i m having battery prob it continuously drain whether we use it or not...
so i changed the battery but still same prob...
is this H/W issue or what?
I also have The same battery low problem...... its so frustrating....
Check your rom and kernal as life of battery greatly depends on good combination of both of them.
If possible try flashing your phone with stock ics or gb rom ftf and then any of the custom rom or kernal which you are using.
This would solve your problem i hope because if there is any problem with rom then it will be solved automatically
Also note that the stock GB rom with baseband 62 is best for battery and reception.
i have the exact same problem. My phone drains the battery way too fast 6% per hour or so while standby.
It seems to be a hardware problem of xperia neo v. The phone will also drain its battery even while the phone is shutted down. It doesnt matter which kernel you use or rom.
The only reccomendation i can give you is to stay with stock (gingerbread prefered). That is because stock drains battery slower than custom roms.
For gb i reccomend gin2kitkat and for ics anything you like as long as it uses sony firmware. As for kernels there is not much of a difference.

I've looked through the custom roms listed and theres not a whole lot of information given. I'm currently using Wolf_Xperia_4.0.0 and the battery life is kinda horrid.
I prefer Froyo or Gingerbread and want use of my camera. Can anybody help me out with a name or a link?
see if u want gud battery life then go for this Rom with stock kernel ...the battery life is pretty gud as i have experienced !!

check if it works out for u ..the camera is same as the Stock one only
Thank me if i helped u
I've had good battery life with WB 4.0.4c and so far doing okay with WB 5.0.0, but honestly since everyone's usage is different it's probably better to experiment with different roms rather than have someone tell you which one is best.
I had pretty decent battery life on WB 4.0.4c until I unlocked my boot loader. I used to get two or three days out of it, but this reduced to just six hours. I'm on WB 5.0.0 now and have re-locked my boot loader. Battery life is good. There are most deffinitely issues related to having your boot loader unlocked so if you have unlocked it then I would seriously consider locking it again if you value your battery life.
Thanks guys, going to look into the one linked. What is the WB one you mentioned?
My aunt is a waitress at a busy restaraunt... she gets up and works 8 busy hours (so not on her phone every 5 seconds, maybe checks texts twice a day?) and she gets home below 50% each day. That's pretty horrible.
WB is Wolfbreak's rom. To follow up to my previous post the issue effecting me was the fact that with an unlocked bootloader my phone was not going into deepsleep which was a known issue. This was fixed in DooMLoRD's DooMKernel v05. I have now unlocked my bootloader again and using that kernel along with WB v5. Battery life is good again. I've lost 12% in the past 16 hours. You may also wish to consider calibrating your battery which basically involves charging it to 100%, resetting your battery stats and charging again from 88% and repeating that process a few times. There is a thread about it somewhere. Sorry can't post links right now as I don't have enough posts. Hope this info helps the OP or anyone else with battery issues.
Wolfbreak's rom can be found in the XPERIA X10 Android Development forum. It's a popular thread, can't miss it.
Also to add on, if battery life is a concern, have you tried adjusting the settings? Perhaps turning down the brightness, changing wifi sleep policy, turning off syncing, etc. I would also definitely look into undervolting.
Hi,
I am Bell Atrix user.
Since i have jumped from froyo to GB i am facing bad battery life, no matter what i do it drops like stone e.g 50% in 11 Hrs of sleeping
Recently I Flashed CM7 Beta and i am loving it, again only problem i can think of is with radio (for battery life)
So any suggestions about which radio should i flash for best battery life.
Note: I dont use EDGE, 3G, HSPA+ at all
and i am currently on N_01.77.33P
Any Thoughts ???
Dont kill me for asking this question again
P.S: is it ok for me to flash ATnT Radio on my CM7 ???
Did you calibrate your battery ?
Follow this guide for better battery performance: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1198333
on CM7 no but on Gb (almost all or ROMs i tried) yes, no use
BTW do i have to do battery thingi every time i flash a ROM ?
i flashed froyo and it is good without any battery calibration stuff
OK, I've searched for information about this and found little, so if there is a thread already please point me to it.
My battery life has been terrible of late. According to my phone, WiFi is what is pulling the most battery (about 56%). I never really had this problem before switching ROMs. Before I had the problem, I was running z's FreeXperia 2.2 ROM and could get two-three days of battery life without turning WiFi off. Now I am running Wolf's V6 and have to charge my phone every night to keep it from dying. I've tried the battery calibration app, wiping battery stats, and the battery life guide. This problem has occurred with all my 2.3 ROMs that I've flashed, so I know it's not the ROM itself. Has anyone else had this problem? I'm thinking I will use PC Companion to repair back to 2.1 then flash back to 2.3. My hope is something messed with WiFi during previous flash. Anyway, I thought I'd check here before I went flashing my phone to death again.
Also, I know someone will say 'just turn off WiFi,' but I don't have unlimited data (thanks AT&T) so I keep my WiFi on so I don't run up my data usage.
Which kernel ru using for wolfs Rom the stock or custom ...i think stock kernel gives a better battery life compared to the custom...and which all kernel did u try for his Rom
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I'm running the stock kernel. I've figured out that WiFi isn't the problem. I switched WiFi to be turn off when phone shuts down and that helped, but it's still terrible battery life. I had it fully charged last night before I went to bed. I used it lightly before going to sleep and woke up this morning at 81%. No reason the phone should be draining that quickly. Now cell standby is 39% of battery usage and phone idle is 32% of usage. WiFi is down to 20% with new setting. I guess I need to learn how to do screenshots.
Right now I'm thinking something must not have happened correctly when I flashed the baseband/kernel, because I've tried every piece of advice on this forum. Will reflash back to stock and start there. Will report back to say if that helped.
I have the same issue but right after installing fb 2.0, before that it was awesome
Just an update on the "problem." I flashed back to 2.1 then flashed Wolfbreak v6 twice to try and solve the problem. I also didnt do a full restore on one flash hoping to figure something out. Finally, after having my phone freak out on me, I decided to flash the stock x10a 2.3 firmware. Battery life is back to pre-wolfbreak levels. Wondering if the whole x10i vs. x10a is causing a problem as wolfbreak's rom is for the "i" and I have an "a"
Running FPS uncap on stock rom and it performs well for me. Satisfied for now...until ICS rom
I have tried the litening rom and omega ( 4.0.3 ) and got many bugs together with battery drain. On the litening it was huge batery drain on the Omega i got the poor signal connection ( change the modems doesnt help ). Now i think to go back to the CheckROM 2.3.6. Will it be better on battery drain and speed?
I think you should give more ICS roms a shot, such as Hydra's ICS rom, Wanamlite ICS (if you prefer the stock rom feel, its stable and smooth).
I would say the ICS rom experience has certainly been better than the GB ones.
Battery drain is most likely caused by rogue apps, you should check whether its your apps that are draining the battery or the rom itself. Otherwise, everyone else would be experiencing it if they used the roms.
I'm using "Thebyani" and find its just as fast and the same on battery as any GB ROM I tried. However, I do like some of the niceties of ICS!
I usually stay on CM9. However I love the Sammy ICS but there is one problem that always occurs...Whether it would be in one hour of installing the rom or 2 weeks. Now here is the problem. It will suddenly stay at 1200mhz for like 5 minutes and really drain the battery and then go back to normal. I don't really like this and I don't know how to fix it. I've already tried every ICS rom that is based on Sammy but still nothing works. Otherwise in my opinion the Sammy rom is a lot more smooth and powerful than the CM9.
I am tempted to try the MIUI roms

