Post your battery stats

Im getting some good battery life with this rom and kernel combo,i want to see if anyone is getting better results.
I get anywhere from 5½ hrs to 6hrs of screen time.My brightness is set to half,phone is in airplane mode and wifi is on,sync is off.

Odexed Blue Rom plus Trinity kernel with feew personal tweaks.

Can anyone explain this?I was getting 6hrs of screentime then one day out of nowhere im barely getting 5hrs.I even flashed CM10 and still not even getting 5hrs.
My battery life just dropped one day without any reason,any ideas anyone?

I'm on jellybomb 4.2 and I'm scared to upgrade to 4.3 because I can easily get a day and a couple hours. I don't turn off data or anything. I'm a heavy user

Thanx.Your battery life is real good.Thats how mine was before it dropped.You should get about 5½-6 hrs of screen time,thats the best i seen.
If you flash Trinity7 kernel it might improve it even more,it did for me.

Thanks for heads up on the kernel. I will check it out.

JB has been known to have very bad battery life. If your not rooted, it's hard to help you from here. Maybe try some of the battery saver apps?

Turned off diagnostics how does that affect battery life? And that usage was on 4g just got home and turned on WiFi. GPS is always off. Anything else?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

Turning GPS and WIFI off makes no difference. Those draw no power unless they're in use. WIFI only passively looks for a signal when it's on (every 30 seconds and gps is only active if an app uses it. Juice Defender will cause your battery to drain faster too.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

My battery life takes a dive when leaving GPS on all the time I don't know if it has something to do with jelly bean or not? It also keeps the phone awake, thus definitely using more battery.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

So many devs would like to have a talk with you...
T-Mobile Galaxy S 3, stock and rooted.

Actually the 4G radio uses more battery than wifi. Wifi can turn itself off after inactivity, having apps syncing all the time if you have it on will drain battery immensely. Mainly because it's suppose to be sleeping yet it still running and working and those apps will have a great time doing that. also depends how long you had phone, I have read batteries tend to drain faster after about 5 to 6 months of use.

Ever since Jelly Bean (cm or tw) battery life just isn't what it was on ics I was pulling 20 hour runs with 4 hours of screen time with ics, now I can barely get 9-10 hours with 2 hours of screen time.. It's almost like I'm afraid to use my phone because it'll die.. Very frustrating ik. Hopefully Google addresses this issue in android 4.3 (presumably key lime pie)
Until then, turn off Google Now, and maybe try to pinpoint some random app possibly causing wake locks and not letting the phone sleep properly (with the use of this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809 )
Also, I highly recommend checking out this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1969741

I know you said you don't plan to root, but if you're looking for some real results you may have to..I'm talking about flashing a new rom/kernel. If you do decide to go this way, I recommend a debloated and slimmed down tw rom with lean kernel.

Its a possibility I would definatly try before your out of your return period even on stock your battery life should be at least 4hrs on time with 12-14 hrs standby I've had 2 sg3's one international and one u.s. and both had triple almost better than that buddy

Why is my note crashing?

Alright. I got the note 2 two days ago, and I rooted it. If I use it for extebded periods of time, I cant unlock the screen and the led notification gies red. Help? Also, my note only goes 12 hours with full charge on moderate to high usage. Is this normal? Thanks in advance.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2

I've had a few random reboots and last night my phone tried to do it again and it froze up during that and the screen was black with the blue led on. Do you have any stock apps disabled? What Rom are you using? I'm stock deodexed.

I'm using the whomp Rom.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2

The only thing in common with that Rom is multi window, camera sound disabled mod and I have flash enabled.

Depends on the usage and what you are doing with it.
Running a ton of apps, constantly playing with the screen and tweaking things, 12 hours is pretty good.
Phone just chilling, 12 hours is really bad.
I just posted pics in another thread running on the Perseus 29 Kernel, with normal use I was able to go over 2 days on battery

normal sounds like light usage lol

What they said on battery. If you have a custom recovery (twrp or cwm) wipe davlik, cache, do the factory data reset, and system for good measure, since your having issues, then reflash the rom.

Battery draining fast

My T-Mobile note 2 battery is draining extremely fast its NOT rooted. So I don't understand why isn't draining so fast someone please help. And if anyone is having this same problem how did you fix it without getting a replacement device.

Check the battery stats for "gpsd". Mine started draining after updating to 4.1.2. It appears (for me at least) that the Samsung "find-your-phone-if someone-steels-it" was behaving badly.
If this is the case for you. Switch the service/function of and notify Samsung.

How many hours do you get when your battery is draining fast?

My stock phone started to drain fast as well. Within 6 hours unplugged I see myself having only 60 percent remaining with barely an hour screen on time. I tried to narrow it down to a rogue app but it seems the OTA was more plausable and easier to blame lol
Now back to using Jedi again.

It's called DIVE and does more than just recover lost phones, it is a management suite, not that I've spent a lot of time on it so far.

My phone isn't rooted. And Im new too this so I'm a little bit lost on what to do. Before that T-Mobile update I would get 24hrs+ but I'm lucky enough too get 8hrs and that's without heavy use

According to my usage scheme, I had to replace battery twice with s3, and once with Note 2, but this thing can leave even more than 10%!
It even can last five days if you leave it idle 24/7.
