[Q] Good battery life? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi
Right now i have jelly belly with franco kernel build 17. But i get like 8hours of battery. Under clock to 700Mgz, undervolt, low brightes, and no data. So any help with this will be apreciated.
Ps: i use a battery saving app DX-Battery saver

Download CPU spy... and see if the phone is sleeping properly

It is. I only text in it. Most of the time its on deep sleep
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

Probably have a wakelock issue. And underclocking that far can actually cost you more battery because your phone stays awake so long completing tasks rather than sleeping.
Also, battery saver apps suck.

My friend told me that so i went to 1.5

Ok when I had 4.0.4, my battery life was terrible and that was because of battery leak from android os. Now , android os is taking battery normally anyone else noticed this?

Mine is not too bad. 78% after about 8 hours of usage, standby. I'm at work, so barely used the phone today.
Ah my battery life increased too. Glad to see Google fixing some problems ICS had.

When you are in battery settings, just press the "Screen" section and it will appear a windows showing how much time you screen has been on.

Same issue here. Gnex gsm, running stock yakju 4.2.1 (rooted), exept in my case Google Services is eating more than 50%, and screen ~25-30% .

Battery life...

Okay I've been reading reviews on people getting 20 hours on battery with the same usage as I am, but my battery dies around 12-15 hours which I think is pretty good. Well I'll post up screenies to show you guys. Just checking if my battery life is normal before jumping ahead and buying a new battery.

May I ask how battery life is on AOSP roms, like cm?
So what's the overall way to increase battery without disabling the awesome features of this phone? I read in this thread to over charge for an hour or two, but in another thread it says not to over charge the battery... I'm confused

It all depends on how you use your phone. If you have a bunch of apps synching, terrible reception, and the screen on the brightest setting all the time you most likely won't get good battery life. I'm more than happy coming from the Nexus 4 though. That phone had horrendous battery life.

I could get a full days use with my nexus 4 and only use like 40% tasker can work wonders. I'm going to try to it on my s 4 when I let the battery settle from all my changing apps and flashing

I just set up my galaxy s 4 to do the same, I'll try it for a few days. I just use tasker to set it to turn off internet unless I have an app open which requires it.
You can set it to turn on internet and sync at intervals too.
I didnt really change anything. Shut off all features. Brightness like 25%. But I did underclock to 1.3ghz. Which stilll ran really smooth.

The battery, somewhat, got better!
But I'm installing a kernel in a few to see if that helps!

Just do what I do. I use an old car battery and I soldered leads into the back of the phone. Sure, my arms get tired and people stare at me in Wal-Mart... but I NEVER run out of battery. :laugh: :good:
