install better battery stats or wakelock detector or the loke and find what is eating the battery. On stock with the screen off you should get 8 to 10 days standby with no use
I was having this problem recently, and checking the battery stat, I see Gmail is eating up all the battery even when the screen was off.
Gmail? Seriously?
So I looked at the Gmail app stat, and see the cache was at 1.4Gb in size! I cleared the cache and now, it is back to normal.
Have no idea why the cache was that big, nor why that contributed to the battery drain, but check your battery usage. If Gmail is eating up the battery life, follow my example to see if that helps.

Hi all,
Why does my battery drains faster? I checked the battery used and "Cell Standby is 70%" could this be the reason of it?
Currently using Custom Rom OptimusXrom v1.1..
Help please..
Download Spare Parts and monitor with that.
Hi badeaioan, I'll check it later.. Thanks!
still my battery drains faster, cell radio is almost 70%.. can somebody help me here?
Install Watchdog. That monitors your app's CPU usage and warns you if it goes above it's threshold.
Also, you can try wiping your battery stats.
already wiped the battery stats... nothings happens.. still the Cell Standby is 70%.. how about yours?
20%.
Do you have SetCPU installed? Try setting a profile that lowers your maximum frequency down to 245MHz when the screen is off.
EDIT: Also, you have to note that the battery info in the about menu is not live information. It updates slowly (once in a while).
yes i have installed SetCPU. I'll try to make a profile, and monitor it.. I'll post an update tom. Thanks.. I'm planning to try UbuntuDroid if this wont work.. I already tried, amber home, prime and currently using optimus x.
Cell standby is also at 75% for me and the battery has juice for 2 days. So don't worry about it.
All the p500 phones show that cell standby is the biggest conssumer (i know 4 guys with same phone). For example on a Galaxy S the screen eats all the battery.
I figured it out!
The battery usage info menu does will not show you whether your battery is draining faster or not.
Here's how it works:
Suppose I have 5 apps: a, b, c, d, and e. Let's say cell standy is app letter a. Overall, battery usage is 100%, right? Assuming everything consumes power at the same rate, app a gets 20%.
If you have cell standby consuming 70% power, everything else consumes 30% power.
Confirm this by visiting your battery info menu. Also, you only have a problem when what's consuming more is an unnecesary app. As for cell standby, I wouldn't worry about it.
Do you have a screenshot of yours?
No I don't have any screen shots, so you mean it's ok that my cell standby is 70% sometimes more... ? My officemate's Samsung galaxy s cell standby is something like 3% - 10%.. that's why I'm thinking that cell standby is the reason why my battery drains faster?
What apps do you have there by the way? I'm guessing there are a few, or many but using only about 1-3%
If you ask me, no. Out of the 100% battery use, cell standby is using 70% of that. 30% goes to everything else.
How you use that 100%, though, is a different story.
hmm.. I see... well I guess I'll try different rom... what rom are you using? I noticed, before I go to sleep,for example I check the battery 90-95% when I woke up and check it again, the battery goes down to 50%... I wonder why... standby.. and drains that fast?

Light. Wow, that's a huge difference Try another ROM. See if that solves the problem.
Yep, that's what I'm planning to do.. I hope it'll solve my problem.. hehehe I'm just waiting for my phone to finish charging.. I'll post an update tomorrow.. Thanks again kpbotbot.. how the rom you're using? how's the battery life?
Feels like the stock ROM (which is why I like it). The only difference is that stuff under the hood are tweaked, optimized, and the like. Plus the useless apps are removed. Battery life is... adequate I can go about a day and get about 60%. I don't know how long 100% will last since I always recharge.
PS - In case you're wondering why I reply so fast, it's because I have nothing to do at home since I was advised to rest for at least a month after release from the hospital xD
Try battery saving apps like juice defender.
Im using juice defender with ultimate juice and use its mobile data toggle widget to switch off my internet when I dnt use it..
hmmm..actually I was.. hahahaha.. now I know why you reply so fast.. Thanks dude.. get well soon..
40% it's a normal value?
I don't know why your battery drains so fast (50% over night is tooo much) but right now for example in "battery use" menu I have:
13h 50m since unplugged
Cell standby 78%
Android system 13%
Display 5%
Voice calls 4%
Android OS 2%
I think this is normal.
My battery has horrible life. I'm rooted running evil fascination and have done all the things that typically help with battery life such as disabling gps and wifi, and lowering brightness. In fact my brightness is currently as low as it gets and my battery use shows my display as 99% of my current usage. Even though I just took my phone off the charger 15 minutes ago and it's already at 85%. I know my screen can't possibly have taken that much battery so fast. It also takes about 4 hours to charge from zero to 100 because it's draining so fast. Can anyone give me some advice? I downloaded an app that shows my current mah or whatever but I don't know what that means. I notice when it's at 270mah my battery drains fast which is most of the time but a few times it has been at 2 mah and it doesn't drain fast then.
sounds like a rogue app keeping your phone/screen running when off.. I had the same problem a while ago, 96% screen usage and taking 6 hours to charge then draining to zero in an hour and a half.. unfortunately the only thing that fixed it for me was a complete data/cache wipe and reflash of the rom, I think I was on superclean 2.9.2 at the time.. could be the battery being wonky also, you might wanna look into the battery calibration app on the market or wiping batt stats in CWR

