Using XDA premium through A5

You could reduce cell standby battery usage by turning 3G/data off when not using it.

I think you meant by Jusada ...
Anyway... How is data signal strenght in your region?? When it is slow, the phone keeps loosing and retrieving signal which causes it to be constantly searching for networks and that could be what is draining your battery.
Sorry for my bad english!
Try this tweak. Its awesome -

Try Under Clocking CPU, say 480 Mhz while Data connection is enabled. I am getting enough battery life after UC.
If you don't know much about Clocking, search xda forums.

I don't use 3G at all on my Ace, I always leave it on Edge or wifi for a little bit and I get a pretty decent battery life. Running Jusada's ICS Final with Slaid's LagFree script. I get about 10-12 hrs depending on my use.
check cynogenmod settings
Please check the Cynogenmod settings > performance settings > cpu settings. Minimum value will be 122 mhz . But the max value will not be set by default. Set that to 806 mhz . And check the battery drain. In my case same issue happened and now it's just ok.

Here are some steps you could use to save battery while you use the Jusada ROM
.Download SetCPU! and underclock your phone to 480Mhz!
.Decrease the brightness!
.Use wifi only while you charge your phone!
.If you are in an area where data connection is not available change ur service provider!
.Decrease your gaming and listening to music (if you do so)
Press thanks if I helped you!

It clearly is a battery calibration issue. Install battery calibration from the android market. Charge to 100% and that's then re-calibrate. That should bring about major changes. My battery went from 4 hours to 9 hours.
Try infiniti and the myth ics rom best for battery backup.and then recalibrate it

opinion is like an @$$h°|€
everyone has one
Check if you have set "Use only 2G" turn off auto-synchronizing. If this doesn't help check then new Battery extender alpha 2 kernel based on zImage.
I use the same rom, but kernel by anonymous...working well with 3G on..

Turn OFF live wallpapers.. If ur using MAps freeze it using system tuner pro or LINK2SD(If u hav one)... Freezing some user apps not only frees memory, also improves battery life..

Let the above user help him. Your reply dont make any sense.. Another ROM may have some tweaks which can affect battery backup by 10-12%
Peace

However if you've already tried tweaks the only way is to buy a new battery or a new phone

Wait for his reply before jumping all these premature conclusions. Simple
I already know what is causing his problems, but he has to first post his ROM & kennel details before i can proffer any solution for him.

Please download better battery stats from the xda app section to see wakelocks and cpu spy from the play store to see if your device is deep sleeping.

Battery calibration apps don't work. The s2 calibrates its own battery. You can try to reset fuel gauge chip through extweaks if you are using siyah kernel, but I have not seen a difference when I do that

You would be needing a Battery calibration app, if you think your battery drains that much fast. Just try this app and see whether it works. Also install an app called "CPU Spy" to check whether Deep Sleep is working properly.
SetCPU is better than JD for saving battery.

[Q] Kernel (Android OS) sucking my battery !! Can Anyone help ??

I have GSam battery monitor installed on my Note 3 (SM-900) running stock JB 4.3 (MK1) ....
Since a last few days I have witnessed battery drain on my phone without any apparent reason....I charge my phone to 100% at night (wifi & 3G data is off at night) & when I wake up after about 8 to 9 hours of sleep I find that the battery is down to 85% !!! Strange isn't it ...
GSam battery monitor says that nearly 67% of battery is used by "App Usage" , on clicking App Usage for bifurcation of battery usage I find that nearly 50% of my battery is used up by "Kernel (Android OS)"......How to control this , any help will be appreciated dear forum friends !!
Please help me to solve this....

No...
Do you have Google Now turned on? If so try turning off location reporting in Google maps and see if it helps, it's made a huge difference on mine.
Turning the location off helps. The GPS kills the battery.
