Improving battery performance.... - Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro

If you face problem with battery.. draining like hell..
then these tips are for you....
1. Battery Calibration
2. Control Apps
3. Device Setting
1. Battery Calibration
Don't use any application..
Just charge your battery till 100%.. Restart your phone
without remove charger..Important
after restart (battery show 60 to 98%. leave it on charge again till 100% + 2 hrs. more
Then remove from charger & use phone until battery drain to 0% and switch-off itself
Don't recharge between 100 to 0%.. then try to restart at least 3 time.. to sure drain battery completely
now connect your phone to charger.. after 10 minutes start your phone.
but don't remove your charger till battery goes 100%...Important
(sometime it take more than 4-5 hrs. so better in night) When battery goes 100% ...now you done Calibration..
Technically..
on every restart Android reset Battery (by wipe battery status)
So.. on 100% Android make Maximum level - on 0% minimum level
P.S. Do this calibration on every ROM flash or at-least one time a month..
2. Control Apps
Some Application consume battery do much..
i.e. Facebook, Youtube, Maps, Whatsapp, Viber, Yahoo! Mail / Messenger, Skype, Hotmail.com, etc.
so when you don't use these apps (running in background) kill them .
Better use Browser Bookmark instead applications
i.e. Facebook, YouTube, Yahoo! Mail, Yahoo Messenger, Outlook,
It help to save your RAM also..
3. Device Setting
lowest brightness..
lowest screen timeout
Close WiFi if no need
Close Data Conn. if no need.
Close Bluetooth if no need.
Close GPS if no need.
try to use dark backgrounds..
Try these tips then tell me how your battery work

Just one comment on your procudure.
The text as you wrote:
Don't recharge between 100 to 0%.. then try to restart at least 3 time.. to sure drain battery completely
Io-li batteries cannot be fully discharged. POwering up mobile at 0% (withou charger pluged in) just to exaust battery can lead to a permanent battery damage or shortage in its life.
The rest of the procudure may help (or not),

[Q] Battery issue..pls..pls..help

HI all,
I got some issue here,how to save battery life in gs2??my battery only last in 18 hours without running anything...anybody can help??i check the battery usage and the display use 50-55%...can i reduce it??how.....please advice
Pal..can you say what you need...what 18 hours....
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Thank's for reply...is it normal??
if can..i want to extend the battery life..any suggestion for apps??thank's...
If you wanna extend the battery life you should uninstall all apps that can possibly keep the phone awake. more apps needing CPU = less battery life.
also lower the display lighting if you have high battery use of it.

Yes, it's normal
Turning down the brightness will of course help.
Normal seem to be about 12-40 hours. Some apps are badly behaved, others just take a lot of power. It seems there might be a few OS bugs which come and go depending on exactly how you use the phone - some ROMS/kernels seem to help but it is difficult to be specific. Check the BetterBatteryStats thread for some ideas on debugging.
18 hours is decent, it all depends on how you use the phone.
If for 10 hours your phone's screen was on, then ofc this is amazing.

What is your brightness setting? When you are in the battery usage page, click on Display and tell us how many hours the display was on.
You should also check if your phone is on standby mode properly. When you press the awake button and the phone awoken instantly, then you need to restart the phone until it doesn't (e.g. 1-2 second delay is good). I had this problem before and it ate my battery like crazy.
Sleepy cat: my brightness setting is auto & already running for 1hr 38m...since i charge..last night..and the display percentage is 55%...how to reduce it??..
i already reduce my brightness.....
How to reduce battery use by display: Dont use it.
Simply flash the LeoMar75 2.4 RevolutioN Rom. The best rom!!!

I personally found the SolarFlare rom much better compared to many other roms. Have the longest battery life on that.
Use auto brightness, use running services to close what programs/services you don't need(for example I always close skype, yahoo messager, update software, out of milk etc...depends on what you have installed on it and what you don't need ) use static wallpaper and most important charge your phone OFF.

