I don't know if it is a problem with my battery, or my phone, or even the ROM but whenever my phone is discharging it discharges by 2%. I just changed the battery to an Anker 1900mAh battery (brand new from Amazon). I've been using AlbinoMan887's ROM and I have done everything from discharging the battery and recharging it, wiping it full and even reseating the battery. Does anyone else have this problem? What can I do?

This is almost normal usage. This shouldn't be normal on a brand new battery! (Sorry that one of the screenshots was in Spanish. Let my parents borrow my phone.)

Try wiping battery stats but look at google for more info or let it charge till green led light is on and let it load for few hours extra like 2 hours

Well that hasn't seemed to work. The longest I can go with normal usage is 5-6 hours.

Is this specific to this Rom? Also try your stock battery again

I'm going to try out some other ROMs, good looking out. My stock battery is shot. It does the exact same thing. That's why I thought I needed a new battery.

It may be something you may have done.
Did you by chance flash some tweaks on top of zeus?
is this 5 days battery life like even with data and wifi on and if so is it with the ics theme added or no and if yes what are you guys doing and what battery are you using to achiueve this insane battery
In my experience the only way to get that kind of battery life is to basically not use it much. Which defeats the purpose of carrying it around. I use the internet quite heavily, text occasionally, gps, bluetooth and wifi typically stay off and with that usage I might be able to squeeze out a day and a half. Just my experience.

Zeus R3V and Aeon all have good battery life. I used the hell of it last night and this morning and I still have 67%.
Update: made it 1d 1h 13m 15s and still have 20%

I as well am having problems with my battery draining quickly

I agree Zeus has excellent battery life, 2-3 days all the time. I will say that I had to reflash Zeus once because I couldn't seem to get more than 6 hours out of the battery, I just chalked it up to a bad flash.
I'm having bad battery life too...I get good battery on the first day after a reboot or something but after that its back to 10 hours

Hey guys,
Was wondering if you could share some screen-on time screenshots of your One X on CM10. I have one coming in the mail and am getting a little anxious regarding the battery life.
Would prefer screenshots of normal use please!
Thanks in advance

With the stock ROM I was only getting 8-10 hours of battery life.
I switched to CM 10 and ever since my battery life has gotten MUCH better. On average now I can get 16+ hours out of my phone.

Thanks for the reply guys, could you click on the screen (in that screenshot you posted) to show me the screen-on times?
all these screen shots are useless. I can get 3 days idling.
This was my best screen on time over last weekend.

No, I have only been running CM10 for less than a week.
The big difference for that day was that I wasn't using Play Music to stream for an hour or more a day, and I have cut out almost all background syncs - only fb and K9 mail with one Gmail account.
Normally I get a little over 2:00 screen on time. That was just a good day.

I flashed the 3.2.5 full rom on HOX and I find the Wifi to be the biggest battery drain. Battery is at 85% after 7 hours of use. My Wifi stays on always. Its usage is 30%. Never had this trouble on stock ROM.
With regards to ViperXL, everything is stock. I didn't flash a new kernel or wifi/radio. Just flashed the ROM. Experience users before have said to give it a couple of days for the cache and dalvik cache to build up when flashing a new ROM. Does Wifi fall under this as well?
Should I be doing something else?
15% drain sounds pretty good for 7 hours. Also the WiFi use is 30% of 15%

But I didn't use the phone fore anything - apart from turning the screen on a bunch of times, turned on navigation to see if it craps out on (which it did) and used whatsapp. Maybe I should give it a couple of days before I start asking questions about the wifi.
Also, should the new G Maps update fix the problem of Maps on 4.1.1?
Yeah that's nothing to be worried. I used to get about 8-9 hours with at the most 30 minutes of on screen time with stock viperxl and cm10 when it dipped down to 15%. A lot of people are getting worse times than mine. The thing that really saved my battery life was flashing a new radio. Singtel 3.17 to be exact with CleanRom 5.1.

It sounds like you're getting good battery life with this ROM. I've found this ROM to be much more efficient than the stock ROM, even with Wi-Fi on.
Here's what my battery stats look like after a full day.

3.19 radio was killing me. 2.20 was much much better. ATT
I was getting for work this morning and my battery started at like 93%, and when I got to work, I noticed it was at 21%. What could have happened? I'm using my OEM battery and charger. I didn't do anything differently with it today than normal.

Seems like one of the app is trying to use wifi with GPS or possible it failed to switch to 4g. I would manually disable wifi and GPS, then recharge the phone and see if the issue went away. If it is then the next step is to identify the root cause.
I noticed that your battery levels off. Does it actually die within say 4 hours, or can you go the whole day? I had an issue where mine would level off round 20% and I could go on for a few hours longer.... ended up reflashing my ROM, clearing caches to fix it.

It had Wifi on always, and GPS some of the time.
Doesn't matter much now though; I got a new phone. That was the only time it happened though. Very odd.

Does factory resetting a few times affect battery?
Does software reinstalls affect battery?
If you update your S6 with OTA and the update is large( from 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 for example) battery drain quicker.
I installed android 6.0 OTA on my S6 and battery give me 3.15 SOT with a good wipe 4.30 SOT.
So yes
