So I've flashed over to incredibly RE-engineered and I heard about the great battery life and speed. I sure did have a more noticeable speed improvement but my battery life hasn't gotten any better. Any reasons why this might be? And for some reason I can't load any videos off hulu either. Anyone have these similar problems?

Everyone's battery life is different because everyone uses their phone differently. One person may get great battery life because they don't do much with the phone, and someone else will try the same, but they do a lot of streaming, web browsing, etc and have horrible battery life. It's all trial and error until YOU find the combination that works well for YOU.
And the hulu problem I believe there is a fix for it in the thread. Search the thread for Hulu and you should be able to find it. (I am not sure of this because I don't use the rom, but I believe I read something about it when I tried it out.)
Battery life if tough to compare due to reasons above. When I was syncing a corporate email account via active sync I was getting 9-10 hours o this rom. I am no longer using active sync and right now am at 15 hrs 37 minutes since unplugged at 62%. Awake time is about 5 hours on this charge. This is with stock battery.
Exchange active sync is a hog.
I use my phone pretty often and Im usually texting and browsing on the net. But my battery life is maybe 6 or 7 hours? I haven't really gone all the way down to empty but that seems about right. Is that decent?

That's not quite good. On my stock battery I'm getting around 15-25 depending on use. Maybe check your settings for battery hogs?
I'm using chads kernel, have sync on every hour for weather and my friend stream tied accounts.no gps on though.

I'm not sure what's wrong with my phone. My battery usage says that most of my battery is being used by cell standby and the android system. Should I reflash the rom and see if that helps? I want incredible battery life too this battery life is pretty much the same as a stock rom which is why I flashed in the first place : more battery life!
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I'm not a power user but I get better battery life with this ROM. Yeah, maybe you should wipe and re-install the ROM. I would then not install any apps and see what your battery life is like. Disable auto-syncing too. Maybe you have an app sucking the battery down.
Is there an app that i can download to monitor my battery usage? I know you can check it through the "About Systems " menu but I almost don't trust it.

Running a faster rom like re engineered, if battery life is super important, you can use setcpu to underclock slightly at all times, and lot at screen off. It comes with a lou's kernel, which he doesn't recommend using setcpu with, but I've always had great luck with king klix kernals, which also undervolt.
HTCInc-redibly re-ENGINEERED
A few days ago I decided to try out ktoon's kernel. I was getting horrible battery life and there is a distinct possibility I did not give it enough time to settle as some have said. One person suggested I get Better Battery Stats, but at the paid app part, I didn't bother and went back to stock kernel.
Since then I have found the thread here and installed it to see what was going on. Fully charged battery unplugged and left idle.. When I woke up I had 8 hours of time on the battery and 92% left.. I was happy with this... A quick game of Angry Birds Star Wars later, and I am down to 88%... Now it has been an hour and a few random things later (Angry Birds Seasons, uninstalling bloat via titanium backup) and I am down to 78%.. 10% gone in an hour?
I am just a bit on the very confused side. I was getting 18 hours or so of decently heavy use prior to flashing a custom kernel. Now, I could just be checking my phone more and not noticing it and causing some bias here, but I am at a loss. One member seems to think I have a hardware problem causing my battery drain and that I should replace my device, but I figure it doesn't hurt to seek a second opinion.
As for the ROM I am on, it is just the stock LJ7 with a few theme tweaks I have done and removed some bloat.
Perhaps I am just looking too deep assuming something is wrong..
EDIT: I just followed a tip by Naddict to stop Google Maps from reporting anything.. Hopefully that helps a bit..
Same I think I get good battery life randomly like for instance any ROM or kernel I try I get random battery life sometimes 10+ hours sometimes 7 or less and I do my best at optimizing my phone to save battery I switch brightness to zero no sync at all juice defender ultimate was also tried lol

Could you post kernel alarms. I mentioned the potential for SD issues basically it works this way. You have cached information that doesn't get wiped the program accesses it and basically because for instance the ktoonsez kernel contains newer linaro or the fact it's based on 4.12 those small difference make the cache potentially poisonous.... another example is corruption of the partition causing media scanner to basically endless loop another example network spoofer if it crashes while running corrupts dalvik and requires a wipe. Or your SD card it's failing. Just examples

Forgot to mention, when I wrote the OP, I had already switched back to stock kernel. Phone is plugged in charging atm, I'll have that screen shot for you in the morning if you still need it.
I can't complain with these results here... Since I did a few things when I got up, I lost 1%. But over night I only lost 7%
What am I doing wrong. 4 hours after a full charge and I'm at 28%. I used the phone for a total of an hour today between Facebook, YouTube and Internet browsing. Almost dead, WTF!! Please someone help me fix this. I have each frequency undervolted 115 MHz and its pretty stable. I also keep mobile data always off when not using it. So why is my battery life so horrible.

Just installed a battery saving app from snapdragon..

