Battery life

So far I've experienced excellent battery. I charged it fully when I got it home, and then unplugged it. Here are my results on an uncalibrated battery with moderate use except for when it sat overnight.

Not to shabby. This was with background data on, auto sync off, with the only the maps app being stopped.

Good one.

My Photon can get me 4 hrs under the same conditions. Let's hope the battery will get better after a few recharge.

From A thread over at androidCentrel posting Epic Touch usage.
Tkemack
Screen On & awake look to be on roughly 70 - 75% use within 14 hr
Photon doesn't come close to such battery performance .
I'm looking forward to some Touch custom roms Battery life will get even better.

Im in debate battery life seems decent for me but no where near what other people are posting. I got 9hrs so far and im at 20 percent with screen on for 4 hours. Dodnt play any games just some web, text and xda. Does this seem right?
The first four hours the powersaver settings were still on. So wifi on, no 3g,4g,no auto sync,brightness at 10 percent.
Last five hours Auto sync is on. Brightness is 25 percent. 3 mail accounts with mail only and I've only had 1 email pushed the whole time. 4g off. Wifi only the whole time no 3g. Screen timeout 30 seconds.

[Q] What the hell is this dip in my battery life?

So, at some point I turned off my phone and I -think- the sudden spike down in battery life is around that time.
Anyone got any explanations?

Mine has done that as well a couple of times. One time I had a charge of around 75%...rebooted my phone, and the battery was down to 15% percent.
Maybe it's just another bug we'll have to deal with until they come out with a fix.

thats strange mine doesnt have that much of a dip

every samsung product I have does this, gt 7, gt 10.1, droid charge, and this one. I don't recall my og droid, evo 4g or 3d doing this.

All phones show a dip when there is a battery pull while the phone is on....

Wasn't a pull, just a shutdown and reboot.

Hi, what app is this?

Stock battery stats lol

**** didn't notice that graph at the top.

well if your phone was rebooted then that bald would have been reset because it displays monitors since last power-on.
there seems to be a bug where the cpu fails to underclock after a certain amount of usage and/or load. rebooting after intensive apps and/or before leaving the phone idle for extended periods of time seems to solve the problem for me. yes i get that too.

Battery life

This phone is only lasting me about 8 hours before my battery will die. What can I do to help out my battery?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App

download an app call battery calibration, then after a full night of charging, go to that app and calibrate with the charger plug still in, after its done reboot phone and take it off the charger. drain the battery until it shuts off by itself. charge it back up while its off. then continue to use as normal. wait a couple days to see if the battery gets any better. my phone doesnt last too long either, im thinking of replacing the battery to see if thats the problem

Try removing some apps, that worked for me there was some apps that were sucking up my battery.

slap on a extended battery!

Kiss it three times, say two Hail Mary's and toss it over your left shoulder.
No seriously, battery life is very dependent on many things, and your statement doesn't come close to providing enough information for anyone to give you any real help. At minimum you need to provide the following during your 8 hours ...
- Total Display on time
- Brightness setting
- What you have auto syncing and how often
- Average signal strength
- Usage pattern (web browsing, calls, streaming video, etc.)
- Widgets on your home screens
- Screenshots of your battery usage and graph

My phone will also last around 8 hours if im constantly using it.

Thanks everyone for the responses. I will try out all the advice.

With moderate use, I get about 20 hours. With heavy use I get about 10-12. It's still enough to get me through the day
Love this phone!

How is everyone finding the battery life on CM10?

I would have asked this in the thread, but I'm new so can't make posts there. Anyways, for me it's pretty terrible.
It's been 9 hours and 51 minutes off charge and my batter is at 40%. The screen on time is 34 minutes and set to autobright. Anyone else getting anything this bad?

How long have you been using this ROM for ? It usually takes at LEAST 2-3 days of use before battery stats improve. That goes for every new ROM you install.

The battery in cm10 is great I'm seeing 1% per hour in standby just run a few cycles it will calm

I've been using p12v2 the day it came out, but I've been using the ROM since p5. Should I just run it through a few full cycles then?

Ah, I forgot I installed that. Deep sleep is at 58%

I recently had quite good battery life on eprj cmx(10). I got about 3.5h screen-on time, and in total a time of 6.5h. Look at my quote below(yip I just did quote myself).

I did actually use the phone as you can see. This is just very normal usage. Browsing, xda and flipboard mostly. Also running on the oc version and lowest screen brightness(which is still quite bright).

I think its just a bug, mine seems to stay on 100% for a long time too. It does drop eventually. The battery life is very good on this phone though. I've never had it run out during a day yet. It does seem to better reflect battery use at it gets lower.

Yes you are right after 90 minutes it's dropped to 99 and 98, I thought I have to restart to get correct reading but didn't
Sent from my SM-A705FN using Tapatalk

I have same issue. Stays at 100% after 30mins or more of usage. As soon at it drops to 98% battery drain becomes normal.
I did the calibration reset code *#0228# and it didn't change a thing.
Battery life is good on this phone but nothing impressive.

Probably needs a few charge cycles for the battery to calibrate properly, happened to me too.

Still going strong, no power saving , 4g all the time , Bluetooth all the time, alot of games, Facebook and YouTube

My battery life

this phone is excellent on battery life.
when i first used it and charged it to 100%, I noticed the same thing, and was confused, checked to see if the phone froze, etc. But then I started to feel invincible from the overabundance of power. LOL.
