Hi Everyone,

I am disappointed with the battery of Optimus One.

My Battery in Standby (GPS/Wi-fi/3g/Sync/Screen, ALL OFF and without USE ), does not last even 20 hours.

I have an application that shows what application is consuming more battery power and the "phone in standby mode" takes up 95%!

What are your experiences with this battery?

Mine has problems?

Thx
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Dark_1:
I bought it one week ago and the battery last one day with no problem (and it's not at its full "potential" since is new). When did you buy the phone?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Rynborg:
I bought it 2 weeks ago
[Optimus One, P500, V General] onlymeipse:
Using a custom rom you won't be disappointed with your battery no more...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Explore3:
I have openOptimus Rom with Franco kernel 15. I am at 85% battery after 14 hours. The phone has been pretty much idle.

Only 2G networks

Data disabled

Wi-fi on

Auto-sync on

Overclocked 480/729 interactive (interactive may not be optimal)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Rynborg:
I'm using franco kernel v15.1 with devoid.franco, i'll try do update do devoid.froyo.final today.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Rynborg:
Hi, what is data disabled? and how to put only 2g networks?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ligu:
20 hours on idling? Send it back for repair/replace. Mine will last days if left idling (about 1% every two hours)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] yanuk:
When I travel I turn all data connections off (Bluetooth, wifi, gps, data) and it lasts about 3days
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Explore3:
Here are some potential things to turn off that might make the battery last longer. They are all in the settings app. I do not do all these since I find that some things might make the battery last longer but reduce the usefulness of the phone.

Setting/Display/Brightness

Setting/wireless & networks/wi-fi off

Setting/wireless & networks/bluetooth off*

Setting/wireless & networks/mobile networks/use only 2G networks*

Setting/wireless & networks/mobile networks/data enabled off* (I have this turned off all the time as I do not have a data plan.)

The items * I have off unless I am actively using them. I also overclock my Optimus. I think that this probably gives me a longer battery life, since it is running at 480 when I am not using it. I suppose if I was desperate, I would undercloack the phone (min 480 and max 480).

What version of Android are you running? 2.2 or 2.2.1/2.2.2?

When you click on Cell Standby, how much Time Without Signal does it show?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] harshdoshi25:
follow these steps and i think ull have what you want..

go to battery use and click on cell standby : then see time without signal. how much does it show ? if its above even one percent (unless uve mannually put ur device in airplane mode) i know the problem. :D :D:D

go to settings >wireless & network settings > mobile network > mark 2G only (if u are not using 3G) cause the cell might spen loads of battery searching for 3G.. then go to network operators and search for (mannually) and select ur own network provider.. like mine is airtel.. then let your battery run down totally.. completly to zero. then recharge your phone to full without any break.. this is called recaliberation. then see how much your battery lasts..

remember to turn off bletooth, wifi, internet, all ! while the phone is idle and you wont be using it for sometime. or, if you wont be doing or getting any calls or sms, consider switching to airplane mode..

you might be getting less battery if ur in a area with weak signal strength.. this makes the phone go wilder to search for signal. in these conditions, switch to airplane mode if you can . thatll save a lot of battery. and also during night if you want to. ;) :D :cool: ;)

dont hesitate to click the thanx if i helped ! ;)

EDIT: and ya every thing that the person after me 'Y.u.v.i' said.. though those are normal things and brightness level is most important..

and about francos kernel, ive had many f/c s with mik's cm7 beta 6.2.5 ..i prefer its own kernel , though dunno for other roms.. ;) u might wanna try it.. ill try myself too.. :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Y.u.v.i:
yes ..few step here u can try

1.reduce ur brightness level to minimum ...

2. use 2g signal only.

3. turn off all extra connection like wi-fi , Bluetooth, auto sync , data.

4. use advance task killer and set it to auto kill app aftr every 30 mints.

5.automatic screen time to 30 sec.

6.if u r using custom ROM use Franco 15.1 kernal . and wipe battery after charging it up-to 100%

:D

use thanks if u like my post ...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Rynborg:
I did all the tips posted here. Let us now see what happens
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Rynborg:
I'm using 2.2

7% without signal.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sholimar:
Sorry for the dumb question (about 2.2 or 2.2.x) - I didn't read the first page carefully enough. :D

Try this: reboot, then enable airplane mode, lock your screen and leave it like that for about a minute, unlock screen, disable airplane mode.

