So far, not a single hiccup, Sense UI redraw/reload, nothing. Has been completely and utterly stable. Phone is used almost 24/7 as my daily driver and gets pushed pretty hard constantly.
I'm a believer .

And fantastic battery life to boot!

I am looking very forward to SR 4.0 I have heard rumors that it is in the making an if so this would be great!

This makes me want to root..... so f*#%&n bad!

It's not a rumor, you can see previews of it in ROM Manager if you're using Skyraider 3.5.

No reason not to really, unless you're very technically uninclined. Even then...the process couldn't be more simple.
Up to 182 hours now with 92 hours of awake time. Seeing excellent battery life as well throughout the day for this phone.

SkyRaider is fantastic, I've been running SR Athena myself as my daily driver for a month-ish now and have zero complaints. SR is a great ROM, too bad there's only a few updates en route for us down the road.

How exactly is it a fake?
132 hours of UP TIME is not 132 hours UNPLUGGED.
That's 132 hours (now 205) without a reboot. Not without being charged.
I'm not really sure what you're getting at here trying to call me out saying it is fake. What is so fake about it? Enlighten me.
And on another note that is actually relevant,
Hard to argue with that kind of battery life...and in a low-signal area to boot.

People post battery stats to show battery life ..that is .amount of battery left after so many hours awake time.....NOT to show how long your phone has gone without a reboot. Frequent auto reboot is not an issue with most Roms. Next time when you attach battery stats....clarify that you are not really showing battery life.

I posted the screenshot of the page to show total uptime, and even said "Up to 182 hours now with 92 hours of awake time. Seeing excellent battery life as well throughout the day for this phone." If that didn't get the point home in conjunction with the word "stable" then oh well, misunderstandings happen. The majority of the posters in the thread certainly seemed to get the point. Crashing and reboots seem to be more of a problem with a few different ROMs so I was pleasantly surprised with the stability of Skyraider in comparison.
I just find it curious that when one person misunderstood, a consecutive few more decided to jump on the bandwagon without thinking before they spoke. Interesting .

That's how I took it from the beg, the bandwagon just helped reinforce my misinterpretation... glad u found a rom that makes u happy, seriously, its a great feeling. And don't let the haters get to ya so much

I have 454 hours uptime with mikmik's "incredibly R-Engineered Z 1.1" rom right now... Just sayin'
Although as soon as Skyraider comes out with a Z rom I'll be back!

SkyRaider is pure awesomeness.

My display is eating my battery! Help?

Well it seems I may have a problem here as my battery is being destroyed by my display. The usage on the pic is nothing compared to some crazy results I've seen. Heck I've seen 94% of my battery being used by my display. Is there a way to fix this?

To paraphrase and give you the TL;DR version:
Better the display taking up the battery than the 3G radio...

On any phone, the display is going to be the biggest source of power drain no matter what. This is why when a new display technology emerges, the developer always talks about the power saving ability of said technology.
Also, you need to understand that it is not 62% used, it is 62% of what IS USED. So if you used 30% of battery power then .30 * .62 = 18% of overall battery life is used to power the screen. It makes sense because no matter what you do, most likely your screen is going to be on, especially if you are reading xda.

OK. Thanks its just freaking me out. Sometimes ill leave the screen off and ill check battery usage and its like in the 90's so I'm like wtf I haven't used my phone. And I just got on xda too see if I can get a fix for this.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I just tried to find the thread but couldn't (thought I had it "subscribed to").
So essentially, the fact that you've got a 4" screen as the primary drain on the battery shouldn't be that surprising. It actually speaks to the efficiency of the device. In other phones, either the phone idle state or the cell standby state would be the biggest suckers of battery life, which is a bad thing as it's polling the towers too often which drains battery quicker.
There are a few tips in the forums to save battery life like auto-dim, use wifi instead of 3G (not sure if this one), use a black background, etc... But I do think that PaiPiePia did a great job at explaining it =)
As posted above it's not as bad as it looks but you can do something. Run jac's uv/oc w/color fix. It allows you to drop your brightness even lower. This works well for me as most of my use is indoors. Plus the kernel being under volted obviously helps.
Exactly if you have things that are using more power than your screen then you have problems.
as others have said, it's indeed percentage of USED battery. And display should always be using the most - unless you hardly ever use your phone.

Most of the time my voice calls is the top of my list. I prob do 2-3 hours of phone calls a day. With that much time on the phone is it still bad that my voice is number one?

Nope, that would do it. 2-3 hours would eat up close to 50% of your battery. I make maybe 20 minutes of calls a day at most, so display takes up anywhere from 50% to 75% of total drain.

Yup, I have set the phone on my desk over the weekend (48+ hours) and the battery only drop down to 86%.
It is possible, just don't use a bunch of widgets/auto sync options and make sure its in a good reception area and it will last for a while.

