Hi guys!
For all people who want to know how to increase battery life!
Here we will put all solutions and information how to this.
1. Disable WiFi/Mobile Network - GPS - Bluetooth if you do not use them!
2. Set display brightness manually and reduce it (Settings » Sound & Display » Brightness)
3. Reduce screen timeout (Settings » Sound & display » Screen timeout)
4. Do not leave applications running and when you close them, close also from Recent Apps
5. Turn off Location system (Settings » Location & Security » Uncheck the boxes for Google Location Services and GPS Services)
6. Do not use Live Wallpapers, this will decrease your battery life!
7. Turn unnecessary hardware features off like 4G LTE network
8. Remove unused widgets from Home
9. Uninstall unused applications and keep your memory free
10. Have a Dual Core smartphone? Disable the last one! Attention. This will increase your battery life but will decrease your performance! (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36523894&postcount=1)
11. Turn off auto-sync. This will increase your battery more.
Have you got other solutions? Tell us! And we will put it into first post. :laugh:

i dont think setting the brightness to auto will increase battery life. it will decrease more likely! setting the brightness manually would be a good idea than auto. since auto requires energy to change the brightness now and then.
anyway keep up!

Yeah. What you said is true. Auto means, the sensor has to work also, to detect the luminosity of external environment. This will call other processes and so forth...eventually using battery...I always use manual method..
Thank you for your usefull information!

i think what he meant to say is official thread for battery life recommendations and discussion. let it be, this way, others may not create another battery performance thread. i think this has a nice touch by putting recommendations in OP.

I just switched to Miui, and battery isn't that great so, does anyone know a better kernel for Miui!? Please help! Thanks.
Sent from my T959 using xda premium
Now, the MIUI rom itself comes in many varieties. From what I hear the Prime or Lithium versions of MIUI preserve battery better then stock MIUI or MIUI.us.
Kernel wise however Bali-CM 2.2.2 and Glitch v13 are your best bet. Personally I use Glitch because it is much more stable, smoother, and faster then Bali. Plus Bali is no longer being updated while Glitch is still in development. Still you should try out both and see which suits your personal taste best.
Also, remember to undervolt (in SetCPU), as that should further increase battery life without loss of performance. "Screen off" profiles in overclock apps like SetCPU also help in battery conservation.
Another thing. Don't forget that our Vibrant's screens are huge power drainers. Keeping it on a lower brightness level helps save a lot of battery.
An app that really helps battery life is called Juice Defender Plus. You should try it out! Here's an overview of the app posted by "Woodrube" (he helped me get more out of my battery life with his awesome battery wisdom) that should help you get started...
Woodrube said:
This is how the JD Plus works (no need for JD Ultimate b/c we don't have many of the functions it supports. I just copied this from another thread the OP started awhile ago and I was trying to helps him out there.
If you set it to custom, the go into the settings tab on the right and then all the way at the bottom, there is two buttons to push, The first in Interactive which will pull up Juice Defender for up for any app that isn't already configured and the other is Configure Apps. This is the one that you can customize on an app-to-app basis where if you are no using an app and the screen is locked, it kills the radio/data traffic for that app.
Say you are listening to IHeartRadio, this you would want either Enable or Enable/off (which means the screen will be locked but the radio/data will be working). Now take the browser. It you are not using the browser, then you don't need it transmitting data right? So you would set that one to Enable (which means that it will only enable data traffic when that app is being used).
Juice Defender only works when the screen is locked, don't forget and all widgets are battery drains b/c all they really are is a monitoring app and if it is tied to something like FB or G+, then that data will be running constantly.
Examples:
Gmail = Enable (not enable/off b/c then it will keep your radio/data open)
Beautiful Widgets = Enable/off
mClock/Clockr = Enable/off
Angry Birds = Disable (with this and something like Adfree, no more ads in Angry Birds even though the ads are embedded in the .apk)
SMS/MMS = Enable or Do Nothing (why would you push disable)
Enable = Radio/data on when app is in use (front)
Enable/off = Radio/data on for background apps (when screen is locked)
Disable = Disables radio/data traffic completely when that app is running
Do Nothing = What is says.
I have been using JD+ for over a year on 3 different phones and have noticed a considerable difference in battery life, even on a crappy Motorola phone. Just takes some time to figure out YOUR settings and what YOU like. I have also used it on Stock kernel and had no problems either.

