My sensation currently has a power drain that I can't seem to find the cause for. I'm using InsertCoin 3.4.2 with bricked kernel 1.5, using SPB shell 3D launcher, got an Anker battery, running tasker to cut data, wifi, gps, etc whenever the screen is off, setCPU running ondemand with max at 1536mhz and minimum 192mhz, etc, etc.
I fully charged my phone to 100% about two or three hours ago, and it's been pretty much left alone since. It's now down to 68%.
I've got BetterBatteryStats and SystemPanel, both showing nothing untoward, no active tasks, no wakelocks from what I can tell, etc. And according to the standard app for battery monitoring, it shows the various connections have indeed been turning off as intended, and the phone has been asleep nigh on all the time it's supposed to be.
Any ideas what's going on, or how I could look into it deeper?
I've just been playing with the phone pretty much non stop since I started this thread an hour ago, and the battery level is now at 60%. So that means it's actually consuming MORE power when it's not even in use!

Hi,
There is a lot of talk about battery consumption,and it's causes.
Most people will suggest trying a different kernel,or downclock it to 1.2 GHZ.
I've tried different kernels already, and underclocking the cpu seems to make little difference. As I say, setCPU should be knocking it down to 192mhz whenever the screen is off anyway!

Hi,
Is your ROM a 2.3.4 base or 2.3.5 ?
2.3.5 mate. It's InsertCoin 3.4.2, with sense 3.5 (which I'm not using in favour of SPB).

Hi,
I was going to suggest bricked 0.9.1 with a 2.3.4 ROM,because my son has had great results on his Sensation.
I do not know IC well enough to help.
Sorry.
No problem, thanks for your input anyway.

1)Try his new test version of bricked(beta4).
http://code.google.com/p/bricked/downloads/list
2)Charge to 100
3)Turn off, wait till green, unplug and plugin(bump charging)
4)Boot to recovery thru bootloader and wipe battery stats and then reboot unplugged
Drain you battery to 1, then charge up and repeat for a few days. And you can lower the clockspeed since you're using ondemand, you won't see a speed difference with 1.2 and higher. Oh and use ultra smooth rosie so the home will be faster...And see which apps are open in B/G.

With the exception of trying the beta bricked kernel, I've already done all that when I first got my anker battery. It's not a calibration issue, it's that something is actually draining the battery even when it should be asleep.
And that rosie change isn't needed, as I'm not even using sense in the first place. I've got no real issues with how the phone actually performs as everything is already perfectly smooth. The only slight issue I have is since flashing the amaze camera, on rare occasions it can lock up when exiting it, requiring a battery pull to get going again.

Oops missed the part about SPB, I have been having similar issues but with Faux's kernel after using Amaze cam, but I doubt that could cause sleep drain. I think you drain is caused by the phone not entering "Deep Sleep", some rogue app is keeping the phone partially awake and sucking up juice. I'm gonna go on a hunch and say the phone is running around 1.x GHz while screen if off due to the app.

Hopefully mine can help you. I also noticed HUGE battery drain issues in the past using Bricked Kernel, so I then reverted to stock. Battery was GREAT, but the stock kernel blows. So yeah, I went back to bricked and using the 3rd? beta right now. My battery started dropping like crazy again, so I thought it was the kernel. Before, I used bricked and it was fine so again, I couldn't really blame the kernel. What I tried after that is deleteing my OC app (I've used both SetCPU and System Tuner) and since then, battery is great again! You can try this and hopefully it'll help!
Tried that already as I too suspected the OC app a few days ago. Made no improvements to battery life, so I've put it back on today. Not tried a different kernel yet though, as I'd read that the bricked kernel was the best choice with InsertCoin? I used faux123's kernel first of all, but found it ran hot and kept crashing...
Down to 30% now by the way.

