It was good straight away... the whole "let the ROM / kernel settle for a few days" thing is just a myth :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Austin3161337:
Guys maybe it's the battery itself because when I first got the phone it had likea 60 ppercent and I restored all my apps etc the charged it for about 6 hrs. If I get a new battery should I keep it on the charge for like 10 hrs like the old phones? Or did u guys justuse it straight aaway.?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylec:
I used mine straight away without charging and battery has always been pretty decent. Same with all my phones
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
Me too, I just used it straight away until it was nearly dead. You don't have to condition li-ion batteries like batteries of old ;)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Austin3161337:
Since im still under warranty i just went back to stock unrooted 4.1.2 and now im gonna return the phone or if they give me a new battery or somethin idk ..I havent used the phone for a month and problems that i dont think anyone faced on their note 2 batteries happens to mine :(
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
Yeah man, just do it and see what happens.

As long as you have restored stock, removed root and reset flash counter you should be fine :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Austin3161337:
Since i unrooted i didnt reset my flash counter..and now its 3..lol fail.So now i should root it again and use triangleaway and then unroot?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
I'm not 100% sure of the process but there's a thread about it somewhere! Can't remember what section though I'm afraid. Think it's called return to stock or something like that ;)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Austin3161337:
What do you guys think im gonna return it and if they say all the Note II's are the same (Typical) and my note II isnt ****ed up or something?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
Why not ask to try your Dad's battery for a while? At least that would tell you if your battery is faulty.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Austin3161337:
So guys lm now-back to full Stock unrooted and igot 1hourand 6Minutes of youtube streaming from 100 to 89 I think battery is ok now but I want root..so if I root it the battery will suck **** again..?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elvecio:
So, an unrooted device will last longer?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
I've seen a few of your posts in the Wanam thread and stuff, and it just backs up what I've thought since the start... there's nothing wrong with your phone, it's just how you use it that's causing your battery drain :)

As for rooting... all it does is removes a security setting, so no it shouldn't affect battery.

Not necessarily. Very much depends on your personal usage habbits, what apps you have installed and how you set-up the phone in general.

There's no definitive answer as each person's experience will be different.

I've never used a stock ROM and have awesome battery life... no complaints what so ever, but then the next person might use the same ROM and kernel as me and get terrible battery life.

Just be thankful the Note 2 has a great battery to begin with... coming from a Desire HD I can tell you many stories about ****ty battery life!

Just factory resetted guys..now its so awesome..but keeping in mind that i dont have any sync or anything on this ill try to download my daily apps that i use and see how that goes..

Been getting nokia 3310 like battery life if i have nothing on it..lol
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
I'm telling you mate, it's one or more of your apps or how you use the phone that is giving you "battery issues".

So.... in addition to what Infinity has asked for, please list ALL of your daily apps.

For example, you use that LED changer app, which I know for a fact modes causes wakelocks if the alternating mode is used.

Also, tell us:

Screen brightness

Haptic on or off?

How many accounts sync

What is sync frequency (ie 3hrs)

WiFi sleep interval

How good is your wifi signal

2G or 3G used

How good is 3G signal

All these things can affect battery life.

I'm getting déjà vu here from your own battery thread but I'll try and help again :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Austin3161337:
Screen brightness 50 %

Haptic ON

5 Syncing account

1 HR

Wifi Off most of the time

When my wifi is on my Router is next to me so its pretty excellent

HSPA+

4 bars!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
Drop brightness to 40%

Turn off all haptic feedback

Increase sync interval to 3hrs, or even once a day / manually for less used stuff

Good

Good

Good

Now list all your apps and provide us with CPU monitor stats and BBS info ;)

BTW: Do CWM drain battery when using?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylec:
I wouldnt worry so much about screen on time as a number per say. If it lasts all day then thats all you really need isnt it?

I have my wifi and data on all day.

All accounts set to push sync (facebook, g+, instagram, email, gmail, twitter)

Screen on auto with fine tune set to max

A few of the motion settings on

Haptic feedback on

I typically get 4-5 hours screen time, but my phone lasts all day with mod to heavy use. Usually end on about 5-8% after 18 to 20 hours on battery and that is without having to cripple any useful features.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghoulhunter:
Hi guys, new android user here. I've found this thread very helpful but I was hit with a minor problem.