Hey dude, which one should I pick from high leakage, medium leakage, or low leakage!? And what's the difference!?
Sent from my T959 using xda premium
Here is what it means straight from the OP of the Glitch thread...
4)What is Leakage (LL,ML,HL) and what one should i use?
Easy explanation: start with HL. If it allows you to OC how much you want, stay there. If not, move down until you get what you want.
For people who want more: Well, we made different leakages because koflem couldn’t OC, and he felt left out, so he started compiling on his own, which gave Tk-Glitch the idea to make three different versions. They have to do with the differences in different phones. Take for example different phones run better with different OC/UV. The leakages are the same way. They adjust the int voltages, which is something not configureable (yet) in userspace, so we have to configure them that way when we build. That way both the voltages that you are used to (the ones controllable via voltage control) are tailored to your device, as is the int voltages (the ones only we can do). Most people have no idea, but there are dozens of variables that we play with to make so that all of you can OC and UV as much as possible with as much stability as possible. Some aren't device specific, some are. We are trying to make the best experience possible for a wide range in chip quality, therefore we make different leakages, as well as making the kernel configurable via voltage control. From a stability/performance standpoint, and by extension standpoint, there is only one leakage right for your device. Different leakages aren't better in some ways for you and worse in others, there is only one good one for your device. Sorry if that didn't make sense, I tried to make it as informative as possible without it being overwhelming.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now, first of all make sure you install v13 not v12 of Glitch. Here's a link to v13. To change the leakage in v13 do as follows...
-Boot into Recovery
-Go down to "Glitch" and select it
-Go to the Leakage section and select it
-You should be presented with High, Medium, Low
-Choose which leakage you want and reboot
If you have anymore questions feel free to ask.
Alright, I flash this kernel like I flash any other kernel right? And what are the differences between high, low and medium?
Sent from my T959 using xda premium
Flash like a normal kernel, yes.
To be straight out honest I'm not 100% positive on the differences. But from my understanding High leakage works on most Vibrants, while Low works on the few better made phones. Just start with high then try medium (which is what I use). Most likely you won't be stable on low, however, if you're stable on medium then move down to low. The more detailed answer is already posted above.
These are great suggestions but for me personally my phone won't go into deep sleep after a charge unless I reboot it, so just rebooting my phone every morning gets me to about 18 hours on a charge

If you flashed v13 and then did a reboot this is how you change the leakage...
-Boot into Recovery (It will be red)
-Go down to "- GLITCH" and select it

-You should be presented with...

If you have the BLN app installed then uninstall it. Or you could try going into settings, click the settings soft key, search, type "led notifications", click led notifications, and then turn it off. Try that and see if that helps.

can anybody give me suggestions which rom is good for Mozart better battery life?
Thanks
Well I would suggest trying the basics first and seeing if it made a difference:
1. Turn on Battery Saver when you're low on power.
2. Change your synchronisation settings from - as items arrive to hourly or if possible 2 hrs.
3. Lessening the number of apps that display live tile info via some form of connection to the internet. For eg - Some Twitter apps do this.

I did this settings before for battery life, still not well enough to me.
Will try to flash to 8107 free rom or DFT rom, and upgrade radio to 5.71, I heard it would take a better battery life.
In my opinion this ROM is very good for you - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1334076

Hi guys, I'm coming from an iOS iPhone 4 device to a Samsung Galaxy S2, So far I'm very satisfied by the performance of the device, the freedom of choice and let's just sum it up, Really happy about the switch.
Anyway can you guys recommend me some Battery saving tips?
What Kernels do you guys use, and that are battery life efficient, and do not sacrifice performance,
I'm running on 4.0.3 Stock ROM
I don't and will not switch from a regular Sammy rom, for certain reasons.
Thank you very much and sorry if I'm OT..
Hi, my first bit of advice is to learn how to flash roms and get your phone rooted!
I'm using a rooted, stock ROM from wanam and I've no complaints.
Once your rooted, the best app I've used for battery saving is called 'autostarts'. It allows you to control when an app starts (for example the google plus app starts after pretty much any event-like connecting a power cord for example).
Using just this app my overnight drain (11 pm to 7 am) went from 16% down to 8%.
The majority of battery monitors I've used just give you the 'feeling' you're saving battery on my experience!

