3 hours of screen on time with basically zero other usage other than what appears to be a few minutes of some motorcycle game?
Are you just turning your screen timeout to infinite, turning the phone on, and letting it sit to see how long it goes?

Wow, that's pretty good. You could theoretically get ~6 hours screen time with the entire battery which was unheard of prior to 4.0.4. I believe it was generally accepted that approximately 4 hour screen time is usually the max.

No ive been playing more games and been on xda, just my basic use of daily stuff

THAT is the actual battery improvement, the phone itself uses like next to none to run now, only the screen draining. I went from around 25% Android OS to like 3-4% (as well as other core apps went down).
I use my phone extensively (although no games), and my screen % is like 75-80% (at 95% of the time being minimum brightness [5])

Android OS used 3-4% before the update as well. The ~25% was a bug in AOSP 4.0.2 and 4.0.3. It just showed high use, but wasn't actually draining that much.

No story here. Just a fixed bug.

I'd think that a lot of this power savings comes from not using the LTE modem and just using CDMA. But I'm probably wrong. Makes me wish the 4.0.4 update would arrive here.

I see no change thus far with 4.0.4

Are u on the ota from the uploaded url, or the factory image from google? Iam on factory. Most people will say it dosnt make a diferance, but i am on factory wich will do a complete full wipe and will run 4.0.4 as if you got it out the box with a new nexus.

I'm seeing modest improvements:
autobrightness, 2h music, 4h 3g data, rest of wifi, stock kernel, interactive 350-1200
This is pretty good for stock kernel compared to 4.0.2 . It's slightly better than what I usually get with imo's kernel on 4.0.2

Hey guys, I have a question...its kinda off-topic and...dumb. The GSM version is the "normal" Nexus or the 4G LTE Nexus?
Sent from my E15i using XDA App
3hrs 30min of screen on time, and your phone was awake like 90% of the battery cycle. That's pretty much normal...
You were actively heavily using your phone for hours at a time. What the hell did you expect?
I have no complaints. On this charge I did a bunch of reading with Aldiko, playing with Maps and Earth, and some Flick Golf and a bunch of text messages. I don't think I had a single phone call. Screen on time was just over 3 hours. At this rate I could get an entire 24 hours on a single charge.

Mine's the best I've had on an Android phone, my Optimus 3D used to last around 8 hours, my desire around 10, my G1 around 18 (this shows how I use it and what I have running).
The GN lasts around 24 hours, in fact, since I got it around 3 weeks ago I've only been in the red twice.
I went out for my sons 2nd birthday 2 weeks ago, from 10AM until 3PM I was filming a LOT (including using the light when indoors) as well as taking photos. by 4PM it was still at 50%
and I'm loving how quick it charges!
Also, takes me around 1-1.5 hours to full charge...but I am not using the bundled adapter though...
The battery is definitely way way way better than the Optimus 3D.

Exceed 2 hours???

Anybody find a nice trick pass that screen time barrier??? Most people reach 2 hours and it seems no one can pass that barrier.
The only thing you can affect and make better is when the phone is off.
The farthest I've reached is 2h 30m on a light day.

Anyways, I had AOKP B39 + Franco 196, and it was amazing. 5.5 hours sometimes, usually 5 hours as the 2nd post shows.
Usually never had data turned on for more than 30 minutes overall, but Wi-Fi was on for most of the time. CPU speed was at 192-1036 MHz. Never really got around to UVing, mostly forgot about it cause I got such great battery.

3 hrs of screen time still 40% battery gsm running jelly bean ROM from ROM manager
Did I mention I use Verizon.
Of course GSM gonna stretch.
From 100% to 0 using continously, it takes my phone around 4/30 hours to discharge

On 4.1.1 when my phone is sitting on idle it loses about 1% an hour. I've only had a couple of charge cycles on JB but the best I could do was 2 days with 1 hour and 45 mins of screen time.
My best on ICS 4.0.1 was 3 days and some odd hours but that was with about 30 mins of screen use.
I charge my nexus every night! But yes, I use it a lot! Twiter eat battery!
so what? Screen on time is where the battery drains..
These posts are so pointless.
If you could legitimately get 6+ hours of screen on time then I'd be impressed

For me (average 4½ hours screen time in 20 hour day) I have stock JB ROM rooted with stock kernel and battery auto sync auto brightness mostly cellular data and no Facebook or twitter apps. I don't use Google+ so really the only thing syncing for me is gmail.
I use autostarts to keep apps closed, and do turn data off when playing games (that don't require it) to prevent adds.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
That's pretty awesome battery life. Mine was similar a couple weeks ago but I must have changed something cause I no longer get a day or two of battery life.
Couple questions, can you go to your settings and under developer options look for the Apps" section, what are your settings? I feel like that may have something to do with it. But not sure. Mine are set to unchecked, standard limit, and unchecked.
And lastly, do you mind downloading CPU Spy so we can see what CPU state your phone is on the majority of the time?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Mine started off quite good at 4% drain overnight for 8 hours (totally stock). This morning not so good - 6% in 1.5 hours. Google now being the culprit perhaps? Because I put my home and work location in, it now gives me traffic reports. Problem is the route it says is always completely different to the route I actually take so its practically useless now, so I've turned it off... see how it is now.
I like the concept of Google now but for me its not a whole lot of use.

Oh I see what the deal is now. You DID turn off data at one point, that would be the reason why it was saving so much battery.
It's always set to auto. I don't use fb or twitter, and only use one active weather widget. I hope this lasts. I've since gone through another cycle and made it to five hours again. When I was on 4.0.1 I barely ever got to four hours screen time.
... Forgot to mention if it's of any help this is all on wifi... Hopefully I'll get close on data, my signal seems strong though.

This is what I got after using it for watching a lot of videos on youtube, take some pictures/1080p video, listen to music and some web browsing over wifi. Not data connection and brightness in automatic ( used it indoors and outdoors )
4 hours screen time I think its pretty decent, its almost what I used to get with my galaxy note.
So very impressed with the battery, becouse I always heard that it sucked. Whats more, I already bought one 2000mA becouse of these comments. I guess I will get even better battery life then

Terrible battery life after updating to 4.1.2

I've had TERRIBLE battery life ever since upgrading to 4.1.2 a couple weeks ago. I unplug at 7am, and by 3pm, it would be dead with minimal usage (max 30min. of screen on time) I've tried factory reset, and deleting all mp3 files to see if it's a bad mp3, but to no avail.
Attached is screenshots of battery usage and badass battery monitor.

How do you hijack and thread?

Very funny. You said you have wifi off, op has wifi on. So, your issue is probably not related with the one op is having. So, dont hijack threads and open a new one.

i flashed bigxies stock 4.1.2 rom with trinity a67 kernel yesterday and gotta say i am impressed by the amazing battery life i am getting
I'm still talking about battery life after update so I'm guessing your just a idiot and have the reading comprehension of a 5th grader like most people.
Also I have noticed testing with my phone by forcing it on 3G only the battery life is much better so I'm pretty sure its the switching back and forth of the networks. That was for people who actually have a brain.

People who "actually have a brain" don't need to be told that 3G-only is better for battery life than 4G/3G.

Turning off Location Services seems to help.

Same here for me. I wiped everything, reflashed the stock 4.1.2 image and still have the battery drain, even with no accounts set up, location services deactivated, flight mode on and no extra apps installed. Drain is pretty consistently 5% / hour and my battery stats show no active states when the screen is off. I thought about it being related to a defective SIM card, but the same drain is observed with 2 different cards or even no sim card inserted. I have no clue what else to do...
I got my Gnex after JB was released. How was the battery life on ICS? How long could you have the screen on?

When I didn't use my phone a lot, I went home with 70-80% battery after a workday (sync fully enabled, working WiFi all through the day). Screen time was ~3h.
So, is it worth going back to ICS? JB is superb, but i hate not being able to keep the screen on for a long time. I read a lot on my phone.

Depends on what screen time you're getting now. My major concern is standby drain which is so high I couldn't get a decent amount of screen time if I wanted to. Oh, and and I use the European GSM Nexus, btw.