I've been trying to get the best battery life out of my Note II, and for me, that means very good idle and usage drain. So far I was able to achieve good idle time. I've got a good 7 hours 30 minutes of idle time with only 1% of battery used (from 100% to 99%). Afterwards I fired up Chrome and went online and browsed for a little bit and I noticed that the battery went down at speed. 5% down in less than 10 minutes.

I'm using:

Omega v8, RedPill 0.10, I undervolted -50mV on each step.

I didn't change the setttings from before I browsed, so the settings are:

Brightness slider all the way down (no auto), power saving mode on, wifi only, JuiceDefender's running, no sync - pretty much every other toggle is off.

I'm hoping that I can get a steady drain instead of a drastic drop like that. What settings should I tinker with to make it happen? Does changing I/O scheduler effect battery usage? I'm using deadline for now, but I'm thinking of reverting back to zen.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] friscoltu959:
You undervolted -50mV each step...

Can you explain that? I´ve installed setCpu but don´t know how to do that...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghoulhunter:
I don't use setCpu but I think it should be quite similar.

The kernel I use, RedPill, comes with Stweaks, and there's a CPU Voltage Control menu under the CPU_UV tab. Just minus every step by 50000 µV.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elvecio:
And is it safe? There will be some kind of consequences on performance?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenRoark:
The absolute worst consequences that I've encountered from undervolting is that the device chokes up and freezes because it doesn't have sufficient voltage to perform tasks. This is only dangerous if you've made drastic changes and don't have the means to revert back to standard settings (a script or whatever). If you want to be careful, you should always stress test each voltage change at each frequency step. There is a good free app on the Play Store for this purpose. Strangely enough, it's called Stress Test. ;)

Any good undervolting app should revert back to the previous setting if it encounters a major failure as a result of undervolting.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Austin3161337:
Damn sucks that i cant get through the day , i really dont want and dont need more then a day of use or more then that, that some of you get.

I Got 7 Hours and now 7 hr 41 min and now im at 18 % gotta say i love the on screen time on this though 3 hours 37 minutes and ive played GTA Vice city for nearly an hour from that time so that was nice i pulled out the phone from the charger at around 3 PM and now its 11 PM and got 18 % left.Pearsaus and Omega 8.0 (i heard Omega 8.0 battery wasnt that great compared to the other versions ? )
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] therockk:
You know playing graphics intense games uses a crazy amount of battery right? I've said it many times already. You should get your battery and / or phone checked out. Everything you do on your phone will drain your battery! Best to exchange it or deal with it....

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Austin3161337:
I just took it to the warranty and they said quote "You have alot of apps installed on the phone making the battery drain" I replied "Well,if your not going to install apps on it then why is it classified as a smart phone and has a Play store market where you download thousands and thousands of apps?" He then took the phone and said "we get alot of these issues and they are all software issues,we will install the latest firmware from samsung but that will wipe all your data" I said ok but will that fix it,I already have all the samsung latest firmwares installed(I went back to stock unroot) He said you can get the phone in 1 or 2 days max..

2 days to flash a new firmware F*CK lol. I hope that fixes it , obvouisly im gonna root it again..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylec:
Thats not bad. My gf sent her s3 to samsung for a firmware reflash because after updating it started acting up. Took 2 and a half weeks lol. They said they had to change the motherboard in order to reflash it. It was completely stock haha
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] therockk:
Although my battery is amazing. I picked up a juice pack case for my note 2. Basically it's a case with a battery built in. You can use it to charge your phones battery or you can use it the way I use it: I fully charge the phone and juice pack and leave the Juice Pack on so that way the phone first drains the battery of the juice pack then its own battery. I use this when I'm traveling, however in your case you can use it on a daily basis if your battery really is as bad as you claim.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schildzilla:
i can tell you my way to save power:

i am using the rooted stock rom, power save mode always on, checking emails every 5 minutes, permanent connection to im+ (3 services connected), sending my gps position every 30 minutes by email to my mailbox in case my phone was stolen and got minimum 70% left after exactly 9 hours when not using the phone too much. if i use the phone intensivly in that time it never drained under 35% (mostly 45%).

