hi all.
i bought 2 new 2200mah batteries of Hyperion to my S3. and i have few questions.
when this is necessary to wipe battery stats in recovery mode? in what situations..?
Do i need to wipe battery stats every time that i change battery in my device? or only in first time or even dont need to do it at all when changing battery.......?
AFAIK wiping battery stats is not necessary, Samsung uses another method of calculating battery life and performance.

Hey guys,
So, I've only recently rooted my Galaxy S II and started flashing ROMs (currently on the official release of MIUI), and noticed that there is different practices for different ROMs when it comes to flashing from recovery...
For example, some ROMs (like the MIUI one) required you to perform a factory reset in recovery before flashing, while I've seen others (I believe CyanogenMod is an example of this) where you need to clear pretty much all of those settings (Dalvik cache, battery stats, etc. etc.).
Now, to me this seemed a little bit of a hassle to have to look up the flashing requirements of each ROM before you do so (I understand the instructions would be on the page for the ROM, but I'm thinking more along the lines of if you already had the ROMs pre-downloaded)... And I've come to learn, in the Android community more than any other, that if a procedure seems to complex, there's always an easier way to go about it.
In this case, I'm referring to a general rule-of-thumb for flashing new ROMs from recovery -- is there such a thing? For example, wiping all options (factory reset, Dalvik cache, battery stats, etc.). Or would this actually cause problems?
Sorry for the remedial question

I wipe everything other than battery before flashing any new ROM. 3 generations of android and ive always done the same thing. I only wipe battery stats if I forgot to unplug the phone during flashing the ROM because that can screw the stats up. There is a right time to wipe battery stats not just with a random amount of charge. You can do that any time, the way I do it (others may tell you different) is to let the battery run out completely, let it charge with the phone off untill its full then reboot into recovery and wipe battery stats.
Luckily we don't have to worry about re-partitioning nand and things like that.
Hi,
generally a wipe is all time the recommend if you flash between Rom!
If you flash from Rom to next version it's ok to make in with non-wipe.
Personal I wipe:
- wipe data / factory reset
- wipe cache partition
+ under "mount and" storage:
- format system
- format data
- format cache
+ under "advanced":
- wipe dalvik-cache
you can delete bat stats in advanced to but with a full charge an letting turn off self by getting empty is also fine. (recommend 1-2 times after a fully new flash)

I do the same as Hannibal226
Sorry for the delayed reply..
Thanks for your input guys, I've ended up going with Hannibal226's (and cooza's ) method
And thanks for the info on the battery stats esk02k, I'll give that a shot tonight!
I wipe nothing. Just flash the other ROM on it, if it's not something totally different. It worked for me many many times, and I hadn't even encountered any bugs that people were complaining about. Guess I'm just lucky
hello masters, I'm newbie here. I'm using Ultimate HD 3.0.2, yeah I know it fast and have a good battery life, it save my battery so well. but three days ago I got bootloop on my xperia ray device because I made a wrong metode to flash my kernel, then I install new Ultimate HD on my device like the first time I install it. all works fine, but the problem is my battery drained quickly like I'm using the stock ics . Just for unlocking from the locked screen it drains 1-2% of battery. I have follow right intsruction such as wipe data/factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, wipe battery stats, format /system, all changed but the battery life is not. can you tell me how to fix it? I think something's wrong in setting or script maybe. thanks before.
*see an attachment, my phone idle percentage is very low now

Hello from Portugal,
I have a galaxy S2 with CM11 and after update to Snapshot 11 the battery drain's fast.. I try wipe data, cache, Dalvik cache, format /sistem, downgrate to Snapshot 10 with full wipe and format /sistem and the problem continues.. Any help?
In battery Stats say Android OS are using >70% of battery..
I also tryied callibration battery and the problem don't stop..
I'm using small gapps, i try the normal gapps and it's the same..
Thank you
Hello! I'm also having a light battery drain on M11.
I'm on a LG D802. Must be a CM thing? Maybe radio? I don't know.
I'll try updating to a nightly!
On android 4.1.2 and up are using clean battery stats on every 100% cycle so calibration is useless.
For your problem wait for rom to cooldown for atleast 2 cycles.
By the way how long is your screen on time?
Edit: cyanogenmod drains more battery than stock
Dear XDA-Members,
I got a question recently I had installed CM12 Android Lollipop 5.0.2
I could able to see Miscellaneous battery consuming defect. Does anyone have idea on it ?
I have installed without advanced Wipe i.e. on top of CM11s i check WIPE in TWRP and just installed CM12n without any issues.
As far as performance is concerns its awesome but Miscellaneous battery activity claiming more battery than anyother guy so my battery lasting max for 1 days with wifi on can someone please clarify my doubt !
Thanks
