Can anyone post any battery stats from Omar's M5 release? I'm looking to make a jump to his rom again, and I just wanted to see how well the battery life was. Many thanks!
[RAZR i General] iharcha:
These are the stats of M7.

They are a bit dodgy because i listen to music with bluetooth's headphones every now and then.

Greenify and Juice defender help a lot!
[RAZR i General] highjagger:
Using Omar Rom from 28. Llama was running with WLAN scan every 10 minutes. Also enabled zram. I dont know why Android OS uses so much. I'll try TP figure out with betterbatterystats.
[RAZR i General] ICuaI:
Llama wakes up your phone every 10 minutes to check wifi-status....
[RAZR i General] highjagger:
Hi,

Llama was not the the problem, after disabling Google location services (nlp collector) the problem was solved. Thanks to betterbatterstats app. But without location services Google now is boring... :(
[RAZR i General] totex71:
Omar m7 clean install with debloater after first charge. Havent used my phone as much as i normaly to the last couple of days, but still very cool!!
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
I haven't flashed the 28 zip, but Omar's M7 is proving to be awesome. I almost always get two days when I don't do any heavy gaming.
[RAZR i General] paulo28c:
Can you post screen on time?
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
Here's mine right now, with relatively heavy use. Browsing and music, no gaming though.
[RAZR i General] hotpokets:
Do you guys use 3G?
[RAZR i General] Omar-Avelar:
Judging at the screens clickstop has a usage case like me where out during the day he is on 3G and at night/home turns on WiFi, I also get 2 days typical with that pattern of use.

And by the missing cell power consumption on the top lists of totex71 it seems he either kept it disabling 3G + WiFi with some 3rd party app -- thats why he get 4 days :good:
[RAZR i General] paulo28c:
Looks like this phone has better battery life than the new moto x...
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
That's what kept me from upgrading :D
[RAZR i General] paulo28c:
True. Apparently mostly of you can get past 5 hours screen on. Max I get from my phone (note 2) is 5 hours screen on (on 3g).
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
What I have found with this phone is that it is great for heavy usage. Under continuous use the phone literally sips battery life, especially when web browsing. If I run out the battery on a single day *on wifi * I can get almost six hours. While the phone is great idle, you do notice a drop in screen on time for prolonged use. When I don't charge the phone for a couple days, especially when on 3g, screen on time drops to about three and half to four hours.

I love my razr I :)
[RAZR i General] L7iharsha:
Love my Moto!
[RAZR i General] paulo28c:
What rom are you using? From your usage, what rom is better for battery life?
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
I used to be on infinirom because it has great idle drain, but Omar's latest versions of his rom have really managed to catch up in terms of battery life. And it's deodexed too, so you can upload some of the kids from the theme section :) I'd recommend Omar's just because I like that is deodexed.
[RAZR i General] paulo28c:
From what I read here you're right. But is it better than stock? Talking about battery life of course.
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
I was only on stock for a few weeks before switching, but I can say that both are vastly better than stock!
[RAZR i General] paulo28c:
Ok thanks. I'm about to switch from my note 2. So I'm doing a little search.
[RAZR i General] doctorw8land:
When I got my RAZR, I expected great things. However performance doesn't seem to fit that... any ideas?

I'm running stock OS (4.1.2) with juice defender running on the side. Struggles to last a day of moderate usage, screen on around 3-4 hours tops.
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
You answered your own question, you're on stock. The custom roms provided here have much better battery life.
[RAZR i General] doctorw8land:
thought it was down to that, been considering rooting for a while so I'll see how much difference that can make
[RAZR i General] vimesUK:
This is whilst using the 2-09-2013 build of Omar's Rom and it seems typical to get around two days or so of use from the phone. Some Internet, Using the camera, Whatsapp+, the odd call and messaging is my typical usage - but not excessive use of any of them.

