That doesn't look quite right...have you restarted the device since you've upgraded to 4.2?

Just refresh and it will update..

Yep. It's been restarted. Also another thing I noticed is now the nexus 7 will charge on my Philips fidelio audio dock. Adi they must have changed something up with the charging aspect of the n7.

Battery drain

I'm having a problem with my phone not going into deep sleep, I've tried reboots and stopping background processes, it didn't help. Any ideas?

Try betterbatterystats from store then see what's actually happening behind the scenes.

Why are you complaining? You got more than 17 hours from only 35% battery loss! I get maybe 15 hours with 100% battery loss -_-
But to help your problem, install an app called greenify. It allows you to block certain apps from being active in the background.
I usually lose about 5% tho after 12 hours with everything off

I'm getting 25% drain after about 9 hours of deep sleep on the newest Slimbeaan 4.1 release. I seem to remember only having 5-10% drain overnight on the first few builds. Is my battery dying or is it the newer builds?

Are you sure you mean 4.1 or 4.2 which has recently been released? The battery drain on 4.2 ROMs is an issue right now, although 4.1 isn't a whole lot better either.

I switched onto the 4.2 bandwagon a while ago and just recently reverted back to Slimbean 4.1 as I had remembered having great battery life on it. But after flashing and using for a few days, it's really not that much better. I still lose about 20-25% overnight on both 4.2 and 4.1 on the stock battery.
Well I just noticed something, it clearly says 17 hours, I assume on a 1+ year old battery am I correct? If so, then why are you complaining!!! Lmao you have Fantastic battery life!!!!

17 hours?
I'd be interested to know what ROM, etc. the OP is using to get 17+ hours of battery life out of this phone. Is it an extended battery? I'm getting pretty poor batter life after recently switching from Peach to Slimbean 4.1.2. Greenify seems to help.

If you have noticed, most people with good battery life seem not to use the phone to make calls. I think searching for a network drains the battery

It's a screensaver that you can use while docked or charging. Nothing really special, just something else for them to say they have as a feature really.
Not so good when using it while charging as it keeps the screen on slowing down the rate of charge as I found out this morning. Thanks for your reply

My other One works perfect. On this one I get that app drawer dim, small amount of lag, and ocasional screen unrisponsiveness. Odd thing is both phones are stock 4.3 and about same production date. Maybe it's the colour of the phone ?

I don't think so. I had egzactly the same apps on both my phones and only the black one is acting up. The silver one is working fine. So it must be the colour ?

rebooted several times, i am on arhd 40.3, and it stopped to get dimmed out of the blue.
experienced similar probs with blinkfeed, as some of the posts didn't show up.

It looks like multitasking is the main reason for this. I can replicate it by opening few apps and then going to app drawer

I had the same issue using the last 4.3 based ViperOne ROM. Pretty sure I remember reading about it being due to the animation scale being 0.5
Didn't really find it to be an annoyance at all, and was only maybe 1 in 7 times that it occurred so never really worried about it

HTC one battery draining 6% per hour!!

Explain this to me
It is hard to tell by the screen shot, but could be that you had the screen on for a long time, or that your phone was spending energy to trying to connect to cell service?
Ok I'll post some neescreenshots in next few days.which screenshots should I post? Also should I leave power saver off?

Download GSAM battery monitor and post screens from it. It has a very detailed breakdown of where your juice is going.

Try using Juice defender to make WiFi turn off when your screen is off. Also, if you're rooted you can download greenify from the market. All those little things drain battery fast. :thumbup:

I would agree. GSAM says 12 hours since last recharge and you are at 55% battery. I think that is pretty good.
When I turn on GPS or network location I get a wakelock from Google play services or Google "network location" I want to be able to use the features. When I turn on GPS I have to force close one of them or the GPS icon is on the whole time!!

Is your phone hooked up to Google now? Try looking at some of those features, I know for me it was pretty much running the entire time, even if you closed out of it. I mean, it constantly monitors where you are...Also, any type of weather app, widget etc does the same, in my experience.

My battery drains 6% every half hour. I've tried flashing two different Roms from a stock sense to CM11 but no avail. Plus it takes all day to get to a full charge when charging. Could my battery be bad or something I'm not noticing? #noob

When I'm on WiFi for any amount of time makes my battery drain fast with nothing else on (GPS,Bluetooth etc...). I have power saver,sleep mode abd WiFi optimization on if that makes a difference. Dropbox upload is off.

I think you're in the normal range. I have 6.2% an hour today with moderate (similar to yours) use.

Dynamic Notifications?

Anyone use it or know if it is a big battery drain?
Thinking of using it full time since the Note 3 us using an Amoled screen and it should not use much battery.
Just would like to know real world usage.
