can anyone suggest me a good cm7 based rom which has a good battery life with decent performence ??
because i cant find anyrom which gave me battery life of more than 12 to 14 hrs!! :crying:
thanks in advance
> Mine barely last 1 day and 12hrs
buy an old phone that has battery bigger than the phone, smartphones lasts 2 days if they have a big battery,
I use neko's ICYSNAP 1.6 and I am satisfied with battery life, 1-2 days, and my battery isn't new
search forum for tips to have a good battery life, or try/test another roms with different kernels
or:
turn off any location service, turn off bluetooth, turn off mobile data, turn off 3G, turn off wi-fi use them only when you need them in rest turn them off

Hello friends ,
It have been 2 weeks since i got my universal (o2 xda exec) , I have tried most of the WM6 roms here , but most of them dont give good battery life..
Anybody know which is the best ROM with Best battery life? or any tips how to improve the battery life?
I usually read books and rarely hear music and i have 4 apps installed and i find the battery drain fast within 3.5hours. For this reason i turned off the phone and wifi. My uni is a new one , i dont want to have the charger all the time with myself.. I go places , do please help me..
Thanks in advance
battery life is awfull and unpredictable
I have the same problem. I use the same crossbow 2.12.08 version
with update radio ( from 1.15 ) to 1.18
I have a larger battery 3200 mAh, but th ebattery life is never more than one day. Though the battery is brandnew...
Worse is that when charging sometimes it shows 100% but most of the time this drops within a few minutes ( 2-4 ) to 97%
Then after 1-2 hours it is on 60% while usage is minimal. no WLAN, no BT
Also sometimes for some reason the battery is very warm ( during loading ).
When disconnected it turns out the universal is almost empty. Tried to disconnect the battery and leave it outside for 5 minutes then back in. but nithing seems to really improve. Also without memory card the results are more or less the same. Also always I close the applications fully.
Maybe someone can tell me what are the possible reasons...? Is is the software. Does it not see the actual charge correctly? Or is there a "hidden"battery user. Read the article about leds and all that, but this is way out of that league.

I think that your battery is no good. My battery is 2 years old, it's the original battery 1650mAh and the battery life is 2.5 hours with WiFi enabled (internet navigation via WiFi)
If you want your battery to last longer, check the wiki:

Before blaming ROMs check the device with another battery. I had the same problem too, checked several ROMs and even downgraded to WM5 and at the end it appeared that my battery simply dies, while my other battery showed far better lifetime.
You are definitely having a battery issue rather than ROM. I am using 2.1.2.08 also and can get 3 days of normal mixed use from my original 1620mah battery.
Why not try "resetting" the battery, as discussed in previous forums, I for one can testify to it's success.
hi all,
i know the battery life of the sensation isn't that great but I make 5 hours with about 1 hour of spotify (music streaming) some browsing and email checks. Also installed couple of apps but that's it.
(3g on when wifi not availible)
This just does not seem normal to me? Would like to hear your opinions.
running on:
stock battary
android revolution HD, feux kernel.
Wow, just 5 hours and your phone dies? That is AWFUL. Something is going on there, have you tried another rom?
maybe your rom is not very compatible with your radio? I am on InsertCoin (always latest) and I changed the energy mode from "maximum performance" to the middle option (don't know the name right now) and reactivated auto-sync and I can use the phone for 1.5 days on normal use. (so on gameplaying or benchmarking all the time) =)
Call HTC and have them to send you a new battery.You get one free replacement.just let them know that you're only 5 hours of life out of it.
Thanks for the replies all,
@KAwAtA,
i've only had stock and my current both ware equally ****ty.
@brandi,
I did flashed the radio that was mentioned with the android revolution ROM, do you have any suggestions?
@dunbar28205
Mabey your right, I'm starting to believe this isn't normal I did already purchase a mugen power 1950mah battery though. Will keep this updated with my findings on that one.
Is your governer on "performance"? Or is your second core somehow forced on?
battery works great for me im at 12 hours of run time and im around 50% left. check your rom and basic settings that kill battery. I also have an anker battery so that helps but really i think its the kernel and rom thats making all the difference

God, that's awful...and sounds oh-so familiar...
Try checking out my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351430
Maybe it helps... Sadly, one would think you get a functional device bought from the store, but all this technology is still a bit new and shiny, so it takes a lot of tinkering to get the most out of your device... It's what I've been doing with my phone for the last month, and it's a work in progress, but so far I've made some improvements
No solution works for everyone, as everyone uses their phone differently in a different environment... So all I can say is read my thread, keep reading XDA and the best of luck on your quest
P.S. That new battery will also help... I bought 2x Chichitec 1930mAh Evo 3D batteries and stuck them in my Sensation, although they are really just 1730mAh (false advertising, meh...or I just got a bad set of batteries?) I've seen a slight improvement over the stock battery
Damn man that sucks. I was having the same issue except I was average 10 hours with pandora usage, and moderate emails/txt/mms etc ....
I flashed the latest ARHD 3.6.7 XE. I followed the proper batter calebration thread on this forum (don't have the link) and after a full charge the next day, I average roughly 19 to 23 hours on a full charge. I'm still at a very moderate usage with pandora/streaming/mms/txt/blah blah blah you know the deal. I am extremely impressed. I'm on stock battery btw. I'm probably going to hook up that aweseom 1900mha battery from anker. I should be pulling over 24 hours no problem after that.
What I do also is when I initially set up ARHD I turn off fastboot in the power menu, I turn off "quiet ring on pick up", "pocket mode", and "flip for speaker" in the sound menu, and I ESPECIALLY turn off the automatic boot up of the task manager as task managers are useless from android 2.2+ and can cause conflicts that drain more battery. You can turn off boot up of task manager in the applications menu. That's pretty much it I don't know what else to say other than I'm doing awesome on stock battery atm.
Try a different kernel. I'm using bricked 1.5. First charge got me 14 hours so far at 31 percent. After the first charge run it to 5 percent and charge full. Rinse and repeat a total of three times and also don't forget to go into recovery and wipe battery stats.