here are the most important power saving tips:

- download rom toolbox and disable every unimportant autostarting app like games etc (disabling the receivers) and enable ad blocking

- download app quarantine and disable apps you dont need or if you are not able to stop them from autostarting themselves by disabling the receivers

- download droidwall and select the white list mode (only allow selected apps to connect to the internet). check every app you are really using for the internet, but dont check games etc that doesnt need an internet connection. it has a widget to fast disable or reenable the firewall

example what a difference this can make: my girlfriends galaxy s2 needed to be charged every 10 hours because it drained down to 30-40% without (intensive) usage. after doing the above steps she always got at least 70% with the same usage. thats the half power consumption then before.

most power saving apps are totally uselessand dont make any big difference. the note 2 is a phone that doesnt need much power to run.

the most power eating things are the apps that have internet connection even if they are no internet apps or that are activating gps to send your position without your permission.

hope (i am sure) this helps
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BullHorn7:
I didn't go through 15 pages of this but the first thing you should've done is fire up BetterBatteryStats and figure out what's causing the drain.

After I flashed back to stock rom, it started Google+ Camera Something and had it run 100% of the time in the background, without me even ever signing into Google+. That drained my battery from 100 to 70 in less than 3 hours of idle.

Don't guess, use BetterBatteryStats. :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spidermoon:
Droidwall development is discontinued, i use Android Firewall instead, it's a fork from DroidWall.

I found it's also useful to limit background process in the advanced setting. I set this to 4, this avoid too many apps to stay in the generous 2Gb memory.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] starbury:
Use perseus kernel it took my battery life to a whole new level :D last like 1.5 to 2 days depending on usage. Definitely 1.5 days though
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gub:
If I understand correctly you lose 80% battery in 8 hours standby, airplane mode. This is not normal and tricks like "battery saver" kernels and undervolting won't help you : these things are only good for getting a few percents on an already well functioning device.

The most probable cause is an app or service eating your battery. I suggest using BetterBatteryStats to look at this : if most of your time is not spent in deep sleep, then you have a problem so look at the details and try to identify the culprit and reconfigure/freeze/uninstall. Watch out for data access too (for example using Shark), these also eat your battery really fast.

If you cannot find anything than your battery may simply be defective.

You connect through dnla and yes the internet web browser on the ps3 works great. And remember dnla ia only video, pics, and music sharing. It will never show your screen on the tv. You would need the hdmi connection inorder to transfer your screen over.

Lighten up bro, I was making a joke. This response just makes you sound young and as if you believe you are of some moral high ground. Nobody needs porn. It's fun to watch. That's not to say that those of us who do watch it don't have girlfriends or wives. Or if we do, that they don't put out. Your entire response is ridiculous and holds no truth. The only truth you spill is probably that "She wouldn't want me watching porn" and to that I say....so what? If you'd let her dictate such a trival thing now, I wish you luck in your marriage. KCCO

That's weird because I played it on my GNex and it worked fine. I use my own compiled ROM from source. I think I played it when I was running 4.1.2 and just now tried it on 4.2.1 and it is working fine as well.

It may be helpful if you mention the exact android version you are running now whether it is 4.1.x or 4.2.x so hopefully someone else may be able to help you play this great game :)

Good Luck ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MisterCub:
I've got the game and it works perfectly without any trouble on stock 4.2.1... It might be because you're using CyanogenMod but I don't think it should make that much of a difference. I've never had trouble with the start up or running the game.

Maybe it is easier to change your kernel first, delete the whole game and install it with the additional files from scratch before changing the ROM to something other than CM10. I use Trinity Kernel and the game is working fine on 4.1.2 and 4.2.1 as I mentioned earlier.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jar3112:
I tried but no luck.

I've dumped a logcat, maybe someone could help me reading it out to search for the issue...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ahmadallica:
I am not familiar with logcat but hopefully someone else will help in this.

Why don't you make a nandroid backup of your CM 10 then wipe and flash another custom ROM then try running the game??? If it works on the new ROM then you will be sure that it is related to CM 10. Afterwards, you can easily restore your CM 10 via the nandroid backup you made and narrow your troubleshooting to CM 10.

Just my suggestion until someone responds to your logcat :)
