Battery life, mind blown. - Sprint HTC One (M8)

So my first real day with the phone and I am extremely impressed with the battery life, didn't have any battery saving enabled and I used my phone normally plus I watched 4 episodes of the walking dead on Netflix.

Yeah, it is very good.
HTC EVO 4G - my first real smart phone. Had to hang on a charger if I wanted to use the phone for anything but have it in my pcket and gt forbig 4G kicked in... the phone would lilterally heat up by just sitting in a pocket.
HTC 4G LTE - big improvement over Evo. Battery life much better, super nice screen, fast, etc..
HTC One M8 - wowza. Super smooth and battery life is simply amazing.

After running the ruu for 4.3 sense 5 on the LTE on average I get 16 hours and I'm only down to 20% when I plug in for the night.

I could get much longer battery time if I wasn't streaming Netflix for 4 hours, I'll have to get better battery stats to show the on screen time. My wife is at 64% battery with 18 hours and 5 minutes.

Just finally has the pleasure of being out in the day, reaching 14%, turning on extreme power savings mode, and making 4hrs til I got home. To which I was then at 12%. Haha pretty awesome

Hm... for some reason my battery life hasn't been as great as everyone is reporting. I'm not getting anywhere near 24 hours.
I don't know if it's because of an app I have installed.. or my background data settings.. or what.

[Q] My battery drain!

Greeting guys. Im newbie with samsung ace. For all i love this device. But why my bat drains so fast? Is it normal?
I could charge my ace three times a day. Or maybe my bat was damaged?

Use any battery saver application from playstore .. it shows ur battery status ...

Very fast battery drain is normal for this phone. There are lots of battery related threads, people have gone to great lengths to make the battery last longer.
Right now I can use it for about 9-10 hours constant usage, no rests (internet browsing/IM/some music/few phone calls/syncing On - all with a very bad 2G internet connection) before it runs out of juice completely. But that's after underclocking, reducing display brightness, installing JuiceDefender and a few other measures.
I check battery usage on the phone. And i didnt expected! My cell standby use almost 60% bat! What a sock!
I'll try 2xbatterysaver. And my packet data turn off when screen gets off. :sly:
Some sacrificing makes perfect!

Just use the deep sleep option to make ur fone go to sleep..i use deep sleep for about 12 hours each day ..
(its not deep sleep..its drunken sleep )
You can use Battery Monitor Widget to view the app's with more consumption of energy. What ROM you use? In CM7.2 u can do underclock easy.
Yes! Thanks! I already get cm7 recently. You know, my batt pretty awesome now! Nice rom.
Thanks for your info.

In your hunt to save more and more battery, eventually you'll notice that if you're giving max priority to the battery save, your phone's performance is related in inverse.
Such as, if you use Juice Defender, (I bought Ultimate), it shuts off the wifi / data while screen is off. and when we turn screen on, it will switch on back. During its switch on, phone will lag.
I have been using Ace for 8 months now, what I finally chose is performance. fak the battery life, enjoy the speed.

Getting good battery backup [Not Rooted][Review]

Hey,
It's been 2 weeks since I got my Black 32Gig Nexus 5, I was a little bit afraid about the battery backup of N5 from reviews, every reviewer pointed out that N5 battery is downright bad but after getting my device I found out that N5 battery is NOT that bad but actually offers good backup :fingers-crossed: , the funny thing is when I charged first time and used my N5 it went down after just 5 hours with SOT of 2 hours !! but what makes me wonder is that after my first charging backup starts to increase !! I don't know why is this happening but battery backup actually increased noticeably day after day, I just don't know how this is happening may be battery is taking time to set up, I know first days we use our device with everything turned on thereby draining battery more than after getting used to but I can confirm that's not the case, backup is actually increasing. I have attached images of my current backup+settings.
Battery Status
Total time on battery : 20 Hours
Screen on time : 5 hours
Settings
Not Rooted.
Brightness: 20%(Approx.), Auto was too bright.
Location : On all the time with Battery saving mode.
WIFI: On all the time
Data: On all the time(HSPDA)
Bluetooth/NFC: Off all the time(I didn't had a chance to use it)
Google Now/ Location reporting : On
Vibration on typing(Key touch): Off (prolly most don't care about this but a big battery drainer)
Usage
30 mins of phone call
30-40 mins of web browsing with Chrome
30 mins of gaming (Temple run and NFS)
20 mins of music
Couple of photos taken
Couple of apps downloaded with playstore etc
I know battery is NOT a pro side of N5 but 20 hours is all I expect from a quad core smartphone !! also backup is really not a dealbreaker for Nexus 5.
My humble small review
Cons (That would go first)
Speaker - This is the biggest problem and a "can be deal breaker" con of N5, I never expected BOOMSOUND from this phone but current ouput is downright bad.
Camera App - Sucks big time, lot of time to focus etc but don't take me wrong image quality is NICE.
A bigger battery would have been better (Not saying current backup is bad)
Button rattling, negligible but shows production carelessness.
IR Blaster would have been nice, It's kinda asking a lot for $350 device it would have been a bigger plus since Kitkat is natively supporting it.
Pros
Everything else than cons about the phone are huge pros :angel:

While I haven't seen any crazy battery life from this phone I have been getting 4½ hours screen time with 20+ hours on a charge consistently. After I figured after that touch sounds were causing a bad wakelock I was having the first couple days.
So I'm perfectly happy with battery life, its an improvement over my G'Nex and that's on LTE the entire time.

