Please Help - Problems Again

Guys its me again.
Flashed Pre-Rooted DDJP6 and G3MOD 1.8 extreme kernel.
Charged for 2 hours, After that taken my phone out of charging suddenly battery started draining to 10% and phone switched off. i waited for a while and restarted phone battery was 80% and suddenly 10% again and phone switched off.
In the past i had been changing rom since last 4-5 days from Kyrillos to Indroid to XXPJF to DDJP6.
Kindly tell me what is the issue?? Many suggest to calibrate, when we calibrate we have to drain it in reality and recharge it to 100% but my phone if showing fake battery it drains instantly so how do we really drain it and re-charge??
I want to solve this problem asap. As my phone is almost unusable, i suspected SETCPU is causing this so i uninstalled it but still no use.
Please help i don't want to re-flash the rom and lose the data again

There is a high possibility that your battery is damaged since, as I understood, this problem persists in more than one roms.
sent from my CM7 nokia 3210

Switched it off for a 20-25 Minutes.
Switched on since last 2hours 3minutes and Mobile WIFI ROUTER AP in use since then.
still 22% Left. Dont understand , sometimes works very well and sometimes what a lag. I would let it drain and then charge fully.. Hope it works

first change the kernel to G3MOD v1.9 lite. be rooted. using root explorer delete batterystats.bin or install BatteryCallibration.apk charge upto 100% then let it drain. use battery monitor widget to check health and voltage of the battery. report it here. if health is good and voltage is >4150mV, u are good.

Actually its such an pain to again n again change the kernel i can't doo al data2sd and stuf again
btw i had cleared battery stats from the recovery so i don't have a stats.bin file when i tried batterycallibration it said the files is missing.
Sometimes battery works nicely and sometimes it lags usually at night what solution we have for this?

Battery was running fine at 100% on some tough work for an hour or so. Its rocking
So lets experiment , see the log below ->
SETCPU set to on demand max 1Ghz.
11:33 = Battery 100% , SETCPU setting on boot, wifi on , fb chat on , opera on.
11:41 - Battery at 74% FB CHAT off now installed operamini.. let me browse SETCPU still on
11:52 - Battery at 61% , Opera On , Setcpu modified to SAVE POWER.
11:54 - Battery still at 61% but phone is lagging more then it was before SETCPU. So i have uninstalled setcpu and kept my phone for charging. Lets see how much time it takes to fully charge..
I have reached the conclusion that SETCPU is the cause of problem

Even after SETCPU problem persists... drained it once and charged for about 1 hour , was showing BATTERY FULL... took it off charger switched on, was 100% kept in pocket in idle condition. 10-15 minutes passed by took it out and was down to 80 then to 50 in next 15-20 minutes without any work... What's gng on some1 help

Don't use extreme kernel .it damages ur battery. Try performance if u r looking for oc. And extreme is not a stable kernel.

Best kernel........????
Well there are 2 kernel which are just awesome ......G3mod 2.0 b3......and Fugumod kernel......
U can flash any one of them.....
I personally prefer Fugumod....but it's your choice coz both are fantastic....
Flash the new kernel and clear the battery stats....calliberate....and Setcpu doesn't harm your battery....

Even i am thinking about FUGUMOD.. does it include Recovery , app2sd ,data2sd and stuff.
If yes can you tell me which version exactly of FuGuMOD is the best for non lag stable superb experience ??
M using DDJP6 pre-rooted with superuser and i don't want to format and wipe stuff again.. lots of apps are dere and internal memory is still 800mb empty so will it b impacted if i flash a kernel?

Thanks sir,
But today i found that my back cover is not shutting properly so i took my battery out for a while its sort of swollen at few places and that's the reason why i can't put the cover on properly.. asked few of the friends they said its gonna blast anytime.
Can u tell me if it is true?

If the batttery gets swollen, it means it is near the end of its lifetime. If it is swollen so much that you cant put your back cover on, it is time to change your battery. i would recommend you not to use your phone with that battery and get a new one ASAP.

Just to clear things out, fugumod doesn't include CWM recovery nor does it include app2sd script. You have to do this manually unless you are using a custom ROM which has this preloaded such as kyrillos' ROM.

It is weird that it happened on this phone. I CAUTION you STRONGLY not to use that battery as it may damage your phone, leave aside blasting and all.
I would also recommend you to take more care of the phone as in, not left in charge for way too long, not overclocked constantly at very very high speeds continuously, and also to check where you keep you phone while charging (dont keep it on heat emitting stuffs like stabilizers, fan regulators etc) Change your battery of course.

Looks like the problem is You. It is neither the battery nor SetCPU. You skipped some basic stuffs, ignored the governor scaling of setCPU and now just pay some attention and if you do, you got yourself a solution!

Nope its the battery only I checked it a mobile expert and saw the battery a bit swollen so its definitely a battery issue. I set the right profiles and governor while using setcpu. Maybe overcharging must have damaged my battery.

[Q] Do you have battery problems with SwiftDroid RC5?

Hi! I wanted to know if you guys have a problem with the battery life on SwiftDroid RC5. I have a poor battery life and therefore big battery problems.

i had mine and bought a new batt no probs after that

Yes, I do. Since RC4 and RC5 I have very poor battery life. Before it was enough to charge once every other day, now I have to do it daily.
Actually after installing RC5 it was a disaster as battery didn't keep even 24 hours but after recalibration it's better. But even then during the course of the day while doing basically nothing (say, sending and receiving 3 or 4 sms) it goes down from 99% to 40%.
Edit: I should mention that I overclocked to 800MHz, but I used to do it before RC4.

Same here. I'm moving on Cyanogenmod 6.

yeah swiftdroid is a real battery drainer but
on swiftdroid on average my battery lasted 2 days..
but still i use cyan6!!
good in battery and performance!!

Same here. Experiencing battery problems on SwiftDroid aswell. Like mentioned above the battery drains even when doing nothing. Experience this on basically any mod built on SwifDroid ofcourse. Changed to EleganceSwift, waiting for mike to release AOSP with Bluetooth-free radio ;-)

There's something more to it.
Recently I was playing a bit with my phone, installed couple of applications and then suddenly I realized that battery doesn't drain as fast as it used to. One thing I noted is that for example Videos application doesn't reside in memory anymore. I'm not saying this one was the sole battery hog but I'm starting to suspect that those cases of battery going down very fast may be related to some misbehaving app or apps and not necessarily be Gingerbread's fault.
If that's the case, the solution would be, I imagine, to trim system preferences to have such apps killed fast not to let them stay active.

using ASIS atm, but when I was using RC5 I didn't notice much faster draining. Still, it depends how many apps are running on your device and did you overclock it? I used to have min 250MHz, max 600MHz and it was pretty fine with texting, multiple apps running and music. Now with min 825MHz/max 825MHz it's draining faster ofc

Well,I remember a day when i update to SwiftDroid RC5, the batter drains and there isnt any app running in background after that i changed to a another rom.
btw fdespotovski, Multiverse is my favorite rom, in fact, i wrote on the offcial blog but i have problems with the RC3, statusbar sound widget doesnt work properly for now im on RC2

I'm not using ASIS, still at RC5, and what I reported is that both RC5 and RC4 drain battery much faster than earlier versions. Assuming ASIS is just cosmetic change to RC5 it doesn't surprise me you didn't notice any difference. And again, I do overclock to 800MHz and I do it since M5 if memory serves me well. I know principles of overclocking and I know, and accept, drawbacks that come with it. But when at the same clock RC3 can live two days or more while sometimes RC5 barely manages only one then I suspect something is not right.
I tried to check which applications are responsible for battery drain but system report is not helping when telling that 98% took Android system, 2% cell standby and 2% phone idle.