My wife's phone is still on stock and not unlocked, she uses no battery saving type apps either. She has her screen on a manual bright settings and uses her phone quite a bit but she typically gets around 2.5 days of use before she needs to charge - I suppose that there are some internal hobnomolies in each phone which can make them a little different from each other, in terms of battery life.
[RAZR i General] paulo28c:
I`m getting better battery life (than stock) using the 2-09-2013 build of Omar's Rom. The only thing I miss from stock is Smartactions functionality (like restricting background data when not using the phone and other location profiles -> not working on Omar`s ROM).
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
Could you compare screen on times with her?
[RAZR i General] vimesUK:
When we were both on stock JB that could have been a more meaningful comparison. By that I mean that I was trying quite hard to minimise the use of my phone to get closer to the average battery life of my wife's. Around 1.5 days for me was fairly typical and to get to 2 days meant that the phone would just about get there after minimum use and then probably switch itself off dead.

Now I can get to 2 days of use after using a lot of battery saving techniques, and removing apps, whilst using Omar's ROM (not the latest) but my wife can do this, and a little better, on stock. Things change, naturally, if I am using the camera or the Internet a lot, but that is not typical use, for me.

Her screen on time was showing around 40% when I last looked and when typically used she can get between 2 and 2.5 days.
[RAZR i General] ICuaI:

Wow good cell reception can really make difference. At two days I can only get about four hours screen on.
[RAZR i General] paulo28c:
Nvm. Omar deep sleep is unbeatable! Great battery life. I'm on M8.
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
Perfectly in line with my stats on M7, I'm averaging about four and a half hours screen time over two days
[RAZR i General] Krepostnoj:
I have Omar's M-Rom and if use the phone not so hard, then i get about 3-4 days, On stock Rom I had about 1-2 days.
[RAZR i General] Matthaues:

I recently bought mine xt890 and I'm looking for some tips about configuration to save battery at max.
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
Greenify all the things!

Seriously though, Greenify apps that you don't use often. Saves a lot of battery. I usually end my day with 60-70 percent left.

The battery of this phone is great!
[RAZR i General] nomboly:
Erm, I hace been using Omar's ROM forma more than half a year and I NEVER got more than a day out of this phone but, I never asked for help as I learnt about baterry usage. I have now been experimenting forma more than a month, bit I just can't seem to get it right. No more than 2hs 30min screen on time.

Using Omar 16-jul everything except what's app is greenified. Only apps that run are airdroid and what's app.

So, is there some trick I am losing? Is there a problem with my phone in particular? Is there an app like Facebook or twitter that even when greenified drains baterry?

Thanks for your help.
[RAZR i General] Luca2903:
Hi man, unfortunately, I'm positive that there is something wrong with your particular phone. In very rare occasions I had less than 3h screen on time. This on stock and other custom ROM... Sorry.
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
Run betterbatterystats and see if your phone is deepsleeping. If that isn't the problem check your coverage. Bad signal = bad battery
[RAZR i General] nomboly:
Yes, I'm starting to accept that my phone may have some kind of problem.

Yes, done, and out of 18hs (where it dropped from 86% to 44%), 6hs and 13min have been on deep sleep (from 5am to 11am approximately, while sleeping), 5min of signal searching 99% with strong signal, 35mins screen on time...

I can really feel that the phone has some periods in which it starts to heat up, out of nowhere, doing anything, and so it starts draining the battery. The only way to stop this is by getting the phone home and connecting it to WiFi, and it will slowly start to cool down. However, there are times in which battery seems to last forever, e.g. sometimes 5% means 6hs, sometimes 6minutes....
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
How odd, sorry bud :( maybe a full restore to stock will do the trick?
[RAZR i General] nomboly:
Horrible... Maybe it is the only way out, and I'm gonna try to go back to full stock 4.1.2. If it works I'll let you now.

