Battery optimizing [MIUI] - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Oct 26 2011
ROM: MIUI 1.10.21
Kernal: [email protected] (oct 25th 2011)
902max 122min DARKSIDE
radio stock panache
been connected to wifi this whole time
and I got 84% @ 3 hours 46min. I expected 5hrs.
Im tryin to find out what the hell is draining my battery:
Watchdog app? yahoo messenger? rogue apps? (check out pics below!)
Does anybody have a suggestion for looking for the rogue apps besides watchdog lite? or is that the best one.
Any suggestion for tweaking settings? Ive included pics of whats running

1. looks normal, cell standby is usually the highest on MIUI. how long was your display on?
2. your OC settings look a little high for everyday use. I would try to OC lower and use the superbad governor. my settings are 1017/122 superbad and everything runs smoothly
3. looks like messaging and settings are taking up some memory, try killing those with the task killer. hold down the home button and a window will pop up, on the bottom there is "task killer"
4. looks normal with your OC settings
*edit* Battery Calibration app from the market also works really well, give it a shot. charge your phone til its 100%, and leave it plugged into the charger. run the app, calibrate your battery, then unplug and youre done

Thanks! Ill definitely make those adjustments and post results in a similar time frame. I didnt know I had a built in task killer ... dam i just freed 142MB! woohoo!
oh and what the heck is this? (in pic)

wow lol Ive never seen that before probably just give it a few days for your battery to even things out and settle in. it said your battery was in use for 3 seconds so just wait

LOL battery consumed 15% in half the time than previous. I DL'd battery calibrator, lowered setcpu to 1.2ghz w/onDemand. I wonder what is involved with android systems.

if you tap on "Android System" itll show a list of all the apps and things associated, from there you can pinpoint on what is using up your battery and just kill that app. I also noticed that youre on MIUI and you have a screenshot app...you know that function is already built into MIUI, just hold volume down then tap the menu button. theres a list of all kinds of neat little button quirks in the OP of the thread

Dammit man definitely "beats" makin funnny shakin gestures ... thanks again.

Well, here is my 2 cents.
Keep i'm mind that I had pandora running continuously for almost 5 hours. I unplugged my phone at 11 am. It has been running for almost 13.hours..
I have noticed that if my phone is hooked to a wifi signal, the battery last easy 3 times more.
3 days ago I had it running for 14.hours and it was still at 74%, of course, very little use, since I was a working all day
Second image you can see that I have been keeping the screen on for 3 hours

Thanks guys ...
So today I jus setcpu!
Here is the adjustment and activities I did today in regards to battery usage:
Set CPU @ 1.1ghz smartass (same performance)
unplugged for 5hrs
4hrs using data: yahoo messenger, internet browse,gtalk
used ubermusic in traffic (bumpin "ni**as in paris" on repeat LOL)
1hr on wifi (unless wifi was automatically turned on at the mall)
no calls (TY columbus day)
Tried to take a pic at 85% to keep it consistant as the first pic. LOL
Ill be traveling this weekend so im gonna put the GPS to work.
I used GPS the other day @ 1.6ghz and the latency was so minimal
with reroutes being spoken after maybe 200-500 ft of a turn not taken.

O use MIUI.us .
I'm going to post you the progress during the day today.
I'm unplugged the phone at 9 am, right now is 11:22pm and I still have 61%
As you can see I have been all day hooked to a wifi. If i'm not in a wifi, I would be at 20% I think
Btw, my display says 48 min , so you can see that I didn't use my phone that much, I have been.working all day
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

As general information, what I did was:
Wipe everything
Install ROM
Factory reset
Install my basic apps
Drain the battery to zero
Charge it all the way to 100%
Calibrate it with the app on the market
let the battery die again til zero
Charge it again til 100%
After the second day, it was going.better
Fyi, if I am constantly on non wifi networks, it goes down faster.
And i'm using panache radio
Hope it works for you

