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

I am having the same issue but it doesn't seem to be a big deal as it shows quick drain when it jumps up or drains slow when it jumps down.

Hows what possible? He has the 1% battery mod which makes his battery reading way off. I can be 60% battery , reboot and it will say I'm at 90%.

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.
And really Caelan...can't you just ignore the topic if you're just going to post spam?

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

You can enjoy zero battery drain on your EVO if you follow these simple steps... These steps work best if done before going to bed.
1. Fully charge your phone and calibrate it as instructed by HTC and Cyanogen
2. Once it's fully charged, shut off the phone
3. Go to bed, and have a good night's sleep
4. Turn the phone on after sleeping all night
5. Enjoy your fully charged phone.
I have done this to a myriad of ROMS and KERNELS and I have yet to see any significant battery drainage overnight.

Best way i have found to get better battery life I found over at Android Forums.
1. Charge battery fully
2. allow battery to Drain to 90%
3. Re charge fully
As lame as it sounds i have used it on every possible combo of ROM's and it works...you only need to do it once unless you switch kernels

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,

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.

skyraider 3.5 is great. not sure on 4.0 yet.
I've installed the 2.3.5 kernel recently because people were saying it was great on the battery but i'm getting pretty tired of this...
Out of nowhere sometimes like this morning i left the phone screen off since 7.00 am full charge and i checked it now at 11.40 and the battery was at 79%... It has been awake the whole morning. I looked at OS monitor and it might be calendar trying to sync all this time without having a 3g connection or wi-fi... why would it keep the phone awake and try so many times to sync if i'm not under 3g coverage?
I used to get 3 days with 2.3.4. I'm going to revert back. Aweful update...
thanks for telling us
I thought it was calendare but apparently it isn't.
Only after clearing RAM has it stopped staying awake even with screen off.
No idea what this is all about.
How do i discover what's keeping my sgs2 awake?
Tell me about it!
I flashed XWKI8 and I have been having all sort of issues with it. My phone was terribly slow and very laggy. It was getting seriously heated up around camera.
And above all, I took it off the charger (100% battery) 7:30 in the morning and now by 3:30 PM I got no juice left in the battery! It just died upon me.
I think I will flash it back to our trusty KF3 update.
Does anyone know if I can just download it from Intratech's thread and update with ODIN, or do I need to get some kinda wipe package from somewhere?
i'm quite positive you just need to reflash the pda in odin
You have no idea what you are talking about. You start that the kernel is not good. Then you blame the calendar for keeping your phone awake. Now tell me how is that related?
You can't say that something is bad based on one experience.
If you read the replies you would've seen that calendar is not the problem...
And before the update the phone was NEVER awake if the screen wasn't on... So YES i think it's a kernel problem
Nonsense !
2.3.5 battery just fine ... better than 2.3.4
Gives me a full day when used intensive (3-4 hours of surf, mail, talk)
Gives me 2 days if used moderately
About ½% per hour standby
The real question now is... how can i see what is keeping my phone awake???

Search for 'Better Battery Stats' in XDA.
Besides, I don't think it's huge improvement in battery life in 2.3.5 than 2.3.3. I am getting almost same battery backup in recent KI3 which I was getting in previous 2.3.3 KF3. There are plenty of ROM's but I doubt there is any difference between then other than they are dedicated for different regions. It's basically a freaking thing to flash new ROM's continuously.
look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1290020
and check if it isn't the same thing that's bothering you. when you look at the built in battery stats, do you have a very high usage percentage of "Android OS"?
dude I am usin XXKI8 (2.3.5) with chain-fire root kernel KI8..
I have seen drastic improvement on battery life over KF3.. only 2% overnight drain on standby (with data connection off of course). smoother animations.. near zero lag while locking, unlocking, smoother browser.. the only thing that bothers me is occasional lag while opening gallery.. rest is superb..

Very simple : just delete it.
Your battery will thank you soon, and you will certainly stop pulling your hair out.
Anyway, you always can use mobile FB version which is actually pretty good.

No need to delete, just use the app and sign out of chat, poor design on part of facebook, but like many others using android, no investigation, just blame the update or the phone......
nah. i did not know how to see what processes were keeping my phone awake. now that i know i'm a happy new man. And i'd also like to change the title of this thread!
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.

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 !

For information...
I installed the latest c firmware (d in build prop) with LG flash tool (NOT UPGRADE), a CLEAN install.
wiped(factory reset) before flashing, then in flash tool cleared and made a CLEAN install and factory reset after to be safe (3 resets) .
Now I get very few screen misses, and screen on time 4.5 hours.
Before this I got screen on time maximum 2,5 hours.
Just wanted to let you guys/Girls in on this as it worked perfect for me and my wife.

Hi smaberg,
I was wondering if you are on the Euro 815 version of the G4? Based on your post I'm guessing you are? As a guy who knows what he/she is doing, I was wondering if you could make a flashable zip of the version d firmware? I have a mac and my understanding is you need a pc for the LG flash tool?
Figured I would ask and would greatly appreciate if you could help!!
Do you have the same set of apps installed as you did before the firmware and resets?
I saw better battery results on my second G4 vs my first, some of which I assume was because I installed a lot less apps on the second unit. Which seems reasonable to me.
What device is the OP using?
Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
I'm on international 815 (Euro).
Still using the exact same apps(didn't use LG backup Restore as it brings back the old draining Barry problem from my old backup).
And NO I can't make an zip, as it would skip some important steps. I mean I can make it, NO problem, but then you will end up with the exact same problem add the old.
hey Smaberg, can you outline the step to flash the new version? I'm using 815, but since i'm residing in Asia, my phone is not seeing any upgrades.
Yeah i also like to get exact steps you made to flash

lol at 3 factory resets..just makes me want to skip the whole ordeal
it's 2015 and google (+manufacturers) still can't get their **** together even when using the most powerful hardware available
android 5.x has been utter failure imo.
@smaberg, 4.5 hrs screenon is nothing to be specially proud on, yesterday i had 6hrs with 12.5hrs on battery. Device is H815 and firmware is v10c howecer, i got my device on saturday and did just root it this night... we will see how it behaves now.

Me too, but I did one before flash, one with the flash tool as I chose to make a CLEAN install, and the last mostly to be sure.

I know, but compared to before, with only 2 hours, sometimes even less worth stock a and b I'm pretty ☺ happy, now I'm going to deactivate some junk and see the results, and when I'm done I'll share it.
I'm trying to get the best battery without root, then with root and some of mine scripts and files mod. And we'll see where we stand. In the end maybe an ROM pure made for battery as in the old days. If some still want this? I thought/think people mostly want bling bling and speed...

Hi,
I would definitely be interested in a battery life based ROM. I find that premium phones have more than enough power you need (if youre not a gamer) so as long as the UI is smooth battery life is more important to me.

Ravi
Only used 4% battery and got this screen on time. With everything on.

That's weird, you have the economy saver logo activated but still have 62% of battery life...

You can turn it on manually which some people do to prolong battery life rather than just when on low battery.

Correct I have it on pretty much all the time. It doesn't effect anything I do on the phone and I get a lot better battery life as you can see combined with the use of App Ops, DisableService, and greenify

I don't use it because of the annoying orange colour change... How did you get rid of that??
