreaker kernel, in an attempt to partially fix the battery drain, but things are same as before. Adaptive battery is on, but my phone keeps discharging fast :/
