By Doing this On AOKP B40 and R2AOKP.img Kernel I Got Very Good Battery Life. Deep Sleep Is Working Without Any Glitch.
That means you have pointed some apps that may cause battery drain or prevent the phone from going in deep sleep. Better tell that to @kormatoes. Maybe he can fix it.
Sent from my MT11i using xda premium
Ok. Thanks! I'll Inform Korm!
My views as I stand
Deep sleep no problem
Battery over one day
Theses apps you suggest
Pointless for me I use talk always
Media I need to download files
All day
personally I think you should mount and format system
And reflash a ROM
I get over one day out the rom & kernel so it's not something that needs addressing sirkay knows what he is doing with kernels compared to 8 hours from a boot that were are meant to use
Basically it's like this if you flash a new rom ,it will take 2 days to settle in and if I bring out a update in a few days ,it's a cycle of not enough time to settle down and just because you have this it don't mean I have your problem ,
My only wake lock is alarm
when we get to a perfect build I will stop and just start to work on the better things themes,ui,
There is many alternatives to aokp now try a stock based ROM if your after a perfect ROM,
But even stock I'd not perfect is it,less ,crap ui, Sony boat

I completely Understand what you're saying. And Yes you are right and i know that because i have these probs doesnt mean you also got these. i'm just saying before these "freezing" things i lose 75% battery overnight (flight mode) which is worst in my opinion (5-10% is acceptable). so by freezing/uninstalling these its only 2-5% overnight. and thanks i will definitely mount and format system And reflash rom. All This Is just To Inform all AOKP users!
Edit: "mount and format system And reflash rom" Done Still No Change. but thanks, a slight improvement in stability and battery.
75% wow am using like 3 %

By Freezing/Uninstalling apps given in the 1st post, i'm also losing only 3-4%. maybe its because of the kernel, i'm using r2aokp.img by sirkay (BB72).

I don't wanna lose my battery again just to report you:silly:. & for your info even when i just flashed only B40 And Gapps. the highest battery eater were "Media Storage" 60%, "Media Server" 28% And Third "Screen" 11%. according to Settings>Battery. And After freezing Media Storage some apps like instagram and G+ Stopped Working. So Looking Forward To Cm9 FXP 127!:fingers-crossed:

We should be able to make a list of the notorious apps that we've experienced that cause battery drain. No, not some 3d launcher, not some game you play too much, but apps that when installed kill your battery without good cause..
This is an opinion thread, if you see the same app repeatedly than maybe that opinion should matter, and feel free to give your insight.. but no "you're an idiot, because blah blah"
I've used poweramp music player for nearly a year, I've emailed the dev because it will kill my battery at huge rates, but they claimed that it isn't the app. Even though there are tons of posts about the same thing(many about my phone the Samsung galaxy s).. I'm sure it does, but I love the functionality it has and can't give it up. Which is fine.
But I suddenly have battery drain really bad and tthe only change I made was switching to go launcher. Maybe it is the Widgets, but I have lost several hours a day of battery only after using it.
Either way, since I couldn't find a thread about apps people think cause needless battery drain I figured I'd post one. I bet there are a ton of apps people will hate on, but maybe qe can save someone from finding out the hard way, or maybe a developer will see their app listed and think they should work on it..
Regardless, what apps have you installed and noticed needless battery drain?

The exact kind of comment that doesn't contribute. No, it may list some apps that cause NEEDLESS battery drain. According to the dev of poweramp it doesn't process the muscle any differently, and shouldn't drain more than the stock app. There's no custom codecs to read mp3s.

You clearly don't get that PowerAmp doesn't use the same codecs as most media players.. It has custom ffmpeg libs. The author can say they should be similar in cpu but doesn't mean they are.
And I agree that it does use more cpu.. Mostly notice it when I listen to music while sleeping, the phone gets much warmer than if I'm using stock codecs.
And watch your use of the word troll...

