I have been using Juggernaut and have been really happy. I use the latest faux 10u kernel with it. I got around 18 hours of battery life with this combo yesterday and i usually last longer than a day without having to recharge.

How much battery do you lose when your phone is on standby?
I'm really loving juggernaut 5 right now with Darkside kernal.
I have about .5% battery drain per hour in sleep which i am loving very much.

[Q] Jellybean Battery Life?

Hey,
For all of you who flashed the Jellybean ROM on your CDMA/LTE Gnex, how is the battery life?
Also, I know the CDMA/LTE Gnex didn't get a new radio with JB, but which one do you recommend being on?
Thanks,
Ken
Its way too soon to ask about battery life.
My gues is, that it wouldn't make that big of a difference to the battery life we have now.
You need to wait for about 1 week, then people can tell if there really is a difference.
OP, I should be getting my nexus tomorrow or Saturday. I will update my post with battery stats after 2 days.

Why would you need to wait a week?
Probably gonna be about the same... same exact radios and everything right now. There's nothing drastically different about JB that would increase life.
Perhaps OP's question might be directed at those who've flashed JB and have already had it for a few hours.
Did any of you notice more or less battery drain based off your usage?

I'm using vanir jellybean v3 over clocked to 1430mhz...I had my phone on for an hour under heavy usage on lte and it went down 25%. Will post more later.

Battery Life on OOS 5

Just wanted to start a central thread for people to share SoT's and other battery-life-related info for the new OOS 5 build, and the other Oreo builds that may eventually follow, OnePlus willing.
I'm just waiting to see how battery life turns out, and how stable the build is, before upgrading. I figured many others would be too, so any of you brave first responders who want to fill us in would be very appreciated!
Useful info to include:
*Screen-on time (ideally with a screenshot of app usage)
*Average standby drain per hour
*Rough difference between standby drain when on WiFi/LTE (signal quality is the biggest decider here, so if you have an idea how good of a signal you may have been getting, please include that too)
Thanks to anyone who takes the time to let us know! (Remember to click the thanks button for those who help us out!)
So far so good. Pretty much the same as nougat.
i lost 40 % in around 1 hour SOT. that's very bad...
Very good, better than nougat
Hi, maybe a survey can be usefull ? Like "better than nougat" or not
After selecting location mode to GPS only, my idle drain with Oreo open beta is really low. I usually have 80% battery left when I go to bed. The other day I somehow disabled wifi and still had 80% left, so cellular battery usage is minimal.
Way better battery life than nougat.

Can you tell me which Blue_Spark kernel you tried?
They haven't released for OOS 5.0 yet right?

There isn't a lot you can do about google play services and android system wakelocks, that's just Google spying on you and selling information about you. Limiting those almost always breaks something, they build their internal services confusingly on purpose because spying on you and selling that information is their core business model. You just have to do trial and error and see what works in your use case.

Everything works fine except for battery life.Some people using RR6 are having a excellent battery life.There must be something I can do to improve the situation.

Broken? Arasthel's LOS 15.1 is running very smoothly for me with decent battery life, not much worse than MIUI for me.
I'm running RR 6.0 now, never have that kind of battery drain.

Half of the calls had no audio for me wit LOS 15.1. I definitely did not do anything wrong, I did your flashing sequence with total wipe. It was also draining battery and getting hot. I have no clue how it can work for some people and not for the others.

Maybe you should properly calibrate battery once new rom is installed. That helped me before.

I don't have a battery screenshot right now. But I definitely don't notice much drain when the phone is idle. I get 3-4h SoT per day with 20-30 percent left. I use bluetooth in the car a lot and always have it on, almost always on wifi. Don't notice any drainage when on LTE though.

I found out where the cause is.It's the location setting.Default location setting is high accuracy,which costs a lot of battery life.I turned it off and it's all fine now.9 hours idle,4 hours SOT,40% battery left.Really satisfied with that.
UltraCLD said:

I really dont know the reason. But one thing is that because I came from MIUI, after flashing the RR, i do the "format user data" just to make sure everything is clean for a different kind of Rom. It would be a bit hassle to copy things back to the phone, but I just have to do that format thing once.
Also I use greenify with aggressive doze. That's it

I have no audio on calls - again. This is really starting to piss me off. If no one else has this, then it must be a problem with my phone. I have never tested it with miui to be honest, I flashed custom roms right away. I guess now I need to go back to stock to see if the issue persists.

It helped me. I am not getting any drains. Give it a try you got nothing to lose. Just discharge your phone fully and then leave it turned off to fully charge.

Android P DP 3 review

Hello all,
Can Android P DP3 be used as a daily driver on the Pixel XL?
yup, I'm using it for a couple of days and there is no any noticable problem.

Battery is very good. But I would recommend you do a factory reset after flashing it. It's always good to do a factory reset when coming from an android version to another version for better results in general.

I get about 5 hours SOT, a slight improvement to 8.1 which is not bad for DP3!
Also most of the app crashes and incompatibilities that I had with DP2 are gone or resolved after resp. app updates.
Enjoy the half gestures of DP3

That's insane. How much you used to get in 8.1?
Mine barely gives 3.5-4 hours

It's really good, when I'm in the office, from 11 to 7, using the phone for calls and messages at the end of my workday, I'm still having 75-85%. About SOT, as I'm using the phone on almost full brightness every time, at least 90%, I'm getting 4-4.5 hours.

You guys are getting good SOTs, mine here goes down max 3.5 hours with same usage.
On DP3 it's fantastic but I seem to have a strange performance bug where the phone locks up for a few seconds. It gets worse over time with restarts fixing it.

This one's new now. Is it happening randomly or after some tasks are performed?
And is fast charging working properly?

It's really odd. For the first few days it was fine then suddenly it happened. As for fast charging I haven't actually looked (battery life has been much better). The lock ups have something to with with the UX but I haven't been able to pin-point it.
