When will cyanogenmod custom roms will have better battery lives? tested a couple of them including " the end 2.5 " , but the problem remains : faster battery drainage than the original stock gingerbread roms. haven't tested Maclaw's cm9 yet. but the framework mods and the battery tweaks recently came out are not helping quite well.
Try new cm7 by fat...battery seems better...

battery as good as stock??? that will be mind blowing considering cyanogenmod.
but now i think i should get some ics love from the Cm9 team on the occasion of Valentine's Day.
hahahahhahahhaaaa
Hm, I'm using the end and i can't say I get much less battery than on stock-based ROM. I always use Cpu Tuner and JuiceDefender and there is no significant difference between GingerReal (my stock-based ROM) and The End (my current CM ROM)...

I dont know... One day i was at 14% stuck thr for nearly 3 to 4HRS!!! Can u believe?? Means the batterystats is showing wrong value.. Why?? U know what the WILDFIRE S roms hav auto battery calibration!! Check out!!
The batterystat.bin need to be calibrate to make it read accurate...if u not calibrate it, your battery maybe fooling u, says its 50% then shutdown when acctually it read 50% as 1% lol....yes its will not make the battery better but it will show u the real state of the battery...

Not again.....I told you guys about the battery stats thingy .
Herpderp Defy.
If you play games for 2 hours on cyanogenmod, battery comes down to about 20% but in case of gingerbread stock its about 60 t
guys, READ that article again. battery stats is used *ONLY* to keep track of power events to track what uses what to generate the blame plot, it *DOES NOT* change the % value!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That article is written by the google developer who wrote that part of android!!! She knows better than you what batterystats does...
https://plus.google.com/105051985738280261832/posts/FV3LVtdVxPT
Also android deletes that data automatically for any phone when you unplug after a full charge, all phones do this.
Its not a big issue actually if u just delete the batterystat.bin either its effect the battery or not, its your choice dude...

A better battery or a more efficient OS/ROM, use CPU Tuner and/or JuiceDefender, or, as from another post, go and enjoy spending time with friends and family

This a problem with ICS Stock.. The phone doesn't go into deep sleep even with the screen off. Can you post a SS of the Battery history details?

Well, if your phone's on now then take a SS of that.. That will let you know whether its a problem related to ICS or whether its a battery problem..
Check if when the screen is off, the phone's still awake or not..

I think you haven't understood what I'm saying
Keep your phone locked for sometime, maybe half an hour, don't use your phone.. Then check the Battery history details and see if the phone's awake even when the screen's off.
Problem with all ICS ROMs.
Restart after charging via wall charger, then it doesn't happen.

No, it is not the kernel. It is a bug in the ROM, that hasn't been found or fixed yet. Restarting resets certain phone data.

It has happened always since ICS update for me, with all ICS ROMs I have used, with all ICS kernels I have used.
Restarting does the deal. I restart my phone every morning anyway, to clean up the memory/CPU, so phone will be faster.
It dosent happen with stock extended kernel..earlier it happened to me when I switched to krsh kernel aftet that I flashed extended kernel and and install custom rom like rs lite. With wipe data and format and this bug dissapeared..then it never came back
Hope it helps

In my experience so far concerning battery life, the kernel plays a huge role.
Stock kernel is a big drainer. Rage kernel is very good with battery life, as is KRsH kernel.
Flash a custom kernel, and set CPU governor to smartassv2, svagedzen or brazilianwax. Those 3 are in my experience the best.

Thought so.. that it was related to the Kernel.. I'm on extended stock kernel now and the battery life isn't as bad as stock ICS. Although I really haven't kept track of the exact battery life on this kernel, but it's certainly better than Stock ICS.

I've had similar problems when my usb port got burnt, and battery indicator constantly kept showing 'charging' icon, even thought cable was unplugged. Apparently some process/service (related to USB connectivity) prevented OS to go to sleep, and that kept draining the battery... Thanks to warranty, phone got fixed, and since i havent experienced any battery drain. Last time i checked, i got up to 3 days without recharging the battery
my battery is draining unusually fast, i recharge my phone every day... when i go to settings -> battery i can see that my device is awake almost all the time, is there an app to check what's keeping my device awake?

click on the link its the free version... scroll down to post 2 and download and install V1.12RC6 which is the latest . after the first battery cycle it will start telling you whats draining battery (if anything ) and after 2 or 3 cycles you'll get an exact knowhow of what needs stopping

let the ROM settle, 2 or 3 battery cycle.
installs BBS, cpu spy and gsam battery monitor
check which app is consuming more battery
if it is media scanner, there is rescan media apk available to disable it.
calibrate the battery and monitor it.

Use Siyah kernel v6 beta4 instead of stock kernel, Plus it will give you root, cwm and SU.

I`m able to fix my problem. Connected my phone to my PC and it is repaired to me. It was take around 1 hour to check and fix. After that I`m able to format over windows and now everything is working perfectly.
It's about the memory
I had the same problem with my S2 , it was getting hot and the battery life was shorter than norma, i has so little free memory on phone memory,so i deleted some apks and created some free space and the problem solved,my phone returned to it's normal state.i think that was the reason so check this out if it works. :good:

Turn off google now its tracks where you every 20 sec and this eats battery very fast. It will use about 3-5% battery a hour. Also install deep sleep battery saver
Look a trick for saving battery this method disables background processes in settings go to development and down, limit background processes to 1 or 2

i suggest u to atleast charge ur device 3 hour in morning.
And Disable Samsung Push Services from Application manager and which system app u dont use. if u rooted use than best thing is deleted unwanted system apps.

How long do you suppose your battery would give you in 3G mode?

..yeah your battery's probably screwed. I'd suggest take a new one
3G can consume a lot of battery in low quality connections. Maybe it is your case.
Verify if it happens on a specific location or everywhere.
Also, configure network mode to WCDMA only. It avoids phone for checking which connection is better (3G or 2G). It drains battery faster,
