Battery problems - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

I flashed the honeycomb battery icon. I have another app that I've been using (Android booster) that is a task killer. it shows my battery life, it was right on before the new icon but now they don't match up the widget says I have 10% more life in my battery then my battery icon on my status bar. Is there any way to fix this problem? or should I just deal with it
Thank you in advance

1st off, I'd recommend dumping any "task killer" as the GN2 has this functionality built in, especially since we're talking about battery performance...
2nd, I'd concentrate more on wakelock settings, and if I had to download any app it would be those that helped manage this. This way you can force everything to sleep when your not using your phone...
Also, depending on the governor, you may need to adjust your phones clock throttling upon waking/using the device, custom may be your best bet, but there might be a "built-in" profile that works perfectly for your particular individual usage

For some reason, I seem to only be able to manage about 5 hours of screen time. I've heard of people getting 6-8 hours.
I'm using this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2150145 but for some reason, that thread isn't very alive..
I tried the jedi ROM, but I just can't stand it when developers change little things about the UI. Is 5 hours normal for a ROM that's mostly stock? I'm using the UNEAK kernel.

Need educated!!!

I need educated on a few things, I'm concerned with the performance of my phone so I have it rooted and I have installed system panel to monitor things, autokill memory optimizer for ram of course as well as watchdog to alert me if any apps are outta control. Am I crazy for having these or is it a good idea? Also is there anything better I should use rather then what I already have? I just want my phone to run smooth and my battery to last bc I use my phone all day long

A lot of that is unneeded. I have System Panel, but only use it if I'm having problems with an app. Rarely is there a use for watchdog. On stable ROMs, I've never seen an app get out of control, and rarely on betas. So it justs sits in the background eating battery itself. Also try, using a stock speed, undervolted battery with SetCPU. If I'm trying to make mine last, I have a screen off profile of powersave 384/245, and regular of 700-800ish (I forget)/245 conservative.

ok thanks, i installed setcpu and have two profiles set, one for when screen is off with settings similar to yours and another set to when my battery is >30%. could you please tell me what the governor options of on demand, userspace, or performance mean ?? also should i set priority's to anything other then the default 50 % ? thanks for the help

(Question)(need helpp)

I'm using the setcpu app and whenever I apply a "when screen off" profile and put my phone to sleep it won't turn back on. I set it to 200-400mhz and it doesn't turn back on and I think the govenor is conservative.
I am running randomrom pheonix with genocide 2.0 kernel.
Can anyone tell me what they have their profile set as or what is a good low value I can set my phone to so that it still runs but doesn't waste too much battery life while its off. Any kind of help is appreciated.

Don't use profiles
I wish I could be of more assistance, but basically, I remember many of the more experienced forum members here suggesting that you do *not* use profiles with SetCPU on the Epic 4G.
I am running the Genocide 2.0 kernel on my Epic with SetCPU set to a max of 1120 and min of 100 MHz, with no profiles set and the governor set to conservative. Haven't had any issues.
Also, I use a widget called Temp+CPU PRO that dynamically shows you the clock speed of the CPU, so you can tell when it's at 100 MHz and so forth.
From what I've seen, the speed of the CPU ramps down to 100 MHz on its own when the phone is idle.
Oh.. well I have never seen that.. I heard ppl talking about setcpu is better than voltage control so I thought it was cuz of the profiles.
So about how many hours do u get out of ur phone? What rom r u using with that kernel?

There are a lot of good posts on here about maximizing your battery life. Most of it requires some functionality to be sacrificed, so it's all about your personal preferences.
Our AMOLED screens are purty, so even though I keep mine dim to save battery, once in a while, say when watching a movie on the phone, I'll crank up the brightness all the way to make the visuals pop. Do a few searches, read up, and then tweak, tweak, and tweak some more until you find that "sweet spot" that works for you.
Of course, hooking yourself up with one of those monster 3500 mAh batteries wouldn't hurt, either. Just sayin'

I know I read a lot and I do like everything they say but don't get the same result as they say and I use screen filter so my brightness is alwas reallly low
And idk how to use tweaks really well I found this battery tweak thing and I believe all it really does it change the mhz the phone runs on but I could b wrong
And I used supercharge v6but idk if it works I don't notice any changes.
So now I just changed to eh17 modem and removed all apps I don't use and only have a few. I froze the thingsi know waste battery and I don't have nothing thatuses the battery I think.. so is there any tweaks u know r good?
Make sure you freeze sns and drm services with a bloat freezer of mybackuppro's toolbox tht saves me like a couple percents of battery an hour. Also I have tried setcpu, voltage control, pimp my cpu, but my favorite overall is tegrak

I have titanium backup pro and I froze the sns, system updates, drm content, and even the google maps app and I only defrost that app when I use it.
I have set cpu set on 200-1120 mhz. And I have juice defender and its set to "extreme". I don't keep any date connection on when I'm not using it. I'm not sure what else there is to do but I'm sure I've done some more things...

