ive been having an unusually high cellstandby number and im wondering how i can reduce it, significantly. it constantly hovers around 45-49%. i have my data off and my update/synch off. any other suggestions? when i go to bed at night, i put the phone in sleep mode, in the morning my standby is still in the upper 40's. help/advice?
TIA.

Is it causing significant battery drain? If not, I wouldn't worry about it. When I was running OMGB, I had the same thing. No significant change in my battery drain.

no, my battery seems to last a good while. im not used to it being that high. ive tried tweeking settings but nothing seems to make it budge. Thanks for the response.
Cell standby is pretty much the cellular radio. If you're not noticing any significant battery drain, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Are you stock? Running any ROMs?
Incidentally, I just checked mine, and I'm running rmk's GingerSense. I've hardly done anything with my phone so far this morning, and cell standby was at 29% for me.

CM7; Tiamat 1.0.4. Nightly 31.
You could try a different ROM, but honestly, it's not worth it. Like I said, I was seeing similar when I was running OMGB (AOSP-based). No significant difference in battery life though either. Probably nothing to worry about.
Try toggling airplane mode. Worked on my old phone that always hung around 50% if I didn't do that after every reboot

its a known issue with cm7 and aosp roms. well, not really an issue, just something you see but battery life isnt affected. just ignore it.

You are thinking of time without signal. I do not believe he is referring to that.
But 49% doesn't really mean anything. It just means your phone hasn't been used much and therefore nothing else is using much battery. If your battery only goes down 5% overnight, then standby has only actually used 2.5% of your phone's battery, which is completely normal. If you tap on standby, and your time without signal is high, then you have an issue, but with this phone I highly doubt it will be.

Im getting some weird battery stuff, as well as the Android OS drain. If I restart my phone, once in a while It drops like 20-30%. i'll go from 46% to like 18%. I see the threads about slow draining, but mine seems to happen instantly sometimes (3 different times so far in a week), anyone have solutions? Got it from someone on ebay, can I still/should I RMA?
Someone posted a kernel fix in the international GSII forum, so we're either waiting for that to get ported over here or wait for samsung to release a fix. I have that same bug too. What percent r u getting on the Android OS? Mine is usually in the 60's.
Yeah I saw that thread, and I saw the 2 things causing it. Waiting for that fix I guess, hopefully it solves the big battery drops as well as the small draining. Mines pretty high, 30-50% I believe, and then cell reception takes 10-20% with LOS
That's alot better than mine. Although, I don't have that LOS problem. I'm running stock atm. Are u on a custom rom?
Running Starburst 1.5, stock was better for no LOS. But I like the customization on Starburst. Hopefully by the end of this week the kernel we be ported over.
Most likely a problem with the battery level algo and not an actual battery charge drop. It's probably showing the correct value after the reboot.
Using battery spy I was using like 12%-15% per hour, not even doing anything. Saw online that formating the SD card might help, just did, and now im using .8% per hour. The hell, something was scanning the SD card or something. Much better now, hopefully itll last 10-20 hours instead of 6 hours.
edit: so it went back up again. At .8% it will last 2 days+, but since the events keep taking the CPU, its draining it. I got it down to 4-8% by taking the SD card out. At least it will last a little longer. Cant wait for the fix, this baby will last days after.
Damn that sucks. I just formatted my card too cuz I was running out of options. Keep us updated tho.
so I think media scanner is draining, I downloaded rescan media root from android market and before I was draining at 12% per hour, but when I disable it with the app, it goes down to 5-6%. Anyone else try? Maybe thats something thats draining.
Oh btw have u tried turning off wifi? It only drained 6% after being off the charger for 9 hours. I havent touched the phone during that time span tho. Android os still in the 50s btw.

this is almost definitely correct. battery doesn't drop 15-20% because of reboot...the reading is wrong. Battery drivers have been bad on a few of the latest android phones. Just look at when your phone stays at 99% for the first 3 hrs of use each day...what, does it just get really inefficient in the afternoon because of food coma from lunch?

Trying now, seems to be charging faster too. I was mainly on wifi because cell standby was really high, keep getting LOS. But maybe I wont with wifi off now, and i'll see how battery does. ill keep you updated.
Still bad. Can only wait for the patches/fixes. 8 hours doing nothing almost. Sigh.

Hey man, I got one more tweak for u to try. I just rooted my phone w/ the latest zenomax kernel and Starburst 1.5. Download setcpu and create a profile for "screen off". Set it to 200-500mhz on demand. In theory, this should prevent 100% cpu utilization while the screen is off. I'm testing this myself atm, so I can't give u my battery stats yet.

