High battery drain using JB ROM - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hai..
Im just switching to AOSP JB by AdamG Version 0.1.4.
No mod, stock AdamG ROM kernel, full wipe, just install few app such as whatsapp, cpuspy, medscape etc...this is not my daily phone..
the problem is very high battery drain..
in 4 hours battery drop from full charged to 69%..
Here the screenshot and BBS stats...Can somebody help me please to find the culprit??

Is Google Now on? it takes a ton of battery.

You need to install a better app. The Android built in power usage thing is about as much use as a chocolate teapot, and better battery stats isn't much better.
Try system panel from Play, you will need the paid version from here. Put it in monitoring mode and leave it for a few hours.
You will be able to see what is chewing CPU then, and that is invariably the thing that is causing the drain. It very rarely fails to assist me with diagnosis of an obscure drain issue.

Ok..just bought system panel app.will update about this crazy battery drain later..

Cool, it's well worth the couple of dollars.
I've used it pretty much constantly in monitoring mode since they were in beta when I had my desire. So, probably not far off a couple of years usage with me.
It doesn't eat battery either, because it polls when the device wakes up for another reason.
And the thing which really makes it good for me, it records usage of the system tasks, such as kernel threads, which can be massively handy in diagnosing an issue.

Solved by flashing latest adamG ROM..
Thanks adam and thalamus..haha..enjoyed my nexus s back...:thumbup:

Which kernel am I running?

Hey all, quick question hopefully you all can help me out with. I am currently having terrible battery issues ever since I flashed my phone initially. Terrible as in 6 hours stand-by my phone would be dead.
Anyhow, I am just trying to figure out who's (which) kernel I am running. The kernel version is 2.6.35.7-I997RUXKG3-CL366622 . I have done searches but biggest problem is, threads usually do not post the version number for me to check what I am running.
I am on Infused 2.1.0 (thx GTG!), but battery life has been garbage on all ROMs so I am certain that is not the issue. Can anyone let me know, me love you long time.

Maybe u just have a bad battery 6 hours is horrible off stand by.
unless you have some other things running thats eating it up. when you check your battery stats whats eating the most power. Display? Android Proccess?

Problem is I bought 2 extra batteries and get exact same life. When I initially bought the phone I would get a days use surprisingly. After that, I have had nothing but god awful drain. I have had almost a dozen android phones and have never encountered such terrible battery life.
I do not have fetch data enabled/gps/widget updates or anything that would normally keep the processor/data churning while in my pocket. Battery use is usually around 40-80% on display, all other categories being minimal (which seems correct).
I'm banging my head on this one, I appreciate you guys replying to my thread

1% per 3 hours standby is FREAKING AWESOME..!!!!
Maybe u have some stray app in the background that's using CPU/whatever it is that's eating up ur battery.
Some subtle things u cud try since u said display is taking up 40-80% of battery:
1. Turning off screen auto rotation, turning it on when needed
2. Turning off auto brightness, turning it on to auto when needed
Use SetCPU like people above pointed out and this would let u see what processor states ur phone is spending most time in.
It sounds like for some people, Infusion 1.1 really flakes out. No clue why. I don't overclock so I don't run it.
It's either Infusion 1.1 flaked out, or if you continue having problems with other kernels, you have a rogue app.
Kernels rarely make any significant difference in battery life unless they're broken.

Are there any apps I could get that could monitor packets in/out from what I have installed? I have a lot of apps but most are from trusted sources
Running Infusion-GB 1.1 and Infused 2.1.0: I get 1% drain every 3 hours on standby with radio on (reasonable H+ reception) and 1% every 6 hours on flight mode.
It's most likely a defect in your phone or a configuration issue. You really have to be using your phone for at least 4 or 5 hours (screen-on time) over those 6 hours to cut through battery that fast.

when you go to settings > applications > running services - is there anything there that looks like it shouldn't be there?
i know that there is a process that starts with an "o" that is tied into media hub's protected content (DRM) - eats a ton of battery, and isn't really necessary.
it's also possible that you have the SNS service going, but constantly in a restarting state. this seemed to eat a lot of battery also.
otherwise, i'd do what others have suggested and monitor with CPU spy, and i'd also suggest an app called Better Battery Stats (not available in the market - find it here on XDA by a developer named chamonix). this will let you know if you have any wakelocks that are preventing your phone from reaching deep sleep when it is idle.
definitely sounds like you could have a wakelock or 2 interfering with your phone trying to get into those lower frequencies.