Sorry for necroposting but I didn't want to litter forum with new thread and the problem itself hasn't go away.
I'm still using SwiftDroid v2.0 RC5 and until recently I still had problem of battery barely keeping one day: whole night on the charger and after moderate to no use during the day on the evening it was almost drained.
Recently I installed one more application (rather unrelated, I'd need really solid proof that CPU Spy directly improves energy usage) and after that the battery easily keeps for two days. Which brings back the theory I have that the short battery life is not necessarily caused by Android itself but by some applications staying in memory and not sleeping properly. If so, installing extra app may help just for this reason that it having higher priority will swap out those misbehaving ones.
Thus I propose little hunt, if anyone's interested. I'd like to stay focused on v2.0 RC5 (maybe RC4/ASIS if you believe the difference is not too big). I need reported both GOOD and BAD battery life. In either case please write down all apps currently in memory (you can skip those you have installed, I'm mostly interested in what comes from ROM). And don't forget to mention which actual version do you use and whether it's good or bad case.
Given some meaningful data I hope to isolate which apps cause excessive battery drainage. I'm not sure what to do with that information next but I think it would be good start anyway.
To make said start, here's what I have:
SwiftDroid 2.0 RC5 / GOOD battery
- DSP Manager
- Usage Timelines Free
- Doit.im
- K-9 Mail
- Auto Memory Manager
- Superuser
- Settings
- TM World Clock
- Go launcher EX (doesn't report itself as staying in memory but I suppose it has to be running somewhere)

custom roms...with gingerbread will definately have faster battery usage!! u cant help it
---------- Post added at 10:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:31 PM ----------
use stock roms.... if u want good battery life!

Guys help please, I have a battery/charging problem after installing RC5, this is my first ever custom ROM, it worked great yesterday, but after charging it over night I'm stuck at 99% it won't go up nor down, the phone won't charge and it won't even connect to PC via USB I tried turning it off completely and then plugged in the charger but it just booted up (is it supposed to do that this is my first android?) and that was it. Everything else works fine, wifi etc.... Is there a way to fix this ? I can't transfer a new custom rom to the sd when it won't connect to the PC

the battery stuck at 99 % is a often coming bug and i don't know any solutions mine goes to 97 % ...
ehen phone is shut down and you plug the charger its normal that its booting(because of fastboot)
connection to pc should work, try another port re-install the drivers

thanks ...............

I also have a battery problem... i have installed this ROM 3 days ago, and now i can't charge my battery over 45-55%. Phone was charging all night long, and batter lasted for a day and a half, but its annoying... btw, what now, do I delete battstats now at 55%, when i can not charge phone to 100%?

[Q] battery life

I`ve just rooted my defy and am thinking of installing a custom rom.
Can anyone tell me whether I would get better or worse battery life than with stock (I realize that not all custom roms are the same but on average are they better or worse for battery ?)
Thanks
Jeff

well if you read around everyone suggests that this rom is better then the other, but well to each his own.
what you could do is figure out which rom you like and install it.
the battery backup on froyo vs any custom i have tried, froyo wins hands down.
there are many apps in the market which will help you get an increased battery life and figure out where exactly your having issues or which app is giving you that head ache, eg: juice defender
so you will, inevitably get a pretty decent battery backup!
hope this helps!

Thanks for that.
Do you mean froyo stock has good battery life or one of the froyo custom roms?
Jeff

WIUI has an excellent battery-life!

I have battery problem on every custom or stock ROM... tjis is what i get with no use of phone.. i tried to calibrate battery but again there was no improvement...

Your signature says that you have OC'd to 1.2ghz. This could be the problem.

CM7.1 stable, with moderate use, wifi always on, some 3g: battery lasts ~4days

i believe stock froyo has the best battery life. with custom roms, my vote goes to miui. but i'm on cm7 for its performance, and still with good enough battery life.

Early CM7 gave me around 4 days, currently on the latest nightly 111123 which is about 2 days, which is still fine for me, especially given the performance boost it gives the phone.

I didn't refreshed my signature, its on 1000mHz.. But with stock rom (800mhz) i get the same poor battery :S

dh.harald I am zapped... 4 days
Ever since I got my defy in Aug11, I have been struggling with 1 day battery life.
Even had a battery replacement a month back, yet no advantage.
Finally had root my device to CM7 RC1.5, did (darky's) battery calibration few times and now I get close to 36 hours with below normal voice, no data (20min max), no wifi (1 hr max), no gps, auto brightness, no bluetooth, 15 sec screen timeout, and no other usage.
Do you feel I should again try get my device serviced?

I installed MS2Ginger Lite 2.0 (based on chinese) and i had 0.5% battery consumption during off-peak hours just like the other chinese roms. I did not tested it long enough but it seems as good as the other chinese roms

I know it is a silly question but, here it is: charging over USB reduces the battery life shelf?
Edit1: I mean, keep about 4-6 hours per day charging over USB reduces the battery life shelf?

