To reproduce this bug/feature you just have to start Core Player or TCPMP close it and measure battery usage, it goes up for 10-15 mAh and never go back to normal after you close it. My guess is that this is due ATI Imageon initialization which is normal but it is not normal to stay after you close player. It would be interesting to see results on Windows Mobile 5 because I'm using latest PV's WM6 ROM.
...wow...
can u try this with coreplayer ?
just finished at gym and noticed mine does this too with core player- not sure if it somehow increased the brightness of my trinity but after a soft reset the mA was still high so i checked brightness and it was on full- even though i never have it more than 50%...... Dropped back to 50% and its back to normal....
Sorry to borrow the thread for a sec.
I see a lot of posts where people post the Battery usage in mAh, I have been trying to search both google and this forum for an application that can do this, please could someone point me in the right direction?

yes, it is the one that can tell you if the battery is ok or drains...

Cool, thanks.
but I will hand thread back to originator. Thank you.
hello everyone,
I had try some screen lock app but i had not found one that I really like.... i tried sensorlock and LockMeLite from geoks100, those are not so bad but i would like somethings else maybe something with gsensor, however olso without gsensor would be great.
thanks for the help and sorry for my bad english
S2U2 does the job for me, very customizable as well. No g-sensor support tho..
Hi, try Throttlelock or S2U2. I use S2U2 and its great!
I would like to use S2U2 but there seems to be comments around its use and battery drain. Is this the case or do you guys have a more positive experience with it?
Cheers

Don't notice any excessive battery drain here.
tanks guys your apps really rocks.... I have just tried Throttlelock and S2U2... both great, but I think I'm going for S2U2
thanks again

S2U2
The new Version it´s owesome you can even lock your hd now, great. But it seems that the application use to much from the battery again. The Version before didn´t use much voltage.
I tried to find out, how much the application need. I didt use the phone for an almost whole day. I didn´t call and I didn´t used the phone for playing. Only in the following morning it should wake me up. The battery shows me 100% by the beginning. The following morning it shows me remain 40% battery capacity. I´m sorry but that´s too much.
The application self is very very cool and the idear behind is cool as well, but the developer should check the application again, because from 100% Battery to 40% (in between 10 hours) is too much
thx

If I use the version 1.45 the voltage will stays for two or two and a half days without charging. Even than I still have between 45%-35%.
I changed it back to 1.45 and I don´t have any problem. Maybe these developers will see it later and they will change something inside the application.
I like S2U2 combine with geye and the lock application, but it sucks to much voltage from the battery.
Hi guys.
I always feel that my display eats the most of my battery..I know what do you expect from S.AMOLED Plus displays..Gorgeous i know but eats your battery..Anyway great app on the market that i have started to use and it works wonders for me and would like to spread the word, if you don't already know about about this app..
Link is this https://market.android.com/details?id=com.haxor&hl=en
Apologies if you already have it, but i just thought if there are more people like myself who want to save a bit of juice on your battery this is a great app to use specially if your brightness is abit to much as well.
Cheers
very good for bedtime reading too and discreet enough not to annoy the missus. This is one of the first apps I install on every Rom change.

man this has boosted my battery life by 20%. so i saw people sharing apps that they recommend so i thought why not i do the same..if it helps others why not
thanks for posting
I liked it but found out that if set too low (as it is very efficient) it can be tricky to find the icon or anything else for that matter so eventually I stopped using it

You always get the icon on the top left hand corner. if you bring down the drop down menu you could access the app from there.

The Ghost of Frank B
My HTC Desire HD is draining battery over night and being very hot in the morning while battery only remaining under 5% even if it was on 100% at night!
It remains like 10% ~ 15% while i put on the airplane mode.
I have installed Jelly Time by RandomBlame R30
juice defender, advanced task killer, and some more apps to avoid battery draining!
UPDATE: I have downgraded my phone to ICS Sabsa Prime
removed advanced task killer because a fellow member suggested me to... still facing the problem!
Screen shots are added in this thread so that you guys can have a better idea of my problem.
UPDATE: I have added some more screen shots of better battery status as suggested.
Please help me out here... any help in this regard will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Mortal Eternity!
Install Better Battery Stats and check wakelocks and alarms.
Well i just installed sabsa prime version 11.0... battery draining problem in day time is gone... thanks to alireza babae but after installing this rom my set is booting randomly...
Please help!
Can we have a list of the apps you are using to save battery?
And uninstall Advanced Task Manager. Task managers do more bad than good.
Sent from my Nexus 4, powered by CyanogenMod via XDA Developers app.
uninstall advance task manager and download Battery Calibration from Play Store. Follow the instructions in that app and it may solve your problem

