Hi XDA members and developers. I just got my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 International Version. 3 weeks old currently. I don't want to void any warranty itself. Is there any way folks? I lose 2% and hour just standby. and 10% and hour in Wi-Fi use.
WiFi - Moderate Use
SMS - Moderate Use
Cellular Data - OFF and GSM Only mode
PowerSaving Mode
Sync Off
Carrier - Sun Cellular Philippines
I posted my current device condition and status and downloaded application.
Please help me. I believe that SGN2 is a beast when it comes to battery.
Or If root is the solution. Give me tips.
There is nothing wrong i can see in your image 1. You have kept screen on almost half the time. it was even not fully charged (appr 95%) and still after 2 hrs of use it is about 83%. 12 % use with nearly 1 hr screen on time is normal when you have poor network.
Look to network, hardly you had 5-10 min good network, otherwise all the time you have it poor coverage, which is most juice drainer.
Thanks dr. Ketan

Dr. Ketan thanks for that advice. I tried other carrier and it is now good and mostly green network. You're the best. I read all your posts and it is very helpful. A thanks meter to you. If ever I will root I will look to your post in How to root Galaxy note 2. Thank the doctor.
And last question. How about in my image 2 which is the stats of wakelock detector? Is that normal? the 1013? It bothers me a lot every time I look to wakelock. I know rooting can improve battery life but it's not my option right now. Thanks!!

Your wakelock are normal. Don't worry about it. As dr.ketan said your network drains more.

Turn off the phone.
You have kept screen on almost half the time.
There is a battery saving option in the S Pen menu.
He he. Most smartphones can never hope to drop only 10% in an hour of screen on time. My i9505 drops that much in 30 minutes.

I must be doing either something really wrong or else...
My battery last me a little over one hour on standard battery (original rom+root) and that's me even using lean kernel. I've seen on forum some people were able to get as much as four hours of their screen why is it with my phone I'm only about to do so little?
What's the best so to see what's going on with my phone, who eats my battery, which apps are doing something that they shouldn't.
It really is killing me, I want to be able to enjoy my phone longer.

It is normal that the screen uses a lot of juice. What is more interesting is which apps are on 2nd and 3 spot. Do post screenshots if you can.

I will post pictures later, but here is quick overview:
#1 is _ALWAYS_ : Screen
#2, #3, #4 and #5 is: Phone idle, Voice calls, Android OS, Cell standby (not in order, so i took example from several screen shots that I saved)
do you have a terrible signal where you're at? does it jump between LTE (i see you have verizon least based on your image under your name) and 3g alot?

to save power I completely switched over 3G (by turning off 4G (LTE))
on the top of that whenever I can I always switch WiFi on to switch to WiFi instead of 3G and whenever WiFi is not available I always turn it off.
and here is a kicker: I also use Ultimate Juice Defender (w/ pretty aggressive settings (turning data on only every 15 minutes)

Why is my battery "done" ? I blame Sandy as before that it was fine, I'd easily do close to 2h of Screen time (at least 1h30m), now after Sandy due to reception that I'm getting right now I think that's why I'm getting so little now..
Seems like you got it all figured out then.

Man, I'm not from the US, but if Sandy came by my town, i guess my screen on time would be the least of my worries. Lol, can you imagine what damage it may have done (more than likely) to the cell towers and radio equipment?

it's not like Sandy moved in or anything... Sandy is already gone and people (including me) heavily rely on their phones to communicate with others and so am I, so I need my phone more then I did before and if it's dying half way through the day that's a problem for me.

Your awake / screen on ratio looks pretty nutty to me. Basically your phone was awake for 4 hours, and your screen was on for 1 hour. Titaniumbackup kept your phone awake for 38 minutes; why is that?
Sign out of any google services you don't use like Google Talk and / or Google+.
Turn off location services and only turn it on when you need to. It's easy to toggle this by placing a Location services shortcut on your homescreen. This, for me, has had the largest impact on my idle battery usage. With location on, batt would drain around 2 to 3% per hour. Now it takes 3 hours idle to take the battery down 2%.

