I've been using several custom roms on my Defy green lense and i noticed an issue with the battery life.
It happens that every time i fully charge the phone, when it goes to 70% battery life it instantly drop to 50%, battery drain, even with STOCK Froyo.
But if i charge it to 69%, not fully 100% or over 70%, it goes normal...
Is the battery bricked ?
After updating my LG Thrive to 4.04 from 2.35 I have seen horrible battery life.
Although I had already done a factory reset I decided to try removing the battery to see if that would help.
First, here's the constants: I keep wifi/BT/GPS on 100% of the time. This was true when battery life was good, and now that battery life is bad. Disabling these will improve battery life, but will not fix my problem.
When the phone is sleeping overnight, I used to get 8-12% battery usage over about 8 hours.
Well I'll get straight into it, no matter which ROM I flash battery life sucks. I've gone from OA to CM7.2 with OC kernel now.
Just today I charged my phone fully, took it off the charger and played music ever since. I take a look at my phone and its at 70% after two hours with the screen off.
OK so i installed almost every ROM on there and here is what i found.
TOP.
:good: CleanGB ---- Takes the crown, super fast battery charge in less then 45minutes the battery is full. Over a period of 8 hours in stand by(as i sleep) the battery did not drop at all.
:confused: CM9 ---- Took over 2.5 hours to charge the battery, in 8 hours it dropped 12% battery life.
Hi,
I suddenly noticed a battery drain, never seen before. Using (new) Razr HD since 4 weeks.
On weekend picked up my Razr HD in the morning which was fully loaded evening before and complete drained when wanted to use. Had to put it on charger to boot up.:'(
Did "the test" again last night. Unit was fully charged at 10pm, unplugged it.
Recently, I dropped my Galaxy Nexus (which is running stock with the latest GB update) from the couch.
The phone seemed fine except everything related to the battery has gone nuts.
I've rebooted, drained and fully charged the phone, etc, etc.
I have not reset to factory however.
Here's what I'm seeing:
1. When I connect the charger to it, it sometimes wont charge.
I know we have a lot of battery life threads and I absolutely love this phone but mine is not getting good battery life. I'm an advanced android user, I know it well and I do know that some devices just have bugs which kill battery life.
I unlocked my phone, rooted it and installed Fish n Chips ROM.
My phone seems to have very poor battery life. I fully charged it to 100%, unplugged it, played a game for a very short while and I lost 10% battery withint 10-15 mins.
The battery just seems like a time bomb that doesn't last very long at all.
I've only had the phone 2 days now...
