Stock battery
I have done everything from Autostarts to managing my processes constantly. I played hanging with friends, got on here, and texted.
I posted an updated battery usage. I have lowest brightness, lowest image brightness, 15s timeout, etc.
i would probably switch to conservative governor vs powersave
This isn't typical battery life
I'd advice you to use better battery stats and cpu spy to se what's causing your battery to drain so quickly
Sometimes I notice "back up" in bbs, and this casus my phone to drain within a day
Hanging with friends does consume a lot of battery, but I play it too, and this does not cause that much drainage..
I have ICScrewed and with a heavy usage, my phone usually last for 1.5 ~ 2 days
With moderate call/text and idle, it lasts for 4 days.

Dang that is high! Are you sure about that? :O At medium usage /w unnamed i only get about 18 hours total. It was similar with ICScrewed too
Holy crap. I'll look into better apps. Could UnNamed be the culprit? Or the kernel?
Should I buy a new battery? The life waslike this for the few days I was stock, I think
I average around 17hr, on a good day I'll get 20h. I also recommend better battery stats, great app to see what's keeping your device from going to deep sleep.
Another great app is lbe privacy guard, you can deny certain apps and games some of the permissions they want (disabling GPS on those that really don't need it etc).
I'm on unnamed so that isn't the issue. Might be the kernel, just check the kernel wake clock in better battery stats to check. I'm on entropy's latest dd, while i do feel i got better battery life on the kernel with the latest unnamed ROM I'm not to sure if it's the kernel or something else.

I'd be curious to see your graph. My battery is dead now, but tomorrow I'm going to get on and upload Better Battery Stats to my phone. I would've paid for it on the Market, but I couldn't find it when I searched. I'm curious to see what other people think. I switched all Powersaves to Conservative. Is OnDemand bad for my CPU as it constantly trips from 500MHz to 1.2GHz? Should I consider going to 1GHz?

I have a hard time believing that. I've done everything I can to optimize my phone and reduce wakelocks and battery drain, and I still never get more than 20 hours on a good day, and that's with moderate usage.
How do you define "heavy usage"?

I agree. This is my latest battery cycle of what I consider "moderate" use
What I'd consider light usage (about 10 minutes of voice, between 5-10 minutes of cellular data, 10-15 texts, and about 20 minutes of total screen-on time) I get about 35 hours.
I have managed to almost completely drain my battery in about 4 hours though... Thanks Game Dev Story!

I realized I forgot to turn off data when I'm not using it, but I installed better battery stats and I didn't really see any wake locks. Should I try a different kernel? Any opinions on an efficient one? NOTE: I already got the yellow triangle for using the Odin way, so I'm fine with doing whatever to this phone.
I added my better battery stats shots. I guess today would be called a very light to light day.

I see two very top wake locks have kept your phone from sleeping for an hour..
That is a significant amount.
Also, use cpuspy to see how hard it's been working.
I would try to get rid of those top two wake locks...
Oh crap! I didn't see them until you brought it to my attention. That explains some of the idle drain. I'll look into CPU Spy. You guys have been so helpful!
Your kernel wakelocks had no data, probably due to BBS being a fresh install. A full charge should set a proper reference point.

If something's holding that many log wakelocks, something might be spamming a log somewhere.
I can't find anything to help with those two either. Or would seem that the keyguard might have something to do with text messages, but I can't see anything that would spam the log. Where might I be able to read this log?
Also, I'll post my CPU spy stats toward the end of the night. It's looking like it spends most of its time at 500MHz.
@wrathofnero You can remove the triangle with a usb jig. Worked for me.

I'm using the Neutrino ROM right now. My phone will get very hot after a while, usually during browsing and the battery will drain extremely quick. It use to not do this. I thought it might be Dolphin HD browser I was using but it does the same with Opera mini.
Any ideas on what I can do to fix this? It never did this before and I'm only half way through my day and it's already at 40%. I use to be able to get through my entire work day and still be in the good 60-70%...
I had this same issue when I first got my Atrix and it started happening after I rooted it and customized it. Even after a factory reset, it still ran hot and the battery drained quickly.
I ended up performing a complete factory reset and took the phone back to get it replaced. The replacement worked just fine, even after rooting it and doing the same customizations I had done with the first one.
If you just got it, I would suggest taking it back and getting it replaced with another one. It could just be a bad battery.
My 2 cents!
Here are a few things to help you diagnose your battery drain issue.
Download "CPU Spy" from the market. This program will show you how long your cpu has spent in each of it's various clock states. This program does not reset it's data until you reset it, and your phone's cpu will not sleep while charging. So charge the phone then open the program and reset timers. Now wait a while and check the stats. Your cpu should be going into "Deep sleep" mode most of the time you are not using it. If it is not 75% or more deep sleep after a couple hours, or if it shows deep sleep under unused clock states then you have some condition (probably an app) keeping it awake.
If you have an app keeping your phone awake you need to determine which one is doing it. This can be done by backing them all up with titanium and deleting a few then testing (takes forever,) or by way of another program. I use a program called "better battery stats" from the market, which is a paid app. This app gives you information on wakelocks, partial wakelocks, and processes that are running. It can be used to find the process responsible, which you then trace back to the app that is using it.
I found out about all this when K9 mail was running away with me. It wasn't too bad as long as I was connected to wifi, but while traveling it would constantly use a very small amount of data and refuse to let the cpu sleep. I deleted it and for about 2 months now I get home after 12 hours with 60-70% or more battery life and about an hour of screen time used. My deep sleep percentage is in the 80's every day. My phone is runnign Jokers's cm9 overclocked to 1.45.
Hope this helps.
Try badass battery off market, it will let you see where it drains
Just switched from Nutrino... What version are you using? EE/GT/GT+? I only used the EE because its stock clock speed. I noticed CPU gets extremely hot with slightest OC. Also, noticed quick battery drain while screen was on (quicker than other ROM's)...