I don't know about you guys, but there's so many threads on EVERYTHING, it's pretty damn hard to find some information on here
Oh well, now I'm just rambling... Enjoy
5 hours is really awful. Got 2 days with moderate use with the energy ROM. I would try to calibrate and maybe buy a anker 1900 mAh
What version of ARHD are you running on? 3.6.5 and 4.1.6 had battery issues..
Buy another battery, or ask for replacement. I had 5-8 hour battery life with my original stock battery on stock ROM, bought Anker battery on amazon, I get 40-50 hours now.

Thanks a ton! I checked it out but isn't it correct that when you flash a rom the battery is auto calibrated? Battery monitor widget Pro says my voltage is:
min 3386 max 4209. Does that give reason to calibrate the battery?
thanks again everyone for all the help
I used to suffer from this issue too. After doing some research I found out that the kernel is the problem.
Try Bricker 1.5 as Galaxa12 suggested and you should notice a massive improvement in terms of battery life.
Also do some digging in Daemon Controller (tip as others suggested: Governor).
Ofc battery calibration is important, but you won't archive better battery lifetime after calibration.
I have a Nexus S with a jellybean stock ROM. Batterylife is currently very poor. I only can do like 5-6 hours on one charge. When you google on battery life Nexus S you see that many people have this problem as well.
I was wondering if I root the phone and install Cyanogenmod if battery life should be better. Any comments?
It depends on how do you use your phone and on your battery's state.
With cyanogen (CM stock kernel) I do 2-2.30 of screen usage, 30-60 minutes of calls, 30-40 minutes of navigation and minimum 30-40 whatsapp messages ( I have disabled all syncronization services except those fo Google)
Well, I have a ns4g and I would say it depends on your usage. I'm getting about 2.5 hours of screen time. If I disable sync & data and such it idles pretty well but I also have 3 accounts that I sync. JB is definitely worse than ICS, where I didn't really need to care that I own 3 chargers and 2 spare batteries.

How long have you used the phone? If its more than 1 year and a half (like me), I just did something that gave me a better battery life.
wait for it..
I bought a new battery. no kidding. I got 13 hours battery life with 2 hours of screen on time. All Stock, like you
Hi,
I have the Sensation and been having lots of problems with battery life lately.
These are the issues which I experienced:
1) Sometime on mobile data but also Wifi the battery can go down 2% per minute even with normal usage and not particularly bad signal. What could it be ? In general the battery life has been bad .. the mobile will last between 4 and 8 hours in standby.
2) Since flashing a RIL update from the Sensation forum .. the issue of not being able to "search for networks" was indeed fixed, but now often mobile data does not connect if Wifi is out of range / disconnected. I need to go airplane mode and back - disabling and reenabling data is not enough. Any tips on possible resolutions ?

I dont understand why the sensation has so Bad batterylife I used a Motorola defy before and had 5 days battery life without wlan bud with the sensation I get only 1.5 days
?
The problem is most likely your battery. With the original one mine would last about 1 hour playing games, now I bought a new one and I don't even know how long it lasts because it has never gone empty.

I habe 3 1x Anker 1x original an one noname and none of them last longer than one day ... In the sensation specs it says 400h standby newer saw a Screenshot with so much i am testing a New Rom on the defy and right now it says 7 days and 7 hours... And in the defy specs it says 200+ standbytime

Most likely it is your battery.
CM10.2 is also a battery consumer.
I used that ROM too, now with CM11 (20140117SultanXDA rom) it consumes also a lot of the battery, but there are some options to get better life.
I have bought an Anker 1900Mah battery and that is a world of difference.
Besides that I unchecked the option in settings -- WiFi -- Advanced settings -- "scan always available"
Now I last about 16 hours with normal usage.
If you read this thread you will find more usefull options and advices.

I've also just bought the Anker 1900Mah battery (from amazon). So much better than the HTC battery I had previously. To be fair it was getting pretty old.
I find with cyanogenmod especially I get pretty bad battery life, towards the end was getting about 12 hours of minimal use (just texting and occasionally web browsing). With the Anker battery I'm getting at least 2 days and I'm using my phone more.
Hi guys recently i have updated to 4.4.2 and my battery is draining fast like 13 hour with 6 hours screen on time ..... Is it normal or i am having battery drain issue ??
Are you crazy? 6 hours of screen on time is super amazing- you've got an awesome battery. If you are looking to extend your battery life even further then I suggest rooting your phone (if you haven't already done) and use greenify. Other than that, just turn your brightness down and manage your radios efficiently. As far as I can see you have amazing battery life. Do you game or do you just tend to go on YouTube, reply to texts etc...?