Are you still seeing Time Without Signal? (of course, after a few hours, not straight away)

EDIT:

DON'T do any of the following:

- reduce brightness to 1%... come on, be serious! you really like squinting at the screen? screen brightness doesn't affect battery life that much anyway...

- don't use task killers! it doesn't matter if you have little RAM - it's there to be used. I will not go into details about this (there's whole threads about it), but trust me!

You could also try monitoring your apps with https://market.android.com/details?id=com.zomut.watchdoglite&feature=search_result and see if any of them start behaving wildly and keep your CPU awake.

Another thing would be to try Nessy Hypnos2... I had great battery life when using that ROM! :) If you're still experiencing the same battery drain with a fresh install of Hypnos, then I'm sorry to tell you but you'll probably have to send your phone for repairs. :(
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Rynborg:
I ended up recharging the phone two hours ago and it is at 91%.

Was 9% in 2 Hours - 4,5% per Hour. Very Bad...

...with nothing in use.

Only 2g networks

wi-fi/dates/sync/bluetooth ( ALL OFF )

Screen OFF (black, with -0% of brigth, because he is OFF)

I install Battery Monitor Widget that estimates my uses of battery in:

18h52m of Discharge (100->0%)

and 5h of charg in USB and 3h of charge inc AC.

I'm installing watchdog now, to see if have an App draining battery.

EDIT:

But I do not think that's because I have an application that shows the the CPU clock in%.

480MHz = 80%

729Mh = 20% or less

and another that shows the applications that consume battery

and Cell Standby = 90%
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Rynborg:
I tried and went back to get a signal instantly after turning off the airplane mode.

I'm not using task killers.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Rynborg:
A question a little idiot.

What is the battery in your P500?

Mine is a :

LG Li-ion Battery 3.7V

LGIP-400N 1500mAh 5.6Wh

Made in China
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Vip_blast:
I got the same. My phone is also on the same settings, same rom, same kernel. Battery life was awesome some days ago, but now I experience average battery drain, I think I need to callibrate my phone as well. :/ I will do it probably after flashing void.final.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Ruwin:
Ok dudes, IF YOU WANT HUGE BATTERY LIFE, GO GET A ****ING NOKIA 1208!!!

So... a smartphone is made to be used as a SMARTPHONE, meaning 3g, wifi, gps if needed, sync, etc. If your phone uses all this and it keeps going more than one full day, than be happy, you have a normal, decend smartphone.

BUT if you really have problems, you should know, 3g, wifi and sync don't eat up that much battery. Run a diagnose via adb or jtag and see for yourself. CPU is eating battery along cell network. This means TAKE CARE WHAT STUPID APPS YOU INSTALL! Run a task manager and see what processes are running, uninstall apps that eat your CPU constantly and replace them with better ones, or learn to live without if you want battery life.

I use franco's devoid and his kernel, no apps 2 sd or that kind of stuff. 3g and auto sync are always on, play a lot of games, browse the web, and still get 2 days out of my phone...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Y.u.v.i:
LOl Brightness always does matter bro either its notebook case or cellphone display lcd or tft more brightness more battery drain ...and task killer always help in safe mode somehow some times useless apps keep working in back stage ..... bt these things will not help u out for more ..if ur battery drain problem is very high jst use another custom ROM by mic +franco kernel and aftr tht charge ur battery to 100% and wipe battery stat ...if prob is still thr better to service center and remember b4 taking it to service center flash it back to original official froyo os Lol other wise thy will tke it as a warranty void case :eek:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Y.u.v.i:
lol =)) yes he is right you are using a smartphone man and optimus o1 is the only android phone which is providing 1500MAH battery in this kinda budget or u can say in this range ...so if its giving 1 day backup at your daily work conditions thn its Normal ....
[Optimus One, P500, V General] 3ig:
Or people can just use it only as a phone and don't enable anything (3G, WiFI, GPS, Sync) or play games and see how long it will last. I have a Samsung Galaxy i7500 as a second phone and it lasts for 5 days but using it in 2g mode and only as a phone.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] :
Eh...

1/ Setting brightness to 1% does not help, it makes the phone unusable.

