I don't know what happened but I'm having issues. I cannot get the display to fall below 75% and it sucks because between my EVO stock battery and my extended battery you can actually see the battery life being sucked away rapidly.

I have the same issue, it is isolated to Sense roms. It doesn't happen with AOSP, which is why those are the only roms I can use due to the battery life. We had a thread going for a while with some other people who had the same problem, but nobody could really get to the bottom of it. I reached out to Aamikam but he couldn't really help or didn't want to. I didn't know if a logcat or anything would have helped but no one really answered me. It happens on froyo and gingerbread sense roms, and I never had the issue for a long time but then I noticed it the first time on MikFroyo 4.62. I've tried everything since then but no results.
Only thing to do right now is switch to an AOSP rom, I highly recommend Team Nocturnal's Xplod. Very smooth with Tiamat 3.3.7 kernel and more eye candy than CM7. I would love to be able to use MikG again but my battery literally dies in 4 hours, regardless if I'm using the phone or not.
Alot of ppl seem to think that 75 percent or more of display is bad. Really it isn't. The battery stats need to equal 100 percent. On sense roms that's the way it is and there is nothing wrong with it. Now if your experiencing high.android system usage, that's a problem. As long as everything else is relatively low, its all good

Its after I installed the new update. Even downgraded to earlier gingerbread and still 75 plus.
Yes my system is low but I can watch my battery meter lower in realtime. Well I guess its time for a new toy.

If your actively using your phone and it drains rapidly that's pretty normal in my experience. But if its draining a lot during idle, check for a rogue running app. Otherwise not using auto brightness is a good mentioned trick along with underclocking with a new kernel should help

It has to do with the use of a generic power_profile.xml. Neither CM or stock use correct values for this.

You don't get it...this is not normal display usage. I remember what my battery usage and battery life was like before this problem came up and there was a huge difference. Before, cell standby was my highest usage and I could get 25-30 hours on a charge. Then display usage shot up to 90% give or take some, and battery life dropped to 4-8 hours. I can understand if display was slightly higher than everything else, but display is at 75-95% while everything else is under 5 or 10. There is absolutely no reason why the display usage should be that high even when the screen has been OFF the entire time. That's not normal. I have multiple screen shots to back it up.

Is there a way to fix or change this? And is there a reason why it happens to some people but not others?

Ouch ... bump charge it and wipe battery stats in recovery. Or maybe even do a fresh install. Sometimes that will fix it
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Stop spreading that freaking lie. Wiping the battery stats doesn't do anything. Besides it is wiped every time the phone is charged to 100%. Don't believe me. Look it up, a Google engineer has posted this along time ago.

WIping battery stats is useful when installing a new ROM, so it can measure battery capacity better (extreme tl;dr version). Install BetterBatteryStats and look for unusual wakelocks and processes. Report back with what causes the issue and we will see. If you could include screenshots of BBS, that would be the best
You don't get it do you? It is wiped when you install a ROM. It is WIPED when you charge to 100%. The batterystats.bin has no effect what so ever on your wake locks, battery problems, or anything else you think it is related to. All it does is report to the settings what has been using the battery.

You know there are nicer ways to tell someone that wiping battery stats doesn't do anything . If it doesn't do anything than it shouldn't be in the options...period. I was trying to be helpful and offer a suggestion..and it couldn't hurt to try.
.. so whats your suggestion so no more "lies" get spread??
CWM is largely generic, so the Battery Wipe option is there whatever device. It is a waste of Dev. time to remove/customise for every device.
It doesn't do anything... in this case. It may on other devices.
But this is largely OT now... so back in the room.
It doesnt do anything for any device. A long time ago it was thought to do something. But a Google Engineer said otherwise pubically.

Guys just experienced something that this battery drain only happens to me only on Sammy jb roms and not on cm10 so is there any fix for it?????????

Check that android.process.media is not running and consuming 20% of CPU cycles. This process always runs when you restart the phone as it scans the phone's internal and external SD card for media files.

Seems like all the threads i read that mention this problem the user is running Omega rom 2.x.. Maybe its something the dev as added into the rom that is causing it to kill your battery..
Got. The solution just changed the kernel. To stock and everything is as good as it was

Like someone said before it's a rogue app and the only way your going to get the battery drain issue to go away is to figure out which app is doing it and then get rid of it.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
I think the best solution for you is to factory reset or re-install android on your device once.
It will be easier than finding out where is the problem. as screen snap shows most of the battery is drained by "android OS".
It was just my opinion you can take it if you want.
My battery usage. Even though my screen on time was only about 2 hrs most of the battery was drained by the screen. So there music be something very wrong in your case.
I don't know about android virus but that might be an option.

Gonna follow along and disable my daydream as well since I'm having the same problem you are with it actually draining while on the charger (Stock ROM, Franco Kernel, OEM wall wart with gold tipped USB cable). Tis quite annoying to have to either keep the screen off or power down completely in order for this bad boy to charge...
I keep my GPS off to help my battery life, but every once in a while the GPS turns itself on randomly and tries to get a lock. It's an issue because while I'm inside it really struggles to get a lock and eats battery like a mofo. I got to work with 97% battery and an hour and a half later I now have 85%.
What can I do to stop this from happening short of waiting for cyanogenmod?

Install System Tuner, free from market (lots of annoying ads, no big deal).
Click the red System Android, click Android System, Details, then uncheck all 7 CarrierIQ related processes.
Worked OK for me and no FC issues with calls or anything.

Hi,
I'm trying to understand why phone is out if deep sleep so much.
When looking in most apps of battery/wake/cpu usage, i see that android system and android os are responsible to most of the usage. The problem is that all history accumulating apps do not breakdown the processes under "androud os" and "android system" .
I am looking for an app like that if anyone knows.
Thanks.

Hi bud!
Android System Tuner Free suggests it's LGE Gravity Sensor, so I am charging my phone to 100, Disabling "Knock-on" and see how it goes Stay tuned.

So far I am at 94%. 34 minutes of screen on time.
Android system usage still 19%
Android OS down to 10%
I seriously need help, seems like "Knock on" isn't the main culprit.
I hoped it's not that, as i really like it.

Me neither, though it's hard to tell right now with only 6-7% drained.
The phone is "harder" to use with knock-on disabled. I'll keep you tuned
If all you see in your app is android os and android system, then it does not drill down in them to show which of the processes/modules is consuming.
That's what I'm looking for.

Try both Android System Tuner Free and GSam Battery monitor.
Gsam is no good as it does not breakdown to apps in android system/os, but android tuner is great.
I see that most of my drain is from screen and after that it is lge_gravity_sensor and dhd_dpc which is wifi related.

Try disabling Google now. Also disable the Google location settings and I bet your battery life will double.
Never used google now.
Will try to disable location services.
