before I knew any better or what info to provide I asked for help with my battery a few times. I appreciated all the feedback I received over the last couple months since I've rooted my phone, but while everyone else seems to be discovering better battery off of the advice I receive, I'm stuck here in getting like 16 hours if I barely touch my phone on a good day. I'm sick of it!
So let me do my best this time with all that I've learned from several of you, either asking for help myself or following other threads, and try and provide as much detail as possible.. first my setup:
Hardware version 0003
ROM: Fresh 3.5.0.1
Kernel: Netarchy-toastmod-4.3.2-cfs-nosbc-havs-more (Governor: conservative)
PRI Version downgraded to 1.77_003
PRL 60674
Baseband 2.15.00.11.19
I have facebook for sense removed, friendstream removed, twitter, all that kinda stuff removed basically. My weather syncs every 3 hrs, my news does not sync, and my google account syncs whatever the default it (can't adjust freq apparently?). I have my windows live mail set up to check once her hour during peak hours but don't think that affects it much since if my screen is off for hours and it checks it every hour I barely lose any battery.
Until today I was running setcpu with min 128 max 998, today I tried some profiles (which I had before I had a HAVS kernel but not since) and saw dramatic deterioration of battery life. I read on a thread that it's ok to use setcpu profiles with the conservative governor, but not with the smartass. I'm not sure if that's what's killing my battery today because sometimes it just has bad days.
Ok, before the screenshots here's what I notice. My sleep battery usage isn't that bad. If my screen is off it barely drains. My problem is when the screen is ON, I lose a few percent a minute, no matter what I'm doing. Even if it's just on the home screen if I keep the screen off I see the battery drop by a few percent. If I'm doing something, like playing a game, I can expect my phone to last like an hour at most.
I removed my 4g toggle and I don't use 4g very often. I haven't noticed much improvement since removing the toggle. If I use 4g I hot restart to make it stop attempting to reconnect after I turn it off. I hardly ever use bluetooth, I use gps a little when i need it, and I use wifi at home or in the office when the signal is strong and its supposed to be lighter on the battery than a medium data signal. There are no widgets on my home screens except the weather widget that uses data and thats, like i said, only every 3 hrs.
I have my brightness set to pretty low. I used to use automatic because it's so convenient and thought maybe that was draining my battery. Since I've set it to really low I haven't noticed any improvement
Here are all the screenshots I can think of that provide any useful information.. but as far as I know everything seems normal from this.
These are the profiles I tried out today so far, I haven't given them all day to play out but by 3 hrs unplugged over 1/3 of my battery was gone. All I did was send <20 texts.
I'm pretty sure the high awake/run time ratio is because it's spent a lot of time on the charger. Whenever I check I confirm it's sleeping properly.
This looks pretty normal to me.
Nothing here stands out to me either...
I've been in my apartment all day which is why I have WiFi running the whole time.
During this time I hardly used my phone and in an hour it dropped from 70% to 59%. Notice between 14:48 and 14:50, I read and answered a text and lost 4 percent.
I have tried the airplane mode thing before and it doesn't seem to be the radio. Even in airplane mode if my screen is on and I'm doing anything on the phone I lost a few percent a minute.
This has been the case with every rom and every kernel I've tried. (Burnt droid, myns, fresh, evio, on netarchy 4.1.8-4.3.2 havs/nohavs/sbc/nosbc, htc 15, 17, 11 whatever) No matter what I end up getting decent sleep usage but horrible screen-on usage. This is the case even thought through this whole process since rooting I've wiped several times.
The best life I've gotten was when I just started I got about 21 hours light use with fresh 3.3 and netarchy 4.1.8(nohavs) and setcpu profiles. Since then I can hardly replicate that.
I would be so insanely grateful if this finally got resolved. Do I just have a defective evo? Everything seems normal to me. If there is any more useful info I can provide let me know. I tried to cover all the bases.
Thanks for reading.
