Best Stock rom for battery life

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

With the stock battery?
And please define heavy usage (time on wifi/mobile data, screen on).
I'm starting to get worrie about my phone, he barely hits 20 hours with what i consider average usage.

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.

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

LG GT540 battery drain very fast

I have LG GT540 with android 2.3.4 cyanogen and the battery is just getting drain to fast ( its new battery) .when i go to battery use i saids that android system use 99-100% of battery waht its not normal ( my friend has about 7-8% use) and she last for 1-1.5 hours with normal work ,in idle about 4 hours till battery drops dead. Phone is getting to hot , i tryed to put others 2.3.7 and its same again what sholud i do.
solution i tryed: wipe battery stats -didnt help
going from 2.3.4 to 2.3.7 -didn help
PM me to see pic cuz i am new here so i cant post outside links at the moment.

Did you wipe data when updating to 2.3.7? If not, try it (maybe also without restoring stuff from backup, if wiping+restore does not help)

yes i always wipe data/cache/dalvik cache so tahts not issue,can i format SD card is she a problem maybe?

yeah same for me i am also using a rather new battery

The battery level stays on some percentages longer than others.

First of all swiftdroids battery is only supposed to last 1 day.. so use a differnet rom. Secondly check that ur CPU is on ondemand not performance .. cause sometimes u get the rom like that.

what worked for me
Hi
I wanted to thank for Zoe Rom on its thread, but i cant write on developer's threads yet (altough i clicked thanks button there).
Im glad i finally got rid of my memory hogging default rom and now i have a properly working phone again!
Also i wanted to reply there (to some people also complaining about battery endurance on GT540 on Zoe Rom) how i fixed my battery main problem.
Pic of current battery drain:
http://postimage.org/image/d8o8uusd7/
As you can see i am aproximatelly at 50% battery after 1day and 11h of not charging.
I had 2 problems:
1- Battery lasted aproximatelly 5 hours on standby (and i mean i wouldnt even touch the phone and the battery was gonne after that time)
2- During intense battery drain usage, the battery was reporting to have less energy than what it actually has.
1st problem solved by simply turning off the wireless after im done with using it. No idea how could that be taking away so much energy, but it was. Somewhere during the period i was using my default rom i got used to have wireless always on, and my battery on the later times was going away faster than normal (i also like to listen to music on the phone). At the time i didnt correlate the 2 things, and i just put in my head that it probably was the battery dieing on me. It wasnt! The wireless (i suppose because of the Sync function also being on) has been draining my battery like mad between charges.
2nd problem persists. As you can see on the pic, those 2 spikes down correspond 2 diferent aproximatelly 1 GB file wireless transfers with Wifi File Browser app. This transfers (PC->Phone) make the phone CPU have to unzip the two 1GB files to the SD, so they are very CPU and SD card read/write intensive (i can force this battery drops with other instense battery use like playing a 3D game for example). The thing is if during that temporarly drop on the battery level measurement, the level hits 5%, the phone will shutdown. But to be honest, this problem is minor comparing to the 1st one.
There is one other minor problem with my battery, wich is the reading being inconsistent (drops 10%, then gains 15% then drops 5% again etc), but is this a problem at all?
I read a post of a guy that had made extensive testing to his battery cycles, providing loads of graph of battery levels (cant find link) . I didnt read through all of it, but i remember the guy saying something in the end like "Dont be too paranoid with your battery levels, as they arent accurate. Instead use your phone normally and you will gain an idea of how long will it last with certain types of usage"
By the way, he also said for people to just charge their battery whenever they could/wanted as it has no negative impact on battery life. I also read a bit of a paper on lithium-ion batteries stating the same, so no more forcing full-discharges for me!
One last thing! Deleting the batterystats file is as simple as disconnecting your phone from the charger.Why? because that file serves solely the purpose of suplying the UI with info of the battery drain usage on the current battery cycle.
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/google-engineer-debunks-myth-wiping-battery-stats-does-not-improve-battery-life/
And you can confirm this if you unplug your phone while looking at yout battery stats.
I hope this helps
PS: pls notice that it could have been not the wireless itself that causes the battery drain, but some service using the wireless. Finding this would require more extensive testing.

Some people says that this does not work, but it worked for me. This procedure extended m battery life from 5h to 2 days..

