I have rooted my phone using noobls one click method and installed setcpu and juicedefender, can anyone help me with setting the profiles up and what to set them or what I need to remove to make my battery last longer
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Get rid of SetCPU.
You will need Ultimate Juice as well. It's an add-on for Juice Defender. You can get it from the market.
Here are my settings for Juice Defender.
Currently, it shows x2.29 increase in battery life/performance. The longest time I've gone on a full single charge was a day and a half. After being unplugged for approx. 36 hours I still had a slight bit of blue left in the indicator and decided to charge it again.
My settings are as follows:
Timeout - Do nothing
Schedule - Enable Data/Wifi for 5min every 2hrs.
Night - Keep data/wifi disabled from 11pm till 4:30 am
Battery - keep data/wifi disabled while below 10%
Traffic - Leave data/wifi enabled while > 50KB/15s (might change this though because streaming audio cuts off after screen times out.)
peak - do nothing
apps - do nothing
Screen - leave data/wifi enabled while screen on
Location - keep wifi disabled while distance > 1336m
I hope this helps.

[Q] HTC Desire Battery life

I've been using HTC Desire s just for 1 week, it's good device but can't use a day after full change morning. I hate the battery life iphone but it is worse. Do you know how to get the battery life better this HTC Desire s ?
I've done 2 things like below.
1. 10 Tips for saving HTC Desire
2. Once full charge after battery dead(100% consumption)
Any better idea ? Thanks in advance.
I can't put the link for gadget 10 tips link due to 1st posting...

Same to me. 30 hours is max. This is not very good....

I also have the same as if I leave my desire S in stand by for 6 hours it loss 50% of charging and I sure that everything are closed (Wi Fi , Bluetooth , GPS , data connection , Application) so pls can anyone advise if this is special problem on my phone or it's generally in all Desire S

I find the battery quite good actually.... I normally charge it over night and have at least 25% left, normally towards 50 depending on how much angry birds i played
I have WiFi or 3g enabled, no gps or bt

Perhaps you can install battery monitor to find the cause...

I'm getting around 30 hours before my nerve goes and I charge it up again at about 25%, but I'm still using the phone quite a bit more than the dumb-phones I've had in the past.
Check: Settings > About phone > Battery > Battery use
Essential apps:
Battery Monitor Widget
Power Monitor Widget
Screen Filter
I have the screen set to auto brightness, but use Screen Filter to reduce the overall brightness to (say) 50% outdoors, 35% indoors, and 25% in the evening.
I find the biggest drain on the battery is the display, but maybe that's because I've reduced a lot of the syncing.
In "Accounts & sync", I've disabled syncing for most things, especially HTC Sense; Weather widget updates every 3 hours, other things every hour or so.
WiFi is usually off, though even when it's on, it doesn't drain the battery much.
I get the worst battery drain when playing games or watching video, especially with the brightness turned up.
GPS is enabled, but rarely in use. 3G coverage near me is poor, so I'm usually on 2G only.

[ duplicate post got created somehow when editing - can admins delete this one? ]

Try these:
-wifi settings advanced setting for sleep after 15mins
-usb debugging on
-cancel auto sync OR sync frequency for all those things that like synching all time
-change email sync (default is every hour)
-change weather update
-turn off gps
-screen sleep quicker
there are some apps which are poorly put together and can drain battery, i had problem with android market fault and had to reinstall it, also 3g watchdog had an issue before
the desire s battery is better than most android phones, certainly one of the best compared to other htc phones so battery life shouldnt be an issue..

I get two days use. I consider myself an average user. Calls, sms and internet browsing.

Don't use Screen Filter unless your intention is to reduce glare when using your phone in darkness. It will not save you any power if you are using an LCD display. and

If all you do most of the time is idling, it should last a couple of days.

My experiences:
I always using all features in mobiles such as localisation, 3G, wifi, synchronization always on. I'm doing this because phone is for me/I am not for phone
Some stats on Desire S:
-wifi only(mobile network off) 60 min of video, 10 mins voice calls, few text, few emails, few webpages 50% screen brightness
result: 27 hours
-wifi off(mobile network on) 60 min of video, 10 mins voice calls, few text, few emails, few webpages, 50% screen brightness
result: 22 hours!!!
Cmon HTC, this are very bad stat!
Anyone know is that good stats? Please don't tell me to switch off this and that...If We will be thinking in this way maybe we just put mobile on air plane mode, set birightness to 20% and then We will get around 40 hours.
Do You think, that custom roms can help with it?

Of course I did. I always doing calibration even if now is not necessary...