+1 for the yahoo mail app.
I am using Go Launcher Ex, Launcher Pro + and ADW Launcher and cannot say that one consumes more battery than the other, it depends more on what widgets or live WP you use in the launcher, so i think we should focus on pinpointing what widgets and in what settings or conditions drain the battery, for example i found that Animated Weather was for me draining to much juice and replaced it by BeWeather, for the same reason i replaced Executive Widgets by Pure Widget.
On the other hand i removed K9 Mail and am using MailDroid, as in several occasions K9 climbed to the top of the list in battery usage, doubling even the screen usage.
At this point i never more experienced excessive battery drain, other than screen and phone cell standby (due to bad reception in my area).

Let me guess, you were using POP...
Actually I might as well complain about a widget I installed, but I uninstalled it a month ago and haven't been able to figure out exactly which one it is in the market... Doh.. I installed it and it literally woke the phone and my tablet up ONCE A MINUTE to update. Deep sleep was gone, battery life about 30% lower than expected. So beware of widgets that update often

Yes you are right i am using pop.
You point is also correct, there are widgets which wont let deep sleep the phone. A method to pinpoint them is to look at the logcat and see which app is waking up the phone constantly.
tunein radio pro and sensor
I had a problem with tunein radio pro. Even after I shut it down though (App Management), under battery use, tunein radio was listed as draining battery continuously under sensor usage.
No idea if it is a sensor issue or the app issue.

which version are you using indian or world ??
i have many bugs ...
i am an indian and updated using pc companion but service menu says the version WORLD_6.1.xxxxx
are the bugs because of the world version instead of the indian keeping in mind pc companion did everything..
i bought the phone via online indian site and it had gingerbread now updated to ics via pcc .
i am hating ICS overall , full bugs ..
i did pc companion update then factory reset ..
1. WIFI bugs , keeps on reconnecting , sometimes restarting the phone keeping wifi on fixes it for some hours, then the time i off it , next time again keeps on reconnecting ......NOW today 3 restarts still not even the reconnecting problem solved..
2. Battery drains like hell ..and sometimes shows even charge increase like 30% went to 33% LOL .. calibration issues.
3. USB mode doesn't works until i change it to debug mode .....even then the charging % is buggy ..also screen senstitvity decreases while charging ..
4. Click on any menu settings , and it will take .5 sec just to highlight the text (like lag) then go to the required next menu ..
5. Phone call and receive is laggy .
6. Wifi hotspot and sometimes usb tethering doesn't work says "Network error" WTF.....
7. Screen flickering issue sometimes when on low light .....
8. People also reporting reboot loop while using SD card until u format the card , i dont whether i should buy what i wanted to buy the 32 gb sd card ..
9. Can't run more than 3-4 apps at a time , it closes or crashes the apps ..
10. Poor ram management , very poor !!
11. what is wrong with the battery config , gsmarena shows battery is li-ion , but u do *#*#4636#*#* and battery info shows li-poly , WTF ??
and best of all
Gingerbread (the .184) had none of these problems (updating to .184 even made battery last longer)..
guys whats the problem , is sony gonna fix it ?? i cant use the internet at all because wifi bugs !!
also what do you think , is it because of the ICS or because sony guys didn't tested ICS well on SOLA....come on
the whole official sola forum is full of above complaints , how can one cannot notice these when they put ICS on sola..come on bad testers at sony ..
this was my first sony phone as well as my first android phone and now i think WASTAGE !! will never buy it again if sony doesn't fixes it soon !!
now for the meantime , any good custom roms available ??
also since my first android phone i need all the info from basic to advance regarding flashing , etc
also how can one use reverse usb tether without rooting and reverse bluetooth tether at all ??

Hi guys,
Need some help here.. I am currently on omega v35 with doggly theme and using persus kernel v29.2. My battery is draining very fast. Even on idle for 30minutes, it drop 2%. Is it because of the theme or setting for the kernel?
I had tried flashing back to stock and siyah but the drainage is even worst. Can anyone help me with this? Are there some setting sample for the tweaks which I can follow on? My ram usage is always constant at 700mb, are there any way to reduce it? Basically, I am using my phone for movie and some gaming like slotomania..
Hope to hear from you guys soon with some advice for me.. thanks.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Note that the drain might not real drain but caused by the need for the battery to recalibrate itself after some time.
Usually a full and uninterrupted charge-decharge-charge cycles solves those issues.
Please attach a _full_ and root-enabled log of betterbatterystats (free Version here on XDA) over at least 2-3 hours.
Also include a screenshot of the Android-integrated battery stats in fullscreen mode (without the app listing below)
That should be sufficient data to find the culprit

