Help with battery drain - Motorola Droid RAZR

Hi guys,
I recently updated to JB using HSD Pilot's update package, and everything passed fine. I experienced battery drain before and i tought it will be better for a week or two. But that didn't happen.. Is threre a way to make battery life better with some kernel or smthng like that, or with custom rom (I saved root)... I am a GSM user... Just look at the screenshots, my battery life is LAME!!
Thaanks!!

This doesn't belong in android development, please move to Q&A.

Try to use other governors and schedulers, turn off mobile data when not in use, use the 'greenify' app. It hibernates apps. Use your phone after full charge until it almost dies

Is that with everyday use? call/text/web/messaging. I had one on my Inc and it would only last about 2 days, and then gradually got worse, I popped my old battery in and got 1.5 days out of a charge with everyday use and I still use it and the battery hasn't changed.

Try one of the newer kernels like siyah or abyss aos bug is fixed.

If I flash a new kernel is it suggesed to flash it at 100% or it doesnt matter?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
It depends on screen on time in relation to time on. You can easily get over a day but screen on time will be minimum.
Take me for example, right now 69% left, 3hrs 35mins in, screen on time 1hr 52mins, heavy usage whilst I was watching formula 1. For me that's good.

Juicedefender

Does this app work I keep hearing great things but I've tried and either it didn't work or I didn't get it. Any advice? Thanks
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
It really makes a huge difference. All I use us the mobile data option, and I get an average of about 75% increase.
Yes it does. I've done a couple battery calibrations and use j/d and also see a pretty decent improvement. Not to mention using bi-winning 3 with the baling 1.8.8 kernal!!!! Great combo.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
If only there was something about battery life? A guide maybe with apps that could be downloaded.
Actually I have a detailed explanation on how Juice Defender works on post #3 and a copy of the free version.
Well this is what I get without turning off data or wifi just undervolting. No other special apps that's y I'm wondering.

Just curious why do you need your battery life for more than 2 days??

I don't know why, but Juice Defender wrecks my battery life. It keeps it from entering deep sleep so I've stopped using it. My phone is probably one of the unlucky few though.
Ya so I tried this on my G1 and never worked then I tried it on my vibrant and wrecked my battery also I was just always wondering if I didn't have the right settings on or something so I just forgot about it and move.on

[Q] What is keeping my CPU busy in the background?

My phone is Jiayu G3S, with a MTK6589 cpu and android version 4.2.1
I use latest xposed installer and latest gravitybox.
My problem is that something is keeping my cpu busy in the background, preventing it from sleeping.
For example, i left it last night, and i opened it after 12 hours, it was awake and using cpu for about 90 minutes.

My normal consumption is 0.3% every hour, but now it is 3%, like 10 times more. Also noticed greater consumption when screen is on.
As you can see, there is no strange wakellock that lasts that long and all my apps have settings not to auto-update.
I tried reading my logs but i didnt find any info.
I would appreciate any help
I dont know why my images dont work on xda

already did, the screens are right there.
Nothing, no system or user app, is consuming so much time.
But on CPU states i see that my cpu is used 100%, while its supposed to be sleeping.
I also used log viewers, but nothing ade sense to me.
Any suggestions?
From my phone the images are terrible and now from my tablet just as bad, I see you used betterbattery stats but have you tried watchdog?
If so try to post those screenshots as well, if I can't read them I'll check again when at a pc

You aren't the only One that app killed my battery faster than keeping the screen on pretty impressive how an app can manage to drain battery that fast and this is on my home Wi-Fi network. The app is trouble and if it's not draining battery for some people it's definitely not helping their battery either So best to keep it turned off imo.

Mine was doing the same thing even with the app off.. still running WILD with GPS .. climbing. Ended up killing it that way.. going and hitting FORCE STOP under apps, killed all background apps in Dev options.. Funny thing is.. first few weeks with this phone.. It never showed up.. Suddenly it's there and going nutz!!! (It's all fixed for now) lol :good:
This is what mine is doing.. CONSTANTLY. I can watch the GPS usage climb.. and i have location off.
