[Q] Battery life on Infused 2.2.3 - Samsung Infuse 4G

I'm currently running OC'd 1.4ghz (infusion 1.1) with SAS Tweaks and 99 Tweaks, and my battery life on infused 2.2.3 simply is not even close to what it was on S7.
Has anyone had the same feelings as me, or is something eating my battery? Thanks guys.

First thing I do when I notice a big drop off in battery life is look at the Battery Status. If I see Android System above 15% of overall draw, I'll reboot my phone. That bug in GB is lame and it happens too often for my liking...
Other than that, I can't comment on S7 as I've only been using Infused. Battery life has been OK for me but nothing spectacular. Batter though than stock for sure.
Oh and I'm running Infused 2.2.3 with Infusion 1.1 OC'd to 1.6.

Nope it's at 6%. I was getting twice the life on S7, just wondering if anyone had any suggestions.
Cell Standby is 10%, Display is 39%.
14h 10m w/ 32% left. I could get two days easy with S7.

Got about 50% more life out of S7 over Infused. Infused is a great rom and all but I got 9-12 hours on it for my use.... I've been on Serendipity for a while now for this reason as I'm consistently 15-18 hours on it....

I agree. I re-flashed S7 today. The only ROM i'll consider is CM7/MIUI once all the issues are worked out.

Less battery on gingerbread?

Am I the only one who gets worse battery on gingerbread? I have less widgets running than on froyo, and it seems to drain much more. Anyone else have the same?
I haven't noticed any difference. I still get about 6 hours before needing my charger (which is the same as I had on Froyo).
they already said that having a gb rom will not have a great battery life... it's all still being refined, so have some patience untill we have something close to perfect. also, have you tried different kernels? with imo's lean test 2.7.1, i've been getting pretty good battery life, but then again, everyone's phone is different.

Ahhh, I thought gingerbread was suppose to have far superior battery life than froyo. Didnt know it was in the tweaking phase.
As for me, I am getting atleast 10% less battery with bamf beta 5 than I was with perfect storm 1.3 with VERY light usage throughtout the day. Next imma try imo's lean kernal. If that doesnt help close the gap, I may be heading to perfect storm 1.5
But thanks for the replies guys, they helped
no problem, hope imo's 2.7.1 beta kernel helps you out with a bit better battery life, so far it's doing great for me
I'm actually getting better battery life with Gingerbread (das BAMF 2.0-5)
As of right now I'm at 12 hours 16 mins and 33 seconds on battery w/ 39% left:
display on 1h 45m
voice call 2h 11m
browser 33m
bluetooth 8h 12m
wifi 2h 19m
Froyo only got me around 11-12 hours before shut down with the same type of usage.

I am getting awesome battery life with GingerRemix. Try using Battery Calibration and do it a couple of times. On 3G, yesterday my phone lasted from 7:30am to 3am this morning after a day of moderate use. Haven't been in a 4G area recently.

Terrible battery life!

I really hate creating these threads because it makes me look likr a complete noob but I can' figire this out for the life of me. I bought the charge thinking I could use it for a day and change but I have yet to experience this awesome battery life. Even when I got my first day, the battery life was horrible and even after its first charge, it wasnt any better. Do I just have a bad battery or something?
Heres what I remember doing:
-Flash gummycharge day 2 of owning phone (1.8.5) novoodoo kernal
-An issue came up where I couldnt press my power button without the phone freezing
-so at this point I reverted back to a stock ee2 rom
-i then flashed gummycharged once again (same as above)
-after flashing, I charged my battey up, shutdown, wait for 100%, repeat 3x to wipe battery stats/calibrate my battery
So I unplugged my phone at 5:00pm and it is now 7:07pm. In two hours with about an hour of browsing, my phone is at 73%. I have nothing on any of my homescreens just to be sure it wasnt consuming the battery, cdma automatic instead of 4g lte since my area does not support it yet and manual brightness at 15%.

Download humble 1.25 and your battery woes will be no more my son....
Will take you suggestion and try it out tonight. I dont mean to derail my own thread but is it possible that when I flashed back to stock ee2, it caused my signal to decrease even though I put gummycharged over it later? Ever since I had to reflash because of the power button issue, I noticed a decrease in signal strength (from mid 80s to high 90s). Sorry for all the questions!

