Help Battery Drain

[jreink01]

I have noticed on my triumph running CM9, that my battery is draining really fast. After 4 hours (1/2 using it), it was down to 48%. I have installed Better Battery Stats and it shows that it was awake for 4 hours. Now, I make sure I hit the power button to put it to sleep but does anyone have any ideas why it would stay awake. Thanks

WiFi and/or BT enabled keeps it awake; you'll have to disable both to allow it to deep sleep.

I have the same problem. But I have a question: were you using it for 30 minutes or 1/2 of 4 hours (2 hours)? I ask because 2 hours of use will drain your battery pretty quick.

Anyway

I couldn't figure out why my battery was draining so fast. At first I thought it was because I bumped up the clock speed a little bit. But after some experimenting this is what I found: My media player (Player Pro) wasn't letting my phone go into deep sleep.

I use my phone to play music through the AUX jack in my car. When I get home I just yank the cord out of the headphone jack, and the music stops. But the app is still running. This happened to me at work a few days ago too, but I figured Juice Defender had crashed and Twitter went crazy.

Okay, enough rambling. My advice is: Make sure you exit your music player when you are done using it.

Hope this helps
