I am using the stock ICS ch, after turning off "downloadagent & facebook app" my battery life has doubled.
I'm using the XSX Kernel with the MIUI ROM I'm getting much more than I used to on the ICS. I'm still new to the all these CPU governors and stuff. But yeah an improvement is what I'm seeing and I'm finally satisfied with the device.
Kernel :XSX v3.3
ROM MIUI 2. 27 or something [the newest]
Governor: Smartassv2
Do try it
I'm using MIUI ROM with advanced stock kernel and I can tell you my battery life is much greater than ICS.

im having good battery life also now, havent have this good before, im on stock .45 with latest v6 supercharger, and my kernel is dual boot kernel.
i dont know but im liking my battery right now, for example when im not using my phone, before i got 5-10% drop without using for 9hrs, but now ive got no drop at all,
yesterdat i checked its still 100% , and now after 17 hrs with minor playing and phone calls only, i still got 77%, huge battery drain for me is while im on playing, but @ normal usage i only got minor battery drain. im liking this right now

Is anyone else having the same problem as mine? how canI solve this?

Anybody else with this issue? Just upgraded to v 38 today and battery drain is severe.
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
Yeah dude, I have the same problem too. I thought it was just me.
Ya I'm burning though a 3500mhA battery in under 6 hours.
the android OS process is taking over 60% of the battery atm, not really sure whats up with that.
Good to know I'm not alone.
I had been running an older version for a while... v 32. Hadn't had a chance to upgrade lately. Performance of v 38 is dramatically better than what I was used to....but the battery is killing me.
I did a complete wipe before the install. Does anybody know if this is going to be addressed soon in v39 or should we drop down to v 37?

KaosFroyo v38 has the CFS v6 kernel as part of the update.

Also, fwiw, I've been having battery issues ever since I rooted my phone. it doesn't matter what ROM I choose, both Kaos & NonSik Froyo's have been rough on my battery. I even have Collins battery tweak running and that hasn't helped much. I figure its just part of having the luxury of being rooted and running great ROM's !!
Sent from my NonsenSIKal Froyo 10.8.1 using XDA App
I haven't had any battery problems since I rooted, in fact my battery life has gotten better thanks to the more efficent battery management of froyo, and the fabulous AutoKiller.
On KaosFroyo v37 with AutoKiller set to Strict, my phone would last all day and I use it as my MP3 Player for at least an hour everyday.
I am using the Seidio Innocell 1750 mAh Battery for HTC so that's also probably helping a little.
I was just looking at those same batteries online. Are they the same size as the stock batteries? I can't tell from the picture on the website.

Hello, newbie rooter here. Where about can i get this?
as someone said earlier flash CFS v6 for v38, i am running v38 with minimal use i get over 48 hours of life, heavy use i get 15 hours or so. To get CFS v6 just google it
(i consider heavy streaming pandora, playing games, surfing the net ect)
Don't just google it... search the development forum for it. It's made by Conap and there's a v8 out already that'll probably be better.
I'm on v8 with a slightly modified Floyo ROM and I could probably idle my phone for over 100 hours.
Upgrading has helped my battery as well. I am running KayosFroyo v38.
Ok so I'm new to the vibrant and I've been having some real crappy battery life. After like 2 hours of medium use on cm7 my battery is at 50%. When I was using my g2 I'd get like 8 hours of medium use running cm7 oc'ed 1.3ghz. But I have my vibrant at 1.2ghz and its horrible, same @ 1ghz. Is there any fix for this or should I start checking out some extended batteries?

CM7 isnt going to be the best battery anyway
flash a different kernel (dont know which iv never been on CM7) or go back to a 2.2 rom
i was using glitch hl kernel. and i dont get why i would go back to a froyo rom. froyo is outdated. but cm7 always had good battery life on my g2 so i dont get how a bigger battery would ause lower battery life.
Try bali kernel and callibrate ur battery with an app from the market u should see a difference

If htc released the source for the g2's newest android version, you'd notice a decent difference between the two phones. We're still missing some key drivers and an official leak.

This post looks complicated but it was pretty simple.
You mentioned not wanting to spend money, so I will warn you, it involves purchasing two apps.

Hi guys...
I recently install the cm9 4/4 rom
And its amazing! So far I dident get any bugs..
But I do have one problem, the battery is so weak.. Like every six hours I need to rechargh it.
So what I wanted to know is what karnel that supperts the cm9 well will give me better battery results?
Thnx alot!