I have WiFi, BlueTooth, 3G on all the time. Sync on and the device is in background alone collection app. 3MB of data.
If I don't use the phone, then it uses app. 15-20% of battery a day.
I can use the phone app. 5-6 hours a day for browsing, install programs etc.
I thing that is a full days use.
I have turned off auto brightness, as I don't think it is working. In normal day light I set the light to 50% which is nice for the eyes. (Auto mode goes to almost 100% all the time, which uses more power.)

I'm a truck driver and I'm a heavy user.
I did too before I made the changes below. These all work with the Stock Rom.
1. Installed No Lock (so that I don't have to swipe the screen to unlock, just push the power button)
2. Set screen to turn off in 30 seconds.
3. Installed Brightness Widget (allows changing the brightness from the home screen
4. Installed Screen Filter (lets me really darken my screen at night.
Try those and see how you do.
5. I then flashed the Infused Rom (I now get up to 10-14 hours)

Also, Turn off GPS and Wifi when you're not using them.

Battery
After much experimenting and monitoring of battery use I find that the biggest drain is the screen display, so go to settings-->display-->brightness and lower the screen brightness as low as you comfortably can. Also when you you are not using the phone make sure the screen is off, I have trained myself to automatically hit the power button every time I put down the phone. If you listen to music through your phone make sure the settings on your music players allow the phone to play when the screen is off and turn the screen off while it plays.
GPS also drains the battery, so I keep it turned off when I don't use the Nav. When I use the Nav I know the battery will drain at a rapid pace, nothing you can do there, even if I have the phone plugged in to car power while using Nav it still drains the battery! Drains slower than unplugged navigating but still drains.
If your watching videos then your S.O.L. there's really nothing you can do that will increase battery life enough to make a difference during video playback.
I get 10-12 hours with regular use and stock rom. Worst was 8 hours best was 24.

Thanks for all the advice this has really helped my battery

There was a recent post that showed a shortcut for changing the screen brightness from the homescreen without any additional software. First, turn off auto brightness. Second, tap and hold the menu bar at the top. Third, slide left to reduce the screen brightness and right to increase screen brightness.

It seems that Samsung ****ed up and included phone CPU/screen/etc usage when measuring battery charge current.
This means that the 600 mA stock battery charge current limit isn't just going to the battery, it's split between battery/screen/CPU. If screen/CPU/etc go above 600 mA (Navigation at full brightness seems to be the most common way), battery starts draining.
It also means that unless there's something I'm missing (which I could be since the MAX8998 datasheet is super-ultra-secret), our phone isn't going to be able to do proper charge termination - if the screen is on/CPU is running, it will cause a falsely high battery charge current reading, which will cause charging to fail to terminate.

look in about phone battery use to identify the biggest battery user, it should be the screen. anything else and there is a problem.
the cell standby may go high on froyo rom, turning on flight mode and turning it off will correct that, it's an android bug.
on gingerbread the android os or android system may hog battery occasionally. some think it is the wifi sleep policy but it pops up on me without setting the sleep policy. the fix for that is to pull the battery for a couple minutes and put it back in and restart the phone.
next manage the screen brightness
install a custom rom, there are issues with certain firmware keeping sensors active wen they shouldn't be.
turn off unneeded sync options (i find that auto fetching my email uses a lot especially with my gmail already set to sync),
use wifi when you use the internet if possible, turn it off when out and about.
monitor cpu useage of apps that are cached in the task manager
kill apps that use cpu
if needed turn the max cpu clock down to 800mhz
set "use wireless networks" for location when possible for general location (limited to city level at times)

Actually, high cell standby is OK if the phone is screen-off often.
Cell standby is always my top user - but my phone is sitting on my desk with the screen off frequently, in a location with weak signal. Weak signal makes cell standby usage go WAY up.

I agree JuiceDefender works!! I had to charge in the middle of the day. Now with moderate use it will last all day Im on stock Rom.

I easily get 2 days out of my Infuse, no idea how some of you are managing to only get 8 hours. After rooting my phone and freezing the bloat i easily get twice the battery life of my prior iPhone 3GS.

[Q] Suggestions for MIUI battery life

I love these ports but battery life has been poor to average at best with normal use. (8-10 on MikeyMikes about 11-13 on Boosts respectively ) Here are all adjustments so far
- running at 100-1.2mhz on conservative
- UV at -100 across the board
- underclocked at 800 when screens off, in call , and less then 50%
- Thunderbolt scripts added
- auto brightness and power saver mode turned off, set at about 20%, Black wallpaper
- Background sync, Google backup, and email sync turned off
Anymore suggestions that have worked out for other users?

