I use wifi quite a lot, My back up lasts only around 12 hours, I have posted the screenshot for the battery usage statistics!
Please check it and let me know if it is supposed to be like this!

Undervolting/overclocking does affect the life of your CPU so don't overclock or undervolt for longer times, only when you need...and 1000 mhz is stable at 52 vsel so try that.
Keep a note on how long you actually use Defy (calls, music, video, games, anything screen on) before it ran out of battery. It's pretty good if you got 6 or 7 hours. Isn't it? A laptop could finish in 2 or 3 hours unplugged.

IMO, if the battery lasts less than 1 day with normal usage, that would be inacceptable.

you should check how much battery drains during the night to see if there's
some problem with idle
use motocharge and post whats the percentage used during night
galaxy s3 / exajoule rom / underclocked at 1ghz
i use cpusleepr, android assistant and rom toolbox apps
also flashed snapdragon cpu editor and have it in powersave mode
unplugged phone around 10pm at 100 % left it alone til 6 am
phone was now only at 97 % !!!
used phone for a little but saw it drain fast
so i basically left it alone during work
so end of day comes i got 2 1/2 hrs screen and about 17 hours total on battery
screenshots attatched - dead trigger only had 27 min and poweramp only had 10

It doesn't make a huge difference what CPU editors you use, the screen is always going to be the biggest drain on the battery. Also, a 3% drop when you were sleeping from 10-6 is good enough.
Games like Dead Trigger will destroy your battery because not only are you using the screen, you are taxing the CPU/GPU as well. All in all your screen on time could be a little bit better, but considering you played at least half an hour of Dead Trigger and listened to music it isn't the worst thing in the world.
Hi all. I bought an Xperia S and I'm very satisfied But I have a big problem : battery drain! I disabled autosync, bravia engine, underclocked cpu to 1188 mhz, set the screen brightness to around 25 %. I use an app which is similar to Juice defender, and it sync my push notification every 15 minutes for 2 minutes. I flashed [email protected] Rom, but the battery drains too fast.. even if I set the phone to drain not too fast. What can I do ? Are there mods or some scripts which can help my battery to last longer? I don't want to unlock the bootloader because of the warranty. What can I do more than what I did ?
Follow these steps:
1. Use your battery to 0%
2. Charge it to 100%
3. Go to CWM > Advance
4. Wipe Battery Stats.
5. Fix Permissions (This may take sometimes).
6. Again use your battery to 0%
7. Again charge it to 100%

I Don t think my phone need a calibration, but I will try
thanks for the tip, my battery seems to drain faster after installing a custom rom, seems that it needs a recalibration again
Google devs said that battery recalibration does absolutely nothing to increase battery life. XDA has some write up about it on a topic about placebo rituals.
What I noticed in the beginning, the battery drains faster, but as you drain all the way and recharge it lasts longer with more use.

I hope.. because if I use it for 15 minutes in wi fi, with brightness at 20 %, i lose 5 % of battery..
I noticed also that if I leave my phone in flight mode, cpu spy reveal 97 % of deep sleep, and that's good, but my phone in 7 hours ( during night ) lost a 5 % of battery

I'm in my first week of owning the device and it's gotten a lot better. First two days it was like that. If it doesn't get better try contacting Sony and maybe getting it exchanged.

WT* in 2 hours, 10 of wi fi browsing, 15 of maps navigator, a call of 5 minutes, an sms, a chat of 2 minutes on facebook, and it drained 25 %! I want to throw my xperia s away! I'm very disappointed! Sony lost a fun.. I will return to a samsung phone as soon as possible.. My galaxy wonder last 18 hours with CM10, using it the same as xperia s ! F*ck!
You know Xperia S is dual core and has a 720p screen, right?
Second, there must be an background app killing your battery. Check all of them.
Also, Bravia Engine doesn't kill battery, unless you stay on Album app the whole time.

I know, but the battery is ****ing ridicolous, isn't it ? Second, there isn't any app which drain my battery. I checked it with cpu spy and betterbatterystats. I deactivated BE because sometimes I view some photos.

The time you spent on gallery viewing some photos isn't enough.
Besides, then your phone must have some problem. Of course it will drain, but it can be really good.
Are you sure there isn't any app draining battery?

Yes.. I'm sure.. I list all of user apps : 100 Doors, Androidiani app, antutu benchmark, asphalt 7, astro file manager, chrome, cpu spy, dead trigger, doodle jump, where's my perry, facebook, fruit ninja, 3g manager (like juice defender), impossible game, jetpack joyride, link2sd, live score addicts, no frills cpu control, quadrant, temple run, whatsapp.. That's it..
Don't know why it drains like that.. I don't want a galaxy W battery life, because they are 2 differents phone, but at least 13-14 hours with a moderate usage.. I can't ever rechearge it after school and during the night..
Timescape is still there? Or sync is on all the time (orv you mentioned a timed sync, didnt you? If yes, how much time to time?)
It's really strange. There are days it lasts the whole day for me.
I usually (not now I'm in vacations, but in normal school days) can use it for the whole day.
Take from the charger at 6:30, WiFi on for 10 minutes to check a few quick things (it auto turns on before, but it is generally on charger still). Then, 15 to 20 minutes of Music on headphones, volume at 6 or so). Some seconds on maybe to change songs.
Then a total of around 20 minutes with the screen on, be it just moving home screens while not having nothing to do, or taking notes, calendar, etc. Maybe 5 minutes of camera. The rest, the phone rests on the table ( I think the cold air conditioned keeps the processor and battery at lower temperatures, so better for speed and draining).
More 15 minutes of songs, same behave as before.
At lunch, I might use it for 2 quick calls (2 min each). More around 20 or 30 min of music, and 15 min of gaming (3D or 2D). Maybe more 5 min of camera. Some days, 15 min of WiFi.
Class again, same behave after leaving home. Notes, camera, calendar, useless scrolling.
I would leave school (5:30 PM) with around 35~40% of battery, enough for more 45 min of WiFi before the battery got to a critical level (5~10%).