The person before you recommended that tactic ... and I have done so to help with the result ive got.
Here is my next hurdle:
CELL STANDBY
I believe CM7 or RoyalGinger had an option to manipulate cell standby while on wifi networks. Since im not using MIUI ill be researching this to get rid of this issue.
Thanks to the replies and xda this is the longest ive had my phone unplugged @
21 hrs (i had to plug my phone via usb for 2min to get something from my SD card cause I was impatient to figure out how to send it wirelessly, so no screenshot)

to help with the Cell Standby, while connected to wifi, set your mobile network to 2G/GSM only in the mobile network settings. prevents your phone from trying to connect to 3G/4G which saves battery as well

no problem bro. yep, running TDJ's Darkside Runny v1.5.1 and its the best Sense build Ive ever flashed. along with the blissmod and quicklaunch widget, its just bad ass. I was a religious MIUI user, but this rom just drew me in. of course the battery life is shorter on Sense builds due to the UI and all the eye candy and bloat, but after 19+ hours average on a full charge, Im not complaining one bit

Do you get commission selling sense roms ? LOL dammit MAN!
i would switch up if i could get 19hrs on sense 3.5. I like its UI interaction (ie text message has address and I can highlight and go straight to navigation)
My issue aside from battery is the widgets not loading correctly on sense 3.5. Do you get that?
With all that eye candy, bloat, etc What do you run your processor at? is it still 1012max superbad?

nah, never had any problems with the widgets. everything works for me as it should. yeah Im still running 1017/122 superbad on Sense as well, no problems at all and everything is still smooth. I dont play games on my phaone, so I mainly browse the net, text, call, listen to music, etc...sync only when needed and OC when needed also.

Battery problems? Google lies?

So I found this great app that tells me how much life I have left on my battery. I find that with my phone I can hardly go pass 16 hours with MODERATE use yet everyone here is bragging about easily passing 30hrs with HEAVY use. So I'm asking you guys, to please, download this app called BatteryTime Lite and post your pics or info here. Lets compare the results. Remember to set the level to 100% as shown in my pic below..
Also I herd the P/N might be related, mine is 99HKE002-00 F ..Guessing F means Failure.

Thats what I herd too..thats why I'm also calling google a lier about saying this thing lasts 20hours with audio playback.
I'm curious, do they see a big improvement in battery when the display using 15-20% battery or its just numbers that were out a place to begin with?
I have identical figures. That combined with picking the N1 from a list says to me that these are just database figures rather than real world ones for your handset.
Root your phone and then install cyanogenmod and one of the under volted kernels. I usually get 24 - 30 hours battery life.
I just ran a test. I left the mp3 player on all night turn all the way on repeat. SO far after 8hrs of playing I was at 52%. If I'm correct, I just might be able to hit 18hrs...MMMM

No problems at all? no 3g issues?, battery only lasting a day or half? or touch screen issues?
Ok after 100% charge..the app is telling me that my phone will last 10hr:48min with moderate use....anyone thinking that the F on my P/N might mean battery sucker..
i have the exact same numbers as you. if you choose other instead of the phone type it asks you to enter your battery's info so it sounds like it only goes by the type of battery anyway. Not actual usage specific to your phone
My phone ends in an F as well. My battery life SUCKS right now. I have tried everything. The weird thing is it was good until I rooted my phone and applied Cyanogen rom. I've tried .2 and .3 for the Cyan rom's, all with bad battery life. I've tried wiping batterystats, fulling draining battery then recharging, task killer to wipe anything in the background, I even have a 2nd battery. No luck. I've also tried the undervolted kernal, but I didn't really notice a difference with it. (Only tried it for about a day so)
Bottom line though, something is going on. Something (I suspect with Cyan's roms) is killing battery life for some of us. I just wish I could figure out what it is.

Any chance you're using Weatherbug or Weatherbug elite (based on your SS)? After installing weatherbug and using the widget I got absolutely ABYSMAL battery life. I've purchased several other weather widgets and none had the effect that Weatherbug did for some reason. I removed it and battery life is back to normal again (moderate use and plenty of battery at the end of the day).

data is QUICK too... i mean quick
How long your battery lasts definitely depends on the apps youre using, I use my phone a lot, probably more than the average user, although i dont make many calls. My phone will easily last from when I leave my house around 530am till 11pm or so when I go to bed. I do use a task manager to kill stuff I dont need running every once in a while, I think it really just depends on how you use it. I use it for a lot of texting, surfing and news, and Pandora at work. I use wifi when im at home although ive never noticed it eating my battery. Yesterday I was playing Pandora over bluetooth on 3G for a little over 3 hours and it only took 5% of my battery. Im on Cyanogen 5.0.5.3, if that matters. With all that said I rarely go all day without charging it, I usually plug it in a bit at work and plug it in when I get home, but if I dont for whatever reason it easily lasts my whole day.

Which ROM gives the best battery... period?

Does anyone know? My guess is MCR or Enom... but I can't be positive. Anyone?
Im waiting for the next release of cm, if it wont improve my battery life i am going to systematically try out all the other mods to see which one gives me the most juice.
Ive had my best battery from Kings Nexus rom. Its undervolted and has easily been the best battery one.

Can you put this in context though? What was your battery life like previously? What ROMs have you used? What kernel are you using? Where can you even get 5.0.6?
Yeah battery life has to be tested to a standard method one good way to test would be to play a movie with the volume at Max with high brightness or transferring one big file over wifi for a period of time and see how fast it drains. This will act as a stress test and will bring comparisons a lot faster and more efficiently.

The one that doesn't allow you to turn on the phone. Battery lasts for weeks!
In all seriousness, using stock rom gives me a very good battery life now, lasting more than a day with almost everything on, 2 push emails, full brightness and all 3G.
CM 5.0.6 T2. so far ive got a full day of usage out of this rom with 3G all day. setcpu profiles enable. Gtalk, Twitter, Emailing. 5 or more phone calls 15 min each. Two app downloads from market.
But if i was just going to play and show off i had use Enom rom and its far by the best. for battery life. CM 5.0.5 i didnt get great battery life. i could leave my phone over night 100% and wake up to it on 80%-70% or so. with nothing in the background
An undervolted CM 5 may give you a better battery life...
Waiting for 5.0.6...
Cyanogen 5.0.6 is far and away the best ROM I've used, power wise.
Up to 5.0.5.4 I was seriously considering getting rid of my N1, as the battery would lose 80% in less than 10 hours, just sitting on standby combined with less than an hour's worth of web browsing.
5.0.6 is much better, and I'm still showing 50% after 16 hours.
Still not a patch on my old Nokia 5800, which went 3 days at a time on a single charge, but at least I have the confidence to actually use my N1 now...
I'm sorry I call BS on anyone who claims they use their phone AND get more than a day battery life. Until someone is willing to give me a Nandroid backup to restore to my phone to see what it is that is running and prove that their programs and background processes make for a 20+ hr battery, I don't buy it.
I'm off the charger since 8am and am down to 91%... it is ridiculous. I'm on an AVS kernel and Enom with not much running in the background.

Is that aimed at me?
I have a Facebook widget, along with the standard news and weather widget running, and email (NOT the Google mail app) set to refresh every 15 minutes.
I use the browser (on 3G/HSDPA) for up to an hour, here and there, and about the same on wi-fi at home.
GPS is always on, Wi-Fi and bluetooth only on when required.
The Last.fm app also gets used for up to an hour, although not every day.
Couple this with the odd phone call and text message.
The above would see my battery down to less than 20% after about 10 hours, and was really annoying.
The past few days, when I went to bed the battery was hovering around the 50% mark - although I've not used Last.fm this week.
Of course, this may not meet YOUR definition of phone usage, but it certainly isn't BS...

X10 Battery solution, Helix Launcher

The Helix launcher, the solution to the problems with the battery of the X10.
I think the main problem of the X10's battery consumption is the original launcher, which should have a process that stays resident and eats the battery.
With the Helix launcher, I managed to go from 12/14 hours of battery life up to 36 hours!
is that with your wifi on?
dude, what version of it are you using?
where can I found Helix Launcher for X10?

Correct you want HelixLauncherDonut.
I'm trying it now, I can get about 16 hours with moderate use on standard Home.

