Battery use playing heavy games - Galaxy S III Themes and Apps

Hi you lucky S3 owners. Could someone please tell me what the average use per hour is playing a game like:
Modern Combat 3
NOVA 3
Shadowgun
Please some info.
Thanks for taking your time.

Seems like no one plays games??

Brilliant
Since being a heavy S2 user i was never to impressed with its battery life (May have been caused by running a custom rom?) but i have a noticed a hugely significant improvement since using my S3 and it seems to handle games like a charm, Runs them extremely smooth and doesn't seem to drain the battery at all, I play NOVA:3 for hours on end and it only seems to take about 15% battery for an hour and half of playing, which I think is pretty good

Battery is brilliant on heavy games and multi tasking.after 3-5 cycles on charge, the battery and quad core really makes the phone fly with minimum drain.
@klinkso
Remember to calibrate the battery, after flashing.this can improve battery drastically on heavy drain

[Q] Battery life

What do you guys think about the battery life on this device?
Speaking by my own experience it's pretty okey - not on the upper front of the existing devices, but neither on the lower front. It's pretty mediocre, right?
But that doesn't make me satisfied, I believe it's to short.

By playing a wifi conected game, mine is up to 5-6h I think. Otherwise, It's like yours, 12h.
Hum... With regular usage (about 30min games a day + 2h music + normal stuff like calls and SMS, including about 1,5h of Wi-fi on) mine lasts about 36h, if playing games all the time, around 10-12h. But well, it's underclocked for "screen off", so even when the music is playing, the CPU is only running at 368MHz.
I'm quite happy with this stats so I have nothing to complain.

What kernel are you using ? and are you using the stock Rom ?
No, I'm not using the stock ROM. I'm using TuxBrothers' EUR XXLA2 ROM OC which comes with this kernel. Of course the fact that I set low brightness also matters a lot since the display is what consumes most energy anyway. Right now it has been on for 29 hours and has 28% battery left.
for me i think the battery life is fair enough, my phone is up for 19 hours w/ 40% left, internet, games, usual stuff, underclock on screen off, overclock @ 1800 sometimes , and w/ low brightness, im using cowithgun's OC rom
I find it amazing compared to my SGS2.
My wife's W, with low usage, no data on but WiFi always on, running standard Juice Defender will get 4+ days if no app has gone runaway or otherwise.
Very stock on latest XEU standard firmware.
Well I might agree with you that it's more than okey. In fact, it's really good compared to the other phones. - Changed my opinion about this subject, hehe.
Does anyone know if this new myth about battery draining too fast on KEZRA V4 is true? I feel it draining a little fast too, but I'm not sure.

[Q] Megaman Legends 2?

How does it play on the Xperia Play? I am getting so tempted to by this device along with the Mugen 3600mah battery and 64 GB micro sd. Anybody else have this set up with extended battery and sd? How it is for daily use also hows the battery life? Hows netflix on it?

Battery life on the Xperia Play is not good. You can get a day of use with moderate usage. It drains a lot when using wifi and playing games.
When you play HD games like GTA 3, Shadowgun then your battery is gonna drain like hell !
I was expecting better.
Lol? I optimized my device so much that the stock battery lasts like three days. The battery life on this thing is amazing, just use it wisely and optimize stuff.

What do you mean by ' optimize ' and how long do you charge your phone for ?
And do you play games on it and use wifi heavily ?

I have wifi constantly on but use the the general mode on both juice defender and easy battery saver and don't even get a days usage really (although I did just reinstall easy battery saver today). I haven't even played on any games. That's quite bad I think so what could I do to improve this? Not rooted
Sent from my R800i using XDA
Nothing too serious, i'm quite a noob at this stuff (first android device). I just rooted, cleaned the bloatware, frozen other stuff like the stock launcher, installed a very light launcher, disabled the boot animation (boots so much faster), did the adb setinstalllocation 2 trick, and a couple of other things. I mean, i always have low brightness and i only have wifi on when i need it, but i do play games. Of course the three days mark is only achieved when i don't play, but it definitely got even more awesome than out of the box (even there, it rocked, at least for me).
Anyone know if Ice Cream Sandwich update will improve battery life ?
reply to youngronn
I actually run the exact same stuff you wish to purchase, and i can kill the phone in 1 day if i play castlevania, symphony of night for about 11 hours straight, other than that for an average day of minimal use, maybe a half hour web browsing or so its drains about 6-7% in the approx 10 hours off the charger.
this is overclocked to 1.5ghz with a slight undervolt. the 64gb microsd works fine, i have aroundabout 10gb left free on it, as does the majority of psx emulation using fpse, n64 is a bit more spotty, everything older runs 100% perfect.
i cant comment on netflix because it isnt available where i live.
Confused...The title of thread is mega man legends 2.....so where is this game available for Xperia play? Is it on an emulator or gameloft?
Ios suckkss.
I just finished playing Asphalt 6 HD for 15 mins and I lost 16% !
So if was to play for an hour my phone would shut down right?
How about that right? How can this happen?
Why me?

