New to this phone and, wondered why the battery percentage only goes down 10% at a time?

It's something to do with the ui try downloading the circle battery widget it shows one percent increments
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA App

If you ever get into custom ROMs, Liberty 3 RC1 has 1% increments built into it. Otherwise, there's a standalone hack wandering around here somewhere.

I have no hack or anything, I just use the Circle Battery Widget off the market and it shows 1% battery increments:

I'm into custom ROM's. I've had a few phones that I rooted and loved it!

You can try battery solo widget too. Its free.

The free Solo Widget goes in 10% increments. The Circle Battery Widget goes in 1% increments like others already said.

There's a few different named widgets. You have to type battery solo widget. Here's a screenshot showing it's not 10% Increments

That looks horrible. But my battery is at 54 and it also displays on the widget.

I had it set up to snap a png file. Then changed it to jpeg. Jpeg gave it a better resolution. I remember pngs being really small pics.

I use the battery monitor widget. I set it up so the widget shows me my battery temp, estimated time until my battery dies, and battery % (uses 1% increments). Its also nice because it shows a graph of your battery usage when you open the app/tap on the widget.

Both th3ory roms and liberty rom have 1% battery mod I stay away from battery widget they use to much battery life.

Yeah, I love TH3ORY's ROM, that was the first thing I absolutely loved about it when he first released it. I saw something around here on XDA I think that had a 1% battery hack for stock...but I can't find it again. It was probably in the Development forum.

I am getting great speeds on wifi, regularly above 20 which is what I get on my computers too. It might have something to do with that almost dead battery you had while doing the tests. Try it again when you are charged up and see if that makes a difference.

Here're my WiFi results after 4.2.1
I think it may be your battery being drained but I could be wrong. I was at 53% or so when I ran the test.

Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

@OP I actually don't see anything that would be showing how slow your WiFi is from the given picture I mean if you look tests were carried our on both WiFi and data network. So how are you comparing these figures and what's your usual WiFi speed so people would know what you are talking about.
Also maybe there's some other activity on router or someone is downloading something. Reset router and do the same test again so you can get better results

How can software lower Wi-Fi speeds if that is based on your router. My Wi-Fi is running just fine...
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

3 speed test results are hardly conclusive. Your WiFi speed could vary depending on the load on your broadband at different times or because of a bunch of other reasons.

Nexus 7 battery dies fast

Hi, I got a nexus 7 for Christmas and the battery was really good lasted all day, but I had to return it for an exchange because there was circle marks on the screen,
my new nexus 7's battery dies really fast, i left it on charge all night and it fully charges so I don't think its a battery issue maybe a software issue?
I don't know if this makes a difference but my first nexus had 4.2.1 pre installed but my new nexus I had to update it myself.
Is there a way to fix this or should I return my nexus to PC world?
Thanks in advance!

Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

The main difference I found when switched from 4.1 to 4.2 is that Wifi didn't go on standby when the device wasn't awake. So go into wifi settings and change it so it's only connected to Wifi when the device is in use or charging.

I changed the Wi-Fi settings now, I'll let you know if it helps.

What? Could you restate that so that we (or at least I) can understand? It sounds like you're saying 2 different things.

Hello, I'm in the UK and I'm facing a problem similar to yours.
I got my device at the beginning of December, and used to get ~8-9 hours of screen time. Now, I'm barely getting 6, and you can add screen lifting and back light bleeding issues to that as well.
I'm going to preform a factory reset in a few days, if that doesn't work, I'm considering getting it to customer care/replaced.
PS, I'm stock 4.2.1 and my Wi-Fi doesn't turn off when it's in sleep mode. :-\
Sent from my Nexus 7

mine last 4.5 days with light web browsing. mostly just mx video player. 17% idle. you need to see whats keeps your device awake and not letting it goto sleep properly. i'm on latest smoothrom. i manually turn off wifi when i am not gonna use it for awhile. when i 1st got my nexus 7 i had a similar issue with mediaserver process using 80% of battery and killing the device within 9 hours. i couldnt pin point the culprit but hasn't happened again.

Its a shame really I honestly thought Google had made a good and reliable tablet I had to return my other nexus back again today because I dropped it and the battery wouldn't charge so they replaced so I'll see how the battery does

I had the same problem / My Nexus got switched off and even drained even when the usage is less / Switched to Zerolemon battery and no problem after that.

My battery life has been holding up well from a secondhand Unit I bought a few weeks ago. I'm getting about 7-9 hours of life on average use with a little gaming.

I still have that problem on CM 11 M2

Yeah...saying my battery life sucks isn't going to help anyone help you. How about some details? Screen shots? Do you have Gsam....its a great tool to find battery issues.
Without some digging....your battery troubles aren't gonna go away.

Screen on time?

Quick battery life question for you guys. When your battery is almost totally depleted, what does your screen on time look like? 3 hours? 4 hours? I have a GS3 and for me it's somewhere between 2.5 and 3 hours. I assume the One would be a bit better due to the LCD screen instead of the amoled.

I've been getting about 2.5 hours of screen on time. Generally amoled screens use less power than LCD.
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app

Really? My gs3 does 4-5 hours. And yes, I use the phone.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2

I'm pretty sure amoled uses less power also, particularly with darker colors.
My screen on time has varied depending on usage. Mostly I have been playing games, the 3d ones tend to take a lot more juice. Certain less intensive games and regular browsing/texting/videos seem to draw a lot less. I'd range my screen on time from 3-5 hours depending on this.

So I'm having a hard time finding the screen on time. I go into the batter setting, check usage and scroll down below the apps to system apps and cannot find it. Am I missing something? I apologize for the ignorance but I'm having a hard time.

yea judging from what I've been seeing on the forums you should be able to get around 4 hrs screen on time. I'll be kinda mad if i get less than that with moderate usage considering I get 2-2.5 hrs screen on with my GS2 at the moment.
Im getting my phone today so I'll report back after a few days of use

5 hours a day is normal. 5:40 is peak.

Battery life 1 week
Hi,
I own my note 3 now 3 weeks and use it primarily as an organizer (acalendar+) with phone-capabilities. I dont use big internet-bandwith. So I usually use the GSM-network and avoid UMTS. I rooted my device to be able to reduce processorspeed via juicedefender as soon as the screen is switched off, As I found it unacceptable to live with a short screen-timeout, I installed "screen off and lock" to switch off the screen manually as soon as I am done.
I am syncing my Lotus-Notes calendar at work with google and sync once an hour (controlled by juice-defender) via gsm.
I usually use the calendar twice an hour (as I enter most of the appointmernts in Lotus Notes I do only reading)
Bluetooth is switched off, GPS is switched off
with this I enhanced my battery lifetime from 2.5 days to 7 days
Last week my note 3 survived 1 week without charging. This week I am at 68% after almost 3 days (see attached screenshot)