Best Regards
I debranded my fone to R1fa016 hoping to address the battery problem.. it started hopeful but went downhill after..
My standard usage waz switchin 3g on when needed, wifi at home here and there, bluetooth off, gps off unless needed and it used to last only like 10-13hrz.
However i saw option on wifi settings to never sleep and after seein mixed reviews online i thought id try it and i must say im really impressed..
Yesterday, i used 3g for bout an hr, a few quick callz, some msgz, about 2hrz of listenin to music and random phone usage from 11.30am to around half 1 in mornin today and battery waz around 70%.. then used wifi after for about hr n half and i happen to knock off cause i waz tired so wifi waz stil runnin til 11.30am and ma battery was at 45%.
I dnt like low battery so i charged it extra 20minz before I went work which brought battery life upto 62%. Today ive used about 2hrz of 3g, 3hrz of music, alot of callz n msgz and writing this long ass essay lolz and im down to 7%
Im happy with my new battery life.. and sorry 4 the boring essay but hope it helps!

what exactly is this app, where do i configure its settings? does it run on top of my other home screen?
It's an alternative home app with more features. Download the donut version from http://anonym.to/?http://helixproject.ruqqq.sg/, install and then when you press home choose Helix. Ideally set as default then reset the phone to make sure you have the default home unloaded.
cool, I've played around with it, pretty neat, will it really help battery life if i put more home screens and running widgets?

It could do. The theory is the default home is bugged and drains battery. If Helix works better then it should use virtually no CPU when idle. A buggy widget could drain battery just as easily, but if you use more homescreens then the only difference should be in RAM usage I think.

Download the application from here: Helix Launcher Donut 1.2, Put it anywhere on your sd card. Download a program such as astro that can install .apk files. Open astro, find the helix launcher in it and tap it. Select install.
this is really saving my battery, very little battery drain after 8 hours!

brb...observing improvements on battery life

Better battery life!

Hey guys & gals just wanted 2 share something with u. I recently decided 2 uninstall cetcpu from my phone & decided 2 go with cpu tuner instead.In doing so i've noticed my battery life improve significantly with some profile tweaking of course.If you've run the virtuous htc sence rom with the pershoot o.c kernal u know how disgusting the battery life can b.It literally sucks the juice out of your battery like "Debbie" from Debbie does Dallas sucks the juice out of...well u know. Anyway,i also noticed how little juice the system resources now use up. I included a screenshot of the battery status screen.Hope this helps anyone with battery issues especially if your running the rom & kernal mentioned above, it worked 4 maybe it can work 4 u. P.S I have the screen set to 20% brightness,gps,wifi,blutooth,autosync all disabled.Only reason i mention this is because even with all these things disabled along with a few other,b4 installing cpu tuner my battery would still drain like crazy. Thx.

I don't know how you guys are having such bad battery life. Currently at the moment I am at 22h 11m 51s since unplugged with 57% left. This is all with CM6.1 RC4 w/ wifi + wifi calling on all the time when I am home, autosync on for everything, auto brightness, and some use of gps. I listen to music on my phone for atleast 3+ hours walking to and from class + texting, browsing, facebook, twitter, fantasy league during class and the occasional call, pretty good usage. with setcpu on oc to 1ghz with some profiles set up.
what if im not running sense?
If it works with sense I would think it'd work with most everything else.

Is the phone not quick enough at 1Ghz? I keep mines on stock speeds, have setcpu installed but don't use, and have CyanogensMod on it. I get the whole days worth plus more of battery. I can't even kill it when I want to recalibrate it.
A whole day for me is about 16-20 hours for me without charging. This is MADNESS!

Not that the phone is not fast enough. It's placebo effect where people "feel" that it needs to be faster when they overclock it at crazy speed. The G2 has already proved itself a speed monster, none of the android phones out there can top it right now. As for the battery life, I honestly don't notice any considerable improvement.

Nice.
At last check it's been 21hrs since i unplugged my phone & it's still @ 65% with moderate use.Personally I haven't been getting results this good since i made the switch so this makes me happy.

Hey Vulgrim what radio are you using?
I will try out CM 6.1 TONIGHT just to get the battery life.
I do find that the main culprit in dire lifecycles is 3G which unfortunately is what I use the most (nomadic lifestyle and all...)

So what settings exactly are you using on the cpu tuner? Just wanted to know so I can replicate it.
My settings.
@quierotacobell...Under "Current" i have governor set to:conservative,Max:1094Ghz,Min:768Mhz.
"Profiles":
Performancendemand-Max:1097Ghz,Min:768Mhz
Good:conservative-Max:1094Ghz,Min:768Mhz
Normal:conservative-Max:1094Ghz,Min:768Mhz
Power save:conservative-Max:1094Ghz,Min:768Mhz(services set to 2g)
Screen off:conservative-Max:768Mhz,Min:768Mhz
Extreme Power save:conservative-Max:768Mhz,Min:768Mhz(services set to 2g)
Keep in mind i have wifi,blutooth, & sync disabled all across the board.Also i'm simply stating what worked for me it's no guarantee it's going to work for you.
Hmm how can you get better battery life with CPU Tuner because the lowest you can go to minimum is 768?
Will try that out Utorrent, thanks.