You're doing all the right things.
You could try undervolting a little more I can get mine to about -220mV across the board)
You can try disabling notifications in Market
You can try disabling notifications in calendar
If you use beautiful widgets or something similar you can adjust the refresh rate of the weather
Make sure notifications for facebook and twitter are off
That's all I can think of off the top of my head

I am also running boosted MIUI,
~running 100-1200mhz conservative and 100-800mhz conservative when screen is off.
~I only undervolted -50mv @ 100mhz, -50mv @ 200mhz, -25mv @ 400mhz, and -25mv @ 800mhz.
~NO thunderbolt script added, it says on the boosted MIUI that it already has battery performance tweaks
~I have background sync, Google and email and Facebook all set to the longest interval to sync
~automatic brightness enabled
~never really use WIFI, never use GPS (I cant even get a lock anyway, accurate to 2000 meters does me no good, haha)
Under normal use (texting throughout the day, playing games for 30 min to an hour, and browsing the internet for an hour or two, and maybe a few short phone calls) I can easily get 18 hours.
I have gotten 48 hours out of the phone, but the screen was off most of the time and I only text messaged during that time.
Under heavy use (playing GTA or watching movies) I get about 8 hours or so.
Have you tried draining the battery completely and then letting it do a full charge?
Before "boosted MIUI" I could barely get half a day out of the phone... it's nice only charging the phone every other day, and not having to carry a charger wherever I go. Boosted has by far, given me the best battery life.
Also... what kernel and modem are you running?
I'm using CWM Community Kernel, and UCKL2 modem, I do believe the modem has something to do with battery life... and how long it takes to charge... I think... it seems to me it charges fastest with the UCKL2 modem... I have tried every other modem.

Discussion about low Standby time on Stock firmware

Hello,
Many of us have issues with the battery standby (or SoT) like most of the rooted user here I have also tried a lot of tricks from disabling CPU cores to removing most of the removable bloat-ware from the original firmware because (while I still was non-rooted user) many times I start the day off charger at 7AM I end up with 3:25 hours SoT and 35% battery at 7PM, then something comes up (like going to the pub) and after 3-4 hours I found my battery at 7-9% without even turning the screen on during that period of time and no clue of what drained the battery.
The idea of this discussion is to track and reveal on what usage (and with which apps) the device is having that specific drain to help non-rooted users find the sweet spot and be helpful for the rooted users.
Also some/all the suggestions in this discussion my not work with your device and ever cause it to misbehave or even hardbrick it if not done with caution and further thinking - experiment on your own risk and no one is responsible for any damages!
What is my daily usage:
Apps: Facebook / Google Play Music / Facebook Messenger / WhatsApp / Viber / SnapChat / Google Chrome / Inbox / Gmail (with POP3)
What I did as non-rooted user:
- Factory Reset
- Stopped using Moto Voice and Double Twist
- Disabled every app that is from Motorola (and it is allowed to be disabled)
- Stopped WiFi scan (not sure because even when turned off the green bar was still visible in the battery graph)
- GPS and NFC are off when not used
note: those changes helped me to get through a day with normal usage and from 7AM to 7PM I end up with 3:35 SoT and 37% battery
Continuing with root:
- Changed the CPU governor from interactive to ondemand (since interactive boosts the clocks at the highest on touch)
- Ultra Kernel (adreno idler does a great job)
note: those changes helped me to get through a day with normal usage and from 7AM to 7PM I end up with 4:10 SoT and 45% battery and until 6.0.1 came out
Yesterday (without the root changes) after some music stream through GPlay Music in the morning after a few hours (~4) my battery was at 60% with 1:50 hours SoT and GPlay Music on the top with 23% battery use and 2 hours later the battery drop on 11% with 2:45 hours SoT and GPlay Music with 6hours CPU use. The only difference with the other days and yesterday was using the MicroSD card as cache for streamed music (note that the card is class 4)
So sometimes could be the MicroSD card('s slow speed) to blame or maybe the Google Play Music App itself.
Suggestions for root user are welcomed too like CPU Tweaks, Removing unnecessary apps, etc. and will be separated from the non-root suggestions
For replay with suggestions please use the following form

Gmail is a big culprit when it comes to stand by time ... so is play music ... ( i have disabled both )
Use Typemail ( it works without Sync on ) and any other music player of your choice
also Use Greenify to hibernate apps which you usually don't use ...also you can select ur music apps in those list ....

I can confirm that too! A month since Google Chrome added the API to get notifications Facebook started to drain less and less battery with every update.
Even with all day use of the APP it still does not go over 8-9% battery consumption

Since I flashed stock 6.0.1 and previous 6.0 for my MXP the battery life was superb. About 6-8 h sot with above 30-40h+ of overall usage. My settings are with power saving in mind though.