He's right. It's all about programs which are using your mobile data connection.
Thnk's all..really appreciate it...but i have doubt for auto brightness...i read some forum that using the auto is increased the battry usage??is it true??confius...lol..
18 hrs is not normal.....at least for me. stock rom with speedmod kernel.

Which ROM has best battery timings?

I have MINICM 7 Pro v6 for my Mini Pro, its battery timing is about 15 hours. Normal use with wifi and internet of barely 15-20 minutes, I guess its bad? I have the standard battery which comes with the phone. Please help me, I have tried the procedure of calibrating your battery (that drain battery totally again and again procedure)
What ROMs have the best battery timings?
ok, my english is not so good, but i try to write a few letters:
i phone around 30 minutes, send around 30 sms per day, 3G is always on, Bluetooth is around 1h on. With this "settings" my mini pro with GingerDX V17 hold the battery over 60 hours. - Bevor Ginger DX i have Stock rom (2.1) on my phone. with 2.1 an Black theme my battery hold nearly 100 hours.
At night i turn my phone into flight mode. So i have my alarm clock and safe the battery.
But if i surf in the www with the phone or install apps from the market, the battery drains quick

can you confirm these timings? This is almost 3-4 days always on!!
I never ever exceeded 2 days, with normal usage and 3G on...
Now, on MiniCM7 Pro, I can confirm the timings of TH3KiD: around 15 hours, with "normal" usage (3G on, several SMS, some calls).
Yes, it is so. I´ve also the Brightness from the Display at 40%. Over night at flight mode my battery drain only ~2% (~6-7h).
I don´t sync any apps (no Contakts with google, Facebook or beautiful weather). I do all this things manual (beautiful weather for example ~ 5 times a day). I´ve also turned off the "Background data" (unless i surf at the market). so my phone will make no updates or other thins, which drains the battery unnecessary.
Ok, the most people say at this point: "if i turn off the most features of a smartphone, i don´t need a smartphone..." - But a long standby time is for me more important than a update at (for example) facebook every half an hour or less.
I´ve found out, that the facebook app at the home screen also without automatic update drain the battery. After i´ve delete them from my homescreen, the battery drain not so fast.
Now i completely uninstall facebook from my phone. I make all the things on facebook with ma Internetbrowser (Opera mini)
Without this settings i also have to charge my phone every night.
I install GingerDX two times. At first my battery drain vom 100% to 10% in ~10h. So i made a full wipe and delete all "things" from my phone, than i install GingerDX a second time an since this time my battery hold about 60 hours.
The same at the update from 1.6 to 2.1 (original SE). First time the battery drain very fast, after the second installation it works great.
i post this also at "androidhilfe.de" (post 66) and the user "FOE" (post 69) can confirm this times. (at this time we have Stock SE Android 2.1 at the phone)

Battery Notifier

thanx buddy for helping but this is not the perfect one. Actually there is one app in the forum but i am not able to find out i did searching but didn't found that app so please any of you have that app or link to that post please provide here.
Wait... how do you mean overcharging battery? Did you tried to clean battery stats when charged? The only thing I've found is this: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration
It has option to notify you when it's 100% charged, but not in background.
Try Tasker with profiles

find this
For ppl who are still paranoid about over-charging their smart-phone battery (which is highly unlikely), this app allow you to trigger a ringtone alarm when say battery reach 50%-100%. This alert you when the charge is completed.
For ppl who face limited power socket for charging (say in some hotel or motel room for e.g) and you have multiple devices that need to use the socket for charging, this app allow you to configure 50%-100% to alert you so you can un-plugged your smart-phone to allow other devices a chance to use the power socket to charge.
To configure, set Ringtone for alert, select the percentage you want to be alerted when the battery charge reach and tap Save. Finally remember to tap Start to start the service.
Important points to note:
- Set screen timeout to be longer so the ringtone can play longer to get your attention.
- Disable any screen lock because it may prevent the app from waking the smart-phone up to play the ringtone.
- With 15 minutes to test the app, if you find not enough time to test, you can get it first and if not satisfied, drop me an email and I will do a full refund.
The application support English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese display.
Latest version: 1.0 (for Android version 2.1 and higher)

Q ] Battery life!!!

