ok so i watched another video about someone else saying he got 29 hours of power on a charge. im still getting about 8 with heavy usage. not rooted yet. is this normal battery life? screen is on 3/4 wifi is always off as is gps.
Wifi uses less power than 3g. 8hrs of screen on time is reasonable at stock imho.

With avg use, and counting that I do sleep 8hrs/day... I have 2 li-ion poly batteries & never tether to a wall... I generally get 24hrs, with about 10% or more remaining. I swap, read a book, until I am sleepy, go to sleep. The battery usually is about 95-97% when I wake up.

I don't think the op said that he/ahe is getting 8 hours of screen time. I think it's 8 hours total and if that's true then that's pretty bad battery life.
Something seems wrong

I have had the phone for a month now and have yet to kill it in under 24 hours (ok fine I got it to die in 23 hours and 36 minutes). I usually get about 1 day and 6 Hours. Of course, I am sleeping for a good portion of that... Typical screen use time is about 3 hours for me (inside that 24 hour phone use time) but I have done as much as 5 Hours of screen time. Im assuming that you could kill the phone faster if you really tried, but i have a hard time believing it would die in 8 hours unless you were doing everything you could to kill it..
ok thank you guys can i ask are you all roooted? im still on the fence about rooting this phone like i have my others. can not being rooted effect battery?

I'm rooted, running UltraLight1.5 with Perseus kernel. Rooting aside a big battery killer is the wireless network locater in Settings/Location Services. That stupid service kills battery with thousands of pointless kernel wakelocks. I used to disable Maps entirely, but that ain't needed.
I leave GPS &WIFI on all the time with screen brightness on auto, power saving turned on on the screen and cpu. 8hrs of screen on time easy...overnight at idle there's minimal eating of battery while I sleep.

my brother got 2 days and 8 hours. he uses wifi when at home. not sure about work. he has a live wallpaper. he is stock rooted.
Obviously heavy usage is relative. I definitely get over 24 hours worth normal use. I'm pretty much on it constantly. I would imagine if you are gaming or watching videos then your battery is going to die much quicker.

Being rooted doesn't give better battery life is just an access for to things you couldn't unlock before like admin rights.
However if you freeze a few apps you don't use and close any apps after your done with them you'll get better results.

Im pretty sure those ppl who get 2 days on their phone barely use this device as far as watching videos, games, n etc. ive seen those screenshots and barely or never is video or gaming usage seen. What's the point in having this beast if not being used but left idle so the honor of the longest lasting battery is displayed for the world to see. Lol smh. Btw 8 to 10hrs for me heavy usage..

With 27% left, I'd say that's about average-good.
Dear God, I get about 8 hours with average usage. Seems very good life to me. Do you have power saver and/or sync enabled?

Battery life good bro, cool story

Mine's absolutely horrid, I can't for the life of me figure out what the hell's wrong with it. I'll run out of battery after about 12 hours, with the screen time at 1 hour and maybe 30 minutes if I'm lucky? The phone drinks away my battery in standby mode like a former alcoholic united with an opened beer. When I was on ICS, turning off 4G every time the screen was off with the AutomateIt app would give me excellent battery life. Ever since Jelly Bean, it doesn't seem to make a difference. I just don't even bother using AutomateIt anymore, I even uninstalled it. Useless. I check marked the option, "Restrict Background Data," but I actually had worse results with that on even. Following the thread about the Guide to good battery life, I turned off auto-sync. The only thing that seems to do for me is not get my emails in real time. No effect on the battery though. I'm guessing the battery drain has something to do with being on data (even though turning it off doesn't seem to do much) because everytime I go to school where there's little WiFi, battery's worse. Also, somehow my Messaging app takes up more battery than the screen. What's with that? I'll text every now and then, but it shouldn't eat away my battery like a fat man with the last batch of Twinkies. Enough with the dumb similes, haha, but I actually need help with this. I really don't wanna buy a battery off eBay cause the damn people are too lazy to send you the battery until a month passes, and I hate charging in the middle of the day.
I'm on 100% stock. I used to root and mess around with a ton of ROMs, but then I realized all my favourite ROMs were the ones closest to stock...
.... look at the eBay expected arrival and/or look for a seller in the USA ?
Anyway, that bit aside - have you installed something like BetterBatteryStats to be able to see what the problem is so you can fix it ?