Thanks are you running on the 3600mah battery?
And its a psx game ran off the emulator to the guy asking.
Also is there a compatibility list on this forum for PSX and N64 games?
I've searched and haven't seen one.
Most users who are saying that are saying that their battery lasts for 2 days or more are those who leave their xperia play on standby most of the time. Only use it a little bit here and there and a bit of gaming. Or are using a 3600mah battery.
In no way can you get 2 days of gaming full whack usage from the stock battery.
Played 9mm HD on stock GB 2.3.4 no overclock,oem stock battery
with 100% brightness,Wifi On,Multiplayer online,no data (airplane mode)
after 3- 4 hours of non stop playing,then it's shut off.

no,i didn't use anything to improve my battery life.
seriously,the battery are good to me,compare with my previous galaxy s2,xplay will give you aproximately around 30 min -1 hour more life.

seriously,maybe there is something wrong with your device/battery.
xplay does really have good battery life,at least for me.

About the Galaxy W Battery

How long should the Samsung Galaxy wonder Battery last for with continuous usage for web browsing and twitter for example ?
Or how long should it last for complete stand by ?
I am asking because I bought a new Galaxy W and the battery last only for very few hours with the usage mentioned above , and I wanna know if this is normal or I have to replace it ?
Thanks in advance

Do the first time 8 hours charge, and only recharge it if only a few % left(best if charging it after it is out of battery and shut down by itself), you may use battery saver application( eg Juice Defender, Go Power Master) as well

Thanks for info MyDeSTiNaTe ,
I have bought it about 12 days ago , and didn't charge it for 8 hours as you said , Am I supposed to do that now , and may this affect the battery life positively ?
Also please read my reply to other member here in the forum may be you can help me in that
But I am still very disappointed from the battery life ,
what makes me so disappointed is that I compared my Galaxy W Battery with Galaxy fit Battery , in a life experiment making exactly the same thing on both phones ( open wifi and download from the market ) , My Galaxy W take about 3-4 minutes for the battery to decrease by 1% , while the Galaxy fit takes about 30 minutes to decrease this 1% .
The owner of the Galaxy fit told me that may be the reason is that I have 1400 processor while he has only 600 processor , and the faster the processor the less the life battery , I don't know whether what he says id right or wrong .
So I am still confused whether to take it to the warranty or it is normal ,
Can you or anyone tell me whether the experiment result is normal or I have to go to the warranty ?

Thank you MyDeSTiNaTe
It depend on rom that you use and how often you use your phone. I think cm9 by arco is the best performance & battery life compare with stock rom. I installed cm9+juice defender, my battery about 16 hours. I use it very often, autosync whatsapp, YM & reply emails. I use stock rom before, I only get less 10 hours.
Sorry my English is bad, I hope everyone knows what I mean.

Not necessary.
You'll need to do 2 or 3 complete battery cycle (that is : charge until full, then let it run out until the phone shuts down) before the battery indicator gets accurate.

Yea, the 8 hours matter is just for first time charging after you bought the phone, after that just try not to charge it until it got a few % left
Look at my battery, lasted for 2 days with web browsing and frequent gaming.

Nope, Mutant Rom
For me the best Rom is F.A.W Release 2.
Awesome speed, awesome Battery life time, and I don't care about the design, which is Stock..
All in all, nice Rom, I'd definetly recommend it !
CM9 worked good too for me... but never as good as FAW Rls2 (talking about the Battery life time..!)
I'd also recommend you to Underclock your Phone when it's locked.
I have the following Set Up.
Screen on:
100-800MhZ
Screen Off:
100-200MhZ
Charging:
100-300MhZ [300 MhZ cause sometimes I use my phone a bit while it's charging. 100MhZ is definitly too low to write a Message via WhatsApp (well of course it's possibly, but seriously... who wants to wait minutes to answer on a message..?)]
That works out great.
I recommend this app/widget to set the Settings.
I think 1,4 GhZ is alot already... So I clocked it down.
And as I hardly play games, I don't need the speed...
Works great to Phone, Text messages (whatsapp etc.) Facebook, Browser etc.
Good Luck
Btw.

That means no Phone for me... I mean, even the Clock is a Widget..!
I have like 0-2 Apps running in the Background. But I try to remove them always... But sometimes I just forget about that, cause Im kinda distracted with other things or whatever.
Screen Off...
Sound like the Phone is only turned on, but nothing is used. Well than it can last that long.
But people say they're surfing on the internet, playing smal games, chatting and what ever else... And If they're battery lasts about 2 Days, and they stil have some Percents left thats awesome..!
But honestly, 22 hours is enough for me. I don't play games, only texting, googling things and FB etc. And Im at home everyday, so Im always able to charge my Phone at the evening
And here comes a Question..:
Is the SGW's Battery the same in every Country? I mean, I bought mine in Germany, as I live here. But is it possible that the Americans (for example) have more Amperes than the german version ? Maybe that can cause big battery life time differences..?