Also, if your using the gt+ version with the over clock kernel like I am using, do the phone a favor by keeping the phone underclocked at 1000 MHz instead of 1450 MHz. That will help the heating up too. That's what I do. Battery is great too.
Sent from my Atrix with XDA Premium
As Voelker does, I have the 1.3 version of Neutrino but keep it clocked at 1Ghz max with SetCPU profiles most since any overclock tends to get warmer than I want. I havent had a temp crash yet, it's just me being paranoid sometimes. I do set it to 1.3 when I am playing games for smoothness, but I havent noticed any unusual battery drain, just more heat than I want.
The Chrome browser has been using a ridiculous amount of battery ( around 20% or more whether or not i even use it) and so I was looking around the fourms and saw that if you turn off tilt scrolling in the developers menu then it will significantly reduce the battery drain, and it seems to be working for me so far. I just wanted to bring this to the attention of anyone who has this problem and hasn't seen how to fix it yet

Interesting post. Thanks!
I have tilt scrolling enabled, and Chrome doesn't seem to be using excessive battery (unless I'm excessively using Chrome obviously...) but I will give it a shot and see what happens. The tilt scrolling doesn't seem to work anyway on my phone, unless maybe I just don't know how to use it..

I also noticed large battery usage in chrome until I removed "enable location" found in settings->content settings. Now it uses less than half of what it use to on a regular basis, other forum members have done the same and had the same results.

Well i did both of these tweaks and so i dont know which really did it or if its both but now im down to 5% and i actually used it so they definitely work
This is why I don't use it. Computer or phone.
Besides the syncing with desktop chrome, I just don't see the advantage of it. I use dolphin beta and it consistently works better than chrome when I tried it.

Running it now. Quite fast and elegant. Runs fine so far on v20. Adguard for example seems to interfere with LG's firmware updater, whereas this app does not.
I just uninstalled adguard to give this a try, my bigger concern is battery drain. I'll run it over the weekend and see how it does. Thanks for this
Used this all day today. Does a pretty good job at blocking most ads, I still see some here and there. Biggest disadvantage to this is the battery drain. It seems my phone is being prevented from going into deep sleep.

I just did basic homework with the built in battery stats monitor and GSAM. I haven't even looked at wake lock readouts.
I'm just chiming in to say that I used this adblocker for the past few days and my battery has been rather unimpressive. I'm going to try tomorrow without the ad block turned on to see if there's any noticeable difference compared to today at least.

Thanks for the suggestion.
I'll use it and post if I have any particular issues (battery drain, etc.)
I used this on my G3 for like 2 weeks and it worked pretty great. Going to put on it my v20.
Thanks for posting this, going to try it out.
Just installed this. Works great on my Verizon v20. So far has blocked all the ads in apps that were driving me nuts!!
Those who try it, please update with any battery drain info! I would love to use it if it didn't decrease battery life and/or keep my phone awake. This also seems like a common concern among many.
I'm been running it for a day.. So testing the battery life but for people already using it.. Does it stop YouTube ads?
Doesn't work on ads with YouTube, battery seems good and normal from before installing DNS66.
Issues I'm running into is with ChompSMS, it has issues receiving MMS. I tired changing the settings from Legacy to System but still won't work.
I've been using it for one day now. I am running a completely stock unrooted V20. I'm not a power user, so I'm not running a lot of apps that have ads. I did test it on all of the apps I have that run ads and it seems to be about 95% effective. This is great for unrooted users!
As far as battery life goes, I let it sit for about 5 hours with all apps closed and greenified. It was still at 100% 5 hours later. The day went on and I mostly just took some pictures and did minor amount of web browsing. It's now been about 10 hours since charged and I'm at 93%. App info in settings says this app has 0% battery usage since last charge. It looks to me that if you aren't using any apps that have ads it won't drain the battery. That's good news if you are worried about battery drain in standby or while not using apps with ads battery life seems normal. If you are worried about battery drain while using apps that have ads, then you have a choice, see the ads and preserve battery, or don't see the ads and charge more often. I can't confirm at this point if drain is higher with it activated and actually blocking ads versus not blocking real time ads. I'll try using some apps that have ads with it activated and with it off and see if there is a difference and report back.
Thanks @Skripka Nice work!
No matter how many forums and threads there is no solution to be found for this massive battery drainage. stock rom vs poison with greenify, underclock, tweaks, lower brightness, other mods, and the battery is exactly THE SAME in both. Draining massivly. I have 60% now, 2 minutes ago when I was browsing in mozzila I had 66%. Also draining when screen off. I kept using the battery with same patterns for a lot of days, adaptive charging doesn't seem to help.. Any solution??
Go back to stock with fastboot and see how it goes.
There's probably a much more convoluted solution out there but it would probably be too much hassle.