Don't they cost like $70???
I wouldn't use the screen off profiles. You only would need them if your trying to have your phone never go into deep sleep for some reason. Not to say the settings would cause this, but your phone should hit deep sleep after 10 or so seconds of screen off making this setting quite useless. Also if your running genocide you need to be using on demand! You can set the throttle up % in the advanced tab of setcpu. If you wanna utilize profiles what I do is set it to throttle down the cpu as my battery dies. Saing juice for those crucial lower percentages.
Cd's or tapes?

I'm saying don't bother with the screen off profile, first of all. Secondly don't run conservative with genocide! Its geared for ondemand (unless your trying to save your battery by not overclocking at all) and ondemand is configured by going into the advanced tab and configuring the usage percantage of your cpu to switch to the next highest frequency at a certain percentage. I use 98% and I get pretty darn good battery life. I don't know if it helps or not, but I also set powersave bias on 25. Just post if I'm still confusing you.
Cd's or tapes?
No I get it now ur talking about the up threshold right?
I flashed this battery tweak and I went to check it right not the up threshold is set to 95 I guess the tweak changed it cuz I remember checking it before and everything said -1. But thanks I get it. So if I had my phone set to 200-1200mhz and ondemand and when I have a high battery level I higher the thrshold and as I lost battery I lower it...?

lol 1400/200!?!? theres ur 1st problem. use voltage control instead of setcpu and stick with 1000/100 or 1100/100. i always found cfq and conservative to be nice for battery, but apparently noop/ondemand is best. maybe try both. also turn data off when not using it most importantly. also try using the auto-start manager in the ROM Toolbox app (free in market) to disable most of ur apps from staying open or updating widgets constantly in the background. freeze system apps you don't use. forget the v6 supercharger, and i'd say stick with the stock kernel. hope that helps..

If you turn of 3g data, you can still send/get phone calls and texts but no email
Also, undervolt you frequencies with voltage control, I don't think you have to go to stock kernel, but do as you please I would imagine the dark blacks from voodoo control would save battery. But anyways, Marcusant had a great guide for setting up any kernel for your phone, ill try to find it..

somebody in another epic thread posted a link to another phone's thread where this guy did a REALLY thorough study about setting up kernels. he found the noop/ondemand was best on battery and that undervolting AT MOST saves about 2% battery, but typically does just about nothing. For that reason, i wouldn't bother doing it..but it's up to you. as for voodoo color you might be right about the blacker blacks..i just noticed on cm9 that the stock kernel saved more battery for me so figured it might apply on aokp too cuz its so similar

Ahem what battery life oh okay
I haven't figured out what is so different but I get much better battery life on AOKP than CM9. My imagination or is something really different on the roms? I don't use the power saver feature because I need my data all the time.
Im running Stock Build 31 on EL30 modem and no custom kernel nor am I oc/uv. I have very few apps and I have no widgets running and im getting horrible battery drain. I purchased the 1800 battery which is a few months old and I just dont know what to do. While my phone is sleeping, the battery drain hardly even moves, but when I start doing simple things like texting or checking emails I start getting drops of 2% percent or more every 5 mins of use.
Any Suggestion would be great.

Nope cpu spy shows how much time the phone is in different mhz.. like if you turn off your screen it will go into deepsleep and when you open the app it indicates how much time the phone has spent into deep sleep...
And OP maybe its a bad battery if you have tried ics roms and jb ?

Well, what do you guys think of this? I'm new to the S3 not familiar with the ROMS. What's the best ROM out there for us with good battery life and performance?
I really like the CodenameAndroid and ParanoidAndroid roms in combination with Ktoonz kernel, I get around 2 days of battery with moderate usage and over 6 hours screen time, which IMO is great for the US S3

holy sh*t the android system is raping your battery, well I love wicked roms(ICS) awesome battery and super smooth. You can also check out FrostyICS and FrostyJB those are also really good ROM's. I personally like ICS ROM's as they are more stable and don't have minor issues that some the JB ROM's have.
Check out post #3112 and #3113 in the WickedV7 thread and check out the battery life pic people posted on that ROM.
GO to the Play store and download no-frills CPU control or set cpu and check and see what you Min and max is for your CPU.
I have an extended battery and after 4 hours i was at 65 or 70% which is way off!!! I check this and it showed that my min and max was at 1024 once I changed the min to 384 everything got better