5 hours... how !?
Easy !
I'm on stock and if I'm almost all the day on WIFI, not playing too much games, and with auto-brightness,
I can get 5 to 6 hours screen time.
(but on 4G all the day, it's more around 3 hours screen time)
This is what most people get with normal use around 14 to 16 hours and 4 to 5 hours screen time. I think the biggest issue is that 4G radio that most people have on all the time. I I have wifi everywhere so most of the time I have mine off that helps a ton. Plus all the sync stuff off, I get about 6 hours over 17 hours battery life and about 30 to 40% brightness.

14-16 is what was normal for me when I first got my GS3 (after JB update). If you want more battery life, I recommend trying juice defender (custom settings for data off while locked). If you have stretches where you don't use your phone it works really well. Just thought I would throw that out there.

What sort of battery life are you all seeing with this years note? come from the ipad 3 where i usually saw 10-11 hours screen time and 2-3d standby, today is the first time ive had it from 100% and i only lasted 6 hours screentime with 7 hours overall on time, i still havent run it down completely yet but surely i should be getting more than this?
Its such a shame because i love it so much, but i cant deal with this short battery life
It's much better than that. I found it better after a couple of charges. I rooted mine and deleted or froze b.oatware and I get 13 hours heavy use

I came from an ipad 3 as well and had the same problem until I disabled several apps, turned off GPS, etc and over the long weekend I was getting ~12 hours of web surfing.
I haven't rooted yet so that should be a number that can improve. I'm sorta trying to wait for a root that doesn't trip knox. I don't want a custom rom so no reason to install a bootloader and lose my warranty if I can be patient. Tried Cydia Impactor but I had already upgraded to MK1. I'm wondering if the shipping rom (P600XXUAMIE) might have the 4.3 vulnerabilities unpatched.

I thought it was more, but looking at the list.. go to settings, General, Application Manager, select the prinstalled apps you don't want running all the time and click Turn Off. I've turned off BlurbCheckout, Businessweek+, NYTimes, Polaris Office, Screen Saver and Twitter. I think more important was turning off GPS, Screen Rotation, Bluetooth, Reading Mode, Smart Stay, Smart Pause, Smart Scroll, Auto Brightness then adjusting the screen brightness to something a bit less retina searing than the default.

I've had mine since Saturday soooo, 5 days now. I get easily 10-11 hours of screen time. I loose about 1% per 8-9 hours in stand by and i loose about 9% per hour of video streaming from either my Netflix, HBO GO, or Slingbox account and that's with brightness about or just above 50%. I'm also NOT rooted yet. Totally stock with just certain apps turned off and i restrict a lot of the background data on individual apps that i don't need running background data
Have you guys try using this damn thing at 100% while indoors? It hurts the eyes with a white screen.

Hmm, I think I misspoke about the background data on this tablet. I do that religious with my phones (Bionic, GS4) but I went to look at what i did and there is no option to turn off background data. I would normally go to settings>data usage and tap whatever app and the check "restrict background data". I must have thought I did that on this tablet but obviously not.
i think the battery life is great on my tablet - i dont game with it - today it has been running for 13 hours 48 minutes with 5 hours and 48 minutes of screen on time and battery is at 52% - not rooted yet - i have everything i dont use turned off ( ie. smart stay/scroll, air view ) and running nova laucher prime and dont use power savings mode
Face it - it's nowhere near ipads. That's my biggest concern.

