Extended battery lasting only a day

I have a 2800mah yoobao battery and its only lasting me about 18-20 hours...but a guy on youtube shows hes easily getting 2-3 days on his phone. I moderately use this phone with black backround...wifi enabled gps bluetooth and everything else i can disabled...and i have app killer and juice defender why is this battery not lasting long

Well first those ebay 2800mah batterys are more like 2100-2500mah. Second that guy on youtube did some black screen tricks and some other things to get 3 days. I wouldnt use any app managment programs unless you have 10 things that want to startup,and juice defender just isnt a good way to save battery unless you always have a bad signal,when you have a great signal very little battery life is used by the radio.
But I just posted some great numbers using the seido 3300mah battery,and I actually used this phone plenty during the tests...

Like ecooce mentioned, those batteries aren't generally as good as they claim. But I can't answer your question until you answer a few more to the best of you ability:
1. Are you using a ROM? What ROM?
2. The "guy" on youtube was definitely using a ROM, what ROM was he using?
3. How long does your phone last on your stock Samsung 1500 mah battery, for reference?
4. How many and which widgets do you use?
5. Do you have poor signal and frequent roaming? Do you use Roam Control to rectify the constant signal searching?
6. Is your task killer an auto killer?
Answer me, and I'll answer you

well im not using a rom... i want to try to find the best rom for a extended battery. and i dont use any widgets just a clock one. i get about 10-12 hours on the regular battery if im lucky...im gettin about 18-20 on this one...i jus think i could get more

and yes i have roam control and i use task killer

OK, this is simple math...1500mAh battery is stock, you get 10-12 hours. 2800 mAh battery is only 87% higher which equals 18-20 hours. This is only true if it is a true 2800 mAh battery...so count your blessings.

Well you can try the Syndicate Rom Frozen I'm on, it's referenced in my signature. Only use your task killer manually. On auto-kill it will use battery to constantly run, and will kill services which immediately restart anyway. I use Advanced Task Killer manually by its widget, which, combined with my Power Control widget, are the only two widgets I have confirmed are not battery drains. This includes Pandora, Music player, Wifi Tether , Tesla Flashlight, and ES Task Manager widgets.
Moving on, Low brightness when possible, Google Sync off, unnecessary apps found to be running in the background removed. Google Wifi and GPS locations off, you want none of that. DRM and SNS services frozen by Titanium Pro or MyBackup Pro if unneeded (yes those apps are not free, but worth it!). Mostly black wallpapers use less power due to the nature of Super AMOLED screens (the pixels are effectively off when black). Do not use Juice Defender. VisionKernel 1.1 may be helpful. Do not use setcpu, stick with the Dev's stock settings, I'm sure you'll be happy :-D.
If I think of any major steps I've taken that I'm forgetting I'll be back lol. I think I may end up making a new thread on this with a list of my steps and setup.

Well I'm that guy on youtube abd I believe I at that time I was on syadicateROM Froyo with a 1.3Mhz OC'd Kernal...now what saves on most of my battery life is underclocking while the screen is off to a max speed of only 600mhz...since about 75% of the time your screen is off...those numbers were for about the 1st 3 months with the battery....now I'm averaging from at least 30 hours to around 50 sometimes 60...but no more 3+ day stretches...and I make sure to condition my battery on a regular basis...because I did go through a major sump in performance jut like you are with around only 18 or so hours...a few (like 3) calibrations got me right back up to where I was at with hours unplugged....I think I talked about this in one of my video's...hope this helps fellas

When I switched to ec05, my battery life went to crap. I now have the yoobao 2800 and with syndicate frozen and a few tweaks I now get around 24 hours moderate to heavy usage. 48 hours or more with light/idle usage.
On the other hand I'm lucky to get 8 hours out of my stock battery with light usage. I can literally sit and watch the srf battery meter draining every minute the screen is on. I'm thinking my stock battery may have gone bad.
The extended battery makes my phone huge. But theres nothing better than being at a conference talking on the phone constantly and still having 30% left at the end of the evening. While all the other evo's n blackberries n such are crying that their phones are dying by happy hour...

