[Q] How long does your battery last?

How does your battery last with continuous use(apps surfing)? Mine lasts about 2-2.5 hours. Is that about right?

That's horrible xD with continuous use I get like 5 hours if I use it to just send texts and surf the web a little and make a few calls I get 20 hours

Yeah.. i can do quite a bit of gaming, chatting, surfing, downloading and at the very worst i get 5 hours out of it

With continuous surfing, I get about 2.5 hrs from my nook color too. Runs Nightly 35, dalingrin's OC kernel @ 1.1GHz. Been noticing battery life decreasing since nightly 29 or around when madcat released his kernel with the video fix. (not putting the blame on either, just using as a reference point in time)
When I check batt stats, it says the display is 80% of the power consumption. I have brightness down to whatever CM7 default is (about 33% I think) so I dunno what's up with that...
Oh well, it's not like I can remember what stock was like anyhow, so I don't have anything to make me feel bad

About 4 hours of continuous movies.
About 5 hours surfing.
About 6 playing games with wifi off.
Standby is days.

someone explain sod and what we should expect in cm7 vs froyo, please. i'm going to bed.

I charge mine ~every 2 nights.
I use it 2-3 hours a day. Mostly browsing internet/flash.

I got used to using Setting Profiles Lite in stock Eclair, so I gave it a shot here.. I really don't need the wifi on all the time, so I set it up the way I did before, when the screen goes off, so does wifi. Screen on, wifi back on.
Battery is about .8%/hr, CM7 RC4.

Horrible battery life

Hi,
as I got the phone I already had bad battery life, so I made a factory reset, maybe it helps. It didn't, 1 hour of playing(not even 3d game) ate 40% of my battery, on 2g network and 40% display brightness.
I decided to put on the EURO open(jun 25) and root the phone. I uninstalled a couple of system apps(car home, unused apps, etc), and also put on minfreemanager on agressive settings(to kill background apps consuming battery).
It helped absolutely nothing. I disconnected the phone from the charger in the morning around 6am, and by now with approx 20 minutes of gaming, downloading it's only 75% left.
I also discharged my battery 2 times to 0%, and turned on repeatedly to kill the battery, and once recharged while it was on, once recharged while it was off. Helped also nothing.
some info if needed:
baseband: 1035.21_20110725
kernel: 2.6.32.9
build: FRG83G
LGE ver: LGP990-V10d
Please help, it would be such a good phone without this battery issue ((((((((

Install juicedefender

I installed it in the stock one, but it didn't help.
As I see I have problem when the phone is active, and I do something with it.
When my phone is sleeping it seems okay tho.
I played stupid zombies for 10 minutes just now, and it went down from 70% to 65%. This means every hour battery dies 30% which is actually 10% better then yesterday with the stock rom before this open EURO. It still is pathetic, that you can only play 3.3 hours and your battery is dead
My SGS was able to hold on at least until 5 hours with heavy usage.

I don't know guys my phone can last for 3 days only using for phone calls. Watching 2 hours of youtube can last 2 days.
Maybe because i don't use any Internet via mobile network.
I don't use task killers. After reading this http://lifehacker.com/5650894/andro...ed-what-they-do-and-why-you-shouldnt-use-them
I always charge the phone when the battery goes to 0%.
Autobrightness is always on.
Always use 2G networks and Data is disabled.
Useing Modaco Fear edition 12.6.
with baseband 622.
with TW Launcher.
5 Homescreens full of widgets.
and useing Watchdog Task Manager for monitoring what app uses cpu most.
So im very happy with my phone with heavy use i can still manage 24 Hours (Browsing, playing, Youtube). And maybe 6-7 hours of max usage.

I had about 5 hours of battery life on idle when I first got the phone brand new. I'm getting about 40 hours on idle now with Fear 12.6. I'm still testing whether underclocking cpu while idle will improve battery performance. But i dont use any app-killer and do NOT use JuiceDefender, it doesnt work well with this phone. Havent updated baseband, using stock _20110405, make sure you have matching RIL to baseband, so dont simply update baseband.

Try cronos Tom, it has been optimized battery driver, I've just bought brand new 2x 2 days back, my battery was lasting hardly whole day with 2-3 hour wifi usage then i read somewhere its a known issue with with 2x, not same like ur case, then I try various roms the only rom that gave me longest battery life on my phone is cronies mod, try it

Battery issues

Hi,
I've been experiencing a lot of problems with my battery since I bought my lg o2x. I've tried about everything to reduce battery drainage but nothing is working. I tried using lowest brightness, bought a new battery, never got gps/bluetooth on also there aren't any apps on except system things, but still my battery won't last longer then about 3h active usage and about 6-8h moderate usage. Can someone help me because its getting quite annoying having to recharge two times a day...
I also tried different roms and kernels but that didn't make any difference either. Currently running Django Manouche v1.2 ext 4 OC

sigh i got to buy another battery

same thing happened to me, until i wiped the battery stats... hope it helps

[Q] What is acceptable 'up time' for the Note?

