I bought this from Amazon. Came with 2 batteries and a battery charger. Instructions say to "season" (full charge to full depletion) before using normally, 4-5 times.

I'm running Droidth3orys latest Axiom Patent Zero M3 with Francos 161 (for good reason, it's the best on battery life, in my opinion).
My settings are as follows:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

Right now I'm on my 5th full charge.
Average battery life: 8hrs plus or minus 15 mins.
Average screen on time 2hrs 30 mins plus or minus 10 mins.
Now granted it's only been 5 cycles, i was hoping for more legs on this guy. Not impressed but I'm not giving up just yet. Going to give it a week or so.
I bought the Andida 2200mAH a while back....same thing. Not impressed.
My daily battery is the Samsung extended battery (2100mAH) and with the set up depicted above I get 19hours / 4 hours of Screen on time.
My goal was to get rid of the bulk (extended battery) yet increase battery life, more to follow...

I also just got the same thing from Amazon. Only done two cycles so far but looking orrery much same as your stats. I will keep cycling hoping for better then,stock but probably not going happen. I did also get the Axel 3850 which is running top notch

You can't beat the charger either way,this is a great deal I think
A valid point, the charger charges batteries quick. And reverse polarization feature makes it really nice.

Try the stock battery and see your results... I get about four hours screen on time with the stock battery. If you're getting more with this battery I'll definitely purchase one!

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.

1.5 hours seems to be normal! take me that long from about 10% to 100% via AC

You're holding it wrong.
Yeah I can drain the battery with the best of them, but to achieve the above, I have to seriously tax the device and I would EXPECT the battery life to suck under those conditions.
Way to attribute a fault in one device to all of them.
This phone has great battery life. YOUR phone however, probably facked. However, if you're interesting in fixing this dilemma rather than *****ing and blaming the phone, maybe you can get some interest from this forum.
FWIW, I just bought a new Galaxy Nexus (HSPA+) to replace my Nexus One and the battery life is better. I go a full day and still have 50-65% left. I was worried because my friend had the LTE version from Verizon and his battery life was horrible (his would die in the afternoon / evening). I wonder if the LTE version has poorer battery performance?

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

In theory with a 500mAh charge rate it should take 4.6 hours to charge a completely dead 2300mAh battery (bad for your battery btw). So far with my phone on standby it's gone from 30% to 52% in 58 minutes (I have the stopwatch running).
In theory I should have a 5160mAh battery combined lol.

Turn bluetooth off of course. Disable factory apps. Turn on power saving mode. The performance difference is non existent, and it disables a few things that drain the battery. Turn WiFi off when not at home/a place with WiFi, I've been doing this to get better battery life since I've had my HTC HD2. Do this stuff, be smart with screen brightness, and the battery life will be really good. Best I've gotten was 1 day and 4 hours on my battery.
Have you rooted your device by any chance? Have you tried disabling Android Device Manager yet?

I get incredible battery life on my AT&T Note 5. While you certainly may have a bad battery in your phone, I'd still be more suspicious of an app causing problems. The same app installed on different phones can still have different results. The "Held Awake" entry in your screenshot (post# 13) at 2hr+ seems that it might be high considering how long the battery lasts for you.
You should investigate your App Usage entry to see if you see anything abnormal.
Cool. What is that under?