Worried about battery life

I am a heavy texter with medium to low wifi usage. Sometimes I play games on my cell (Everlands) & last night I did some chatting.Usually battery last about a day but sometimes it goes down like after 16hrs which is quite low for what I have heard about this phone. Any way to identify the problem is ?
Maybe that is because I did not really charged uninterrupted on the first day due to constant loadshedding here in my city (about 1.5 hr gap in charging). I've heard Better battery stats is a good way of locating draining problems but I couldn't really understand it well enough to use it to my advantage.
Also I have set my brightness to lowest most of the time so thats quite surprising. Also net usage is mostly web browsing, no google maps or auto sync feature enabled as far as I know. Any tips about locating the problem ? Could hard reset possibly solve this issue ? Anyway my phone is less than 1 month old (3 weeks old) so should I consider taking it to service centre & getting battery replaced. Please help.

The battery is calibrating within 3 weeks if the phone is new (5-10 charge cycles) so the problem might not be a real one.
Are you on stock rom, stock kernel?
IF not, do you have kernel with overclock capabilities (titanium kernel, kiss kernel)?

The calibration thing sounds interesting. Everything is on stock. The phone is unrooted though I once thought of rooting it & rebooted the phone in recovery. How much does the battery last for u ? Right now battery has gone from 100 to 86% in 12hrs with somewhat lighter usage. Is this normal ?

I'm having 48% after 10 hours with screen on at 61% but it is like this because i plugged in to my computer last night to put something on the sdcard.
In general your informations are alright, that is a fairly good battery life. Remember that you have a smartphone with gpu and cpu, and it is normal to eat battery even if when you don't play with it because it makes stuff in the background.
The great battery life i got at 3 days with 50% screen on, wifi, calls, sms at 10-15% but not on stock, using CM9/Paranoid Android and tweaked kernel for better battery life .
In conclusion, don't worry about it. Your battery is fine!
If you really want better battery life try flashing a custom kernel like KISS or Titanium and undervolt your CPU.
I managed to undervolt mine alot (-300mV while idle) and battery life increased to almost 3-4days, which is really impressive compared to 1.5days it lasted before.

Its usually 1-1.5 days for me,its always on eater wifi or mobile network.
And i text a lot.Gmail,Whatsapp etc.
Screen is mostly at 70-80%.
As far as i am considered thats good,a lot of phones these days cant even get to 24h.
It works perfectly stable with the following settings:
Clock VDD (mV)
'24576 700'
'61440 700'
'122880 700'
'184320 700'

'368640 700'
'768000 850'
'806400 850'
'1024000 950'
Took me about 2 days to find them.
Sadly you cant go any lower then 700mV, seems to be a kernel restriction.

In my last charge the battery ran for about 1 day 6hrs when it said low bat, which is fine for me. However few times it oddly discharged like in 18hrs. Maybe I played too much games & used a lot of wifi at that time.

"Battery calibration" is snake oil. Period.
Also, I have 2 stock One V's in the family, rooted but no custom ROMs. Both devices on occasion (once a day at least) appear to be in sleep mode but taking the phone into a completely dark room reveals the backlight is still on (albeit very dim).
This is the only thing I see that's keeping my stock ROM from outstanding battery life. Even as is it get good battery life, but I also double check periodically to make sure the screen really is off.

It's from Dianne Hackborn, android developer for Google.
from here
Root your phone, put kernel titanium kiss, make it with 1.2GHz and smartassV2 cpu governor and than flash with full wipe myOneV 8.0 rom, put display brightness to automatic you will have stunning results.
P.S. make back ups to your data but do not restore it all from recovery

Just my 2 cents dude,
but battery life drove me crazy with this phone. I wound up rooting my phone, installing a bunch of different Roms, and going through tons of programs. Bottom line that I've come up with is this, you have to root your phone. If you don't want to install Roms thats fine, but there are some that I have had great battery life with, namely Jedi MInd Trick and Rushing's Galaxy_ROM (currently using). Get yourself a CPU program and underclock the hell out of your CPU. I use CPU tuner with the uniform profile and max out the cpu around 1 ghz, the phone runs fine with it too. Finish off with Llama and you should be good to go.
Make sure data, wifi and most other crap go off when your screen does. Also make sure the cpu is almost off when the screen is. I have mine set to around 500 mhz .
It kind of sucks to have to do it, but it makes this phone much more tolerable.
Hope this helps