Thank you all for your support.
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
Good luck! If that doesn't work, try installing this smt scheduler zip somewhere in this thread.
[RAZR i General] Tamsta_T:
in my case that heating-up thing happened twice already, both times it was on Omar's July builds; it never happened before that... When it happens battery drains very quickly (at around 15% - 20% per hour rate even if phone is not in use!) and phone becomes really very hot. I keep bluetooth, gps, wi-fi and mobile data off most of the time, second heat-up happened while driving, phone was in my pocket, so in my case it has nothing to do with wi-fi (I think). I have a hope that Omar's August builds will fix that, so far everything is ok :)

P.S.: row + powersave drains 10% - %15 of battery even then phone is not in use while row + interactivex2 1% - 2% only :good:
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
You guys should try running the phone on airplane mode and see if f the heat issue persists. Maybe we can rule out cell signal issues
[RAZR i General] nomboly:
I will do that tomorrow, to see if anything gets better. So far, no solution, not even flashing full firmware...
[RAZR i General] iolinux333:
Maybe the battery is just getting old. It's an old phone now. I don't know if high quality replacement batteries are available?
[RAZR i General] ColdKiller93:
Did you try running the phone without any microSD Card plugged in? Mine was getting serious heat issues because of a faulty one.
[RAZR i General] nomboly:
No, this didn't do the trick either.

Turning the phone to airplane mode only makes things worse because it has no internet to complete its tasks and it seems to get wild hot while not into coverage.

I will try other things. Such as a clean old Omar ROM without any apps, except what's app..
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
So it's a getting hot in airplane mode?
[RAZR i General] nomboly:
Yep, bit only with the ROM that I was using before. On this july-16 from Omar, less is happening... I have killed greenify, killed manual syncing, killed brightness, power saving and better battery stats and now battery usage is stable. I can get 3hs or 2hs 30min screen on. I think I am going to stay like this
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
That sounds about average. If it's still not doing it for you though try out the other roms in the forum they're great
[RAZR i General] nomboly:
I have tried the One ROM or smth like that, and it did the trick for almost a day, I mean, I was able to get 5hs 15min screen on time. However, the next day, everything went back to "normal".

I HAVE CRACKED IT THOUGH!!!!!!!!!! Solution displayed here (at least for me):

- Disable Google Now

- Disable Location Permissions (enable them when you need them, I reaaaally dont like this, but there is no other way)

- Do not Greenify Facebook or Messenger or Outlook, but rather uninstall them completely, wipe all of their waste of space...

- Turn off automatic brightness (yep, my phone has some kind of problem with it, where it is completely and continuously changing it)

All the tricks considered, not using Gravity Box gives me even more battery and I DON´T KNOW WHY, I JUST DON´T KNOW, AND I DON´T WANNA KNOW, LOL.

Thank you all guys, I am now getting 4hs screen on time or on Wi-Fi even 6hs sometimes!
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
Seems like you figured it out yourself ;P that's great though!
[RAZR i General] nomboly:
Yep, but I couldn´t have done it without this threads and XDA in general, help...

[RAZR i General] alpha beta gaga:
gps enabled? is the network set to 2g only or automatic? display birghtness auto or manual (and at what level?)
[RAZR i General] CentaXx:
GPS is disabled, network is set automatic, display brightness is automatic, too.

Had WiFi enabled for 2-2.5 hrs i guess, it does not disconnect once you connect it with the university's network, which is strage, because friends with iPhone 4s & Galaxy S2 are annoyed they have to re-login constantly (i think the network kicks users after 3-5 minutes of inactivity)

Comparison: I arrived with 82% battery in my university. With the Desire HD, it has always been around 70%, and it's battery is really worn out.

Before that, i browse the web with wifi 15 minutes, listen to music ~40 minutes, and either chat or (like today) read PDFs which could drain the battery as 95% of the AMOLED screen is white.

Anyway i don't understand why the RAZR i with almost double the battery power ends with 50% at days like these while even my old Desire HD made 40%.
[RAZR i General] alpha beta gaga:
i have gps disabled. network at 2g though i am testing with auto and it is not looking like it is using all that more juice. brightness i manually set at 3 different levels depending on where i am. never use auto brightness. whilst sleeping i let smart actions kick in.
[RAZR i General] CentaXx:
So the only difference is, that you adjust your screen brightness manually. For my stats today with that ridiculus 2hrs display on time i can't imagine this makes the difference. Probably i raised my bar to high when ordering it after my DHD with it's crap battery life, but by looking at other battery stats i just don't know whats wrong with my phone.

