Yes, use it now (Ulitmate) I have found nothing wrong personally. Mine's set for Data on with screen on, Data off screen off.. I don't have a schedule set or anything (i'm always off and on the phone anyway) does increase the battery life a bit.. Download, try it for a bit.. see what you think overall.
I did use it before, just the light version. it was indeed a battery extender. But now I am using ON(X).

Nope. IMO, battery saving apps like Juice defender burn more battery than they claim to save.

What does that app do?

Juice defender WILL help. I get about 24hrs to a charge. It simply disables data/location/wifi when not in use and can be customized to run different ways for different apps
-SlimBean...the bulimic's choice for the Galaxy III
Hope this helps. It's fully customizable and it does wonders. U can train it to learn your wifi and after a while, never touch the toggle again. Use it for games so they don't go online and pick up those annoying ads (if your unrooted). And u can schedule when the net comes on to get emails and so forth when your not touching you phone.

Been using Ultimate from the beginning and if set up correctly is the difference between night and day for battery life. It works very well with no problems whatsoever on my end.
+1 When setup properly it can save a lot of juice. Or turn data off when not needed it will save a little more than using JD. But I rather have JD running so things are seamless. For Streaming audio like Spotify I find setting for enable/screen off works the best.

Be honest and tell people you have an extended battery.
i got a small issue with JD ultimate:
i set it quite correctly i think, but then, it prevents datas from coming to my phone, even when they're enabled.
let me explain better:
i set it so datas are off when screen is off and on when screen is on.
so i turn my phone on, datas take smth like 5 to 10 seconds to enable, everything normal till here, then the small H or G appear meaning i'm connected through 3G, but even then, i'm still offline... i wait, and wait 5 mins, but still, the H or G is visible on top right of my screen but.. no data.
i disable juice defender, restart my phone, didn't solve.
then i uninstall it completely, restard my phone, and everything works fine again...
anyone could help me on this one?

Hey,
Just installed CPU Sleeper to kill off my second core when the screen is off.
Is there another program that will kill data connection when the screen is off, and only turn it on when i turn on my screen?
Would save ALOT of battery I imagine!
In AOKP, there is an option to switch to 2G when the screen is off. This works well, but the only drawback in my opinion is that it is a little slow to return to 4G.

I use the 2x battery app and it works great! It was a free download from the Play store as well.

This does what aokp does but as a stand alone app. Read op instructors install the apk or flash the zip doesn't matter. When screen off, you can opt to go to 2g and with a ton of options like not down shift if network is being used (phone call, downloading a big app).
On top of that you can choose to re enable 4G with a notification message manually as well as automatically. as sometimes when you screen on your phone only to check text or gtalk, aokp would swap back to 4G immediately and back to 2G when the screen goes off, killing a lot of battery in the process actually.
This app is seriously badass.

They often drain more battery toggling data on/off constantly than just leaving it on. And of course you get no push notifications when data is off...

Hi All,
I have installed the Juice Defender Plus. Since the first day of the installation, noticeable battery life improvement was seen.
Indeed, if u keep your data OFF (this consuming the most power) then...I can say that u do not need Juice Defender.
However, if u prefer an application to manage these settings automatically, instead of manually enabling/disabling data, then I recommend the use of Juice Defender.
Also, the application has a lot of settings that can be customized based on your needs.
I have it for around 6 months and I am still using it. I am stock...no root, no nothing
Hope this helps.

I mostly agree with this.
It really depends on your usage scenario though. If you don't use your phone a lot (or wake it frequently) during the day (and don't mind being 15/30 minutes behind on emails and other notifications), apps like JuiceDefender may potentially save you a bit of juice - if configured reasonably. I used to use JD a lot, and used to argue for it quite passionately. At some point, I stopped (I think I just forgot to restore it after changing ROMs) and I realized that I wasn't really using much more power during the day - and I was able to get real-time push notifications (rather than waiting every 15/30 minutes for JD to allow it). Now I just use Tasker to intelligently manage my device's radios under certain situations and my phone has no trouble making it through the day.
Eh no. It's the same or worse.
Plus I hate how I have to wait for data to reactivate.
--------------------------------------------------
If I have helped you.... hit that sexy thanks button. ^_^
I used to use it and it worked great. Battery life was great but my "smart phone" was not so smart as I was often not notified of any emails or data related content.
I mean you have such a powerful phone and I'm sure that is why you got it... why limit it? just a thought.
I started using a widget for my 3g. When I tried JD on PA sprint it slowed my 3g for some reason. I'm sure I could test it more. Or I could try not to be lazy and use the widget.

How about screenshots without the volume indicator? You can also try GSam Battery Monitor from the Play Store, to get a little more information on what is eating the battery.

What's your screen on time.
Looked kinda like liteflow might be causing problems?
Cell Standby i think is the one that is coded wrong and is lying, ignore that one.
If you press Android System in settings, battery it will show you the top components being used
Also in dev options look for and check Show CPU Usage. It will show whats using the cpu in the top right of your screen. Watch for what stays in the top few spots in the list.
There may have been something that didnt like the update. Try first uninstalling apps and if that helps reinstall them clean, no data restore. If you continue to have problems backup all data and factory reset. Start clean.
If all else fails use odin to flash the full LH2 fw.
LH2 should be a fairly stable build. Most have no issues and many get outstanding battery life. Im willing to bet its either an app or the way you updated or both.

That's really not THAT bad for a screen on time. I saw your screenshots in the OP, and you were down to 80% in only two hours of being on the battery, but you had the screen on for almost an hour of those two hours; 20%/hr for the first few hours is pretty normal. It's not stellar, but I wouldn't say it's an epic drain that being said, I'm sure you could squeeze some more juice out of it, and prob is just an app causing more drain than usual.
Also when doing a screenshot, it helps to hit the power button first, then the volume, so you don't get the volume pop up every time.

How do you know? What do you do with the device that will use all its power so quickly? Mine is averaging 2 days on a single charge with moderate use; there's no reason why anyone else can't manage that.
Besides, all those so called "battery saver" apps are just placebo's anyway; much like memory saver apps are.
Idk man. I tweet alot. and my 3g sucks battery... 2g isnt an option either....
I know battery savers are fake. I got no such thing like that running.
I think it is because everytime i check what apps are running, some apps are open which i didnt open myself at all...

Better battery stats is one of the best programs for tracking down what programs are triggering wake locks and bleeding your battery.

but the battery dies real fast..
i never turn on my wifi. i leave the standby thing for wifi on never.
i turn off basically everything except for my data.
i usually watch a lot of korean dramas and browse the web.
i was also wondering if flashing kernels would help increase my battery life and if so, how?
i really need help guys!
thanks for taking the time to look at this
For starters, turn on wifi whenever you can. Networ data uses a lot mire battery than wifi does. Wifi only uses excess battery when its constantly scanning for a connection. turn both off when not needed.
Also, any features you don't constantly use, turn off when not needed. Smart stay, auto brightness, auto sync, etc.
