Dramastic drop in battery only when screen on? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so today I noticed I had my phone on but screen off for about 6 hours only dropped about 15 percent. But then I used my phone for about an hour surfing/texting/XDA and it dropped almost 20% in just an hour? Idk this could be normal just seems like a lot for just an hour. How much do you guys lose with an hour of the screen on?
Also I do have setcpu to the lowest setting when screen off, but even when its screens on its not overclocked and is set to conservative. And I'm running miui..

I would turn off set cpu and let it stablize and check.

Well of course you are going to use up more battery when you are actually using the phone than when it's just sitting idle.
Think of it this way..... if your car is just sitting and idling, it barely uses any gas. If you are driving, it uses more gas.

What build of MIUI are you running? There is no reason why you should lose 15% in 6 hours if the phone is just idle. I'm on 1.1.28 with the prepackaged kernel, not using any screen off profiles with setCPU and mine loses 0-1% over the course of say 8 hours if the phone is not used.

I'm on 1.14 I was going to update to 1.24 bc they just released the front camera fix.. It has the Savage sbc kernal on it I think. So do u think if i update to 1.24 it'll help? I don't really want 1.28 bc u lose theme manager.. thanks

It's worth a shot, just make sure to do a full wipe, run calk's format all script before flashing. I'm skipping 1.2.4, probably going to wait for a significant release before I update, 1.1.28 has been the best of all of them for me. And my theme manager works just fine with 1.1.28.

Here. It formats everything (boot, cache, data and system partitions), good to use before you flash a new ROM, gives you a nice clean install. Flash it from recovery and then flash your ROM right after.

Nvm....tired

i second that.... i lost 0 percent in a hour and a half and i sent like 10 texts.

you could also try (after using the formatALL.zip) calibrating the battery. I drain the battery all the way then I charge it all the way to 100% and then go to recovery and wipe battery stats and then I use the phone normally and drain it completely. I usually do that whenever I flash a new kernel. Right now I'm using one of the stable savaged-zen kernels and I average about 20-24 hours of use with moderate-heavy use.

Battery life with Myn Twopointtwo sucked. Need help so i can switch back

I used the stock kernel. I had a fresh install and left it there for 4 and a half hours and it hit 22%. Anyone using it mind throwing some tips or tricks out there. Maybe a reccomended kernel.

What's your usage like?
Games?
Email (push)?
How much text messaging?
How much for voice calls?
There are many obvious options to extend battery life. I had light usage and am at 1 day and 10 hours with 13% remaining using netarchy 4.3.2 cfs-havs-more-nosbc.

Honestly, the stock HTC 15 kernel sucks for me on any rom. I get terrible bettery life with it. Also, when I use RLS5, if I'm on the 1.90 PRI I will get a constant wake lock. Do you have a wake lock going on? Perhaps you have a run a way app or something. I get good battery life with RLS5 using any netarchy kernel without undervolting or havs, pretty much, probably 10-12 hours of moderate use and easily 20 hours on light use (busy days at work with no time to play, it would just sleep and sleep)

Mostly texting and data is what I do on my moderate usage and I get 12-15 hours. Switch to a netarchy kernel and perhaps downgrade your PRI (watch out, this is where bricking can occur).

Is it me or what? I see everybody talking about Gingerbread roms, saying the're fast and smooth,etc. But after flashing like 15 different roms from different builds I always find they lag or leak too much RAM. I always go back to SRF 1.2. Can anyone give me details?

CM7 is my current daily driver, as long as you can live without being able to dial 911 and can live without 4g (both not really a concern for me)
My other choices that worked very well is ACS ICS 5.5, Marcusant Revival v1 and Urban Precision. All very snappy when combined with the latest Samurai Kernel.
Are you doing a full wipe before flashing? Also, rumor has it, wiping your SD card and reformatting it has been very helpful as well, although, I have yet to have the need to do that.
Don't know what you mean. I have never found evidence of any RAM leak. Check the task killer of Memory Booster Lite to see all the garbage using your memory. Add to that programs filling caches and not giving that back when closed and I always have 170MB free RAM. I have no lag on Legendary.

I've had pretty good luck with the SensiSimple
I'm using Advance Task Killer. I've read many times that it is no good for froyo and gingerbread but it has always made my phone faster.
At first I have like 135mb free approx. But after 1 hour of use it goes down to 95mb or less and never go back. And yes, I always wipe all data, cache and davlik cache 3 times before installing any ROM.

If you use the browser it caches all your pages and stores them in memory. I have found that an hour or so later it gives back some of that memory but not all of it. ATK is not made for GB. Get Memory Booster Lite and see where that 40MB is going. There are no "leaks" just poorly written apps.

