Don't use full brightness and make sure WiFi isn't on all the time. Those are the two main battery killers.

I just changed that but even then...shouldnt it be more....i get really annoyed because i go to the mall or something and i use it and then in the car its like 15% left charge it.....any other suggestions you got?

And is there any rom with better battery life that is stable? Btw.....any rom with 1.2ghz capability?
Sent from my Nook Tablet using xda app-developers app
I have been running CM10 0.5.3 for a little while now and it has been very stable. Honestly, I haven't had any FC's or SoDs since going from 0.5.1 to .3. Battery has been fine as well. It will sleep for 12 hours and only lose 1 or 2 % but it isn't as good as stock (and I don't expect it to be).
If you want to overclock it, you will be draining the battery even faster also.
What do you mean by overclocking?

Stock on the NT is 1Ghz (Well, 1008Mhz, or so mine says). Anything over that is overclocking. Not that that is a bad thing. If it can handle it, and it appears that it can, there is no real problem aside from the fact that the battery will discharge faster. You will probably also notice that it will run a bit warmer too if it stays up at 1.2 for any length of time.
How do i know if i overclocked? And for cm10 do i need the latest cwm
Sent from my Nook Tablet using xda app-developers app
Yes, you will need a newer version of CWM if you are on 5.0.xx. You can get SetCPU on the Play Store to check and control CPU speed as well.
Check out chrmhoffmann's thread here for just about all you need to know.
If you need to know about updating CWM, check out Veronica's (lavero.burgos) thread here.
Hope that helps!
Hey.....ummm....can you like give me specifics of everything you have experienced with this cm10 rom because i've tried a few aand theh are all unstable...im really doubtful and wanted your feed back
Sent from my Nook Tablet using xda app-developers app
Not sure what specifics I can give... I use it for reading (Aldiko, Moon Reader, Kindle, B&N, SCViewer), games (Angry Birds, Amazing Alex, Plague Inc, Rebuild, Flight Control, etc), watch videos/movies (MX Player, YouTube), Facebook, Twitter, G+ and Tapatalk as well as browsing with either Dolphin or Chrome. Plus my kids play games on it.
I turn it on, and go. If I want wifi, I turn it on and browse, download, whatever. When I'm done online, I turn wifi off. I usually put it to sleep myself with the power button, but I've had it go to sleep on its own and haven't had any issues.
Like I said, I haven't had any crashes, FCs or SoDs.
Hope that was specific enough.
And ur using ver. .5.3 not. 6?
Sent from my Nook Tablet using xda app-developers app
Correct. Only because I haven't gotten around to flashing it yet though.
Cool...so to summarize mostly stable and to flash a cwm i just flash the zip without reset or wipe.....and then i flash the rom?
Sent from my Nook Tablet using xda app-developers app
Correct. No wipe needed for the recovery, but make sure to wipe for the ROM.

Try this
note: CM7 has the greatest battery life out of all the available CMs
Step 1: Charge battery to 100%
Step 2: While tablet is still plugged into charger, hard reset phone (volume down + n)
Step 3: When tablet turns off, unplug charger
Step 4: Turn on tablet (Note: If calibration is needed, battery percentage will be less than 100%!)
Step 5: Plug in charger and charge to 100%
Step 6: Repeat until battery percentage is 100 upon restart.
or
step 1: complete discharge
step 2: leave it there for a couple hours (8)
step 3: Charge to 100%
NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE
Are you sure? Will this calibrate the battery? How long is the battery supposed to last?
Sent from my Nook Tablet using xda app-developers app
I did that and its lasted about 4 hours about 65% ive also got the app that turns off wifi when you lock screen....and brightness low...is that what its supposed to be?

With medium/heavy use I only get about 5-6 hours before needing to recharge. That's with wifi on the whole time.

I'm currently running Kenneth's latest Alien ROM and I get a battery life of about 6 hours. I've tried letting the battery die out , fully charging, then doing a battery wipe. Also tried Jug's fix. All they seem to fix is a battery jump issue but I wish that was all it was. Any other things that might help? I really don't have the money for a new battery.

Sounds like your battery may just have a problem. Do you know anyone else w/an Atrix that you could swap batteries for like an hour and see if the problem follows the battery?
@epoh The only other person I know that has one lives about 2.5 hours away lol.
It kinda makes me curious if an SBF flash back to 1.83 would fix it. I only had this issue after flashing HKTW on a low battery.