I think Titanium Backup was doing backup and then uploading it to Dropbox (happens once or twice a week at night)
Google Talk and/or Google+ is closed (and even cleared from recent task upon completion of using them)
location service I use, I'm sharing my location with some other people, but i'll give that a shot to test it.

Hi All,
My Gnex 9250 has a poor battery life, My brother has the same phone and his battery last much longer(with 3g) than mine. Please help.
1130 AM - Battery 100%
1 and half hour Music(Player Pro) - Not much screen activity(with 2G enabled)
2G on for 6 hours, Pretty long texting.
about 45 Minutes of Browsing(2g)
10 Mins on Voice calls.
No Widgets.Background apps = Swiftkey,Go launcher(No theme),Profile scheduler.
By 12am battery was 20%
Screen brigntness is VERY low so its not that, Its about 20%.
Phone is about a month old.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT - 4.1.1(No available updates)
The fact your battery goes over 12hrs seems it's not too bad with moderate use. And who knows if your bro uses his as much as he says? If you want to compare then look at his battery stats in settings next to yours.
Try a different ROM? Kernel?

Thanks for your reply.My brother does use as he said, Ive seen his battery stats, uptime was 1 day 9 hours(14% then). He doesnt text half as much as I do, but his voice calls are much more than mine. Also hes on 3g thats a bigger battery hog than 2g. Not too keen on changing the Kernel/Rom.
Could it be SwiftKey and Go launcher? He doesnt use either of them.
Thanks again.

there are lots of thing that can affect your battery life one of it is the kernel ur using.
I already have this problem before.
i've tried lots of custom rom. the only custom rom that solve this battery issues is from Android Revolution HD 7.0.0
from this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1361348
imo the best battery/performance kernel out there is franco's. try it, battery will be 2x to 3x longer.
if you like to fool around with what's chewing battery you can get better battery stats and it will tell you what keeps your phone from going to sleep. sometimes nothing, sometimes crappy app that messes things up
good luck!
Thanks to all for your replies.
Guess that 12 hours is not bad afterall right? Seems like that from the first reply I got.
Unfortunatly I have no time to re-flash a differnt ROM/Kernel. But thanks for all reccomendations.

You say that your brother doesn't text as much as you but he uses voice calls more. Remember that when you're texting the screen is on and that has a big impact on battery life.
There's not a kernel, ROM, or flying saucer out there that can triple battery life Just saying. People get fanatical about certain ROM/kernel combos. The usual suspects are leaving on things you don't need and on occasion an app. People claim that different things work better on different phones but I think it's a bunch of crap. Much of what you hear is placebo.

Hi guys. Thursday last week I got a Note II, wonderful device. I see people stating that it eats 1% battery in 10-15 minutes, but for me, it eats 1% in 1-3 minutes, when in use. I am running MonxIfied Sent and RedPill 0.10 kernel with stock speed. It consumes very little battery when sleeping, but it is in use that is the problem. I will add some pics of battery usage. What's wrong?

To be honest it seems quite normal. Keep in mind it's a big screen plus if you have mobile data or wifi on then the phone is likely to be doing stuff in the background when the device is awake.
What does the partial wakelocks in better battery stats look like?
EDIT: Eh, never mind, if it consumes very little battery when sleeping it's probably not a wakelock...
There's a pretty steep drop there in the third screenshot, looks strange. Wonder what happened there!

The OP is asking about battery drain when the screen is ON.
Partial wakelocks should be of no concern really, unless his battery was draining fast when screen is off.

From the other thread, your problems do sound a bit different mate
I'm having a little theory. I have also had an iPhone 4, which also had high battery drain. Could the problem be my wifi/router?