That's what I'm suspecting too, but I don't know how to go about finding it. I've looked with SystemPanel and BetterBatteryStats and haven't spotted anything, but that could just be because I'm not 100% on what to look for. And why would setCPU not be overriding it and making it clock down to 192mhz whenever the screen is off anyway? Isn't that it's job?
Then try the stock and see if it's still draining. When I tried stock and everything was great, I just simply assumed that it wasn't an app. It was the kernel!
I'm not convinced it's the kernel though, as if it was then battery life would have been crap ever since I flashed it. It hasn't been, it's only been bad for the past few days. Are there any links to the stock kernel just in case I can't find anything else?
- mine is 24 hrs
- heavy use 16 hrs
. Used some aninations only
. Turn off wifi when not in use
. Used only 20% brightness
. Used juice defender
. Downclock to 1.2 ghz intellideman
And ofc my kernel and rom that im using right now!
Thank me if I helped
I use bricked and i actually got better batter out of it but itsn still not up to par.. However fauxs ran faster but my phone was getting up to 47C... Way too hot.. I don't know why mines running so hot.. Using coredroid 2.6. 1.5 bricked kernel. wiped dalv and cache and battery stats... blah.. any input? i had setcpu and deleted it.
SetCPU is uninstalled again now to see if it was causing anything, and there's still a drain on the battery when it should be sleeping. Does anyone have any tips on how to find what's keeping it awake? It's been fully charged again, been unplugged for just one hour and it's down to 80% battery. Not even been using it apart from me flashing the InsertCoin Bravia addition onto it, making it 3.4.3.
One thing I have noticed though, is that BetterBatteryStats says the RILJ dialler has been running for 5m 33s since it was last charged, 775 times, 8.9%. This is on the partial wakelocks screen, whatever they are. Everything else listed is under 1%, with the only exception being the alarm at 1.6%. What does this mean?
I am running ARHD 6.5.5 with faux kernel at stock cpu freq. I also have the ICS AOSP aroma theme, with mostly AOSP apps.
You can see from my screen shots that my battery life is terrible, and that is with juice defender on too!
Can someone tell me if theres anything i can change to get better battery, or if there are any ics ROMs out there that will give better battery?
I have wiped battery stats off a full charge but that made no difference. One thing I thought it could be is that I may not have had full battery when flashing the ICS firmware update - but this would have been fixed by battery stats wipe right??
Thanks to anyone who took the time to read this!
Could be a few things....
First thing is to make sure you give it time to get a good battery profile. Let it charge all night, then clear the battery stats in the morning. Then let it go all the way down to 0 and shut off without interruption. (Meaning don't restart it if you can avoid it)
The first day will be pretty bad. The second day should be much better. The 3rd day should be really good.
If you've done that properly and you're still getting 10 hours of battery life, something's wrong.
You could have a wakelock, something that's keeping the phone running all the time even with the screen off. An app could cause this, but it doesn't look like the case based on your screen shot.
The battery could be bad. This can be tested with another ROM to see if the problem replicates itself.
The ROM install could have gone screwy somehow. (Though for the life of me I can't think of how.) But wiping clean and starting over might help.
You can also underclock the CPU. Make it run at like 350 mhz when idling. That'll help a lot.

Thanks a lot for the reply, you seem to know what your talking about... What about the firmware bit I mentioned, could that have anything to do with it?
I will re-try the battery calibration procedure you suggested - if it does not help what rom do you think I should flash to rule out a bad battery?

You didn't mention anything about firmware. But that should be a factor either.
Also, now that I think about it I think ARHD 6.5.5 might have had battery issues. I know one of the 6.5.x versions had poor battery life.
I run 6.5.3 myself and it's super ultra ridiculously battery efficient. I mean like 2 days between charges efficient. And I plug it in at the end of the 2nd day with like 20% left still.
Try starting over with 6.5.3. Or bump up to 6.6.2 that's out now.
I also never had luck with those juice defender things. But that's me. Some people swear by them. I found them to just be in the way.
I have the same issue with battery and I don't understand why the battery is so crap
I'm also using ARHD 6.5.5 with faux kernel. The first two three days were not spectacular but after that stabilized. I first ran it at the faux stock Cpu freq of 1.5 ghz and when I plugged for charging at night was usually at 40-55% depending on use. I'm running it now at 1.2 ghz (is a sensation 4g after all) and is usually 65-85% when I'm back home, depending on use.
I might add that I ran Rom Cleaner 3.5 to slim down the rom and also shnizlon AOSP them with the option of removing HTC apps and widgets