Packets in/out isn't what you want unless you also have unusual data usage too. It's wakelock stats you want - look at the BetterBatteryStats app. It used to be only on XDA but apparently it's on the market now.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - Wiping battery stats does NOTHING on our phone. Don't go blindly telling people to do something on our devices just because it worked on another device. The fuel gauge chip on GalaxyS series phones works in a very different way than HTC phones. (Exception: I think the GSII has a more traditional fuel gauge.)

How to save battery on nexus S

Hello there..
i just rooted my nexus S 9020T..i flashed CyanogenMod-7-08312011-NIGHTLY-NS,Build number GRJ90,Android version 2.3.5
my problem is the battery keep draining faster..
fully charged at 7.00AM..10% at 4.00PM
i using Juice defender ultimate (said longer my battery 1.5x)
please help me...
Juice defender is a waste IMO. You could try an undervolted kernel like matr1x or Trinity.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
I suggest teuv kernel by Trinity, best battery life I've seen.
The nexus is a battery hog, especially with all kinds of background apps people have like whatsapp and facebook. If you get Trinity, follow instructions and you wont news any outside monitoring app as the kernel is very good about ram and CPU allotment

There are numerous ways to increase battery life. Firstly, you(Android) do not need battery apps and task managers/killers.

any other tips how to save battery longer??
Any further tips after a new kernel and rom would be cutting on the use of the phone and are therefore meh. I want to use the phone, not use it less.
So Trinity is better than Netarchy???, what about Pete #5 which is built in Formels MIUI, so far this is the best Rom I have tried on my NS, stable and fast+good battery compared to the others, also I have my phone OC at 1.2G via Setcpu.
Set wifi sleep policy to never.
Turn off auto brightness
Turn off sync and just refresh your gmail manually when you need to and refresh your contacts from time to time. You still get app updates from the market with sync turned off.
Go through all your apps that update regularly (facespace, twitter etc.) and reduce the sync frequency to something that is acceptable for you. I don't need my twitter updating every 15 minutes and can just manually sync whenever I want.
EDIT: Turn off NFC.
... and buy one or two of these: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-1440m...TUEW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1316132022&sr=8-1
Make sure to condition them properly - it really makes a difference.
Wifi Sleep Policy to never fixed alot of my battery issues
Turning off NFC will do nothing as NFC does only consume power (like GPS) when used.

PROTIP: Stop using the phone so much. None of these tips are going to do squat if you're using the screen and wifi/3G all day.
Trust me on this. I easily get 12+ hours of use with battery to spare (usually around 30-40%) with the following usage:
NOTE: Matr1x Kernel with the stock undervolting settings, and TSM Pool Party ROM running on top.
The screen is on (a little over 1/4 brightness) with wifi/3g blasting, surfing bright white web pages for about 2-3 hours total. I may play 30 minutes of Furious Neornithes D), screw around on the market for a few minutes, check FB updates, etc. I also probably take/make about 10 short phone calls and send/receive about 50 texts. The remaining time, the phone sits in standby.
Not bad, considering the phone is beefier than most home computers from 10 years ago. Also worth noting: The battery scale isn't the most accurate thing in the world. Battery percentage drops off sharply up until about 60%, where it seems to level off.
So what's the best kernel to use???, Trinity or Trinity UV?, Netarchy?, Matrix?, is not only about the battery but also stability, doesn't matter if u can make ur phone last forever if u can't use BT while browsing cause the thing crashes so u either have to use one or the other.
As this is the save battery thread, there's only one answer: lowest voltage trinity kernel.

4.0.4 heavy battery drain

Hi,
Has anyone else had problems with the battery draining with the new 4.0.4 ? My GF Nexus S was still on 2.3.6 so I got the factory version of 4.0.4 and installed it. I obviously wiped the data/cache/etc. Also I rooted it with the latest superuser.
I'm running the latest nighly of CM9 and everything is perfect, so I thought it was time to give her the sweetness of ICS.
So with all that useless information, has anyone found a fix for the battery drain in 4.0.4?
Thank you,
WarpedMonkeys
Since I installed 4.0.4 my battery lasts up to 20 hours, no problem at all.
I'd suggest manual full wipe with fresh 4.0.3 stock rom and then manual ota update to 4.0.4.
I'm also using matr1x kernel, it's just awesome
Hope it helps
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA
Yeah, me too! Try another ROM. I am currently using CyberGR-MOD|NS.NGN ICS v10 HYBRID and getting superb battery life (and performance, mind you ).

