Hi
Its been 2months i bought galaxy s2 and 1 thing i dint like is the battery life. Im getting only 5hours of battery life with internet on. Ive installed the battery life saver apk Juice Defender and still the battery life is very less. Please suggest me something.
Also i read a post in the same website saying that the android 2.3.3 has this OS problem. The form told me to shutdown the phone and remove the battery for 5mins Nd use again. But when i shutdown the phone the battery was 45% and when i switched on again,the battery indicator was 15%. Then after sometime, it increased to 27% without charging and then reduced normally. Please help me with this, what might be the reason for battery life being inconsistant and what can be the solution

you might have an application that keeps your phone awake. what i mean is by having your screen off there are applications in the background still running. So my best advice is Juice Defender does not do anything and infact it drains more battery than saving it.

probably yes... Bcos when in idle, sometimes the display suddenly turns on and again after sometime. Is it possible that the phone is infected with virus?

No you not have a virus but probably you either need to update your firmware or change kernels if you are rooted...
how to find that out and update. pls help

I believe you have rooted your phone, if not follow chainfire thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399) for rooting the phone.After rooting goto CWM recovery > Advanced > Wipe Battery Stats. This should give you a clean slate on the issue of battery inconsistency.
As for battery drain, remove all battery saving apps like JD, they infact consume more battery. Install Betterbatterystas apps from market ( paid app) or the free version available on XDA, and check for the partial wakelocks / kernal wakelocks to get to know what apps are killing your battery.

hope this helps!

If you want give it a go ... Try Battery Mods for S2 ... They do help In this Inconsistency.
Depending on your Current Version You can find Battery Mod which will help you.

Hi All,
i am using a non rooted SGS2 in india. its running on the latest android firmware 2.3.6 (waiting for ICS.. )
the problem i am facing is that from past few days i see my battery drains very very quickly.. even if there is nothing running in background. i am using juice defender ultimate.. i guess its not helping either..
also it takes like forever to charge up.. i mean i plug my phone for charging at 17% after 2 hours it just reached to 21%..
at times while charging it through the USB.. it seems to be discharging.. it was at 37% after some time its reduced to 29%..
Also my phone heats up a lot for unnecessary reasons..
has any one faced this issue? please help...

first of all what programs run in background of your device?
second, what battery you use ? (1650 mAh 2000 mAh)
have you looked at your battery if the battery is working 100% or if the battery is damaged?
what rom is running on your device, which kernel do you use?
Could happen from rom. Here in germany the official 2.3.6 update was cancelled because of problems containing battery drain und reboots. Perhaps same stock rom problems in development.

i think your battery is gone. Maybe try charging it with the phone off or something. and if it it goes to 100% u can try download the battery calibration app on market to calibrate it properly. I would try everything i can before sending it back to samsung.
sounds like hardware problem mate, the phone should warm up when plugged but it shouldn't be above 35°C or so, and the slow charge problem could be related
if you can get another battery to test it out, or just buy a new one
good luck
You could try to reset your battery stats before going out buying a new battery.
thanks guys for your suggestions..
i uninstalled some of the crappy apps that i never used.. & voila my phone is back to normal .. less heat up.. battery lasts for 1 day.. hope it stays that way..
waiting for ICS..
@jeroensk - how can reset my battery stats..?
Clear battery stats boot to cwm recovery >> advanced wipe battery stats
But you will need a cwm and rooted phone ..
As battery stats do not need wiping dont worry about it battery automatically calibrates itself .
Some muppets think wiping battery stats actual does something . |It does not play any part in charging the battery or battery life on SGS2 .

Hi, today i experienced something strange with my s3. I was outside, battery was 16%, i heard the alert for 15%, i took phone to check and was 15% left. After 20 mins, my phone vibrated in pocket like does when you switch off. I checked and was switched off, when i came back i put on charger and turn on and under battery stats is really something drained it, but i'm not sure exactly what or whats the problem. How can i check exactly what app drained the battery like this? I attach a screenshot.
And another thing.... after phone turns off and you turn on, doesn't the battery stats reset ?
As per previous posts use Better Battery Stats .
after phone turns off and you turn on, doesn't the battery stats reset
No it does not .

No, is the i9300 version. I have 2 of them, never had any problem with any of them..
Just today happened this strange drain, now i charged it completely and i uninstalled some apps that i think might drained my battery like this. So far everything is back to normal.
use better battery stats... instead of uninstalling every app you should look for what is causing the drain in bbs and unistall it

I also have this type of problem when my phone completely runs out of battery and when plug it in charger it bump to 48%.
I dont the reason behind it that why it happen and whats the reason behind it.
If you have recently rooted your phone and have flashed custom rom in your phone than you may face problem of mis-calibration of battery. For solving this download a software called battery calibration apk ( google it ) . Your phone must be rooted if you wana use that app. but before you calibrate your battery make sure you charge your phone to 100%.
when you 100% open that app and grant the super user permission. Click on calibrate.
what the app does is that it will remove batterystat file from our phone and automatically it generate a new batterystat file in your phon. Thus any faulty or mis-calibrated file will be removed and you will get good battery life.
after calibrating do some cycle charge mean from 100% to 0% and from 0% to 100% without interuption. Do it for 3-4 times and you will see a drastic change in your battery life.
Calibration of batteries is a myth, battery stats is cleared every time you unplug a nearly fully charged device. Also draining modern batteries to dead is not good for them at all so I'd discourage it unless necessary.
Hi all, I want just to ask you if my battery drain is normal . I am on stock rooted odexed, stock kernel, s off. See the screen I did

Fast Battery Drain
Hi Frenix,
I also have an HTC ONE MAX. It's new and I've the same problem. IT'S NOT NORMAL FOR 3200mA!! See the screen I did, also if I don't use the phone, the battery drain very fast... (the first 7 hours the I didn't use the phone and it was in airplain mode). When I don't use it, the battery goes down very fast but when I use it, the battery works correctly!! This is Crazy!!! I've tried everything like charge cycles, disable all connections, reset the system to factory settings, and reset the statistics of the battery. It is definitely a sowftware problem, because if the battery is under stress, it works correctly! Consumption is given by 50% by phone on standby or idle and if the phone is also TURN COMPLETELY OFF, it drain faster than the phone turn on. I don't really what's the problem, but is not possible that a 3200mA battery drain in 1 day also if you don't use it. Do you report the same problem?

Looks to me like a wakelock issue. Some application is preventing the system from going into sleep mode. I'm working on the same issue.
When working properly, the phone should only ever be awake when the screen is on.
Use GSam Battery Monitor from the Playstore to see what is eating the battery and go from there. Depending on what ROM and if rooted or not, you can more than likely correct the issue.
calibration
i probed of calibrate the batery??
I'm running Nusense my wake lock was caused by Google Now (search). Try disabling it and see what happens. I used an app called wake lock detector.
