Poor Battery Performance of my S 2

Hello everyone,
My S2 only last for 10-13 hours and it drains battery too fast. Tried everything and nothing happened.
In my phone i disabled almost everything which drain battery.
No Facebook
No auto syn of Gmail
Access location is off.
GPS Off
Soft key light/Vibration off
No skype
Disabled Accu weather app
Disabled many others bloat ware
Brightness is set at almost zero level
Better Battery Stats show connectivity wake lock. i think ghis the main problem for drain.
And plz tell me how can i set my phone to only gsm. There is no option for that in phone. In setting it says GSM / wcdma and only wcdma. I set it at gsm/wcdma. Am from Pakistan and here there is no 3g/wcdma.
And if by dialing *#*#4636#*#* i choose gsm, it comes back to gsm/wcdma. Is it draining battery?

<nvm, didn't read properly...>

what ROM are you using ??

What!?
You wrote "My S2 only last for 10-13 hours and it drains battery too fast."
On attached screenshot you have 80% left after 6 hours of usages whereas 48% is used by Screen and 17% is used by Boat Browser.
You have to expect about 1~1½ % drain per hour ... even if you don't use your phone.
Screen drains a lot depending of your amount of Brightness! If you can get 4 hours Screen On, your happy.
From what I can see ... your battery time is totally normal!

I have Stock rom ICS 4.0.4
My cellphone is branded version and it comes from 3 Mobile UK.

no its not normal.. today i charged it and not use it for 2 hours.. i put it on airplane mode and leave it for 2 hours after 100% charge, to check the partial wakelocks.
I thought this time connectivity service wakelock doesn't appear but it does.
i thought connectivity service wakelock is due to mobile signal but when i put it on airplan mode for 2 hrs this partial wakelock still appear.

Hmm , I am not a Fan of ICS though, but the battery time which you have shared (Just Saw it) LOL , it is totally fine , and secondly , use a safe kernel to root the phone (PhilZ Kernel) link is in my signature , and then Flash NeatROM Lite v4.0 , my battery lasts easily 18-20h and i am a heavy user of the phone with Calls , Messaging , FB , Twitter, Whatsapp, Viber & Tapatalk
Follow my guide which i posted Here

PLS STOP with all this Juice Defender nonsense! A task killer often will drain your battery even more ... some processes will just restart again after you have killed it.
On newer Android version (GB and ICS) I haven't found any task killers that actually prolonged my battery time.
Adjust your screen brightness as low as possible, use a dark backgrounds and themes, get rid of unnecessary Widgets and Live Screen backgrounds, Sync Mail, Calendar, Twitter only when needed ... and then you will be fine :good:

Frm the screen shot it seems you have background processes running(BBM n alarms). If you are always on 3g/wifi then the battery draining is normal. Or you can buy a new one for your satisfaction. Or charge it fully n dont use it just check for successive draining and if it drains within minutes then buy a new one.

Turn of features like google now and google location reporting. They consume hell lot of memory. Install greenify.

Try to check your battery if it is swollen...this is the big down of s4..
Or maybe a bad flash of your rom if u have
I'm using lindroid rom and i experienced good battery life. I also tried thunder_universe rom and thorvicc did a good job...
Try also one of any custom rom it might solve your problem

thanks to all

Battery Problem?

Had the phone just 2 days and noticed that the Android System is taking most of battery. I am managing 3.5 hours on full brightness. I am happy with that but I am wondering why the Android System is taking up so much. Any ideas?

I'd love to know this as well since it also takes the most ram. My S3 was, sadly, more efficient.

It's not a huge problem for me as the battery is still good. I just want to know what could cause it.

Also, when leaving over night. It went down 1% an hour. Is that good?
Sent from my SM-G900F using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I'd say so. You must not have very many background processes. Have you turned off bloatware?

Check your battery stats, mine uses 10-15% in an hour...
Autobrightness or manual?
(please, don't tell me 100% brightness...)

Autobrightness on... also the lights of my buttonss don't turn off even if I set it to 1.5 seconds, the only way to fix it is enabling ultra P saving For a moment. .but when I reboot the phone, the problem is back

Battery drain because of "call services"

I'm extremely disappointed in my phone's battery life. I used to be able to stream on Google plays music app for hours before needing to switch batteries. Now it dies earlier without any actual usage.
What could be a potential fix?
Poor signal was my first thought but why would that only now be a problem? Should I just start with a clean slate? (Factory reset, reflash my ROM) I'm lost, only thing on Google directs me to "Google play services" battery drain threads.
