Hi
Latest LPA ICS update is draining my battery badly, 50% drain over 5 hours with gps+wifi+3g off and no talking or doing anything..
reading about all roms since 2 days but still confused.
which rom should I go with? my first try...
also I have rooted ics stock rom with stock recovery and kernel.. how to proceed?
Read the threads to find out which causes your drain.
Im on LPA with Gl-notecore 1.3 extreme kernel, no issues with battery drain.

I use the latest goku kernel. With this kernel the wakelock problem is resolved. You can use an app like cpu spy to see if your device goes into deep sleep state. Since you mentioned such an intense battery drain I suspect your device not going into deep sleep.

Asylum rom with the unnamed kernel kick ass! I highly recommend it. So smooth and battery life is amazing

I have the syndicate loaded ROM with xtreme kernel. V1.0.1
I noticed there is a newer version of the kernel. I'm am very much a noob so I need someone to tell me step by step, how do I flash the updated kernel?

ok, figured it out
Any difference after the new kernel?
I am using the Syndicate ROM but the extreme kernel was too buggy for me ( too many fc's) even after mutiple wipes. I went to the Fluffkernel and it is awesome, I am using the battery saving one and I am still at 50% at the end of the day.

So far I notice an amazing battery life since upgrading, 74% after 12 hours with minimal usage (6 hours asleep). Before, I would lose about 40 percent with 6 hours sleep.

I just updated to ics via ota and rooted my note. No custom Roms loaded.
I would like to tweak my phone for better battery life. Installed setcpu.
Anyone can share what's your stable setting?
Thanks in advance

Not sure what setcpu will give you for better battery life. Your not running an custom kernel to allow UV. The only thing you can do is set a screen of profile(I don't suggest this) or under clock it.
What's the normal cpu level?

Base on overnight status, I am running on 88% on 200mhz. Phone not sleeping at all.
Guys, or can u suggested a stable custom rom ? The reason why i am not on custom rom is because i am not sure which os more stable. I didn't want to end up flashing my phone every other day. I just wanted better battery life, and probably some mod to quicken the charging process. I use my phone mainly for whatsapp, email, foruming. Not really into games.

I think we all are waiting for a Pershoot kernel (keep an eye on http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/) although I have to say that I have never felt so little need to OC than with this ROM...
Maybe with CPU intensive games but I don't do gaming on my mobile devices.
yaa we should wait for peershot kernel. Btw battery life with this rom is quite amazing almost double the time the 3.2 gave, I lost only 1% in 7 hours standby. may be OC reduce the battery life a bit.

Maybe we can gain battery life by keeping a low clock when not in use...i am definitely looking forward for a new kernel as well.
i havent overclock ICS yet but i did overclock JellyBean to 1.4 via SetCpu. Its running very smooth!!!!!
Hello,
The battery on my S3 is driving me crazy. I originally had an S3 and went to the Note II, but reverted back to another S3 because I couldn't stand the size of the Note. Anyway, this S3's battery is really bad - I barely use it and it drains 5% an hour, sometimes more. I've tried everything, location is turned off, social media is all turned off I just update it manually... I've attached some screenshots. it was 50% and dropped to 34% in just 2 hours and a half, I only used it for 2 minutes during that time according to the Screen data.
Any thoughts, suggestions or miracle solutions are appreciated.
Have you tried turning it on and off again?
Seriously try another ROM dude

I've tried turning it on and off, tried wiping data.... Forgot to mention I'm running Sotmax Ultimate Stock ROM v8 w/ Yank555 v2.7 kernel. Everybody's reporting great battery life with the setup, can't say the same.

I used to have abysmal battery life too, on LK4 stock till I discovered that several stock apps were the culprits. I disabled them and now my battery is almost on par with how it was when running ICS.
Try disabling the below apps. If it works well and good. If not, you've got to investigate what's happening.

Ahlan.
Phone rooted. Since I installed the new JB 4.1.2 my battery live is really good : for example 48% remaining after 17 hours of use with 56 mns calls etc... and I keep everything working (WiFi, Bluetooth and all apps)
Updates from facebook and nova launcher seem to be your worst enemy

Try this. Im using Sotmax as well but with perseus kernel. In stweaks I under volted the CPU by -75mv and gpu by -50mv. Super smooth and completely stable.
I tried other kernels and I just couldn't get good battery life. I'm getting about 14 hours of solid use. Screen on of about 3.5 hours. I used to only get 7-8 hours.
The other thing I did was freeze the following which constantly run in background.
Video Hub
Software Update
SSuggest
Samsung Push Service (for Sammy app updates)
Make sure you remove your Samsung account. It constantly runs in background.
Wifi advanced settings change Wifi policy to only when charging. I find Wifi drains this phone fast.
I highly recommend resetting the battery levels by typing *#0228#
Then choose quick start. Unlock the phone and your battery will show the actual levels. Charge to 100%
Finally, I matched the ril with the modem included with this rom. Install the app getril and download the proper ril and install.
Hope this helps!

Guys my battery life is really bad, every morning the phone is dead, I am currently rooted using the Alliance ROM.
Can someone suggest a better kernel or battery friendly ROM?
I'd check for wakelocks or rogue apps first.
If the rom had an issue it'd all ver the thread.
Download gsam battery monitor or better battery stats and try to see what's the reason your phone is awake.

I agree. This should isolate the cause of your abnormal battery drain. Then you would need to determine a way to eliminate the wakelocks, using a means such as uninstalling the wake causing apps.
Alternatively you could factory reset.

Post some screenshots so we can help decipher the problem.
Im running omega rom with omega kernel and I get great battery life.just try out some different roms and kernels and you will find a good rom and kernel setup.