I'm not a heavy user, but I regularly get 30+ hours with 2.5 - 3 hours of screen on time off of a 1500MAH battery using SRF frozen.
You could have one of several issues:
1. Gallery app sensor issue.
2. Airplane toggle issue
3. phone not sleeping properly.
Any of them can severely impact battery life. If you look at your screen on time and you are regualrly at 2-3 hours screen on time in 12 hours then that is about right I would say.

I am a light to medium user and I get 40-55 hours of life out of my extended grant you my back ground is mostly black. Only widget I run is sense analog glass clock which pulls the weather every 15 minutes, I have task killer auto kill on, set cpu set to ondemand 10000 and 1000 which I believe is stock I was playing with it for a few still am (I just modified this to 13000 - 1000 set to performance so stay tuned for a update), Avg, wifi is usually on i forget to shut it off and gps is always on. I am using Frozen 1.1 with Vision kernal 1.1. Hope this helps. Don't forget to calibrate your battery I found that it does help to let it drain fully once after the calibration.
**********************************
Update well I have been testing since I first posted I am now getting about 18-24 hours but my usage has gone way up to high like 200 to 400 txt a day plus now using winamp cuz my music player died. Playing music for over 2 hours a day also poor signal strength at home so always have wifi on. Not sure what modem I am using not sure how to find that out either. Also my Setcpu is set to 1300 - 100 ondemand it didn't like having any other setting. I also turned journaling on which might not help the battery life.

EC05 suck your battery? Flash the EB13 modem. http://k0nane.info/rom/acs-eb13-modem.tar

I have this same battery and I have google and AOL email syncing every 30minutes, brightness on full, 6-7 widgets, 3 of which run constantly, and usually have pandora running most of the day, spotty signal, and data on all day...
I get 52-58 hours every charge with all this running, and an average of 4-6hours screen on time...
Also, when I put it on the charger i never let my battery get below 12% usually it goes back on after 55hours @ 16-21% left
Maybe I am lucky?
Running AOSP rom

ur lucky...cuz i have had this battery for about 2 weeks now and im starting to get about 24-26 hours of life...maybe the battery needs to be broken in cuz its increasing

settings to enable

anyone come up with a list to enable/disable to improve battery?

I think the battery is already pretty phenomenal.

Stop using the light and orientation sensors. So turn off auto-rotate and don't use auto-screen brightness. Also use wifi when possible; 3g will consume more power if your signal is weak.

Batter
It is not good for me either. I am loosing about 15% a hour with the screen off and not even using it. If I use the phone i can just watch it fall about 1% every 5 min. I don't get it. the only thing i have in the background running is weather, twitter and gmail. That is it nothing else. The Android OS sits about 86% use in the batter use screen. I have no idea what is causing this. Any help would be great.

Run the phone down completely, to the point where it shuts off. Then charge until the led turns blue(fully charged), then turn it on. I'll screenshot my battery status tonight.

Yes it is always posted that high. I have also already tried the suggestion of completely draining the battery and charging to 100% twice now. Doesn't seem to help. This is not my first android phone so I have tried all the typical turn stuff off. I started with the hero and then went to the evo. Then jumped to verizon for thunderbold and now back on sprint for this phone obviously. So far this is the worst battery life I have had yet. Seeing what you guys are getting though gives me hope.
I have tried using spareparts to get more battery information but get a force close when trying to do that.

Man I know that battery results range pretty wildly, but I'm averaging 10% loss per 2 hours.
On launch day I was on it from about 3:30pm until about 10pm and only lost about 40%. And when I say on it, I bet the screen on time was 95% of that time.
So far, the battery life is one of my favorite things about this phone. First time I've felt comfortable enough to run a live wallpaper.