Personally I don't get enough important emails to leave sync on auto mode. Created a quick toggle using power toggle and I synch on a needed basis with a simple click. Today I was on the road (working) and I turned mobile data on at 4:30 am and just turned it off @ 7:00 pm. During that time I browsed internet incl Facebook, used maps GPS, streamed a little music to car with Google music, checked email with Gmail, updated apps from play store... For a Total screen time over 3 hours on a 15 hour span (mobile). Right now 72% battery left to go.
---------- Post added at 11:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 PM ----------
Only thing I really notice is adguard using more juice on mobile vs. WiFi but it still helps otherwise

Did you guys disabled moto apps or any app?

When I was stock I did all the usual battery saving tricks and I would get between 4 and 6 hours sot by the time I hit 15% battery.
Now with root and squid kernel I noticed that battery drains a bit faster but setting the min core frequency as low as it can go helps as well as greenify. I still get my 4 to 6 hours by the time I hit 15% battery. Im on stock 6.0 marshmallow before and after rooting. After rooting the phone I Uninstalled some Google Apps but kept all the Moto apps.
My usage is like this:chrome, whatsapp, typemail , Gmail, poweramp(music player), youtube(a lot of youtube)
On the weekend its completely different story. I spend the whole day on YouTube, playing games and watching offline video files. With that usage I get 3 to 3.5 hours sot by the time I hit 15%

Its normal to only have 3 hours sot playing games.Brightness is the best battery saver and disabling or greenify all the google crap also helps a little.Mostly I have around 6/7hours sot using wifi and browsing the internet around 30/40% brightness. When using squids kernel with the lionfish governor you can reach 8 hours with light usage,but its not as smooth as the interactive governor. If you like a snappy and smooth device with a good sot (6/7 hours) you can tweak the interactive governor. I flashed squids r16 kernel and tweaked the interactive governor with kernel adiutor so that the big cores only kicks in when needed with no lost of performance and great battery life. It just depends on how you use your phone and how you tweak with the kernel settings.

I have never seen such a device with so conflitcing problems amongst users in what concerns battery life. Simply amazing... -.- i can't decide if i am a heavy user, and the battery does indeed drains a lot or if my phone has problems.

I havent rooted yet.
I have:
- disabled moto apps and Google apps + Google search(with adb)
- changed dpi(adb)
- the same thing before.

Its normal to only have 3 hours sot playing games.Brightness is the best battery saver and disabling or greenify all the google crap also helps a little.Mostly I have around 6/7hours sot using wifi and browsing the internet around 30/40% brightness. When using squids kernel with the lionfish governor you can reach 8 hours with light usage,but its not as smooth as the interactive governor. If you like a snappy and smooth device with a good sot (6/7 hours) you can tweak the interactive governor. I flashed squids r16 kernel and tweaked the interactive governor with kernel adiutor so that the big cores only kicks in when needed with no lost of performance and great battery life. It just depends on how you use your phone and how you tweak with the kernel settings.

Can you share with me the governor tunables you changed for getting better battery life in interactive governor?

It's definitely an app issue. I uninstalled tapatalk because it would drain the phone like stupid. GMail (with 3 email accounts) doesn't seem so bad. I also use Whatsapp and Skype, so those aren't too bad either. Also use Play music (as offline mp3 player basically) so that's not it, either. From your list, facebook and snapchat look like they may sync too much and drain the phone. Have you analyzed your battery usage with gsam battery or similar?

I think the best app to analyse your battery drain in standby mode is this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.WazaBe.android.BatteryDrain
I use it for several years. It does not cause any drain and allows me to see if I lost too much battery during the night.
For example, with Moto X Play, I'm at -0.3% /hour with wifi enabled (and connected), 4G, bluetooth, location services, auto-sync, no exposed, but with CM13.
On Moto G3, it's the same (-0.3%/h), except Moto G3 has smaller battery. I expected more for Moto X Play, but it's still very good compared to other smartphones (Galaxy S4 for example).

Sure, but first before you apply these settings i can advice you to read this awesome guide first.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/general/guide-advanced-interactive-governor-t3269557
Im studying this guide for a few days and learned a lot from it.It teaches you how to calculate your min and max target loads which you need later to tweak the interactive governor. Im still learning , but i never knew interactive governor was so higly tweakable. If you understand all of this guide you can tweak your kernel just how you like it. Its a universal guide with examples for the nexus 5 and 6 and the most useful guide i have found so far about this governor.
I have the big cpu's tweaked so it stays at 200mhz and ramps up when needed. This are the settings i used and they work nice so far, but remember im still learning
Im using squid r16 kernel with stock rom 6.0.1.
Cpu max freq i use is 1708mhz and minimal is 200mhz.
Enter the next values into the cpu governor tunables for the big cores.
