This research is completly based on previous posts here on xda by other members + based on my testing:
1. Get app CpuSpy from the market. Observe with it if your phone goes to "deep sleep" or not.
2. If you see your phone doesn't enter deep sleep, go to Applications, Battery use and close all applications like default Email app (that caused my phone to constantly use ~245Mhz of my CPU when idle), also check your widgets for various weather updates, ...
3. Apply latest franco kernel (with my experience, this kernel also improved my battery life)
4. Make sure you have turned off in Settings, Date & Time, "Automatic".
5. Disable data transfer under Wireless & Networks.
6. Set Brightness level to Automatic as screen drains the battery alot.
7. Apply the custom roms provided here (MIUI, Oxygen) which are based on Gingerbread (2.3), which also has better battery usage than FroYo (2.2), especialy on U8800.
Hope this helps for some people here
Thanks for the information
but I think if I do all of that, it makes no sense to buy a smartphone in first place

no sense? damn you crazy! the guy says nothing about any of crucial smarphones features. What you can't live with automatic brightness? or with franco kernel?
Selecting 2g over 3g aimake huge difference in battery life.

only the data connection otherwise ur right as hell
THE BIGGEST impact on battery life is as you all may know- DISPLAY. You can disable everything, but those things only takes 20-30% of battery everything else is for display. So.. turn ir off D Its very bad that all roms allows you only to minimize brightness to 11% but i want to minimize it even more, but they do not allow me. cause at nights 11% is too bright for me.
I even thinking to compile my own modified franco kernel just because of that DD But with MIUI rom it shows bull**** in battery usage.

I didn't mean any of them. I mean all of them...
I agree with the guy that said there is no much point using smartphone if you don't use data or application syncs etc. At least thats why I use android phones.

I just wanted to post few tips for better battery performance. Anyhow, to the trolls in this topic:
Yesterday i discovered a nice app called 2X battery and tried it today.
As usually my battery goes from 100 to 50 by 12hrs, so with this 2xbattery on, its almost 15hrs and batter is still 67%
nice app 10p

Can you update the franco Kernel on a stock rom? and If I don't like it, if I restore backup from clockworkmod will the old kernel come back?
Thanks

AFAIK no. Franco stated that his kernel only works with 2.3 ROM. The stock one is 2.2.

How long is a bit of string?
What is the meaning of life?
Your question is the same as the ones above - who knows
most likely you have an app that is draining the battery - for example kik messenger or bbm or some other app that is keeping the phone awake or just draining battery
use an app on the playstore that will tell you app battery usage

If you have a lot of running apps in the background dont expect your battery to last longer.. Uninstall apps you dont use and keep your phone clean

no , that not cause by running apps.i dont install an application that running in backgroud.but it was due coz by battery drain after unplug the charger
Clear battery stats from recovery
And keep the battery in a cool place "refirgerator" for a while cause high temperature increase ionization rate and consequently battery drain fastee

That is not enough ...you need an app like BBS , let it run for a few hours and read the logs,,,,,then you will have enough information to find the culprit

See..first check your charger.
1st A duplicate charge charges your phone fake fast and drains it equally fast
2nd calibrate your battery and test the drain rate again
3rd if you have a recovery, boot in recovery-->advanced-->clear battery.stats and check again
4th Turn sync off. Location settings off.
5th check for any background processes that run and which you dont kill..
6th have greenify or juice defender if nothing helps
7th paste a screen shot od settings-->more--->battery and we can see something
Nothing more relating to battery.
Plus please provide enough information so that we can help you out in a better awesome way B)
Sorry if I sound rude bro..No hard feelings..we were like you too
Plus note 2 has a bigger better battery with less features than the s4. Dont compare different phones

Hi guys welcome to this thread and today I will tell you ways on how to get more battery life out of your device/1. don't constantly use you're device as this can lead to battery problems. Med-High use at max //2.If you're using a custom rom it can overheat the device so be warned, this can also lead to more battery problems, for example cyanogenmod. But the problems are fixed on that rom I believe/ /If you do these two things then you should be ok, good luck guys and try not to brick you're devices if you downgrade from lollipopto Kitkat/Hope this has helped and click the thanks button is this thread has helped you if you have had any issues on you're Moto E device.

