Hey there!
Hi, maybe stupid to ask since you are flashing 3 to 4 ROM'S a day but have you tried lite'ning rom? I find the battery duration on it very surprising and with normal usage (the things you mentioned) I last for about 20-25 hours.
Good luck finding something that fits your needs!
try underclocking/volting
Just relax man. Everything will be OK if you relax for a while

I have set cpu...got a lot of freezes.
SetCPU and all those undervolting/underclocking stuffs are useless.
@OP- You just need to find what processes or apps are causing the drain, to see that download Better Battery Stats and check under 'Wakelocks'. Juice Defender, Flashing different Custom ROM's, changing kernels will do nothing but waste some energy and time of your and give you false mental peace. But it is recommended to Calibrate the battery once after you install a new ROM.
Regards.
I also have Lighting 5.0 and nipho 2.0.5 and my battery life is great!almost 2 full days with medium to high usage which is just GREAT for me ;]
-Advanced Task Killer autokill set to ON.
-Green Power Premium and Powersaver Enabled at 10%
-Autokill Memory at Startup
-Also Instaledl Root Uninstall and froze all stock applications which where not needed which HELPED ALOT,because applications running in the backround does drain battery and trust me 60% of applications running are not needed
-Also have Battery Calibration which is nice.Use it after flashing every rom ;]
-If you dont really Use 3G that much Change Network Mode to GSM only and disable Use packet data.If you do use 3G just install an app like Cambia Red make a shortcut on your screen and enable disable both Packet Data and GSM to GSM/WCDMA(Auto mode) to use 3G and then switch it back off.
This is what i do with my phone,with all this settings i am extremely happy with my battery performance ;]
Also i Agree with ithehappy install BetterBatteryStats and see which programs have high Wakelocks!! ;]
Hope it helps
I use LeoMar rom with nimpho kernel.
With medium use i can use my phone 2 days without charging. Wlan, GPS, 3G is on. My brigthness is always on 25%.

Hi there! You can try android assistant from the android market. I'm sure you'll like it. Cheers !
Install WIUI (MIUI based custom rom, you can find it on xda (tag: WAJKIUI))
It has the miui base battery stats which is quite detailed I think. And you don't have to install a standalone app for this.
or
Power Tutor (market app)
it is not for constantly running (because drains the battery : )), but if you want to check the consumption of some apps, you can do with it very well.
or
Battery Monitor Widget (market app)
I use it for a long time. It is constantly running and monitors the battery. I use the notification icon, which show me the battery percentage (1% step). There are a lot of notification packages. The app create a log file if you want and show graphs as well.
I agree with kanyazsomber:
WIUI gives you the details you are looking for
Hi guys, I'm coming from an iOS iPhone 4 device to a Samsung Galaxy S2, So far I'm very satisfied by the performance of the device, the freedom of choice and let's just sum it up, Really happy about the switch.
Anyway can you guys recommend me some Battery saving tips?
What Kernels do you guys use, and that are battery life efficient, and do not sacrifice performance,
I'm running on 4.0.3 Stock ROM
I don't and will not switch from a regular Sammy rom, for certain reasons.
Thank you very much and sorry if I'm OT..
Hi, my first bit of advice is to learn how to flash roms and get your phone rooted!
I'm using a rooted, stock ROM from wanam and I've no complaints.
Once your rooted, the best app I've used for battery saving is called 'autostarts'. It allows you to control when an app starts (for example the google plus app starts after pretty much any event-like connecting a power cord for example).
Using just this app my overnight drain (11 pm to 7 am) went from 16% down to 8%.
The majority of battery monitors I've used just give you the 'feeling' you're saving battery on my experience!

Yes, Phenomenal kernel is very good :asd:

I've flashed my device with the Medium because for some reason the extreme won't boot up my device, I have a "cation" sign under my Phones name, anyway I noticed some apps appear on my device, "Superuser" and "CWM" That means my phone is rooted?
I recommend you to use the WanamLite ROMs (they are the stock ROMs with very few and essential tweaks, and root access). I'm using Fluxi kernel, but I'm using Paranoid Android, which is NOT a Sammy ROM.
Now, in order to save battery you can undervolt the processor, lock it to never go beyond certain speed (i.e 1GHz), use low brightness, disable automatic sync, use 2G, etc...
Hope I helped, and welcome to the wonderful Android world

Congrats on making the move from an OS that are you are told what you can & can't do to an OS that YOU tell what you want to do.
Always leave data network mode as deactivated unless you need it. Go into Settings>Wifi and click the menu button (soft key to the left of the home button) and click Advanced. Then under the option Wifi on during sleep select Never (or Only while charging). As a few other users stated, use auto brightness. Where you can, use the Application Manager widget on your home screen. If the number goes above 0 then you should click on it and kill the app (and clear the Ram as well for good measure. If you can, also use a static wallpaper instead of a live wallpaper, and also use black or dark colours as much as you can. Also open up your dialler and dial *#9900# and something called Sys Dump opens up. There is an option there called Disable Fast Dormancy. Press it to disable it.
I can't think of anymore at 11:35pm!
As for kernels, stock Samsung is all I use. Lots of people on XDA seem to use Cyanogenmod, CF-Root or Siyah.
Good luck and enjoy your freedom. :victory:
You can't practically do anything to save juice but installing some battery monitoring apps like Better Battery Stats, Watchdog etc. Just monitor what apps are causing Wakelocks or misbehaving, then disable the Sync in them.
And PLEASE DO NOT install any crappy apps, Play Store is full of them.
Oh, Android's biggest juice hogger is those ads, so install AdAway and remove those nonsense ads.
Good Luck.
First thing post in the correct forum. Second asking for whats better for "x" or "y" is not allowed as its relative to each person. So for that I will be locking this thread.

We use many 3rd party app in our android phone.
If we install many app in our phone .
We seen some problems like lag+battery drain quickly.
But we don't use many app at once.
In this circumstance you can disable some unusable app by using the app.
When you need the app immediately you can enable & disable it.