Hi,
I saw your Humble ROM and was considering installing it to try to improve battery life as we'll.
What about your ROM conserves battery over the stock rom?
Now that p3droid released 2.3.4 I will certainly have to try it, do you plan to make a version of Humble using this new base?
Thanks for your work, I really am loving this new phone!

If you are getting that bad of battery life, go to EE4 Debloated . Flash P&J OC Kernel. and Undervolt your phone.
Whay would be causing this kind of battery life though?

No telling, depends on how you use your phone and what apps are running.
Thats the thing. I haven't been doing anything other than browsing. I only went to class and browsed for maybe 2 hours max. Everything else is 2% ish other than the dolphin hd browser. If I look at the battery stats, the display is the only thing thats depleting the battery really. I'm starting to think its because I have weak coverage in my area.

I've had similar battery issues with two different Charge units running each ROM/Kernel (except GB). I also live in a weak coverage area where I average 1 to 2 bars, sometimes dropping to 0 and i'm convinced this has to be it. I had written this idea off initially because I previously had ATT and the same weak coverage with them, but nowhere near the same abnormal battery drain...so I guess there must be a difference between the way CDMA and GSM operate in this respect? I'm in a 3G only area and keep the phone locked to CDMA/Auto also.

I am running 1.25 and have had absolutely no improvement to my battery life (strong 4g area in SoCal).
I've just resigned to the fact that I'll get 6-7 hours (even on an extended battery, same results) and have to charge once or twice a day.
Coming from the fascinate I honestly think the battery life is better. Although I turned lte off since we don't have any coverage for it yet. My mind will probably change when we get it. Running stock ee4 rooted with voodoo kernel. My father is running the same thing and also came from the fascinate, he completely agrees.

I had really bad battery life on my phone running the stock rom and gummycharged. With the phone sleeping and only data on, I was losing at least 5% an hour.
I switched to Humble a week ago and my battery life is exceptional. I am ususally looking at 24 hrs with 4g on and longer with it off.
If you do a lot of browsing and keeping your screen on, your battery is going to burn quickly. No matter what ROM you are using. If it's draining a lot of battery in sleep, flash Humble.

Dude, this isn't the fix. I'll flash Humble 1.25 right now and prove to you that it doesn't fix battery issues. Yes, it's less of a battery hog than the other available ROMs, but flashing Humble 1.25 will not fix your battery gremlin.
I wish Danalo, imnuts and the other gurus would spend more time figuring out this battery gremlin. Charging your battery to 100% then wiping battery stats through CWR doesn't work either. I've tried it countless times.

Don't give up so soon. The battery life on the Charge can be amazing and I know from experience. My experience also shows that there are funky battery issues that pop up when flashing various crap. Flashing an Odin bundle has not worked for me, at all. Wiping battery stats has not worked.
I was running GummyCharged 1.5 with the PBJT kernel and voodoo enabled and got 17+ hours of medium-hard use EASILY. Since then, I flashed the original GB leak, Gummy, Humble, Stock... I cannot figure out what the heck is going on, my battery life is still crap.

It really sounds like signal issues to me. My Charge handles weak mobile signals better than my Thunderbolt, but any cell phone will really crank up the juice draw looking for a tower if it can't find one. In my north county office, my Thunderbolt will drain 25% per hour if I don't keep it near the window where it can get a better signal.
You need to post a lot more details.
Are you on wifi or mobile data? Are you 3G or 4G area? How strong is your 3G/4G signal?
Have you dug into the battery use screens to see what's up?
Grab Spare Parts from the Market if your ROM doesn't have it and look into it's battery statistics...things like wake-locks will really kill the phone.