This is your battery saving tip!!!
Ohh man we never knew that.
Great observation.
infinite battery life
Try using the infinate battery life script, if you are rooted. This can help increase the battery life by far. Hope this helps.
If you want more battery, root you're device and install a battery life script. If anyone wants to link I can give it to them. If this does not help and you done to root the device install a external battery life booster from the play store. Hope this helps if not pm me or reply. Good luck, if your device does not last at least a full day without charging turn down the brightness settings on the device as this will improve battery life. Another way would be to close any unwanted apps and 3g/wifi as this can drain battery usage. Hope this helps?
@ANDROmodderHD, I have just one "noobish" question: Why are you spamming? :'3
You are just asking us to just keep the phone on standby, turn off everything, even the apps we are using even those we need to be kept running and even turn off the internet, pull down the brightness to zero so that we can't see anything out under the sun. Then what do we do with the phone? Throw it away into the storeroom or sell it?
You could sell it if you like. I know where you are coming from but if you just turned up the brightness when you are using it then you can turn it down when you are not. This could help.

Don't you think the phone will be on standby with the display *off* when I am not using it? How will the brightness level matter then?
PS. You are damn interesting
I found out the battery lasts more then 24 hours when on a low to medium brightness setting. Even when you are not using it. Why don't you take a test to see if the battery would last more longer if it was on a higher or lower brightness setting when you are not using the phone. My battery life can last more than a day. So see for yourself.

I can't imagine how battery brightness can affect battery life when screen is off, I mean, no matter if you have brightness at maximum because screen is off.

C'mon man. We don't need to test because we know the phone is not stupid. What you are experiencing is called a "placebo" effect dude. Use your brains and don't act so noobish, no offense but this is getting irritating. I too made the battery last for 2 and half days when I did not use the phone at all because I was damn sick.
For improving battery life, try keeping the CPU clock to lowest (300MHz) when the phone is on standby. By default, the minimum freq. on LP is set to 787MHz unlike that of on KK which is 300Mhz. Just revert it back to 300MHz as min and set the governor to interactive. Or, ever heard of "deep sleep?" That's the best battery saving technique.

Exactly..!!
Stupidity ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ
Btw guys u can use GREENIFY app for saving battery and also xposed modules like Boot Manager.
Or flash a custom kernel which can sometimes make the battery last longer. This depends if you are already running cm or any other Rom with a custom kernel.
O.O
.... *slowly walks away*
Is this thread still going on??
Yes, if you want it to be on. Anyways this might be slightly of topic but is anyone running a custom rom. I know this may be off topic but has anyone got LP working on their device? Hope the update is good, what does everyone think about LP? Do you like it more than kitkat?
As u can see battery life is no too good or its average.Is there any way to improve the battery life ??

Reset battery status
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-grand-2/general/reset-battery-stock-motion-ll-roms-t3313518
OK Now I also have something to tell about this
Last night I experimented On my Phone-
My phone was on stand by/Not used for 6-7 Hours on 1% battery
After this when I checked the battery, it was still at 1%-This meant that standby battery was ok
Also I looked into for a solution and found that U should try to calibrate ur battery-Discharge it till 0% then offline charge ur phone till 100% - so battery is calibrated - but still its a long experiment
U can tryy th is too
If it worked Plz Inform
use amplify battery extender if you want real battery backup
and limit the wakelocks and alarm
i can browse till 8 hours screen on time i have limited most of the wakelocks and my device still running fine without any lag or missing any importent notification or else
you can try and see the results u need pro version in order to have full use of this app
hit thanks