Update
Hello again
I just wanted to give an update on the situation since i noticed this post is linked from the Zoe Rom thread.
Two days ago i bought a new battery, an unbranded one (cost me 15€ here in Portugal). The shop had a legit LG battery for 37.50€ but i tought it wasnt worth the money. This battery has the same specs as the original, except it is 1300mAh compared to the 1500mAh of the original.
I dont have any battery related problem any more. Yesterday i woke up (100% battery), unplugged the phone, let the wireless on all morning, listened to 2-3 hours worth of tunes, browsed the web a bit, tested some messaging apps etc. Today i woke up, didnt charge during the night, and im sitting on 45% battery. Wish i had gotten a new battery sooner lol
With my old battery the phone wouldnt shutdown. It would always automatically restart. I had no ideia a malfunctioning battery could cause this.

I've have had similar problems with the battery on my GT540 with all cyanogenmods - 2.3.7, 4.0.4, 4.1.2. There were no such problems with original 2.1 I think it is the price for the newer versions, I can live with that, I don't have to buy new phone

Same here...battery draining very fast....tried near about 10-15 roms...bt almost same rslt

Hi

horrific battery life...help?!

Hi All
Once again thanks for watching my video and getting me tickets to MWC...but alas i have another issue. My Note has horrific battery life....practically about 8 hours.
I downloaded better battery stats and there are no major wakelocks going on...(just juice defender at 3.4% which i uninstalled anyway) ....any other ideas?
Any help would be appreciated, another Mobiler suggested i put a custom rom on...I'm just terrified of 'bricking' my phone lol

This is perfectly average battery life for stock rom with moderate to heavy usage but if on light usage you might have some issues. Here is my battery like with heavy use.
Don't pay attention to people claiming Days of battery life they are simply not using the phone.

Maybe you could post up your betterybatterystats results?

I was having the same problem. I have a lot of apps on my phone, and it was just draining while sleeping as far as I could see. My main issue was all the unwanted apps like the social and media hub popping up whenever they felt like chomping on my battery.
I finally gave in and rooted, and installed droidwall to prevent anything getting network access I do not allow, android assistant for its start up manager, and autorun to delete all 'event listeners' that cause apps to pop up when they like (and there are hundreds of these in the stock apps, I assure you).
I now have 50% more battery life, and it seems to lose a lot less while sleeping.
I installed the CPU speed set thingy (sorry, I forget the name) but I had the problem a few others seem to have because it drained the battery faster than ever while sleeping. I will try again after a few days. I screenshot the battery graph in full screen, showing the WiFi, wake & screen, every day so that I can get a good feel for historical usage and battery life.
I have an el cheapo battery (had two but lost one) for emergencies. I am buying a Samsung one instead (for a 'real' 2500 mAh), and expect to keep it on me at all times. That should take me through a day of pretty heavy usage. I also have some dangly 'add-on' chargers, but frankly a spare battery is neater, smaller and easier.
I have also bout a tablet (10.2" with 16GB) for $200. I fully expect to buy another - one for work and one for home. These will reduce my usage of the G-Note and leave it for actual use as a phone. The main problem is that I use it so damned much! I have my phone, contacts, all my To Do lists, email, audible books, textual books, surfing, games, etc all on one device. I also use it to type notes at meetings or the like using my folding BT keyboard. It does it all really well, but does not have the battery to cope!
I know there are fat batteries out there, but I do not want to spoil the beauty of my svelte Note by giving it a hunch-back!
---------- Post added at 10:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 PM ----------
I also use Llama to control things like BT, WiFi and network data access when away from home or office. It does help, and means I don't have to remember to toggle. I tried Juice Defender as well, but its idea of turning on the WiFi at intervals saved my battery but seemed to make my email (IMAP) never download. I need to know when emails come in so that did not work for me. I may try it again at some point and try to make it work better for me.

Uninstall Juice Defender. I found my phone battery lasted twice longer after I removed it.

I use my phone for note taking all day and into the evening! Screen and internet used for over 12 hours, constant use! (Screen on lowest setting)
After battery "settled" I get around 10 hours then pop in a second battery!
Took about 15 charging cycles though to get the 10 hours!
Anyway just saying it may take time! And a second battery is always safest
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA App

that's... actually pretty normal battery usage if you're using your phone a lot.
my note is operating pretty much 18hours a day. A full charge is all i need, and by the end of the day, i get the critical battery notification.
if your note lasted more than a day, that's great. But with the amount of workload i am expending using my note, i wouldn't be surprised if continued usage of the phone would only last 7 to 8 hours tops. or much less.
and besides, the note can last for more than 2 days, if you didn't use it at all.

thanks for all the suggestions...i'm going to give rooting it a go this evening. Will let you know how that goes.

Yeap, that seems like average battery life. If you notice (others) that his screen on time was pretty solid most of the time. That means of the nearly 6 hours on, I'd say about 4.x hours the screen was on. So that's good

I have managed to improve my Galaxy note battery life a LOT by doing the following:
- Disable Wi-Fi when not using it.
- Settings > Accounts and Sync > UN-TICK "Auto-sync".
With auto-sync disabled you have to manually open the relevent app to get the data, but for me, thats what I prefer, and it saves loads of battery life.
Used to be 8 hours or less with the above 2 enabled.
now 16 hours+ with the above 2 disabled !

