any help????
my wife's battery life is so bad
I use set cpu and turn down the speed when the screen is off. My battery performance is almost equal to what I used to get from the Droid1. It'll last me all day with moderate usage,
I use SetCPU as well but I am a little more aggressive.
ScreenOff = 300Mhz
Less than 50% Batt = 800Mhz
Less than 25% Batt = 600 Mhz
I also have it set to throttle down to 800Mhz when temp goes above 50C but thats not really about Battery Life.
You really don't notice the lowered CPU at all. Especially during phone calls or TXTing.
I think the real savings is in the screen off. My guess is the stock automatic scaling is not doing a good enough job on it's own when the phone is sleeping. and most of our battery life was being blown away in standby.
With those settings I have been able to go almost a day and a half on a charge with moderate use where before even light use would only get me 6-8 hours.
And that is with a BP6 not a 7!
With those settings as your battery goes lower the longer it will take to drain. It really was remarkable.

Disable WiFi or BlueTooth ..
I've noticed a wide difference in battery operating temperatures between different manufacturers. One battery consistently runs at 25 degrees C while another one runs at 38 to 40 degrees C. I'm worried that while using the higher temperature battery that I'm damaging my phone. Should I discontinue using the higher temperature battery?

I find anything over 35C to be uncomfortable, but is that temp what the battery rated for or actually produces? It was my understanding that that was the temp it could safely withstand.

I can tell you from experience that HTC phones will shut themselves off before they can damage the phone or the battery. The battery has a much lower temperature range of operation than just about anything else. IC are virtually untouched by heat below 90c. At that point, the mode of failure tends to be a degradation in the doped silicon that the transistors are made off, and it usually happens over time, not instantaneously.
Thank you!
Thank you for your very informative reply!
Hello all you xda-ers!
Please post information about the following aspects of your current device, in as much detail as possible:
Battery Life
Temperature
CPU clock
ROM
Kernel
Charger power
This survey will hopefully enable new owners like myself to determine whether or not we received a bad egg. Also, it will offer some info about how different ROMs, kernels, chargers and CPU clocks impact the Battery Life and Temps, two very contentious issues (I think?) with this device.
Awesome, lets do this
Battery Life: Newish device but VERY short - with moderate/heavy usage about 4 hours!
Temperature: 30C out of my pocket, but quickly shoots up to 40C+ after some usage
CPU: 1.5Ghz
Rom: Leedroid
Kernel: Default Leedroid kernel
Charger Power: Stock 5V 1A
Also put is whether GSM or cdma

Mikrunny using included anthrax kernel running at 1.5ghz. When not in use its around 77° F. The maximum I've seen when playing games is around 97° F. I'm on cdma btw.

Battery Life: Great. Anywhere from 16-24 hours with "light" usage, 6-10 with "moderate," and 4-6 with "heavy."
Temperature: 18C out of my pocket, average 30C, 40C after some usage
CPU: 1.2Ghz but it scales down according to battery life.
Tech: CDMA
Rom: Mine
Kernel: Currently using Anthrax Alpha RLS 9, but same temps with Stock kernel.
Charger Power: Stock 5V 1A
Who the hell rated this 1 star?
Battery Life: Pretty good. It lasts a whole day with light-medium usage (3-4 hours screen on, no games or anything).
Temperature: I think I have a phone that overheats no matter what, since it's in the top right and happens during light usage. The battery never really gets hot.
CPU clock: 1.2Ghz
ROM: ViperROM Redline RC2
Kernel: Stock? Whatever comes with the ROM im using
Charger power: Stock charger, through USB
Just got it up to 104° F playing Final Fantasy lol

That's what I want to know. I had to boost it back up.

it's nice being an insider sometimes... lulz..
same here. running inbreded ROM with rls09 alpha 7 anthrax kernel. i am at 70 perfect with a pretty decent amount of use on 10 hours now. clocked at 1.67
Battery Life: "Light" Usage, When I say "light" I mean L-I-G-H-T, like a text every once in a while, but that's about it - 30-48 hours
My personal "Normal" Usage 12-16 hours
"Medium/Moderate/Night Life " Usage: 6-10 hours
"Heavy/Drunk" Usage 3-5 Hours.
Temperature: Idk, cool when it's not doing anything, but it gets really warm when I'm doin stuff
CPU clock: Stock
ROM: ZR3D 1.5
Kernel: Stock
Charger power: A/C Stock
Seidio 1900
•Battery Life= Light use 30hrs or more .. Just texts and handful of phone calls.
Moderate use 6hr to 10hrs. Games,texts,calls,So on
Heavy use 4hr to 5hr. Helps to keep the brightness turned down alot..
•Temperature=Piss warm nothing hot just room temp
•CPU clock= Stock
•ROM= My own
•Kernel=Stock
•Charger power=Stock

Finally, some realistic battery life results. I get so tired of reading unrealistic battery life results from people but these are about on par with mine and pretty much everyone's EVO 3D if the terms "light" "moderate" and "heavy" were used loosely and/or like we're doing

I agree lol. I seen some odd ones ... Like someone snuck in with a 3500 mha battery saying they get 3 to 2 days heavy use but say they are using a stock battery lol.. I bumped the raiting up on the thread too lol..
hey
i start webbing the net and set the brightness to half sun [30% or 40%]
and got that leakage
2% of battery for one min of webbing very high
i played a bit with the brightness and it went down
i test it at power saving gov'
0% bright = 150 mA
100% bright = 350mA
very abnormal no ?
here pics with battery drain
edit:
using global FW
suil's sense4.1 rom
the transistor of the screen is not functional well ?
350 mA is pretty low actually, although I measure with Battery Monitor Widget by 3c.
Can you get GSAM Battery Monitor and post the results?

thx for reply i did the same test now
and still got 2% for min even on 0% bright
It's not screen, it's CPU using much current. Flash custom kernel and limit cpu max freq. and you will see much better battery life. I managed to have 6hrs of display on time while reading with same rom and funky kernel and cpu set to 500Mhz max in airplane mode
The lower scored benchmark is at from idle of around 40C (CPU temp) while the phone is in the room. The higher scored is when I placed my phone in the freezer and let it cool down to around 28C (CPU temp).
Why is the phone so hot even at idle? Do you r phones go as high? What are your ambient temperatures? I'm in a tropical country and it is around 29C here right now.
The battery temp is only a degree or two lower than the CPU. It's terrible for the battery to be at this temperature.
Mine is around 36 C after 30 min of browsing . inside room temp is around 22 C.
Yeah, Mine also get so hot like 40 -45 like your after 20min of used.
But our Poco got cooling system right, then why like that?
My previous Moto z play was not like that ?, It was only heat while charging because of rapid charge.
It's coz of that garbage of IU called MiUI. Every update it screwed something.

Looking at OP's screenshots, i don't think he's been using MIUI..

Mine is sitting at 31.0 degree celcius. Could be that you have many things going in your background?
