ROMS, Kernels, Applications, anything? Better, What are YOU doing for better battery life? I'm getting this phone today, and rooting it.
There are a lot of threads ab how to improve battery life, but...i bought a 2100 mAh battery made by samsung and it's been great

Attached is a png of my latest battery life cycle......impressive!
Looks like it was barely used though.

How many battery life threads do we need?
Hey everyone,
I'm barely getting any juice out of the Galaxy Nexus and I was wondering if this is normal. I'm on Android Revolution HD 2.1.2 on the Jame Bond kernel oc'd to 1.4GHz and heavily undervolted. I mean I know its overclocked but that little battery?

Overclocking runs the battery down faster. That's just life.

That's worse than a non rooted gnex lol

Why would you want to oc anyway? There's nothing bogging the GN down.

As you are on a custom rom it could be down to a few factors.
1. overclocking is generating more heat and your battery is dying faster
2. bugs or issues with battery life on the rom you flashed
3. kernel is causing the cpu never to go into sleep mode
4. badly written application causing the phone to stay awake much more than it should.
Two hours screen on time isn't the worst I have ever seen..

What does the solid blue line under the graph represent?

I would think that since Google plus and Facebook account for 14% of that part of your problem is there. And your kernel. Undervolting probably just offsets the GPU @ 384 mhz. And overclocking seems unnecessary if that is your typical usage.
I was getting 4+, almost 5 hours display time on cellular data earlier this week in 8-9 hour rundown and my kernel is completely stock. If I had uv'ing I probably could've cleared 5 hours display.

That battery life is nothing to sneeze at. It's pretty good considering the OC settings and running apps imo... As long as you have a charger handy I wouldn't worry about the battery that much. You have the phone equivalent of a Porsche - no need to drive it at 25 mph to save on gas mileage
Terminators run on Android...
Okay I'm nearing the end of my first day with my new nexus. 5h 23m on battery with about 20 minutes of in car charging halfway through the day. I'm currently at 14% with 2 hours of screen time this seems pretty bad compared to my older Droid 2, will the run time improve over time?
I'm a average to heavy user so I was considering the extended battery but it wasn't in stock at the store. If anyone who owns an OEM extended battery or the seidio 3800mah could give me some insight on whether they think it is worth the extra money.
Thank-you in advance.

Stay on 3G until you need LTE.
Your Droid 2 was 3G only.
Is there an application or Widget that can make the process faster or easier?

BAMF has a widget as well, that can also be used with Tasker.
I searched BAMF on the market and didn't see anything what should I search for or is it an off market app?

It is part of the rom.
Or here.

good day.
Oh. Well I promised myself I would leave this stock for at least a month but I'll keep that in mind.

Well that's half of your problem. You're on a buggy battery drinking 4.0.2 base.
good day.
Is it really that bad?

Random question - but seeing how the GNex extended battery works on the T-Mo GS2, would the stock 1850 mAh battery work on the GNex?
Thanks!

Hello
I'm planning on getting the galaxy s2 or the nexus i9250, but I'm almost convinced with the nexus, but, as a previous s2 owner I know that the s2 has a good, if not a great battery life, so I wanted to get the nexus owners feedback on their battery lives
a screen shot of the battery section in the settings would be appreciated
thank you for reading
Not too shabby
