this is the only reason i hate CM7. it drains battery like hell. yes, im already using "conservative" cpu governor and have JuiceDefender installed.
when i was on the stock LG rom, battery life used to be about 3-3.5 days on normal usage. after flashing with CM7 (the latest stable version), i need to charge it every night. if i do a lot of net surfing, battery will last for only 15 hrs.
is there some other gingerbread rom with which i can get back the normal battery life?
ive never tried this rom but ive read that rjtchn's cm7 has good battery life. the last time i checked his rom isnt on xda but u can google his rom

First, you can go back to Froyo by flashing the stock ROM through KDZ. But all your data would be wiped out. Take backups.
And regarding battery backup, I think 25 hours of battery backup on moderate-heavy usage is fine. I'm not sure whether we can get 3 days on froyo with the same usage. I didnt use froyo much as I immediately rooted my phone and flashed CM7 based ROMs.
On Andy's ROM with Andy's kernel, I can get 25 to 30 hours with heavy usage, with 6 hours of sleeping period in between. So it is 20-24 hrs of almost constant heavy usage.
void. #forever
I'm using void. #forever with Franco's v18 BFS kernel.
I had 2 days & 20 hours with moderate calls, SMS & browsing. I think I could have reached 3 days until an exercise app surprisingly kept my phone awake & drained the remaining battery.
Using GB 2.3.3 - at the moment for testing purposes GingerCriccoROM 1.2 and latest Franco GB kernel. 3G data always on, sync on, (fb, twitter, gmail, email etc. autom. check every 30min.) Calls, sms, browsing, pretty heavy use and i got after first full charge and battery stats wipe 1d 14h - still 6% left. OC 480/729 smoothass. Still testing - at the moment i have 30% battery left after 1d and 7h.
i run void #forever and franco kernel
it usually last about 2 days on average (48+hr), i dont use the phone functions that much, mostly just browsing the news and sometimes GPS when i get lost out there, but i keep wifi/background/sync always on since i rely on gmail/gtalk/gvoice heavily
horrible battery life
flashed rjtchn's cm7 just now. And havent even restored backups yet. And as I surf on xda now on my wifi, battery is decreasing by 1% every 2 mins in front of my eyes.... it was 100% at 5.35pm and its 89 at 6.04pm now..... WTH is happening? Also to mention, I had bought my phone only a month ago with incredible battery till I started flashing Roms...
I'm using. Rover theme. Does that have. Anything to do with battery?
I had wiped battery Stat when my phone was in 100%, then I flashed the rom, rebooted, and then connected to USB mass storage for 20 mins to do transfers. ( it got charged again). Anything wrong in this process?

I am wrestling with battery life. Not being able to run 24hrs on one charge seems silly to me.
To use some round numbers, from best to worst given my standard usage patterns: {0}
48 hrs (2% per hr drain) -- stock LG 2.2 ROM rooted, crapware removed, SetCPU onDemand 122-600. Consistently runs 48hrs on a full charge.
24 hrs (4% per hr drain) -- stock ROM as it came out of the box.
18 hrs (5-6% per hr) -- CM7 RC1 unchanged. It seems closer to 5% per hour when I set onDemand in CM perf settings to 122-600 and tore out the launcher (using the delightful Zeam instead)
I can go to sleep with my OptT on the bedstand and wake up 8 hrs later and it's dropped from 100% to 60%.
I did do a brief test of Void forever and like the cleanliness of it. But development appears to be ended so no hope of BT working well or battery optimization. If I had an extra T500/509 I'd send it to the dev so he could continue testing. I did run it for a few hours but after I tested BT I didn't have the heart to go install all my crap on it for extensive testing. {EDIT: going to try it out today and see if I can hit 48hrs with it}
I am a big CM fanboi so I would love to hang in there with Mik until BT and battery are better. I mentioned battery drain in a (pre-CM7RC1) thread once and it was not well received, so I haven't mentioned it again until this thread.
If BT and battery don't eventually get improved (and I assume they will) I'll stick with the stock, rooted ROM.

i checked. the only "app" having max. usage is android system . and it is a fresh flash. i had formatted the sd card also. and i dont use mobile data or gps, i use only wifi. and im not on a 3g network (because my operator hasnt even launched 3g ).
now the time here is 9:22pm and batt. is 63%. the only thing i did was surfing and mail checking on wifi.

I'm on gingerlol with paolos kernel. I use my phone for a few messages a day and about 1 call per day. Playing around with the phone depends, somedays more somedays less. Battery lasts 2 to 3 days. Can't remember having more juice on stock froyo.