Have you tried AURA 1.1.1 ROM?
I don't know if you even want to give any other ROM a shot, but I have used Alien ROM # 2, too many issues and was not patient enough.
Flashed AURA 1.1.1, after that 2 issues with my battery are fixed, one is the battery life, I usually get around 15 hours from fully charged at 8 AM when I leave for work, so I usually charge just once a day. Second issue with Alien was my phone was overheating like a frying pan.
It just happened with any other ROMs I have tried so far but with AURA maximum temp I have seen on my phone is not more than 38 Degree C. With other ROMS it was just above 38 all the time.
If you don't mind flashing different ROM, try it.
Basically what I do is load into CMW
Wipe Battery Stats
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Wipe Cache
Wipe Data
Install ZIP
Reload Phone and use it for a bit
Process the battery stats wipe cycle twice
Battery is just normal now
Good Luck
It seems to me to be obvious issues with GB right now..which is disappointing because I was expecting it to get better. I went from 16+ hours of usage (with 2-4hrs of onscreen time) to about 8-10. I've went from Orange 2.3.4 to CherriPi now to Alien #3 with both the 1.1 o/c kernel as well as the stock kernel..with no improvements. I did notice a slight improvement when I turned the Social Applications from Push to 60mins..but still am nowhere near where I was with Froyo (yes..I've tried xploited's tips as well). I know its not my apps or configurations because none of that has changes since 2.2..

Can I ask real quick some questions? First off what do you have running as far as processes, cause for instance if Tune in Radio is left on running in background it KILLS my battery life. If I forget to exit it. Also, did you freeze any bloatware that alien didn't? example. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=972459 Also, what kernel are you using? Are you overclocking? Over / undervolting? Just trying to get a better idea of what's up unless I missed it in a previous post. But I think I read em' all.
@phalanx I haven't frozen anything. I'm using the last Alien full build including kernel. The only apps I have installed are facebook, google+, and XDA premium app. The thing that is supposedly killing my battery is phone idle. It's doing slightly better today than it has been. It says it's got about 10 hours so far. But it's still nowhere near the 12-16 I used get.

Just finally worked out how to flash, root, etc and finally getting to CM7 (noobie here go easy :3) so i basically used the noob tutorial over in the x10 general area. So I'm CM7 everythings working fine its alot snappier and i love it, but the battery life on it isn't so great while in use when im not using it its fine but it just appears to be chewing the juice a little more compared to the stock 2.3.3.. any ideas guys?

What are your screen settings? They should be auto brightness off, screen on lowest brightness, and screen timeout on 15 seconds.
What are your other settings, the GPS settings should be off, along with Bluetooth, and wifi unless your using it.

The way I do it is to drain the phones battery till it dies, then charge it when the phone is off. Wait till its done, then turn on the phone to see if your at 100%. That should do the trick, but a better method is by a member with the name of omegared has a guide for battery calibrating. I recommend finding the guide. Its in the general section of the x10 section. Hope this helps.

Calibration is simple
Charge your phone to 100%
Switch off
Boot into xRecovery, goto advanced options, wipe battery stats, yes
Reboot
Pull the battery with charger connected
Reinsert after 10secs
Note that battery is now at 88%
Again charge to 100%...
Repeat for 4-5times.
CALIBRATED!

How long was your screen on? If 1.5 hours or so, I would say your close to normal depending on what you were doing.
Get Better Battery Stats and see how long your phone is in Deep Sleep..and if not very long, you can see what is keeping it awake..
I didn't use it at all; I checked it after first block and it had lost about 10 percent. Then I checked it after second and that's what it was at

Your pic says the screen took 44% of the power. Consider the signal strength in your school. If you have a weak signal the phone uses more power. Maybe try airplane mode for part of the day. Also, I have found I get better battery life on the network as opposed to my school's wireless. The school's wireless is always polling the phone resulting in greater drain.
Here's the link to Better Battery Stats on XDA... FREE XDA versions are found at the bottom of post #2. I/We don't have your phone so other than general statements we are of little help. Get BBS and see what is using the juice...that's how I found out the school's wireless was waking my phone all the time.

