Thanks to all developers for all The hard work to this comunity.
i think we all lile to come here and see a New Rom.
But in The end what is The diference from all of The roms here ?
No bugs or less bugs ?
More colours or less colours ?
I just want a stable rom with 24 hours of battery...but battery that let me use the SG2,,,use push mail , use GPS with acuracy , surf in The web ....
The iOS 4 let me do this...
I tried almost of The roms here...cant get more than 12 hours...diferent kernels...
I dont want set CPU , juice defender etc,,,i want a device that i dont want to think if i surf On The web ...i dont have battery for tonight.
I think The developers do a lota of effort..i think The sg2 is not good enough...
I bought 3 batterys ... All The same , waiting for The 2000mhn from Samsung ...last hope ...or i Will be back to iPhone .
Any advice On a good cobination / rom and kernel ?
Btw : The quality of The housing of The sg2 is poor..
Thanks for you advices , and thnks to all developers .

My SGS2 has better battery life than my iPhone. The only bad thing about the casing is the battery cover...that's the trade-off of having a removable battery. Sounds like you're using your battery wrong.

What you mean wrong ?
What rom and kernel are you using ?
Best
Galinha, there must be something wrong with your setup. On an iPhone 4 I was getting 7-8 hours of battery life. SGS2 lasts me a day at least. I'm using stock ROM and kernel.

Lol it was just a joke (remember iPhone-you're holding it wrong?).
I'm using cognition and ninphetamine. I took my phone off charge about 15 hours ago and my battery is at 73%. Made a few phone calls, sent a few messages, played wordfeud, used opera and some random stuff playing around in the phone. I suspect there might be something wrong with your phone or there's an app that isn't running correctly. Why don't you back up your photos etc and try a reset?
Definitely something is not right because for me the GS2 has the best battery life out of all the smartphones I've used!

Whats the matter
Maybe dont matter to you but i spent 600 euros in a device that after 12 hours is dead....without bat , no matter rom or kernel i use...
Realy in terms of battery all cooked roms are equal...The rom and kernel that Will make The difference Will be The one that is really battery friendly ...
Mate my phone is the best for me. i was like you wondering what im doing wrong and i got **** battery. but i read about it and chopped and changed kernels till i found the best one for me. now i can use my phone for a day or two without charging it
I am coming from an SGS and have just snapped up an SGS2, both of which I am very happy with. I am a heavy smartphone user, I can't do without them because they have made my life easier and more enjoyable in a number of ways.
There often are occasions when I would never make a full day on a single charge, on *any* smartphone. Now, one of the iPhones' several showstoppers for which I could NEVER buy one and for which I think it's an absolute POS and it's really for people who do not need smartphones, is their non-removable battery! The SGS2 has a removable one so I can't understand all the talk about having to worry and limiting oneself in using one's smartphone!!
An original Samsung battery for the SGS and SGS2 costs around € 18 here in Italy and an original desktop charger is about € 20. I had 3 1500mah batteries for the SGS and have 4 1650 ones for the SGS2. However long I am out and about I NEVER run out of juice and however many batteries I use in any given day I just charge them once I am at home! What's easier and simpler than that????
Even when I have just used a single battery and still have some charge left by the end of the day I NEVER plug in my phone at night, I put it in airplane mode and keep it handy on the nightstand to use as an alarmclock and to quickly check whatever I may need after I go to bed (an appointment, a note, something on the net etc etc). Once the battery runs out (during the next morning or whenever) I switch batteries and charge the depleted one when I am back home. So even if you can make a whole day on a single charge having at least 2 batteries and a desktop charger which can charge your battery alone, you would never have to keep your phone on the leash of the powercord and limiting your freedom in using it!
Lighten up guys..
if you want a guide on the rom that you are using and how to get the best out of it follow the link below and hopefully that will help you out

Moving to Q&A
The Galaxy S III unit is certainly big enough. When they said they would improve the battery life on their next Galaxy, I was thinking at least 2,300 mAh. A small gripe, but something to be desired.
I can't complain with 7 hours of screen on time..
How long do you need your phone to last? A bigger battery would always be nice but I'm definitely not complaining. I average around 4-5 hours of screen on time from one charge on complete stock with good brightness. Do we really need more?