MS2Ginger 2.0 had better battery life then 2.1...Im using 2.1 now and I have only 32h of battery with the same usage of phone like on 2.0 where I had >60h of battery life.
Ill do one more time recalibration of battery and check it but for now, I think that new Bootmenu is the one thing that fcked up battery life (since clk3 and clk4 are equal and both are 1000, but in previous bootmenu u could put clk3=800 and clk4=1000).
Will track battery life more.
I like 2.1 so fckin much so I'd like to have 60h of battery life again.

MS2ginger2.1=MS2ginger2+patches. it shouldn't consume more power. I think that setting clk2 to 600MHz is a bad practice. Try clk2=800MHz instead.

I'm also using 2.1 and see only 3 Vsel setting in the bootmenu. Just enable all modules, save and reboot. Even though bootmenu will still only show 3 Vsel settings, use SetVsel app and you can change clk3 and clk4. My clk3 is back to 800MHz like before. Confirmed with CPUspy that 800MHz is used.

Ok...After recalibration of battery with Battery Calibrator from Market I managed to have 66h of battery time with default CPU settings in CWM.

Im not in the mood for changing settings in CWM now, but Id really like to try smartass governor in a future. Maybe that would give me more than 72h of battery.
Or maybe V6supercharger script. Don't know.

Battery drain during usage

Hi All,
I've been playing with my Galaxy Note for a few days now (got it last Friday) and everything is going good.
However, after upgrading to RocketRom v22 I noticed my battery drops relatively fast. For example I used the phone for about 15-20 minutes on the way into work this morning and I'm already down to 92% battery.
Are there any tweaks I can do?
Right now batter usage shows the following:
Display 48% (I have it set on auto)
Internet 15%
Cell standby 14%
Idle 9%
OS 7%
System 4%

Try badass battery monitor

The only app who have found my bad apps
Sent from my VIC-20 / VC-20

Also keep in mind most custom roms come with their own kernel and some kernel's etc just tend to work better for some..
The franco kernel gives me great performace but it tends to drain my battery more then abyss kernel..
Right now Im on abyss kernel 4.1 and battery is pretty good..I'm at like 12% battery with close to 4 hours on screen time...I can definitely deal with that..
Also when you change kernels you need to give them time to set in so wait a couple days and see how things are.

with rocket v22 you can change the brightness settings with jkay mod. try the dark setting and keep the auto brightness setting on. the huge note display causes always the biggest battery drain.
and as already mentioned, try different kernels, always with clearing cache/dalvik/battery stats.

download betterbatterystats app in market and check for background apps that are running on your phone..
check for wakelocks , and it's sometimes good to use a different kernel to try to improve battery performance as well..
used Franco's latest kernel before.. it not only heated up my phone.. but it also speed up the battery drain process.
had to reflash back to another kernel - Abyss Note or SpeedMod to get the stability back.

- try not to judge the kernel performance without 2 full battery charging n discharging cycles.
- prior to flashing any kernel use the kernel cleaning script like jbroid's to remove the trace of the old kernel.
- 2 or 3 reboots would be good before regular usage.
- use betterbattery stats for knowing the wakelocks, cpu spy to know the deep sleep mode, battery monitor widget to know the temperature n drain stats.
- once u have reached a stable state of performance and battery life pls stick to it! This is the most difficult part!

Why open a new thread for a ROM specific topic? You downloaded the Rocket ROM v22 and you have a question concerning this ROM. Then pls ask there - I am sure you'll get (more) help.
But, being polite I'll ask what you did in those 15—20minutes? Listening to Internet Radio, web browsing and playing a game or ... if you could specify what you did, it's easier to get help.
Furthermore you could download CPUSpy, to see whether the phone gets into deep sleep (or not).
If not, there are some apps that'll help you out (better battery stats or badass battery, the ones mentioned in the posts above). And then, it'll be user related and neither ROM nor kernel related.
Next thing (already mentioned as well) is how often did you charge your phone? Sometimes ROMs, kernel and the battery need some time to work well together...
And auto-brightness is sometime a battery drainer as well...

Try using a stock rom, with custom kernel. You'll have less problems than the "custom" rom your using.