3g is off when my screen is off and 3g manager switch data on every 15 minutes for 2 minutes.. Automatic sync is off, and I removed Timescape and all Sony rubbish..
i want to buy a note 10.1 2014 but i have concerns about its battery life , i don`t know this is real or not but i heard it drain 10-20% in 8 hours of stand by , i have an ipad mini 1 and i get as it shown in image
my Q is can i get the same battery life with the note 10.1 2014 as my ipad mini 1 or not , plz confirm that because this issue will be a deal breaker for me

this tablet has a powerful screen.. and pressure sensore.
i am using this tablet for more than 1 year and its really awesome. when the screen is on the device uses more battery and its normal.
but when it is on sleep it can use the battery more than 2 days... 3220 mAh is very powerful battery for this tablet.
with CM 12 (Android 5) it will be best tablet i have seen and used.
I get 11hrs screen time from 100% to 1%. This includes a LOT of youtube videos however my brightness is pretty low. Standby time is good for me and nowhere near 10% a day let alone 8hrs. I reckon its about 3-5% a day for me max.

Do you use the stock firmware or a custom rom , because i am already purchased the tablet couple days ago and i am never have 11 hours screen on time yet
Till now i am get 6-7 hours screen on time in 2 days after unplugg from 100% to 15%, is that the normal ratio ?
Stand by and useage, seem pretty ill defined parameters. Especially to compare android to apple battery use. Does standby mean total on time, or total on time minus screen on, or total on time minus certain heavy use operations(which prob also includes screen on time)? Do you know purely screen on time for your ipad mini? That might be the best, first comparison to the note 10.1 ( since note does have a big screen but also big battery-8220 mah) that would be useful number wise.
Im not going to try but it would be interesting to know how long note 10.1 lasts in sleep mode only. I use mine to much to test only that. So ill see if I have any screens of my useage that I have made(prob now deleted), but I will also test to see how long I get with my average use next charge cycle (reported in screen on vs total up time).
Also if its is 10% in 8hrs (standby/sleep) thats still 80 hrs or over 3days. At the worst you say 20%,thats 40 hrs, a little less than 2 days. If those are true indicative number for the note 10.1 that represent a decent number of average users then your experience should fall somewhere in between, making it close to your experience with your ipad.

in ipad standby time means the time since you unplugged your device including running and sleeping time , usage time means the time ipad actually running = screen on time on android
i don not know if 6-7 hours of screen on time on my new note will be persistent or it will increase to 10-11 hours like the fellow up there after the rush period of usage of the the new device , anyway i will be very satisfied if it reach 9 hours :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Ok makes sense. Normally I use my note 10.1 without always fully charging and always turn it off at night. Ive tested by fully charging and leaving it on at night, so that it is in sleep/standby then. Last night I put it away with 29% battery and over 10hrs later it was on 28%. :victory: See screen shots. You can't actually read 10 hours, but if you look at total uptime and see how flat the battery curve is for half of that time you can tell I'm being very reasonably accurate. My screen use is 5hrs (screenshot) and that is what really took most of my juice. I was mostly watching 1080p youtube.
Almost the same here , hope for two or more hours after lollipop update inshaallah
Mine is the same about 1-2% if left on standby
Id suggest flashing a custom rom with a custom kernel. They figured out how to get 0.5-2% on stand by. Its alot of the bloatware that comes with the tablet and background apps which are running. Google apps also have a heavy drain on the battery during stand by. Using an app like Titanium back up to freeze or uninstall the apps will help with this problem.
Hello everyone
I just purchased 256g 12gb ram snap 855 note 10 plus last month. But after the android 10 update my phone seems to have a bad battery life.
Its like 50 mins screen time and battery is at 82 percent.
Brightness is 50%ish fhd+ nothing in background only usual apps.
It seems.like going down by %1 every 2 or 4 minutes. I watched alot of reviews and it was not going down so fast.
Id Be glad if experienced people helps out. Im thinking to replace this.
I watched a lot of reviews too.
Unplugging the phone makes it loose like 3-4% in 2 minutes. Then i think with a common use you can get 1hr of SOT every 25%-30% with some basic tweaks.
I think the reviews are based on a battery starting from 100 to 0% without pausing the screen. You can get 10-11%/hr while the screen is on, which is pretty good depending of what you're doing.

Thanks for the reply,
Well people talk about having 8-10 hours of SOT so, this concerned me like hell. when i click battery options, it shows me that still learning patterns tho. Could it be as if it's just updated to Android 10?
Something is definitely wrong. You might want to factory reset it, and start from scratch. Hopefully that resolves it.

Dont be stupid believing sot of 8-10 hrs.... Those video showing coz they never lock the screen. Normal user will turn on off the screen.. hence eventually will use more juice. If a phone can last u 6 hrs... U be more happy...