Battery Life MR2 OTA BAMF 1.8.6

Has anyone else noticed terrible battery life running this combination? I don't think it's the Rom but I could be wrong. I always had good battery life on BAMF before.
I think it might be the radio but the other MR2s still give me reboots (not often, once a week) but the OTA version does not.
I tried clearing battery stats and I set up very conservative SetCPU profiles with no luck. I'm still using Adrenalyns kernel.
Any ideas?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I've noticed this as well. It lead me to buying an extended battery... Maybe ill flash back to MR2. The GPS locks so fast in the OTA radio though...
I've noticed quite the opposite. I'm running 1.8.6 remix however with OTA MR2. I've gotten on average about 32hrs of battery life (OEM extended battery).
I ran that setup, MR2 OTA and BAMF 1.8.6, with Iso's kernel on the extreme UV @ 1.4GHz speedtweak and I thought the battery life was phenomenal.
Thanks, I'll give that kernel a shot! I'll give you a thanks when I'm on my computer!
Edit: could you link me to the kernel I can't seem to find it.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
My battery life was fine on this combination. I was running it with the stock kernel.
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using Tapatalk
I'm using 1.8.6 and idling is great for me. Took the phone off the charger at 6 p.m. last night at 100% and stuck it in my purse. Went shopping, etc. Didn't use phone. This morning at 9 a.m. charge is 81%, even rebooted to make sure.
Screen takes a lot of power, also uses more when I am out and moving in and out of 4G, 3G, 1X, and no data.
I use Easy Profiles to switch me in and out of wi-fi as soon as I get home. Using the Das BAMF toolkit, I use the SmartAss governor between. .245 and 1.024 GHz. I thought I read somewhere not to use SetCpu if you had the toolkit as they interfere with each other.
I'm running Sense 3.0 RC4.9 with excellent battery life... cleared battery stats (make sure you do this properly, full discharge and charge), and using the smartass governer w/ dream kernel. One thing I've noticed about all custom roms in general, is that battery life gets better after the rom 'settles' for a day or two. I also don't use SetCPU with BAMF roms, that might be an issue like mentioned.
Also, what kind of signal levels are you getting? No matter what a weak signal will always kill your battery.
I am running this exact combo now.
I also have swap bumped up to 400MB. I have the DasBAMF throttler set to Powersave preference and capped at 1024Mhz.
Seems pretty good to me. Using stock regular 1400MaH battery. Nothing like m y old Nokia 5800 and it week long run time. But, that phone didn't do much, except text and make calls. Why did I trade it for the TBolt again?
I was on BAMF 1.8.6 for a few weeks... LOVED it...slickest ROM out there, most stable for a daily driver. Initially I had problems with the battery too. It was due to the fact that I had the display at the brightest like I did before with Plain Jane v3, but that killed the battery. As soon as I switched the display setting to auto-detect, my battery life was much better. It would last me a good 17-19hrs with 2-3 15min bump charges while in the car dock during the commute.
I've switched to BAMF RC4.9 last couple weeks, GB & Sense 3.0 is sweet, but 4G speeds were much better with with 1.8.6. RC4.9 I'm getting about 10mpbs down & 5mpbs up, with 1.8.6 I was consistently getting 20mpbs down & 10-12mpbs up.
Just make sure you turn your bluetooth, GPS, wifi off if you're not using it.
I've been using Imoseyon's lean kernel for about a day now and it seems to have helped a lot. I'm back up to about 14 hours with moderate to heavy use.
I believe i had good battery life when i was using this rom
- stock battery I would get 14-16hrs off of 1 charge (uptime)
- 4.5 - 5.5 hrs (awake)
- toolkit was set to smartass:245:1024

Anyone know any working battery tweaks for Valhalla rom? I came from ICBINB froyo and battery life seem to last much longer before.

No matter what gb rom u r on battery life is far more efficient then froyo u nd to use ur phone til battery dies charge over night till 100% 4200m and calibrate with battery calibration app from the market after that will take 24hrs or so to take effect and calibrate i have flashed all gb roms and all froyo as well and see a huge diff in battery life
FINALLY MADE THE SWITCH TO 2.3.4 AND LOVING IT!!!!!!
I notice that most of you guys are comparing GB to stock froyo, which is unfair because of the bloat ware and froyo is not at it's full potential. What I want to know is how froyo and gingerbread ROM stack up against each other in custom full custom ROM for battery life.
For all you guys on Valhalla. What is the max battery life you guys have gotten with this ROM?