You are lucky then, If i use the phone I will loose 40% in about 2 hours no problem. Also if you are loosing about 5% an hour that will only give you about 20 hours total before your dead. I see people reporting they are getting over a day. Just don't see how. Are they just not using their phone at all.

You SHOULD always when you get a new battery fully Drain it and then fully charge the battery with the device OFF. Thats what I did with my phone. I kept using it once I got it, it lasted around 5 hours before the phone shut off during a phone call. then when I plugged it in to charge, I plugged it in and did not turn it on and waited till it fully charged with the Blue Light. I dont know about the normal thing now adays with lithium ion batteries but you were always warned in the packaging to let your battery fully cyle its first cycle with no use at all. The cells in the batteries have a memory type of design and if you dont fully charge the battery you can prevent it from knowing its full capacity.
Now I dont know if this is true anymore with the new battery production of the manufacturers now may power cycle the batteries before they seal the whole package so the customers dont have to do it. Maybe why when you get your device the battery is around 50% now like mine came. I remember older devices you could not use your device until you fully charged the battery the first time.
About Screen Brightness, I learned from a Epic user that the best way to conserve battry usage was to always keep your Screen Brightness at 10% (Gotta love the Touchwiz Brightness Changing with the Top Notification bar, this device will not show the slider bar like Touchwiz 3.0 on the Epic but IT STILL WORKS!!!!). I have noticed that at the lowest brightness setting I can still see everything vividly enough to work with it and im getting over 24 hours with moderate normal usage (like only 1-3 5-10 minute phone calls, surfing the net, surfing for new apps) This is my first android phone. I also have had 4G turned off and Wifi off all this time as I have no way to access those right now. I also have GPS turned off because I havent needed to use it yet. I pretty much have everything but Basic needs turned on besides all the Factory default presets. I also Turned my screen mode to DYNAMIC, which seems to show more vivid colors like I use on my Samsung TV for my computer usage.
Now I turned off Live wallpaper and im using one of the preinstall basic Grey ones (the one with the asfault looking spot light) (I have been trying to hit the crazy benchmarks people are getting trying to find out why I am not getting the 93+mflops mine keeps hitting 80's) So I dont know what heavy usage is doing to my phone.
but then again this is only under 48 hours of ownage. My first full night off the charger was 1 day and 3hours before it said I was 5% battery life and I plugged it in.

My - Battery Sucks -

I have to charge it twice a day, and my use is for only couple of hours talking and few browsing.
I tried that with stock as well as
[ROM] cwm-Phantom-X-
is anyone else also experiencing the same?

a few hours being like 10 hours straight talking?

You're crazy. This battery is the best I've seen in a long time.

im getting 12 hours with normal use and 8-9hours with very very heavy use(basically on my phone all day non stop)

I can drain a battery in 6 hours or less. I can't make it through a 8 hour work day without charging it. I guess you guys that go 12+ hours on a charge aren't power users. I tried every rom and kernel and my results are exactly the same.

Maybe the people who are complaining about battery life came from a flip phone or a blackberry. As far as smartphones go, this is the best you'll find for the features and enormous screen we have. Don't believe me then get an Amaze, Sensation, myTouch 4g Slide or G2x.

I dont know bout anyone else... but the only battery problems ive experienced is the fact that ive become so damn lazy on keeping the phone charged.
The battery lasts so long that i forget to charge it, and then i run out of battery

I'm a heavy user literally all I do is watch 1080p movies and plays games on my phone. I get twelve to fourteen hours every day. I also get at least a text every fifteen minutes if not more. Maybe the developers didn't remove career ciq which bogs down performance and drain the battery. You can also try a different kernel.

don't forget that in areas where you have crappy signal, you phone pumps up the power to try and compensate. you may notice your phone heating up in your pocket too. If you have no signal at all, i weep for your battery life.
go into airplane mode to save juice.