- No setCPU, but kernel has one built in.
- No bump charging.
- Light use, I purposely tried to not use it too much just because I was curious how long it could make it (like if I were ever stuck somewhere without a charger, knowing how long my phone could last if I did not constantly stay on it).
~ 1.5 hours of 3G pandora
~45 mins of texting
~30 mins phone calls
~20 minutes of 'My Tracks' app
~15 mins GPS navigation
~10 mins angry birds (tehehe, couldn't resist)
3G, GPS and location were ON entire time.
Thought I'd share
since skyraider is a sense rom you can use that kernel?
i thought incredikernal was AOSP?
edit:
i'm retarded.
was thinking of the new incredikernal. fail on my part!
invisiblek is AOSP, incredikernel is Sense
(actually chad aka incredikernel is starting to develop some new GingerBread AOSP kernels)
Wanted to subscribe, forgot to!
To what do you attribute the most battery life to?
o 2150 mah battery?
o Kernel?
o Skyraider?

2150mAh definitely, Kernel next and Skyraider after that. I saw noticeable improvements when I used Sky Raider over stock, and used chad's incredikenel over stock so I feel they have significant improvements on battery life for sure.
With screen off I'll get about 1.5 hours per %, with screen on and doing things it's completely different.
Much of this test was to see how long it would last with screen off and with those services (like 3G) running.
Very impressive. Don't think I can go over 24 hours with stock battery, CM7 and incredikernel.
I think I can get 24 hours, with reasonable use. I use juice defender which REALLY helps a lot - at least in my life.

the 2150 makes the phone so ugly and disfigured I couldnt use it. I am running SR3.5 but I get great batt life with Lou #8 kernel and the 1800mah Inc/Evo batt.
Unfortunately battery problems will be around for a while, did you hear the rumors about the T-bolt batt? LOL, 3 totals hours on a full charge! These "phones" or whatever you want to call them are so powerful and do so many different things its hard to design a strong battery at that size. Phone management is crucial.
thats impressive, im still using my stock battery and I'm tired of worrying about it dying and bump charging

I too got some crazy long battery life on Skyraider 3.5. Only reason I left was because ihtfp is no longer supporting them. When I tried MIUI for the 3rd time I really got into it (using LP) but I haven't been able to reproduce that awesome battery life I had on SR... Yet, at least.
I also dearly miss the Awake Time stat. All aosp roms should have that.

With a case on it, it's really not bad looking at all. Looks pretty sweet, and have gotten a couple of compliments on it
I got my case from here:

Without the case I'll admit it looks a bit weird though not that bad.
And about the thunderbolt only lasting 3 hours?
lul cakes, I read this:
http://androidcommunity.com/htc-thu...ored-to-be-due-to-poor-battery-life-20110228/
I thought HTC would have learned from the incredible that they seriously need to upgrade the battery. I hope they do a full redesign where they stick just a long battery down the entire back of the phone so people don't have to get extended batteries that bulge out.

Battery Jumping Issue on Gingerbread

This is a serious problem for me, and ive seen many others report it
it started with the HK 2.3.4, and i thought the ATandT build would fix it but it hasnt
The battery readings all over the place, it will say 40% left, but if i restart it itll go back to 59% and etc..
I have done a battery callibration, wiped battery stats, all that good stuff, it has not helped.
I flashed 1.8.3 SBF and then went to the ATandT gingerbread (gingerblur), so everying was wiped, but i still have this problem
Does anyone know how i can communicate this issue to that motorola forum guy Matt,
its very annoying and is making our batteries look very mediocre
Check out my battery life ...nice huh?

Considering these builds are likely not at all final, it's probably something they either have fixed on another build, are working on fixing before the beta, or will fix during the beta.
Basically, I think we'll have to wait for the official release unless Kenn can patch a fix into his own rom.
this seems to be a problem after installing the 1% mod. every time i install it it happens no matter how many times i wipe... once i reflahed with beta 4.5 everything works perfect
I had the 1% mod , wish i never did
but flashed 1.8.3 and flashed to beta gingerblur again, i don thave the mod right now
but still seeing this

Motorola isn't going to give 2 hoots about your problems since you flashed a leaked firmware, which wasn't for your specific model anyway!

I had a widget that displayed 1% increment battery levels and that showed the same deal as before. It's not a problem with the mod. All they do is read the system files reporting battery level anyway.

If you read more carefully, you'll notice it actually is for our specific model
Gingerblur is based on the ATandT 4.5.91
to clear ur confusion, i did have hk and 1% mod in the past. But i then flashed 1.8.3 SBF (which is for at and t atrix)
So right there, all the past is history, im stock.
THEN went to 4.5.91, and still have problems, as do others
It's got to be a bug in the Moto ROM. I'm sure it will be fixed either by our devs or their's
My front facing camera will not work
Sorry to the OP if this is off topic, but didn't want to start a new thread.
Issue is, battery drains faster than it is getting charged while in use. playing game on it while charging and still sucks battery dry. any constructive thoughts is welcome

100% is the maximum
therefore if we assume a basic scenario with three things using this 100%, lets say:
Android OS - 50%
Display - 30%
Something else - 20%
Total = 100%
Now, if we do not turn on the device's screen, the next result will be something like:
Android OS - 75%
Something else - 25%
Total = 100%
Does this mean that Android OS is now using more power? NO!
What this means is that Android OS has used a larger percentage of the power used BECAUSE THERE ARE FEWER PROCESSES GOING ON!!
In the above example, the total amount of power used has actually fallen.
But the genius folk who complain about Android OS (AKA idiots) all of a sudden believe that Android OS is now using more power and start moaning like a bunch of little girls. As you can see from some elementary mathematics... this is a load of b*ll*cks.
Do you understand now?