[Q] Lt25i Xperia V - battery drain issue

Hi all,
I am new to this forum...just quickly asking if there is any Lt25i user on this forum having the same issue with the battery. I've been using it for about 8 months with a stock rom (4.1.2, all updated). It is good device in generally apart from the battery which drain itself in about 8 hours or 9 hours of normal office worker use (you know, reply 20 or 30ish msgs or a couple calls total 30 mins tops, play around during lunch time, on a HSPA+ network, not LTE, about 20 apps installed on the device and no games at all).. and sometimes you can see the battery percentage drops down by one or two percent when you have been whatsapping continuously for about 10 mins..That's so much quicker than the other phone that I have (Galaxy S4). any one experiencing the same issue? what would you recommend? I am planning to flash the rom but not entirely sure which to choose. Your response is appreciated.

Youre not alone buddy. Although to many causes frustrations, if I'm just texting (whatsapp) I just leave it on Edge, or disable mobile data when im not using the phone. It's when I'm surfing the net that I'll leave it on HSPA+.

A lil battery optimization even on this 'tiny' battery by 2014 standards could have gone a long way.

To be quite honest, 5.5 hours of screen on is pretty darn awesome for any Android phone except behemoths like RAZR MAXX or Galaxy Note models.

However, with HSPA+ always on I can only get around 3.5-4 hours SOT at 15 plus hours on battery. The OP should install BBS and check what eats his battery on the background. 8 hours is pathetic.

Note 2 Extended battery Review. 7600mah

Hello guys and gals,
I have received the extended battery that i have ordered on last friday and has been using it for the past 3 days.
The model i have ordered is 7600mah extended battery with NFC and back battery cover.
I can't confirm the battery capacity is 7600mah or not but it sure have increased my standby time by double.
The back battery cover has a very tight and good fitting as good as the original and it looks good too.
The battery does add weight and bulk to note 2 but it is worth the standby time.
I am not here to promote this item but just to share out my findings.
The link for the battery is :
http://www.ebay.com.my/itm/27127178...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
and i have only ordered this case yesterday and i hope it will fit perfectly....

Thank you.
That battery might be a dud. I get way over 24hrs of use and over 6hrs of screen time on my standard original battery. And that's on the 4.3 rom. I used to get closer to 9-10 hrs screen time on the original 4.1.1 rom when I first got the phone.

depends on your usage bro, for my stqndard battery, usually i need to charge after 7 to 8 hours after i unplug from my charger after a full charge while this extended battery i use now doubles the time.
different people have different kinds of apps on their phone so the result may varies and very subjective.
i also can get over 24 hours of stanby time if i only have very basic apps installed on my note 2.
Cheers.
Same for me, 10h on 4.1.2 and only 6 on 4.3.
I will try slimbean this week to see if its better.

I think I know why the reactions were a bit too emotional - a screenshot of the screen up time would help to prove your point. And you don't have to estimate, just when viewing the battery graph page, click on the Screen entry, the precise time is there.

V2 battery life

My replacement is not as good as my V1. It's a bit lower. I used to get close to 7 hour SOT. V2 I get about 6.

Sent from my SM-N930T using XDA-Developers mobile app
It really depends on the crap that's running in the background and some of it doesn't even show in the program list under battery usage. V2 in my case runs much more efficient than V1. Right now I'm at 78% with 1hr 40 SOT, total run time over 12 hours. But to put things into perspective right before exchange my V1 started running 6% battery usage per hour, IDLING and nothing extraordinary showed up. I would charge it before sleep and in the morning it would be like 50%. After killing everything I didn't use it went back to normal and then I exchanged it, so never figure it out which particular program was causing this, but if this happens again I won't rest until I find offending apps and out will it go.
BTW I have everything on: GPS, NFC, BT, Wifi etc.

I'm getting awesome battery life. I'm even running a gear s2, GPS on, Bluetooth on streamed music. Only Facebook disabled.
I do run it in mid power saving mode though but 7 hours with 19 percent left ain't bad.
This is running it down to 8%. Changed themes but it's same usage day from previous post.
While my SOT this cycle isn't much, I'm happy with the battery life.
Sent from my SM-N930T using Tapatalk
That's good considering you had 1 day and 14 hours of total time. My SOT was with heavy use so total time was less. I'm happy too. SOT is comparable to my old iPhone 6 Plus. Only thing is standby time on the plus was much better. That doesn't matter though because I love the features of the note 7 better so it was a trade off.
I've been getting pretty much the same as before. About 4 hours screen with 20 total.

Almost 1 day 15 hours actually, but yeah normally I use my phone more than I did the last day and a half. But overall the battery is outperforming any other phone I've ever owned.