maybe you could try flashing speedmod kernel? seems to me its a kernel problem
This turns to be personal opinion. Try other roms out and make that decision yourself. Locked.

Okay so I've been flashing ROM's on my xperia mini (st15i) since November-December of last year. Recently i have seen drastic battery stand-by on my device. I usually change my ROM frequently. I noticed that my device at night, on stand-by mode goes from about 70% to 30% with only WiFi on and brightness set to low! This shouldn't happen i guess! Currently I'm on PA 2.57 i.e android 4.1.2. And while typing this all, it went from 70% to 65%! Everything's off except for WiFi with no calls/texts! I use whats-app/kik messenger so switching off the WiFi is not at all a way to increase battery.
I also used battery calibration twice or thrice, flashed various ROM's, used various tweaks, but still no improvement.
I really really need some help and advice from all.
Thank you,
Regards,
Ishan :good:
Hi
Try using BetterBatterystats to find out which component drains your battery.
Have you unlocked bootloader, if yes try different kernels..
Theres an app batteryguru try that too.
Bad battery
I'm using xperia mini pro./.... and sometimes it looks like my device... and try a new rom which has a long battery feature, try a new kernel,... delete some unnecessary softwares and turn off wifi, 3g,4g, reduce screen light,.... and your battery may be corrupted..
change with diferent kernel bro!! try to reflash new other rom, tweak with only one script ex supercharger
