OK, this is unbelievable.
The battery drain on XXJVO was driving me crazy. Reading the forums I noticed some people said the Android OS issue was fixed on 2.3.4. Yesterday, I flashed XXJVR with re-partition and bootloaders via Odin, using the OXAJVQ CSC. I also installed the Voodoo lagfix for XXJVR.
I did a factory reset before and after the flash. Did a battery pull, all the steps that we're used to.
For my surprise, a few minutes ago, the phone discharged in 8 hours to 47%. Guess what? Its the Android OS again. Take a look at the attached screenshots.
Did I do something wrong? Is this normal on 2.3.4?
EDIT: Following $omator and madrooster's advice, I decided to flash everything again from scratch and install all the apps directly from the Android Market. Apparently, the issue was being triggered by a restored appdata backup via TitaniumBackup. I've been using the phone for about a week now, with no issues at all.
im running custom rom gingerreal 7.1.4 JVQ with galaxianEE kernel and lagfix enabled. my modem is ZSJPG and csc XAJVQ.
no issues like u have.
but i have to say, that the battery drain is heavier than on froyo.
Man, that's pretty serious drain. I'm running Ramad's stock deodexed JVR since it was postes with semaphore kernel and my usage is never more than 15%. Why don't you post a pic of the bigger graph?
only way to avoid battery drain is that you remove the battery from phone
have no idea haw did you managed to break jvr but you did it =)
i guess youve runed some app that was not letting phone to sleep
or the system got some broken ones tat caused this (yes wrongly flashed system maybe hehe)
btw notice the blue line under your graph - it should look more like on attached screen
Im also running gingerreal 7.1.4 JVQ with semaphore 1.32 and after 2 weeks of use no battery drain.
Android OS is always below 10% (mostly on 4-5%)
The Android OS bug was fixed from stock JVQ onwards. The reason you guys experience that is because you are using custom kernels built from old source codes released by Samsung or heavily modified by the developer. Go complain to your respective custom kernel thread.

Thanks jb. That could be the reason. I am using Voodoo kernel, maybe that's what causing the drain. Has anyone else on Voodoo experienced the same problem?

jb, I remember that I played Captain America in the morning, but the phone froze and I had to battery pull it. After the restart, I didn't touch it again for like 6 hours. In the night, the phone rang and when I tried to pick up the call, the screen wouldn't turn on, so I had to battery pull it again.
After I turned it back on, I checked the battery stats and noticed the Android OS was running crazy, as you can see in the screenshots.
Captain America afaik is not sensor based, and I battery pulled the phone after I played, cuz it froze. I'd love to blame the game, but I cannot.
Edit: But... looking at the stats, the orientationd process is right next to the Android OS. Could this happen if the phone wasn't resting on a flat surface? :S
Yup the orientationd process was burning you battery juice, the reason why you got Android OS bug. I guess you should try to change your custom kernel or if you really like your current phone setup, you should install Watchdog lite or any similar app to monitor system processes, such as Android OS, for unusually high cpu usage and just reboot your phone when it does occur
i wonder what else is broken in this guys phone that wathcdog and reserting will not fix =)

$omator help me out here. What kernel would you recommend for JVR that keeps everything as stock as possible but includes lagfix? I use Voodoo since it is pretty light, but it doesn't seem to behave so well after all.
stock + cfroot is always a win

Android os drain goes away for my 2.3.3 kg3 stock setup after wiping cache partition and dalvik cache. Ran for weeks and never came back.

This battery drain problem is caused by the kernel you have. It is caused by a bug in a specific device driver.
The phone tries to go into power save mode but something prevents it. When the phone fails to reach a low power mode, you see the battery drain. In summary, if you run a custom, non stock Rom you might not have the battery drain fix. Try to make sure that any custom kernel you use has the same kernel version as stock.
Wow that is pretty big drain.. On my xxjvr (2.3.4 ) it only uses 9 to 10% don't know what's wrong though

