[Q] Is my battery runtime normal? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi everybody,
i'm running on Paranoid 3.6 und AK256 Kernel, and these are my battery stats.
Used the phone alot during the lectures today, tested this halo stuff (really don't like it).
But ~9h is just too little or?
System is just 2 weeks old, so pretty clean i think.

What's your on-screen time?
Sent from my Cyanogen-flavoured, AK-powered Galaxy Nexus

It was about 2.5 hours screen on time.
My stats for today are attached.
Screen on time is 3h 5min. The almost horizontal line at the beginning is in airplane mode but with wifi on.
Is this okay? It feels like that this is way too little runtime :/
Thanks a lot !

seems fine to me.

That's about average battery life for me. If I stand right in front of the wifi router + good 3G signal I can maybe get 3.5-4 hours screen on time. Else its usually about 3 hours on full wifi. Or 1-2.5 hours on full 3G or mix of 3g/wifi depending on the day and the brightness.

3hrs is my normal. Just go out n buy a separate charger and another battery or two (that's what I did) and u just have an extra battery on hand when u need it

Do I need a new battery?
Hi guys it's me again,
NOW I think my battery drains way too fast, I don't use my phone that often but I can't make it over one day!
Here are some screens, i know i've got 30 % left, but thats gone pretty soon
I'm running on Purity 5.7.1 (Android 4.2.2) and Fancy Kernel r36 extended version for quite a long time now.
Is my battery too old and damaged, should i purchase a new one?
Big thanks for any help !

Yeah, it's normal.

You're last longer then I do

[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.

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.

just press on top after you press battery usage on the screen that shows you the battery usage.

[Q] Galaxy Nexus LTE Battery Life

So I have the Incredible 2 and I get pretty damn good battery life. I am 90% sure I'm getting a Nexus in May, and I would like to know how good the battery life is. From what I've read AOKP with franco kernel and 4.0.4 radios gives good battery life. Can some of you guys post some screenies so I know what I'm getting into? Thanks.
P.S. I know there's a GSM battery life thread, which doesn't help me.
Ill try to help
Hey Friend!
Not able to post pics (new here) but I can tell you with normal use (occasional texting, website browsing, fb, email, and llama) and the normal battery I last from 7am to 6ish pm.
With the extended battery (same use, if not more) I can go from 7am to 11pm.
I've played with app background data restriction (to keep my gb cap) and after using it I found you can squeeze 2-4 more hours out of it if done correctly
Hope that helps!
Kev
There are enormous amounts of posts saying the lte nexus gets substantially worse battery life, about 2-2.5 hours of screen on time for the Verizon, and 4 hours screen time for the GSM version. But I don't own the lte just what's been posted.
SoooooooOoOoOOoooo many threads on this. People listing their usage and screenshots for dozens of pages.
Yeah there are so many threads about this we should have a "battery life" sub-forum lol. But to answer your question it sucks, around 2 hours screen on time.
This was today...
Sometimes it's better, but this is about average.

Coming from the original DInc, even undervolted with IncrediKernel, I find my GNex gets a bit better battery life and actually gets better signal (here in Boston anyway).

[Q] New to the S3

Hey guys I just bought my S3 maybe a week ago and absolutely love it! I had it rooted and flashed within the first night. Mainly my question is though when I first got it I was running super quick and my RAM was rarely more than 50% full. After rooting I installed the Anakonda rom, setcpu, and juice defender ultimate to manage my battery.
Now I'm coming from an iPhone so I'm still adjusting to the difference in the phone but it seems like when I don't touch my phone i can go 15+ hours and not lose any battery but the moment I start doing anything it plummets. I used Titanium backup today to remove some bloatware and could just watch the battery disappear. On top of all this my RAM is constantly staying >50% full.
Any ideas? Is it bad to have the ram so full cus honestly I feel like the phone slows down (ie going to home screen and have a black wallpaper with no icons) then all the sudden it flashes and its all there.
As I said, Im new to the S3 and Android and absolutely love it. Just looking for advice so no flaming please ^.^
Edit: I would also like to say I use GoSMS as my texting app with the emoji plugin so my girlfriend and I can send those crazy icons back and forth. If youknow a better app (paid or free) that can use emoji please let me know.
I get better battery life without juice defender on this phone.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
I get 14-15 hours with everything syncing, auto brightness, and no better saving apps, with 3-4.5 hours screen on time.
This is from today, notice on the right where it flattened out, I was taking a nap phone barely lost any battery.

[Q] Is this typical battery performance?

I'm new to the Verizon Galaxy Nexus (Toro), I just switched from a Thunderbolt.
So here's the issue: I am seeing much quicker battery drain than I would expect when running Carbon 1.1 (Android 4.2.2) or Carbon 1.0 (4.2.1). I'm going to try franco kernel today. Here are some screens showing stats. I replaced the stock battery (person who sold it said it wasn't holding charge) with Anker battery. I also disabled NFC wondering if maybe this battery doesn't support it.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, maybe I missed something with installing the rom with this phone, as I said before, I am new to the Nexus.
You might can squeeze a little more, but </= 2 hours screen on time is generally what you can expect.
Seems pretty normal to me. With almost an hour of onscreen time 53% after almost 7 hours is pretty good.
Alright, thanks for the input. Sort of not what I expected, as this isn't much better battery life than my TB. Would anyone expect an improvement using just 3G? I don't typically use data on my phone anyone, as at home and at work I have wifi

Not a substantial one, no, but minimal improvement maybe.
EDIT: Unless the majority of your battery drain is coming from data usage.. Torrenting and such..
I somehow noticed a much better battery life in 4.2.2 than 4.2.1
I am running ParanoidAndroid 15th Feb release and AK 691 Pirates on my maguro.
I have disabled sync and only sync mails 2-3 times a day and complete sync once.
And screen on time between 2.5 to 3hrs is normal for the GNex.

HOLY crap, my battery sucks! Why??

Hey fellow GNex'ers!
I'm currently running CM10.2 on my Sprint GNex. I just pulled my phone off the charger, set it in my car, drove home from work (for lunch), then back to work. Once I got to work (hadn't even turned the screen on since I unplugged it), I checked the battery: 88%. Now, not even 70 minutes later it's reading 82%, a loss of 6% with no texts, no screen on, no notifications, and my 3g is 3 bars, which is pretty good for where I am (and the fact that there are no notifications / data usage).
Can anyone explain what it could be killing my battery? I'll post the betterbattstats screens later (when I get back out to my car), but for the rest of the afternoon I'm going to leave it there so I can get a better idea of what's killing the battery. I'm so sick of my battery draining when I'm not even touching it!
My wife's GNex did practically the same thing this morning. Her phone died in about 5 hours, but she turned the phone off about an hour after turning it on... She's running stock 4.1.2
Edit: Lost 2% in 11 minutes, so we'll round it up to 1% per 6 minutes right now...
do you not have LTE available in your area? if not, thats your problem.

I do have LTE in my area, but I've noticed LTE takes up even more power than 3g. However, my work is at an Army post, and since the towers aren't located on the post itself, it's kind of rare for me to have a solid LTE signal. I don't make any attempts to change the way Android decides which to use though, because I find that it's fairly intelligent about switching from LTE to 3g when LTE gets low, and vice-versa.

So these are images showing that I lost 30% battery while only using the screen for 12 minutes... That's just ridiculous!
