I liked Easy Battery Saver (EBS) and used it for two days. Unfortunately, they have inmobile advertisements which I happened to click accidentally and ended up paying a price for some useless ebooks or some such stuff. I liked the manner in which the EBS shows the detailed battery usage characteristics. However, due to the annoying in-mobile advts, I had to remove it.
Subsequently, I am using Juice Defender Ultimate (a paid app), which appears to be very good. It doesn't give the details of how much battery each app has used, but, gives a factor as saved 1.5 times your battery, etc.

So those that have a Vivid how has the battery life been? HTC has been getting a bad wrap for that.

Its bad not as bad as the Inspire but bad.
RE: Battery Vivid Life
Mine has been absolutely horrid. With moderate use I'm lucky if it lasts 3 hours. To be honest, though, I didn't let it charge completely when I first got it - I was too excited. I'm actually recalibrating it now in hopes of improving it.

Getting great battery life, probabably about the same if not slightly better than I got with my iPhone4. Definaletly the best switch I've made.

I got mine this afternoon. I had an Infuse 4G and traded it in for a Vivid. According to my Battery Monitor Widget after 3 hrs 48 mins (battery was fully charged) I'm at 86%. I am using Juice Defender Ultimate.
Yet another battery life thread...

My battery life is quite a bit better than even the GS2 I had for a short while. I don't even know what the low battery alert looks/sounds like.

The notification light blinks yellow, and a big battery image and a message pop up on the screen when the battery level hits 10%, then again at 5%. It's pretty obvious. Also, the phone shuts down some background functions such as data syncing to conserve battery power.
Full on data streaming of my podcast or Rdio on Hspa drains my battery in 5 hours or so. With sporadic web browsing in there, just listening to cached music and podcast I stretch it past 8 hours. Better then my desire by 2/3 hours

Yeah, I thought my GS2 was good, but this is definitely better, especially considering LTE.
I finally ran it down to low battery the other day because an app ran away with my processor and drained my battery in the background. It did this in my locker while I was at the gym. When I finally pulled it out of my pants, it was super hot and down 20% lower than usual for that time of day. I restarted the phone and still managed to make it through the rest of the day and night before it died, but just barely.
Runaway apps is one of the things I have always hated about android, but that was the only time it happened since I bought the phone, so I can live with it.

Yeah, I'd read reviews that the battery life wasn't spectacular - but this is downright confusing! Do you think I ruined it by just using right out of the box without letting it do a few charge cycles (again I was TOO excited, the most excited I'd ever been about a phone)?

well you know, OEM battery price is about $30, why so expensive? perhaps samsung talks about quality which placed on battery.
well, you can buy it to vanish your curiousity, then give it personal review to us
I'm not preventing you to buy but i believe something bad will happen to our SGA using that battery

More details pls..How long does the battery last?
Usage pattern?
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/3-1500m-...AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item4165e43896
I have been using these batteries for about 4 months now and I must say I'm pretty impressed. The battery life is a bit better than the OEM battery and it comes with three and a wall charger.
Was wondering if anyone knows of a good extended battery?
Im kind of weary of them because before my Note II, I had an HTC EVO 3D and tried using an extended battery and it just fried the the display, it never worked again.
So I was wondering if someone could link me to an extended battery that actually worked for them, I would much appreciate it.
Thanks in advance .

Look in general area. I've been doing a review on the anker

Mugen is crazy asking for $100. I just got my Anker yesterday for 16 bucks on Amazon. Popped it in my phone and it had 50% juice in it. Right now almost 24 hours later I'm sitting at 35%. Still far from being able to tell how good it will be because I haven't had it long enough but it seems very promising.

+1 same question here mate
Hey guys I just got the hyperion 6200 with extended cover and here are my results so far in pics below.
I've had the screen brightness on about %20 the whole time. If you dont mind the bulk this thing is a beast! As of right now it was definitely worth $20. Hope this helps.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
Thats not much better then stock battery imo, I can easily go 14-20+ hrs with at least 6-7 screen on time heavy usage. The note 2 is a phone that doesn't need an extended battery and deserves to stay the sexy ***** of a phone that it is (no prego back bump needed ) lol
Sent from my SCH-I605 aka macks jellybeans rom.
I definitely agree with the preggo look lol, but so far it seems like its gonna get through 2 days with heavy usage. I do like how long this battery is lasting, but only time will tell if I decide to fully stay with it.

You really can't compare your use to anyone else's. There are too many variables. It's best to compare with yourself. If you consistently get "35 hours with stock battery" would you get 70 with this one? Does anyone who uses an extended battery double or at least increase their usage considerably with it while maintaining the same usage patterns?

Well said! I did double my usage of two days instead of one through my first full charge (heavy user). I always keep my brightness at 20%, some calls emails, some gaming, constantly syncing, and mp3 player at least 4 hours a day. I kept my usage pattern the same since im mostly using it for work.
Only time will tell how long it'll last and how well it'll perform. For right now im happy with the purchase.

Following up with what I said earlier... Tho I do understand extended batteries can definetly be beneficial to extreme heavy users who are away from any way of charging their phone, im quite impressed with my results on stock battery with plenty more battery to kill b4 I get home from work (even on a 12+ hr shift)

Last night I charged my phone and unplugged it around 6:30 am, but used it for maybe 10-15 minutes total for some calling and light apps like iGag, but as you can see, Android OS drained almost 30% of the battery while the phone was idling.
What exactly is Android OS, because I can't find the exact apps which drained the battery so badly. Any apps or advices for detecting the troubled apps or an advice? Thanks guys. :good:
Try battery stats plus from Google Play.run it for while, it will calculate which apps are draining your battery most.

Hey guys,
I want to buy a new phone and im thinking of buying the Xperia T. What's important for me is the batterylife and the screen. Ive got an arc at the moment and i know the sony screens are awesome so i.dont worry about that. But the battery life,.is there any ex-arc user here? Is the battery life better or worse? I use 3G all day and i mostly get through the day with 3.5 hours of screen usage with the arc. Can the xperia t give me the same result?

I upgraded from an Arc S. XperiaT is better in everyway. With regards to battery life, my Arc S would last about a day where as my XperiaT easily lasts 2-3days with a fair about of music(speaker, bluetooth, ear phones), photographs, bit of web browsing, all syncing on.
