But wouldn't WiFi and Bluetooth show in the battery usage screen with a high percentage? They would show by themselves or under radio and those aren't high at all. It's all on the screen. That's the problem, it seems. And what I explained earlier is that I don't use it much. I will get a text message, I'll reply and automatically turn the screen off before I set the phone down. I never forget this. I'm actually anal about it. LOL

I just installed Better Battery Stats (thanks for the tip!!!) and will test with all 3 apps as soon as I unplug my phone to go to lunch. I haven't been able to do this yet. Crazy day here at work.

Thanks again.

that's covered under android system I believe. Most important, it causes wake locks that keeps your phone from deep sleeping.

Flash Instigators Kernel with Smartass/Badass scripts (not a joke....)

It will help you tremendously. You must reflash with every nightly update you do.

:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Razor1973:
OK, so 4.5 hours and battery discharged 38%. I guess that's not terrible, but my screen was only on for 26 minutes of that time and the phone is reporting 55% of the battery drain came from screen use. I feel battery life could be a lot better just because of this.

What else do these screenshots tell you guys?

I noticed KIK Messenger and MailDroid there. They both sync a lot. I do have a couple of IMAP accounts on MailDroid that I forgot to mention in my OP. But, still, I go back to the fact that most of the drain comes from the screen. These aren't related.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Razor1973:
Oh, true!!! I flashed InstigatorX's kernel when I first started flashing the nightlies, but, since I flash them every 2-3 days, I completely forgot to reflash the kernel. OK, it's more like I didn't know it was getting overwritten and I had to reflash it. Thanks for the reminder!!! By the way, do you go with stable (4.0b) or the latest experimental (5.3.2)? Also, do you just flash the kernel? What are those scripts and what do you do with them? I did not understand his instructions. Maybe I should be asking there, but since I already have you here... LOL
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
For one, turn your screen brightness down. I use auto-brightness and never have a problem seeing it, and my battery drain is ok that way.

Two, you've got the AudioOut_1 wakelock. Turn off system sounds in the settings menu (keytones, touch sound, screen lock sound, vibrate on screen tap) and that will take care of that.

Any type of instant messenger service (Skype is well-known for doing this) will wakelock your phone while it searches for IMs. No way around it other than an uninstall. You can't control IMAP pushing, but you can control folder polling, which eats up a lot of battery. I'd set your MailDroid accounts to not poll folders automatically more than once a day.

And definitely turn Bluetooth off when you're not actively connected to something. You might as well be using your phone as a flashlight with how much power BT burns through.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
I am currently on RC2. I went to the 21/22 nightly but was not liking how it was behaving so I went with the RC for now.

In INSTIGATORS forum you will see in the links to the kernel one that says <-------- works with RC2.

I used that one and I am happy. Sure you could do the newer ones but I am happy where I am at currently.

Just boot into recovery and install from zip.

(Assume u download the zip on your phone....)

Its easy as pie!

You can play with the settings if you want but the default settings work pretty freaking good!

I would for sure recommend going to that forum as Instigator himself can answer ALL your questions in depth.... I am merely a messenger and user of his kernel.... wish they would just merge it into the cm9....:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Razor1973:
Screen brightness: I use auto as well. It's in one of my first screenshots in this thread.

AudioOut_1 wakelock: Done. Thanks. I'm going to miss the touch and screen lock sounds. LOL I left dial pad touch tones and volume rocker music controls in that same secton checked, by the way.

MailDroid: I went through all the settings, both general and for the e-mail accounts and couldn't find a place to specify folder polling interval. Do you have it installed? If so, could you tell me exactly where to find this please?

Bluetooth: I'll try my best to turn it on only when I needed. I could also follow dakpluto's suggestion with the NFC tags. But then, I'd have to leave NFC on. Doesn't that drain battery too?

And you see, although all of these will help, don't you agree based on my screenshots that the biggest offender here is the screen and this is the area I should really be looking at?

Here's what I just did:

1) Installed latest (7/23) CM9 nightly.

2) Installed InstigatorX's 5.3.2 experimental kernel using CWM.

3) Installed InstigatorX's BadAss script using CWM on top of the kernel (I guess that's how you do it).

I will see how my battery behaves. It'll be difficult to know which of the many things I did is the one that yielded the biggest improvement, however. Oh well.

Thank you all!

From the looks of that screen shot. The phone is barely being used, see how the blue isn't solid for most of the running time?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] UZ7:
Yep I have power saving stuff such as turn off wifi when idle, I dont have GPS on 24/7 and I dont have wakelocks, I also set mine to use 3G/4G rather than LTE. If it was a solid blue that means something will be constantly on draining the battery.

Those are the two lines from the front and the end. The blanks are deep sleep over night. Remember I said "testing aokp" "stock kernel"

If you want my "light" use then here it is lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] UZ7:
For performance I prefer smartassv2 for power saving I would go for badass governor. With badass it doesn't jump clocks to max but goes by phases thus not aggressive and doesn't eat a lot. Test them out :) read the change log to see if changes pertain to you :good:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] droid512:
This is from today

Rc2 instagators latest. Max 1.2 min 192 Badass gov, WITH THE SCRIPT

few things to remember: it's good practice to reboot your phone after you unplug it to avoid wake locks

Widgets kill battery

Auto task killing apps are counter productive

Lux brightness is fantastic

And i do like juice defender even though people also say that its counter productive

anything else other users want to add?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] carrett:
Just switched to Instigator kernel on CM9 nightlies and was so pleased with the results thought I'd share. No juice savers, normal sync settings, all wifi, medium use. I close every app when I'm done, not sure how much that helps I'm just OCD.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] onealvideo:
I am a big believer in Instigators Kernel with Badass as my personal choice of CPU Governor.

