[Q] Battery discharging too fast with AOKP, suggestions? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HI all,
i've flashed yestarday the AOKP and I think that is almost perfect. The biggest problem is that battery discharge really too fast.
What do you suggest me for this problem? Is CyanogenMod 10 better then aokp?
Thanks

You can only try roms and look to your apps that may waste battery .

Its not necassirily a problem with your ROM, Install BBS (BetterBatteryStats) from the playstore and find out what is consuming your battery, pay inparticular attention to any wakelocks. Although I am on a TW based rom I too had this I reflashed the ROM and this resolved my problem, If it is a wakelock find out whats causing it.

[Q] Battery Drain! Kernel/bandbase problem???

Hi guys, im using the latest litening rom on my galaxy s2 - i didnt really use the stock rom, because ... you know ...
However, i installed it and i was suprising how fast the battery went gone!
Maybe i did something wrong... but i installed the rom over the stock rom as told on the litening thread! the kernel was installed with the rom!
since then ive tried many things and the speedmod kernel. ive also read some posts about the litening rom, about some users having really good battery life!
Am i doing something wrong? did i forget anything? does the kernel do a big diffrence? what baseband should i use?
I am using only Wlan and some games! Ive tried freezing apps flashing other kernels and some other things!
PLEASE HELP ME! i dont know what to do!

Ok i locatet a problem! a game called 'virtual playground took about 50% life! but i want to know what i can do in general to revent the draining!
i always keep wifi bluetooth and gps off. no backgroundapps and no widgets!
is there a good kernel to use with liteningrom that saves energy? i heard much about the speedmod and nympetamine - or what the hell its called - wich one is better? and does the bandbase effect the battery life in any way?

Stop using the phone if you want the battery to stop draining. If you have, and it still does (rapidly), look into BetterBatteryStats to find what's waking your phone.

U should wait for a cpl of battery re-charge cycles for now to get good batt life, also try to turn off auto sync,location service, wifi/data when not in use
2) can i customize my lock screen to show notifications?
No, its not Possible for now

jb based ROMs sometimes are affected with the media scanner issue. Should flash another jb based ROM and see what happens; or else go stock jb leak.
Thanks dear

You shoudl check roms thread see if others have and if there is a solution. If not downgrade to previous version try re-flashing rom/kernel etc or try other rom.

CyanogenMod 10.1.3 stable battery drain

Hi! Yesterday evening I installed the stable version of CyanogenMod 10.1.3 . I noticed that the battery is really poor. I use it for 3 hours and it fall down to 50% just texting and a little of facebooking. I used the betterbatterystats to see what was wrong. It report a. RILJ process using over the 70% of battery! Ho can I fix it? If you have installed the ROM did you notice this battery drain?

I didn't change nothing. I am in area where there's lot of signal infact my stock rom didn't use to have this battery drain.
I am facing the same problem, but don't know how to solve it, this rom is extremely fast but cause of battery drain i will go back to stock
I have the same issue.
I'm italian too and my operator is Wind.
Maybe we have to change the modem?

Hi,
I have the same problem, after 8 hours unused (Cyanogenmod 10.1.3) I have battery drain ~8%. :crying:
I returned to stock rom 4.1.2 (I9300XXELKC_I9300OXXELK4_XEO) and after 8 hours unused I have battery drain only ~2% !! :victory:
I checked Omega Rom, AOKP Rom and Cyanogenmod 10.1.3 all roms quickly drain battery
In my stock Android 4.1.2 I can use my phone ~3/4 days :good:
please help because Cyanogenmod is a great system but battery life terrible
greetings from Poland
Hi italian mates,
I have the same damn problem. I changed kernel, from siyah to boeffla to googy. Terrible battery drain around 8% in idle...
So is the CM that cause this...
Anyone tried Omni rom? I can't think of heading back to ToucjWiz

if you're just on CWM try to flash the last omnirom's nightly and WIPE all you can(data -cache -dalvik cache)
someone has 0,5-1% battery drain in idle
and max 10% in use

I WIPE all (data -cache -dalvik cache) it does not help even when I changed governor and frequency (from 1,4mhz to 800 mhz because I do not use full power) it did not help :crying:
On my phone unfortunately works best stock rom
I am on last neatrom 4.1.2 with siyah kernel. Extreme good battery life. 14hrs with heavynusage, 3hrs screen on
Italian here, same problem with cm.. but i can't came back to stock... cm its much smooth and fast... i think that i will try omni as some people have just 0,5% drain x hour in idle..