I have the stock 4.5.9 gingerbread update on my AT&T ATRIX. However I am observing a terrible battery life. There are too many solutions in the forum to follow. Can someone direct me to the appropriate one? I am rooted and unlocked. I used the unlocked 4.5.9 sbf for upgrading from from Froyo to gingerbread 2.3.4
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
there;s a lot of solutions because poor battery life can be cause by many things, you have to find out what is draining your battery. try calibrating first let it drain until your phone turns off and then if you have cwm install then wipe batterystats and then a full uninterrupted charge
Try setting profiles in SetCPU and freezing apps with TitaniumBackup. Theres a topic for each of these two solutions.
battery stats 6h 3m 29s on battery (now left with 10% of battery)
Display 49%
Phone Idle 22%
Cell standby 6%
Android system 5%
Launcherpro 3%
xda 3%
Android OS 3%
this is just terrible .. i never had such battery life with Froyo. i dont understand what might be the problem. Meanwhile i will try to calibrate my battery.

Calibrate your battery.
Then freeze your bloat.
Problem solved.
dont forget you might also being playing with your phone a lot more trying to see all the new stuff in the update. Thus causing more battery drain.

There are some strange things happening with the battery. I let my battery discharge completely to the point where phone shuts down. Then I plugged in to charger, waited for 2-3 minutes so that I can start the phone. Started the phone and saw 50% battery. Don't know what's going on.
I was told by an admin from another site that most of the battery programs do not work with ova ginbread. You go to settings/about/status and observe the battery. I do no I was also getting flaky results with 2 of the battery programs.

That's a GB bug... there's a battery fix in the development section to flash which deals with the reboot battery jumping. (turn off phone at 50%, turn on phone and it says 70%)
I am having problems with my Atrix too. With my usage, I used to be able to get almost 3 days of battery life. Now it hardly lasts a day. I have checked pretty much all settings (sync, sleep) and all seems fine as far as I'm concerned. So I am having hard time trying to find what is causing this. The only suspect I have right now is wifi. I don't think wifi is sleeping even though I've selected "When screen turns off" in the sleep policy.
I rooted and installed the [ROM]CM9 4.0.4 ICS Liberty[09.Jul.2012] last night. It is very slick and so far very stable.
My standby battery life seems decent, dropping a percent or two every hour. However when the screen is active at just the home screen with nothing open, it is dropping at atleast 1% a minute. I am not over exaggerating this, it went from 72% to 65% in 5 minutes just now testing the theory.
I have the following OFF: wifi, bluetooth, gps, syncs (except gmail once an hour), live wallpaper.
I have brightness set to manual, and very low. I have no widgets on screen except a time widget.
I have installed a number of apps (less than 10) since installing the ROM, including facebook, gmail, maps, gvoice, twitter, espn, etc - but nothing that is using location or updating real time at any point (to my knowledge).
Any thoughts on what my issue might be? or any further info I can provide?
Thanks! I love this build so far, I just need improved battery life or I am going to have to try something else.
you tried wipe battery stats?
and for me this situation whith battery in first 1-2 days is normal, than when you uncharge your phone to 0% and charge it to 100% 1-2 times everything settles into shape!
sorry for my bad english

I wiped stats last night after charging to 100%. I let it discharge and turn off on its own, and I am charging it up to 100% again now. I am hoping doing this a few times will make it better, because right now it is unusable.

I find that my battery does that when its working too had to keep a 3G signal. Try witching to 2G when it's just idle

I heard that wiping battery stats does nothing. A google representative said that the stats only show what has been using the battery in the "Battery use" app. Not how it reads the battery.

It's unbelievable,i use very well ,does your battery issue ? did you install other rom test it?
When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Can you Please share the usage Graph of your Device ?
Mine drains around 5-6% at night in standby! Its more than average considering the large 5000mah battery
Greenify / Freezing / disabling Google play services, or going nogapps improves battery life x10 times. In other cases, frustrate the app by denying it all permissions, so that it force closes every time it launches automatically (wakelock and drain prevented). Its an analogy to tying a runners shoelaces.....can't run, can't consume battery.
There are how many updates come till now for this phone? Please someone confirms it.
Draining issue is high.
Drained 29% last night..
Seems like software issue

That's true .my phone droped 20% charge last night.
It shows that the battery is consumed by android system is very high. I think it is a software issue

Use your phone till it becomes 0% and let it shut down Now press power button for 30 secs and make sure no battery is left to reboot the phone
Charge your phone till 100% with phone turned on/off (but don't use the phone while charging)
After 100% remove from charging and start normal usage till it becomes 0% again and now repeat same procedure 3-4times
Contact Asus CC they might provide better solution for your device after checking device details

Yeah, custom roms are highly optimized though it's unofficial right now I didn't think it would be this good. Well I'm on stock rom still and use greenify which does help a bit, the drain was 4% in 8 and a half hour.
the problem is on the apps that consumes power and data like facebook, instagram and some other similiar apps.
possible fix is disable them. and use fb instag by chrome. it makes the ram usage a bit less because the app wont use ram but "move" the ram usage to chrome.
ideal drain is more, after update and a bug also found Sim 1 hd capable.
I've noticed that my used ram is always above 2.0 gb. I wonder what's running in background consuming this much ram ?, this also might be the root cause of ideal drain I guess.