The question is, do we really need less? There's already small 4.3" display phones that run over 3,000 mAh. With the size of this unit, they simply could have taken to task their claim of wanting to improve battery life a little more sufficiently. The more powerful these devices get, the more demanding their battery life is.

The DROID RAZR also has a non-removable battery which probably contributes to that.
Removable or not, it's still been done. I'm not saying this phone should go 3,000+ mAh; as that would sacrifice body thinness, but they probably had more to work with that they didn't utilize.

Possibly, but apparently the general population cares more about thin devices than battery life.
Either way, I'm generally not going to use the phone for 7 hours everyday so it makes no difference to me.
Honestly, I expected less than what I am getting from the battery life, so I am more than happy. You also have to remember, battery life is a big selling point for the next models. I am certain they could have easily tweaked the design/battery and given this phone another 10+ hours standby or something like that, but that limits the sales features for the next model. You want to make your new device good but not so good that the next new model doesn't seem as impressive.

Same. I've been using mine plenty today since 7 in the morning (can't call it heavy usage, but definitely was not "light") and it still has over 60% (its now the end of the day here). Couldn't be happier with the battery.
Well... obviously I could, but I definitely can't complain.
I wish mine was gd too.. but kworker processes are draining my battery life yet no ideas how do resolve yet...
I get 11 hours at 60% yesterday, so that's excellent on stock Rom with all the bloat, sure cm9 Rom at same hours and same use was still 86% and I always leave bt gps wifi and full brightness always on

Probably Samsung will bring an extended battery(+modified back cover) just like they did with the sgs2... having said that I have no problems the battery life with the stock battery

Don't forget The SGS3 battery is 3.8v, whereas the SGS2 battery is 3.7. If you look at the watt hours, SGS3 is just under 8, where as stock 1650mah battery is just over 6. 33% increase in batter size!
I'm rooted and running stock Vodafone rom (OTA update), but I've frozen a lot of the rubbish (and installed siyah kernel!). I'm getting very good battery life with 3-5 hours of screen on. Basically, it's not ever once not "got me through the day", even when I first got the phone and I was abusing it.
Standby times could be slightly better, and there are some other issues that are draining battery (fast dormency is a pain in da ass!!), but considering the SGS3 is fresh out the battery life is amazing!
When I use the internet I'm using about 12% of the battery per hour which is pretty damn good and fairly close to S2 so I've got no complaints, and the last update made a noticeable improvement on battery, but the only real complaint is the battery takes over 2 and a half hours to charge so more than ever I do need a spare battery for those times I get caught short on charge.
I noticed a big improvement in battery life with the stock rom I9300XXALF6 + modem I9300XXLF5. Using only for calls, on average, by 10 hours consumes 10% of the battery.
This battery is big and enough for day to day use but when i want to watch some episodes I'm always carrying a backup charger.

Some here - 1 hour/1% with moderate use (a few calls, messages, random goofing). (att, stock rom, int. version, sync off, auto brightness)
Im quite satisfied, battery is like just as i expected
Hello fellow members.
My battery is almost 2y old. I think it's just gone bad already after this time.
5 days ago i changed my rom to newest ReVolt rom and kernel to newest Dorimanx.
Just before that (so i think it's not a case) i noticed significant baterry drain on screen on and off. Its about 1% every 3 min on screen on and about 20% slepp thru 8h in airplane mode (when i sleep)
But can i somehow chceck is my battery charging to the full capacity as new battery ?
If i'm not clear pls ask.
Without getting another battery to do a comparison or without dedicated battery testing gear, unlikely. However, I'd be getting a new one if one managed to last me two years without crapping itself well before that.
Edit - Having said, that, you can be fairly certain a two year old battery would either not be able to hold a charge/discharge as efficiently as a new(er) battery given batteries lose the ability to do these things the more you use them/the more you charge & discharge them
Buy a new one.