I will keep an eye on it and let it drop to 10-15% once, let's see if the razr will recalibrate the battery. I did expect around a third more battery life with the razr i than i have now, and that is a lot.
[RAZR i General] alpha beta gaga:
there are many more variables to consider from one user to another that affect battery drain

[RAZR i General] Tell Me Where is Gandlaf:
I think this is my record so far, plus it still has 17% to go. NICE :D

Brightness on auto. Had Wifi on all the time, with weak signal. Normal usage for me, nothing too strenuous - a few calls, emails, FB, HD Reader all syncing.

I was at home most of the time so switched to 2G because the in-door reception is way better. However I'm not getting the G internet symbol when in this mode when wifi is not available :confused: Surely I should still be getting some internet with 2G, I used to on my HTC Desire.

I haven't investigated yet but is it possible using Smart Action to automatically switch to 2G mode when I'm at home?

Anyway I'm more than happy with the battery life and overall it's a very nice phone.
[RAZR i General] Adamik25:

[RAZR i General] ZhaLinth:
Screen brightness on auto, BT and 3G always on. With about 4 hours screen on time my battery lasts about 24 hours or more.

From what I have read so far it also depends on your firmware some do better some do worse.

I'm running 81.5.32002 and am happy so far.

Hi, this is my first post in the Razr i forums, I love the device, although I hope there will be a Razr i Pro with a keyboard someday.

[RAZR i General] natera27:
I dont know why but y run out of battery very quick even when my razr i came with a 2300 mAh battery, I have the AmericaMovil version, use tasker to turn off wifi when Im not home and screen brightness to the minimum all time, use Go Launcher, any Ideas to get that awesome battery times like yours?
[RAZR i General] fabiocastilhos:
You have a lot of wakelocks (when your device can't go to deep sleep). Check the bars "Awake" and "Screen On". Your phone was awake even when the screen was off.

This app can help you track what app are causing those wakelocks

not particularly impressive...

my stats haven't improved after a week with the phone.

i wonder if there really is that big a difference between firmwares?

perhaps we should all post that bit of info too.

[RAZR i General] mauricio09:
I have the AmericaMovil version too (TELCEL) and have the same problems, the battery runs out quickly, it seems to be a problem with the firmware and the applications or system configurations that Telcel includes, in this coming days im going to unlock the bootloader and i'll try with another firmware, the retail brazil firmware seems to have better performance with the battery.

Finally my battery stats look the way i imagined it in first place. On page 2 of this thread, i complained that my razr i had 50% battery left with just 2 hours of display on time (!), now it's 30% left with 5 hours display on. The more disappointing the first result was, the more happy i am now about my phone, it really handles well even with heavy usage.
[RAZR i General] rasaf:
I am also quite pleased with the battery life. Last week I got more than 50% battery left after listening to music for 9 hours over a BT headset. My previous Nexus S was dead by that time.

Today, I ran the battery down and then recorded data points while the recharging phone was turned off. A 1200mA charger from my old N86 was used. The result is appended below. As can be seen, the charging is not a smooth function of time. It charges up to 50% within only one hour, the next 40% take another hour. The final 10% then take 1 hour and 10 minutes for a total recharging time of 3 hours and 10 minutes. Beyond 90%, the curve has a kink. So it is not gradually charging slower as it approaches 100%, but also slows down considerably for the last 10%.

cheers
[RAZR i General] yellowchilli:

Oh, the battery doesn't like JB / esp Google Now...

Google Now has exactly ONE feature i don't want to miss (duration of drives), i don't know if that equals the battery drain..

I dont know how you guys do it, the max screen time that i get is 3hours in about 48h of battery! I do use the screen for very short periods of time maybe thats it.

In the 48hours i use maybe 1h or 2h of web, 10min of talk time and wifi or 2g always on just to talk on whatsapp.

Upgraded to jelly bean yesterday or so so can´t really talk about battery life in this firmware but it seems about the same with google now off, i think i will get more screen time now as i installed lux auto to controll a bit better the light as the original settings for the auto brightness give every single time too much brightness.

I was hoping that in this jelly bean upgrade i would get an setting to change the light sensor sensivity like in the galaxy s3 but no luck so that's why i got lux auto.
