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)

Rooted. MI9. Froze or deleted some bloatware. Using xposed to mod system. My usual usage nets 6-7 hours screen time with 1 day 10-12 hours total time. Power save mode functions off.

I rooted the first day de LA Vega was available. Occasionally my battery life will not be up to my average. This usually occurs when I am in a different location with a weak signal.

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.

@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.

You, your phone, wife, and daughters; sir, all suck. Now GTFO of our forums you little biotch.
58 "thanks"
The thanks bar is officially meaningless. Maybe it should just be removed.
Or, maybe thanks should only be given when either a) a developer makes something and posts it on XDA, or b) someone asks a question and they receive/instructions to fix their broken phones.
Alternatively, give XDA an age requirement of 21, or at least 18. If only it was possible to verify

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.

I guess I just assumed amoled screens used more juice since mine is so awful. Either way I'm getting a one.

I have hit 5 hours 51 minutes at the peak, but 4+ hours is easy. I'm always using battery saver though. I never game, so having the phone at full speed isn't important to me

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.
