1- i heard alot about battery problem and drain so fast..so is it right or just normal like all rest of android phones (need some one use diff. phones) ??
2- is there any other general problems in this mobile ??
thank U in advance
1) battery problems isnt phone specific, if you decide to use it just as a phone some users have reported 6 days on a single charge with minimal internet/ screen on usage
2) only main problems with this phone (to me) is LG software support..... but thats really a non issue what with the wonderful roms our devs/chefs have for our device
large display will be always drain battery. there are no problems with the phone but sometimes are errors in the various roms

I'll say that it does drain quite fast, but I don't think it's because of the display, but rather the signal and CPU! Optimus Black's NOVA Display uses less battery than normal LCDs.
Here's the battery usage for 2d 13hours:

I had a Motorola Defy and the battery was soo good, I loved it...!
However I agree that optimizing your use by few tricks will help to keep the battery good.
You can use Profile Scheduler for example. It can control brightness, Wi-fi, apps, ringtone, signal, etc at different schedules! Quite handy at night (I use airplane mode, and not even 1% lost for 8 hours!)
Battery does drain fast, so I took it to the service centre and they repalced the battery.
Did make a differecence.
1.the battery on my OB with froyo was even better than on the iphone 4s with the exactly the same usage, now that i'm on GB things are not that worse after all, with Zeus rom i have 10-12 hours of intense usage, 3g always on, fb messenger, whatsapp, some browsing, market etc,mails, sincro on...i think i's not that bad, I know that iphone 4s has almost the same drain...
2. as for the rest I really had no problems with it! and with Huexxx's rom it's a jewel, really nice aesthetically and functionally...
OB is a very good device.. but you can find much better..

Hello there guys,
I'm wondering what roms/launchers etc you are running, what widgets, what your average use of your phone is and how long the battery lasts with all of the junk that you are using.
Ofcourse, this topic will also serve the purpose as to help people with tweaks, ideas for powersaving etc.
I'll start off with my Optimus 2X Speed running on a stock ROM.
I'm using LauncherPro, just because it looked nice.
I've got a blackish sort of background with just the most needed apps on it, such as the games I frequently play, a battery widget, camera etc. Not using the weather gadget btw! As it seemed to eat my battery..
Also monitoring my 3G usage with 3G Watchdog.
--
Recently using Autokiller Memory Optimiser (might have gotten the name wrong..) I'm having around 160-170mb of RAM free, this with a task killer running, 3G Watchdog, Lookout, Battery Widget and Superuser.
Scoring a proper 2450 on Quadrant Benchmark.
My battery lasts around a day with pretty heavy use.
I often take it out to game for a while, an hour a day or so, shoot some pictures, send a lot of 'What'sApp' messages etc.
Charge it up at around 18:00 and have around 25% battery remaining the next day at the same time.
I'd love to hear your experiences, uses, complains, tips etc.
o2x currently running cyanogenmod 7 #111 nightly (2.3.5)
apps: droidwall, juice defender, automatic task killer
battery usage is similar to mafs'
quadrant score 3127 (not OC'd)

was using DJDroid v0.7,it has good battery life, using 1% every 1+ hrs during standby while using juice defender.
the quadrant is only around 2200 to 2400+.
I use cyanogen mod nightly I don't look at benchmarks, but the battery is really better than in stock. I can stay 3 day in idle and when I'm on the internet (with wifi) my battery goes down 10% per hour (a bit too much ).

10%/ hour is quite good, my SGS sucked 20% in an hour.

How do I do that?

Make an init.d script and put the following in it:
echo "0" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

Will this disable the core totally?
I am currently testing SetCPU and will see if this works.

How much screen on time do you get?
Did you use it all the time before capturing that screenshot or was it idle?

I did normal usage on it, or let's say the same as any other day. Using WhatsApp mostly. My stock ROM gives me at least 19h without using stamina mode, CM give me a good day from a new installation, but after day two I get this battery drain.

The next time it happens, take a screenshot like this, a screenshot of the graph when you first get into battery usage...and also take a screenshot of your screen on time (you get to it by tapping on "screen" in battery usage tab). Because if you get around 3:45 - 4:30 hours of screen on time, it's not bad battery life but actually maximum of what our phone can get.