Hi guys. Sorry for slow reply. I have tried going back to stock rom and other different roms. No difference. You see the weird part is that the battery lasts the same no matter what you do, stamina mode? same. Nothing running on background ? same. New thing happened: After the poison 7 rom in battery settings ann option "battery care" appeared. I turned it on to see what it does. Only after some weeks it decided to pop up when I plugged my phone to charge. It said something like "Battery Care active. Your phone will be fully charged in 5 p.m Tuesday (example) while it is still Monday 3 p.m. Should I listen to battery care and leave the phone plugged in for 1 day or not? (no matter if it reaches 100%).
This is a bit irrelevant but I am asking just in case: Is your phone too charging very fast ? I have the basic charger (not the fast charge) and I believe my phone is being charged a bit too fast

Battery Care is a nice app if you charge your phone overnight.It limits the duration of your battery charged to 100% by charging rapidly to 90% until a half hour or so before you wake up. To do so it needs to learn your charging habits first. Supposedly this prolongs your battery life. Attached an example. You can see it charges rapidly as well.

I agree it is unrelated. Since your battery problem seems independent on the rom, a few options are left: a rogue app that you always install, something related to your Google account, or a hardware problem.

Is it worth it to try going back to stock again and also unrooting? Or relocking the bootloader? I thought of an app but the only thing that it could really be are the google services , the play store. Messenger doesnt seem to drain much and makes a minimal difference, and with the app we mentioned above I didn't find absolutely anything draining the battery apart from screen and OS (it could also be more than normal)
I did all the trip concept-stock-concept and it seems it is an app right now I'm getting almost the day through and have 20ish of battery, it was easier in my case because I didn't unlocked bootloader or rooted, so might try a full clean reinstall to your phone

I'm currently also having massive battery drain(6% an hour) I tried stock rom, Posion rom and concept rom, sadly all with the same result. I use grenify & fordoze but somehow my phone wont 'doze'/go into deep sleep. I installed better battery stats to check out the problem. On a normal day(one charge) the sumery of better batter stats look like this:
deep sleep 7 hours / awake(screen off) 5.5 hours / screen on 1.5 hours
when i look to kernel wakelocks there is one that is always on top of the list:
bluesleep 5.2 hours 243 wakelocks
Also under alarms there is a suspect:
com.google.android.gms: 864 alarms 1/min
So there are some strange things happening on my phone... really wondering if you got the same wakelocks/alarms as I do
I use greenify and HEBF. Same story here, it seems like nothing changes with battery life. Crazy, only 1,5 hours? My average now is 3. I haven't checked the drainage when screen is off but I did notice similar drains to yours. I think we're in the same boat. I will tell you about the wakelocks, haven't looked into that yet

I've just received my phone for just one day. Backup my TA partition, unlock bootloader and use rootkernel tool to root my devices. I'm using the .331 version stock ROM. Just then I installed the ElementalX app on play store, and surprisingly found that the cpu frequency statistics show that the phone is always on the max freq. So I changed the cpu governor to interactive governor. Haven't test battery time yet. Hope you know this issue, if you have the same problem.

I'm wondering if you've check the cpu freq statistics. See my post above. If that's the common issue, than the stock rom maybe has trouble dealing with the cpu governor problem.

I'm wondering if you've check the cpu freq statistics. See my post above. If that's the common issue, than the stock rom maybe has trouble dealing with the cpu governor problem.

Actually I'm not lowering frequencies, I use EX Kernel Manager to tune the interactive governor according to this post

After tuning the governor, it's about 4 hours SOT. Still not good compare to my Xperia Z3, but much better than before(about 2hr SOT)

Well it's not perfect yet but switching off scanning for bluetooth and wifi helped me a lot(under location settings) Also L Speed & Greenify are helping.
Still looking for a way to turn off fast dormancy.