Same here! Just remember to change the governer to sth like on-demand or conservative!
Well... reading you guys talking about 2-3 days of battery life makes me think that I'm either doing something wrong, or my battery is a bit damaged, 'cause the only way I could think my Optimus One would last for 2-3 days would be with no use at all.
I got this phone from a friend who had owned for only 2 months and the phone was already rooted and with a custom ROM already installed (Light 2.2.2 which is fairly close to stock). With that ROM the battery would last for a day max.
Shortly after I started installing other custom ROMs and testing them:
- Devoid Froyo Final: The most responsive ROM I've tried, but I had horrible battery life with it, with only around 18 hours of bat with moderate use and 3G on.
- OpenOptimus: Seems a bit laggy to me, and battery life was not even better than Devoid's
- LOL 1.4.2: I finally settled with this one. The ROM is pretty responsive (although not as snappy as Devoid) and at least with this one I can have a full day of battery life (sometimes a bit more).
I must say that I always keep an eye on apps running in the background and stop those I know I don't need always running. I also use Titanium Backup to "Freeze" apps that I know I won't use on a daily basis (like Google Maps and Navitel GPS).
The other thing I'd like to mention is that I keep GPS off (unless I specifically need it), but I always have data ON, either via Wifi when I'm at home, or 3G when I'm out of home. My Wifi Sleep Setting is set to "Never".
The only two apps that I know are working regularly on my phone are:
K9 Mail: Receiving mails for 5 Gmail accounts (all configured as PUSH so that shouldn't drain much battery)
Whatsapp: Receiving messages from friends and family, but that app is also PUSH so battery drain should be minimal also.
Overnight drain with Wifi On is about 5%
What do you guys think?
BTW... probably during this week I'll flash one of the 2.3.3 based ROMS (GingerLOL). I hope that being a "LOL" Rom it would be as stable as my current one.
Not a long test, but I did put all my apps back onto void #forever for an apples to apples test.
Set it on my nightstand and we both slept for 6 hrs. 100% down to 66% in 6hrs, for a drain rate of 5.7% per hour. Gack.
I suspect the real killer is the broken CM7 bluetooth stack in our devices at the moment, but since I use my phone gets used as a wireless mp3 player most of the time I really need it. When CM7 for OptT gets a fix for BT I think It will be nearly perfect for my needs.

my battery life isnt that good either. but then again more performance=less battery life
Void #forever is truly the best rom I have ever tried.... The best thing on it is that its "void" and u can choose which stock aps to install. Thnx a lot guys for recommending me this rom.
Rjtchn's rom had better performance. Quadrant score was 1005 without overclocking(i don't remember the exact). Void's score is 840. But it has incredible battery.
Its the first rom I have ever seen with cell standby having the max bat. usage on 2g network. (all others had android system). That means just by putting on flight mode, things would go even better

It's a balance issue, I guess.
I was researching another issue and so set my phone (as described below) down for 20hrs 23mins and it is now at 84% battery. 23.3hrs / 16% battery usage = ~0.75% per hour.
Compare that with 5-6% an hour I was getting with CM7 on the bedstand. I suggest that CM7RC1 is , despite it's general wonderfulness, not providing 6x the performance for 6x the battery drain.
I am a CM faboi and have done the "buy Cyanogen a beer" thing on his site. I eagerly await CM7 going gold for our devices, and I hope the battery/performance balance is on parity.
Hi all,
Since I started using Lite'ning ROM v2.1 I noticed that my battery was draining very fast.
I went to my battery use and I saw that "Android system"was using 44% of my battery. Wake time is almost 6 hours...
Is this a known bug or is there a solution to this?

If the rom you are using is not yet a fully stable rom then it could have battery drain problems, although battery drain is usally how you use your phone. Look what apps are running when you notice your battery running down fast, as it could be one of those.
When im at work i actually only use whatsapp, and sometimes facebook while im on break. But my WiFi is off all the time then, only whatsapp and battery monitor were active. With 2.3.4 this wasn't a problem and my battery would be 60% when i came home...
Either google wakelocks and how to pin-point them, or wipe and install NO apps afterwards, run it for a day and if the same problem go to another rom till it's more stable .
What works fine in 2.3.4 has no garuntee's that it will work an experimental ICS build of any sort.
i have similar problem. my galaxy is on wanamlite 9.6, which base on LP7. after 5 hours of not intensive using, i have 65% battery left, android OS use 68% of this battery, most of time my wi-fi is off. when is on, drain battery very fast, over night even up to 20%. when i was on ginger bread it took around 6% - 8% with data and wi-fi on.

Do you have many widgets?
Especially Beautiful Widgets and Fancy Widget (moreover if you activate the meteo forecast) will constantly drain your batter in search for your position. Wifi uses less juice than 3G connections.
Happened to me back at GB 2.3.4. Battery went down to 60% in 3 hours (at the office I'm on G...so even worse cuz the battery compensates for the lack of coverage). After I removed Fancy Widgets from the screen everything went back to normal.
Don't have any widgets as far as I know, only the clock and twitter...
Today battery is know at 26% after 11 hours on battery. Process stil at 39% battery use.
I searched the web and found that there are a lot of users having this problem, especially with the Google Nexus.