I dunno, doing pretty good over here. Rooted, but have no froze anything. Only rooted to get gameCIH installed screen is between 25% and 50% brightness depending on what im doing or where i am. I mostly just use it for playing a few games here and there, taking notes during lectures.. etc. This is about typical, sometimes I get a little less, screen brightness seems to play a huge role in battery drain (obviously) but ive never run it dead during the day.. ever. I start every day with 100% charge and dont usually plug it in till I go to bed. If I have a charger around and im not doing anything ill plug it in (I mean.. why not) but I don't ever have to "worry" about it going dead on me.
I'm currently on 9 hours of battery time, probably at least 4-5 hours of that is screen on time reading comics or doing sketchbook pro pictures.
Battery is on 46%.
So yeh, battery is fine. Brightness is about 30%.

Right... It's better then an IPad. I doubt the IPads beat 11-12 hours of screen time at roughly 50% brightness and an IPad has a smaller screen and less pixels to power.

Do I have to charge the device fully before turning on like some cell phones are?! or I can just start using it right away?!
and what kind of battery it does?! how's the charging process?! should I wait for it to be fully discharged, and then charge it to 100 percent?! or should I keep it between 40 to 80 percent to save the battery life...

Dude, just turn it on and use it. The days of cycling a batter (let it drain and then charge to full) were over in the 90's with Ni-Cad batteries.. these do not develop a memory. From dead, the tab will take 5-6 hours to charge with supplied charger and in the wall. Using it while charging will still cause it to lose battery but a a much slower rate.
Hey guys,
I've had my Moto 360 since Sunday evening and have been getting to grips with the device for the past few days.. I have one big problem though :/ Before buying the watch I saw EVERY review there was to see and read EVERY article there was to read to have the widest opinion about it since I would have to order it without seeing it in person. I decided to pull the trigger and buy it... It was a bit smaller and taller than I initially thought, but I like Android Wear, don't mind the lag (even though I do notice it) but the battery has shocked me a bit tbh. Everyone said that a full 12 hour day with ambient mode off is no problem and after the update it should be even better. I don't get nearly at all this batterylife. I took it off the charger today at 7:15, haven't used it as much as I wanted to at all just to see if the batterylife is acceptable and now at 4:25 ( a bit over 7 hours later) I'm at 21%. I even formated the battery prior to this( drained it completely and charged it up completely 3 times) and will do again today. I reseted the watch AND my phone yesterday so I can't tell if it helped or not. I am running software version 4.4W.1 build number KGW42R. Any ideas ? I only installed pixtocam. :crying: What are your findings with the batterylife? Thnx
Edit: added build number
Oh and two last things: 1. Have been using with my Galaxy Nexus two days and since then with my Sony Z1 and 2. the watch takes longer to charge aswell I've noticed It takes cca 1 hour and 25 minutes to get to 100%
LAST EDIT: Down 14% in an hour and about 20 minutes.
I've been getting literally about 24 hours on one charge with the minimal watch face, and no ambient light (auto dimming on) there seems to be a correlation between watch faces and battery life. A basic face gives you more life compared to a face with many dials and info. This was only achieved after the last update. Before that I was getting about 13 hours.

I am getting awesome battery life out of my unit. It's currently been off the charger for 19 1/2 hours and I'm at 57%. I'm also on the same build/software version as you
I get close to 30hrs with ambient off and 15 with ambient on. I'm thinking you might want to exchange for a different one. Unless its pixtocam. Did you reset the device and install no apps for a few days?
I've only had it since Sunday so I'm going to try that today and see what I get :/ But replacing it would be a real pain I'm the a** since I'm studying abroad

