I just got a new extended battery and want to test it .
Is there any way to benchmark the battery? Any script or something?

You can see the battery stats in the Battery section of Settings and compare the newer and older battery. But if you want an app you can try Better Battery Stats or Battery Stats Plus on Play store.

Battery stats

This guy seems to think that wiping battery stats does nothing for battery life. Is this correct? Have we all been fooled?

False battery readings

I use battery calibration app from the market to wipe my battery stats after I fully charge my phone but when I change batteries it never shows full charge even though it is. Any suggestions?
I'm using PB 1.6 with T15 kernel

Wiping battery stats does nothing useful. More then likely the problem is from using generic batteries. I know when I switch to my Hyperion batteries. Try plugging in your phone or toggling airplane mode on and off.

Battery stats works for me when I switch roms... You don't want to wipe battery stats every time!
I don't know about you, but do you really need that extra 1~2% battery for a full 100%???
I have eb with faux kernel and usually I get it to 99 and in some cases 100%. Even at 100% I'm at 4175 mv or so when it should be at 4200mv.
Point is, your not going to miss that extra ~25mv out so of juice.
Check your voltage and let us know.

No what I'm saying is if I change my battery at 6% when I power back up it still says 6% at 4100 or so.

I only wipe battery stats after flashing a new rom.

WIPING BATTERY STATS DOES NOTHING USEFUL. The only thing it does is clears the settings app that tells you what's using battery. Why do people never listen...

Does that on every reboot doesn't it? No need to get hostile

I'm not getting hostile I'm simply stating it does nothing useful. This has been confirmed by Google engineers as well. So wiping the battery stats will not change battery reading.

Cm9 battery life issue

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

Battery calibration.

I've already tried that. I'm still having the same issues.

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...

Use better battery stats to see what is killing your battery

It says audio out 1

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 advice you try Gremlin Remover Step 1 and 2 (FIRST!) then if problem persists more on to step 3
EDIT : Gremlin Remover can be found on the development area or here you go: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500427

The battery might be dying. You should try another one because I noticed my stock battery started to stop lasting as long as it used to

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.

Facebook battery drain.

I e just started using Facebook and my battery life has halved, is this normal? Or is it the official Facebook app? Does anyone know of a better app or how to stop Facebook draining my battery?

Turn off notifications.
Try using better battery stats, probably some apps causing wake locks.
I've got it running now thanks

Maybe just use the browser for Facebook, sure it has less features, but your battery life may improve, just a thought

Is there any method to increase battery life.. Or can I use any other 300 mah battery

No genuine battery available for magnus. TO improve battery life root your phone and use apps like greenify .
