Are there any apps or widgets that displays time remaining on battery?

Darn it, I think I was supposed to post in q and a.

Yes it should go in q&a, and yes there are tons of widgets that can do this. Search the word battery on the market and I'm sure you'll find one that suits your needs. Personally, I use Sense Analog Clock, and create an activity link to its Quick System Info using launcherpro activities.

Once you use it you wont use anything else
I prefer battery monitor widget to juice plotter IMHO
Juice plotter isn't accurate and use Battery life by curvefish on the market pretty kewl. Plus having the option to see the battery temps as well a cool look

I saw the other threads and they didn't quite answer my question. I was wondering, is there an app, for root users on the Epic 4G, that can tell me my real time battery status? Such as the current mV?
Thanks,
Aaron
There are apps that show MV, you can see it in spare parts, but if your looking for a widget of some type I'm not sure.

Anyone know of a time counting app to display how long the phone has been off the charger? Kind of like the built in one in CM9 but one off of the market?
Want to see how long my stock EL30 lasts with heavy usage.
I have a feeling you didn't search at all and simply posted here for a quick answer.

I searched but didnt think of "uptime" sorry. I just simpply typed battery percentage or counter. Im a noob sorry

battery indicator is the app you're looking for. in the pro version i'm sure that you can see everything, in the free not sure
Ok thanks. I tried the previous suggestion but it just says how long it has been on.
This was exactly what i was looking for thank you.

why not better battery stats and not to mention for uptime in the settings it tells you under about phone and battery
So I have been using a bunch of apps today and under my battery usage it's only showing the standard stuff. I wanted to see how much battery is being drained from my live wallpaper but nothings showing..
The system battery display section doesnt display it. Use BetterBatteryStats. Search the thread for XDA bud

BetterBatteryStats is the way to go!
I have used advance task killer and tas killer and unimpressed by both, I want one to save battery and kill apps, anyone have a good experience with something differnt. See screen shot for rom and kernel Info

you're better off finding out which app is killing your battery and removing it. the only device i had task killer on was my old archos 101 since it only has 256MB of RAM.

Best one is to hold your physical home button until recent apps show and click the trash can.

Buzz words that mean nothing,
try a basic ROM with nothing installed for a day, if that works add stuff in till something breaks.

Yeah, you've got something wrong that a task killer won't fix. That's more than abnormal. Either you're running something/everything with bad sync settings... Or some ****e app is runaway.
Run "better battery stats" for a few days.

Wow.. maybe a bad battery? Or Rom?
Running Macksrom.. light usage I'll get 2 days plus out of my phone. Heavy screen and media still get's me 24 hours or more with no charge. This phone I've had no fear of using all that I please when unplugged. The only "task killer" i use is ES Task Manager to control my white list.
Also, that is running overclocked
Like someone said, find the app that's killing your battery and work on that first. I recommend gsam battery. If that doesn't help you then get juice defender. The pro option gives you even more options. There is no need for a task killer on android. The os is made to be as efficient as possible.

Battery calibration does nothing. Battery stats are wiped automatically everytime you charge to 100%. Task killers are worse for battery than not using one. Android manages apps just fine on its own, killing them with a task killer just forces the OS to unnecessarily wake up everytime it needs to restart a service. Your best bet is to use better battery stats to find what rogue app is killing your battery and/or using autostarts app to stop things you don't use from starting to begin with.
I like to break stuff!

Try gsam battery monitor from the play store to narrow it down.
Depending on usage, 6 hours could be normal. I get that with extremely heavy usage.

I do this quite often, but was curious if this actually closes the app? Or does it just remove it from recently opened list?

Don't waste time installing junk task killer, it will drain your battery. Just use the stock one. Hold home button and hit the trash icon.
The best task killer is no task killer

more than likely, as stated earlier, it is probably your battery. i had this problem with my stock battery as well. and yes it tested and charged fine but it clearly was not. after purchasing 2 anker batteries and charging them everything is back to normal and getting 2 days out of one battery with light use.

I was gonna saybthis but you beat me to it. Ics and jb have pretty good memory managment to begin with and the note 2 having 2 gb of ram helps a lot
Best way to charge your phone is a 500mah or 700mah charger. Takes forever to charge but the battery loves it better and gets a much stronger charge. The slower you charge the longer it lasts. Whenever I go to sleep I plug it into my pc

So the stock ota 4.3 is awesome for performance and smoothness , but for battery it is absolutely horrible, even with a rooted phone and a 7000 extended battery im only getting about a day and 12 hours with about 8ish hours of screen time, then when i was on 4.1.2 i was getting 2 days 12 hours with 15+ish hours of screen time
Im using the same apps as before , greenify , deep sleep battery , mediaserver killer, and wake lock and everything looks normal like 4.1.2 but draining way way faster
Side note i also turned off all my notifications , turned off vibration, turned all gps, locations, off, brightness all the way down, sync is off that dont seem to help
Anyone else notice this or is just me? Anything i could be missing that i should check

I'm getting the same battery life as I was on 4.1.2 I do not use greenify or any other monitoring apps of any kind as they are monitoring all the time which does take resources aka BATTERY to monitor I'm also on stock kernel and I tried the decimalman kernel and for me that provided a faster performance with conservative governor bit way worse battery life. Maybe your battery is going bad...

exactly, I charge mine like once every 24-30 hours and it's rooted on the stock 4.3 ota...remove all those monitoring apps, they're quite pointless.
I use the following rooted apps: adaway 2.8, titanium pro/donate version, clean master, system cleaner, root browser, cache cleaner ng
I ripped out all the Google stock apps like books, games, news, etc. I freeze Facebook cause that eats a lot of battery and only defrost for certain times...I use the browser for my email, Facebook, Amazon, even here like now lol
maybe you'll wanna try the kitkat 4.4.2 nightly rom? more battery friendly too, I have all files up to date and instructions to install it in my rooting 4.3 stock guide if you wanna check it out...totally safe to use
