I am using bionix v and people are reporting 20+ hours of battery life using the battery left widget.. and when using my battety left widget (nearly fully calibrated) it tells me I have 9 hours left.. what's the deal? Is this a battery issue, and could I need a replacement. I have had battery issues with nearly all of my roms in the past. I guess it could be a conditioning issue. Please help

Something is probably running in your background. Download watch dog task manager and see wwhat is running on your backgrounnd.

It says that there is nothing wrong. What are the normal voltages of my battery, like what should they be?

I just flashed mine on Sunday and charged it overnight. I ended up getting just under 42 hours of life out of it without doing to battery recondition.

Not possible by someone who actually uses there phone. I never thought I was a heavy user but seeing replies like above I have to be past the definition of heavy user. With my extended battery I could get 2.5 days on a single charge.
Im also having battery drain with bionix newest rom. Nothings changed in my day-day usage. probably flash another modem or something.
I think I might switch to stock froyo if things don't get better. Or just order a new battery. Because it just drops like a rock. And im using watchdog but it doesn't really help that much. Or could someone with experience with battery drain guide me on how to stop it from happening?

Something tells me you have a bad battery if you've always had battery issues. Did you get your phone from T-Mobile? If so call them and tell them your battery is bad--they should send you a new one for free.

I flashed on saturday and started having issues with the battery on monday. On tuesday my battery drained in less than 5 HOURS! I reconditioned the battery and added juice defender @ 5 this morning. I just plugged in my charger about 20 minutes ago. Went down to 5%.

Yes I got it from t-mobile but I have not used stock long enough to see whether it was just a rom issue. I have only flashed team whiskeys roms and they seem to kill my battery. Nero v3 was the best but still wasn't great. I leave around 6:30 in the morning and maybe use the phone to get on xda, engadget, facebook, etc for about 1 hour, But my battery drops like a rock when I do this. And ever since bionix v it has only gotten worse. From that one hr of usage it drops 40 percent. Is hsdpa that big of a battery-killer? Because on wifi it seems to do a little better. Idk if this is just a network issue or what? Like right now it dropped 2 percent just from typing this up. brightness is less than half and everything is set to manually refresh. Wth?

Everything else seems to be fine. The consistency of the battery is weird..

Had terrible battery life as well with bionix v. Double checked to see if anything was running in the background and reconditioned my battery. Even then I was still getting atrocious battery life. Oh well I ended up switching back to axura which imo offers great performance and battery life. Not saying TW roms are bad (nero v3 was amazing) give Masters axura a shot if you haven't.

Does axura come with titanium backup or does it not wipe your data? I would like to keep my settings and apps if I do end up switching

My battery life isn't that great. I am going to turn off lagfix and see if there is any improvements.
I don't think lag fix had anything to do with battery that much, all it sites is change the filesystem right? And with bionix v I got over 24hrs battery

Well I think I finally conditioned correctly, and watchdog is notifying me about programs that are using lots of of cpu. So I'll see how today goes. 9:00 AM right now. Let's see how long it takes to die
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Seems to be dying much faster in standby mode
Edit: nevermind it seems to be doing well enough for the time being. Talked on the phone for 1 hour, texted, and went on xda and engadget. It is at 70%. On standby mode it ia doing loads better after reconditioning. Does losing 30% to doing stuff like that sound about right? Battery left says I have 7 hours 58 min remaining

With all these news leaks and roms available now it would be nice to know what people get for battery life across the different leaks and roms.
Post a pic of your battery usage and screen on time and what your using to get it
My setup is in my signature
These are the first stats since i started trying anthrax and it was all going good till the second day. i have no clue why
there are a few reasons why i created a new thread:
1.most people werent posting pic but instead just stats
2.the thread was ancient, created in november and the last post was in

I used incredicontrol to undervolt everything by 50 or 75 in incredicontrol. Using stock freqs, and ondemand governor. And used danuntzz's tool to do most of the desensing/debloating.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1382630
I also used Romtoolbox's auto start manager to keep things from opening in the background, it's probably the most helpful app I've used. Thanks next I just need the mugen 4000mAh so I'd only need to charge it on the weekends, but that thing is really expensive for a battery.
I thought these were pretty good numbers for locked and stock.

