Hello, I don't know if my battery is dying, but lately I've been experiencing terrible battery drops (70% to 50%, 40% to 20%) using CM10, that started since the 24.09 build. Then I flashed stock and installed the latest nightly build from Quarx, (10.01) thinking that it might fix that way, and I've read that you should be able to have a better battery performance but I didn't. Anyway, I went back to stock, thinking that CM10 might be the reason of those drops, but it happened again.

I would like to know if indeed my battery is damaged, or if I'm doing something wrong or I'm missing something at any installation step.
thanks in advance for the help.

Drops usually mean ur battery is bad, but maybe you should clear battery stats (in recovery) and see if that fixes anything, if not buy a new battery, that's what I did, hovever I even got the 1700 mAh one (original for defy+) and I love it
Buy only original batteries, cause others are usually awful....

I did the "clear battery stats" thing, and did not work at all, still the drops... Then I went for the buying option, and I bought a 1500mAh last week, and it works like a charm! no drops at all ! At least not that big, hehe, anyway, thanks for the tip!

I check battery usage now and again and since I moved to gb you have the handy dandy graph. However as seen in the attached graph there is very strange drop I can't explain maybe some might help shed some light?

I've seen this once, after turning the phone off and putting in a diff. Battery... Could also be something else.
Would have made more sense if it corresponded to hooking up to wifi. I get over 2 days on wifi on weekends at home.
You have data corruption that's not giving you an accurate read on the battery.

I would get drops in my graph when my phone randomly rebooted or when the modem crashes. Check your uptime when you see those dips, it will probably correspond with those dips. At least it did for me.
Thx for the responses guys. Yea I have noticed both 4g and wifi seem to get a lot better battery life than 3g which was not the case with froyo. I figured that is what samsprint are working on. It might have been a reboot but I can't get data corruption from a reboot when I'm on rfs right? All in all I chalk it up to an unfinished build but I thought I would ask around anyways.

I've had some ridiculous graphs. Open Gaps, 90% battery loss, you name it. It happens lol.

Turn off yur phone then back on again you'll see the exact same thing happen, and obviously since your on gingerbread, it was a reboot, which is common with the leaks.

Hi guys,
So I am super happy with my nexus 7. And battery life is amazing when the tablet is in use - I can literally game for hours!
Where the problem seems is the battery drain while the tablet is NOT in use (ie it is locked).

Is this normal? I am using stock everything (the tablet is, however, rooted with busybox and touch recovery installed)
Thanks for info!

What is your amount of screen on time?

Mine has happened the same for around a week, since I got 4.2!
Thus, I have more problems, I had connected y nexus 7 into my Car usb charger and since then he has act strange.
Can get ADB or Fastboot in PC, and battery drains RLY fast even in sleep mode, I checked that the kernel is getting most of the drain...
Mine still unrooted, so even Battery Calibration is not an option... trying to find if is possible to root it from the device itself (since I can't connect it to the PC :?)
So I know the phone gets hot but I was watching a flash video on Firefox and the audio got garbled. I closed Firefox immediately and took this screenshot.

Everything else about my N4 is excellent. Well, except battery life. That aside, is this a hardware issue? I hate doing RMAs but I'd hate for my phone to die even more and can't be without a phone.

How many hours do you get screen on?
You could try a kernel w/ undervolting available and see if that helps.
If your phone is rooted and have busy box installed then I'd recommend Bricked kernel. I used to have issue with heat too but after using bricked kernel I have never seen it goes up past 105. Its even rare to see it goes up to 100.
So this could be a kernel issue then? Hm. I'll think about it then. I wanted to keep the phone stock but maybe I'll try the kernel.

from my experience flash always makes the phone run hot. hell anything that uses the CPU at a high utilization for a long amount of time makes it hot, games like GTA Vice City for example

He's right. It's flash.
I have a huge problem with battery life on my G2. Everything started after playing with Kitkat custom roms and kernels.. With every single combinations (rom + kernel) I always have battery life problem. Yesterday I decided to go back to JB and see how it will works, but.. I have same issue on it.. I am using my phone for 19 hours and 2.19h on screen and 27% of battery left. What can I do to deal with this problem?
Also curious...
Few screenshoots from wakelock detector.

Here's an idea: Uninstall all that crap and test again.
Also, post English screenshot if you want help. This isn't a ->Insert your weird language here<- forum.
I'd clean reinstall a new ROM (I'm on cloudy G3 with native kernel) and just use Clean Master to help boost battery life. Mine is very good so far. Around 5 hrs of SOT and almost 3 days of standby.
To the OP,
Are you restarting your phone in either silent or vibrate? That's what caused my 1013 wakelock in the past. I always reboot without vibrate/silent on now, and have not seen this issue.
Secondly, game playing will use a lot more battery than normal. It heats up the phone and works the GPU/CPU. For example, my battery only lasts 3.5 hours with Ingress playing.
Third, looks like you have some Android OS wake locks. Do you have Google now/location settings on and reporting?
My MAXX has been acting up as of late with what I believe to be battery related issues. The phone would run fine to 50% battery and then become unstable, sometimes it'll all of a sudden drop down to 5% and more often would reboot. Ordered an Onite 3500mah battery off Amazon and installed it. Charging as I am typing this post. Hope it fixes my problems as I still love this phone even being an iPhone 6s owner for a while now. Lenovo can go suck it, it's not Motorola's fault it is not upgrading the MAXX to Lollipop, it's the new management.

Currently sitting at 70% on the same charge as the OP. Seems like the phone is doing OK with the new battery. Will see if it'll make it through the day without a charge. I miss the JB days when the phone legitimately can go without a charge for days. KitKat and Lollipop ended that with a quickness. My iPhone 6s with its tiny battery have very similar battery life to the MAXX on normal use but iOS is much better at idling as I can go without a charge for days on low usage occasions. The MAXX with Greenify, Amplify and Power Nap still can't come close, don't know how the deep doze feature in Marshmallow compares. Guess I'll find out here shortly as CM13 for the MotoX seems to be coming along nicely thanks to a few dedicated members. Guess the trigger point would be when they fix the flashlight issue... They seem to have everything else working.