Well, I tried SleeperROM and Revival(for the 2nd time) and insted of ATK I used Memory Booster. I had a better experience than before but SRF1.2 smoothness and battery life is still better. What's the difference? Just CRT ON/OFF and overscroll? Thanks anyway guys!!!

Gingerbread incorporates video acceleration to utilize the hardware better for one thing.
I'm running Thunderhawk 3.2 with ShadowKernel and my phone is the best it has ever been. Battery life is 24h+ with 3h screen on time (stock battery), and is very responsive.
I am running Supercharger Update9 RC4 Super 768hp with the home locked in memory (no redraws), this is not great for multi-tasking, but it ensures that my phone will be as responsive as possible every time I pick it up.
I am also undervolting using Tegrak as my phone will undervolt far more using Tegrak compared to Voltage Control which results in better battery life.
When set up right GB can be far more responsive than Froyo could ever be, and that has a lot to do with the GPU acceleration some parts of the UI takes advantage of.

oops noob double post
I just posted the latest update to my rom.
Here's some battery stats I've achieved on it.
When in my pocket, my phone loses under 1% an an hour. It does phenomenally well when I'm using it heavily.
don't know if this is right thread to ask, but with some builds I have the option in the add email account, to select corporate email. Right know I'm on cm7 and have the option but thinking of going back to legendary. Wondering if there is a apk or some way of getting that as a add on, this is the only wat i have gotten my work email to work on my phone...thanks
The latest MTD MarcusantROM is my goto ROM now.

Take a look at these battery stats: all of a sudden, my battery life is crap!

So, I've been using CleanGB 1.1.2 for a few weeks, and I tried flashing a cm7 rom. Didn't like how much issues I was having, so I restored my old CleanGB rom. Ever since, my battery life is pathetic. I have an extended battery, usually charge it from 40% to 100% while I sleep. Now, its always charging because it dies so fast.
Take a look at the links, anyone have any answers? Thank you!

Try wiping battery stats....
If you don't know how the process works you can look at Qbking77's video on it- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbYVv4nCveM
Percentages don't tell us anything. What is your display on time? What is listed in running services? How much deep sleep is your phone getting? These are all that matter, not the battery screenies.
If you have 30 minutes screen on time with high intensity and are syncing something in a poor signal area that percentage is typical. If your phone is just sitting there and it drops that much an hour later then there is an errant app not closing.
Wiping battery stats does nothing... id recommend follow kenny's advice here, we can't really help you if you don't help us help you =].

Problem is clear, all stats are fine except android system and display,no way is display that low it should be at least 60% the higher the better as it uses the most battery out of the lost batt, android system is way to high and I don't think there is a way to check what exactly it is, I would say flash a new rom.I had abnormally high cell standby and the other cell think I forgot the name haha, flashed a new rom (reaper 2.2.2) and I've had normal stats with display using the most. Get cpuspy battery monitor widget and spareparts and analyse your batt

They preload part of their code so that they open quicker when you want them. You can either use Autostarts to stop them or get paid version of Titanium Backup and freeze them until you want to use them or uninstall them.

That is just a misreport. It groups everything the phone does (basically being on except deep sleep) into Android System. The important stat is Display time.

JUGG ROM

Okay, so i just installed JUgg rom for the first time on my phone.. hoping that it will increase my battery life and everything. But it seems the same to me ..The battery is still dying quick as usual. I got my auto brightness/4g on most of the time and also is there anyway to get back the swype keyboard because the keyboard that comes with this ROM is crappy. I tried the swype beta and it doesn't seem to let me install. It says "problem parsing the package"
So like ... what can i do? I uninstalled all the progarms i don't need off Tita Backup.
Plus the bloater doesn't seem to turn on for me .. It lists my T-Mobile SGS2 and everything .. but when i click on it.. nothing pops up and says XML ERROR or something.

Not to knock Juggs, its a great rom for gaming and whatnot but I find I get tons more battery life out of TDJ's Digital Warfare 2.7 and SetCPU - I run my CPU with a screen off profile to run bare minimum when not in use.. Insane battery life..
You should give it a try.
I'm a pretty heavy user and get about 19 hours on a bad day until I hit 10% on good day it'll go 24 hours + Running beast mod 4.2 and set cpu under clocked 756 max 384 min governor on lagfree and using juice defender. Runs super smooth too.