Thank You For Axura!

Just want to give thanks for this rom to whomever put it together. Master? Not sure I'm not to involved with the roms usually. But my Vibrant is an entirely different phone now. Seems to be using the hardware now to its potential. I can't get over how smooth the phone is. No more hitching or lag when you scroll around the screens. My programs all work better now. Stitcher Radio now loads up quicker. Doesn't reset or stop on its own. One little thing is that the orientation seems to be off. When I tilt the phone horizontally for example the image doesn't change over. Regardless, this is a small thing compared to the overall improvement of the device. I'm a newbie to flashing roms but now can't wait for the next one!

lol..thanks once again! I thought it was google syncing! Working fine now.
@azure100. Last night I went to plug in the phone for charging before going to bed. About 10pm. The phone read 71% battery. Kinda shook my head in disbelief. Especially since I get up at 5am! I didn't have my phone on a charger all day but I did have it USB'd to my laptop for a total of about 30mins moving some files and playing around. I'm sure it picked up some charge there? Still, it seemed like a lot of battery life left for that time of day. Usually I make it until about 8pm before the phone is fully out of juice. I'll keep a eye on it today. I won't hook it up to any charger or pc and report back.
Ok so I got three hours before it changed from 100 percent. Battery on this Rom is really good

You go tell that to the other 20 threads saying "nero is best thanks dev!"
Axura has the best battery I've ever had, but I tried other roms and loved the look of them with black notification bars and such... I'm on nero, but the battery just isn't the same

I wake up at 6 a.m. and battery will last me until around 11 p.m. That is the longest I have let it run without recharging. Normal use. Ill have about 25-30% bat level at that time. I think this is pretty awesome. What I mean by normal use is I am making a phone calls and just checking email. No connecting to wifi etc.. Obviously there will be more battery drain then.
Charging seems to take a while. Even from the wall it just feels to charge slow. But not snail pace or anything. The battery is def lasting longer than before I flashed it.
I've been going back and forth between Axura2.2.5.9 and NeroV3 lol. To me, these ROM are both awesome. It really comes down to customization preferences and how each specific ROM reacts to your individual Vibrant. For my Vibrant, the battery is a little bit better on NeroV3. GPS is somewhat comparable. As a matter of fact, I've been manually customizing my Vibrant by taking bits and pieces of what I like from the Axura ROM and incorporating onto my NeroV3 core.
BTW: Is it just me or others simply do not care?????? In Axura2.2.5.9, the audible tone is not working on the dial pad even when the option is enabled in settings.

Ok. Two days ago I put a newly charged battery in at 3pm. It didn't fully die until after 10pm last night! So over 31 hours on one charge. Granted, Ive been sick so the phone hasn't been used as much. Phone calls. Email but no games, gps or anything like that. WiFi, Bluetooth on. Still, even with light use, the most I was getting is 15 hours thats it. So this rom looks real good for battery
Also want to throw a quick thanks out. I have really started enjoying this phone more than struggling with it. I might even hang onto it for a bit.

3 days, ~6 hours on straight standby.. with a couple of texts and battery status checks.. recharged it when it hit 10%.... this was after clearing battery stats and trying to reconditioning the battery... longest ever... Axura 2.2.5.6
Love the Rom.but only getting like 7 hours of battery life on a full charge. Tried everything but still getting fast battery drain. Hardly any apps running or Widgets. And on low screen brightness. What's up with this.still thanks for the awesome Tom.

Have you tried Set CPU? With Axura and some custom underclocking profiles from set cpu along with managing my wifi/data via toggles on my homescreen, I am gettting really good battery life
I have been on Axura for over a week now and im consistently averaging 13/14 hours on a full battery charge with.moderate use. My current charge is in its 23 rd hour.
Im reluctant to flash any other rom coz I like this one so much but I still want to flash lol