Glad when others find it and start using it.... with CM9 or AOKP....

:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Hav0x:
With Instigator + badass I notice a difference glad I got it.

8:50 its 192mhz 96% the rest 0% on cpu spy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
This is about as good as it gets for me: 19 hours from full charge to critically low battery shutdown, 2 hours of screen time, 26 minutes of voice calls.

Setup: CM9 RC2, UCLF6 baseband, stock kernel (conservative, 192-1242 MHz), automatic brightness with custom level (see pic.)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hd2k10:
I am in the exact same situation, I get the same battery life. I can only get 2 hours screen-on MAX out of my stock battery before my phone is dead.

Edit: And this is with any Android Build/Rom I've tried.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lnfound:
Have you tried other modems? It could be one more approach to get some more battery. Poor signal as indicated by the yellow will hurt battery life. I'm on UCLF6 and every other modem gave me signal similar to yours. With UCLF6 my green and yellow have inverted. Try all the available modems and see which gives best results. I wouldn't strictly use a download test but rather flash one of the like 6 modems we have each morning, save a screen shot, and compare them at the end.

Even a download test will vary hour to hour from the same spot so it is not as good of an indicator for average signal. Also I'm sure there's an app to calculate average signal dB over time, that would be ideal.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] scojosmac:
I wish I could go a full day on one charge :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dakpluto:
Partly because his screen shot is a little deceptive also. Yes, he got about 50% in 18 hours, but if you look, he only really had two times he used the phone. Both of which wearing down the phone. Remember that when people talk about how much time they get on battery life, you have to compare the usage to what you do. I can wow people with my 5 days on a single charge when I was on my vacation, but since it was a cruise I had all radios off and only ever used it to snap pictures. It's not a realistic example saying that Superlite 3.1 should give you 5 days.

If you use your phone a lot, you are going to wear down battery, plain and simple. Best we can really do is work to lower how much our usage uses (underclocking/undervolting/screen brightness/etc) and preventing as many wakelocks as possible so the time we are not using it drains nearly nothing.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Razor1973:
Very informative. Yes, I use CM9 nightlies with InstigatorX's kernel and the BadAss governor. Can't stand non AOSP/AOKP ROM's. The more themed, the worse.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] UZ7:
Haha true, I actually was using CM9/InstigatorX for a long time since the very first time it went nightlies and it was pretty solid for me. I wanted to test out AOKP for all the extra features and played with stock kernel for a while and it was actually decent (hence the pic :P ) but it didnt feel the same without the kernel so I popped in the latest from instigator and defaulted to badass and I can go a full day without worrying :good:

anwya...since you want to run custom ROMs, you need to unlock the bootloader using ASUS's app from thier site.

unlock the bootloader

flash the ROm of your choice.

if the unlocker app from ASUS doesn't work, then you may have some more work ahead of you.

run the unlocker app and report back here with the results.

[Defy General] G00fY2:
Hello everyone,

now we have a really stable CM9 release and also nearly fully working CM10 builds, I'm wondering whats left to get official CM10 support. Epsylon postet that he an Quarx want to achieve this:

"So we are making a common repo for Defy and Defy+ also, and only this version will have official support..." (or isn't he talking about official CM support?)

CM team posted this diagramm a few month ago. It shows how high the chances are to get official CM9. Well, CM9 seems dead now, but we're still at the marked point I guess:

Now I have two questions: Do you think that even for CM10 a device with same chipset and manufacturer JB is required? Also whats the sense behind this requirement? If we meet Googles ICS/JB APIs and everything is working fine on our device, why do we need other OMAP3 devices with manufacturer ICS/JB?

Maybe we can discuss chances of getting official CM10 in this thread. For me Epsylon seems optimistic, even though he postet this last week:

Cheers!
[Defy General] ppero196:
They need drivers from the same chipset!
[Defy General] kanpurite:
Right now are hopes rest on L.G.

They are scheduled to release ICS for Optimus Black in Q3 2012.

It has the same chipset,GPU.
[Defy General] G00fY2:
But drivers normaly are a part of the kernel. So manufactured ICS for LG P970 wouldn't bring advantages from my point. In addition we allready have latest GPU driver and all other parts are also working with ICS/JB (Camera, radio, wlan...).
[Defy General] kanpurite:
You actually are making sense . :)

Maybe the only thing we'll need from it would be the omx decoders .(720)

[Defy General] Llamatron:
Didn't we loose it at the "dedicated GPU" anyway? I thought it was our CPU who was also the GPU. Why would Motorola put a dedicated GPU if they never put an android version using HWA on it?

Anyway no biggie, developers versions released after the official 7.1 & 7.2 have always been better than official releases.