I need to figure out what's wrong with mine. I'm getting results like this with the extended VZ battery. I have to keep it plugged in all the time. Even with 4G disabled (3G still on), no wifi, no bluetooth; most days it will be dead in 8-10 hours.
Currently running 5/1 leak radios (RUU'd last week), running BAMF ICS 2.1 with the kernel that came with the Rom (1512mhz max, 384mhz min). Most syncing besides gmail is disabled.
I'll get a pic whenever i go unplugged again. I'm working remotely this week and am keeping it plugged up during conference calls.

I currently have a 3.8 battery in my release day rezound. It has pretty crappy life and I was wondering, is it worth it to buy a 3.7 battery? What are your experiences if you switched?

I've got both and I can't tell the difference between the two when using them. The only difference is the 3.7 fully charges in my battery charger, but the 3.8 only charges to like 80% just like in our early ICS days.

Take it to Verizon and have them switch it out.. they should do it no pro lem the 3.8 actually don't work right with ICS..

The 3.8v vs 3.7v thing doesn't matter anymore with ICS. It's been fixed for a looong time. Like I said, the only difference is with my external battery charger.
Edit: But yeah, if the battery performance is degrading see if they'll swap it out.

I use an external charger as well the one I had before was an OEM rezound charger it didn't fully charge my 3.8 either. the one I have now is actually made for digital cameras but it works great and fully charges my batteries in about two to three hours..you can find em at Wal-Mart by the sd cards and digital cameras. It's universal.. I charge about four different batteries everyday.. drill, two different phones, my daughters play phonn (old android with a broken charging port)

yep what ^^ they said. you're still under the umbrella of 1 year warranty so take it to them.
I've had 3.8 since the get-go. I've never over heated or had bad battery life with any of the firmware. I am currently S-Off, have the most current version of ICS, and am using a custom ROM.
I get approx. 13 hours with 2+ hours of display time and moderate use.
I recently installed the new Nukern3l on CM9. Ever since then it take forever for my phone to charge. It will actually lose its charge if I have it plugged in and I'm using it. Last night I plugged it in and had utorrent running when I went to bed, it was at 10% when I fell asleep and after 9 hours it was at 32%. I've tried different governors and it doesn't seem to affect it. Any suggestions?

You could try using the kernel I made that has fast charge enabled. If you're overclocked though that may be what is making it charge slow. To enable fast charge in my kernel you need to use incredicontrol to turn it on.

You could also try disabling wifi and data. You will still receive texts as they aren't sent over data but you won't get MMS until data is re-enabled but the phone should charge really fast. To me it sounds like you've got something running in the background draining the battery.
He did say he was downloading using utorrent. That coupled with oc would make it charge slow.

Do you have a link to your kernel with the fast charge?

I didn't really think much about that but, yeah the constant use of radio will pretty much hog juice while the phone is trying to charge. Not much you can really do about that though.

THIS is exactly what I have been looking for! Thanks!!!
I got this phone used so I'm not sure if there's something wrong with it or not. My phones battery is completely unpredictable, first off, it won't charge to 100%, the highest it goes is 95%. Next, it discharges extremely quickly. The charged % on the lock screen and the % in the notification bar are close to each other, but rarely ever the same (this includes the % displayed in my recovery too). Today my phone was at 19% when it died, so i plugged it up and when it came back on i had 9%, i rebooted once more. This time i had 57%! I mean no matter what i do its never consistent. Can someone recommend a rom+kernel combo to fix or test this? I've tried wiping the battery stats and it doesn't help.
Thanks.

That could happen if your battery is aged or it has overheated at some point so one of it's cells doesn't do it's job as it should.
