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.
Look now? I was streaming a movie on Firefox but man all that battery gone so fast? There must be something else.

Make sure NFC is off and use greenify are a couple that come to mind.

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

Do you have the eb 40 aka MAXX version or the regular battery? Because all screenshots of long lasting battery is with the MAXX battery.

I have a RAZR HD XT925, not an Maxx, but I've seen some screenshots of this phone lasting almost 10hours and still with 10% I know it also depends on the use, but I wasn't using it that much when I took this screenshots.

Ok so what's your screen-on time? That is one of the greatest indicators of good or bad battery life.
I guess you're referring to this:
3h 12m 17s

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.

Today I was out using my nav app and things seemed really laggy. Without thinking about it I held power button in until phone powered down, at the time I had about 60% and when phone came back on I had 11%? I powered down by way of the reboot menu 4 more time and every time I would get a little bit more until it just stopped at 39%. Has anyone else had this problem?
P.S phone seems to be ok after full charge.

Battery calibration app does nothing to our phones. Ask entropy he's explained it before. Also I have had that as well, but it will come back slowly, but should still be charged again

well I let it get down to about 5% then gave it a full charge, and its working great now. funny how a battery pull and many restarts would not fix the problem.

Sent from my Sensation Z710e using xda premium
Tasker may be able to do this, however I haven't used Tasker yet, so I can't be certain.
I recommend just looking for an app which will activate power saving settings or alert you when the battery reaches a certain level.
Have a look at Juice Defender.

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...

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.

what are you waiting for the battery to leak ? or to blast ?
you can easily get a cheap duplicate battery in the market ,if you dont want to invest on the OG one
why risk it out with this defective one

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.
