I'm using miui dev china rom and it's very waste battery life,any suggest for save battery life rom? Cm13,14 is save battery life?

For me cm or miui is equal in battery drain. Maybe there are some apps which are draining your battery? Install a wakelock detector app as better battery stats and look if there is any app depending wakelock etc.
I've had several instances where batter drain was quick on a fresh install. A few restarts later it was much better. If not, a reinstall of the same rom always fixed the problem for me.

I normally don't do this but I have seen this question 5+ times in the past 7 days. Do a search my friend.

My suggestion...
is to try Nitro's EC01 Rom, as well as Nemesis2all's updated kernel (Which gives you the ability to change volt settings, speed, etc) which can really improve your battery life.
Ya I would say try Nitro's Evil Fascination ROM and Nemesis2all's kernel as well. My battery life is pretty good without messing with the voltage. If you're still not getting great battery life you should a) download Juicedefender. The free version does an amazing job for me or b) do some research and try to adjust the voltage settings.
I just started using Active Apps from the market. I guess it's a Samsung product that you can use to replace Task Manager. Whenever I don't use it, my battery drains real quick, and without a specific pattern. When I use Active Apps, and use the Ram Manager level 2 kill, my battery drain instantly gets much lower. 5 hours unplugged yesterday only drained my battery like 11%. Compared to up to 30% otherwise. Hope this helps others too!
Try the app "juice defender " in the market. It makes my battery last 2ice as long

How long after battery calibration should I see a difference?
I need to reiterate what has been said: first, install Juice Defender and learn to tweak those settings, it's well worth it. Second, undervolt that puppy with Nemesis2all's latest kernel. At idle, my phone might last 48 hours [not tested].
I only ask because when I recalibrated my battery (charged fully, wiped stats, drained battery, fully charged with phone off) my battery life is worse

I update OTA last week on Verizon to Froyo 2.2. My battery was overheating and draining like crazy from my CPU usage being at a constant 99%..
I found the source of the problem. An app I use for facebook called "FLOW". The CPU usage was cut to 20% when I killed it with "Advanced Task Killer".
I resolved the issue by: Opening Flow.. going to Preferences.. Notification Settings.. Refresh Type.. Checked Periodic Polling (I was using Gmail Experimental previously)
Hope this helps...
Hey guys,
I have been running unnamed rom lately, but on any other rom including stock. My battery lasts for like 8 hours with little use and 4 hours with moderate use. When I see what is draining my battery it looks normal as the display uses the most, but I only have it at 30% brightness most of the time I have insurance should I see if I can get a new battery? Or any other tips?
Can you post a pic of your battery usage?
Have you tried to calibrate the battery yet?

Many things could cause battery drainage, such as oc-ing. You could find the original Samsung battery on eBay for a cheap price. Before buying one, try doing the following:
Clear OC/UV settings (i.e. put to defaults)
Download Battery Calibration by NeMa (on the Play Market)
Charge your phone and wait until it reaches 100%*
Tap on "Battery Calibration" and done
Once calibrated, use your phone as you normally would until the battery dies. Only when it dies you can charge it. You can charge as you please from then on.
Note: If it does not reach up to 100%, go to CWM and clear battery stats.

Which other firmwares? Anything UCKK6-based has known documented wifi drain issues.
The usual applies - look in battery statistics, use BetterBatteryStats to hunt wakelocks.

THIS DOES NOTHING ON ANY SAMSUNG GALAXY S DEVICE!
never tried the battery calibration?... does it actually work or no?
have you installed any new apps recently? those apps that use a lot of apps in the background are a pest to your battery life as they usually won't show up in the battery monitor. try disabling your data when not in use and see if that helps. if the current rom you are on does not have a toggle bar with data use the "data enabler widget" by Farproc.
I have updated my S2 with the official ICS. My battery life is now so poor I struggle to get a full day's use. Before the update I would get about two days with moderate use. I have read that the battery life should improve with ICS update. Can anyone explain this and give a solution as it is very frustrating.

try some batt monitoring apps from market and see whats draining ur batt and resolve the same either by force stopping those apps r deleting them if u find they r batt drainers
and also for ICS it requires at least one r 2 recharge cycles for things 2 settle down

I am using a battery monitoring app and have closed apps that use most battery. I have also switched off wifi, sync, gps which I never used to do, but still no real improvement.

