any help????
my wife's battery life is so bad
I use set cpu and turn down the speed when the screen is off. My battery performance is almost equal to what I used to get from the Droid1. It'll last me all day with moderate usage,
I use SetCPU as well but I am a little more aggressive.
ScreenOff = 300Mhz
Less than 50% Batt = 800Mhz
Less than 25% Batt = 600 Mhz
I also have it set to throttle down to 800Mhz when temp goes above 50C but thats not really about Battery Life.
You really don't notice the lowered CPU at all. Especially during phone calls or TXTing.
I think the real savings is in the screen off. My guess is the stock automatic scaling is not doing a good enough job on it's own when the phone is sleeping. and most of our battery life was being blown away in standby.
With those settings I have been able to go almost a day and a half on a charge with moderate use where before even light use would only get me 6-8 hours.
And that is with a BP6 not a 7!
With those settings as your battery goes lower the longer it will take to drain. It really was remarkable.

Disable WiFi or BlueTooth ..
My u20i on nAa kernel and MiniCM7 2.1.9 has a poor battery life....
Its down to 10% in less than 12hrs with minimal use, no data and no wifi...
I have calibrated it many times by removing battery stats in CWM recovery...
I kill all background services only 4-5 running apps....
plzzzzzzzzzzz help what to do for battery drain improvements..
Do all this at ur own risk
Delete the app DSP manager if you dont use...
Use interactiveX as ur cpu governer, set min cpu speed to 19mhz and max to 652mhz(stable for me) or 691mhz and check undervolt(at ur own risk)
Uncheck surface dithering(at ur own risk)
Download juice defender or any other battery saving apps...
Or just change to a better rom like Arc Mini NXT6, Gingersony, Prime HD.
Hello all you xda-ers!
Please post information about the following aspects of your current device, in as much detail as possible:
Battery Life
Temperature
CPU clock
ROM
Kernel
Charger power
This survey will hopefully enable new owners like myself to determine whether or not we received a bad egg. Also, it will offer some info about how different ROMs, kernels, chargers and CPU clocks impact the Battery Life and Temps, two very contentious issues (I think?) with this device.
Awesome, lets do this
Battery Life: Newish device but VERY short - with moderate/heavy usage about 4 hours!
Temperature: 30C out of my pocket, but quickly shoots up to 40C+ after some usage
CPU: 1.5Ghz
Rom: Leedroid
Kernel: Default Leedroid kernel
Charger Power: Stock 5V 1A
Also put is whether GSM or cdma

Mikrunny using included anthrax kernel running at 1.5ghz. When not in use its around 77° F. The maximum I've seen when playing games is around 97° F. I'm on cdma btw.

Battery Life: Great. Anywhere from 16-24 hours with "light" usage, 6-10 with "moderate," and 4-6 with "heavy."
Temperature: 18C out of my pocket, average 30C, 40C after some usage
CPU: 1.2Ghz but it scales down according to battery life.
Tech: CDMA
Rom: Mine
Kernel: Currently using Anthrax Alpha RLS 9, but same temps with Stock kernel.
Charger Power: Stock 5V 1A
Who the hell rated this 1 star?
Battery Life: Pretty good. It lasts a whole day with light-medium usage (3-4 hours screen on, no games or anything).
Temperature: I think I have a phone that overheats no matter what, since it's in the top right and happens during light usage. The battery never really gets hot.
CPU clock: 1.2Ghz
ROM: ViperROM Redline RC2
Kernel: Stock? Whatever comes with the ROM im using
Charger power: Stock charger, through USB
Just got it up to 104° F playing Final Fantasy lol

That's what I want to know. I had to boost it back up.

it's nice being an insider sometimes... lulz..
same here. running inbreded ROM with rls09 alpha 7 anthrax kernel. i am at 70 perfect with a pretty decent amount of use on 10 hours now. clocked at 1.67
Battery Life: "Light" Usage, When I say "light" I mean L-I-G-H-T, like a text every once in a while, but that's about it - 30-48 hours
My personal "Normal" Usage 12-16 hours
"Medium/Moderate/Night Life " Usage: 6-10 hours
"Heavy/Drunk" Usage 3-5 Hours.
Temperature: Idk, cool when it's not doing anything, but it gets really warm when I'm doin stuff
CPU clock: Stock
ROM: ZR3D 1.5
Kernel: Stock
Charger power: A/C Stock

•Battery Life= Light use 30hrs or more .. Just texts and handful of phone calls.
Moderate use 6hr to 10hrs. Games,texts,calls,So on
Heavy use 4hr to 5hr. Helps to keep the brightness turned down alot..
•Temperature=Piss warm nothing hot just room temp
•CPU clock= Stock
•ROM= My own
•Kernel=Stock
•Charger power=Stock

Finally, some realistic battery life results. I get so tired of reading unrealistic battery life results from people but these are about on par with mine and pretty much everyone's EVO 3D if the terms "light" "moderate" and "heavy" were used loosely and/or like we're doing

I agree lol. I seen some odd ones ... Like someone snuck in with a 3500 mha battery saying they get 3 to 2 days heavy use but say they are using a stock battery lol.. I bumped the raiting up on the thread too lol..
just 2 simple questions guys. From what i read the v6 supercharger script helps the ram not go below 200....from monitoring my ram usage, the lowest ive seen it drop is 230mb ish. I have not monitored during gaming, but will it help with gaming?
and i see alot of persons UV to -100. Ive tried it and seen no almost no difference in battery life. (using Stweaks and Siyah kernel with Omega rom)
Does it affect gaming in any way, or is it just my eyes cause fruit ninja and temple run have slight framterate dips (or could it be power saving mode)?
thanks for the responses
Anyone?
I didnt get your question completely...
And yes, powersaving mod decreases framerate to 40 instead of almost 60fps.. you can check it by using fpsmeter in playstore..is paid btw..
And supercharger does decrease the ram being used but its not good for multitasking according to my experience..
Hope that clears it..

Thanks for the info. Does anyone know if undervolting to - 100 decrease overall performance in anyway?
Power saving mode will have an affect on overall performance. UV.......hmm if I'm honest I do it just so my phone doesn't get warm. A lot of tests show that UV will save around 1-2% of battery. Biggest battery drain are still the screen and apps that stop the device from entering deep sleep. If UV causes games to lag it simply means you've UV too much
The amount of performance I require is lag-free UI, lag free everything. Based on that I've underclocked to 1.9 GHz. I have Greenify, Amplify and 'Hibernate CPU' running, and am using Temasek's CM13 with Arsenic R23 kernel. But still at night, during hours of inactivity my charge drops from 100% to 89%. I had 100% to 97% on other ROMs. Can someone help me out?