My device is not very old. It's about 1 year now and battery isn't as good as it used to be. When I got it after school I had minimum 50% no matter what I've been doing and atm it's 24% which is disturbing.

Check for battery health in 7378423 to see if it had any wear out in battery capacity. Mine is 31460 (1+ year, when buy it is 32000, Sony is always add more to make the battery last longer )
And check for any apps that run out of battery, malware too (There are some Android malware which mine Bitcoin/Litecoin and make phone hot and run out of battery)
Also check your kernel setting or reflash ROM if nessesary.......
Mine is 1,5-2 day battery life with typical behavior.......
Well, my battery says 31440 when at 86% of charge. I haven't got many wake locks in betterbatterystats either so I'm not sure what could be the cause. I'm on stock kernel. Thanks for the heads up on that mining malware. I had no idea it went over to mobile devices. My phone actually gets a bit hot after some regular usage, but nothing out of ordinary I guess. I did lots of mods to the stock rom on my own so I'm not that keen on reflashing. I'd rather find out what could be the cause of that poor battery life and fix it by myself.
Any other suggestions and things to try?
You can reinstall your Firmware, and see if the battery life would be better. And my Wakelocks have i solved with the App DS Battery Saver.
Strangely enogh my battery was at 2880 after only 140 charge cycles.
Then by accidient it deep discharged (problems with not charging, hard reset etc. until it was fully 100% dead) and now is back at 3130 with only the first charge cycle counted as 1.
Not the case here since your's has a good number, but I wanted to add this information.
Hello fellow Moto X users! I want to buy a Moto X 2014 Pure Edition. Since this is my first smartphone, I have read several reviews online as well as the reviews of the people who have bought it from the online store. The phone looks great on paper except the battery, but since the software is optimized and mostly stock, I believe the battery is finer than those of pesky Samsung phones. I do not want to spend too much, neither do I have a taste for skinned Android experience.
There's one issue though, I haven't been able to get a clear picture of what the smartphone's battery is like. Some websites like GSMArena have claimed the web browsing time to be 9+ hours on Lollipop, while some other discussions on reddit point out to screen on time of 4-5 hours. I need help because this is the only great device I can buy for the limited money I can spend.
I request someone on the latest Lollipop firmware to post statistics of their battery life. If you can show me the variation of battery over WHOLE 24 HOURS with Screen ON Time over that period, I'll be very happy. I expect this phone to provide me 4-5 hours of screen on time over 18-24 hour period.
Thanks.
BUMP!
ANYONE? Please? Just a screenshot of screen on time and overall time?

Not much to go by really. When I was working I had wifi on 24/7. The 5h+ SoT is purely on weekends when I just read on it, not doing anything else.
And I were you, I'd wait till Aug-Sep when Moto X 2015 comes out (has a 3400mAH~ battery). Other than that with mixed use of reading, tapatalk, spotify, web, mail checking and skype I'd reach around 5hrs of SoT by the end of the day.
Edit: I use Temaseks CM 12.1 set at 380 DPI. Stock ROM lacks the customization for my taste.
update: this was from the CM 12.1 Temasek build from 0530
This was done with reading on fanfiction reader only, nothing else.

P.S. ik What the spikes are in the graph, but i didnt charge the phone whatsoever!

As a Motorola users for a long time, this is pretty normal actually. Motorola phones have excellent battery life - way better than iPhones. Iphone users are just over exaggerating that they have good battery. Add to the fact that most of them haven't used a flagship Android device or if they once did, it would most likely be a Samsung.

Auto my dear. If you live with wifi and 4G on, you will never understand those numbers. Start with these first

ok thank you
Hi, how much SOT Can do Moto on mobile data? Thanks for rep.
Bluetooth and 4g all the time
from what i see battery life is good on wifi, when using mobile data it's not so good anymore, someone uses two sim cards and only mobile data and could show their battery stats
I got additional 2 hours of battery life when I disabled 5G, excellent.
Personally my phone's battery is so bad. I mean it lasts long enough but it just suddenly turn off at 20 or 18 or so. Other times it acts normally. Sometimes when I charge it, the battery percentage would stay at 100 for hours, then it starts going down and at 40 the phone dies
8hs aprox
