Rooting is completely different . Not related with you battery juice.
1. So in case u want to extend your battery life switch off your data connection/WIFI when not in use as it uses most of the battery. When on 2G/3G battery drains like hell.
2. Turn of sync which also eats most of your battery.
As far as juice defender is concerned i personally didn't find that much of a difference using it. Set up is not that difficult either. Just install and use it. Not sure about the error you are getting.

+1 for Deep Sleep battery saver. I have it on all my devices. It saved quite an amount of battery for me.

hi bro
do as what i do in the pics
Settings=>Applications=>Mange Applications=>All=>You will see so many apps only the (chat,games,apps you downloaded yourself you don't use them at that moment )=>Force Stop
example:play store,yahoo,browser...=>Force Stop when you don't use them
After every restart your phone some apps automatically open again=>Force Stop
Data,WiFi,Bluetooth when you don't use them turn off them
some say black wallpapers use little bit less than color wallpapers pixels
don't use any launcher it use your battery so much because you run them
battery life apps it's all fake only you root maybe it will use less
(i use international stock firmware version it asia frimware and it's has so many apps from stock and automatically become open and it's not good eat my battery in bad way better for this to use some firmware that orginal with support of your country language and less apps)

1) turn off wifi/mobile-data when not in use. Also, turn off autosync when not connected
2) Use 2g instead of 3g when net speed isnt an issue .. most browsing/messaging will work almost the same on 2g or 3g ... 3g uses a lot lot more battery juice compared to 2g/wifi
3) Turn off automatic location reporting by google maps
4) If you do all above, you can save more battery juice by uninstalling all battery saving apps and task killers

im running kg6 icbinb but i feel like im using it too much, i use it for music, work out for like an hour and text heavily and facebook and youtube... i tried juice defender but it made me loose my connection most of the time...
Juice defender turns off your data connections when the screen turns off, so that's probably what is happening. The paid version lets you maintain connections with specific apps you choose, but you may want to try other battery saver programs to see if there is a free one with app control.
Alright lol thanks man!!

Hey guys I would just like ppl opinion on the various battery saving apps that are available on the market.
Do you think they actually work? best apps(in your opinion) and best configuration to save most battery.
I have juice defender and and it always says that it is saving me somewhere around 1.6 but I'm not totally sure that that is the case.
I have not had it installed for the last couple of days and my battery doesn't seem to be noticeable y worse than when it was installed
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I have stopped using them. I have think it depends in how a person uses their phone to start with. All of those options, can be done manually. I personally got tires of switching to different profiles for what I was doing. I haven't noticed much difference myself.
but, that is just my experience.

Yes well that's the way I'm going I think. They taking up space and memory on phone and not really getting any noticeable benefit from having them installed.

The battery on my phone is going iPhone-ish, I need one of the battery saving apps, Are there any decent ones yet?
I would try Bataria from the market. Its free, and doesn't use much resources to do its job. I think the best is to manually adjust different settings on your phone. Same results, nothing running in the background to do it.
I am using Greenpowe.
Battery apps are usually crap. The only ones that really work are the ones that modify how your phone's software works. And those almost always require root access.
If by chance you are rooted, I recommend SetCPU, Autostarts and Autokiller. SetCPU will allow you to set profiles such as throttling while the screen is off, which will save you a ton of battery. Autostarts will stop custom apps from starting with your phone's OS, which leads to less background processes. And Autokiller will ensure that you have plenty of free memory for less tasks being killed and restarted. That alone has the potential to make a huge difference in your battery life.
I'm not trying for snarky, but
An app can't save battery by running
But you can save battery by turning something off

I totally agree.
My uncle uses juice defender, but I think it's better for the battery to manage everything yourself.

yeah I've been using Juice Defender. It does save some battery life.
If you have a horrible phone like mine, juice defender ultimate works wonders. My LG optimus m gets about 12 hours of life without it, and about 18 hours with it.

Upgraded to JB yesterday.. may i ask for your battery opinion on the new JB rom?
Sent from my GT-P6200 using XDA Premium HD app
About the battery, mine lasted yesterday for about 4hrs only. WiFi on and always browsing the Internet. And it's in the Airplane Mode. Jelly Bean is a RAM Hog unlike ICS, but RAM was increased to 828 MB. So yea. I downloaded Juice Defender Ultimate and see if it works and I hope it will work.
Deep sleep run well in mine
Sent from my GT-P6200 using xda premium
i had some trouble with mediaserver eating battery when restoring backup after wiping data. but only for a while, after that everything are back to normal. i do think that battery lasted somewhat longer with jellybean. probably 1/2 - 40 minutes longer on normal use, not much to mention, but there are differences. btw, i think you should do a clean data wipe after flashing with firmwares that are not made for your region. on mine, without a clean wipe, the battery life would go crazy.
It's slightly better than ICS. I'm now at 30% after 4 hours and 30 minutes of non stop usage which includes heavy gaming and with wifi turned on. GPS was also turned on for a while. Standby is amazing. My average 4-5 hours == 1 percent damage has been improved to 6-7 hours.
Note:
Debloated
Disabled some apps on start-up
Greenified
Also the new power saving mode actually works quite well.

I'm sorry I don't remember what apps I debloated because I usually delete the backups made by the NoBloat app. I saved around 130MB more or less. As far as I remember here are some of the apps:
2 Accu Widgets
Music Hub
Reader's Hub
Kobo Books
Zinio
Samsung Apps
SamsungsAppsUna2
Other Widgets that were 3-6MB [or reaching an MB] in size.
SNS
Apps that I find no use to and are not related to important the system.
As for the apps I disabled at start-up are mainly my apps that I don't need to run or has no use to run at start-up except for Sidebar Pro,Greenify and the likes. Some system apps like Software Update, World Clock, Some Google Apps. Seriously though, it's much more of a preference. You may use some of the apps I disabled. As long as it's not as important as SystemUI, you can pretty much turn it off. I suggest you use the ES Task Manager's Startup Manager and click Optimize. Then reenable some apps that you need and vice versa.

yes my batt is much better on JB than on ics, my tab has been pon stand by mode for almost 2 days and batt is still around 45$.
Does Easy Battery Saver or Juice Defender and similar apps really conserve battery for android?? Im using Galaxy S3 on stock os 4.1.2. Thanks guys.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
actually, they kill the background apps (usually unnecessory) which drain the battery...
so they can save battery but usually some system apps are also killed which restart at every boot
Edit: a better way of saving battery is freezing system apps that u dont use and undervolting or underclocking (both need root - search your device forum for more info)
help please? what is the best battery saver?
Use greenify and disable auto sync. Basically no app is magic that can increase your battery capacity,
Greenify hybernates apps and prevent wakeups and disable auto sync prevent apps from updating every hour or so.

no, greenify works on ics, i'm using it on svhd
i also use battery doctor.. i dont know it works or not, i like placebo effect
I´m also using Greenify but in addition to that i use Profiles in the settings that automatically switch from 3g to 2g when i´m connected to my home or university wifi.
In my opinion a very efficient battery saver.
From my personal experience with Greenify :
Its indeed good at battery saving, however I experienced phone become unreachable while been untouched for about 3h, phone signal seems to be okay, however nobody can call me nor I can receive messages. It is barely unnoticeable since you text or call anyone, then signal seems to be refreshed.

Juice Defender Ultimate =) increases my battery up to 2 to 3x... =)
use one power guard. but it wot help that much
also if ur rooted, opt for sense roms
I'm using the app called Carat, it detects which app is using your battery. Works fine but do not expect 5 days...
