Hey guys i want to switch to stock rom ..! so just want to ask which stock rom will give me good battery life or any stock rom+ custom kernel combination will give me a good battery life ..
Thnx
I'm getting great results on OMKJ4. Much better than anything else I've used on the S2. If I push my luck I can get 2 days plus the night between (not 2 full days though but I suspect the 2000mah battery would let me if I could actually lay my hands on one).
(There are a lot of issues though in flashing OM builds on anything but an SC-02C)

thank you too .!! also dont u use any custom kernels for better battery results ?
Well best battery life depends on how you are using the phone. Display On time should be the figure to find out which one is performing best.
I am on KI8 atm, Display On time is very good, around 5.5 h, but it drains battery a lot compare to old KF3, overnight drain was 2/3% on KF3, but now it is 10+%! Now I'll use it for another day and see if it drains the same again then I'll be moving to KI3, which I previously used and loved.
Maybe only me but I've had good luck with the ROMs which end up with 3

20 hours isn't bad. Bear in mind this is a smart phone with big screen & cloud (almost continuos internet connection). Wifi is about 30-50 min, 5-12 sms, 30-40 min of calls (via BT headset), 4 emails (updates with push or fetch in 30 min interval), RSS,weather (every 3 hours). Market, Samsung apps browsing - 40-50 min. GTalk 24/7 ,eBay - 15-20 min.Twitter every 30 min, FB-every 4 hours (not a big fan of it ). Games up to 2 hours. Few widgets (weather, email,clock,calendar). I am on Vodafone now, and almost always on H+, so that also affects battery life. Some say that on 2G network you get better battery life, but my experience is opposite.
And ROM yes, full stock ( I mean no custom kernels etc).
Ki8...54 hours...medium user.

Is your phone new? My phone was prety bad first week, then, after 7-8 charges is now much much better and stable. Also I was on 2.3.3 before and battery drained fast... Very fast (6-8 hours max)

Go for it, but make sure you have correct CSC as well, or KIES wont "talk" with your phone. After flashing 2.3.5 do factory reset as well

Not using anything isnt the exact description For a smartphone.
I finally topped the 2 Day mark with my 2.3.3 juwe rom. I had problems before to reach at least the 24 hours, sometimes i had to refuel during the Day,caused by the massive drauf bug which keeps android awake. First i deinstalled the latest maps update and undescribed from latitude.i also did Not touch any gameloft game. Wifi was on Most of the time when awake. See the battery historie below

Hey i new to this, i have a UK I9000, that i recently updated to JVO on kies. I previously had my phone replaced by samsung due to battery issues. but my new one seems to be the same. I can just about get 14 hours or so of use out of it. I have brightness set to outo, auto sync on, have an gmail and an exchange email, also am on 2g/3g auto. i am unsure if i should flash to custom? i keep reading that people are getting 2days out of their battery. i would say that not a heavy user!! could do with some advide! thanks
If I am always in a wifi area I probs get about 4 or 5 days. If though 3G is on i've known it to go from 100% to phyically off within a matter of hours even when not actually using the phone.
Sorry but i am amazed from these screenshot.
I am difficulty arriving to the night.
My phone is having the standard battery, with two google accounts setted on sync and i really use it FEW... 3 hours of display? A dream.
I am on 2.2 because it is branded and i really wonder how u can achieve 2 days. 5 days with moderate use i would shot my head to achieve it.
Someone can give me a good advice?
Also, how are u taking the battery history?
Considering display and mobile data are the biggest battery drainers, we more detailed information than just time on. Give me display usage.

Im newbie in android....sorry
Villain 1.4 good battery life .
Multiple flashing of roms degrades battery life unless you reset battery stats and give the battery time to readjust + 80 %of battery drain is user apps /rogue aps constantly trying to connect /wake phone .

I reset the bat every time that i do a flash when reach 100 %

WOW.....your device is so hard work, but I would like to know you whether open the auto-sync?! you can download the app for Juicedefender or Green Power to control the data/ Wifi, it can save power.
I use Lite'ning V1.5 and use Juicedefender for my Galaxy S II, it can work for 2 days for one charge
stock KF3 works great for me. You shouldn't need a special ROM to get decent battery time.
What is the display on time when the battery is getting close to empty? That tells a lot how you use the phone.
In the past i got a lot of Screen 65 %
Now android ios is taking 45 %....

Btw what is your best rom regarding power consuption ?
Must admit the battery on this SGS2 is a bit of a pain.
It takes all day to charge from 20% to FULL then about half a day to drain back to about 20%...
my Iphone 4 I have just sold, would charge up to full in a couple of hours and last all day.

i will help save you some headache, the SGS2 will never get quite as good battery life as the iphone 4 does. you may be able to improve it, but it will never match the IP4 unfortunately. it sucks i know.

