Hi friends . i won a G3 and just flashed with JPA 3 days back. Everything is running smooth but with the known battery issue. back up is very poor around 12 hrs a days. beside that i faced a strange problem today. I charged my phone overnight and currently i am in office now. few minutes ago my ph suddenly showed up the notification of "battry full .. plz unplug the charger" while it was not charging. i am really having hell of a time with G3 battery issue. can anyone please suggest how to make it a bit stable.
poor back up was quite known to me.. but really pissed off with the false notification thing.. plz help.. regards..
No one to reply? That's sad..

I had that problem once, not sure what i did but it was probably just a reboot or removing and reinserting the battery
thanx for the reply... for the time being i have wiped the battery stat from the tutorial given on xda.. and experiencing significant change and no false notification, now i ma on 30hrs of usage with 40% left .. seems the meter reading also proper for the time being...
Should a new thread be made for Darkyy's rom battery drain discussion?
Would it be of any benefit?
Would it help keep the Darkyy rom thread cleaner for actual glitches / problems, and stop posts getting lost in a mine filed of battery trolling?
Darkyy would love to hear what you think mate .
There are plenty of battery drain threads out there but because people are using Darkyy's rom they feel they should post about it in the rom thread, instead of using the already available battery drain threads.
Vote and discuss please.
yes i think it should be investigated seperately from the rom thread , i dont think its the common battery issues people have . i think its a bug it the rom . take my experience with it for example
flashed from darky 8.0 to 9.0
did a wipe beforehand
within less than 12 hours the phone would not boot due to battery flat .
this was from a fully charged battery , with maybe 30 mins use at most .
went back to v 8.0 np at all
Those said said no, can we know why you disagree?
Flashed darkyy 9, I can go 3 days without charging ... tho I will admit i'm not a overly heavy user, and the phone is on wifi the entire time.. at the end of the 3 days i'm around 20% battery, so I find no drain problem here.

I personally don't believe its a problem with the rom at all other wise EVERYONE would have it which they don't. I can get about 3 days out of v9.1.

I get 1day and a few hours from it. 3 days if i dont use the phone at all

Are you using speedmod or voodoo?
Have you wiped the battery stats?
Did you do a wipe when you flashed to 9.1?
V9.1 carries over the battery stats from which ever rom you was using before i believe so there should be absoloutley no difference to your battery.
Theres an infinate amount of anomolies it could be theres no way to pin point the exact problem people have.
I have yeat to calibrate my battery, but indeed there is some kind of battery drain - no sync / no wifi and my battery goes down in around 12 hours. Still dont blame the ROM though, until I invesitigate and find the root cause for certain.
the battery jus drains quick in all darkys rom..the rom is gud but battry is a big issue.galaxy is kool wiv its color display but wats the fun wen u make a rom thts blacky jus to juice battry.but those who want snappy fast rom the darky is best.ive tested almost all diff roms an som r gud.everyone has a own choice.....
... and I'm sure someone will come soon and yell: Wrong forum section!

LOL yeah im waiting for that too mate.
At the end of the day though it would be better left here to stop flooding the rom thread.
People wont go to 2 different forums for one problem.
They will just keep flooding the rom thread...
Did you vote btw Darkyy? XD
actually with a fresh flash of 2.2 followed by 9.1 i see 3 times better battery
normal 2.2 lasted 3/4 a day
now 9.1+SO4_7_4 tests showing huge battery savings
will need a few days to give a detailed feedback on batt

that's a good idea..
think i'll try it too..
i said no because i get very good battery life with normal use - about 20-30 hours before it goes to 0.
9.1 with speedmod here, 1 day at most, no matter if I use or don't use the phone. Battery drain approx. 12% per hour, no matter if wifi is on or off...
Tried clearing battery stats, flashed wifi fix, removed self-updating widgets, no effect...
No offence but, dont we have enough Battery Drain threads around here? Im pretty sure we dont need rom/kernel specific battery drain threads, main thread will be spammed with it regardless of having this one (most of people around here are lazy to even read first post in the thread).
i was on darkys 9.1 and i found my battery drained quick, where as 8.0 was good
i dont use my phone much, i only use wifi when i need it, i only use gsm no 3g ever. everytime my phone goes back into my pocket i close all my apps thru task manager. bluetooth never gets used. i dont watch movies or play music. the only thing i do is play angry birds (that hammers my battery)
i still feel my battery life is poor and i have done all the methods to save its life like automatic brightness and NoLed ect.
shedding some light on this matter would be great... i think samsung should do something more about this... they can cram all this stuff into a tiny device, but yet they cant make a battery last more than 1-2days.
we can put a man on the moon... but an increased battery life is mind boggling ????
Should a Darkky battery drain thread be made?

The poll question is redundant as this thread itself is about the battery drain...

haha true
Too many variables. Everyone sets their phone up differently. I have been having pretty good battery life on 9.1 but I installed DU meter & I lost 40% in 3hrs. Its all dependant on whats running.
I dont see this as a ROM problem personally.

use g3mod kernel v 1.2.4 or 1.3.4 it will be better
use battery callibrator app available in the market
If it happens badly with the stock Rom and kernel, it is time to buy a new battery.

Same problem for me too "my phone gets switched off when i am talking on the phone for more than 20 min" i went to samsung care for this problem, first time they said this could be a software problem and they flashed a new firmware and gave it to me the problem was not solved then i went the second time this time they said that it was a mother board problem and they changed it gave it to me yesterday i.e on 17.12.11 now still i have the same problem. i dont know what to do now i think i will take it tomorrow again
If your battery is more than a year old, buy a new one. Solved the problem for many people.

I'm in stock MM ROM and I get between 2h and a half and 3 hours of screen on time. I believe its a problem of battery.
I intend to change my battery for a new one because we are supposed to have between 5 h 1/2 and 7 h of screen on time I think.
Does anyone gets more than that ?

Hi,
To little information to find a real reason for your issue.
Might be bad battery, might be just your heavy usage or some unusual wakelocks:
Do as follows:
1. Install one of the available battery monitoring apps. I recommend BetterBatteryStats:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15869868#post15869868
2. Read carefully the instructions/help
3. When you get some knowledge about battery overview and wakelocks -> analyze the results from the app by your own and try to find a cause for your problem or
4. Make proper dump file from the app and post it on the BBS thread asking for help.
