[Q] Battery performance of ARHD4.1.x

This is my battery performance using ARHD4.1.7 on Htc Sensation. Faux kernel. On standby. Intellimand setting 192M, 1.51G. Data connection off most of the time, just GSM 2G. It is using on average 2% per hour, not good. Also I am using extended battery with specs 2430mAH(I doubt it, more like 1900mAH).Anybody got a better result than this?

What battery app is that?

It is called Battery Monitor Widget, availible in the android-market.

Here is mine.
Stock Battery, not using any 3G Internet, only wifi.
wifi running stats was 4h 29m. display - 1h 30m.
I think it's poor performance will do proper battery stats wipe today and post results after

I think your battery is fake it should be less than 1950mah.

Here is my battery stats from another thread. I think my question would be...... what are you expecting for your battery life?

Ok, even though I JUST downloaded it, that battery monitor widget app is AWESOME! It is EXACTLY what I've been looking for, even since my Vibrant days! It basically tells you EVERYTHING you want to know about your battery. Or MULTIPLE batteries! I can't wait to figure out everything this app can do! Download it. Now.

Will try to calibrate battery and then do another measurement.

How do you calibrate the battery ?

It has instructions in the app.

What did you do to get such a drastic difference in your battery performance? Just the calibration??

Do a full charge, wipe battery stats, drain battery to less than 10%, then full charge again.

Thanks! I will give it a shot.

Battery performance of AHRD4.1.10 after first battery calibration cycle. Moderate usage with data connection always on(wifi or 3g). I use the phone to read this forum, web browsing and took some pictures. Power mode = high performance, sleep mode = auto.

I could tell you haven't used the phone for a while before actually using it in the graph you could see the axis are steady straight and then once you started, they started dropping. Battery life GREATLY depends on your location (signal strength) and how you use your phone, no phone usage is the same, as well as brightness even if auto brightness is enabled, I might be in an dark room while your outside, you'll consume more battery life.

Show off your battery life!

Haven't seen this thread in our forum so apologies if there is one deep down somewhere but a lot of people have concerns about their battery life. I thought it would be good to get people showing how long their battery lasts.
Please share a screenshot, the name of your ROM and anything else you have done such as radio/kernel changes.
I would share mine but my battery is still in the process of dying!

Hey dan-fish, wanted to create a post about battery life but then i found this.
Could u maybe edit your post a bit? like adding a poll and changing it from 'battery life' to 'screen on time'(which i believe should be a major battery eater) as battery life alone would be a bit deceiving as i can leave my phone in deep sleep for days, and my mom will come asking me after seeing the poll is it something wrong with her phone because she charges it daily.
But i however do notice that i can drag the battery life as long as i am conservative on the sceen on time. of course there are many other major factors in terms of screen on such as duration of the screen(battery heats up and drains faster), reading news or playing a video or a game, downloading, deep sleep, wakelock and so on.

When I get to a computer I shall

It may be something you may have done.
Did you by chance flash some tweaks on top of zeus?

is this 5 days battery life like even with data and wifi on and if so is it with the ics theme added or no and if yes what are you guys doing and what battery are you using to achiueve this insane battery

In my experience the only way to get that kind of battery life is to basically not use it much. Which defeats the purpose of carrying it around. I use the internet quite heavily, text occasionally, gps, bluetooth and wifi typically stay off and with that usage I might be able to squeeze out a day and a half. Just my experience.

I agree Zeus has excellent battery life, 2-3 days all the time. I will say that I had to reflash Zeus once because I couldn't seem to get more than 6 hours out of the battery, I just chalked it up to a bad flash.

I'm having bad battery life too...I get good battery on the first day after a reboot or something but after that its back to 10 hours

The sudden discharge of the battery could possibly indicate A issue with the battery itself. If it's new I would defiantly ask the seller for a replacement. I have Anker myself And It's never discharged like that before. I'd look into trying a replacement and see if that helps your issue! Best of luck.hopefully a new battery will fix the problem.

i used AOKP rom before and it has battery drain problem, maybe that causes the problem?
AOKP link
try with other ROM and see?

AOKP does cause more battery drain in my opinion but the battery dropping percentage so drastically or discharging isn't normal. I would defiantly look into getting a replacement battery. Anker has been a good battery for me. They should honor the return and if its new, replace it. Best of luck

Sent from my Sensation using xda app-developers app

you probably just have a defective battery, from the pics and what youre telling us (happens on every rom). what mAh do you get on a full charge? I have an Anker as well and it doesnt drain quite as fast as yours, even when I was on AOKP I would get around 13-14 hours light/moderate use. try another battery or see if you can get a replacement Anker from the seller you got it from. but from my experience, the Sensation in general doesnt have great battery life. my MT4G on the other hand...I could easily see 20+ hours

I´ve bougth a new Anker and used it until my Sensation turned off.
No Calibration, because it is crap to do it manually and just make it worst!
Then full charge it (better while Sensa is turned off) and you will reach about a day and 5 or 6 hours on moderate usage (2-3hours screen on).
After 4-5 charge cycles you´ll get about 1 day and 17 hours.
If not, you should listen to the others above and send it back.

Hey,
How good is the Anker battery compared to stock battery? Does it really last 25% longer?

Well it's definitely better then stock however I remember I used to reach the 3h mark screen on time, but if you guys talking about stanby it's okay I guess I can get up to 16-22 hours

The redemption rom is pretty good on battery but since the I4G has a small battery to begin with I would suggest using a vanilla rom/aokp and turning off mobile data, wifi, etc when it's not needed

I feel sorry for you guys. I don't know how you people use smartphones and can't figure out how to max your battery life. Turn off data, wifi, bluetooth, and gps when you are not actively using them. Always on mobile data is a killer. Disable all push notifications. And the biggest one is set custom automatic brightness adjustment. I set mine manually most of the time because stock, particularly with sense, is way too high. Even in a pitch black room it won't dial the back light down to minimum.

From my experience, you could try the Virtuous rom with sense 3.5, it has pretty good battery life.

I've had my Inspire for a year and two months aprox., still with the stock battery. On GB the best battery life I had was on Virtuous Affinity 2.05, MIUI 2.4.20, and CM7.2 with LC's kernel. Also, IceColdSandwich 8.6.1 has given me a pretty good battery life. Yesterday I flashed JellyTime R12 and can't talk too much about this one. Always remember the basics, turn off stuff you are not using. And remember, every phone is different so the best way to know is to flash yourself and test for a few days.

This is the best I've gotten on aospx br7

I recently switched to Sabsa Prime 6.0 from ARHD 6.3.2 and battery life has a noticible improvement, as well as performance. Plus it's working ICS.

I don't know if it's my usage or what..None of the ROM gave me battery life of more than a day.Right now due to lot of chatting,i hardly get a day backup.
Used Existz's AOSPX,IceColdSandwich and now finally on Sabsa Prime v6.0

I am a moderate to heavy user and I work in a poor coverage area. All roms I have used, FroYo, GB, ICS, AOSP or Sense, get me to lunch. I plug in while on my break and that will get me home. I never go anywhere without car and wall chargers. Use it how you want. With the size of the battery and the size of the display, you won't get a lot of use between charging.
Not just a pretty Pickle.