Stock rom is ok, but updating with ota from 2.3.6 to 4.0.4 may lead to bad battery behaviour. Someone says that battery stats wipe could lead to better battery performances, but I think fresh install could do the trick

I can't really be more fresh than this. I'll try messing around with her settings, but if it doesn't get better, I'll just flash her the latest CM9 nightly
Check your battery usage, if Android OS is using more than 8-9% after some regular usage, then that's the cause.

A full battery cycle could do the trick. Don't let it die, anyway, because it can cause battery wear... Just take it to 10% and recharge it nighttime... You may also wipe battery data before, if you wish...

Heavy battery drain ??? i don't have any issues with it, infact i have not touched my phone for 1 day 6 hours and 25 minutes and my battery dropped from 95% to 82%. My phone was fully charged (didn't go higher then 95%). I am very impressed by the results.
I changed 2 settings:

2. Turn screen off after 30 seconds.

Hello,
my Nexus S was updated automatically to version 4.0.4. I will tell you. My problem is with data. Now I can not open any WWW page in default viewer,Opera sometimes opens some pages but quite rare. I can not get any email in K9 Mail. Update of Google maps took several hours, unfinished, eaten all my battery! Sometimes I am without signal or with bad signal.
It is for sure problem with 4.0.4 because I have unlimited data. So, no FUP in this case.
I was satisfied with 2.3.6. How can I do downgrade without rooting etc. my phone ?

kernel question

i have a quick kernel question, i have cm9 rom installed and i did some searching and found that changing the kernel could help with battery drain, so im needing 2 know if this actualy helps. with cm9s kernel my phone only lasted abt 6hrs from doing nothing but txting (i have no apps on my phone except batteryxl/2xbattery. im not using the pro ver as i do not buy apps, so my wifi is constantly turned on even after i shut it off manualy and turn data on), i flashed the team faq kernel and still see abt the same, if changing the kernel does help with battery life, what kernel would be the best 2 use? and if possible could you link me to it. i have searched the sgs4g section for kernels but havnt found many in the development forums.
(if a question like mine was asked/answered b4 i am sry 4 reposting, as i am still trying to figure the best setup 4 my phone that will last atleast a full day or longer from just txting)

Atm there aren't any ICS kernels besides those two. You can try to under clock to 600 or 800 MHz to get a little more screen on time. Its either that or go to a GB rom with known good battery life
First off, have you read some of the other threads on battery life and ICS?
Second, what do those battery apps actually do? They may be doing more harm than good. BetterBatteryStats will provide insight into why your phone might be draining so quickly.
Third, turn off the WiFi! Not clear why you have it on if you're only texting.
Sounds to me that if it isn't one of those, it's new-shiny-toy syndrome, or cruft from flashing (if you believe in gremlins)

I'm no expert in battery life of the moto g, i'm still trying to get used to the phone but for me having spent 1% per hour in a day with no use and those settings is pretty good, i mean if i go to sleep with 70%+ battery left, i don't even bother to charge the phone.
Sent from my Moto G using xda app-developers app
yes, <1,5% is good in idle but it can be better because for me, its 0,3-0,5%/h, sometimes only 0,1%/h (it means 0,6-3% max. for my 6 hour night)

Maybe the apps which you didnt greenify cause this battery drain ( not sure if this is a high drain as im using tweaky one Rom with faux kernel.. Maybe try to greenify those apps which you dont habe greenified now one after the other and tell us if it made a difference.. Also look in your settings if you disabled all things you dont need like print GPS etc.. Hopefully this helps

Would you recommend to greenify motorola services? I did once and couldn't check for updates and get it back working was a pain in the arse. I am currently having around 1% drain with wifi on 24/7 but once I had around 0.4 to 0.6%/h. Can't find wakelocks aswell, currently on stock kernel and rom.
I dont think that Motorola services darin mich battery..
I want the moderator to ban me.
downgrade your OS to make it work again.