Dalvik always caches apps you opened in the past in the background and keeps them in a semi-frozen state (no CPU access but still in memory).
The reason is simple: it does not cost any power (RAM always costs the same, regardless of content) and it allows you to multitask between multiple apps.
Should an active app need more RAM it will automatically remove those old apps from cache.
In anutshell; simply don't care. Except if you have some apps that lock themselves in RAM and cause lags but that's not an issue of Android but rather the app itself.
hi
Just wanna ask.. is perseus 29.2 compatible with Omega v35? TiA

I have a pretty bad battery drainage problem. Multidp and 12_hsic wakelocks are prevalent. The most noticeable is the Phone app waking up the most.
Steps I've taken to combat the High battery drainage
Disabled Fast Dormancy
Greenified Facebook, Playstore, PlayBooks and Keep
All but contacts and chrome are checked under the autosync settings
Even tried apps like Juice Defender, but the battery drainage increased to a whole new level; deleted the app
Installed a custom kernel. Undervolted by -50mv

Kernel: Temasek Kernel
P.S Tried the BetterBatteryStats thread, but no one did help me there. :/ Hope I solve my problem here. Attached the idle dump.

The Problem is The ROM , not the Phone.
Android 4.3 isn't optimized for S3 yet .
That causes Battery Drain Problems.
My Recommendation is that you search another 4.3 ROM or Downgrade to 4.2.2 or lower.
Previous post is wrong.
Your two first kernel wakelocks mean network use. Search for background sync apps, check Wi-Fi advanced settings and disable Google constant search.
Greenify all apps, except the vital ones for your usage. With paid app and xposed framework you can even freeze push message ones.
All this can be found in a couple of minutes with Google.
Some can achieve .2 %/hour in deep sleep with 4.3.
The Rom is not the culprit.
You wont get good battery life on IDLE on AOKP, AOSP or CM ROMs. No matter what you do. battery life is ok while the phone is awake but when it is in deepsleep still it consumes the battery on AOKP, AOSP or CM ROMs.

Already had Google constant search disabled. And 4.3 is not xposed framework compatible. So can't use that.
And I have disabled background syncing except for chrome and contacts. It's the phone app waking up that's probably the culprit

I use xposed framework... It's compatible.
2.1.4 apk framework works well. Some people need to use SuperSu instead of super user, you can put it with a file explorer in system/app, then reboot and run, there is even a cwm zip somewhere to flash the framework directly.

Already had Google constant search disabled. And 4.3 is not xposed framework compatible. So can't use that.
And I have disabled background syncing except for chrome and contacts. It's the phone app waking up that's probably the culprit

Yes I know it's just 1.1% but you gotta see that this is just an idle drain. When I start using the phone on day to day basis, it doesn't even last the whole evening let alone the whole day. I'm down to 20% by mid afternoon when i unplug my phone at 8 A.M. .
Whereas when I was on stock, as the people above have said, my battery drain was around .4% and the phone used to last around a day and a half with moderate usage. Yes I know that I can never have that good a battery, but atleast I should be able to eliminate most of the wakelocks with this ROM. But the typical methods like disabling FD, greenifying apps etc etc don't seem to work.

