Hi All:
I'm having serious battery issues with my captivate glide. Its unlocked. Running ICS.
Right now it doesn't even last 12 hours with any use whatsoever. With more use it lasts maybd 4-5 hours tops.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Amsu

Is there any Gingerbread custom ROM that has good battery life? that could last about 2 days with normal usage? cause I tried some and it doesnt seem to be able to last abit longer.
Rather than listing a load of ROM's you have tried, what ones have you tested? Did you try updating the Radio? Radio versions will have a big effect on battery life. Make sure you have Radio S-off first though.

Define normal usage. I have yet to encounter a rom that would last two days of my normal usage on my htc magic, but cm 7 with latest radio gives me over a day of my normal usage on dhd
I only tried CM. But a variety versions of CMs. Lol.
Normal usage.. sms and calls. but not often. it might take in total 3 mins a day for call and 5 minutes for sms. Wifi can be for 1 hour straight per day.

On that basis I would expect cm7, to stretch to two full days, standby usage is in the region of 1.5% and your not exactly hammering it.
Hi forum,
I know this is not teh right place for this toppic, but as I am new to this forum i can not post on a development forum before I have 10 posts.
Ok here is my issue I have.
Last week I have installed the CM9 alpha8 on my I8150.
Since then I am facing the issue that the bettery is not lasting more then 17 to 18 hours. When I check the power statistics I see that the baseband-standby takes more then 42% of the entire battery. This looks a bit strange for me. With the stockrom i was able to have my phone with me for allmost 4 to 5 days without recharging, now I have to charge it every single day with the same usage.
Is there anyone who can help me?
The basebank I am using is the XXLMB
Thanks already,
Dominik
I think this is, development forum is for ROMs and stuffs that are flashable. I'm not so sure about what is causing ICS ROM to have a shorter battery span. The last time i use it, i lasted 2 days. Since what you are doing on an ICS ROM uses so much battery, why not try a GB ROM instead? It definitely has much more juice than ICS ROMs.
I'm surprised that the stock rom can last 4 to 5 days...
Off late my Gnex is draining a lot of battery while making calls. a 15-16 mins call is draining the battery by 4-5% atleast. Overall I'm getting screen time of around 3.5 - 4 hours on my stock, rooted Gnex when I am making only a few calls. I'm using the stock dialer.
Can anyone please help me out?

Geez mate, I gotta tell ya.. That seems like reasonable screen time and talk drain to me. How old is this device, and especially, how old is the battery?

It wasn't like that earlier. I have no issues with screen time, only a call is draining the battery much faster than it used to do. The battery and phone both are almost 1.5 years old.

After 1.5 years, your battery is still providing about 6.6 hours of talk time out of approx 8hrs when brand new, assuming you're on 3G.
I would estimate this to be about what you can expect after that amount of time, give or take.
I wonder if a new battery would solve the issue?
What was your average drain previously?

I'm always on 2g network. I can understand the battery is getting old. I was wondering if I reflash ta radio, will it help? Earlier I used to a get around 8-8.5 hrs of talktime.

Can you tell me how you were getting 40 hrs ?just about every day if I unplugged at 8 am I may of had 20 to 30 % left at 11 pm and I've had mine since December
I've always been able to get two days out of mine in fact I'm on the second day and down to about 20% left... Strange that it has just decided to update.
Will keep an eye on it and let you all know how it does.

Until 5.1.1 update I use to unplug it at 8 am and around midnight it was still as 55/58% of charge.
I use it paired with a Sony z3 with personalized stamina mode (email and whatsapp always on).
Last charge has gone better: unplugged yesterday morning at 9 and actually (close to noon here in Italy) it still has 35% of charge.
I've just uninstalled all of the 3d party apps...
Is there any reason why we must have several threads on the same topic?
Just a friendly reminder folks. XDA requires that you search first, before posting a new thread. This makes things easier for folks to find relevant material more easier.
In this case, there's already a pre-existing thread on the same topic, so I will just close this one.
Cheers!

Hi all,
Now, I've never gotten great battery life (combination of screen on time and idle) with any phone. I don't use them all that much apart from bursts and my OnePlus 3 would get me 3 hours SoT tops within 24 hours before I need to charge again.
However since Nougat I'm struggling to get even 1 hour SoT.
I'm using Bluetooth, NFC, both SIMS and nothing else untoward. This is the same as pre-Nougat.
Anyone else seen their battery life die since the update
Try to use 1 sim. I have 3:30 sot for both sims. And 7 for 1 sim.

that's still more than 3 times what I'm getting for 2 sims...
Did you clean flash or dirty?
Rooted? If yes, which supersu version?

Batter life is great i suggest you do a clean install wipe everything on your phone after making a backup on your phone ofcourse and start again. I use 2 sims and i have an average of 5:30 to 6 hours sot

Hey Konvict
Can you answer these questions then please?
How long a period of time is that 5-6 hours of SoT over? 24 hours of standby?
What radios and apps do you have running that might eat battery?

I would say about 24 hours....i normally charge my phone at the end of the day when i have about 40-55 percent battery left but even then i usually have goften 2:30- 3 hrs screen on time depending on the day. I will attach a screenshot of my battery today and maybe u can take a look at it.
Actually today this nougat looks very good.
I'm getting awesome batter life.
First two pics from OOS 4.0
Last two pics from OOS 4.0.1
You both seem to be using both WiFi and multiple SIMs - strange then.
I can't use GSAM as I don't have root and Nougat stops the app by app recording of battery use for third parties, otherwise I could see what was happening.
I do have a number of email accounts, and messenger apps, but these sit dormant most of the day (i have no friends obviously lol)
Hmm, maybe a wipe IS needed.
You guys got a great battery life, I got 2:30 in my good days, never above it!
However, someone told me to switch Doze off from developer options, I just did that and I'm currently charging my device, will see if it do any good by the end of today "fingers crossed"
PS. I'm using Freedom OS 2.0 with clean install + using Bluetooth and 2 SIM (one for calls and the other for data)
I'm also noticing a big drop in battery life after switching from marshmallow to nougat on my OP3T. Cleared cache & did factory reset, as I always do. All apps and settings the same, and usage the same. Drain seems to be extreme, not sure what's going on. The battery life was AMAZING on marshmallow... kind of regretting switching now

Go back to the previous versions of Facebook and Messenger. These two have been draining battery like hell for sometime now.
EDIT: Try SuperSU 2.79 final.