well from what i see you have google now or some transit app running. those tend to take up a ton of battery. use the bettery battery stats that someone posted and see whats running. once you find out you can use an app like autostarts to keep stuff like that not running when it doesnt need to.
Also another way to tell whats running is to go to settings > apps > running. if you see a process you dont like running just kill it and try to stop it with autostarts. I know from experience that facebook is one of these pain in the a$$ apps that always wants to be running for some god forsaken reason. Anyway just start with that. thats probably your main problem as i can also see you have juice defender, which is probably helping battery.
There wasn't a download for it; only someone's text information. Does anyone have an APK for it? I don't have the money for it Before school starts tomorrow I'll be sure to kill running apps. Also, I wasn't on the school's Wi-Fi at any point because we don't have Wi-Fi, my high school is poor. Lol

autostart app won't run in foreground so you don't have to kill it. it'll stop access as it needs to based on what you disabled from automatically starting. be careful what you prevent from starting up cause it can defect your setup requiring a fresh flash install
This is my battery life just a few minutes before I posted it yesterday; I took it off the charger at the same time. For some reason yesterday the android system ran much longer than today; the difference is obvious on my battery life.

A good thing to do would be, charge it Friday night, take it off the charger Saturday morning and let it sit on the counter of 1 hour, preferably 2 hours, then check to see what has been waking it up. You can google what you find to determine what process they're related to if not obvious to you.
Obvious total noob here. I've read all the thunderbolt reference material here and have followed a couple of tutorials on how to root my thunderbolt, but I keep finding broken mirrors.

So far I'm digging it. It's been considerably faster and seemingly more reliable than stock. The past two years have been hateful and I wish I would have rooted a long time ago.

Sounds like a battery. I typically charge overnight and I'm good from about 7-4. Then I charge on the 30 min drive home and I'm good until the nightly charge. I've never seen exceptional battery life even with JuiceDefender. Right now it's bad but not quite like yours. I was on a third-party battery, though. I just swapped to the HTC battery and I'll see how it is. I think I'm going to turn JD off as well to see how SkyRaider managers on its own.

This was typical for me.
I recommend turning off 4G. It's not really useful anyways unless you're trying to download something. Calibrate the battery also. Turn down your screen brightness and backlight timing. Also adjust how often accounts sync. Slow your CPU speeds.
You should be set after that.

Yeah, I only use 4G if I'm doing file transfers or tethering. I need to look at underclocking. How often do you sync? I have a number of accounts that I check every 15 min. I could probably increase that to 30.

Some of these are apps you can change within the apps settings, such as Facebook. I usually sign on before it syncs anyways.
Definitely checks your social apps and change the update intervals. It's basically the same thing.

I finally hit 14% 12 hours after disconnecting from the AC charger. I guess that's not too bad.

You need to realize the stock battery is only 1450. So very small for a 4g phone. I have found juice defender only made my wallet lighter. You might want to look in to an aosp ROM as it gives you better battery life. I personally disable auto sync and turn off GPS. Also while I am at work I disable data as SMS and MMS doesn't come over mobile data part. In the end some people carries more than one battery on them if they won't be in a place they can charge.

This is the screenshot its a straight drop over the hours mentioned ... slope stays steady so its Constant power drain until I noticed ( you can see on the graph)
None of those apps were open, and I had done a restart right before. ( I fell asleep which is why I know I wasn't using it)

Skype and Words with Friends destroy battery life if you don't completely kill them. Show us the top of your usage stats, not the graph.

+1. Or show both. Apps that stay on data/wifi will murder battery, even on eco mode.

Right after I rooted mine I had terrible battery as well. I ended up reformatting (not wipe, actually formatting my system and caches) and then installed my rom again, fixed permissions and my battery life has been amazing. If I don't use the phone my battery maybe drains five percent all day long. If I use it a lot it will last most of the day as well.

The other thing you should check is you fast dormancy.
If you're flashing custom ROMs it's best to do it at a FULL 100% charge. In the past, before I started doing this, I had major battery life "problems." My phone would drop from 100 to 1 in a matter of hours and just hang on 1% for hours on end. If you haven't done this, download Battery Calibration, turn off your device and plug it in. Once it reaches 100%, turn the device on, run the app, and restart your device WHILE STILL PLUGGED IN. Once everything settles you should be good to go.