I too get 24 hours or more from light to moderate use with juggernaut.
Heavy use still nets me at least 10 hours. Although I toggle things off if I remember and don't need them. Like wifi, data, auto bright, sync, etc. although WAY lead important with this phone than it was with vibrant running cm7.

Why don't you try adding another core to your G2 and see if you can even get 6+ hours!!!
Cmon man, this is a dual core phone...it's just common sense that it will use twice as much battery power to get it to run smoothly.
But honestly, I was able to get 21hrs out of a full charge. With heavy use but i had it UC'd @ 1.2max and 192min. Still ran pretty smooth tho.

I get about 18 to 20 hours from a full charge. Stock. Non-rooted, and no modifications of any kind. I have all my apps auto-sync every 4 hours, and my usual display "on time" is around 4 to 5 hours. Here are some screen shots. This is the best battery life I ever had.

Just to add. My brightness is at 40%

is it better to use autobrightness on our device or a set brightness setting to save battery?

I'd say set it to certain level. Having the phone constantly adjust I would think would use more battery.

[Q] Battery Life after Blu Kuban

Hey all,
I recently put Blu Kuban on my phone and I'm loving the look and feel, but I'm having REALLY bad battery life. I couldn't get through the day with only a little use. I download the battery calibration app and tried that. Its also been about 4 days since I flashed the new ROM. Anymore suggestions? I bought an extended battery at 3800 mAh and I'm getting less than a day with the new ROM. Before the update I was getting at least a day and a half with MUCH more usage.
So long story short, BAD battery life. Any suggestions? If I cant get this figured out, I'm going to have to go back to stock.
Thanks in advance.

Hi. I've noticed you posted two separate threads relating to RUJELUS' Blu Kuban ROM. I would suggest you ask in his thread if you haven't already due to the fact that he may offer more assistance.
However, there are many different battery solutions. The problem is, if you were previously running Stock Gingerbread, you must get used to the fact that until Kernel source drops, battery life will not be as good on ICS as it is on GB.
To address your ICS battery problems, I suggest you turn here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1668853
Also, if possible, it would be nice to see your battery stats. Take screenshots and post them up here.

I would definitely post in the thread if xda would let me. I tried because I had that thought originally and because I don't have 10 posts yet it wouldn't let me post in the thread. I will post battery pictures tomorrow but its pretty much saying like 36% android OS, 20% display at one hour of use.
Thanks for the help so far guys. I checked out the first link and changed a few things. Hopefully it helps.

Still rocking Gingerbread ;p

How old is your battery?
How old is your phone?
How much do you have running in the background?
Do you keep WiFi on at all times (so that it might be searching for signals constantly)?
Use the apps listed above to try and get an idea of what could be causing the drain.
Hopefully it will improve so you can fully enjoy the ROM.

My phone was purchased in October. My battery is about 2 weeks old. I don't believe i have anything but gmail sync in the background. However, I'm not used to all apps I used staying open after I use them so I've been kinda bad about closing them. Is there something I can change so this goes back to closing most things after I press the back button. I do not keep WiFi on.
My extended battery got about 18 hours and was at 15%. I slept for 11 hours last night with nothing on. I used facebook for 15 minutes, just responding to a post and scrolling through messages and battery dropped at least 10% if not more. Granted, I was trying to download the update but doing that for 10 minutes dropped my battery over 20%. I'm very concerned.

I essentially didn't use my phone for half the day. I can't expect with a battery double the size to get 12 hours of light use?

are you on the latest build? Im on 1.0.4.1 and my battery is pretty solid, Id say give it a few days. are trying different modems?

I experienced the exact same thing on that rom. It is definitely one of my favorite roms but I would get half the life that I would on the others I tried.
Were you having issues with battery at all before you flashed the Blu Kuban?
I'm running Blazer ICS now and getting almost as good of battery life as I had on Gingerbread.

So here is my screenshot. In next post ill type how long each process was running.