I am on omega rom series 8.1.AOKP
My battery doesnt last a day anymore.
Phone is way faster than stock, but battery sucks.
Are there NO AOKP/CM/AOSP roms that have more stability and better juice at all?
No

Hello!
I know its a common problem for everyone. But I think my problem is quite a bit more. It drains fast even if I don't use my phone. One thing is my 3G is on 24/7. But I saw people with some other roms who open the data traffic for 24/7, bt still get 1.5 days service from battery.
My Xperia Go really drains so fast.I uploaded some screenshots. The first two photos, i uploaded the app use right after charging my mobile & in the next pair of photos are next mornings'. In between i just make a call for 10 min. Nothing else. Now say what should I do?
btw, i found just non-system apps like facebook,messenger & whatsapp which might drain some extra battery. Otherwise I have no other major apps non-system apps. I JUST WANT TO RUN MY XPERIA GO FOR AT LEAST ONE DAY WITH A FULL CHARGE
My Phone: Xperia Go rooted with doomlord kit version 14
Build number: 6.2.A.1.100
Kernel version: 3.0.8+ (I think its the stock kernel)
My pc operating system: Windows 8
Is there any better rom for me with pretty much less bugs?
Note: Give me an option without unlocking the bootloader plz
Well u should downgrade to gingerbread to see if it the battery problem or software problem

Thanks friend. But I would like stuck with any rom of JB. So if u may help me about that, I will be very happy ^_^
I tried BeAnZ/Google™ BeAnZ Lite 2014/01/01 and my battery life has improved considerably. But again I never had this bad battery. Maybe its a hardware issue ?

I did follow some steps:
Step 1:
1. First You go Settings--->APPS--->All Tab---->ECO Mode Controller/ Extended battery mode (Click Clear Data and Force Stop)
2. Then Again you Go Settings--->APPS--->All Tab---Setting.apk (Click Clear Data and Force Stop)
3. Charge Your Mobile 4 to 5Hours
4. After 4-5 Hours While Charging That Time You Click Vol Up+Power Button( after 3 times Vibrate)
5. Remove Your Charger and Again Plugin Your Mobile The Sony Logo With Comes And Charging Logo has been Shown
6. Then Power On Your Mobile While Charging
7. Then Go Setting--->Power Management TURN ON BATTERY STAMINA MODE.
8. Then see the battery state.
Step 2:
As ur phone is rooted like me, install Greenify app & add those app works in background even if u don't use the phone. May be Greenify will stop them.
Step 3:
In power mangement, press the stamina mode & exactly add apps like which u did in grennify. In my case Facebook, Facebook Messneger & Whatsapp were the most dangerous app. So i added those.
Step 4:
Use app2sd card software & transfer app from phone memory to sd card. It mau help a liitle.
after these steps i get some little improvement
Note: There's always some bug in other roms. That's why i didn't install any
hey thanks for replying ...
I was using ALL THE PROCEDURES THAT U ALREADY MENTIONED...
BUT I THINK ITS A BATTERY ISSUE...I HAVE BEEN USING IT SINCE ONE AND HALF YEAR OR SO..
EVEN SOME BATTERY APPS SHOW THAT IT CAN SAVE ONLY BATTERY WHICH LONGS FOR 1HR OR SO WHERE IT IS SUPPOSED TO SAVE FOR A 5 HR TALK TIME
U CAN USE " No Bloat Free" to disable system apps if u dont want to use...:cyclops:
I am gonna replace the battery i guess..
Sony ericsson is not providing a battery replacement , they are asking for warranty and all which is expired in my case..
Anyways Thank YOu..
Well try factory format its work for me
also always charge your fon atleast more than 55%

I'm having trouble with the same phone but different rom. I'm running CM11 on my GO and battery lasts about 7-8 hours. This is with some maps usage, 10 minute calls, 10 viber messages and some surfing using Firefox. I've greenified everything including Viber & Whatsapp. I also got Juicedefender turning 3g off when screen is off and turning it on briefly every 15 minutes. Clean master is also running in the background because I have to keep clearing ram.
Edit: oh, and I got No frills cpu control set to 200/800mhz Interactive/Noop
Going back to stock rom might help but then Viber "effs" things up and dialer starts lagging.
Any other tips? This piece of crap phone has been nothing but trouble since the beginning.

It's the screen that drains most of it, how long has it been on?
And it is weird because it doesn't show to be awake when screen is on which usually is the other way (awake with screen off).
Check CM thread to see if it's a known/fixed bug.
I updated to the latest CM11 and things are a bit better now... I'm getting about one days use. Which still isn't much considering most of the apps are greenified. Anyway.....
edit: and I've tried to keep the screen brightness at constant ~25-30%.