[Q] How to tweak rom/kernel for best batery life

What sort of battery drain do you currently get on standby? Can you tell me the reading in ma from CurrentWidget? If it's 3-5 ma with mobile network/wifi/bluetooth etc on and 2ma in airplane mode then you're fine,but if it's higher it can definitely be improved.

If you don't plan to use mobile internet connection then disable 3G and turn 2G mode only. Turn off as many widgets as you only can, disable Location Service and auto sync. Install apps on phone memory only.
Also Dorimanx kernel is a hell of battery drainer, use another one like stable Tytungs etc.
Use dynamic/powersave CPU governors or use CPU speed profile apps like SetCPU and make several profiles for it.
This is only a few of tips we can give here.

im getting between 10 to 15 ma with 2g on and sync all the rest is off, and im using smartassv2 governator i dont know if this can be improved .. and i really like dorimanx kernel becouse it feels faster then tytung and it gets less hotter becouse right now is really hot these days and i nearly cant use the phone with tytung kernel becouse it gets crazy hot :O

Well the apps I use to reduce my battery drain are JuiceDefender and SetCPU. Set the profiles to be 245-576 Mhz when screen is off (smartassv2) and whatever else you like when screen is on. I never had any overheating problem with Tytung's kernel though. It was the most stable and just as fast as Dorimanx's kernel IMO. Still, using ICS now so I can't really judge about the newest versions of each of them.

Also Dorimanx kernel is a hell of battery drainer, use another one like stable Tytungs etc.
Use dynamic/powersave CPU governors or use CPU speed profile apps like SetCPU and make several profiles for it.
This is only a few of tips we can give here.

Well the apps I use to reduce my battery drain are JuiceDefender and SetCPU. Set the profiles to be 245-576 Mhz when screen is off (smartassv2) and whatever else you like when screen is on. I never had any overheating problem with Tytung's kernel though. It was the most stable and just as fast as Dorimanx's kernel IMO. Still, using ICS now so I can't really judge about the newest versions of each of them.

I think his kernel is the same in battery drain over any of them. Ive tried them all. If anything, seader_r9 was the best and it was only a small improvement. My battery life is pretty short, but im a HEAVY user. Constant web browsing, constant text messaging contant GPS. And it lasts for the majority of the day. Now i have an .sh script which helps tweak the smartassV2 settings. I get about 110-200ma drain when doing simple web browsing or replying to a text.
One must also keep in mind that the ROM has a major part in battery drain as well. I heard from many users on here that MIUI has the best battery life. All in all i think any kernel you choose will have reletively (i spelled that wrong -.- its still early ) the same battery drain. It really comes down to the amount of use your phone has. But as stated before, turning off data greatly saves the battery as does turning down the screen brightness, fyi, automatic brightness sucks battery life too. Plus android does a horrible job polling the light sensor -.- it shouldnt take an average of 3 seconds to get the changed light value..
Theres not much 'tweaking' you can do to give you like an hour extra of battery life. Our batteries are only 1350mah batteries and thats really small for such a huge screen. My Touch Pro 2 has a 1500 and a much smaller screen. There are a lot of good aftermarket batteries on ebay that you could get which would extend your running time.

thanks guys, im gonna give a shot to tytung kernel, but im also gonna take a look to the aftermarket baterys

Typhoon rom support undervolt so if your phone is gettin' hot I suggest you to tweak the voltages as explained to original thread first page, it makes a big difference compared to stock.

Good advice here. There's a lot you can do (as already advised) but always some performance tradeoffs. The standard HD2 battery is only 1230 mA... not 1350. Smartassv2 in DM's kernels is excellent for performance and settles down nicely in standby - but it will pull-on your battery when used. There's no substitute for keeping a few extra charged batteries around (when you need them), along with AC & DC chargers + cable, in a small carrying case.

You don't need to use dorimanx's latest kernels, his stable kernels in fact do a better job at not overheating and have only 2ma drain on standby. I know 5.9, 6.3, 6.4d, and 6.9A (ics hwa) give a great battery life.

Wow, in standby im on average around 7-3mA with the occational spikes when receiving texts or messages over wifi. And when on data its about the same, just not as often in the 3ma range.

Which apps are running in the background? People constantly say that task killers make no difference yet whenever I've opened something and haven't killed it I get a higher battery drain than normal.
Also, use JuiceDefender and SetCPU to lower the drain.