The battery is fine. Everyone's just getting worked up over the percentages that are reported.
L o L, whats going on here

Oh oh, effin' manual right?
so tell me, wise guy, have you heard of DVM ( sorry, aka Dalvik Virtual Machine) and native/core libraries?
I bet you already know everything that is to know about them an you're ok that those, along the kernel drivers< let me enumerate for you, so you don't have to wake your brain from deep sleep and wait for the 1 sec lag: display, camera, wifi, keypad/keyboard(if present),audio, flash mem, BinderIPC DRIVERS and power management> are grinding so much battery that it depletes in , let's say, 20 hrs.
Well, my hat's off to you, sir. You hold the power and the knowledge to be perfectly satisfied with what others don't understand.
As for the one that suggested to buy the Sensation and quotes the display off analogy, what could I say more? He explained how battery works so I'll buy the Sensation or whatever he wants after he explains how magnets work.
Sorry, my mistake. You were perfectly right

Couldn't agree more. Because, either the percentages are not accurately reported or something is draining power when it shouldn't.
My mistake.
How long is the display up and running?
Heres an attached screenshot of my usage for the past few days.

You have no apps installed.
I have, only 96 apps though. We all have different usages.
Alright, if the percentage doesn't say anything, why don't they use another measures? Like mAh or other units.
Also these 15 hours WiFi was turned on most of the time. I used to turn the screen on and check Facebook/Google+/browse for 2-5 minutes, every 30-60 minutes. So let's just say the display was on for about two til three hours over this 15 hour period. Compared to 19% for the display I would say 50% is A LOT for AOS/CPU usage.
On a 2-3hr usage, at the AOS is THAT high its pretty much a LOT! Look at how low my AOS is compared to Andriod system, heck even cellstandby is taking up more power.

Nice uptime, but I guess you don't use packet data OR talk to friends/ppl because after all it is a PHONE you have at your possession.
So it seems imo that you AREN'T a normal user like the most of us, making phone calls and receiving them in avg per day, which is about 1 hour (call and receive) and letting packed data being online.
Correct me if I am wrong about this analysis.
Without seeing your wake bar and wakelock stats its hard to have any idea what your phone is doing.
Try using better battery stats(link in my sig) to see if you have any out of place wakelocks.

Post your battery life results!!!

I've made a thread like this in the Sensation forums and it was quite popular so I thought I'd make one here as well, as I'm really curious how far can the Xoom really go in terms of battery life !
So the general format of how the posts should look like should be this:
Running (stock/stock+rooted/custom(name) rom) on my (model).
Here is a picture (insert battery life screen shot).
I'm (undervolting or no undervolting)
PS: Make sure you don't charge your xoom as it makes the results invalid and useless!
OK! My turn:
I'm running Stable EOS 3 custom rom on my MZ604 WiFi only Xoom.
Here is a picture of my battery results:
online photo sharing
And this one:

No undervolting was done.
The only question left is, can you beat me?!
I usually don't take pictures of stuff like this, so next time when I get over a week of usage on my XOOM I will post it here. I should note I put it in airplane mode and have the WiFi and bluetooth on all the time, though I believe the WiFi does turn off after the device goes into sleep. It's a MZ601, uses Team EOS nightly builds always on the latest. Stock speeds and yeah.

A whole week? Isn't that a bit exaggerated? Mind you, I just got the xoom so I can't talk, but a week? That's a nice result.

I guess it goes to show how little I actually know about this tablet That is just simply amazing

Pretty much, I don't use it much, maybe one or two hours most each day.
Mine is a bit bias as I'm forever flashing and trying to edit/theme and therefore loads of time is spent in recovery/rebooting/'android upgrading'
but anyway, here it is:
CM10 Nightlies

Seems great. However, could you maybe tell us or show us the screen time as well?

Sure mate, just under 3 hours, 2hr 55mins to be precise.
I generally think I get pretty decent battery life out of my xoom

Some more results:
CM10, MZ604
The only part really worth posting is the screen on time.
This damn thing can literally go weeks technically "on" because there is practically no battery drain when its "asleep."

In some ways that is true. However, what if somebody just charged it to 100% and played with it non-stop, so that the screen on time went to 12 hours. You say,"That's amazing". But some people don't have the time to play with them for 12 hours straight So the overall time adds towards the actual battery life, since it still loses some battery life during the sleep or the night. Take me for example, I play with it 3 hours a day and can go for as long as 2 days before charging it again.
I've said this before, but I'll say it again. This tablet is amazing !

Here are some pictures:
As I stated before I don't use my XOOM much, but I did use it a lot for music streaming to my bluetooth headphones and also watched a movie on it. Lol
And oh I had about ~35% left
EOS 3 Stable. No performance mods. Usually see a week at least between charges.