I've flashed my device with the Medium because for some reason the extreme won't boot up my device, I have a "cation" sign under my Phones name, anyway I noticed some apps appear on my device, "Superuser" and "CWM" That means my phone is rooted?
I recommend you to use the WanamLite ROMs (they are the stock ROMs with very few and essential tweaks, and root access). I'm using Fluxi kernel, but I'm using Paranoid Android, which is NOT a Sammy ROM.
Now, in order to save battery you can undervolt the processor, lock it to never go beyond certain speed (i.e 1GHz), use low brightness, disable automatic sync, use 2G, etc...
Hope I helped, and welcome to the wonderful Android world

Congrats on making the move from an OS that are you are told what you can & can't do to an OS that YOU tell what you want to do.
Always leave data network mode as deactivated unless you need it. Go into Settings>Wifi and click the menu button (soft key to the left of the home button) and click Advanced. Then under the option Wifi on during sleep select Never (or Only while charging). As a few other users stated, use auto brightness. Where you can, use the Application Manager widget on your home screen. If the number goes above 0 then you should click on it and kill the app (and clear the Ram as well for good measure. If you can, also use a static wallpaper instead of a live wallpaper, and also use black or dark colours as much as you can. Also open up your dialler and dial *#9900# and something called Sys Dump opens up. There is an option there called Disable Fast Dormancy. Press it to disable it.
I can't think of anymore at 11:35pm!
As for kernels, stock Samsung is all I use. Lots of people on XDA seem to use Cyanogenmod, CF-Root or Siyah.
Good luck and enjoy your freedom. :victory:
You can't practically do anything to save juice but installing some battery monitoring apps like Better Battery Stats, Watchdog etc. Just monitor what apps are causing Wakelocks or misbehaving, then disable the Sync in them.
And PLEASE DO NOT install any crappy apps, Play Store is full of them.
Oh, Android's biggest juice hogger is those ads, so install AdAway and remove those nonsense ads.
Good Luck.
First thing post in the correct forum. Second asking for whats better for "x" or "y" is not allowed as its relative to each person. So for that I will be locking this thread.

Radio-usage are all the stuff when the handset transmits something or recieve something
- Cell-tower-communication 2G/3G/Data (sometimes with bad connection, or too few cell-towers, 3G uses more battery because it keeps trying to find a new and better cell-tower)
- WIFI
- Bluetooth
- And also FM-radio (Radio-apk) (try to play mp3-music for as long as it can, and then try the same with FM-radio - my guess is, that it uses more battery to listen to FM-radio)
just to notice
i have been in the Philippines now since 2nd May, and only charging 1 time.
I know they have got 3G because it's possible to have unlimited internet on the handset for a monthly fixed price, but I have not updated connection settings. I think I am only using 2G.
also every day I use some wifi arond the mansion.
some should try to find a way so 3G does not use that much power. I know it has something to do with 3G constantly trying to find a better cell-tower.
EDIT: using local provider Globe SIM-card
thanks for the useful information
I wanted to start a thread that shows some good apps for the HTC One. If you have any that are good, feel free to post them.
A couple I have that are pretty good are:
1) Wave Launcher: can add more apps to save space on pages. Can't really explain it, but look it up.
2) BetterBatteryStats: I like this app because I can see how much screen time I get from a full charge.
I'm looking for new apps for the One. If you have any I'd love to know them. Thanks

On a side note, you should request a mod to move this to the themes&apps section
1 advanced task killer,
2 clean master
3 doctor battery
4 alphalt 7:laugh:
atk really>>>> that was used in the 1&2 series of android phones STOP running it... It causes your phone to use more battery to restart the processes than it does save battery...
1- Power Toggles. Free Notification Toggles make it much easier to change settings vs Sense Settings Menu. I really like adding in Recent Apps shortcut as well.
2- Galaxy Pack. Battery last long enough for me to use a Live Wallpaper, and Galaxy Pack is simply one of the best with lots of options.
3- gReader.

Thanks to Laporte for getting me on this app.