Synergy Kernel? How do you run jug with a kernel ? Instructions please
If I'm not mistaken, Juggs is more about power. I could get 15 hours+ out of it on a normal use day but if I played games quite a bit or stayed on wifi for long periods it would go under 10 hours on a full charge. I'd say, if it's battery you're looking for, Juggs isn't for you. It's a great ROM but again, it's more about making your phone powerful and less about conserving the batt.
Go to the android development section and look for a thread that says synergy kernel. You are going to download it and just how you installed jug through cwm you'll do the same with the kernel. Before hand wipe cache and dalvik cache which you find under advanced. Then flash the kernel. Then wipe both caches again and reboot.

[Q] battery drain problem JB back to stock.

i updated to jellybean LI8 from stock t999 LH2 version, but because of super heavy battery drain i flashed it back to LH2 thru odin.
However i still get same heavy battery drain. i use up 10% every 1 hr just with screen on. before i used up about 3~5% for 1 hr.
i was able to get about 14~16hrs with normal use before, but now i dont think i can even get 10hrs.
it seems that the sim card area gets hot whenever the screen is on, and cools down when off. before flashing my phone was never heated
unless i was playing heavy graphic games..is there a way to completely flash the system files? or to fix this problem...pls help. thanks
Your numbers don't make sense. Need a screenshot.

yes the screen % is fine so i dont know where its draining the battery...
i think something wrong with system file because my phone really didnt get warm just from having the screen on.
is the method i reverted to ics correct? or is there another way to completly reset/overwrite my phone back to stock?
If your phone is working, your method wasn't incorrect. If you flashed the stock firmware through Odin, that's as virgin as it gets.
Battery Info and KakaoTalk are obvious culprits. Tell me about your wifi situation. Are you connected to a wifi network?
yeah usually i leave wifi and kakao talk on most of the day but it doesnt drain battery this fast...it just messed it up after the jellybean update., it was 100% this morning, 4 hours and now i got 60%. usually i would probably still have around 85%+
I'm in xquizit v26 and observed that I'm not getting a deep sleep and the battery drain in less than 5 hours. I reflash the rom with full wipe and still have the same issue. I step back and investigate what cause this problem. It seems that when I flashed the kitchen v6 with open vpn cause not to have a deep sleep. With out the open vpn I was able to get a deep sleep. On the first cycle I was able to get the 15hrs battery life. I will continue to observe this because the battery behavior can only be observed after 3 days.
I tried to post this in the ROM section but XDA wont allow it because I only have less than 10 post.

I tried to post this in the ROM section but XDA wont allow it because I only have less than 10 post.

You should pm this to wildchld. As far as i can remember this is the first ive heard of it and maybe the same for others.
Search the thread first to see if anyone else has reported. If not or if you think you have information to add shoot him a quick pm.
If you dont want to let me know and ill get the info to him so we can test it out.
Thanks man!

yeah usually i leave wifi and kakao talk on most of the day but it doesnt drain battery this fast...it just messed it up after the jellybean update., it was 100% this morning, 4 hours and now i got 60%. usually i would probably still have around 85%+

If you can go without, try uninstalling those two apps and see if it settles at all. Also get cpuspy to see how often the phone goes into deep sleep.

okay so i jus instaled the cpuspy and saw that theres a lot of deepsleep so i guess theres no problem..?
and i think its not the app but the thing with screen. whenever the screen turns on, it gets hot and the batt uses alot..
i tried re-flashing using odin while ago but still the same.
I would suggest flashing wildchlds XquiziT or DJintrigues Frosty JB. They both have done very good jobs at getting more out of your battery while still remaining stable. Being on the full stock leak i doubt you will easily find a way to acceptable battery life. At full stock i kind of remember LI8 being one of the worst for battery.
There are actually multiple causes, some depend on how you use the phone.
Another thing you can do to help hunt it down is get Better Battery Stats.
Also in Settings > Dev Options check show cpu usage and itll tell you what processes are using the processor in real time. You will likely see 2 or more that seem to stay at the top of the list.

i checked the XquiziT's ROM and i think lots of people are saying the battery problem was solved so mayb ill try it with this one, however when i went over the posts it seemd that theres prob with the kitchen? thingy and they took it down. is it possible to jus flash the XquiziT Rom without the kitchen features?
Yes you can flash rom without kitchen. Hes actually working on a new release hoping for today I believe.
Kitchen was taken down due to possible bricks when using wallet and mobile odin.
Also, battery problems are not 100% solved in either rom but are close!

hey thanks for the replys...
ive tried to flash the v26 through recovery boot menu but it says E:verification error. i think its because i flashed back stock by odin, how can i solv this problem?
Have you reinstalled twrp or cwm? Stock recovery wont flash that.

Remove the battery for 5 min...and then check for the drain. Mine fixed itself up this way.
okay so i installed twrp and did the install but still same prob with the heating battery lose. i will try few more wipeout+install and the battery takeout thing too and post up
