Guys, I don´t know what happened but 2 or 3 days ago I started noticing that every once in a while my battery starts draining super fast. I mean 10% in 20min. I went to bed yesterday with 67% and when I woke up I had zero battery. I notice that when this is happening the phone gets really hot. I didn´t change anything on the phone but I did get some updates these days (1 small system update, facebook, smooth calendar, facebook, whatsapp.....at least I think these were the ones). Any ideas what might be happening? It´s random thing. Yesterday it was good all day long and then at night it happened.
I´ve just tried doing a factory reset but nothing happened.

Sometimes an app prevents your phone from going yo deep sleep. Install betterbatterystats. It shows which apps are causing wakeblocks. Uninstall all apps. Also, which rom and kernel u use?

When I go to power and then usage, the biggest consumers there are "Android System" (54%) and "HTC Sense" (24%). I´ve downloaded Gsam Battery Monitor and it tells me sreen 50% and app usage 46%. When I click in app usage it tells me Android System 20% and Kernel 9,6%.
I have no idea if these numbers are excessive or not.
I did a factory reset and I´m not charging the phone to check out how long it takes to go down from 100%.

You can only do this with an unlocked bootloader and have flashed a custom recovery.
It's all in the 'One X All In One Kit'. Search for it .

So you think that when you are at 100% of your battery, you suddenly get access to the recovery?... (this is what you literally say)
Or did you mean to say that your battery stats are wiped when the battery is at 100% .
Still I think that the second explanation is one big whoop, since my battery used to drain life too with a dubious combination of kernel, recovery and ROM. A fully charging of the battery (which I do every night) did not make this problem go away.

Wiping battery stats does nothing. It's already been shown. Search Google. It's not going to magically make your battery lady longer

In fact wiping the batt stats will not make your phone last longer on a full charge, it resolve the problem that the rom will not display wrong batt info
That's what i learned
As what Mr S says ... didn't see your post while i was writing mine
Factory reset resolved it

So does this mean battery calibration after installing a new ROM is useless? Or is that different than wiping battery stats?

Pretty much lol. I mean theres no harm in it but its a waste of time because lithium ion/polymer batteries don't have a memory effect.
So pretty much after you flash a new rom, just use it as per normal. I've tried a lot of different scenarios over the past 3 or so years with battery calibration and roms and never noticed anything significant. Mostly placebo
Edit: with that said, if you feel more comfortable doing a calibration and you feel your battery is better. Just keep calibrating
For example: when I flash a rom, I still wipe dalvik cache out of habit even though devs have already said it gets wiped when you do a full wipe lol

Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
This happened to me a few times (with almost no apps running) on RC7. Updating to 2.01 seems to have fixed that for me.
If that doesn't help, try using a different kernel and/or a different radio version and see if that works for you (we're reduced to experimentation as nobody has ben able to determine what exactly causes this issue).
I'm well impressed with mine. I went to bed with it fully charged, used it a bit in bed, always play a game and check the forums. Not plugged in at all and woke up this morning and its still fully charged!!
Amazing, since I have yahoo messenger running always. Been using it a lot since I woke up and now on 96% but I know its mainly the screen that uses a lot.
Brilliant ROM tbh
See if this helps:

Is it in your status bar that it shows the incorrect value?
Try going to Settings > About Phone > Status
It should tell you the correct value there. If it still shows up as the incorrect value i believe it could be a problem with your actual battery.

In your case, you don't need an app for calibration. Since you can't get your phone to show correct status, reboot into Recovery, go to Advanced and Wipe Battery Stats. Reboot phone, Run Wifi, Bluetooth, Torch, Music and anything that could drain battery faster altogether until the battery runs down and switches itsef off. Try recharging and see the result.
Hope it helps.
Cheers.

i have been experiencing the same problem with the battery .. doesn't seem to get past the 70% mark. I started noticing this few weeks into using CM7 ( currently using CM7.2 RC3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1698029 the issue still remains) At first i found out that if i reboot my phone after putting it to charge , it would charge all the way to 100 %. But slowly that too started fading and now nothing i do gets it above 70%. even got a new battery to no avail, and i cant get more than 5 to 6 hrs with the battery .. the battery drain is incredible
am i using an incorrect kernel or something ?? any help is appreciated .. thanks in advance !
My opinion is its something to do with your phone itself, if it was software/kernel related we would all most likely get the same problem as we are all using the same piece of software.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I too have this problem mine does not charge beyond 79% sometimes 75%. With my experience this is too do with the kernel that CM7 uses. If I restart the device it will show 100%.
If I go back to the stock kernel the charging goes all the way to 100%.
Either my charger has broken or its the overclock-able kernel.
I have tried every other method out there.
The battery performance is good BTW.
I lose 10% an hour (sometimes more) doing absolutely nothing with my phone. I check battery stats and like 98% is screen.
Question: how can that be possible if the screen isn't even on ?
I have tried everything. I'm running CM10 stable (which is supposed to be good for battery life)
10% an hour? This is a joke right? I have like no apps running. I even tried using apps that put the phone into DEEPSLEEP as soon as the phone/screen shuts off -- meaning every app is closed.
Nothing.
Any ideas? please help i love this phone but im going through 2 batteries a day and im not even using the phone that much.

Hi, this is a probably already answered. I am new with root and flashing rom. After i rooted my galaxy note 2 N7105 and using jedi x16 rom. Start to drain my battery fast.

My advice, better stay close to ROMS close to stock. Plus, turn off sync, google back up, motion if you don't use/need any of those features. And explore the settings, there are things that you can turn on/off to save your battery.
Thanks!another question. Is it true that i need to wait a couple of days to so that my noye 2 can adjust to the new rom? Because. I rooted and flash jedi x16 last thursday only.

Since it is recommended by the devs, yes.
Also try charging your phone til 100% then wait for a half an hour at least then unplug it, then go to recovery mode(CWM recovery) and under advance, wipe battery stats.
And you can try DisableService app from playstore, it can disable unnecessary services of any app. Less services running, less battery drain. Be careful though with what services you disable. Here's the link for the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.wq.disableservice
Okay i will try that. Thanks! By the way i have 2 diffent battery. Do i need to charge 100% and go to recovey mode? I think this is a noob question. XD

Yes charge it until 100% and wait for it to charge a little more, at least half an hour. Cause sometimes 100% isn't really 100%, that's why this procedure is needed for the phone to know what's really a 100% charge. It's like a calibration. I think you can do it only on one battery since every battery is not exactly the same.

Are you using a white theme on your rom? Better change it to black or stock theme. White colors makes the pixel on your screen light up and drain battery.

Fully discharge - charge
I should try to full charge the phone, then discharge it fully and then keep it for some hours without charging. When you reconnect and then fully re-charge the phone the inside-battery chip should reset. It works for laptop, maybe it works also for our GNexus.
If it doesn't work try to pull out the battery when completely empty for some hours and then put it in again and recharge.
Let us know if u've solved it!
