Hello Mates,
I am using Wildpuzzle ROM v0.8, which is having many problems in its stage.
The camera fails to operate sometimes. But I do managed to make it working using an external application.
The major issue remains of the BATTERY.
Its been a disaster for me to use it when EDGE 'on'. When the downloading is taking place, this phone starts draining the battery within 30sec for each percent. Presently i get the battery backup of around 120mins max on data usage.
One more issue lies in, the battery wont get charged beyond 71%. I need to reboot so that it shows somewhere more than 90%.
I have tried to reflash the v0.8 rom but facing similar problem again.
Will Radio update be a better option?
Can you recommend any better Sense Enabled Froyo?
Is this the bug in the ROM itself?
Help me, with your suggestions.
Thank You.
Recalibrate your battery. Just perform a search on XDA, there are many guides. It cant be a bug with WildPuzzle because I have personally tested it extensively, and this issue didnt exist.
Only after a fresh flash of a ROM, I get very bad battery life, but this is normal in all ROms I have tried. After 1-2 charge - discharge cycles, it fixes itself.
But because you are facing issues like it doesn't go beyond 71%, then jumps to 90% etc - Your battery definitely needs recalibration.
I have a quick question on why my battery goes from 50+% to 5-10% right away Its skipping all the percentage in between right now im on starburst Rom and the lost kernel i was having the problem when i had the stock kernel as well if anyone could explain the issue to me it would be greatly appreciated or help me resolve it

Just a guess but it sounds like the battery is not calibrated correctly. I'd say drain it with the phone on to dead (let android shut itself down) keep it off and fully charge over night. See if that helps I did a few tricks with my Phone and have not seen the issue come up at all lately. I would also maybe suggest going to a different rom and kernel (we do have newer ones )
Hi
since a few time my arc s is draining battery in airplane mode at night (20-30%). I am using Arconium 3c.
- So I tried to come back to Arconium 2.4 (it was ok before) : the same (20-30%)
- So I tried to turn off the phone and the same : the battery lost about 20% during the night.
The battery drain used to be great in airplane mode (2-3% per night) few months ago when I started using arconium. So I don't think it is because of this rom.
Maybe my battery is bad? Or something else?
How old is the phone
In wich interval you recharg it
Check out the battery usage under settings and look if you have installed any program that uses much energy from ur battery
I think the easiest way is to try the other ROM first. If this problem still occur, maybe you have to check your battery
I also had that problem but with this stay good:
Use this kernel
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680793
Use this Baseband
http://puu.sh/pAgX
Use this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.sineo.android.noFrillsCPU
For me is the best option
Well, thank for your answers. So the phone is 6 months old and I don't understand why if I change my ROM or my kernel it would do anything? Because the battery drain occurs even if my phone is off. Is there a way to check is my battery is damaged?
Tonight I will try to remove the battery for the night.
PS: I checked that I have no weird application that is draining battery...
jap check what happens if you put the battery out for a night
but you should even check the other kernel

Well, I am back to Arconium 2.4 (with .562 firmware) so the other kernel would not work correctly as it is for 4.1.B.0.431, would it?
I guess I should try .431 based kernel if I come back to Arconium 3c.
I have tried battery mix to check if there were an app draining my battery when phone is truned on but nothing (appart from system android) seem to consumes much battery.
Ok
well but if you really want to know what i think i would say (not assure) that it depends on the rom cus some time ago i had a2 different phones (galaxy spica and galaxy gio) wich i flashed to spicagenmod and the gio to cm7 and i recognized that the battery usage increased in a huge amount
u say that even if you turn of the phone it seems to be that you get a loss of power in your battery
the spica often crashed and i had to restart it (used many experimental features)and after the restart i had a huge los of batery power....
some roms have problems updating you the current battery status and if you restart it it seems that it had taken much battery
if you really want to safe power you may search for a undervolted kernel
Hope that really finished ur problem =)
Ok I think I understand what you mean about the voltage. ie at 100% the voltage is about 4178mv and now at 41% the voltage is 3775mv (with battery calibration app). So it seems to be not linear.
So I am going to flash kernel as recommended previously. And Do I have to reflash rom and baseband after flashing new kernel?
depends on wheather the kernel works with ur rom
what do you mean? I flash new kernel, reboot phone and if it does not work, I Reflash the rom? Maybe it risks to brick?

I dont think that there is any risk and thats what i meant flash kernel check if it works if not reflash rom =)
Download betterybatterystats and see what is causing the drain, think iridika did a thread a while ago, lemme find it for you
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1433309
Check what is causing the drain using that
I dont't think it would work when phoen is turned off..
And I am trying to flash kernel with flash tool and it does not seem to work, it is like I still got the previous kernel... any idea?
did u enter fastboot mode? did u get any error while flashing?
Yes, everything seems to work fine. Maybe I don't know where to check my kernel version.
go to settings..about phone...check about kernel.

Just an FYI
0% on the lithium battery is not 0v it is more like 3v or so... depends on the battery.
if a lithium battery measures 0v it is DEAD.

So I try this app and it appears that com.sonyericsson.android.server.dormant is guilty... about 2500 alarm wake up in 1h. so I used titanium backup to freeze fast dormancy...
But it does not solve my problem about battery drain when phone is turned off

As said earlier full charge the phone remove the battery and leave it out when you would normaly have it off to see if it is the battery or phone.

Guys,
Have you noticed huge battery consumption with CM 10.1 Unofficial ROM on E-980? I used to get 2 complete days on stock, but now I have to recharge my phone every night, no exception.
The biggest battery hogger is Android OS which consumes more than 50%. This is the original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387499&page=1.
Please let me know if any one of you have any solution.
Thanks!

Do yourself a favor and install Better Battery Stats. Then after a day of usage look into your Kernel Wake Locks and Partial Wake Locks. That'll give you a much better idea of what's draining your battery.

I just have installed it and will check it out in 24 hrs.
Meanwhile I wanted to know whether anyone else faced the same problem?

Quite a few of us had battery drain issues related to baseband. If you had installed the Value Pack update prior to installing CM you'd have the baseband which causes a lot of grief. Check the 10.1 thread. @madmack posted about what baseband you should have installed to stop the deep sleep issues.
Worked!

WOW, Thanks for your tip! As you suggested, I installed the model, and my phone is back to normal in battery consumption. Thanks!
I didn't notice this earlier, but my video recording doesn't work. Photos are coming properly, but as soon as I start shooting a video, my camera hangs. Even if I close it, I can't start it again until I restart my phone.
Can someone please help me?
Hi all
Updating to KitKat my s4 Mini i got a terrible battery drain, my phone becomes hot and draining fastly with connection data on.
I switch to the S5 Proyect Rom, with BrisK kernel, and the problem is partially solved, but sometimes the phone becomes really hot and loose a lot of battery percent.
I can use another kernel on my rom (i've never flash a kernel, i suppose to making this flashing it on Odin, right?) to fix the battery drain?
--
just use App Opp, Wakelock Detector, BetterBattery Stats... it's not made by an app this battery drain, i think is related to the network management
Try another rom, like Cm12 lollipop and f4k pre4 kernel