Not pleased with 9 hour battery life
Ok, there is much variation here. I've had this for 3 days, charged to 100%...and after a 30 min commute, I'm at 75%.
I ride a motorcycle...is it possible the fitness sensor is going crazy? I had 3800 steps regsitered.
So today I turned the watch OFF and only turned it on after getting to work. It was charged to 100% before I left and it was 97% after 30 minutes...OFF! Today, after 9 hours I was down to 18% battery...I swiped maybe 10 cards, and checked the time maybe 20 times all day...no apps have been loaded other than default setup. It's build #KGW42R, ambient screen is OFF, watch face is MINIMAL.
I basically have to turn it off in the afternoon at work, otherwise it will go to 0%. I'm online now to find a charger I can keep at work.
Was expecting better...
Yeah man that sounds exactly like my situation! Apart from the fact I don't ride a bike lol Anyway I'm down 6% in an hour and a few minutes with basically zero use and about 10 time checks :/ it dies after about 8 and a half hours Thus being miles away from " all day battery life"

hey all, recently my g3 has gotten terrible battery life, when it would usually take me through most of the day, it now only gives me like MAYBE 12 hours with less than 2 screen on time. today, i pulled it off the charger at 1230, by 4 it was down to 54%, and after 8 1/2 hours of sitting(i was at work) it was down to 15% and then it was dead less than an hour later. i'm unrooted(was rooted) and on the latest ota, i've done a factory data reset, re-rooted and unrooted and another factory data reset. it's just weird to me because about two weeks ago my husband's g-flex wouldn't hold the data connection, dropping in consistently for two weeks(bad enough that t-mobile sent him a replacement unit, and eventually put him in a note 3) and all the sudden my battery life went from decent, to complete crap.
You are having some major wake locks. Check your apps for "kept awake ". Usually Android os has a big number but dont worry about it. Here are my battery stats for reference.

23 hours and still at 77%???? Is that with phone just sitting not in use in stand by?
Sent from my LG-D851 using XDA Free mobile app
Here is mine. Bluetooth is on from the time I unplug till I plug it in at night going to bed. Wifi is off during the day, so I'm on 4G LTE till I get home and turn data off and wifi on. So wifi is on for about 6-8 hours a day. I always typically keep sync off. Ill turn it on a few tomes throughout the day for a few mins to pull any emails and what-not, than I turn it right back off. It drains a lot of battery on mine just talking with apps trying to pull data from them constantly.
Location is also usually off until I need it. Today I had it on all day.
My screen brightness when I'm away from home is usually anywhere from say 60-95%. I HATE auto-brightness, just keeps it way to dark.
I also use greenify, and I have clean master auto clear memory upon screen off. So when I turn screen off, all apps I selected hibernate via greenify, and memory clears with clean master.
I'm also using trickster mod, and have a few kernel tweaks to smooth out the notorious G3 stutter which was from a thread on here. Lag solutions I think(ill grab link in a min) via Heisenberg's settings. Very stable and runs like a champ!
I am using g3 tweakbox, nothing fancy going on though or crazy.
Also, I do have seeder, which I was using before the trickster kernel tweaks, and it was working great, but I'm trying the trickster settings for now.
I HIGHLY recommend using the trickster mod kernel settings heisenberg suggested in his his thread. They are extremely stable, it makes phone snappy and very smooth, and I swear it made my battery life much better! Give it a shot, I swear you'll love it.
Here is lag solutions thread, 1st post is the kernel tweaks I use w/ trickster mod. It did help battery. Give it a shot, if it doesn't help you, or makes things for(which it wont, its very stable) you can always undo them just as fast and easy. Do all of them though, and do exactly, don't change numbers yet(if you're very comfy with it and do k is what you're doing with it), just give those a shot.

didn't even think to check it...you'd have thought that would have been my first instinct with the issues my husband was having with his g-flex...but, battery life was my only issue with the phone, and it's up to where i'm content with it now, but in answer to your question -87dbm
Ok so I did a "test". I had bad signal- 1 bar 4g and it would hop to 2g quite often. In about 2h i drained 70% battery with tune in radio and the screen turned off. I couldnt screenshot it because my phone died :banghead:
My guess is that if you are working somewhere with crapy signal and you have push notifications coming in often it would kill your battery.