Om nom nom, battery *burp* But at least it's running on 200MHz and not 1200
Guess I might have to take another look at Siyah, and hope 3 is more stable than 2 was, kept having freezes with that one
After updating from official 2.3.6 XILA3 to 4.0.3 LP3 I expect a huge drop from <30 to about 10 then the phone die completly.
Attached battery graph.
This is the genuine 2000mah battery, and with GB 2.3.6 duration is about 3 days with GPS-3G.
i have migrated to ICS resurrection 1.1 from checkrom and find the battery life is better even though there is more stuff running in memory and more widgets.

Battery problem after updating I9100XXLPQ (ICS)
After updating to ICS try to switch on data connection, now try to switch on wifi.. it tries for some time and after 10 mins or so.. battery is completely drained out.
Is anyone facing the same problem ???
I haven't had the same experience as you but i have been very happy with Ressurection Remix 1.1. With the standard kernel it comes with.
I get around 1.5 days from a charge..... try it out.
Many talk about the Siyah kernel being good too, it has more options for battery saving/ performance.
Hope you figure it out

I am facing battery drain issue from the day i installed some custom roms and i changed back to stock from 4.1.2 to 4.2.2 to 4.3 latest I9300XXUGMK7.
I am rooted, installed facebook , whatsapp , and some photo apps & games too.
hardly i used it for a 2d game for 7 mins, and you can see battery stats in photos.
Is it something left that Odin does not flashes??? or the screen takes too much battery (im on auto +5 always)
I Pasted EFS partition Data 2 times between custom roms because of imei error on some roms including going back to stock rom.
I see some high ones : chrome taking 10% , android system 10%, Screen 39% and rest are low.
I checked with wakelock detector that facebook is waked device for 175 times. but not showing major in battery status.
I checked my cell standby overnight after charging without using, its 5% in 10 hours.
I have another s3 stock battery dated 2013 and my was from 2012 dec. On both batteries the drain remains same.
Can someone provide me any solution?
Hardly i used mobile screen for 2 hours total.

First, MK7 build doesn't considered the lastest available (which is NA7).
Second, there are some reports on noticed battery drain in stock MK7, so your use case matches the overall average with this build.
Solutions:
1- (If from some reason, you prefer to stay with this stock build): Use greenify in order to hibernate unwanted apps, disable Sync, make sure that wifi isn't on 'always scan' mode and disable location services.
2- flash newest NA7 build.
3- Use custom rom (the newest Sammy's Neatrom is just awesome), and if you don't like what you get- use adjustable kernels (such as Boeffla) to suit your needs

In theory most MM Roms should have better battery life then Oxygen OS. But it really depends on your usage is: screen brightness, type of games etc. I get about average 5 hours SOT but that's 10% brightness and bowser/social media only no games.

I saw that android system is using 39% of the battery.
I guess the battery drain is due to viper4android i flashed it yesterday.i've disabled it now will test the battery today and if the problem persist i'll be forced to change the rom.

Yes currently m trying without it let's what the result comes out to be.
I've seen rumors with RR that in the latest build (5.7.1) that the FM Radio app, which is part of either Android System or CyanogenMod System has been causing a high drain. I disabled it with Titanium Backup and so far my battery has leveled out for me..
I've uninstalled fm radio (with root explorer) and the battery drain is still there for me. 40% of battery is used by google play services, and that could be just about anything behind it.
I'm now thinking of wiping everything, starting from a fresh rom and installing only a few apps per day. RR still looks like the best rom to me.

I've uninstalled fm radio (with root explorer) and the battery drain is still there for me. 40% of battery is used by google play services, and that could be just about anything behind it.

Have u tried the sultanized RR?
I'm on sultan's RR, did a clean wipe and reformatted all the partitions (system cache and data) as f2fs. We'll see how it goes.
I forgot to check last night, in the morning I had about 35% battery left but I have no idea how much I started with.
It doesn't seem to drain the battery quite as much, at least when I check the battery stats it doesn't show google play services using 40%, it's more like 5%.
So I think I'll stick with sultan
Ok, I made sure to put on airplane mode in the evening, and the battery way around 85%. When I woke up it was 50% - massive battery drain for no reason.
I checked the battery history and I'm shocked to find this (attached)!
Wifi remains on, regardless of airplane mode!
So the phone is asleep, that's good, screen remains off, that's also good, gps and mobile signal are off - but why the hell is wifi still on?!
I think this rom would show some real promise if wifi could be turned off, because otherwise it doesn't drain battery via google play services.
Battery drain for the past couple of days
I have been experiencing long battery drains for the past one week. Every alternate day , the battery drains from 75 or 80 to 0% in less than a couple of hours. Don't have an idea which is the culprit for this. Any help on what to do?

Probably location services. Until it gets fixed, I'm just keeping location services off, and turning on as needed. Not ideal, but it works.
There's a conversation about it in http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/development/rom-resurrection-remix-t3334655
I've tried all the ROMs, messing with location services, greenify and all that, and in the end I've opened a support ticket with Oneplus. It turns out my battery was faulty, got the phone back, flashed RR ROM and I'm back to 4-5% drain overnight, instead of 50-60%. Also battery no longer drains when the phone is switched off.
I had it on pre-order, so I guess they had some issues with the first devices, which are hopefully fixed now.
