Hello,

My XT890 is with stock 4.1.2, 3.0.34 kernel. I have been using it since past 3 months and have never achieved a good battery life. Like, on standby mode after a full charge it survives for 10hours and goes to 10%. If I use it for watching youtube or some songs, it drains within 3 hours. I think, this is because of the stock ROM.

Is there any better ROM that provides a good battery life atleast surving for a day with moderate usage like 30mins of phone calls, full day 3Gnetwork on with 30mins of browser usage and will survive for like 48hours on standby.

I am handing over this phone to my Mom who would barely charge it daily. So, I expect some good standby time.
Is there any ROM/Mod that may help me to achieve these stats?

Thanks.

I use the 4.1.2 en.GB Stock ROM and disabled a LOT of unused standard apps.
I am always online with WLAN/3G and Skype, Whatsapp, Email, and have a realy good discharge-rate of 0.8% per hour!!! :D
I recharge my phone after 3-5 Days.

i can later attach some Screenshots of my disabled standard apps.

I'm averaging 2+ days with moderate usage, emails, data always on (hspda+) brightness on auto, whatsapp, facebook, xda, chrome etc throughout the day and evening.

Standard euro 4.1.2 in strong mobile reception areas so its not constantly switching 2g, 3g or hspda

Sent from my XT890 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

    Sure. Well at least one and a half day is definitely possible. More battery life when you don't use it that much.

    I suggest you the One Rom and also the Razr I cleaner and Greenify for hibernating APPs that should not be in standby.
