[discussion] how to define a good battery life - Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro

Hye guys..
1st important thing, this thread is not to compare any rom or kernel.
Just want your opinion on how 'a good battery life' is.
On average usage, i got 1day+ of battery life on my neo v with average usage; messaging & calling. Max cpu set to 806Mhz.
On heavy usage, gaming & heavy internet surfing, oc to 1200MHz, the battery use is -+10% per hour.
So give your opinion about it.

One work day is for me good battery life.
About 13 hours.
All time 3G, sync/gmail, facebooc, dropbox, drive, browsing, youtube. Some photos, 1-2h calls, 100+ sms cpu profile ondemand( min 122-max 1024) sometimes rising up to 1400mhz. Screen brightness 50%.
And 20+ always left.
This is for me good battery life.
MT15i MIUI latest.

For me it's only about the standby time, because screen on time is crap whatever you do. (Well, I get about 6 hours of video playback with screen on 50%).
So measured by night drainage, I'd day 0-5% loss in 8 hours standby (WiFi, sync, some background apps like e-mail) is good, 10% or less is acceptable and more than 10% is bad.
With basic usage (3G or wifi on all day, some whatsapp(chat) or texting, no browsing or watching videos, maybe listening some music) it should be easy to let your charger at home en still have some juice left in the evening.
I'd call this good (MIUI V4 2.6.1, The Alliance kernel @1,6GHz)

Downside of ICS that you'll have to keep your CPU at 1,6GHz to make your user experience smooth.

[Q] Standby drain WiFi vs. 3G

hi,
im just curious how much drain are you experiencing in standby with WiFi vs. 3G?
For me its like:
3G - 0.3% / hour
WiFi - 1% / hour
Running on Stock KE2 DBT
I also noticed that my WiFi drain raised up to 2.5% when using Custom ROMs like Villain or Cognition. Is it possible because they are for XEU phones instead of DBT - which I have.
any comments are welcome!
ras
Whaouuu 0.3 % per hour with 3G in standby... This is very small. Usually, I have around 1% but not all the day
While working from home I had WiFi turned on & found the battery went down pretty quick as in a day or near enough to.Turned off WiFi & now after over 2 days & still 70% battery left.Not scientific I know but a good rough guide.
it is the opposite for me, tonight with wifi on, it took 4% in 7 hours with it all syncning running, automatic updates of widgets, etc.
damn.
it got worse.
wifi at home over night:

wifi at work:
the drain increased from 0.4 to 6.5% per hour (both in standby only with wifi on). this is 16 times as much.
this happened yesterday and today....

[Q] Android System Draining Battery? *Pics Inside*

Hi All,
Ive had my sgs2 for about a week or so now and have been trying diff. custom roms almost every other day. Last night, after flashing the new villainrom 2.3 and its recommended modem, i think ive been getting the best battery life ive had so far....
HOWEVER, i find that my battery is draining for no reason still. I'm a long time android user, but also have an iphone 4. I dont expect my battery to be as great as the iphone 4's, but unnecessary drain is a little annoying. When I check my battery usage, this is what shows (look below), is this normal?
ive only used the display for about 2.5 hrs in 12 hrs, and thats the drain im getting.
Oh, and juice defender was JUST installed like 5 mins ago, so disregard that.

Why dont you try installing 2.3.4 KG1? I have it on and it seemed to have increased the battery life. Did you check any processes that are not shutting down?
Vr2.3 is based on kg3.
That looks ok, use titanium backup to freeze anything you don't use.
The most useful part of the battery info is the zoomed in graph with awake time etc.

Villainrom still has all the samsung bloatware in it. I have cognition and man my battery lasts long. No weird apps running in the background. Just JD Ultimate taking care of even more powersaving.
With regular texting and app usage (of course differs to any type of person) I get 32-36 hours of usage.

Post your HP touchpad's battery strategy. Android

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.

Standby drain

When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the Realme X2 Pro's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
decent standby drain
Over the last night (about 7hrs) the X2 Pro lost 4-5 %pts.
WiFi, Dual SIM, Bluetooth and NFC on (nothing used).
No optimization was manually activated.
Not many apps with background sync were set up, yet.
I think slightly less than 1 % per hour is a decent result. But I've seen phones with smaller batteries (so 1% equals less power than in the Realme), which only used 0.25 - 0.5 % per hour in standby.
Photographs app high %
Hello friends,
I've this phone since 2 weeks and it's just amazing. But I've done a test and I would like to know if it happens the same to you:
Last night, 0h30, disconnected from charger at 95% and went to sleep with a scheduled iVoox.
This morning I've seen it drained 5%, not bad for 8h sleeping.
But the fact is, as you can see in the screenshot, most of the baterry drained has been because of the "Fotografias" app. I'm not using this app (I use Google Photos instead).
Is it normal? Even being iVoox running for 30mins... it is just 28%, less than the other app that I don't use.
Sorry for the big screenshot, I don't know how to shrink it here.

Battery drain - bugreport Battery Historian

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:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
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 :/
