Develop Bugs

Is this bad/ok/good battery life.

I use facebook/twitter sms messages. Combined, i get about 300 messages a day, plus messaging a couple of friends.
I have juicedefender,
I leave 3g off unless I leave the house,
use wifi only when I need data,
I don't use an automated taskkiller,
background data off, auto sync off,
Bluetooth off, gps off, brightness: low as possible,
Screen auto off: minimum, keyboard light: 3 seconds.
I do the airplane mode trick, and kill the omadrm service. I think thats all. Remind me if i didnt do something please.

I got me a 3500mah monster of a battery and I never worry about battery life. The other day I had gone 39 hrs and still had 42% left. Sick.

Thats sweet. Sadly l, i still have the one shipped with the phone. So, for the battery i have, is it good life?
Sent from The Chaotic Void.

idk but looks pretty good to me i will check when mine is at 7 hours if it even lasts that long lol since i keep my wifi on and just use a taskkiller

Did you ever check?

I'm usually pretty friggin happy when mine lasts 6 hours...

Yours looks pretty good! I typically get about 8-9 hours off a stock battery with medium use.

I get better battery life without disabling any of that..excluding 3g since I don't need it.
I don't get why people buy a smartphone and disable all the smart phone features..........

What rom are you running?

Battery life

This phone is only lasting me about 8 hours before my battery will die. What can I do to help out my battery?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App

download an app call battery calibration, then after a full night of charging, go to that app and calibrate with the charger plug still in, after its done reboot phone and take it off the charger. drain the battery until it shuts off by itself. charge it back up while its off. then continue to use as normal. wait a couple days to see if the battery gets any better. my phone doesnt last too long either, im thinking of replacing the battery to see if thats the problem

Try removing some apps, that worked for me there was some apps that were sucking up my battery.

slap on a extended battery!

Kiss it three times, say two Hail Mary's and toss it over your left shoulder.
No seriously, battery life is very dependent on many things, and your statement doesn't come close to providing enough information for anyone to give you any real help. At minimum you need to provide the following during your 8 hours ...
- Total Display on time
- Brightness setting
- What you have auto syncing and how often
- Average signal strength
- Usage pattern (web browsing, calls, streaming video, etc.)
- Widgets on your home screens
- Screenshots of your battery usage and graph

My phone will also last around 8 hours if im constantly using it.

Thanks everyone for the responses. I will try out all the advice.

With moderate use, I get about 20 hours. With heavy use I get about 10-12. It's still enough to get me through the day
Love this phone!

[Q] Sleep of Death with Stock

So I read about other people having this problem with custom ROMs or rooted phones but I am on unrooted stock after OTA. I thought was one of the 60 or whatever apps I bought during the 10 cent promotion but I uninstalled them all and I still had the problem. It's not frequent but it's happened 3 times in the last couple of weeks. It's mildly annoying to have to pull the battery but the part that I can't live with is that whenever it this happens, my battery drains like crazy. The battery usage drops off a cliff and I caught this one after no more than 5 minutes. Any thoughts on this? I don't have an SD card so it's not that. Thanks!

to find the rogue app use betterbatterystats and cpu spy. not sure if they superuser. also badass battery works too.

Mine did this the other night on Calk's ROM. Something got stuck keeping the phone awake causing that cliff like drop off.

Happened to me on stock once, installed some game but didn't play it so I don't think that was the reason. It was either the default browser or the contact list.

Thanks for the replies. I figured it was an app but wanted to be sure before I started deleting things. I was just worried that this might be something to do with hardware or something.

I have same problem with different roms and i don't know what to do...

I had the same problem I figured out it was my wifi being turned on all the time. I have always heard leaving your wifi on when it's availible was supposed to save battery but I checked in better battery stats and saw there was almost 7000 wakelocks in a 5 hour period. I turned wifi off problem solved I only turn it on when I need to.

It is happend even wifi is off.

Your battery might be going bad... take it out and spin it on a flat surface if it spins freely the battery is most likely done.

My battery have 3 months old. My s2 is new....

Same thing is happening to my friend's white E4GT, I think there might be a defective/bad batch.

Is anyone else's battery on crack?

Usually I can go a full 16 hour work day without needing an extra charge, then last week it started not holding the charge so well. In fact Tuesday it had 30% and I left the house for half an hour, and when I came back the phone had shut off and was at 0. I hadn't even touched it. I am on a mix of Wi-Fi and LTE. Anyway, that was odd. Now look at the battery usage...

Do you have a screenshot of the stats when the battery went all out of whack?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium

My android system has been going crazy the last week or so, usually would be at 5% our do but lately has been 40+ easy... been to lazy to wipe and re flash as I'm sure that will fix the issue, but lately I've been near power all the time so it hasn't really bothered me.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium

I flashed with Highonandroid and got 30+ hours. Probably could have gotten double if I didn't kill half of it installing all my apps back on.
What rom are you using?
On the stock image I was only getting 9 hours.

it looks like weatherbug and google maps take a lot of battery

i never truly understood why people boast of their battery life when they have the screen on for 10 minutes in 2 days

if you are not using a phone, turn it off and the battery will hold charge for many, many days.

[Q] Is my battery runtime normal?

Hi everybody,
i'm running on Paranoid 3.6 und AK256 Kernel, and these are my battery stats.
Used the phone alot during the lectures today, tested this halo stuff (really don't like it).
But ~9h is just too little or?
System is just 2 weeks old, so pretty clean i think.

What's your on-screen time?
Sent from my Cyanogen-flavoured, AK-powered Galaxy Nexus

It was about 2.5 hours screen on time.
My stats for today are attached.
Screen on time is 3h 5min. The almost horizontal line at the beginning is in airplane mode but with wifi on.
Is this okay? It feels like that this is way too little runtime :/
Thanks a lot !

seems fine to me.

That's about average battery life for me. If I stand right in front of the wifi router + good 3G signal I can maybe get 3.5-4 hours screen on time. Else its usually about 3 hours on full wifi. Or 1-2.5 hours on full 3G or mix of 3g/wifi depending on the day and the brightness.

3hrs is my normal. Just go out n buy a separate charger and another battery or two (that's what I did) and u just have an extra battery on hand when u need it

Do I need a new battery?
Hi guys it's me again,
NOW I think my battery drains way too fast, I don't use my phone that often but I can't make it over one day!
Here are some screens, i know i've got 30 % left, but thats gone pretty soon
I'm running on Purity 5.7.1 (Android 4.2.2) and Fancy Kernel r36 extended version for quite a long time now.
Is my battery too old and damaged, should i purchase a new one?
Big thanks for any help !

Yeah, it's normal.

You're last longer then I do
