Hey,
Just wanted to get some feedback on these wakelocks and battery life overall.
Related
does anyone know of an app or widget to say how much *time*, not percentage, is left on the battery?
If you are on Android, try Battery Doctor.
It gives all vivid details pertaining to your batter state.
Do any of these really work?
I would LOVE to have an app to increase the battery life on my TBolt, but from what I hear, none of them really work without turning off a lot of the features of the phone. You might as well turn the phone off to save battery.
I'm using one of the kernels from Adrenalyn which is helping tremendously, but wouldn't mind even b etter battery life
Has anyone had any success with exchanging their Nexus 5 and getting better battery life? With fairly light use, I barely get 2 1/2 hours of battery life. Now, I know MANY factors contribute to battery performance. However, I just want to know if anyone has been able to exchange their device because of poor battery life and has noticed improvement with another device. I see people with outrageous SOT's and just wish I could get to the 3 1/2 point mark.
I ask the following respectfully - do not give advice on how to use better battery stats, wakelock detector, Gsam etc. I do not mean to be snarky, but I have tried them all and have gotten nowhere. Thanks for your time.
Hello everyone.
I've been using for quite some time the Vanir-Exodus ROM, I'm really satisfied, the best performance, camera quality and stability so far, but one thing that's been a weak link is the battery life.
On CM 11S, using the same apps and routines, I got around 5-6 hours of SoT, battery gets to 15% by the time I go to bed, around 11pm, lasting for about 12-14 hours. On Exodus, it's really not the same case, the best SoT is about 3 hours, screenshot attached.
Could you help me troubleshoot this? I really don't understand the mobile radio drain from the apps, it's what I suspect is chugging the life out of this poor battery.

I'm using vanir exodus too and I have really good battery life (5hours sot and 31 hours deep sleep yesterday) install wakelock detector or better battery stats to check your wakelocks and if your device is in deepsleep mode
Hm, ok, installed it, these are the statistics.
Screen:
CPU:
Wake up triggers:
So, it would seem that the next step would be denying the wake up and keep awake features of Facebook, Viber, Messenger, Google+, Google Play Music and WhatsApp. Is that how this is supposed to work?
Hm, today's statistics with heavy usage. Not really impressed at all, seems that mobile radio plays a huge part in the drain. Any suggestions?
So, to post a solution.

I've used Better Battery Stats + Wakelock Detector to discover what was causing wakelocks. The problem was AudioMix wakelock here caused by touch sounds and lock screen sounds, as well as Messenger sounds. I also disabled audioFX, just in case. Now getting 5.5 hours of SoT! [emoji2]
I've been running into this problem recently where my phone has been getting absolutely horrible battery life, despite using custom battery saving synapse profiles, greenify AND amplify. I've attached screenshots and my BBS dumpfile. I really have no clue what's going on, and it doesn't help that Google doesn't interpret asterisks. Does anyone know what *alarm* is and why it's being used by all these apps? And why my cell standby is so horrible despite my relatively good signal strength? I'm really very lost.
Hi Folks,
I have had my device for a few days now and although I haven't used it as my main daily driver yet, I have noticed the battery life in standby mode is terrible. I cannot believe how poor the performance is. I looked at the battery usage chart and it was basically a 45' angle line downwards. In other words it will last just about a day on standby. Does anyone have any tips on how to get the battery life to improve so that at least I can get 3-4 days in standby mode? I'd prefer to stick with stock MIUI 6 but, am willing to root and install custom ROM if 1) everything works and 2) the battery life does improve significantly.
Thanks
PS: Does the XPOSED toolkit offer any fixes in general for battery performances?
with mokee rom (and also other roms, like xenonHD & Omni rom) the battery is excellent, no drain at all overnight
but if you want to stay with MIUI, try finding out which wakelock drains your battery (use BetterBatteryStats or another wakelock detector) because it seems there is a wakelock which prevents deep sleep.
Try to disable "Keep wifi on during sleep" (Setting->wifi->advanced setting->Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep). I changed it to "Only when plugged in". And also I turned on "Wifi optimization" not sure what it doing, but these 2 changes really helped me.