Think I have the v3 version and 1.5 as well. I have setcpu set to 200-400 powersave. ive tried others and same. Suspend and events/0 keeping eating at the CPU. Thanks for the suggestions though.
figured i'd chime in here. i've had days where the battery was fine and days where the battery was absolute trash. it's happened on stock, and it's happened on root. but it almost always seems to coincide with LOS. the first picture is one of several instances where i've had pretty fast drain followed up by an instant dump in charge under normal use. it's strange how after the drop, it slowly works back up then levels off and drains normally. the 2nd pic is from today. i left my phone at home on accident when i went off to work, and when i returned, i had LOS and this battery stat. you can tell where i lost signal . the last pic is from yesterday while i had the phone at work all day and light use; a nice consistent drain.
FU battery drops and FML
Ok so i read all the posts in this thread and i understand theres a issue that effects the phone from even knowing what the battery % is. i had to post these though. i was at 47% then rebooted my phone. phone boots up and yehhh! woop woop 8% now mind you if you look at the graph it shows a nice constant cerve downward but steady because i was using my phone the entire time. now after the restart/batery drop of 40% i kept using the phone constantly but its funny how it took me over a hour of screen on to go from 8% to 5% !!!!! i bet to get from 5% to 1% it will take 2 more hours for sure. you can see the graph start to flatten out like its a super battery after the 40% drop because it didnt really drop to 8% !!! normally i wouldnt care since my phone battery last just as long, it just goes down really slow from 8%-1% but at 5% it auto dims screen and wont let me use my camera for the next 2-3 hours while i knock off the remaining "4%" of battery left. fml
Get Starburst v1.6. He removed DRM processes which should lower Android OS usage and thus battery draining. Plus with the LoStKernel, I haven't had any issues with losing signal since.
Also, use Titanium backup to remove running services that you don't need. I got rid of the stock email client, digital clock, media/social hub if you don't use those. They don't take up a lot of ram, but every little bit helps.
My battery life has improved after battery calibration. I suggest you calibrate if you didn't already so your battery usage graph may be more accurate. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the tips! I was wondering how you would calibrate the battery. Is it the same as wiping battery stats from CWM?
I just installed ICS a couple days ago and have noticed a dramatic decrease in battery life. I was able to get a full day without charging on Gingerbread, ~15+hrs or so. Now on ICS I am maybe only getting half a day. After 5-6hrs, the phone is about ready to die with any use. I was hoping it would get better after a few days but it doesn't look like it.
I have attached a screenshot of my usage this morning. I talked on the phone for about 5-10mins, and played some games for maybe 10 mins or so, sent a few e-mails, and did some light browsing. All pretty normal use for me. Before I would still be at 80+% still, down into the 50's right now.
Whats gpsd and why is it using so much?
The gpsd is a GPS like service on your phone. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Also, Did you calibrate your battery? That might help
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
Turn off gps until you really need to use it. It's a bug that keeps gps actively searching for a signal and that will drain your battery quick, as well as make your phone super hot.

How do I calibrate my battery?
There's no need to calibrate your battery, I did notice yesterday that GPS was on even after I turned it off, but that was after using Google Tracker for a jog. I simply restarted my phone and it was fixed, lets not forget that this is still in early development. Although I will say that now on my third day with this rom, the battery is getting better by the day! Good luck and Happy Flashing.

Yep keep your GPS off and your battery will improve dramatically. When it works, it's a major battery drainer. We'll need to wait for a build further down the road for a fix.
The answer to your question essentially is, you don't. This phone has an auto-calibrating fuel gauge that makes previous methods of battery calibration (wiping battery stats or using the battery calibration app) useless.
For the one "possible" way to calibrate the battery on this phone, see this ...

But I don't think this is you issue. Turn off GPS for now and you'll be good to go.

how long have you had the ROM flashed? it may take couple of days to have it settled into the new system/software. give it couple of days with the same cycle of usuage/charging times.

I had the same problem but after a quick reboot it stopped, and even with the gps off the 3G/4G will still show location just no navigation.
Hell no BS i get 4 MAXXXXX hours with the fb17
On CM9 3.1 with Steady's FB15 Kernel and the FB15 modem I get about 1/3 to 1/2 of my previous battery life. The estimated mAh draw is also in that neighborhood.
From what I can tell it's mostly low level stuff that is causing the drain, stuff in the kernel and Trebuchet launcher. Exactly what I expect from early, un-optimized code. With time I fully expect that I will my old battery life if not better as developers get the time to work the bugs out.
I can't discount that some of my apps are partially incompatible with ICS and causing wonkiness as well. It also doesn't help that I enjoy ICS so much that I can't stop playing with it.
So I am running UVDL|6 for some time now which works good (not great but good) and this morning I woke up to find my battery completely dead. When I went to sleep it was at a decent 55% now I highly doubt that without any use the battery just drops to 0%, So checked my battery stats and it says Android System at 70% use.. which is pretty high for an idle phone. Any ideas? Or any software I can use to pull out the culprit because Android System has so many subsets to it that it makes it really hard to pin point what causes it.
You will have to reproduce the problem, but try GSam Battery Monitor.

I think he means you need to put your phone in the same spot when you go to bed and see if it does it again. No sense in trying to fix a one time problem.
Battery stats were gone when you started the phone up I'm assuming. Good reception where you placed it?