2/ Task killers are just harmful. Not to mention they do NOT fix anything; killing a broken app that keeps draining your battery when it is not being used is no solution, you need to find a better one that does not do this in the first place.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Rynborg:
How to calibrate? You're talking about Wipe Batetery Stats?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Rynborg:
I probably found my problem.

For that, I did a test, I left the device in airplane mode for 3 hours,

and guess what happened? I have not lost 1% battery at this time

So it is probably something with my service provider signal.

EDIT:

Ok, i found the problem, but i don't have solution?

Someone have?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Rynborg:
I installed the APN ON/OFF and got more battery life, but i'm searching more tips.

After flashing cyanogenmod with lordmodUEv2.5-VIO kernel, when I enter the camera app, "cannot connect to camera" error appears...

Is this problem related to the rom? kernel? radio? Any idea how to solve it?

Thanks in advance
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flussen:
Hmm isn't 7.0.3 outdated? Its possible that there are some probs between the kernel and the rom.

Try to upgrade to a newer version of CM, this should fix your problen imo.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hadi Yazdi:
7.0.3 is the last stable version of cyanogenmod!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] srikanth.naidu:
Try flashing another kernel or check in Lordmod's thread for the kernel

kejar31 - great looking ROM, d/l it right now. So which method is best for "root" if we are on ED2? I have been running Voodoo Kernel by jt1134 to get root/voodoo lagfix/cwm.

Nevermind I will flashed the Root Stock ED1 Downgrade from ED2 and went that route. I will reflash the Voodoo Kernel Lagfix after the ROM is settled in.

So after installing this ROM everything works great no force closes, excellent battery, and lightning fast. Only problem is I can't download a single app from the market I always get download unsuccessful. No matter how I try to download it either 3G, 4G, or Wifi it still doesn't work. Any ideas? I tried clearing out the data and cache from every Google program even though I did a full wipe prior to install but figured it couldn't hurt. This still didn't help me.

[Verizon Droid Charge] stang68x:
But are you on EE4? Any of the new updates improvements, like Hotspot back, more bars, etc?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Botond:
Hotspot is back. App.core keeps crashing, once specifically when I was joining contacts.

Installing anything from the Marketplace does not work.
[Verizon Droid Charge] eljoker402:
I went from ed2 to ee4 via this rom.

I was on gummycharge. 1.0 and jumped to. 1.5 and no problems.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kejar31:
Ok I am back from going out with my friends for the night, a little tipsy but I am here.

If you are having issues with the market or getting FC's with acore you need to wipe data and re-install.

your apps should auto restore from the market afterwords, mine did and I have flashed like 10 times today alone...

I will be updating the Op soon.. I recommend a wipe with this install simply becouse you are moving to a new base (IE from ED2 to EE4)
[Verizon Droid Charge] Outsider2011:
So just to be sure..i have to odin to ED1..INSTALL ED2 THEN LET EE4 DO ITS THING THEN FLASH THIS ROM? WOULDNT THAT LOSE CWM? I NEEDA KNOW THE STEPS TO TAKE I WANNA DO THIS NOW..LOL
[Verizon Droid Charge] kejar31:
Here is the quick and dirty instructions

1. Install ED1 Root Odin found here on XDA (make sure you deactivate voodoo if you have it activated)

2. Boot and let it OTA you to ED2 (stock)

3. download the EE4 update found on this site and put it on the root of your SD card.. Rename that file to update.zip

4. boot into stock recovery and select install update.zip.

5. let it do its thing

6. after booting and verifying that everything is working on EE4, install CWR from this thread via Odin

7. Install a root Kernel via Odin or CWR for either voodoo or non voodoo depending on whether you want or know how to activate it.

8. install Wipe data

9. Install GummyCharged
[Verizon Droid Charge] STX21:
Hey there. I just got my Droid Charge today, coming from a OG Droid and could use some help.

I started by rooting using ODIN and flashed this file, and when I rebooted I got an notification about updating to EE4. Should I go ahead and flash the OTA update, or is there a version on this site I should be downloading?

I'm assuming I'm at step 4 of your instructions, but could be completely wrong as I am new to this phone. If you wouldn't mind helping a noob out, it would be greatly appreciated :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] Botond:
Nice. I was having Marketplace and app.core issues but I seem to have fixed it. I flashed EE4 Debloated V4.2.1 with CWM Red and installed Gummy 1.5 on top of that. Now works flawless.

Great Job