I've had the Note through GB, ICS Stunner and now official ICS rom....
Stunner was definitely better for battery than the official ICS rom.
I unplug my phone at 6.30am and put it to charge every night around midnight, with battery usually nagging me to charge it - about 10% or so...
My question is that normal? I use my phone normally, the odd facebook and twitter time, a bit of note taking, internet etc...
is 17/18 hours as good as it's going to get?!

yes 18 hours is good, consider the size of the screen etc and how you use it

Mine dies in 9 hours with Wi-Fi on and Auto Sync on. Is that normal?

I would say yes. WI-Fi on means constant power consumption. Auto Sync on means even more power consumption. Wy do you leave them on? You can synch when you need to and switch Wi-Fi on when it's necessary.

Mine is always on wifi and last about 2 days... ^^''

Stunner averages at 16-17 hours, and most people get 17-18 hours if you look at the stunner thread. The best battery life was on stock GB though, 40+ hours for me (light use)

I would think so too with GB...thats what I'm currently running. =)

Measuring total uptime (from charge to charge) doesn't make much sense IMO,
because we all have different usage habits.
Screen on time, however, is a different story.
Anything less than 4 hours of screen on time is bad in my book.

I'm running the german ICS now and after a few tweaks (autokiller) .. i get 2 days of power :d thats with wifi off at work and at Night .. an hour of playing games.. half an hour of voice Calls and some music listening + web browsing. I'm a happy man
@chasmodo: i do listen to music lots with the screen off so screentime is not an absolute measurement of usage either ...
Cpu states However is a very good representation of usage .. minutes 1400mhz..200mhz..Deep sleep ...

Im using LPY rom and for me thet battery time has actually improved compared to official GB. I keep wifi on 24/7 and 2g mode / powers saving, gps off, so on avarage use of around 8h daily, i get more than 24h in one charge.

Yeah since I've done the flight mode and battery pull my up time is amazing! Been on 9 hours now and lost 30% of charge. Very happy with it..

17 hrs so far and battery at 65%. Auto sync, wifi, gps, BT on. Too lazy to turn that stuff off.
Nothing special just stock ICS.

i can only get 16-20h tops... with texting, some calls, gaming and wifi :/ but i've only made 4 charges to the battery yet, so hope that life time will grow up.
using it for about 10h now, and bat @ 55% runing 4.0.3 german ICS

I get more than a day with moderate use. Lots of wifi, FB, a bit of browsing and gaming, some music, a lot of texting and whatsapp, a few calls and just playing around scrolling between homescreens and stuff. Pretty good to me!
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA

I find I get on average 16-20 hrs with good use. It really depends on the screen on time as it sucks up most of the power. White especially uses up the most power on these screens. When I check battery stats I usually average about 3-4 hours of screen on time and most of that is web browsing and checking email. Your mileage may vary if you've got background processes
At idle, I lose about 1% per hour (sometimes less if i disable wifi/data/gps/sync). So theoretically I could get over 4 days in idle. With the display on constantly I would guess it would use 15-20% per hour. If you're playing a cpu intensive 3d game you can probably double that or more!
I found cpuspy really helpful in diagnosing battery issues. I was suffering from the deep sleep problem when I moved to ICS LPY (the sounds off/airplane mode/reboot fixed it). The cpu never went to sleep so was eating up at least 5-8% per hour. It might not sound much but if I forgot to recharge the phone at night I would end up with a dead phone in the morning!

Those are still good numbers but from those pics your posted, where the graph goes up it looks like it was charged partially at least twice. Connecting it to any usb will charge it. The battery hours display only resets when it has been fully charged.

Over 24 hours

Optimux2X battery life with ICS

In threads in the Optimus2X development forum I often see posts that praise the battery life using new ROMs or basebands or RILs. The numbers always surprise me and make me jealous. I have read about some guy whose phone loses about 3% battery during the night, or some other guy who still had 75% battery left after 7h of 'normal' usage.
Today, I unplugged my phone from the charger at ten in the morning and 3 hours later, I had 80% battery left, with the phone only resting in my pocket in standby. Now, about 8 hours unplugged from the charger and less than normal use (15 min browsing, one GPS localization, two SMS sent) I am 25% battery.
I have disabled WiFi, decreased display brightness to the lowest value, always disable GPS & bluetooth unless I need it (which is very rare).
I am currently on owain's CM9 build 62, baseband 313 and RIL 218. I have also tried BB 725/RIL 725 (which caused big problems) and BB 420 / RIL 1120. Both did not give me a noticeable longer battery life.
Whats up with my phone or battery? How can I extend my battery life to the numbers said in the beginning?

battery
buy a bigger battery
i have a 3500mAH battery
more then 2 day on 1 charge
look on dealextreme

12 hours 30 mins, with 25% battery left
Over locked to 1.4ghz
Screen on 2 hrs
Calling 2 hrs
So yeah , I guess its pretty heavy use...
It also goes alright (;

i would say something is definitely wrong with your phone, rom or kernel. i use my phone even to play, games like dead space and more, and my battery always lasts for 1 day at least, also oc'd to 1.4 ghz.

I had the same prob, But I solved it,
now my phone survives a full day with normal usage.
Receiving/sending mails tweets facebook post G+ browsing the web etc.
try to drain your battery until your phone shuts down by itself
then fully recharge it after that unplug it and start it up again,
I hope it helps it did so for me.