When it comes to battery life, there are many thing that you can do to improve it.
First off, turn autobrightness off, and try and keep the brightness slider as low as comfortably possible.
Dark, if not completely black background are not only sick looking, but they help with your battery life.
Less widgets, especially ones that require frequent updates...like weather widgets, and facebook widgets will wake
your system up to update. I suggest removing most, if not all of your widgets from your home screens.
Download an app like setcpu, nstools, or voltage control to set your min and max frequencies. In setcpu, make some profiles for screen off to
make sure your system isn't throttling up while your phone is not in use.
Change your governor and i/o schedulers. With a high end device like this, you can comfortably sit on conservative governor without experiencing bad lag...i/o schedulars wont effect battery life too too much but simple ones are best (like sio).
Run v6 super charger, kickass kernalizer, and 3 script to improve the way your device runs, and battery life. Stick to wifi when possible. Having low signal will cause your phone to constantly look for a better signal which will prevent it from deep sleeping.
Use titanium backup to freeze unnecessary processes, such as DRM protected content.
Download one powerguard to help also.
Good luck!

This was mentioned in another thread. DL this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eugene373.cpu.sleep
It shuts down one of your cores when the phone isn't in use.
Also DL CPUspy. This will show you exactly how often your phone is using certain frequencies, and whether or not it's going into deep sleep.
It looks from your screenshot however that your standby battery is not the problem, it seems to shoot down when in use (at least I'm assuming that was from when you were using the device).
Click on "System" and take a screenshot so we can see what's going on

Error is the first thing listed. Have you tested the battery by doing a full reset and flash, then not installing any apps? If this is happening across roms and builds its most likely one of your apps not playing well with the system.
Before your next flash, go into dev options and turn on Show CPU Usage. Then let us know what processes seem to stay at the top all the time.
Also get cpu spy from the market and after letting it collect its data for a while (especially when not using the phone) check it to make sure its going into deep sleep.
After those two, do your clean flash and run without installing any apps for a while. Then when you do install them, do not restore from a backup. Download them fresh from the market. Also do not restore any backed up data, at least at first.
When you do flash your system, download the full firmware to your computer (use root66 if you want to keep root). From recovery choose format data, this will wipe your internal sdcard, btw.
Now boot into download mode and using Odin, flash the firmware you just downloaded.
Once done charge back to 100% and see how it goes.
You can get the firmware from my stickied thread in development.

As long as you follow instructions, and make sure you have the correct fw for your model, Odin is actually quite easy to use.
Restoring apps and especially data can cause all kinds of issues when jumping between different builds and especially android versions. The updated apos and system often have different database structures, different data files, and even different storage locations sometimes.
I'm betting this is where the problem will be.
I understand not wanting to go through all that I mentioned, but if you want to know where the problem originates, you have to start removing variables to narrow it down.
If you don't care what's causing it, jump to the flash. Nandroid backup, wipe everything, odin flash, test. If all is well, restore the data part of nandroid. If problems start again then you know its either your apps or data causing the problem.
Odin instructions are in TheExels thread stickied in this section.

[APP] Deep Sleep Battery Saver

Hello folks,
I came across this app which basically forces your phone into deep sleep mode when not in use( screen off). It turns data, wifi off etc. And wakes phone on in every half hour or other intervals you choose to check email etc. It does not do much when you are using the phone but saves a lot of battery when the phone is not being used.
I am using CM10 alpha 6 and it works great for the time being. I highly recommend it for people having battery issues.
If you want to try go to google play and search for "deep sleep battery saver".
My first impressions are really good.Just wanted to share...
Edit: Here is the link for play store
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rootuninstaller.batrsaver
Here is the link for the xda-version thread where you can get .apk

as your recommended, we would appreciate if you include a playstore-link of the application
so we can download the right apps directed form your link easier,
and most users here use their mobile or tapatalk to access the xda forums
thank you
Link is added on the first post.
Apparently there is also free xda version of the app which includes paid options. There is a thread created by the developer on xda but since I am on my phone right now, I cant find the link. But a google search will lead you there.
EDIT: Link for xda version is also added for your convenience.

That is the point. It just wakes every once in a while (30, 45, 60 minutes etc. you define) and get all sorts of notifications etc. There will be delays for notifications. It is a price to pay for a dramatic increase in battery life. If you want to be notified immediately for a facebook, twitter etc., then this is not for you.
Now I can get around 30 hours of battery life easily. Before my battery used to die in about 17 hours or so. So the choice is up to you..

Yeah sometimes I got that issue too. So what I am trying now is to leave Data connection alone but stopping apps. I will see if battery life is still good.
