What app are you guys using which shows usage, drain, and graphs of your battery? I'd like to download it and see what's causing my battery to tank so much. Thanks!

Most use the built-in battery status that can be found in settings>about phone>battery usage and then click on the time that the phone has been on located at the top to get the graph.
If you go into settings>applications>battery usage it will show you everything in there. From there if you tap the graph it will show you more detail.
Not an app but built in

BetterBatteryStats
Thanks guys! Wasn't aware of the graph in the settings. I'll also look at BetterBatteryStats.

I use Battery monitor widget pro. Mainly because it could tell me (approximately, but close) how long my battery will last.
I've been having problems with my phone overheating and shutting down becauase of it. What's a good app to monitor battery usage and system temp?

Batterysnap might work for you. Has a widget that monitors temp and percentage, and keeps a running graph of battery level (% or v I believe) vs. time.
Elixir2 might also do it...definitely monitors those items, and has widget capabilitiy, but I don't specifically know if you can set up a widget to monitor them live...
I don't know of one exactly that is meant for it, but you can setup SetCPU to warn you and then underclock.

This wont do anything.
That app just deletes the battery stats bin file which has nothing to do with imoroving battery life. It was a myth that was debunked by a google engineer.
Basically that file is just auto generated everytime you unplug you phone.
Also battery calibration by draining and recharging is placebo because li-ion/li-po batteries do not suffer from a memory effect.
You should download betterbattstats and find out what is killing your battery. It could be a wakelock keeping phone awake instead of sleeping.
Could also be the battery itself.
Too hard to telk without more info

thank you i will try all of them and get back to you guys
all you need to do is to recalibrate your battery.
Hey guys, please post your battery stats by using app called better battery stats. I have to charge my every 10 hours. My phone was in deep sleep for 6hrs or so. My battery drain average is 10.4%/hour. So, please post your battery stats using better battery stats. btw, I'm using stock gb rom with tagb 1.2 hotfix kernel. My battery drains even in deep sleep mode (I guess, I'm not sure) The person who has best stats may tell us some tips.
PS: please download better battery stats app from xda, as the developer provides free version for xda users, but in market its paid app.

Even if we post our battery stat..
The problem lies in
How we use our phone
How old is our phone
ROM and kernel versions
Applications installed
and everything related..
You cannot compare an apple to a orange.
I think this is very decent battery life (using CM9).

We can't compare everything! We can compare something like which app they use for texting, which are the apps that keep phone awake; what are the alternatives for that app, what are governors people use for normal use! Etc

Depends on your usage. Of course, powersave would be in the running for best battery life, but it would not be ideal if you are a gamer or heavy user. I personally use a governor not available on any of the GB kernels as far as I know (SmartassH3).
Never liked SetCPU. I use No frills; simple UI, allows you to change governor and I/O scheduler, look at some frequency stats, etc.

Is governor suitable for battery saving? I'm a moderate user, I want my phone to sleep like baby, when screen is off and make sure that any app doesn't keeps my phone awake! I have upgraded the version of my better battery stats app. Will post the screen shot of battery stats in a few hours, would you mind if I send you the dump of my usage to you by pm! So that you could help me!

SmartassH3 is supposed to be a more battery efficient version of Smartassv2.
I don't think changing your governor will help with sleeping issues. Governors only affect how the CPU ramps up and down. If you have issues with your phone sleeping, then it is most likely one of your apps.
Since you already have BetterBatteryStats, you can easily check partial wakelocks and see if any apps are keeping your phone awake.
I really doubt upgrading the app will change the battery usage of your phone.
If you cared about battery life, being on stock is bad start. Why not use CM7 or CM9?

The reboot during the call may be a kernel problem. Would you like to describe your problem in more detail?

Just change the rom and Kernel.
You are getting so many bugs and yet you didn't flash new rom.
I recommend that you change roms and see what's best for your phone and your usage.
I'm not sure but the kernel you are using is for gaming I think. ie. More power, less battery.
Anyways here is a battery usage graph :
I had an app that told me what was pulling what from the CPU.. Like a rouge app. I have better battery and cpuspy but there was something else too...

For me is really goot app Watchdog Task Manger Lite. This app helped me find what drain my battery. When some app/process drain your battery, Watchdog notice you in notification bar. And in addition is for free :good:
