OK, I have never seen anything like that before. Looks like some crazy power surge!

More like a gltch in a write to the battery log.
Unless you put it in your pocket around that time. :^)

Could I ask what app are you using to display the battery stats? I've heard of something called better battery or something like that, but I haven't been able to find it.
Thanks in advance.

His screenie is from the built on log. Go to settings/about phone/battery. BetterBatteryStats is a more in depth app that gives you more thorough statistics

Battery life

I'm seeing some pretty strong drain on the battery which isn't making me too psyched. I'm going to have to keep push off ... I tend to use bit Gmail and Exchange (work) but as you can see from the screenshot Exchange is a bit of a pig. Anyone else seeing this?

Install Juice Defender. Trust me, its worth it and makes your battery life last more than a day.

Click the graph and see if Email is keeping your phone from sleeping. No way an email app should use that much of your battery.

Brightness Question???

What the hell is this all about? Just wanted to play a game and I like my brightness turned up all the way. Ran into this and I've never seen it before. Any suggestions?

It's a precaution when the device starts to get too hot and brightness is very high. I only notice it while playing games for a while at a high brightness or on the rare occasion my battery gets hot when charging.

I figured something like that but chdecked battery temp and it was normal. I hadn't been playing games but i wanted to. And now My phone is not hot at all and it still won't let me change it. Very strange :O

Interesting. Are you on a new rom or have you been on whatever rom you're using for a while?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Yeah that was a thought of mine too. I've been on Calks for weeks now. But today i just flashed the undervolt 100 settings. So that could possibly be it. Only other thing i did today with the phone was add the GTA3 save in the other thread. Hmmm

Apparently a few things were added like the wishlist.

Pretty cool, however, why the heck can't they allow you to filter My Apps so you just see your purchased ones. And I'm tired of scrolling through hundreds of apps I tried over a year ago! Is it really that hard to allow users to remove apps from their list???

Yes so annoying
How come mine didn't update yet isn't it supposed the same be automatic
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Seems much faster but it could be the placebo effect. Aside from that it looks the same. Curious to see if I ever use the gift card feature. maybe I'll ask for one as an X-mas present.
Just read that the update also adds smart update feature. Now you only download the changed parts of the app, not the whole thing.

Post battery life here!

Here are the rules:
Post your rom, if you're over clocked or stock, what kernel, and the battery you're using.
A screen shot of battery life, screenshot of screen time, and whatever else you feel is worthy of showing.
Also this thread can be used in conjunction to talk about battery life tweaks, extended batteries, and anything else battery related!
Go!
Sent from my SGH-I317M using Tapatalk 2
I'll start.
Jedi X6, stock kernel, stock clocks, stock battery.

LTE on almost always, zero wifi usage.
Screen brightness is set pretty low. (my guess is about 15%)
Amazing for a 3100mah battery.
I see no need for an extended battery
EDIT: sorry I must be blind I didn't see the battery stats thread.
Anyhow that's my submission to that thread lol

Does this mean my battery is dying?

Can you put a new battery in a kindle? It's been steadily lasting shorter between charges.

Yes, you can put a new battery in the Kindle Fire and it's not too hard to do. Checkout youtube for some nice video tutorials on replacing a battery

Yes I was using it! I just think I used to get more than 4 hours of use on one charge. I'm about to give it to my granddaughter and don't want it to wear out as soon as she gets it.
