thats just about normal, with normal use. unfortunately, most of our battery goes to the screen.

but i have seen screen shots of people having it upto 50 percent , do you think my kernal is acting funny or may be rom

they are just not really using their devices much. the more the screen is on, the more the battery itll use. they are just trying to fool you, to show you how long their battery lasts. but really, they arent using the device much.

thanx dude , that gave me some consolation :laugh:

Higher screen percentage is a good thing. Think about it: the power the screen uses is pretty much a constant, thus a higher percentage means less battery usage by apps and processes.

What does "lowest possible" mean? The lowest possible on the phone? That would be 0%, which is very dark and pretty much unreadable, so I doubt that is what you mean (although possible, I suppose, if you're a masochist). Or do you mean the lowest that you can tolerate? If you don't already have one installed, there are various (free) brightness widgets that can tell you the brightness %.
Looks like CM (7?), it would help if you tell us which build (RC1, 2, nightly, etc.)
The Display power consumption will vary greatly if you have the screen on a lot, and are actively using it.
Post your active screen time - it looks like you were browsing a lot. For only hour, I wouldn't be surprised if with plenty of browsing that your display took 30 percent of your battery usage.
I use my phone as my browser most the time.
What do u use your phone for?

If you're keeping the phone on browsing or watching video, your display will easily be 30% of the battery usage. This really isn't out of line, especially over a 1 hr period.
Now, if your display was 30% of battery after 10-12 hours of normal usage, it would be surprising.
If you expect this thread to go anywhere, you haven't given us much information to go on, despite requests by various users. Nor is it really clear if there is even a question you are asking.
I appreciate everyones help, I have figured out the solution by by reading everyones responses:
I am simply on my phone to much!
THANK YOU!

No, your answer is in the usage. If you leave your screen on, it will be a battery drain. This isn't an issue lol. And I think you would get more helpful information by providing us with information first. We're just guessing based on one screen shot of 1hr7min of usage and no explanation.

My battery is only 1240mah???

Dang!
I just installed Battery Monitor app from Play Store and I was sooo shocked seeing the app showing that my battery capacity is only a mere 1240mah!! :banghead:
Is this the reason why my battery life never reach 3 hours screen time??
My hox is 6 months y.o. but since I bought the bat life is already sucks. I just realized that I got a faulty one :'(
Only if I tried this app long time agoo so I can send it back and get replacement...

Your battery seems fine to me. It's hard to extrapolate this usage to the rest of the battery as it will fluctuate as processes start and you use the phone etc.

Thank you for your response , the only thing teases me the wake time of almost 1 hr it was 30's minutes to 22 mins of sleep.
I guess i will complete the drainage & post new pics
N.B. When i set a cpu profile defines when screen is off use 0 Mhz it held 1% for 8hrs
This is the reason why i am posting this

I wouldn't worry about it too much See how you go over a full drain (to at least 10%)
To compare, my phone was awake for 8h 51min 54 s, but screen was only on for 4h 35min 18s. I have ALOT of wakelocks mainly because I have everything set to push. But the phone still lasts me all day lol

I don't know why but my battery on the tablet drained so quickly even when it was off. I turned off my tablet with the battery percentage at 68 and then the next day when I turned it on the battery percentage was at 10. How can this be possible? Please someone help!!!!!

Android OS - keep awake

I got the G3 today and am still finding my way around. I am concerned that keep awake has been over 5 hours at this point. Can someone explain this to me or tell me what I can do to fix it?
Thank you!

Glad I came upon this thread. My android os is always 14-20%. But my battery life and screen on time are ok. I was really stressing over it my first day with the g3. My g2,nexus 7 are normally 8-11%

Glad to hear your battery life is ok despite having the same issue. Is there anything to be done about it? I guess I worry it's just adding stress too the system by being awake all the time but I don't actually know haha. Hopefully someone on here will know.

the only thing that you could do do decrease its awake time is to shutdown your phone. without android os yoour phone can't function
not without a custom kernel
