Hi all,
I am on stock Froyo with Bloatware freezing all of Tmobile apps.
I understand that there are a few threads about this topic, and I have gone over those. I am trying to understand about my particular battery drainage, and high temperatures.
I have been running battery monitor for a few days collecting data and monitoring the patterns and for some reason the battery drains a lot when listening to online radio over the 4g or doing minor things.
Most of the days I am listening to the radio coming in to work and leaving work. Thats about it.
I am attaching the following images.

Also, the temperature gets to about 40 C pretty regularly when listening to the radio.
Here is a snapshot of that.
Exchange your battery.
G2x with faux AOSP
Call LG or Tmobile? I am in Canada, so not sure if Tmobile will like me.
LG would be my guess.

The battery drivers on the stock G2x device/kernel are a total fail, this is a known issue since Day 2. There are rumors of stuff in the works either on the T-T&T and LG end or with the chefs here.
Until then just do what it takes to conserve. There are many threads already deep in discussion and analysis regarding this so you should probably do a search or you can jump over to one of the latest: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045616
...start at the 'last' page and work backwards looking for posts by "me" and the folks I was conversing with, should be helpful.

Hey guys. I've been getting increasingly tired of seeing pages of the development thread eaten by battery life information, questions, and screenshots, so I decided to open a dedicated thread for those that wish to discuss it.
Maybe I'm out of line, but it just doesn't seem like it belongs there in the ever-increasing quantity that it is. It's hard enough to get people to read for answers to their questions, so I figure lets have a place people can discuss this subject other than the development thread. Besides, most battery issues are not ROM related anyhow, but rather they are software and custom kernel issues most of the time.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using Insert Coin ICS.
I can go all day with one charge with medium use 12-13 hours and have 20-30% when I plug it in
I also have an anker in the mail
I get 3 1/2 hours of screen on time with auto brightness, 4-5 bars with 4G/3G enabled. That's running the latest build of Insertcoin and anker.
Here's a screenshot. I've charged it after 10 hours of heavy use until 45% from 15% and its still going strong at work right now.
Take this with a grain of salt, every phone is different and battery life varies for everyone even with the same usage patterns.

Almost every time I wake up my phone it completely loses radio signal and I cant get or receive calls. Happens on 3 different roms and radios. It started after I changed my cellular carrier so it may be related. It may also happen why the phone sleep but doesn't seem to anymore since the last flash and modem: sky-ics 4.2F with uclf5 modem, also mohans kernel 1.5.
I did tons of searching at the closest thing I found is a nexus issue which is related to the kernel smart reflex function which with my limited knowledge couldn't find in our kernel files so I could use a script to turn it off.
And ideas?
Update: I tried using my brothers sim card in my phone(he has a different carrier) and mine and his phone, his phone is a dumb phone. On the skyrocket there were no signal loss during the few hours I tested it. On his phone I couldn't see signal loss as well tho its harder with no log.
I'm guessing the skyrocket and the carrier are conflicting in the software/maybe hardware level. I don't have enough knowledge to know how its possible tho.
It never happened on my old carrier, and I'll be happy if anyone got a clue how to help me find the issue.
Oh also for a while after I returned my sim to the skyrocket the issue was gone until I restarted it.
Here's a picture that will show the wake+screen on and signal loss correlation:

I will try to give the back story as fast as I can. I was using synergyROM build like 123 for long time on S3, my screen cracked, and I backed up the phone. When bestbuy got my phone in I picked it up and before I got home it got the OTA update and it took me a bit to find how to root it with the update. got it rooted and restored and than updated to SynergyROM 373(newest build). It was just burning my battery up fast as can be. The phone was getting hot at times of use as well. I read that cleanROM was stable as can be, so I came here. After wiping everything and installing the battery might be a little better but not much.
Questions are, Is it cause something is still messed up from the SynergyROM flash?
Could it be something to do with the phone its self? Maybe its a refurbed phone and something is still wrong with it?
Here are some screen shots of my phone info.

Try not talking on the phone all day and only connect to wifi and 4g when needed. Then post some screenies with screen time on amount
Sent from club Clean Rom
I use my phone for work so I have to talk all the time, so thats not an option. Before this phone I would get though a day just fine.
Usually you want to give a 2-3 days for things to "settle down" before you can start judging the battery life (after rom flash usually). It could also be that you have a defective phone. BetterBatteryStats would also give more details of battery usage.
To me, your battery usage looks normal comparing to your activities.
If anything, I would probably lower my voltage or even underclock your device just a tad to squeeze some battery life out of it.
Hi, I need help on this. It has been days since my battery has gone haywire and I don't know what happened. I just saw that my WIFI isn't turning off even though i toggled itoff in settings/quick settings. I thought maybe a simple reboot may fix it but no. I came from CO12 to Exodus to Bliss but all have the same problems. Wifi isn't turning off! All my settings are stock. Kernels are stock also. I'm getting an average battery life of 3 1/2 hrs SOT which is awful for my usage. Also AndroidSystem and OS is killing my battery but I disabled Google PlayServices which should help. My only concern is the Wifi not turning off. Pls help thanks

Hi.
I use this app wich does only cut on and off the network: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.a0soft.gphone.aDataOnOff&hl=en
(you can also apply a screen filter to help stop battery drain)
But I doubt its your only problem... I tested with and without the app, and the difference is almost not visible. Also, my wifi (when app off) is in third place on battery usage, and I have at least a good 5-6 SOT..
(Blisspop - renderkernel R7)
Some people say that it is a common bug in Android 5.0. Can anyone confirm?

The known bug with wifi is not battery drain but the difficulty to connect, to link the network.
I have had this problem for quite some time... however I always thought it was completely normal until... I noticed it is not. I read many reviews about this phone found that I should be getting around 5 to 6 hours which seems amazing but completely out of reach. I switched from an old iPhone 6 which made this seem like much better battery life. I used to get a bit more battery life but now not anymore. I am rooted and have tried many methods but all have failed. I am running a close to stock ROM called 'The Galaxy Project' which I like having. I have wanted to post this for quite some time. I charge my phone overnight and need it for the whole day, however it dies at half of the day. I have:
- Always on display off
- Screen res on 720P
- Bluetooth off when I don't need it
- Easy turn on is off
- Mtweaks is set to be a balanced power consumption
- Greenify is running on many apps
- Battery health is approx 84% which is said to be 'good'.
Sometimes I manage around 2 hours and 30 mins but this hasn't been happening very often recently.
Feel free to ask any questions... I have read many forums and none have seemed to help!! I really want to fix this problem.