End of october im getting a S4 so wanted get thru somehow
But cant you check the real capacity with some app ? and whats the capacity of new original sammsung battery ?
Yep I hear you on the holding out for a new phone thing; I was going to wait until about then but my S2 started playing up hardware-wise & pretty much made the decision to go earlier for me.
From memory, a newish standard SGS2 battery holds around 4200mV full & about 3500mV close to empty (and I'm going way back in my memory here as I used a 2000mAh battery for all but the first two months), but that can be a little bit variable. I think given the age of the one you have, if it's significantly under that @ 100%, it's probably safe to say it's on its last legs (which is likely anyway purely because of how long you've had it).
So I think there's a rule about 'this device vs that device', so I'm not trying to start one of those threads.
I've done quite a bit of reading and the issue seems to be that reviews are VERY inconsistent with the latest flagships when it comes to battery life. For example, the Galaxy S6 has a smaller battery but the only half decent testing I could find rates it's life as better than the HTC M9 and the LG G4. So really not that bad...? But some reviewers on youtube have said things like 'The LG G4 has noticeably better battery life'. I understand mileage may vary but surely if most tests put the S6 above the others then it should come out as better *most* of the time?
Essentially, I have an HTV One M8, and the battery life has been great for me. Really, really great. Is the S6 likely to be significantly worse? I can remember my Nexus 4 was abysmal, no matter what I did it was a real struggle to get through a day (With a rooted phone running greenify and trying various kernels, battery saving apps etc)- I never want to go back to worrying about my phone battery like that.
So, is there a 2015 flagship worth buying with this in mind? Or should I wait for the next batch?
PS I dont care about charge time or removable batteries. Lets assume I'm travelling for days at a time with charger access only at night, and can't carry spare batteries (because if I wanted to do that, I could just as well carry a USB battery pack).

From what I've seen, the S6 doesn't have stellar battery life, but it's not poor either. Average. Look at Sony, but last year's models, the Z3 and Z3 Compact. They're extremely capable, they don't have battery-hogging QHD screens, and no overheating Snapdragon 810. Or, if you want to wait for the next batch, grab a OnePlus One for cheap to use in the meantime.
I've not seen any discussion on battery life since the launch of the Note 10. Would people please share:
1. How is it now that there's been time for Samsung to fix early issues
2. Did Android 10 upgrade help?
3. Does it last through a day of heavy use?
4. Snapdragon or Exynos?
More info: I'm considering buying the Note 10 but the original reviews are mixed. Some say battery life is good but most say it's disappointing. It would be to replace an iPhone XS that is 12 months old, battery health is a shocking 84% and the SoT time is less than 3 hours, so I won't be buying any more overpriced junk from Apple. I'm in the UK so would be getting the Exynos unless I take a risk and grey import a Snapdragon, and live without the warranty.
More battery life is *always* better, but I really have no complaints about my Note 10 battery. It lasts all day, every day. I average 5.5 hours SOT, but it would get a lot more if I pushed it below 10% charge. However, I rarely let it drop below 30%, or fully charge to 100%. I try to take it off the charger between 60-80% to preserve long-term battery life. So while 5.5 hours SOT may seem low to other Note users, I am averaging 5.5 hours SOT from only a 50-70% charge, which is pretty damn good imo.
I disabled some apps that I'll never use, but otherwise I don't need to gimp it to make it through the day. I noticed a slight improvement in battery life with Android 10. I don't do much gaming, but I do a lot of web browsing, YouTube, and listen to Google Play Music and Sirius XM, and it has no problems lasting a full day.
I have the Snapdragon model. I don't have any experience with the Exynos model, but if you are in the UK, then I would recommend going with Exynos just for the warranty. There may be some YouTube videos comparing the battery and performance differences, you may want to look for those. I remember a couple of years ago the Exynos models were noticeably worse as far as battery, but I think the latest Exynos chips have closed the gap.
If battery life is a top priority, then you should consider the Note 10+ which has 23% larger battery (4300 vs 3500 mAh).
One last thing to consider: The Galaxy S20 models are right around the corner. I am not trying to talk you out of a Note, but if you can live without the Spen, you might want to wait for the Galaxy S20 Plus and Ultra. The Plus model is supposed to have a 4500 mAh battery, and the Ultra is rumored to have a massive 5000 mAh battery.