Installed free version of Juice Defender 3 days ago, didn't do anything just keeping it on balanced mod and from now on I have extended normal battery life (phone, e-mails, sms, occasional internet through 3G) from 1 day to 2 days. What can I say ...
It works. When you switch into wifi, gaming or intensive document editing then nothing is going to save you, but just for having the phone in your pocket and using it as a "phone" Juice Defender delivers.
I noticed on the market that roughly half people say it is excellent and the other half is whining that it just sucks. Give it a try a decide for yourself.

Just turn auto sync off and untick "Use wireless networks" and you will be blown away by the battery life.

The last two days my battery was losing power too quickly compared to my previous weeks with my note.
So I thought it must be an app which I installed which is causing this. The only app I installed recently was Google + so it took it off and hey presto - battery life back to normal again.
You might say well it doesn't drain my battery with google+ installed but it works with mine as I tried re-installing again and it sapped the battery again.
Maybe different apps effect different roms, kernals etc...just a thought and something you could try with a recently installed app.

I can see that as an option, and I believe that all of those who report great battery life are doing much the same. My problem is that I want to be kept alerted to emails. I have tried Juice Defender, as it starts up wireless at defined intervals, but since my email is checking at other defined intervals, at appears that the email never gets through. I have to assume they never coincide.
I also like certain apps to sync, although I guess I could do that manually. Currently I turn on autosync while at home or work with Llama. Luckily the wireless and autosync toggles are in the notification dropdown as well - that is a wonderful idea.
I use the Note far too much, so (as I have probably said) I am getting a tablet. I hope that it will serve as my email notification when I am at home or work. When Llama knows I am at neither place, it can disable autosync and enable mobile data for me (which I keep off at home & work).
It is a delicate balance trying to get full desired operation and decent battery life. I am not sure it is really worth all the agro. I may just settle for a spare battery in my wallet and a dock/battery charger by my bedside. That is probably the easiest of all options! Then I can game away whenever I like without constantly checking the battery

Im using a custom rom rocket rom v21 with abyss kernel... which gives me a battery for 40 hours approx. With fair amount of usage. Sync off facebook app as it sucks a lot of battery too.

Awesome! Been looking for this feature for awhile now. Only downfall is just remembering to switch it back when i'm using Pandora

A bit off topic but I experienced a fluke on my battery life, was just watching simpsons while I had my wifi connected and only had my yahoo messenger connected probably a total of 10-15 messages in 4hrs range, for 4 hours of screen time it normally drains 50-51% only.
I almost always have the same scenario when I watch simpsons on my phone, yahoo messenger running but it the first time to drain it like this.

well Known and interesting observation of My NOTE After Reset :-)

Hello Everybody ...
I am writing this just to let everybody know that Reset the phone really works.
I am from india and running galaxy note on stock with the latest update DDLB2 attached are the screenshot of rather beautiful battery life I am getting since yesterday night.
Thanks to so many great developers here on this forum. few users have suggested that after DDLB2 update they were having gr8 battery life however I was still in the same category of NOTE Owners who are getting not so good battery life. But since yesterday after doing a factory reset the results are awesome ....
It took almost 1 hour to restore all the apps and settings after factory reset (I used Ultimate Backup Free for this ) however results are really promising.
Let see how far my note goes now .... and how far it shows the same battery performance/backup.

before factory reset did you get good battery backup with LB2?

No ...
It was rather very poor battery backup even updating to DDLB2 .It is just improved when i did a factory reset. Also earlier it was like 3 to 4 %/hr battery lose during nights.

sounds great.. so how did you do the reset. settings>privacy>factory reset? i think i should try that.

I used to get poor battery backup despite having DDLB2. ..from past 3 days, i let my battery drain till 7~8 % and then full charge it with airplane mode on...and voila...!! I easily squeez 20 hours with moderate use...
Try that

Though it is not must, i always prefer to make clean update evry time.
Before making update, take application backup e.g. titanium backup
Hard reset device
Update ROM (watever convinient n needed PC odin/mobile odin/CWM)
restore data (avoice restore junks, red coloured in TB)
You will get real taste of update.

I am from India too. And i updated through OTA (only the 8MB part). Maybe that is why I am having the same poor battery life that I had before LB2 despite a factory reset.
Any way of flashing complete LB2 without rooting?