First calibration, 32 hours with 4 hours screen on time.
So far for me, Froyo rooted, debloated, and running Juice Defender, has given me the best battery life, with just over 79hours as my record. That was with barely any use though. I usually get between 24 and 48 hrs with regular use though.
I've only been on Valhalla for a couple of days now, and with JD, I got 55 hours on this last charge with some light use, but I'm not sure it was started with a true 100% full battery.
Charging it now, and will see how it fares over the next couple of days.
Just posted about this on the GB V6 Tweaks thread....had 29% batt left after 44 hours with Dsex UV settings and V6 tweaks flashed over Valhalla....posted screenshot at link below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17317691&postcount=254
Also just in case anyone was wondering, if you want to use dsexton's UV settings, you need to flash his v6 tweaks. I tried his uv settings without the tweaks, and my phone froze up, lol.
Trying a new set of mild UV tweaks right now, hopefully I'll get through a full charge without problems.
I don't think you need an app from the market to recalibrate your battery. There should be an option in CWM recovery to clear the battery data. The phone should then recalibrate over the next few charges.

so is Gingerbread or Froyo better for battery life on the charge?

Which is better for the charge?
About same. No huge difference. I have a spare so I don't worry too much about it.

but is there any kernal out that support OC and undervolting? i cant seem to get SETCPU to work.
Technically Gingerbread manages everything better than Froyo and is better for battery life but because of all the ROM's and kernels available to us it's really a toss-up. I personally run Gummycharged Gingerbread because it is ridiculously fast, supports everything, and is great on battery. On a previous Gummycharged GB I was able to pull 2 days on a single charge with light-normal usage; like doing everything except playing games.

excellent life for me on Gummy GB, i get a full day on average depending on what I do though let me clarify a 'day' for me is about 16+ hours from when I get up till I get home and/or go to sleep... either way I think even with OC/UV on froyo I do better on GB but I always end up back on froyo for the themes lol
I've had better battery life on GB than on Froyo. It's anecdotal, but it's what I've observed. On top of that, Juice Defender works on GB, so you can make the battery that much better. With JD Ultimate with some aggressive settings and careful use, I could pull a day and a half out of the battery.

Glad to hear you make the differentiation and say JD works on GB... I run a rooted Froyo and tried JD last week. The data radio would not come back on when I brought the phone out of sleep state. Had to re-boot to get data back.

You're right that it does not work on Froyo. There's a bug tracker on the Latedroid website about it. They said last week that it would never work with Charge on Froyo due to a "terrible bug" as they put it. I've tried different combos of ROM and radio on the phone and the problem has nothing to do with the radio and everything to do with the Charge Froyo Touchwiz implementation.

You couldn't have failed anymore in this statement. For a lot of reasons. First of all, users that experience major battery issues with Gingerbread fail at flashing or calibrating the battery. Second of all, you're comparing it to a completely different phone! That isn't even a Charge! How can you even put that on our forums? Troll elsewhere.

You couldn't have failed anymore in this statement. For a lot of reasons. First of all, users that experience major battery issues with Gingerbread fail at flashing or calibrating the battery.

Nothing could be further from the truth. Battery life on GB is much better as well overall performance .

I have tried a few EE4 & a few GB ROMs & I don't see much difference in battery life myself.
GB is certainly not WORSE than FROYO & may be slightly better. The difference is really negligible however, all ROMs get basically the same battery life - it is the kernel that can make a difference & even then it isn't all that much.

And honestly it depends on your usage, if i just check for text messages once or twice an hour for the day, from 7AM - 5PM, i can have 44% Battery life left.
If i use some web browsing, and am texting every 30 mins or so, i'll be down to 20% Battery by 5PM.
If im watching youtube vids and using 4G, i'll be barely getting by at like 5% battery by 5PM.
I've tried danalo's HumbleComb ROMs, both -Froyo and -Gingerbread based. I believe he used IMoseyON's kernels on both ROMs.
I've battery tested both (battery consumption while fully configured and sitting idle - email and other minor background bandwidth consumers), and the battery drain was basically identical between the ROMs.
I saw a static drain of 2%/hour on both ROMs, which would be almost 2 days of battery life if the phone sat idle with minor background consumption.
With moderate use, I can easily make a full day on either HumbleComb ROM.
danalo's ROMs are pretty darned fast, to boot - Quadrant scores of 2040 on my HC4 GB loaded phone (Note: The Quadrant scores were faster before all my stuff was loaded on the phone).
And, danalo's HC4 GB ROM is pretty darned fast to boot, too - slightly under a minute (The -Froyo based ROMs were closer to 2 minutes).
Cheers,

I added the emphasis. I don't believe the author will mind.