Battery sudden draining

Last couple of weeks, with different ROMs I have a strange issue where the screen suddenly starts to flicker in within seconds the
battery drains to being completely empty.
I don't even have a chance to get into BBS and check what process is the culprit.
Any idea what might be causing this problem?

Your ROM might be the issue.. Does this happens with all ROM or what? Which ROM are you using?

This happens on samsung based roms like Neatrom, Imperium & ARHD
also happens with CM11 OMNI and SLIM.
tested all these roms with full wipe and clean install.
Could it be a bad battery ?

First check if this happens with stock ROM not the stock based ones.. And if same happens with complete stock than yes it can be battery issue.
Your battery is inflated? If yes, I think that you need a new battery

I was facing same issue...i change my battery as it has 2 years old. So i resolved.

s2: drain problem!

ho to all i've bought an used s2 that has a problem with the battery. it drains very fast, even with al services disabled. i've bought a brand new samsung battery and also a non original battery with more mha, but the phone discharges always very fast. i'v try to recalibrate the battery with no results...i've last cyanogen rom on it
try change ROM or kernel
Wich rom and kernel do you suggest me
My suggestion:
1. check your battery stats and google fixes to apps that drain ur battery
2. install greenify
3. install custom roms, my suggestion: slimsaber + dorimanx
Whats dorimanx
phantomEVO said:

Dorimanx is a kernel, not a rom.
I ve seen that slimsaber is like a beta not a stable version righe?

Hi, I have got very same problem! I spent like last two years with trying different ROMs. I tried CM, Omega, NeatROM,... but never found one ROM which will not drain battery so quickly...
My girlfriend has got Alcatel OT6010 which has got similar specs as S2 and her phone lasts for 4 days! if she is not on internet all the time. Mine with new extended battery, lasts maximum 2 days max. I am really dissapointed about that
Therefore I would like to ask someone whether he/she can recommend some stable (not alpha or beta) ROM with Android 4.1 or above. Different Kernel is also welcome.
I am looking forward for any help on this!

Your technically correct. It isn't very stable yet.

Since you've tested many roms already, the problem could be caused by old circuitry on the phone. My phone last for 2 days max without using it too, although choosing the right kernel for you could slightly increase battery life (e.g dorimanx or apolo). In terms of stability, cyanogenmod is never perfect, don't use slimsaber, neat rom was quite stable for me, paranoid android was ok, never tried cyan fox, PAC rom isn't going to be updated for a while and is nightlies only, carbon rom is nightlies only. So yeah, just go with neat rom or paranoid android (stable)or cm11 (and wait for next snapshot).
Can i use paranoid with dorimanx?
I haven't had any problems so far with slim saber.
Have you tried the app 'Greenify' yet? It can hibernate apps that drain battery in background.
Another suggestion: Tasker app
Create profiles that for example turn on / off mobile data.
2 days battery life, that's epic for the s2..I get 1 day max at the mo ...and never had much more on any ROM/kernal

Yeah you can. You just need to check what version of dorimanx you install.
There is one for ics/jelly bean and one for kitkat.
And depending on what version of s2 you have you need to check what rom you install. Not sure if dorimanx is available for i9100g
By the way in terms of battery drainage I faced the same problem.
For me it had several causes:
1. My mobile connection wasn't very good and therefore my phone got hot while searching good signal - I flashed a new modem to improve connection... If this won't help a new provider is needed I guess
2. Too many apps running in the background - as already said in a post above greenify will help there a lot as it prevents app from starting without you wanting it
3. Also I installed a new kernel - I'm using dorimanx too. It's battery profile can help a lot
4. Pure performances x (Zeno edition) my phone got a lot faster after flashing this. Also it drains less battery when being idle.
Hope this can help you.