What I infer from Post 1 is that after 11 and a half hours, out of which screen is on for approx half an hour, battery is at 80%. Will try something similar and post my battery usage screenshots.

I used *2767*3855# to do the reset ...
There are other ways as well like via settings etc ....
I'll be posting complete result of my battery performance soon

So here is my full battery usage result with the screen shots.
Summary of my usage is as follows :
Battery from 100 to 7 % --- in 1 Day 9H 31 M 20 S
Display On : 2 Hr 31 Minutes
Voice Calls : 3Hr 36 Min 15 Sec
Data : 2g all the time on
Phone WIFI was also on for almost 12 Hr
GPS : I used google maps for 1 hr 30 Min with gps on however now it is not showing this in battery history now :-(
I just plugged usb cable for 30 seconds to just copy the screenshots (during this time ). I am happy to see the note performing exceptionally here.

Just 2.5 hours of disply on in a day. And no browser usage!!

Dont you see voice calls?

note battery sucks like all other android phones. battery is good only if you have no program installed. otherwise it gives you not more than 2 to 3 hours of usage no matter which rom or kernel you use. but anyway I love my phone.

Just another screenshot
Dear friends...
No offense with the screen time and any of the other statics ...
Just wanted to show you how my Tiger (Note) performed from 100 to 99 %
dont calculate rationally (i.e. if in 1 % it performed this long what it ll do in next 99%)
it is just to show that the battery life really got improved .....
Regardless of display time or standby time

I did follow your instruction and YES a great prrformance on my battery...2 days and still counting!!!

Hah, hah!
Check the voice calls. He is actually using the phone as a phone!
I have days like that. My 'best' (debatable) so far is 4 hours of ohone calls, and about 1 hour of screen + WiFi. I was down to about 50%, which is OK in my book.
Not using the phone at all, I have had 10+ days with only a few minutes usage each day on a friend's Note. I had just rooted and de-bloated it.
On that note (heh) I think the factory reset may have removed some app that was hogging the battery for the OP. Is that possible?

Battery Stats Thread

Now some of us have had the phone for a few days or in the case of our German friends, a week, can we start to collaborate some stats together about the battery usage?
Post in here screen shots of your (Epic) Battery stats, or not so epic as the case may be, screen on time, hints and tips on improving daily usage, what Rom you are using if Rooted etc.
Here is a current shot of mine, charged to 98%, then data etc turned off about 1am, phone left switched on, then data, wifi etc turned back on this morning. Currently 1 hr 15 mins screen on and 67% battery left after 18hrs.

should have left everything switched on!
im not someone who feels they should have to turns bits and pieces on and off in order to make my phone last the day.
if it lasts a good long day with decent usage throughout, thats good enough for me!

Plenty of time for that usage test, i just decided to turn it all off last night while drunk to see what was used by the morning, it lost 1% during the night, granted it was only about 6 or 7 hours. I think general use stats will shape up quite nicely on this phone.
EDIT:
Power save on at the moment as well, CPU Power, Display and Vibration checked, Data connection unchecked.

Closing in on 39hrs here at the moment. :victory:

I have a question for the Germans, where exactly have you got your One?
My parents are at Berlin right now. (without taking me :crying: ) I may still benefit from their trip (besides an empty house).

upload screen grab to Dropbox or your desktop or wherever you upload pics, use the paperclip icon when you reply to a post and use the pop up window to browse to wherever the pic is located, then hit upload and it should be attached to your post.

I lost 1% overnight with power saver enabled went to bed at 11 got up at 7. Amazing

Browsing, texts, calls, light usage i know, but i still have my One X in use as well while my number is ported.....currently standing at almost 2½ hrs screen on, over 44hrs on battery.
Tomorrow will start normal usage trial with no wifi on and data etc on all the time. I'm trying to see what i can get out of it, and then what i can't.

Okay, this where i got to with my stats. Today i will try for more normal usage and see what i can get with that.

Where are people getting the screen on times from? It used to be in the stock battery app but if it's not there the what third party app are people using?
Here is a shot of my first normal day, not massively epic but not too bad, no power saver until maybe the last 1 hour or so.
This includes Bluetooth car connection, some calls, lots of whstsapp and facebook. Small bits of web browsing, 20 to 40% brightness. Photos in the evening and then lots of foruming the last few hours.

Gsam battery monitor from Play store.

Here is my latest stats
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

For people who arent rooted - use gsam battery monitor.. post the normal page showing the big clunk battery with the screen time
Also post the battery history page from gsam or from htc..
Also post the app sucker page..
For rooted people- use better battery stats.. post kernel wakelock, partial wakelocks and alarm pages on here along with the battery history.. then everyone will get an idea how the battery works and people will even help you to find which apps cause wakelocks...
