I recently got a plan with lte. I'm using tasks jb rom which is pretty decent. But on data it seems to deplete 1 percent every 2.5 or so minutes. Not watching anything but just browsing the Web.
Is that normal?

Welcome to LTE. Yes it can. That's the reason why some people would prefer not to have LTE at all. It's a huge battery drainer.
Browser uses more battery than LTE data does.
LTE + Browser =

Damn that sucks. I don't even need these speeds. I guess I'll limit it to HSPA or 2G, thanks for the replies.
Yes....LTE will kill your battery. Totally worth it. Lol

Yeah man, everyone has basically got it correct. What you gotta do is just try to use wifi when possible. I'm in college so I have wifi everywhere. Or just keep your charger on you at all times. If you have flashed your phone, JusTUNbean does a great job of creating an inverse GAPPS that saves so much battery.
Really? Inverted Gapps saves that much?
Is it because the blacks are truly black aka no active pixels?

The top four are from my house at various server distances. I know I am lucky with the wifi because I only pay for around 15. I never have had los and only saw it on my wife's stock epic touch once. I bought my phone off of ebay and I'm on the eg30 modem. I am afraid to switch with it working so great.

During peak hours I got this, much better than the stock Ek02 which was 0.01mbps down and 0.13mbps up... I don't know what Sprint is doing but my speeds are much better for the past 2 days
By the way I am on EL26 ROM Modem and Kernel. if that matters.
3g - 1189d 709u 138p
4g - 3772d 592u 139p
wifi - 11597d 4092u 30p
idk if thats good or bad at 1AM but it keeps me happy =)
So I tested to see how long it would take my phone to go from 100% full charge to 0% death. I want to know Is this or should this be considered good battery life? In my opinion I think its good battery with moderate to heavy use, but what do you all think? And how do this battery life compare to yours?
I'm on FC07 rooted and deodex rom, throughout this whole process, I had 4g, 3g, sync on and kept brightness at 25%. Some screen shots. 8 hours

Thats terrible compared to a gb rom, look at the awake time, what was running?

Looks like you were without a network for a lot of that time which will cause significant battery drain as it's constantly trying to find a signal.
There's another thread started to look at battery life and possible fixes check it out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23501965

Pics don't work.
It is probably a rogue app.
Download a free app from market

If your looking for applications to see if apps are taking cpu cycles there is an android info app in the market that can show you all processes and cpu cycles...looking for something that stays near the top and thats probably the issue. Also make sure that you have google now disabled, NFC, and geolocation if you dont check in everywhere. These are built in "very nice" features but they constantly pull your phone out of deep sleep on the move...and god knows we all want 2 hours screen time :highfive:
Saturday night, was having a late dinner after a movie & was sitting near 35E/Hebron when I looked down at my phone & noticed "4G" around my signal bars. I immediately try to load some pages to see how it loads & was cool to see them load faster. I immediately downloaded the SpeedTest.Net app & gave her a whirl. All this compared to the 4G on my Evo in my signature:

Funny thing was, I was searching earlier in the day to find out when/if LTE would be active.
I posted the screenshot & my cousin immediately responds with an image of his own down in Rosenberg, TX (Southwest of Houston, I think Verizon though):
Verizon just lit up LTE at my home and work. The going isn't that great but damn its fast.

Not great for you, but good enough to do most tasks
Pressed from my BANNED unified search enabled Maguro
I never got involved with this because between my gn and my s3, I have never had battery issues... Till today.... With the screen off, it drains 2percent every 6 minutes... Some things going on here...
Here are references... If you need anything specific, let me know and ill tell you...

Get rid of friend caster, it's holding a wakelock and keeping your network connection alive.

The percentage shown is not how much battery, but percentage running for the 2 hours and 3 minutes. Friendcaster 28% = 45.64 minutes run time.