I just downloaded it to see how it does compare to Juice Defender and DS Battery Saver Pro. I never really like Juice Defender and have been using Battery Saver for a month and it seems to help my battery life.
Once I have been using for a few days I will report back what I think about it. Thanks for the post tho otherwise I wouldn't have found this app.
Just installed this.... will report back when it's done learning and switches to saving mode.
Thanks for the heads up, i'll give this a try.
nice grabbed this up will be checking it out.
Just posted this in the Verizon Galaxy S III forum as well.
Still seems silly to me that we are going to have to have 4 separate discussions for an app that will work the same on each carrier.
I'm not really sure on what the value of these apps are.
Letting my phone do whatever it wants when I'm on wifi and my phone is sitting idle, my phone uses around 1%/hour of battery life.
Some portion of that is all this app could really save then, right?
Why bother if, in exchange, I'm possibly having delayed notifications, apps not updating in the background, etc.?
I've been running this app .today is 3 day (around) have not rebooted or anything using phone as always honestly don't see a difference yet..

doesnt do anything, i get about 12% drain in 9 hours when im sleeping, what it does just turn off wifi for me if im not in range, which is useless, having wifi on doesnt drain much battery at all
Thanks for the link! Will update in a few days with results
can't tell if it's just a placebo effect or not, but i feel like my battery life is a little better after using this app
I haver never once had a random reboot until I installed this today not sure its related just throwing it out there
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
After using this for the past few days I would say overall it is not that bad of an app. I am really starting to like it. My average battery usage went from 5-6%/hr to 3-4%/hr. I know there are a lot of variables that go into this but I would say it works as well DS Battery Saver. I have also used JD but never really liked that app. I will continue to use this app to see what the long term would be on here but its a good find in my opinion.
If nothing else try it out for a week or so and compare stats. I use Better Battery Stats to get my info from.
Has anyone compared this to the relatively new "Greenify" battery saving app?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155737
Anything that suggests it saves battery makes me nervous. Because the only way to do that is to shut down apps. And when you shut down the app, it may not get updated, or it may open very slowly when you do need it, etc.
I did not like it much... i am guessing that all this app does is change sync frequencies of different apps. To do it it tries to determine your location so that it can turn sync off/on or change sync interval based on your prior usage patterns.
Once it was out of learning mode, i noticed that my s3 battery drain was quicker due to excessive usage of maps by this app.
I uninstalled the app... and have got my battery life back.

Hi guys,
I used to have an LT22i with GB, and even though I was not thrilled with its battery life, I could perfectly live with it.
Right now I'm using an LT28h with ICS, and I was expecting to get much better battery life because:
. the battery is something like 1900 mAh, rather than the LT22i's 1380 mAh
. It's running ICS instead of GB
. I know the screen is bigger, but I often use it with less brightness than the gorgeous LT22i display did
Nevertheless, my feeling is that battery life on LT28h is roughly the same as what I had with the LT22i.
I checked the battery menu and I can see that Android System is what uses the most battery. On LT22i, it was the screen.
On the battery menu, when I click on Android System, I get:
CPU total: 4m21s
Keep awake: 5h48m36s
The keep awake time seems huge!
So, I've installed BetterBatteryStats in order to find the main battery consumers included in "Android System". But BetterBatteryStats tells me that the phone is in deep sleep most of the time.
I also have installed SystemPanel but I don't see any System Processes taking away much CPU.
Any clues on what's going on here?
Thanks in advance!
Bigger screen = bigger battery consumption
Well other than that,ics use much battery
Sent from my LT28h using xda premium
Yes..bigger screen use more battery usage..I'm suggesting you to use app Greenify to hibernate apps that always running at background..Updating to JB rom is better than ICS because it have extended battery mod..It's similar to Juice Defender..

Nop. I compared with untouched stock firmware on both. Using exactly same apps. (6 hours of different is too much)
When I bought my phone it hold for 2-3 hours with ICS (too little for a phone). But now when I use JB at least I an use for 6 hours with less usage.

well for me battery in JB is good but battery life in ICS is way better. well you must need to have an app called greenify.. it helps you to hibernate all the apps you dont use and also you dont need that consumes the battery juices from your phone. my ICS ion .68 is indeed superb well why i love the ics rather than the jb? stock JB makes my ion freeze when using 3g/4g conectivity and most likely to happen when downloading in the play store so i used the ics which suits me way better since im an data user not a wifi user.
so try it out pal and hope it will help you..
Keep awake times of 5+ hours is definitely huge and wrong. I have had the same issue many times, usually it comes down to Google's location services. Check your location settings and see which ones are turned on, and also go into Google maps and find the settings there, it has it`s own location settings too. If no luck there, try turning off auto-sync for different apps, go into e-mail settings and click auto update every hour instead of every minute, check wifi settings to make sure it`s always on only when plugged in, because if it`s not off when your phone is sleeping and you go out it will try to find networks. Play around with it until keepawakes are under half an hour or so each day.