Thanks for taking the time to reply - appreciate it. Sounds like our usage patterns are similar. I don’t really game but I use web and media on public transport for a couple of hours a day, in poor signal areas so every phone I’ve had struggles.
Am trying to keep phone size down, the Note 10 Plus is definitely too big! I like the fact that with the standard Note 10 it’s almost the same size as my current iPhone XS, just 5mm taller.
Re graduating (haha) I’ve had android before. Before this iPhone I had the OnePlus 5T and really liked it until I changed cars and it completely refused to talk to the audio system.
I found a YouTube video comparing the Qualcomm and Exynos Note 10’s and in his test he got 7 hrs from the Exynos and 8hrs from the Snapdragon. Wow, bit of a difference.
Will see what the S20 (standard size) is like, and then decide whether to risk an imported Note 10 [emoji106]

Correction, the video of the Snapdragon getting another hour of screen time is the S10, not the Note 10, which means the Exynos is the 8nm 9820 rather than the 9825 in the Note.

So i got my Exynos note10 (not a new one, a used one but in a good shape) a week ago running android Q, and the battery drain was a little bit higher than average (compared to what people claiming in the battery section). So i decided to do a fresh reset by flashing a firmware using odin, after that i did some optimizations, disabling features that i dont really need, debloating some apps and waiting for the phone to learn my battery usage pattern (it took me around 4-5 days).So now I can get 7 to 8 hours of SOT using Chrome as my web browser, social media apps, and youtube. So yeah i think the 3500 mah battery is doing a pretty good job.
That’s really good, lots of owners don’t get that out of the Plus model

So the first thing i did was to flash a stock firmware and root it using magisk. Then i charged my phone until it get 100%, i use it until it dies and cannot get booted again (when the phone dies keep rebooting it until it cannot get rebooted again). I did the charging and discharging thing twice. I think this step is like calibrating your battery, correct me if I am wrong.
Then thanks to this post : https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10/how-to/galaxy-note-10-note-10-plus-debloat-t3964225 i debloated Bixby, samsung pass / pay , samsung sticker center... Do this step at your own risk because you can brick your phone if you didnt choose correctly what to debloat.
Then i enabled Adaptive power saving, put unused apps to sleep, Optimise Battery usage and i restricted background activity and i use dark mode all the time.
I disabled Air action and all features related to S pen ( i only use s pen for writing).
You may not notice a big difference in the battery life until your phone learns usage pettern ("Learning pattern" usage becomes "An estimated time" in device care battery's section)
If you are on a rooted phone then you can use greenify to hibernate other apps.
Additional information, my phone battery drains from like 100% to 80% much quicker and then it start to go slower and slower because each battery behaves in a different way.
Took another look at the Note 10 today and think it's an absolutely stunning looking device. Best looking phone around for me. I noted in the Samsung store that they don't offer any sort of satisfaction guarantee, which is disappointing. Would have been tempted to take one if I had some insurance on the battery life not working out.
But the S20 has now launched, and it's impressive from a specs point of view. Time to see how the S20 reviews play out.

You are wrong this is really old battery habits. For several years and actual battery tech it's not recommended to fully discharge , the best way to improve battery life is to stay over 20% and avoid fast charging. That is also not how phone calibrates batteries.

Battery life on the Snapdragon Note 10+ has been great. It stayed consistent with the Android 10 update. I had the Note 8 before this phone, and I'd have to say the 10+ is better.
Indeed the difference is not so abysmal as before

Actually, there is a comparison for Note 10+ Exynos vs Snapdragon and indeed, the difference in battery is now minimal, of course the weak point for the Exynos is still the Mali GPU. So it looks like for power comsuption is now more even between Exynos 9825 and Snapdragon 855 (which is kind of obvious since both are 7nm)

Interesting thanks.
One of the things I’ve been bitten with on iPhones is the effect on battery life of the inferior Intel modems they’ve been using for the last few years. I went from an iPhone SE to an Xs and the difference in signal strength was definitely noticeable, and that will affect power consumption too.
I’m not saying this is the same with the Exynos modem but do tend to think that at this point, Qualcomm modems are the better
