Charge phone to 100% keep plugged into charger reboot in to cwr under advanced wipe battery stats and then reboot then unplug charger drain battery until it turns off this might help. Also if you are not using the stock kernel that could give you bad battery life

battery conditioning isnt gonna extend battery life as most people think.. all it does is give more accurate battery % reading.
battery depends on how much you use your phone, brightness settings, what/ how many widgets and apps you have and how often do you use them.
im running axura 2.1 just checked 17hrs 34mins unplugged with 32% left
my brightness is at 60% about 2hours total calls, checked ESPNscore about 5 times, roughly 100 or so txt messages, checked Yahoomail and FBook more or less 8-10times each. NO WIDGETS RUNNING, not auto synching with GMail.
** i always odin to stock, then after flashing a new ROM in CWM, i always wipe cache partition, dalvik cache, and battery stats before rebooting**
well hope this helps
Thanks

I'm running kyan 1.15f currently, no overclocking scripts or anything of the sort, but android system is eating 59% of my battery ! After just 2 hours of almost no use, I'm down to 79 % battery :/

Hi All,
Coming from a iPhone4, I noticed that even overnight when the phone is in standby the % drop in the battery is greater on the SGS3.
I am currently running the Omega V25 ROM and the battery drain when in standby is about 10-13% over 7hrs in standby whilst I am sleeping. I read a few days back on the Omega forum (cannot find it again) one of the users saying how great the battery life was for them...something like 1% drop over a few hours in standby....do you know if there is some trick to get such good performance?
I have used good programs like Juice Defender which brings it back to on par with the iPhone4, but does get a bit annoying sometimes waiting for the network connections to restart. Sometimes it even refuses to restart the network which is VERY annoying. I was wondering if there was something I am missing that can get great battery life (IN STANDBY) without 3 party programs like Juice Defender etc....
Thanks,
Ray
Its really all about multiple things
Make sure you got a good kernel. ..I recommend siyah
Imo juice defender hurts more than helps
Check your background apps running and close often
If your going to sleep turn off Mobile data unless you got stuff going on ...dl's dropbox ext...

Go offline on Gtalk, Turn off Wifi/mobile data while not in use. Other thing I do is Download CPUspy on Google Play to verify the Cpu Usage.
With power saving mode enabled I loose only 1-2% of battery juice over night. (Mobile data disabled, gsm only mode).

First thing you do is turn off the WIFI or 3G(Mobile data) if you are not using it.

What siyah did you flash? You must flash the kernel for jb leak which is 1.6 and not 1.5.3 because it is for ICS rom. Did you perform wipe cache / wipe dalvik cache?

Hi!
I gotta advise you that juicedefender/other battery defending apps hurt more than it should actually help. Think of it this way, juicedefender is also an app. App=RAM consumption, High RAM consumption=High battery consumption.
Also, flashing a custom kernel can help out. There are tweaks which you can do with custom kernels.
E.G. *Undervolting [if you are a total noob on this, then you might read thoroughly how to do this]
You can have manual settings to low screen brightness, not go to vibrate mode, led notif off, etc. And more importantly, CLOSE APPS THAT RUN IN BACKGROUND Such as: Facebook
You can never really rely that let's say, Person1 is having awesome battery life with KernelX because it depends mainly on your SETTINGS and STANDARD USAGE
I hope this will help you out

Well, I think it happened cause I put 1.5.2 siyah which located at Omega Kitchen...So I need to find siyah 1.6? then go Recovery > wipe cache > wipe dalvik cache? Is that so??

That's the reason why. Yes you can try that. Try to wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing siyah 1.6. If it does not help then the only option you can make is to full wipe and flash again the rom

Here are some tips:
1. Put wi-fi policy to never. It's in wi-fi settings.
2. Disable unnecessary sync (FB, google, email etc)
3. Install custom kernel, like others said.
4. Install better battery stats and find what's causing your phone awake (wake locks)

Whether Juice defender helps or not depends on your usage scenario and the app configuration (it literally has tons of options)
High ram usage equalling high battery coumption is bollocks. Each and every single operating system out there will try to fill the whole ram because it actually SAVES power and makes the device FASTER.

^^Was gonna post this myself.
Ram uses the same amount of power whether it is full or empty.
Having it filled with apps saves CPU cycles and therefore battery.

I have just recently downloaded Titanium Backup pro for my galaxy mini2 . it works so good with me but i noticed that the battery level decreases so rapidly ?????
is that because of the hypershell or not ???
and if it's the cause how to disable it ????
Use the BetterBatteryStats app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15869868 to find out what's causing the battery drain. I've been using TB pro for a long time and never had battery issues with it.

Battery drain is most often due to the habits of the user, not the apps on the device.

Hey guys, please post your battery stats by using app called better battery stats. I have to charge my every 10 hours. My phone was in deep sleep for 6hrs or so. My battery drain average is 10.4%/hour. So, please post your battery stats using better battery stats. btw, I'm using stock gb rom with tagb 1.2 hotfix kernel. My battery drains even in deep sleep mode (I guess, I'm not sure) The person who has best stats may tell us some tips.
PS: please download better battery stats app from xda, as the developer provides free version for xda users, but in market its paid app.

Even if we post our battery stat..
The problem lies in
How we use our phone
How old is our phone
ROM and kernel versions
Applications installed
and everything related..
You cannot compare an apple to a orange.
I think this is very decent battery life (using CM9).

We can't compare everything! We can compare something like which app they use for texting, which are the apps that keep phone awake; what are the alternatives for that app, what are governors people use for normal use! Etc

Depends on your usage. Of course, powersave would be in the running for best battery life, but it would not be ideal if you are a gamer or heavy user. I personally use a governor not available on any of the GB kernels as far as I know (SmartassH3).
Never liked SetCPU. I use No frills; simple UI, allows you to change governor and I/O scheduler, look at some frequency stats, etc.

Is governor suitable for battery saving? I'm a moderate user, I want my phone to sleep like baby, when screen is off and make sure that any app doesn't keeps my phone awake! I have upgraded the version of my better battery stats app. Will post the screen shot of battery stats in a few hours, would you mind if I send you the dump of my usage to you by pm! So that you could help me!

SmartassH3 is supposed to be a more battery efficient version of Smartassv2.
I don't think changing your governor will help with sleeping issues. Governors only affect how the CPU ramps up and down. If you have issues with your phone sleeping, then it is most likely one of your apps.
Since you already have BetterBatteryStats, you can easily check partial wakelocks and see if any apps are keeping your phone awake.
I really doubt upgrading the app will change the battery usage of your phone.
If you cared about battery life, being on stock is bad start. Why not use CM7 or CM9?

Just change the rom and Kernel.
You are getting so many bugs and yet you didn't flash new rom.
I recommend that you change roms and see what's best for your phone and your usage.
I'm not sure but the kernel you are using is for gaming I think. ie. More power, less battery.
Anyways here is a battery usage graph :
