saurom wins best battery in my books
i went on a craze testing different roms specifically for battery life. the best battery i got was using saurom gb rom. 1.5 days!! i would say i was aiming for light/moderate usage at the time.
i got decent usage on seraphim ics rom, more on the heavy usage side when i was testing this rom. little over 12hrs. i love it graphically and how smooth ics is, but since im on my phone alot saurom suited my power taste better.
to save as much battery as possible, my config:
- antutu battery saver app
- brightness always at a minimum
- vibrate always off, silent at office, sound only everywhere else
- screen filter app in the dark
- wifi off (test purposes, its a given u'll save more when on wifi)
- auto sync off (im always on it so refreshing apps i need on the fly was good enough, i dont always need to know who emails or facebooks me every sec)

My best is just over 4 hours. Haven't quite gotten that again tho.

Not possible by someone who actually uses there phone. I never thought I was a heavy user but seeing replies like above I have to be past the definition of heavy user. With my extended battery I could get 2.5 days on a single charge.
Im also having battery drain with bionix newest rom. Nothings changed in my day-day usage. probably flash another modem or something.
I think I might switch to stock froyo if things don't get better. Or just order a new battery. Because it just drops like a rock. And im using watchdog but it doesn't really help that much. Or could someone with experience with battery drain guide me on how to stop it from happening?

Yes I got it from t-mobile but I have not used stock long enough to see whether it was just a rom issue. I have only flashed team whiskeys roms and they seem to kill my battery. Nero v3 was the best but still wasn't great. I leave around 6:30 in the morning and maybe use the phone to get on xda, engadget, facebook, etc for about 1 hour, But my battery drops like a rock when I do this. And ever since bionix v it has only gotten worse. From that one hr of usage it drops 40 percent. Is hsdpa that big of a battery-killer? Because on wifi it seems to do a little better. Idk if this is just a network issue or what? Like right now it dropped 2 percent just from typing this up. brightness is less than half and everything is set to manually refresh. Wth?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
gb, but custom kernels with undervolting with increase battery even more. ICS will be even better once source drops and we have custom kernels for that as well. This is because ics can clock lower and still be smooth due to the gpu rendering that is finally integrated, and should've been done that way since day one. But until then definitely gb.

It depends honestly. Somedays with ics i have high standby drain and apps galore sucking my battery down, other days I get almost 4 hours screen time.
Dags alpha2 seems a bit better than alpha1. I dunno about seraphim, I promptly returned to to alpha1 once I seen baby blue text on white in my apps.
I'd rather keep charging than deal with GB.

What are you under volting 1.5 and below to? And when you say what you are over volting 1.82 is it the only one over 1.5 that you are over volting or are you over volting everything from 1.5 to 1.82?
Also can you list what you're over volting and under volting to? I'd like to try to see if I can get the same results.

Currently on ics alpha 2 so no kernel to do this.
When on GB i was using DaG's OC kernel (or dagr8's sorry getting them confused right now, tired will check and edit l8r). J only overvolted the 1.82 setting. As for undervolting i pretty much looked ar what cpuspy said were the most used and using systemtuner set those down one notch on the slider. The ones used less frequently i set 1-2 notches down on slider. only methodology i used and was done over a period of time pushing to see if any problems/fc's occurred. Never really got to the point where that occurred as the ics leak came out and i jumped to it. Did not make a screen capture of system tuner settings or keep a list of final changes.
Oh yeah, i also get the min frequency to 192 and that seemed to quite a bit especially when apps were forcing 'stay awake' mode. That, i feel, is the biggest difference between my GB battery life and ics. I can get 1 day out of ics with 3-4 hours screen time but sometimes an app will force stay awake and the drain is quicker.
Biggest battery saver for me is using wife vs lte. <<wifi i mean word completion error but don't mind using wife sometimes too

Ffs can we not have a battery life thread started every single day?
Battery life is the most subjective thing, it all depends on how you use your phone, what apps you have installed running in the background, what you have synced, location services. Etc...
No 2 people well have the same drain.
I'm on stock ROM and subscribe to Rogers Toronto. I get about 4 hours too.... My usage sounds similar to yours as well. Thanks I will pick up extra battery soon.
I was just wondering based on everyone's experience (especially those who have tried many different ROMs). Can you also mention how many ROMs you've tried?
I used to use stock ICS with all T-Mo bloatware and battery life is just horrible. Now, that I've rooted and use Fast Amaze ROM without all the bloatware and I can see a much better battery life. So, I am just wondering what would be the ROM you'd recommend that has the best battery life...
Thank you for the helps

I say make your own "rom". Learn what it is that devs do, use trial and error to figure out what tweaks make a real difference(read a roms tweaks, do research into how to make those changes).. remove bloat, modify the build.prop.. the best rom is the one you build yourself. And you learn a lot more too.
But that is just my opinion.