I peronally like cm9 stock kernel best, better check what services/apps are running in the background that consume much power!
I'm using the original karnel that I got with my sgs2..
Is there a stock Room for the cm9?
Can you give me a link please?

Mate battery life won't magically improve by flashing an alternate kernel / ROM. There are tons of reasons which may affect battery life on a ROM, and you must first determine what that is before you move on and experiment. Before moving onto a new kernel, determine what is causing battery drain using apps like CPU Spy (Can determine if your phone is entering deep sleep or not) and BetterBatteryStats (Can determine kernel wakelocks which prevent the phone from going into deep sleep). Also, what is your usage pattern? On extremely heavy usage patterns, 6-8 hours is below par, but not unbelievable.
Unfortunately I would agree with mattisfaction at this point of time. Stock ROM for CM9? When you install CM9, you get the CM9 Stock kernel. Not what came with your phone.
Well...
I see I got much more to learn :-/
Well thnx anyway, ill come back after some more research =)

You mis-understood. He got a run on sentence " it has such great perfomence and excellent battery life i have never had.My phone on a 9 hour charge before i am also overclocked at 1.6 ghz."
He meant before when he got overclocked to 1.6GHZ
still confused
Before he flashed to ics, he was on a rooted gingerbread rom. He was able to over clock then, but not now on the ics rom.
I still get what SayWhat10 got out of it. It could mean many things. lol
Is it normal for my neo v battery to drain this much when using mobile data? I lose 1% every minute or so... Like now.. I just got 100% charged and after a few sec of pulling off my charger, the battery starts to drain 1% every minute that i am using data but when the phone is on standby battery is alright.
Im on a custom rom- uhd 5.0.1 and my kernel is stock from 4.0.4...bl locked

With packet data ON, that's how efficiently the battery lives. I hope you guys calibrate the battery after a new flash. ( Y)

I always have my packet data on and for about a year I never went over 10%/hour while browsing net outside of WiFi range.
In my case I narrowed the problem down basically to "screen on" state. Suddenly it multiplied power consumption even with packet data and GSM off (level of brightness doesn't matter, simply being on did this).
It persisted through ROM changes (reverting back to stock, different ICS, GB and JB ROMs). I'm not alone in this, as I found dozens of similar cases all over the net, but no solution. Some suggest hardware malfunction, like motherboard short-circuiting.
@halfblack :Well maybe I'm mistaken. But that's normal on some ROMs. My bad! Never faced such an issue.
Sent from my Xperia Neo V using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I'm sorry if I sounded aggressive. It's just that inability to deal with this problem is frustrating.
And you are surely right about some ROMs, especially ICS-based, having minor or major battery issues. UHD should, in my case does, have it under control though.

there's a lot you can do, either get a new custom rom, try a different kernel, go for stock based ones, it's always good to start there. check whether you have gprs or data activated which usually causes drain. how much your battery is being used also dictates towards the drain. if all the above is ok, the kernel might be the issue for rapid drain
get screenies so we can guide you better...

The stock roms and stock based roms are not at all battery friendly...I'm on moProject42 4.2.2 and my battery hardly drains even if I leave wifi on without switching on wifi optimization. My battery drain is about 1% every 7-8 mins if wifi and screen are on.. I always have around 180mb free ram (which I think almost no one gets after 7-8 hrs of use in ICS based stock roms), use SmartassH3 CPU governor on just 806MHz and still don't face slightest lag in any game I play (Temple run, subway surfers, MotoGP)
The point is there is loads of bloatware running in such roms that battery drain is normal..
Most of the stock based roms and stock roms lack lots of battery and performance tweaks...It's time to switch to cyanogenmod

as far as i remember, ultimate hd 5.0.1 has offline charging...but if you are getting a bootloop then i'd recommend a re-install or if u've installed a custom rom then do the same..but if it still doesn't work then try flashing a different rom...
A word of advice..
1. CM , AOSP and AOKP roms are under continuous process of beta testing..So dont judge I'm on aokp 4.1.2 for now and wifi is still buggy but i can manage(i mean android 4.4 is out now)
2. Try roms based on stock but are completely stripped and are still customizable..eg. JJ Hybrid 3.3 rom. Ultimate HD is very good but apparently a lil too much for our neo v Happy Flashing!:good:
