I am stock and unrooted HOX and I have 5 hours on screen time.
I need more on screen time than this as I travel a lot with heavy usage of phone.
I do believe that custom rom has more on screen time as they are tweaked for better performance.
Please share your on screen time and the Rom name in this post so that I can use that.
This is my current on screen time.

How on earth is your screen on time that good? I can barely get more than 2 hours of screen time on stock or any custom rom (including cm9, which seems to be the best).

He might be on edge only. Which in return, would mean that's not that great battery life for 2G.
Anyways, try Touch x-treme ROM. Dev is pretty great and his work on the i9100 was known to have some of the best battery life and hes trying to do the same here on the One X making battery optimized ROM
That the best screen time I've ever seen on a smart phone

And that 5 hours includes more than 4 hours of browsing. I get around 5.45 hours of on screen time too. But I need more on screen as I travel and use my HOX for all.

are you serious? thats sad.........I could get more than that on my Galaxy Nexus with 3G enabled. Straight web browsing with no standby I could hit 7 hours.
Plus, the Snapdragon S4 One X with straight 3G web browsing can hit over 9 hours of screen on time. Wi-fi only airplane mode the Int'l and S4 One X can hit over 10 hours etc....
if you turn off syncing, wifi GPS and the like you get much more battery life, i'm pretty sure its the auto sync for HTC facebook/twitter that drains the battery.

It depends on usage........everyones different. And it's to fake screen on time though idk why anyone does it or feels special doing so.
i installed a new rom, FOR THE FIRST TIME. "android Revolution" i charged it, 100%, i checked the battery usage and its showing as 4min and 19 sec??? is there something wrong? seems like its not accurate..
I don't know how you guys have all had such great battery life! Mine flies down if I'm even on flight mode and just have Wi-Fi enabled!

Well, since there are no custom kernels yet, I suspect screen on time to be similar.
You can change the governer, lower the brightness, etc.
Or just get an external battery pack to charge from, cheap, easy, reliable.
How is that possible? At 2 hrs with screen on my battery is dead, no gaming just browsing (not much).

What have you done in that time? Just curious. Used cam? browsed net with wifi or 3g?
Trying to decide whether mine needs to go back or not basically.
How many charge cycles did it take to get to this stage?
When you first got the phone, did you just charge to full then use?

I want to know what you can do to get 4 and half hours screen time.
I mean, unless your just looking at the homescreen constantly there must be either WiFi usage or 3G going on. Unless of course, you were texting for three hours straight.

You can game & watch movies without 3g or WiFi.
As I'm on unlimited data, I think I will perform a test of constant H/3G streaming,
as on my SGS2, I could easily kill the battery with less than an hour screen on time. (less than 8hrs total use - streaming for only 4/5hrs was enough to kill it - screen off aswell)
... Screen on time isn't everything.
& as I stream a lot, it's a test I could easily do, & one I need to know the results of for myself.
Hopefully my HOX will outperform my ex-SGS2 in this particular battery test.
... Streaming over mobile data, truly does eat battery, but I hope it's a long test.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Half an hour on max brightness with screen set to never turn off only took 10% so you got a point there.
Screen time on is a good guide to actual usage though, if the screen is on then the phone is being used. So out of a 14 hour odd day on battery you only use it for a few hours seems a bit poor.
I'm envious of people who seem to get over 4 hrs real world "usage".
There is already a battery stats thread about the battery life.

So you had a blankpage on your PDF reader app without touching the phone for 12 hours?
Seems abit pointless when on a stock Rom I ran the battery tester on full brightness for 1 hour and dropped to 92% thats 8% per hour.
100/8=12.5
My screen on time would've been 12h30m what's the big deal if I havnt used my phone...
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Blank PDF? I never said that. Its a 350 page file, which I read for 12hours. Without touch the phone I don't think I can scroll 350pages
That's impressive! Must try this rom... 23 h with battery with 12 hour screen on... Absolutely flawless!
setting brightness is all well and good but if i'm outside then it would be unusable, nice times though
if the phone screen was just on and without touching we can get more than 12 hours on screen post your pdf viewer time please.
@ nikorette 12 hours + on low brightness i can believe but 12hours+ with full brightness i cannot, people struggle to get past 3-4 hours screen on time with brightness on full so i don't know how you came to that conclusion. Must of calculated wrong.

========================================
I think it's a good idea to convert that thread to an official discussion thread:
[DISCUSSION] Average SCREEN/ON BATTERY time. How did you achieve that?!
This thread aims the users with an average usage (a bit of browsing, a bit of gaming, few clips on youtube a day, email syncing and other daily usage).
Guinness record seekers - go away!
RULES
- Post your ON BATTERY and SCREEN time screenshots
- Tell us how you achieved that
- Let us know about your setup: ROM, Kernel
- Do you use battery saving apps
- Any other information which might be interesting (some annoying wakelocks you got rid off etc.)
========================================
I always didn't believe how in the world it is possible with stock battery.
Finally! 16hrs standby and 4hrs screen time.
16Hrs with the normal usage from wake up till bet time is not that bad. Normally I'm having 2hrs screen time. So in those cases I hope I'll get 24hrs of standby.
My setup:
- Slim ICS 3.8
- Franco kernel. Latest nightly
- BetterBatteryStats for monitoring wakelocks
- All notifications i don't need - OFF.
Seems that notifications from various apps caused the battery drain. Turned them all off. Always was checking wakelocks and eliminating apps from the walelock list too.

Stock rom. 007 kernel. No syncing on since i check my stuff manually enough as is. Can get almost 6 on wifi and 5.5h on hspa if signal is good or better most of the battery charge. If not good signal, can still get 5 or near pretty easily.

of course your getting 4 hours+ with wifi on, it's the radios that drain the batttery.

I spend the majority of my day at work (no wifi) and then when I get home, I turn wifi on.

Hey man;
Sure the battery life in SGS3 is better, it has lighter processor (which doesn't help in heavy gaming, very fast in normal use though), more energy efficient AMOLED screen (which has less quality, but better brightness), and also the simpler TouchWiz UI (which is a bit childish in my opinion, but does the job well)
I get about 8 hours with heavy gaming (near 1 hours continuously) and web surfing (actually downloading, almost 500MB in total) and something like 1 hour watching music videos...
I get 2 1/2 - 3 hours screen time max! In the battery drain test my battery reaches 84% by the end of the hour, which I thought was great, but then again that test requires you to put your phone in Airplane Mode. The screen is a battery-hog imo, but its beautiful even with the stuck pixel I have haha.
LEt us get some more people to answer this one before we reach any conclusion.
Results are inconsistent for sure. Few people like me are getting 2 days average and few 2 hours!
For me it depends on what is running.
Normally I get about 14 hours of moderate use with 2-3 hours screen time.
Today I'm at 10hrs with 1.25hours screen time and I'm down to 11%. But I believe it is due to having wifi and viber running.
Personally it's my wifi that is really killing the battery. But given how I use it, it is perfectly acceptable
Is it true that non-rooted HOXs have poorer battery stats as compared to those that are rooted? If so, why?
I'm not rooted and am on stock everything.
How exactly do I go about testing the battery on my HOX?
Any tips for better battery for non-rooted devices?
I get about normal usage ( 3G-1 hour, Tegra games- half our, Music- 2 hour, SMS and Calls) 10h, just SMS and Calls about 30h.
The number of hours i get varies from time to time . On normal usage including listening to music, messaging, playing games and talking on the phone i get approx 4-5 hours max.

Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
@Skywalker, I am all stock. How do I go about making the tweaks in the Rom?
Very frankly after receiving OTA 1.28 my battery lasts 2 days after every charge . some tips.
1. While you are listening to music keep the screen off as screen sucks up most of the charge.
2. I do not let my battery go below 15 %, I have read that letting them go below a particular level reduces the actual life.
3.Try these small steps, it resolved the issue of low battery life for me as I had read it somewhere:
> Turn Wifi and then 3G off
> Turn either Wifi or 3G on again
> Do not keep both "On" at the same time.
4. Kill the Maps process by going to the task manager ( If not using it all the time).

Don't seem to have any rogue apps from battery monitors I've tried which makes sense as I've only downloaded about 10 apps.
Always have WiFi and GPS on which I always do on any phone, and have auto brightness off and set manually to just under half way.
I have dropbox set up to automatically upload camera pictures but under battery monitor this only uses 0.5% of battery use.
I also seem to have a faulty S Pen which sometimes seems too sensitive as it'll draw or open menus/apps with the pen about 1cm from the screen, and other times the pen doesn't recognise the air/hover mode and I have to press firmly to draw.
Any ideas?
Between this and the over sensitive S Pen, I'm beginning to think I just have a faulty phone!?
If it was as easy as taking it to a store I would, but I received it free with a 2 year contract from an online company in the UK called Affordable Mobiles who seem to have pretty good reviews. They've said if I want an exchange or them to have a look at it I'd have to send it back and wait 2-3 days which I can't do really as I don't have a spare phone - but at the same time I don't want to start rooting the phone and messing about with launchers if it is a fault.
Thanks
Turn off gps. Thats sucking away your battery mate. Turn it on only when u need it.

IMO, to get more than 1 day with WiFi & GPS constantly on is good. On my Note 2, I am usually left with around 30% of battery left at the end of the day but I never have GPS turned on unless I need it, only my WiFi is on.

So why are you posting this exact same message in multiple threads without explanation?
Try resetting the phone and check it for another day without installing any third party apps if it gives the same result that it must be a faulty phone. Hope it helps.

Thanks guys, I'll try resetting it as suggested and see how it goes for a day or two.
Hope it's just me expecting too much cos I love the phone otherwise and don't want to send it back lol
You didn't mention what screen time you had, that's the most important of all...

Not sure how you find that out tbh, all I can see is that percentage bar under the battery that I posted

You just press the screen icon in the stats.

You should judge your battery stats from your screen on time. Regular usage with sync and wifi and data enabled should get you between 5 and 8 hours, but it's possible to reach 10 and beyond with low brightness and no connectivity. If it's below 4, you can start thinking that something is wrong if you didn't do any crazy gps navigation or something, and start from there.

I always get under 4 hrs on screen with my 7105

Well, mine can lasts up to 2 days with Wifi turned on when I'm awake. Also I have roughly 5 hours screen on time on average. Quite achievable with heavy debloating of the ROM and using custom kernel and probably with some undervolting done too.
P/S it's my first Android. Still learning. Please correct if I'm wrong :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
So far on my third day I have 10% left with 1d 5h on battery and 5h 13m screen on time.
Regarding issue I mentioned about the S Pen, Samsung are sending me a new one to try and rule out the phone
nothind wrong with your battery 5 hours screen on is good don't worry everything is fine