Hi there,
here's a screenshot of my battery usage (the fact that "screen" isn't the first one on the list is what made me try to figure out what is happening).
In terms of settings:
. Google location services are on (though not GPS). My Xperia P also had them on and "Screen" was always on top of the list
. Google maps is a bit useless without location, but I'll try to disable it... Once again, my Xperia P had Google maps location on
. I've turned autosync off for pretty much everything (and I use JuiceDefender to connect once every hour)
. e-mail is set to update once every hour
. wi-fi is only on when plugged in
Thanks.
The only other thing that's worked for me when android system or android os starts glitching with wake locks is restarting my phone right after I've finished charging it. Most of the time after doing this a couple times it seems to sort itself out.
Sent from my LT28i using xda app-developers app
Hi guys,
after having disabled all Location Services yesterday, battery life was not short at all - last night I still had 46% battery after a 16h40m on battery time. Nevertheless, Android System is still using 42% of battery and has a keep awake of over 6h (see attached screenshots).
Other notes:
. I don't restart the phone every morning after charging (actually I do restart the phone every night before charging) but today I did it and battery life is not appearing to be better - actually it appears to be worse
. I can't use greenify because I'm not rooted
So what is going on here exactly?
I'm out of ideas simply because android system has so many processes under its name its hard to tell which one exactly is acting up. I've put a couple screens of mine to show it is possible lol. All I got left to say is update to jelly bean and hope things get sorted out.

The strange part is... battery life is not exactly bad... it just isn't spectacular, and maybe it could be if keep awake time was less.

Any other g2 users having major battery issues? Sprint g2, some apps and bloatware frozen/removed. Rooted as well. Battery dropped 38 percent in 4 hours with little to no use. Location services are off. Shows that android operating system using around 40 percent. Any idea of what is causing this? So far, not loving the update and the issues its having.
Absolutely not... Quite the opposite. I'm on a custom ROM but I used ZV7 ZV8 & ZVA before with no issues. That's one great thing about the G2 is the Snap Dragon processors are great on the battery, a charge lasts a long time and the battery never gets hot even with constant tethering and heavy usage. You should try the Snap Dragon battery guru app in the play store at: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xiam.snapdragon.app which is great for saving juice. Or takes a couple days to get full effect cause it learns your patterns and stops apps from refreshing during times when you don't use them, cuts of WiFi and or data during times when you aren't using it. Also I'd check your battery usage stats and see what processes are draining it the most. Is most likely an app or 2 draining a lot of your battery, so the battery guru will stop that from happening during times that you don't use those apps.

Its very common after a firmware update for a battery to go outta whack. It may be that you need to recalibrate it. After any firmware update its adviseable to so a factory reset at 100% battery level. Then use your phone normally till the battery dies and phone shuts down. Plug in the phone and let it charge to 100% while off. Turn it on, and use it till the batt dies again. Repeat charging to 100% with phone off.
That may solve your issue. Fully cycle the battery 2x.

I got the ZVC OTA, then I flashed the zvc .tot after accidently deleting supporting services for voice mail (Skyfire Observer and Sprint Extension provider) after flashing Im at 7hrs 30mins Screen Time surfing web with 15% battery left on first day, before that I got little over 6hrs with 0% battery and all the same apps. Do a factory reset after OTA that might help or flash the ZVC.tot for a complete fresh install like I did.
Just an FYI Swype connect is a known battery killer for some its mentioned on their forums and it sometimes runs even when all connect features are blocked.
Another thing block location services when not needed it will save a nice amount of battery life.

I think its a problem with 4.4.2, google is fixing that in 4.4.3. Also make sure Sprint Connections Optimizer is really off.
The only issue I've seen is Bluetooth showing up under battery stats as being used at around 50-55% yesterday with a runtime of over a day. I'm thinking its just a reporting bug since I haven't used Bluetooth at all and I don't see a noticeable drop in battery but if it is using it I'd definitely like to curb it.

No I haven't. I guess I'll give that a shot. But sucks to have to redownload my apps n such for that.

Do you have location settings and google now enabled?
I don't get the people who say they get 7 hours sot out of this phone. I have two of these and even with complete stock no after market apps the best I do is 3-4

I get 7.5 hrs and 15% battery left at 50% Brightness, location and autosync drain battery a lot as I mentioned before. Also use task manager to autoblock Sprint apps and uncheck Sprint Connections Optimizer it eats battery, Lastly Swype connect runs even when online features are disabled and eats battery, there are many complaints about that on Swype forum as well.
Im mostly on WiFI and have full signal due to Airave (no LTE) so I guess that helps too. All those things add up, I'm sure you can achieve that screen time as well.
By factory reset, do you guys mean in settings? I need to reset, but I don't have a computer at the moment so I can't reflash tot.