Er, what about BBS screen shots? I see your phone awake when the screens not on, so it's probably wakelocks or alarms. BBS will tell you which.

i have uploaded some screen shots of better battery status in the first post and adding some here... i need your suppot in this regard as i dont understand why you asked me to screen shots from this application specifically... dont know what are wakelocks or alarms and how to remove them if i am suffering to these locks...
More specifically, screenshots of kernel wake locks, partial wake locks (already there), and alarms. Select them from the top drop down box.
To use BBS: use it to diagnose what is keeping your phone from battery saving "deep sleep" mode. For example: you see Starting Alert Services in your partial wake locks? It's locking your phone awake more than it should. So what's going on with the app that uses it, which appears to be Contacts? Do you have apps installed or something running that uses it disproportionately?

Sir, i will upload more screen shots here that you asked for... thanks for all your help, can you/any one please suggest best rom to same battery?
I personally feel that choosing a ROM for battery life is not the most efficient method. There are many things that affect battery drain to a significant degree: backlight, GPS, WiFi, alarms, wakelocks, etc. I have not found that ROM choice affects battery drain nearly as much as other things (unless, of course, you're using a highly experimental or brand new ROM).
Hi All I am Posting my results, I need a few ppl who could help and see if this is going to help everyone or only me
And to the critics, I will be doing a screen on time (SOT, ppl are asking and not getting answered) test, I am as eager to fix this so if you would like me to run anything while the screen is on, please let me know
An hour ago i put brightness at 100 while battery was at 50% been browsing the net with chrome using mobile data and it dropped to about 10%. Much less heat than expected although brightness was limited to 84 at some point. Will do a 50 brightness test tomorrow from full charge but wont be touching the phone much
Steps to Follow to give me info
Hi Guys,
Had a bit of time, this is the info I need, hopefully I will get responses from a view e98x variants, even other LGs would be great but please specify the details of your phone.
Download Battery Doctor from the Play Store google dot com/store/apps/details?id=com.ijinshan.kbatterydoctor_en&hl=en
Get it running , opened, etc and then look at the app usage info (scroll down) for the last 24 hours (seen in screenshot attached)
When opened please send me the screenshot or the the list of draining APPS, I have hidden my top drainer that consumed 98% of my battery in the other attached screenshot. At the time of my screenshot I have not uploaded, it has used 34% of my battery and has been disabed for 19 hours. I cannot yet suggest the name or anyone to do anything with the service yet as I am still attempting to find out what breaks (so far nothing.)
I will send battery updates as far as I can.
Another Test
So the next thing I have done is charge full again, set the brightness to 50% and played Hearthstone for 3 Hours, I am personally pleased with the results as i could not achieve 3 Hours with the Phone before.
i get 3.5-4.5 hours screen from 100%
with [ROM][5.0.2]STOCK LOLLIPOP G.PRO V1.5 of bountyman334
with few modification mostly removing system apps
hello
Can you explain me what should I do to improve the battery life?
I never could have more than two hours of charge with brightness set to 100%.
sorry for my bad english

Can you follow post 2 and send me the details, The item I disabled eventually disabled my MTP and USB Tethering, as it doesnt bother me yet, I am yet to attempt tpo fix it. I would Highly recommend 30 - 60% brightness, anything more seems to not have a major impact on brightness, it just reduces battery life and cause heat, which reduces the maximum charge of the battery in future
here is my screenshot, hope it helps u!

Hi brunosp7, the app I expect to see is not listed, this is a good thing, however viewing the list, it appears that some apps remain open after use. do you have an app that keeps backround apps in check, something like this battery doctor or clean master?

right now I'm not using any app to stop background applications.
by the way, I think the application you want is not listed because the battery doctor app disabled many programs and services the first time I started.