The problem was ARDH 6.5.5, updated to 6.6.2 and now got awesome battery life! Also re flashed the firmware off a full charge, that could have helped but I'm not sure cos I did it all at once.
Thanks guys

Hi,
I was running MIUIXperience V5 and everything was fine till got a random reboot last evening and after that, battery started draining very fast doing nothing 20-25% in an hour. Mobile is heating up a lot now back side near camera and charging also became very slow (30-40% in 4 hours). Tried full wipe and reinstalling the ROM but still the same issue, wiped battery stats as well.
I was getting 25-35 hrs before this so doesn't look like a fault in battery. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks.
Seems a hardware issue to me. Maybe try to swamp battery's and see if the current one you're using is busted.

Thanks for your help but I still doubt the battery as when charging in powered off, it charge well & quickly as before
Can you try another ROM? If it would work ok with another ROM that would put the hardware suspicion aside. If it still keeps the same with a different ROM, then it's most definitively a hardware issue.

I have tried another ROM and same ROM with clean install, they seem good as before the issue but as soon as I enable root permissions, battery started to drain fast again (35% in an hour)
got a similar issue with mine, usually my battery stills 20hrs, and that's ok for my usage, I'm running brainmaster cm9, but same with CDA 2.0.0, randomly the phone, in some case after a reboot or disconnecting power cable, start to drain battery and become hot, in battery usage stats AndroidOS is the main issue and android.process.acore the resource that never sleep,
I think this can came from a bad deep idle management on some rom-kernels combo or ics 4.0.4 issue, but I nobody to say this...

I tried different MIUI Roms but issue remained same. Then I installed Androxide after full wipe and now seems to be working fine (72% after 7hrs). Still can't figure out what is the issue that different variants of MIUI Roms after clean install and battery starts to discharge heavily.
Tried going back to MIUI but probelm came again and after restoring to Androxide, again working fine

I suggest to install an app like Quick System Info anche see id there is a process running high on CPU usage: there you can see its log and try to understand what's happening...
BTW, I started to have some massive drain with the last CM9 nightlies: it was the Phone app that sucked all the juice in a few hours.
I wiped & reflashed dozen of times, checking if the drain was caused by some app, until I used Quick System Info and saw from the logs that the problem was the new 2g/3g toggle widget: I had set it to "3g preferred" but this caused a loop. Setting it to "2g only"/"3g only" fixed the issue.
First, MIUI is a Chinese ROM.
Second, Chinese things are always known for bad quality.
So MIUI is bad
Really, dude? Maybe you should take the tin foil hat off.
Hi, so I recently got an Infuse from someone that is still on Froyo and I figure I might as well upgrade to a custom rom.
Since I care about battery life the most, I figure I would ask which version of Android provides the best battery life for the Samsung Infuse: Gingerbread or Ice Cream Sandwich.
I probably won't be running apps that fetch/push for data a whole lot, which obviously helps the battery life. But I thought I'd ask to get someone's opinion on this specific phone and a comparison between Gingerbread vs ICS before picking a rom.
And the winner is... Gingerbread!

Gingerbread is a better battery saver. Although i get decent battery on ics and jellybean. I know i perfer all that ics/jb has to offer in features over having battery life. But for what your asking id suggest AEON or the stock gb. Aeon is very stable and has some cool extras without much battery drain

I have never payed that much attention to battery life..

Sent from my sweet & buttery Infuse
the more recent ics and jelly bean kernels get great battery life due to fixed bt and wifi drivers (the wifi driver and binary were taken from another device from what i understand) and more stable cpu clock code than it had initially. not too much more than stock but i have to say it is better for me. but i guess it all depends on usage. one may have better standby vs awake battery life or something. the available kernels have been this way for atleast a month. when we start to see more kernels with undervolt it should get better yet.
I'm using CM10 8/23 and my battery life is good.
One of the best I even made a snapshot (can't upload right now): 51% left after 12 hours 46 minutes.
That's why I'm in a dilemma between jelly bean and gingerbread. I do appreciate JB a lot, way better functions. But still the battery life and compatibility are big issues. I can get 2 days under gb but only less than 12 hours in JB, that's a big issue.
I have been getting great battery life with the latest JB ROMs I have been using. Pretty much on par with the GB ROMs I used.

