I know that with DynamicKat KK I can use my phone for 2 days without charging it if I'm just making calls and not playing with it at all.
Hmm that's a little bit on the short side, have you cleared cache or rebooted your phone recently?
Also, has anything been keeping your phone awake when you weren't using it?

none of these custom ROM are optimized for battery.. i have tried a couple of them..
you can give 'Easy battery saver' from google play a shot.. it is a good tool and can help you in optimizing the battery..
BTW what do you primarily use your phone for?

Not 5% for that short period of time.
Something is seriously wrong dude, download betterbatterystats and run it a bit and see what drains so much. Either your battery is bad or you have some app that drains a lot battery in background.
Can someone please guide me on how to use betterbatterystats?? I installed it but I don't know how to make it work :s

Go uninstall facebook.
it made my incredible S last like, 3 hours longer
and my nexus 7 battery life went from 3 days to 4 days
3.5 hours of screen on time is a lot, id say at almost lasting a whole day you're doing pretty well?

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 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?

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.
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.

In my opinion 10 hours is pretty good flr moderate use, im not you though of course. Have you tried turning on auto brightness/using a brightness app/turning doen brightness, that may help, also fot wakelocks i believe greenify will help with that.
