At the bottom of the pictures it shows that it was charged during the times the battery charge levels increased.
Lying?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

It shows it was charged a couple of hours before the up spike. I didn't mean it hadn't been charged all day.
Look at the end.

ROFL. worst self ownage ever. Hey, if your gonna come BS us, at least be intelligent enough to read a graph.

Seems I'm the only one that can read the graph.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk

I see it. I think they're focusing too much on the actual charging. Did you pick up the new nuclear extended battery?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk

Hah, no. I was hoping I hadn't lost my mind. Was trying to drain the battery completely. Looked at the graph and had to chuckle. I'm sure its just a weird calibration thing but it was amusing to me.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk

Yeah no, I know what the op is talking about cuz I see that on my galaxy nexus sometimes too, but he could've posted a better screenshot lol

Sorry. First time I've seen it. Can I blame the screenshot quality on the 5mp camera?

screenshot isn't taken from your camera lol
what i meant was that you shouldn't have charged it at all, like literally.

I have the Verizon one and noticed it too. It only happened twice and seems to only do so when I switch from LTE to CDMA and leave it like that for a while.

Yeah I admit my initial posting should have been clearer. : )
Honestly it was a slight jab at the camera too. Could it be better? Sure. Is this phone the bees knees anyway? Hell yeah.

LOL best comment thus far

Looks like I'm not the only one. It started happening with the new extended battery, maybe it just needs to calibrate to the bigger mhz..

yeah i noticed my battery went from 4% to 6% today.

GNEX is like a shake weight. Just keep shaking it.

[TIPS] Lower Your Screen Power Consumption

Hello guys I wrote a guide that will help you improve your battery life because screen is the most thing that uses battery, here is a solution for all that, don't forget that the screen sensor for auto brightness is also taking lot of power.
enjoy

And once again you made me laugh hard :thumbup:
I think we tested screen filter current draw on the nexus one and it showed no difference since its a software solution only. The mA draw remained unchanged using it or not.
Anybody noticed the difference, its doing great here.
This doesn't strain my eye as much, but doesn't see much on battery.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I've been using screen filters for a long time now. Great app!
Sounds interesting, I guess, but lately I've been thinking my screen is actually more dim than I'd like it to be. To be honest, I wish auto-brightness settings erred on the side of "more bright" rather than "less bright." There's probably a mod for just that, but I haven't really looked for it yet.
I managed 4h30m screen time on auto brightness, data on.

Best phone? Well the S3 because it is the latest with the latest in cool features.
Best phone for the time period? I would like to say the Nokia 6100 series. It was a very durable phone and practically indestructible. It had size, but not too large, and it was the first phone a remember that can get custom ringtones.....
Best overall, S3. Best for the time, MPX 200.

Pictures?
Yes I have it although it is very very small and very hard to tell (only if in sunlight at the proper angle. Shouldn't happen at all? No. But not enough to bother my OCD.....yet. If it gets worse and I think it will become a problem I will pursue a replacement so I'd keep an eye on it.

Nope. Mine is not that bad. It's only doing it in one small area right above the front facing camera. If mine was like yours I don't think I could get used to it. Although it's difficult to tell from just one picture. What I have noticed is that lint /dust gets caught in the gap. Kinda sux....

Got another unit but this one is not as bad as my first. This one I can live with. But unfortunately this one still has the screen smearing issue, and dlink wifi issue. Which are the main reasons I returned the first unit. I've found some work around so I think Im gonna keep the phone this time around.

What is this little "eye" icon for?

Can anyone tell me what this little icon means? It doesn't have a corresponding item in the notification area.
Is it related to that feature that keeps the screen on when you're looking at it, maybe? Screen shot attached..
Thanks,

That's the smart eye feature built in with the phone on stock or the ROM you are using.. Basically if you're looking at your phone, it will stay on as long as you are looking at it and thus you will see the "eye".
If you want a further explanation let me know. That's pretty much the simplest easiest way to explain it.

Only in so far as not having your screen helps save battery.
