I'm impressed with battery life on CM - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General

So ive used a debloated touchwiz rom and CM10.2, I noticed minimal battery difference in life. Usually averaging around 3 1/2 hours worth of screen life... Recently I installed ktoonz kernel and managed to clock the CPU to 189-378mhz, I must say this kernel is awesome managing battery life. Just look for yourself

There are plenty of "Off Topic" threads of which this belongs. Or even post it in the CM10.2 thread.
But... cool. I had over 24 hours on my battery yesterday using stock MF3 TW. It was at 45% with 2.5 hours screen on time.

Not even impressive at all.

I can only post in general or Q&A...
My battery lasted longer than 24 hours, and screen time was like 4 1/2 hours. I will fully charge and try to take a ss..

Took me one second to find but they're there.
Obviously your battery lasted longer than 24 hours if you're at 20 hours with 46%. No SS needed since there's no disbelief.

Juice Defender Ultimate settings

I have aways believed these Apps to be gimmicky but I have noticed a lot of people using JDU so I bought into the hype and way to know why the best setting or what setting you have set. Other than XDA I only browse FB twice a day and listen the MOG about and hour a day. My battery lasts all day with average use but I get a very poor sleep state. Burn 20-30% over 6 idle hours with screen off. I want JDU to help out with that. Thanks for the input
And if JDU is a joke let me know so I don't waste my time. Thanks.

No, it is not a joke. I think that on the balanced setting it adds maybe a couple of hours to the battery. In that setting, it switches off certain background processes and radios until you start using the phone again. Thus, JDU only helps when you are not using the phone. If you do heavy use, its utility is minor. I set it at "balanced". At "aggressive" it really kills a lot of the background tasks.

[Q] how is my battery usage?

hey guys, first post here, got my g/f skyrocket as a christmas gift. been iphone owners for past couple of years. love the phone and and system but as usual battery drain is an issue. i installed nexusmod and stockish kernel and the batt improved but still it wasnt near where other guys were reporting. so i flashed with skyrocket kernel and also i flashed it with a script that limited the cpus to around 1gh.
i would post screen shots but im not allowed since its my first post.
well after a full day, i got
- 10h of total use
- 2hr of display time on
- 30m calls
wifi off
screen brightness - 10-30%
gps off
sync off
4 emails acc checking every 30mins
so how does this sound with the rom, kernel and script setup? no wakelocks or anything.
i thought i would get much better results with cpus underclocked.
thats in advance
I find it's really the display that destroys battery life. I hardly used my phone for one day and got 20hous and still had a few hours left but then today I unplugged at 7 am and by 8 pm I was down at 25% because I used it for about 2 hours on the train.

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.

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

Screen-on time with CM10

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.

[Q] Battery discharging by 2%

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?