Flash another FW or maybe it works after Calibrating your Battery.

There is also 3500 mAh battery selling try to ubtain it, i have one and what should i can tell you it's great ( 4 days with huge working system)
To be honest i think it's the firmware problem...last time after i updated to stock 2.3.3 i have the same problem as you..
I have to charge the battery about 2 to 3 times a day when i don't even play games and the use of wifi was minimum (less than 30 minutes)...
Try flashing another stock firmware (my suggestion is 2.3.5 or 2.3.6), it works for me, the battery use was back to normal after that (Custom ROMs are even better )

I once hat the same problem after a Kies-update that was done with less than 100% battery. Wiping battstats is a solution to this.
The reason why your phone drains that much is another thing. I guess there is something active, unnecessary syncing or sth. Check what apps are permitted to run processes in the background, search for updates or news or whatever. Probably that is all you need to do.
battery live are depending by the rom , more exactly by the optimization of the firmware or rom, by how these use the procesor and ram , and of corse by how you use the phone , exemple I use now ICS RC3.1 , and with normal use (2 hour of screen on , 1 hour i speak at phone , and some web browsing) my battery discharged in 2 days and 16 hours

On CM9 Build 15 I don't have this problem.
i have flashed jw1 4 days and with push email 35 minutes talk data always on to automatic ,some sms and a small use 1 day hardly...
Hi everyone, I just wanted to say that my battery was 5 days and 21 hours has endured, with Sam's SURFACE JVU v9.01 ROM! I called at that time about 1h, 50 SMS sent, angry birds played 1h, 30min data connection, and 30min with wifi connected. I find this simply amazing and really did not know that this was possible. Apparently so, because Sam's ROM course! So thank you Sam!
Well, on standby with not apps running and wifi off, my phone drains about 20% a day at most if I don't use it. 1 hour of calling, 1hour of angry birds and some surfing would usually also drain about 30%. So in general, with such minimal use, the battery would last about 3-4 days anyway.
You convince me to test this ROM!

It's true. Roms which drain battery are 2.3.3-based roms, as well as poorly made custom roms. Most other roms, especially the froyo 2.2.1 ones, have very good battery life. I'm not saying that the rom you're using isn't good, but I'd simply like to point out that battery life with your amount of usage is gonna be long with most roms anyway.
dont want to troll here, but if standby usages are higher than screen that means you havent used it that much, so it's not due to the rom but due to almost no usage. 3-4 hours of screen turned on a week is almost no use of this phone.
(screen usage uses most battery and it lasts for about 4 hours of screen, it doesnt matter if it is used in a few hours or you dont use your phone and it cumulates 4 hours of screen use during a week)

I also tend to gree with you, after all this battery life on a samsung base is normal
Never managed to get more than 2 days out of my phone so far on any rom but I use it alot and I am pleased with it's battery life
You may all tell what you want, but have flashed many rom's, and i use my phone most of the time like i wroted in first post. And never i had a batterylife like this! Si, for me its rom dependent.

Incredible! Grote, dank u wel. I will try this ROM
Nothing special at all, u did not use data, that way it works like a Nokia dumbphone. Also u did not turn on screen very often, if u try this with a froyo rom and speedmod kernel you would even get more out of one charge.

There is one limitation, however .... I did not turned it on in this period
Seriously ...RLY :-/

Lol... Buddy u vent used the phone like what an avg user over here does...
2.3.6 jw1 rom with data for email push all the day active the battery holds 24hours at most ...depends the other usage
Battery 5 days... ummm you sure you did not leave phone in charging mode.. Basically I can get more too if i don't use as much as you... lol
I'm pretty sure there is nothing revolutionary in this thread - my SGS could last 7 days maybe more even. Fresh cheap 1900mah battery - no stupid widgets or programs in background, no gps, no wifi, 3G ON.