Not for me...
1. Clean the phone.
Flashed JVR (from samfirmware). Flashed CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVR-v4.1-CWM3RFS. Flashed JVR STOCK+ v1.41 aosp losckscreen ODEX.
All closed by me in settings (NO GPS, NO wifi, NO data, NO... nothing) and the mobile network mode set to GSM only. At 22.00 hour battery was at 98%.
Next day in the morning at 10.30 hour, the phone beeps that the battery is at 15%... Looking in the Battery use, discover that in about 12 hours, the Android OS (90%) is draining the battery. OMG...
2. Fully charge the phone, clean the phone.
Flashed JVR (from samfirmware). Flashed speedmod-kernel-k15i-t10. Flashed JVR STOCK+ v1.41 aosp losckscreen ODEX.
All closed by me in settings(NO GPS, NO wifi, NO data, NO... nothing) and the mobile network mode set to GSM only. At 22.00 hour battery was at 96%. Next day in the morning at 09.30 hour, check the phone.
Surprise! At about 12 hours, the battery "lose" only 4%. And NO Android OS in the battery use.
3. Next day, clean the phone. Fully charge the phone.
Flashed JVR (from samfirmware). Flashed TalonDEV-0.4.4.22-1200-I9000-BIGMEM-CWM3. Flashed JVR STOCK+ v1.41 aosp losckscreen ODEX. All closed by me in settings(NO GPS, NO wifi, NO data, NO... nothing) and the mobile network mode set to GSM only. At 23.00 hour battery was at 98%. Next day in the morning at 08.00 hour, check the phone.
Surprise! At about 10 hours, the battery "lose" only 5%. And NO Android OS in the battery use.
4. Next day, clean the phone. Fully charged battery.
Download again the CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVR-v4.1-CWM3RFS.

I'm not a specialist in Android, but with this experiment, understand that in my case, the "drayner" of the battery was decided by the kernel, and I decided to flash the JVR stock+ with speedmod-kernel-k15i-t10.
I don't say that the CFroot is bad or that another kernel is good, but for me CFroot don't works good.
please help me.!
my defy not charge whith charger...i am charge battery with external adapter.....when connect charger to defy not charge and show question mark on logo battery............sorry my engilish is bad...

my rom is cm10 foroyo kernel...i flash many rom but battery not work...
can you go back to an older ROM using recovery? if you go to recovery can you see a battery level meter at the bottom?
Don't know if this will help, I had the same issue my defy wasn't recognizing the battery and it wasn't charging.
I tried anything possible, via software, (which you should try as well). I flashed stock sbf, tried with different roms, going to gb kernel and back to froyo kernel but nothing worked.
I got a new battery and everything works as it should, my defy was just 2 months old when that happened

Anyone else had this / any ideas - my s4 randomly reboots. Can sometimes be when I'm using it or other times when it is sitting idle.

yup, i had this after running a custom rom for a few days. i'm sure it wasn't the rom though, i restored back to stock last night just in case, we'll see.
However, in the future, please also post your ROM, kernel, etc.
For example, having your phone OC might result in such random reboots...

I didn't change the kernel and I don't want to name the ROM because I'm sure it's not its fault - it was fine for a few days with plenty of reboots and activity/usage. Sounds like others on stock have the same problem (not necessarily related to the camera issue), so I've gone back to my stock backup and will see what transpires.

I understand you, but it is not like blaming the ROM creator. Is that you might have discovered a bug, and you can help to get it solved.
personally, the first thing I would do is to make a factory reset. This is not the case for you any more... but however.
Good luck and please tell us got things go on...
Fair enough, it was slim bean build 6 on Verizon. I reverted to my stock twrp backup last night (10hrs ago) and been fine so far...
Guys i know nemesis is banned on xda but still i need immediate help.
Guys yesterday i downloaded and flashed Nemesis V2 on my phone then it was working fine it was on stock kernal after that i put my phone on charge and went to sleep when i wake up i saw the phone has not charged a bit rather it has decreased to 17%.
I thought it is a kernel problem and flashed percy gnu#10. But then also the problem persisted rather it was worsened then i switched off the device and put it to charge and it worked well. I tried flashing stock rom via odin but the problem remains same. Guys plz help asap.
DO NOT mention the name of banned roms in xda. BTW, i think it is caused by:
1. Battery itself
2. Internal Hardware
3. Charger adapter

Might be hard ware problems,
But you could try deleting battery stats in CWM in might help.
install stock rom twice
or maybe you charge it in electric shutdown lol:silly:
Hardware error for sure, get another charger or get your phones's charging slot tested.

Look at your charging slot and charger plug.
Maybe it has dust or something in.
Had the same issue few weeks ago, i had some tomato sauce in there, dont ask, i dont know
Anyway i solved this special kind of brick with a simple toothpick and cleaned everything.
Thnx guys changing the charger helped me out.