Hello,can anyone tell me how longer last your battery life with normal usage?
i've tried everything but my battery last less than 2h in normal usage, and not to be able to unplug the charger is pain in the head
Am using MiniCM7 by nobodyatall!
Thanks in advance : ]

Mine used to last about 4 days on stock rom, playing with nAa's kernel kind of buggered it up for me, so i'm not using that anymore. I've got my battery back to about 2 days now, but it's very erratic.
But that doesn't happen to everyone, so i'm not sure where the problem is with that.

Check what is hogging ur battery. The time the screen is on is what hogs battery the most, but in ur case is very extreme.
Did this happen right after u flashed the rom? or after a few days?
Try a full wipe and reinstall it. If problem still persist try a different rom.
If still no solution then most probably ur battery is dying on u. Best if u can test with a spare batt to cross out battery problem.
mine in standby (with 3g enabled all time) goes between 18 to 27 hours, depends of the signal strength and signal fluctuations
using it, (with 3g enable all time) goes between 4 to 6 hours depends on what I was doing and if I was static or on the move.

- 3,5hours of hard playing (from max to absolutely depleting the bat)
- 12 - 16 hours of normal using (internet, sms, calling, gprs still enabled)
- 2 days standby (with few sms, some calls...)
Latest minicm7 with latest nAa kernel, cpu smartassv2 122 - 600 (now at 691), swap partition 200MB, brightness about 25% - 50%...
i'm running MiniCM9-3.0.3 with the nAa-ics-04 kernel on my mini pro and the bat lasts ~10hours by normal usage (sms, calls, a LOT of twitter, g+)..
before i had minicm7 with stockkernel and the bat lasts ~6 hours.. after deleting the facebook app it lasts ~8 hours.. (the fb app used nearly 20% bat and i haven't used it..)
try to delete all apps you don't use..

On my battery stat page. Display is always at the top, somewhere around 60% :S brightness is set to Auto and I barely ever use phone in bright light. Display off time is set to 30 secs, but i cant make it any less. I need it to be this much. The whole battery timing is around 18 to 24 hous in normal usage. Dunno how long standby should be, never tried. Using MiniCM7.

What is time the screen remains on? I have a desireS, I can use it in 1 day or drag to 2 days and my screen on time will always be around 3 hours for both. with wifi/data on all the time.

[Q] Software or hardware issue?

Battery says its about on 6% juice and the phones turn off (first of all that should not be hapening). However bigger problem is that after it turns off, i turn it again and battery jumps to ~32 procentage. So pretty much I have to do it every time. WTF is that ? I heared a lot of users have this problem. so hardware or software issue ?
also battery gets stuck on 100% after charge. maybe gdr3 will fix it ?
Battery was ok for few days, but this night after charge battery overnight went from 100% to 77% (in about 7 hours) in stand by mode. Obviously thats not right so I did a restart and battery back up to 100%. Seriously wtf is that?
Every time after a charge I have to restart a phone to have a good battery life. How to fix it ?
is possible firmware release in your phone have bug... same model of Lumia dont have same firmwares... almost every operator or region release have different firmware...
also for battery saving use these tips:
turn off unnecessary background tasks (in settings - applications - background tasks)
limit number of Live tiles on start screen which uses internet
use simple picture for lock screen (dont use live lock screens)
dont use battery status applications (uninstall it completely)
dont use or limit some option for Glance screen
turn off or increase mail checking time

Are you running WAZE during your phone charging?
WAZE will drain battery so fast that isn't possible to charge simultaneously.
If in charge mode WAZE can damage your battery.

So probably nothing I can do, just wait for new firmware if thats a problem I guess.