1. You're addicted to Facebook lol
2. Your signal seems very low...could be your phone is running up its battery trying to get signal
3. What are your wifi settings? Use one band only and leave sleep mode "always"
4. What is the brightness on your screen? Set it lower and unselect auto adjust
5. Sync can kill your battery, either remove some things from sync (like Facebook) or remove them all and only sync manually

Wow, that is incredible!
You slept 11 hours? I have not gotten that much sleep in years!
In all seriousness, I have recently gone back to Blu Kuban and the battery life will get better after at least two full charge cycles. I am currently at 9 hours and 75% remaining. I am in a low signal area and keep data off and use wifif when available. I do use Juice Defender to automatically turn wifi off when the screen is off, so when I am not using my phone, I can still receive calls and SMS.

My battery life on Blu Kuban is really good... been getting like 25-30 hours for the past couple of days. One thing that you can do to maximize battery life is turn off haptic feedback and also turn off pulse notifications. Pulse keeps your phone from entering Deep Sleep and haptic feedback also uses a lot of unnecessary battery.

I found out what my problem was. My extended battery has gone to ****. I took my extended battery out yesterday and put in my standard battery and it is running better than the extended battery. What is crazy is that I replaced my stock battery because it was running poorly and not getting good life. Therefore my 3600mAh battery is running worse than a BAD 1800mAh battery.
Tips though to improve battery life that I found:
Download CPU Spy
Download GSam Battery Monitor (Previously known as Badass Battery Monitor)
- Use this to see what is using your battery up.
Turn off any data syncing you don't need
Turn down screen brightness to an acceptable level
Make sure you close the facebook app because its a crazy battery drain
Give your battery a few days on a new rom to even out
This is what I can think of right now.
Good Luck all!

[Q] Is max Voltage of our HOX important?

hey guys
ive read on multiple battery threads that if not getting max voltage 4.2 on 0 mA you will not get full battery life
i get 4192 on 0 mA so 4192 is my max voltage..is it low?
and also my battery is kinda lower than avg HOX (i get 3 hour screen on with 18hour standby on smartmax + row with 1.3 ghz) is it because of low max voltage?
thanks

Your battery seems to be fine... 18 hours standby with 3 hours screen on time, what more do you want??

lol well...ive seen people with ARHD reach 5 hour screen on time and they consider it to be average i mean even AOKP Roms like ICJ have 4 hour screen on time..
and my screen on isnt always 3 hour sometimes its as low as 1:30 if im reading a PDF or surfing so thats why i asked..
though if 2:30 hour screen on is average then i guess i cant do much about it...
and my battery rapid drains when my device wakes up from DS...heard its normal? (that awake takes most of my battery)

Battery stats entirely depends on how you use your phone... the apps you install, how you use your apps, GPS is on? FB is connected all the time? push messages are activated? 3g all the time? does the phone goes to deep sleep?
People who get 5hr screen time obviously don't do too many things with their phone while screen is on. Suppose I use my phone for 2 hours for gaming, I will use at least 50-60% of the battery. Whereas you might use the phone just to read emails, whatsapp sms and stuff for 2 hours but you will only loose about 10-20%... So you can't compare one's usages with another! It entirely depends on what you do with your phone!
If you think phone isn't going to deepsleep, then install wakelock detector and check which app / process is causing it...

i dont think my phone ever lasted 2 hours while gaming XD
and whats app for 2 hour entirly drains my battery from 100% to 40
have every auto sync map chat and even wifi disabled
and yes i make sure my phone goes DS( -9 mA) but as usual 2:30 screen on and if watching movie 3 hour screen on...
so just wanted to know if my max volt is correct as i am thinking my battery might be faulty

What can I say... If you have taken the right precautions and used the correct settings, it should produce good battery life...
Your max voltage is surely not up to the mark but it shouldn't cause that much problem! :cyclops:

well guess its the fault with my battery then
anyways thanks
