I'm using CM10, and so far it's been great. I've had no problems. One feature I like the most is that you can respond to texts when you're not even on the MMS app.

Almost 3 full days. Not a single sleep of death. Battery life is on par with cm9. My only issue is a slight lag when unlocking the screen (about a quarter of a second)
It's a daily driver.

I find battery usage the biggest problem, can't even manage to make a half day with 3G data connection ON.
Web usage may be limited to max of 2hours. CM9 was better for battery for me could get a day with moderate usage.
Any body facing similar problem to me ? :banghead:

CM9 did not have Google Now, turn that off and you will see a huge difference.

[Q] Modems Kernels and other such things

Ok whats the best most stable modem for the Infuse? Like in terms of speed, network stability and battery life. Also was wondering if flashing some kind of kernel would improve anything.

Nope. Used it for 2-3 days and wifi actually works good. Everything is good, except for the battery drain. KI3 works best for me.

Cm9 battery life issue

Hi. I have recently flashed cm9 on my galaxy s 4g,and it's amazing. My only major issue Is that the battery drains from 100% to 0 in less than 4 hours with lite use. Is there something I'm forgetting to do or is it a typical issue? Thank you

I've already tried that. I'm still having the same issues.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Unfortunately, it could be a number of known "usual suspects", such as apps or possibly a 'rogue' app, signal strength (the more the phone has to seek connection, the more battery drain), try swapping your SIM, settings to help maintain acceptable battery discharge, wifi, Bluetooth, GPS, sync, are just a few things that could be the cause. You can try a full charge to full discharge until the phone powers down, then while off, charge fully and power back on to clear battery stats. Could be your battery as well...

Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Check the cpu scaling governor. Usually 'ondemand' will do a decent job of conserving battery power.
Also you can use the 'top' command from the terminal emulator to check for processes hogging the cpu.
Moved to Galaxy S 4G Q&A section. :good:
Battery calibration is a debunked myth.
AudioOut_1 suggests keypad clicks, or some other alert sound. Try reading the BBS thread for suggestions, posting your logs there if you're still puzzled.

I noticed a significant difference between the battery life of CM7 and CM9. 7 is really good with battery life. 9, however, shows the SCREEN as being the main drain of the battery...even if it's been on my desk all day.

Happy New year and peace all oder the World!
Its a well known issue with the S2's. Only reboot when necessary. Clearing battery stats does nothing. It calibrates itself

App that helps battery?

Are there any apps out there that LEGITIMATELY help save/prolong battery life? I have memory booster running but that just helps my phone run smoother by killing cached app processes. Anything you guys can recommend?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
This phone requires it's own nuclear power plant lol.
Seriously though, don't use memory boosters. They kill battery.
My setup is, CPU Tuner with timeriffic to set display brightness. With Maz's latest kernel I can get by... mind you I live in a very bad signal area (2 bars if I am lucky).
I set cpu to 216 when screen off with performance governor. Also I turn off data and Wi-Fi when screen turns off.

Sure, but be careful with it. I once it accidentally to low enough power to where I could not get out of screen off (kept going back to screen off). Also using one cpu does not work.

Would, but only two cpu states will be accessible... fairly useless.
Edit: you need voltage states for intermediate voltages, then it should work. But I have never seen a non OC kernel with granular voltage definition.

Antutu battery saver is genius. on the pulldown notification it gives battery % (+battery added)
so like 100%((+30)
also clean master (which is a memory booster) doesn't run in background so it doesn't deplete battery as much as some others
Sent from my LG-P999
i installed android booster, but also procured a brand new stock battery, and i actually am enjoying about 50-60% increase in battery life... although it still is not a lot (as far as i'm concerned!) after draining it, recharging to 100%, and then calibrating, i went 7 hrs 47 mins from 100% to 50% with normal use - calling, texting, some video, some gaming. not to bad considering my old battery would only last about 3 hours or less with the same kind of usage!!!

Battery

Is this normal? Battery with just 1 hour already 87%? I mean, I've seen some screenshots of this phone lasting almost a day and still with 10% but mine reaches 8h with 20% already, what could it be? My phone is just 2 months old, is rooted, the bootloader is locked, that's all.

You need to dig into your apps and see what's causing the battery drain.

What is your screen-on time?
Greenify hibernates open apps. So it's similar ti iOs multitasking. App startup may take a littlt longr, but once you switch from one app to the next, the first one will end instead of staying in the background. I have big battery drains when ever I used google music with all the background tasks music is starting. So is witched to poweramp for music. You can even set arotation lock in poweramp.
My battery usually drops by 1 % per 45 minutes if the screen is off.
What I have though is, that if I reach about 35% battery after about 2 days, the batterry level drops significantly faster. So if I am on 35 %, it's getting time for a recharge. I never get a 3rd day out of my battery.
My battery barely last a day, I use Smart Actions and still no changes

This was today, battery lasted me since I went to college on the morning. I think it was because there was a "moderate use" of it, I did surfaced the web a little, used apps like Twitter, I think today was ok, although this is not the same when on Wi-Fi.

For that amount of screen-on time, your battery life seems about right.
I think it was the settings I changed on Smart Actions, it has really helped my battery life last longer so far.
