normal depending on use
Hi all just wanted to do a comparison for battery life. I think that the biggest factor is having your display on and what kernal you use. So fill this out please so everyone can know battery life based on rom/kernal combos. :]
Samsung Fascinate
Rom: JTs V.7 DJ05
Kernal: Stupidfast 1.54
% battery remaining: 1
Standby time: 14h10m
Screen time on: 4h12m
Screen brightness setting: Auto
Setcpu: no
Settings: N/A
If you think theres any other factors to add just let me know.
I like the idea. Hopefully it is practical, so many variables. I would suggest streamlining the report a little bit, adding time spent without signal to standby, and changing SetCPU to be Extras: (only list items if you have them), live wallpaper, launcher, setcpu
Also I would add
Most used: Map 13%
Swyped from my i500.04 (bh &1129) using XDA App

Thats awsome soba (gets off to try that combo now)
Ill just be stoked when we get froyo in twelve million years.
Froyo has increased battery life on my X by like a good 5 or 6 hours.
I charge my fascinate nearly twice as often

Hey soba would you say that Bh has bettery battery life than JT?
Well note that I am running JT's kernel. In terms of the ROM, of course I am very happy where I am, but not because I believe the battery life is superior. I did run super clean 0.5 no voodoo, but not long enough to make a proper battery life comparison. In fact, I believe comparing different installations to get a handle on battery life or perhaps some practices that might improve it is the intention of the thread.

I'm using Beautiful Widgets, set to update weather every hour, along with LauncherPro+ set to update Friends widget every hour (Twitter/Facebook). No Live wallpaper, minor gaming (maybe 10 min). Today has been a light usage day as I was busy with other stuff and had less time to play with my phone.
BlackHole 2.4 w/ DJ05, jt 1129 no voodoo:
4 hours, 1 minute display. 24 hours standby. 3% battery left. Just a rough estimate, didn't take formal report. Subjectively same battery life as 2.2 w/ IRC dj05.
I thought we could have a thread posting battery statistics in the similar fashion to the one on the Captivate General forums.
1. Make sure your battery is properly calibrated.
2. Charge the phone overnight.
3. Start using your phone in the morning and do not charge throughout the day
4. When your battery hits ~5% record your statistics.
Here's my latest stats:
Still using K10H 256hz kernel on BUPJ8 Doc Rom v9
Have a black background with a black theme, brightness on Auto today.
5% battery after 14h4m
Display 95% with Time on 3h41m6s
Cell Standby 3%
Phone Idle 1%
In Battery History
Running 40.3% 5h40m without sleeping
Wifi on 16.7% 2h21m
I was using JuiceDefender till I got home and also had 3g disabled a majority of the day, however after I got home I wanted to see the drain without juicedefender on.
Drain without juicedefender when on 3g was pretty appalling, probably a % every 5-10 minutes.
Mostly just
-Bit of Tweetdeck
-Few minutes browsing web
-Texting
-Emails
-1 phone call (5 minutes)
-Read Ebooks for 30 minutes
-Played Dungeon Hunter for 23 minutes
-Music for 1hour
-Grocery list for 18 minutes while shopping
I've got brilliant screen off battery life on my SGS4, but soon as I start using the phone the battery just plummets.
I took my phone off charge, went to the bus stop, started at 100% and finished on 89%. Total off charge time 19m, screen on 12m. That's 1% every 2 minutes!
I'm sure it's not a background task, my phone goes into deep sleep most of the time. Checked CPU usage and nothing is up, got brightness to lowest and all extra features off and power saving on. I had 70% left yesterday after being nearly asleep for 13hr.
Using Golden Eye 8.0 ROM. XXUDMI1 bases with Adam kernel 1.6 and baseband XXUDMG5. I've used other ROMs to no change.
Went down by 7% just writing this!
Down to 60% battery after 1hr20min off charge which 1hr screen on
Hi, got my e7 2 days ago, updated to kk.
Everything working but call standby and WLAN eating battery, screen on for 3h 10min(consumed 10% of battery) and after 12h I have only
10% battery left. The phone wasn't awake while screen is on so it is probably not an app keeping the phone awake..
So .. wifi is always on(on battery stats, but I turned if off for 3h) and even so it shouldn't consume 28% of battery.
Standby consumed 29% of battery! But always got full signal and talked just for 10-15min.
I've done root with 360root and remove(suspend)some apps with 360root.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
