Hi,
since quite a while I have a terrible battery life on 3g. I compared it to a friends Gs3 and he looses 5% in 4hours.
I loose 25% in the same time.
I'm on a lg8 stockrom rooted.
Better battery stats seem to show me that my device doesn't sleep well.
Do you guys have any advice for me. I really don't want to do a factory reset.
thanks in advance

Install Epsilon rom, your battery life will increase considerably!

I don't want to install anything before the official JB update is released.

Hey guys this is what happens to my phone quite often is it even normal? Im using androidmeda rom and got kg1 baseband. Thx for comments and possible solutions in the mean of telling me that if u use the same rom which basedeband u use

No its not normal. It should gradually creep down not that steep drop. KI8 battery life is great... Among the other benefits. Someone with more knowledge may be able to explain whats causing that sudden drop. May be a faulty battery.

Man that is savage battery drain. Try something like smaberg's KI8 Rom with siyah kernel, I'm getting amazing battery life with that combination. Siyah also has some good advice on improving battery life.

Did you wipe your battery stats when flashing the ROM? If not, boot to CWM, wipe battery stats, charge to 100% and then drain that battery.
Goin to try that battery reset.
UPDATE: So I did battery reset but the phone has gone crazy. It suddenly started to automaticly switch to flight mode when I turn the screen on

Look at the state of this. Batt crapping out on me?

I ordered a spare batt and now when i try to put the original one back in the phone does not boot unless i plug the charger in first then it works as normal. So every time i take the batt out i have to plug it in to the wall before i can use it? Pretty much destroys the point in why i got a spare battery

I dont know whats happening but provide the following details and someone here might be able to help.
- which ROM are you using? If stock then which region?
- since when did you start getting this problem?
- did this issue arise after you installed any application?
- did you always used the official smassung charger and battery?
Phone signal is draining out.. not to be negative but looks like you going to have a huge bill this month.

Looks like your phone crashed or froze during a period so it couldn't read the battery statistics.
Stock 2.3.4 from south east england always used default charger, not installed any new apps for weeks now. Happend after a crash followed by automatic restart. Random.

Hi, I'm running stock unbranded rom not rooted.
Recently my battery has stopped lasting over 24h, used to get near 48h with similar usage.
I took a screen shot of my battery stats, do they look normal?

Cell Standby Fix i would try .

What's those 'dips' in your graph? It seems to have OK drain but at some points it's sucking the juice out of the battery.
If you're rooted, please create a BetterBatteryStats log over several hours then attach it. (BBS has a free APK here on Xda)

That's purely cosmetic, and doesn't change the time the phone lasts.

What's the screen time?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I think the dips are when I've returned to my phone after a period of inactivity. I don't call much or text at all, I just browse the Internet and use Tapatalk.
I will root my phone and try the battery app this weekend (when I have more time) if the drain continues.
Thanks all for your comments

Before I go through the horrible process of re-loading everything, I saw this ROM on Sammobile and would like to know if it solves the battery drain problem.
It is said to be UK, and released in Dec 2012 - anyone any views on it?
TIA

can you install CPU SPY and leave tab for day or some time, and tell us, does it go to deep sleep ? or sometimes its stays @ 216mhz.
thanks

As Mausas suggested, have you looked at CPUSpy to see if it actually goes to deep sleep like it should?

Over the weekend, I was out all day both days and I had pretty good battery life (easily lasted all day). Today, I was at work and on wifi all day and it died by 5:30pm (with 38min screen on time). Today was particularly bad but I've had horrible battery life every day that I've been at work. The only difference I can think of is wifi, since I actually use my phone less while I'm at work.
I've seen lots of discussion about issues with battery life that seemed to be caused by some wifi bug but I'm not sure if there's a conclusive fix other than just waiting for 5.1. Does anyone know why it only affects some users? Every review I've read says that they get 3-4h screen on time and I would have to guess that at least some reviewers use wifi.
I've disabled volte, smart network switch, and wifi calling, but those have not helped. Any other suggestions?
Gotta wait for 5.1. Same thing happened on Nexus 5.