Been happening to me on LI7 lately. Originally it was great on battery life, then all of a sudden I started getting insane battery drain from the Android System. I haven't really taken the time to diagnose it yet, but I need to. It gets really hot randomly sometimes then cools down and the battery just starts draining away really fast.
I saw someone mention deleting or renaming gsiff_daemon in /system/bin to solve this.
Theres a thread dedicated to the subject as well, though ive yet to actually go through it.
Anyway give that a shot and lets all hope they Completely fixed the battery issues in the final release! (Its not all from one thing in my experience with the leaks, but from multiple issues)

Ill add my stock experience for reference as well as if anyone has a fix. I'm pretty happy with battery life coming from a Vibrant but what I notice is that usually there is minimal drain during the night ,however if I get an SMS the drain will be maximal.Like 30/40% Almost like the screen went on and never shut off but it doesn't seem to be the case. This is on the stock messenger App. If I don't get an SMS it will usually drain from like 99% to 96% roughly. Didn't mean to threadjack OP.

Have you tried running Better Battery Stats to see why the phone isn't sleeping?
Yeah battery stats were probably from when I turned the phone back on...
So I bought my ATT GS3 out in Los Angeles this summer and then I returned to New Jersey to find that I have horrible battery life. It was not right away so this could be completely unrelated. As of right now my phone is at 75% and I let it drain while i was sleeping for 10.5 hours. I have tried several different roms which are usually good the first two days and then after that the battery life is bad again. I thought it may be some application I have installed so I removed a few of the ones I remembered downloading since I got back to NJ. I also updated to the latest radio ending in H9 because I was two behind when I checked. I have attached some battery information below. Any help anyone could provide would be great. I have tried Juice Defender which did save some battery life but it also caused a problem where I couldn't use the internet for 10 seconds after I wake the phone.

Just another observation. Battery tends to drain faster if you leave it in your pocket. If you flash a rom, you might have to calibrate the battery stats. I only lose 1% every 2 hours overnight if I leave it on a cold surface.

So I have tried a few different roms and I'm still not happy with the battery life. I calibrate the battery after every rom installed and I usually keep that rom for atleast 2 days to test it. Right now I'm on AOKP. If the phone is on standby whats the general %/hr? When I go to sleep my phone drops from 92%-75% for about 10-11 hours (on desk at temp 60F). By Apocalypse487's response I should only see a drop of 5-6 % over night when I see 17%. Am I supposed to me losing this much battery life over night? To me I feel like I barely use my phone. Today wasn't too bad with 1 hr with screen on and about 1 hr in calls. I made it about 1 day 1 hour 36min on battery. My phone was sleeping for about 23.5 hours. Is this the typical battery life or is something wrong with mine? Tonight I'm going to try juicedefender and see if that helps.

I'm using ParanoidAndroid based off of CM10. Version 2.16 of PA gave me the best battery life. Try that. Certain Roms have better battery management, but that probably depends on the kernel. PA uses stock.

I'll give ParanoidAndroid a try and see what that does. So Juicedefender ended up making it so I only lost 1% over 9 hours. Thats pretty good. Way better than I wanted. So what could be draining the power over night. Is it because my data is on all the time but shut off when using Juicedefender?
I use Trinue 2, and I use an app called Go Power Master.
In GPM you can setup options that will turn off mobile data/gps/wifi when the screen is turned off, will automatically turn them back on when the screen is back on.
Those things little things I find can make a big difference for the battery to last throughout the day.

It's as Sianspheric says, common things like gps, data, and wifi uses power. I just started using Juicedefender since my friend told me it helps. Also download battery calibration. It's a root only app. Don't let your device discharge completely. It's bad for Lithium Ion batteries. That will clear out any bad data from Samsung.

On my E4GT, this has happened on multiple roms and persists through wiping battery stats. Is my battery drops very fast, just 30% in ~20 minutes this morning listening to music. But then while it sits in my pocket, asleep, the battery crawls up from ~70 back up to ~90 over the course of a half-hour or so. How can I fix it or is my battery just starting to go? Also after a reboot the battery will drop like 30-40%, then slowly crawl back up.
Sounds like the battery is either on its way out (check for bulges) or just very poorly calibrated. One of my batteries did the slowly crawling up thing even when it was brand new.

Okay, well, since wiping battery stats did not help. I felt it and can't really tell if it's swelling, I think it may be a little. Is turning it off all the way, then charge without stopping the charge the only way to calibrate it?

To check for swelling lay battery on table.. Spin.. (both sides) if it spins like a top.. It's bad. Easiest way to tell, and not an uncommon problem.
Wiping battery stats does nothing. This phone automatically wipes battery stats at 100% charge.

This has to do with the way ICS reads you battery %. If it is going up on it's own then the % it tells you is just wrong. There is not much you can do to fix it except don't flash things all the time. It usually will happen when you are flashing things.
The battery being bad is also an option but I have never seen it go up on it's own when the battery is bad.

This has to do with the way ICS reads you battery %. If it is going up on it's own then the % it tells you is just wrong. There is not much you can do to fix it except don't flash things all the time. It usually will happen when you are flashing things.