Not weird. When unused, battery lasts for a long time even on stock roms - I'm on stock JVT. With the help of a properly configured juice defender or tasker, you can easily get draining paces this low even by using the phone a bit more. Nonetheless I'm more than confident that Sam's JVU provides even more time to battery than stock roms.
to be honest, I'm hardly far from a power source that long though.
Hey people, i am a starter in this forum(posting i mean) i ve tried like 30 roms in an year in my sgs2(i9100) and currently on the ressurction v2. Just an information, since i am a noob i dunno if this has alrdy been posted. I did somethin somewhere i read on the net which boosted my battery life to like twice the previous amount..
Here are the approximate battery hours
without net, camera usage, music and games - 25 hours 17 mins(1%)--> Previously it was barely 13 hours
with al the above and 2g on(working apps like gmail fb whatsapp viber etc) i got like 7 hours with 80% remainin ---> previously 10 hrs an t was 0%
With 3g its close to6 hours n 77 % remaining.. previously t was 6 hrs..
Like i said i duno hw much is the actual bttery life o GS2. HEre s what i did(for those who think i am not a "bloatware" )
1. Take a backup of the image audio and the other essential files u need frm ur SD card
2. Go to recovery and wipe data factry data cache and dalvik...
3. Clear the battery data (or smthn like that)
4. Go to settings and clear the SD card(format sd card)
5. nw all the useless app files (Badly written apps) whch consume **** load of the power thru "android OS" re removed.
7. Jus copy bak the essential files and trn off the fone n let t charge to 100% (3 sad hours :|)
8. I think thats bout t.. I got a proper response.....
Mods if this s a repost or smthn please remove it sorry in advance...
Oh and try not to use the chargin process on and off. Charge t fully once n don charge if its not below the critical 5%... sm improvement in battery life
cheers to the noobs n ty XDA..
Interesting will definitely try this out. My battery life is pretty bad.
7 days and still going..
normally my phone lasts about 2 days with few phone calls, 3G and limited WiFi usage.. last wednesday, I charged it over night and today, the phone still has 25% baterry life. I don't know why it happened, but now it's 7th day of using my SGS2 without charging.
I go like 30hours on battery (got the 2000mah extended) with medium to heavy usage all day long.
3G and sync always on
WiFi probably 5-7 hours a day
Auto-brightness with LUX
A lot of whatsapp, twitter, facebook, instagram, etc

Any proof? Like screenshots..?? My NOKIA 1500 doesnt give more than 4 days.. Ur phone is a BOON!!
I get 1 week!!
when I only turn it on to check the time :meh:
seriously...
wifi on 5 - 7 hours!? Using wifi saves battery i.e. doesn't drain it
Before my ph would run dead flat? - probably 36 - 48 hours depending on whether it's under heavy or moderate usage.
Think I may invest in 2000mAH battery to get 2 days out of ph...
I use my ph for work - so I charge it every night if it's below 50%...
Sounds interesting and logical. There are some apps that create large folders(iFunny=over 1GB last time I cleared)(I also had some random app making app backups without me knowing ).
I'm now flashing Hydra rom so I could try this out right now...
My record is about 3 days and 3-4 hrs but with minimal usage. With my normal usage I typicaly get about 2 days on ICS and a day - day and a half on GB.
My normal usage is some WiFi/H+ browsing or file transfer, a few pictures, music, a few calls and SMS and a coupe of apps, about 10 or so emails per day, lots of time and weather checks and etc. Generally I'm quite happy with the battery life since the move to ICS (stock, non-rooted).
I noticed this too, I backed up my phone and moved my files to micro sd, cleaned the internal storage and backed up apps,files you don't need to pc
you do get performance gains, my media scanner is shorter and its less awake if so,
i noticed as ics isnt 100% backwards compatible so androidos and media scanner was not far from display usage in battery information
OR you can just install Greenify without loosing any apps. Its on PlayStore, though it needs root. Perfect I'd say. Check it out.

Yeah, I know, but somebody browsing through it can still come up and read and see for themselves. Right?

Use BetterBatteryStats. Very light, almost negligible battery use by itself, still monitors perfectly. This is what most pro developers use.

Use BetterBatteryStats. highly recommended.
hi. I am o supernexus build 5 wth siah kernel. I got round 7 hiurs if heavy usage on gs2. I've done facebook, viber, internet using stock browser and downloading around 200mb zip file. what can you say about this battery life. its my first time to use gs2 and I am using 2000mah. the battery life seems pretty bad in my opinion. I will attach screenshot of my hardware info, battery use and screen time. hoping for any opinions out there

I get a screen time of around 6-6.5 (full time on screen) hours. with EDGE on. so id say this is not the worst. your phone has been awake for like 4 hours. And you have active apps such as fb viber n whatsapp. And downloads as well. First usage can be inaccurate just try two to three full cycle charges and then get back im sure it will improve

That is actually my 7th day on that rom. Right now Im reverting to stock rom with the latest 4.1.2 baseband. The previous one uses an ICS baseband with jb rom. I dont know if that affects battery

Not getting the same problem I guess my battery life is okay now. I was used to ics xperia neo which has a good battery life so maybe this is the reason im complaining for battery
