So after 2-3 weeks of playing with stock ics rom which i update over the air, i decided to root and install custom roms. I flashed Speed Rom 4.0. However, I feel like that the stock ics rom battery is just better than the custom rom. My use of amaze for a day is 2-3 hours of listening to music, 2-3 hours of web browsing, 2 hours of gaming ( tower defense ) and that's when I come back home and my stock rom battery is left with about 30%. However, when I flashed custom rom, I notice that my battery drain faster than before and after a regular day of using I only end up with about 10% left. Anyone has insight on such problem like this?
Check settings and see what's different between the two

I mostly care that my battery can last through a day. My NRG ROM will give me a day easily, with about 1 - 2 hours of screen on time over the period. A lot of it depends on the strength of the 4G cell towers around you (in my experience); the phone uses more juice when seeking towers. The latest NRG is pretty good at not "hunting" for 4G.
Yeah... Looks pretty common I guess for a phone that's screen was hardly on

If you look at the screenshot you can see the phone itself was barely used, merely for an hour at one point, if that much and not at all for the rest.

About 7 hours for me. I'm planning to buy an extended battery . I always have to check my Facebook and twitter every hour and send about 400 texts a day and run Google music. In pretty sure if I was using my sister's evo it would only last me 5 hours lol.

Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
Yes it better than the Evo not by much but I'm sure that the Devs will cook some kernals up for the 3d to improve battery life a bit more. I'm not sure about the photon, but I know that the photon has a slightly smaller battery, 1500mah I believe. But it's not size that matters, it's how you use it.
On my ROM, I get about 19 hours of moderate usage.

If you're not worried about how big your phone is just get a seidio super extended battery. I got the biggest one they make for the Evo 3D, 4000mHa, and it lasts about two days and I'm a pretty heavy user. Even if you are a heavy multimedia user the 4000mHa will last you all day no problem.

What have you encountered as your maximum battery life?
If the figure is hmmm too much, tell us what you used!
what do you mean? maximum standby time or usage? is it the milivolt? please elaborate
Around 1½ day i believe. But normally ill charge it at night where it has around 20-30% left
edit:
Usage: Music(+DSP), SMS, a few calls, Web browsing (2G/3G/Wifi). Dont really play any games but I do watch musicvideos sometimes which is takes around 15minutes.

Lmfao yeah that happens. But you can get Power Saver form the market. It really works. What it does is clock down the processor depending on what profile you set the app to.
Even though, today I haven't used the phone much and it's been discharging from 16 hrs and it's still at 60% (with Power Saver turned off). I've only used it for light texting today and that's it. 3G is what sucks the battery dry. Sometimes I use Edge only (2G) and the battery lasts me a whole day and more. The other day it lasted me a whole 24 hrs and it was still at about 19% left. I'm guessing the battery can last long or short depending on the usage.

With Juggernaut Rom, brightness turned down and web/wifi off I can literally get like 3 days almost if I'm not texting heavily. As soon as I turn internet on I'd say a max of 12 hours. The best battery life I ever got out of it was BeastMod, CPU underlocked to just 1ghz and brightness turned down. Even with web on, still got me almost 2 days - sync off.

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.

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?

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

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 have yet to have a phone that did not get improved via battery life from a custom ROM, even just a debloated and streamlined version of the stock one. Fully stock roms tend to just have too much crap on, and in, them to have wrangle out max battery life, max performance, or a truly optimal mix of both.
Using NOS underclocked to 1GHz undervolted 75mv across the board all set to conservative and 10 hours later 3+ hours of screen on data downloading GPS etc 60% Battery Remaining... Very nice

I just installed Viper this last weekend and I got 60 hours on my first full charge with light usage. I don't think I even tweaked anything on the ROM or screen settings, and this is just with whatever kernel came included with the ROM.

That sounds absolutely amazing - what app are you using to set frequencies/voltages? Thanks in advance!

How do you get 6+ hours screen on time. I can get over a day total but only 3 hours screen time

I'm getting 16-20 hours with around 4 hours on time. I'm underclocked and undervolted , brightness at 25% most of the time, and I just supercharged my phone so I'm waiting to see if that'll help it. I know I've got my standby battery drain down to one percent every 2.5hours. Left it off the charger last night and it was at 98% when I woke up 5.5 hours later. Just gotta play with the settings and tweaks.

So what is the deal with Sense 5 Battery Saver? Do I need Battery Guru as well? CPU Tuner?
I thought battery life like this only came from AOSP ... but, maybe I was wrong.. WOW!
Is keeping Wi-Fi on all the time better for battery?

I get good battery life most of the time. But I am at the ball fields with my kids a lot with no way of charging mine or my wife's phone.
So I got me an Anker portable battery and it saves me all the time. I purchased the Astro E4 13000mAh Dual USB so me and my wife can charge our phones at the same time without looking for a outlet or going to the car. We can both charge our phones 3 times each on this thing before its dead.

As far as battery life is concerned, wifi > 3g > 4g.
But if you're not connected to a wifi network, leaving wifi on will drain your battery. It may not be by much, but I always turn wifi off when I'm not on wifi.
