Hello guys! I am a nebie here and i own the gpad.I wanted to ask you about the life of the battery,is it depleted so quickly because of the resolution of the screen or is it a result of poor optimizing on behalf of lg?Will the custom roms and kernels will be able to fix the problem and extend the battery life?Cause if its going to be fixed,it will be one of the best tablets
Thank you in advance
According to the battery usage data that the G pad produces, its pretty much the screen itself that consumes pretty much all of the power.
If that is correct, and I believe it is, there is no fix for it.
The only real thing you can do to extend battery life is turn down the brightness of the screen.

I looked around and didn't see any threads dedicated to this, so I hope it's not a duplicate.
After rooting and doing the ad-hoc wifi patch, the battery life is one of my few remaining complaints about the a100
Some of the reviews that I've read (for other devices that have received a stock ICS update) have mentioned noticeably improved battery life. I was wondering if anybody who's tried out any of the leaked updates has noticed an improvement and if so, you wouldn't mind sharing some stats to give the rest of us an idea of what to expect.
I noticed an improvement in battery life by quite a bit, after upgrading to ICS, but as with a lot of things battery life is subjective. Spend all day gaming and your battery life will take a massive hammering. I don't game a lot on mine but I use it like a laptop and I guess I get a decent day out of it with full brightness and a fair bit of YouTube
There's so,e tweaks to the build.prop on ICS that add some helpings to the battery life, also if you're rooted you can use setCPU etc to lower the screen off CPU freq thus saving battery there

I haven't really noticed any huge difference in battery life when it comes to heavy usage. I get around 4 - 4.5 hours of gaming at medium low brightness. I think with the custom build prop I get more standby time and more battery life for light usage on wifi, however, I find the best way to get the most out of my battery is use airplane mode for gaming and readding.
I noticed battery management changes in general. It seems more efficient at conservation. It also shows you what apps are consuming your battery in settings now.
Thanks for the feedback. Now that I've read that the devs are working on a CM9 release, I'm totally willing to wait to see what goodness they have in store for us!

Does rooting decrease battery life? Just wondering, because I just got my new Kindle Fire. My last one wouldn't charge. I just went to best buy and they gave me a new one. My last one's battery life wasn't too good, and I was just wondering if rooting decreases the battery life. And I mean does it change 7 hours of reading with lowest brightness to 5 hours of reading with the lowest brightness. I mean, it rarely died on me but I was just wondering. I guess that there might be some extra apps running.

I don't see how rooting in itself would adversely affect battery life. All rooting does to the system software is install another binary (su) and an app (Superuser). Neither one is going to affect battery life, so I'm sure there must be some other factors involved.
Rooting your Kindle Fire will allow you to better manage running apps/processes, which will actually IMPROVE your battery life. My biggest tip for saving some juice: if you're not using it, turn it off. This includes apps, the play/kindle store, the backlight, and most of all, WiFi. It just EATS battery.
Also, try not to let your battery get too low. Draining your battery past its reserves will reduce your overall battery life. Hope this helped
Hello.
I was wondering if my battery life is low or not, so I want to know what your battery life is guyz.
My battery would last like 12hs with wifi always on and facebook, some music here and then and youtube. is it a normal consumption ?
There are so many variables that come into play with battery life that is nearly impossible to quantify what sort of battery life someone should be getting. Screen on time, brightness settings, radios used, reception, usage patterns, apps running in the background....tons of things that will be different from person to person. Also, the actual battery itself comes into play with how well it can hold a charge.
As long as you are happy with your battery situation, all is well. If not, perhaps look into what is using your battery. Better Battery Stats can potentially help you narrow down where things on the software end are draining your battery.

That's about what I use to get.
I went out and bought a spare battery. I'm not a fan of extended batteries so I went with a standard battery for about $10.
I also flashed a new kernel that will help on the screen brightness and underclocking.

Hi people!
My problem and the background information:
The LG G3 has a fairly good battery life when using the Stock ROM.
It´s good, but its average! And you know why: the massive screen with its massive resolution is bringing the battery life down and LG didnt managed to put a battery saving screen in the G3 (in comparison to e.g. Samsung Galaxy Note4)
But on the other hand LG included their A3 technique, wich should increase battery life, by downclocking and reducing the frame rate when not watching videos or playing games.
BUT if you use a Custom ROM, there is no A3 technique included that increases battery life.
Therefore I think the battery life on Custom ROMs isn't that good?? Or am I wrong with this??
So here's my question:
Did somebody tested the battery life on a custom ROM with the LG G3?
And whats your screen-on time over a day or a certain time?
(Because the framerate should be on 60 Hz therefore it should be a really worse battery life on Custom ROMs.)
Sorry for my bad english and thank you for answering my question

Hi, i think of getting a used Galaxy Nexus and i want to ask you how is the battery life, screen time etc. Thanks!
Biggest issue w/GN is it's first gen OLED Screen which sucks at 2-3h's.
Otherwise battery standby life is <1%=1h