Interesting theory. Can't say I know for sure but I guess it's plausable if it has poor signal or drops out often.
Have you tired chaning the channel on it? I do that for my Xbox 360 sometimes if signal is crap.
You could also try flashing a different modem on your Note 2 to see if that improves things. I remember on my old HTC Hero and Desire HD changing the radio (modem) could often improve wifi / mobile data reception and as a result improve battery consumption.
Again, I'm not expert on this so just guessing!
72% with one hour screen on
13% drop when you used recovery
=> after 1 hour screen on 85 percent
=> after 6 hours screen on, 10% battery
=> your phone doesn't have a problem

Mobile data - GSM/WCDMA AUTO
Vibration Haptic Feedback turned off
Brightness Level Auto(lowest)
All Sync Turned off
GPS/Automatic Location off

And I know theres another post that has more views that shows people posting up their battery stats.
What i want is details, not just numbers. Would definitely help a lot of users out there with everyones input.
Once again, Thanks!!
Could help if u switch it to gsm only when u don't need to surf net and 3g only when u need the Internet. It drains battery when it keeps switching

That is pretty nice, but i the first day i got the phone i had like 8,5hours on disolay dunno what was the whole time on battery, notification led on, brightness off (lowest) - this might be the main reason, gps off, always data or wifi on (i need to be connected with the world ) stock 4.1.1
Now i am using auto brightness and i get like 6-7 hours on display, sometimes 8, and everything is the same except that brightness is set to automatic, still i get full day everytime, sometimes even 1,5 day which i hate bcoz charginh in the middle of the day is nasty when you are busy with all the tasks that you get during day. All in all best battery life so far as in device, i just dont get it why somebody wouldnt want this phone with that battery life, if note III will have better life im pretty sure u will survive 2 days with heavy usage
EDIT: sometimes im working with my brother and he has galaxy nexus, we were both playing with the phones during the day and i had 56% left, he had 9% and i had more time on display, he had to charge it 3 times that day, i plugged it when i was going to sleep
I just sold

All of which is useless in the end. My usage habits and app installs will impact battery life differently than yours no matter how "exact" our settings are at an exact moment.
Can we please move beyond this silly notion of some holy grail of configuration? Use your phone! Ignore quadrant scores and whether I get 9hrs and you get 10.5 hrs. Those numbers will never be consistent, nor should they matter. If you're getting 2hrs of battery life, then maybe you have an issue worth solving.
If there were a singular combination that made everything run on platinum and 50000 hrs of screen time, trust me: we would know about it.
I plead to everyone: stop with the quest for "best". It isn't going to happen. Find what's best for you.

Now Iam running Hurricane rom, bloatware I removed immediately, I used kernel mod for better battery performance but I cant get more than 3-4hours of screen time. I dont play any games, just browse the internet, mostly I am connected on wifi, sometimes Facebook or Messenger, nothing more. Please help me. Thanks
Does anyone know if wifi calling being enabled has an effect on battery life one way or the other?

You're welcome bud.
As i am new to the note 4 i wanted to see as well. Usually after i get off work i am hovering around 70% or so. Today i had wifi calling turned on. I have 1.5 hours of work left and i am at 80%. About an hour and a half screen in between news and forums. A couple of phone calls, games and txt. Looks to be an improvement for me! Normal signal is about half the bars at work so not the best or worst signal.
Ok. Dumb question. What is wifi calling for?
A good search on google will tell you everything you're looking for
Yeah. And the same amount time was wasted with your less than helpful response. I would like the opinions of those here.

As i am new to the note 4 i wanted to see as well. Usually after i get off work i am hovering around 70% or so. Today i had wifi calling turned on. I have 1.5 hours of work left and i am at 80%. About an hour and a half screen in between news and forums. A couple of phone calls, games and txt. Looks to be an improvement for me! Normal signal is about half the bars at work so not the best or worst signal.

Good info! Thanks hamagc
I use WiFi calling while I am at work, from 8:30-7:30 at night, still have about 40% of the battery left, I make great battery on WiFi calling. I also didn't do WiFi calling one time at work and the phone died within 6 hours. Noticed that the battery is saved by it not searching for a signal.