Samsung Official ics will always be a battery eater.
Suggest you to root your phone and install a custom rom like wanam/slim etc. These will remove all unnecessary bloat wares giving u better battery and performance. (Do remember to read all the necessary info before u root).

ics generally uses more battery than gingerbread
i remember getting 3 days easy on moderate use on cm7
still you can try custom roms because they give better battery life

Have you tried BadAss Battery Monitor?
imho: too many running services in background.. try to kill/freeze unnecessary apps(use link2sd), but most important thing is it seems that current ics is not optimally written/optimized, most kernel can help minimize this effect (but minimal e.g. speedmod)... if you can bare with this condition you ics is for you.. but if you are expecting an optimal performance of your sgs2, you should consider reverting back to gb ..
If you wish to remain on Stock Rom, please root your phone. CF-Root kernel here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
Then use Titanium Back to freeze unwanted apps which drains your battery. List of applications safe to remove here.

Use BetterBatteryStats und search for the kernel wakelocks.
And use CPU Spy. How much is the amount of deepsleep?

According to CPU spy deepsleep is at 42%.
According to badass battery the battery is consumed as followes: 60% kernel and rest of apps about 9% with none more than 1.5%. Balance is consumed by screen 15%, phone radios 3%, phone 13%

Deepsleep with 42% is far to little
Find out, with process drains your battery.
Use BetterBatteryStats und look for kernel wakelocks after display is 1 or 2 hours off.
I had the same problem a while back and battery would go down to 20% in about 5 hours. Did a factory reset because when I upgraded, I didn't wipe cache. I read somewhere that old gb code could cause issues.
After the reset, phone works great. I get to 50% battery in about 13 hours. If you can, give it a shot. Of course, back up paps with Ti, otherwise reinstalling them is a *****. :banghead:

I'm quite satisfied, after first cycles now with stock Italian LPF and Phenomenal 5.4 Medium Kernel I have very satisfing results (I forgotten the phone on this night, in 5 hours it drained at least 1-2% of battery).
In normal operativity I'm on 13-16 hours with 1650mhA battrey.
Thanks will do that and post results for further help.
Battery life has now improved to about 15hrs since taking the battery out for recalibration and putting it through a few charge cycles. But this still feels to low.
Ps deepsleep still at 42%.

oooor you can downgrade to Gingerbread and get a custom rom/theme for that awesome ICS feel and at the same time get awesome battery life
I backed up my data, did a factory reset, restored my backup, charged the battery and now the estimated battery (@ 64%) is about 30 hours. So it seems my battery problem is sorted. Holding thumbs!
Sent from my GT-P7300 using XDA
I suggest i apply all the Tweaks as possible first, secondly install a cok kernel like Siyah, then see if there's any difference
Imo, i bet ICS is eating more battery than Gb, so dont expect a better battery life, try to.enjoy the new feature instead

I want to install a battery monitor app so I can keep track on which apps is using battery, if so does it uses more battery?
Also which is the best battery monitor app? BetterBatteryStats or GSam Battery Monitor
I use betterbattery and it's pretty good. you get to see all the processes as well as what apps are waking your phone.
of course, it does not use any significant battery.
heard about the gsam, but didn't try it myself.
battery
i don't know if it helps, but instead of installing another app. use the built-in battery monitor, it tells you the percentage of battery that each app/process uses...including display. one less app to run/install

Ive used both. Betterbatterystats is better in my opinion.
That in combination with the stock is a good indicator of whats eating your battery.
I never noticed any additional drain in battery with it installed

The note has terrible battery life in general. However Beanstalk has pretty decent battery life relative to other roms. Some things you can do to track your battery life is get BetterBatteryStats from the playstore and see if there is an app or service that is draining your battery.
You might want to try a battery saver app?
I can recommend you try turning off sync option as there maybe apps that push (or even worse pull) too often causing a huge battery drain as well. I recommend only trying that to see which apps cause a battery drain if that is the case.