I've gotten 4.5 hours screen time using hotwire's kang and around the same using fj's old cm9 build so it's more than likely a problem on your end.
However, I've noticed that gpsserviceprovider sometimes doesn't shut off completely after using gps and is and preventing the phone from going into deep sleep. Sometimes I would go to sleep with a 100 % charge and wake up with an 86% charge. Searched around and seems to happen on some cm9 roms. A reboot solves the issue though.
Your best bet is to install betterbatterystats and check your wakelocks. Probably some app causing it on your end.
Man I get best battery life with cm9 and aokp
99% of the time its the user and not the rom
Good luck

You must be doing something wrong cause I have decent battery life 12 hrs with 4 to 4.5 screen on.

I agree, I'm trying to find the cause myself. I just made the same thread a couple of days ago.
I'm having pretty bad battery drain on cm9 as well.

Lmao I got the BEST battery from dmans CM9
You guys are all doing something wrong
Or really expecting battery life to last 10 hours and 5hours alone are on screen time alone
Sorry to burst your bubble but it won't happen
All these screen shots on the threads showing 8-12hr battery life times are from probably minimal usage... on a 8hr work shift with mediocre usage I get 50% left
People its a big screen it uses a lot... A LOT of battery... these roms work miracles but if you want your device to last very long time on battery us it minimally... that's what its its all about

First of all, none of you guys are getting 4-4.5 hours when on LTE. I call bull****. Maybe...MAYBE on wifi, but not on LTE. CM9 or not...because as we all know, its not official cm9.

I'm not a noob. I'm using the same apps, the same usage, etc and getting VASTLY poorer battery life on CM9. I love CM9, it's my go-to rom, I'm just saying there's definitely an issue of some kind on the CM9 builds for the Note, or at least on some Notes.

That's why I got an extended battery. Easily see 5+ hours on LTE and 6+ hours on mostly wifi. And yes, thats screen on time.

Lol well I was in your boat for awhile. However, I finally just got annoyed with having to pay attention to my battery. I don't like not having full sync and location on etc, now I don't have to worry about it. Honestly, the size difference isn't even noticeable anymore. And the benefit outweighs the negative for me personally.

OK this is seriously ridiculous! My battery is dying so fast its seriously pissing me off! I was over getting something to drink 10 min ago and while I was it dropped 3 - 4 percent. Then as I'm typing this. It dropped 2 more. While the screen us off its alright. I have ucle2 right now. Can someone help me out? Can someone suggest of what to flash? The cm9 kang version was a whole lot better than this

What roms are you guys using??
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
Anyone else using it? I've used it since OG Droid, and it's always the first app installed on any phone I get. It claims to be giving me 2.01x battery life, and with any other phone I believed it but I'm seeing people post 2 days no charge and I get about 1.25 days with very heavy use, unless I'm at work (12hr shifts 4 days a week). Thoughts? Some people claim it's junk, and I'm not so sure with a battery as big as ours we need it, or if there is a better alternative? I mean we already have a Battery Saving Mode...

I'm using it,I think if you configure it with the right settings it can save you a good amount of battery.

I personally don't think it's needed on this phone because how long the battery already lasts and I like my smartphone to stay smart. But on my lg spectrum I used deep sleep battery saver, it was pretty good.
Also on a side note time up isn't as important as screen time. I could get days if I didn't use the phone, but if you are always on it 12 hours is pretty good
Sent from my SCH-I605 (AKA NOTE 2)
I think battery saving apps are obsolete now because phone's are becoming more battery efficient and batteries are becoming larger (Mah). I don't see any need for a battery saving app anymore especially with this phone. Just uninstall it and some more RAM
I use deep sleep battery pro. very easy to set up

I use to use that app with my gnex and evo 4g but, I leave 4g on and gps and still after 14 hours have 50% battery left... this phone is a ogre!!!