Can't say i've had good luck with battery life, I used to average 3 hours of screen on time in Gingerbread, but since moving to ics/jb that has dropped to anywhere from 30 mins (if i leave the phone and standby drain eats it) to 1 hour 45 mins on a single charge...not good.
No rogue apps, no media scanner (i constantly check these things with betterbatterystats, i don't install anything i didn't install on gingerbread). Just the cell phone standby drain eating my battery alive (BBS reports it as GTALK_ASYNC and RILJ wakelocks).
I've been researching it for months now and get various answers (the wakelocks are caused by bad APN settings for example), tried all the fixes, still no luck. I suspect that it's probably a Rogers thing but who knows.

I have done a factory reset, i formatted my sd card not too long ago (I also suspected this)
I also make sure google locations is disabled, never keep backup enabled (i did once by mistake and the auto restore nearly killed all my monthly data)
I am going to toggle wifi tonight and set a marker in BBS, i'll check the drain overnight (I did this a while ago and it did improve standby drain somewhat, but I am going to try it again)

I've been playing around a bit with different gb kernels, odex and deodex.
I found the drain issue much less on stock uclb3 kernel and rfs file system.
Almost all drain were associated with being on wifi...wakelocks and something else kills the battery.
If I have wifi off, there is usually not any issue.
You may have to play around a bit to see. My experience on cm9 and cm10 has been limited. I have noted several users noticing drain on cm9 and cm10 as well.
To avoid drain:
1. Use it to the max and constantly.
2. Leave the phone on airplane mode when not in use.
3. Turn off data (wifi and mobile data) and background data when not in use. I use this last mode.
Thanks for the tips man :good:
Airplane mode of course makes batt life better (disabling data doesn't), but when I start having to make sacrifices I didn't have to on GB it becomes a problem for me. Why should I jump through hoops and gimp my convenience for battery life that still isn't even as good as GB?
Instead of that i'd rather try to find the root cause of the problem. Doing so then allows us to help others that may have the same problem.
It definitely is an issue with the radio (or rather CM code overlooking something concerning the radio). What exactly, i'm not too sure. I've tried different modems as well, UCLB3 on JB was awful for battery life, UCKL2 and UXKG3 are slightly better but still not that great.
I don't want to complain about these things, I always try to research first, but damn....i'm stumped.

Yeah, I agree with you there. The techniques I use is pretty simple. Pose the hypothesis. Start with a full deck and slowly eliminate or start minimal and add.
ex: flash jb without gapps; without microSd. try different modem; try a different kernel. different kernel from different build.
have to use it for a few days to find out.
do the same for cm9.
add gapps...
add microsd
etc..
at some point, you will find out contributing factors.
There are a few battery thread that may be helpful if you havent looked:

I just flashed the ROM yesterday and everything's working fine except that I noticed that even if the screen's turned off, when I get a new notification (and even when I don't sometimes) the buttons' LED flashes and it stays like that unless I turn the screen on. Anyone else having this problem? I also noticed that the battery is draining pretty fast, can someone tell me their performance settings for lower battery consumption? Other than that, ROM's pretty stable, has a slight lag but oh well.
P.S I'm sorry if this has been asked somewhere else, I looked and couldn't find anything. If it has been, just tell me and I'll delete this.

I am on the 2nd last release as of now and havnt faced much battery drain issue..with 2G or wifi i get around 10-12 hrs of backup which I think is decent enough. For the LED issue also I dint face anything like dat..only for notification it'll glow. I think u shud do a clean flash and then see the difference. :fingers-crossed:
Hi, I use that one, too.
I suspect as well, that what you describe is not a bug, but a feature - for me, the LEDs glow when there's a notification. In terms of battery consupmtion, it's much better than stock GB ROM: I had more than 24h battery lifetime for the first time on this phone.
I recommend using the 14.3.29 version, though. some users have reported battery drain with 14.3.30

Really? I had a terrible experience with it. I loved the way it looked but battery drained extremely fast and after a few days I started getting the "android.process.acore has stopped" and then all of my apps force closed one by one. Now back to stock GB, battery lasts much longer although I miss the KitKat feel. Haha. I'm looking for a stable ROM for daily usage now, until then I'll stick with stock ROM.
