Hi,
After updating to Gingerbread the battery use page in settings no longer resets the counter after charging.
The battery monitor I got installed however does reset and show correct values.
Anyone else got this?
Also, Muffin Knight (game app) is listed as using a lot of battery but this is not correct. It has not been run after the last reboot and is not running when I check.

Getting the same issue on mine.
I have to Reboot to clear the Usage info.
At the moment i'm just waiting for my ontract to come up for renewal so I can get rid of this cursed piece of Crap
Battery usage is all over the place. 1 day i will use 3% over 5 hours, another time it will use 20-30% in 2 hours
How LG could ever call this a Flagship phone I don't know
Checked battery-usage just now myself. And i too have this problem. Its not reset at all.. This bumps my problems after installing GB update to 4 issues!
I've also noticed when you reboot, the battery stats reset completely so my phone is now showing total usage on battery is 1m 34secs
where before it was showing 2hrs usage which was correct
The same happened to mee. But i think this is normal? since you could have your phone turned off for lets say 5 hours, and then the reported time would be wrong, so i guess its normal for the timer to reset aswell.
Hi guys. Last night, for the second time, something odd happened to my note. I was at 39% battery at about 1 o'clock in the night when I went to bed, and this morning, for the second time, the phone was dead. No battery whatsoever. The first time I didn't worry about it, but now I'm thinking about taking it to warranty.
I had Wi-fi off, 3G-off, no apps in the background(except basic services and avast) , I don't use sync, I have a custom battery saver (same settings as the default one, except I always keep GPS-on). I have XXLC1-ROM (stock - rooted). I have frozen some useless processes with Titanium Back-up(the mini-diary, AP-mobile, Social-hub, Readers hub). I also used the app Battery Calibration when the phone was at 100%, the one created by Nema. Should I be worried and take it to warranty ? It doesn't happen a lot because I usually let the phone charge overnight.
Added a screenshot of battery usage: http://www.picz.ro/show-image.php?id=7873c3532838d733974b56544cc222f5
Install betterbatterystatus app and monitor which app or hardware draining the battery particularly. So that you can monitor and control as wanted. You don't have to take to warranty. There are lot of threads regarding this topic, surf it, lot of ppl got relived from this same problem.
Did u turn off fast dormancy

dude. uninstall avast first of all then do a restart and test it that way
My note went from 98% to 'dead' in 6 hours with Battery monitor showing 'Kernel' as the cause.
I had missed seeing an SMS arrive and the 'preview' of the message was on the screen. This seemed to be the cause.
Hi everyone,
I brought this wonderful phone (or atleast i thought wonderful) couple of weeks ago ( delivered on release date)
Now i expected the battery to be good as its 2300 mah but it the phone doesnt seem to last no way near as long as other claim i had an s3 before this htc one, 9 times outta 10 i only had to charge it once a day and never activated power saver mode,
On the htc one i constantly have power saver turn on and it just doesnt seem to be doing anything , i havnt changed my usage of my phone, if anything ive used it less,
For example the s3 lasted my full 8 hour shift with nothing running expcept the tunein radio app, the htc one only seems to last 4-5 hours with everything closed except the tune in radio app. Ive not changed networks so low signal shouldnt be causing the drain as there isnt a difference in signal levels,
So is there anything else i can do to stop bettery draining. Bluetooth, wifi, nfc, etc all turned off, screen on auto brightness ,
Sent from my htc one with just 26% battery left and i havnt even rrached 4 hours of my shift yet, left house at 9:45 with 100%
You probably have an app preventing the phone from sleeping. There are loads of tutorials on how to check for partial wake locks to fix this.

Try this or this to detect the wakelocks. For more info on wakelock, read this thread
Definitely sounds like you have an app which is preventing the phone from sleeping and you should be getting a pretty easy 1 day out the battery at the very least in moderate use.

How have you TuneIn setup.
As general when you press pause rather than stop, itt continues to record that station and is always active. Iif you go into the app settings and turn off 'autostop recording' which should be defaulted to 8 hours - turn this to never and try again to see if it improves. I've seen TuneIn eat battery life on other devices where ths happens (people thinkits stopped when its just paused and recording away in the background...
That's possible ^^^^, however if he was just to hit exit on the app it should stop the services. That and really want to be sure, swype it away in the multitasking section.
Can try Betterbatterystats in the play store as a lot of people rave about that.
Also make sure Google Now is disabled. It sucks battery life like no other. Awesome tool, however to much drain on the battery.

Would be great if you posted a picture of the battery use. You must have a wake lock.

Guaranteed that you have horrible wakelock issues. Rogue apps, bad settings, and anything in between could be the cause.
I can go to bed with the phone fully charged and, 8 hours later, wake it up to see it's still at 100% (mobile data, GPS, WiFi left active.)
Once I'm bored of constantly picking it up and playing with it (i.e. get back to standard usage patterns) I get the feeling it will likely run to 3 or more days between charges. Won't be this month though

The Same happens with my phone.
The battery is really good. It feels like it is the battery time of my Onex x3

Well there are various reasons for this..Maybe an app that drains much battery not leaving cpu to sleep.You can download better battery stats and see the wakelocks and the cpu states that your cpu runs on.. You may also need a battery calibration.It will not increase the battery capacity of course but it will eliminate the faulty battery stats bin that tells the system the battery percentage.You may have for example 25% battery left and your device may show 2% or even close.
I assume that you do not have wifi always on, screen on for hours or using mobile data..The consumption of battery is huge.

how ? when u first got the phone ? did you turn it on or did you charge it?
Worth dialling *#*#3424#*#* and doing the battery test, although as everyone else has said it's more than likely an app.
I had a sgs2 over 2 years,rooted and optimized in battery usage, i was already happy. Now with the htc one it's a completely new experience....already now after a few days,with root but still no tweaks i get 60% left at 11pm!before the sgs2 was empty...can't wait
For fiture developement!!

Download Better Battery Stats, leave it for a day and then upload a screenshot of your wakelocks. My battery is easily lasting the day (ended at 11pm at 76% yesterday)
Same-ish problem.
Hey i'm having a similar problem,
I bought the HTC One (silver, 32Gb) A couple of days ago and the battery isn't even lasting a day with what I'd say as Medium/light usage. I do leave Mobile data on so i can get Skype/Facebook/line calls ect instantly, but i assumed that's normal.
I just left my phone alone for an hour with the screen off and it lost 4%, could this be a battery defect?
Are you telling me to get over a days usage, i have to leave mobile data turned off and only turn it on when i want to use Skype ect?
I saw a post above that one guys gets 3 days of usage with Mobile date, Wifi, etc all turned on. Is this the norm, or does he have a super hero battery?
I see the general consensus is to download "Better Battery Stats" and send pics of wakelocks, but Is there comparable app for free that will do the trick, as i don't have money currently on my English account.
Thanks to all those taking time out of their own lives to help others.

Uh.. Tune in radio playing is a wake lock.
You XDA'ers automatic response system.
Post your battery stats here:
So far I am able to get 4 days with a single charge if I keep the display off and turn on only when I want. I also keep the brightness to 2.

Almost 4 days here but have a tendency to charge when reaching 20% to avoid going flat wrong time
Usually get around 3-4 days. With brightness at 5 and the gesture on. But I turn it off when I go to bed

Got with first charge 6.5 days. 3 days (only watch) and 3 days (watch/pedometer/heart rate and so on). Got about ~10% battery left yet. With brightness at 4 and no hand gesture.
65% battery left in two days of use. (i guess 4-5 days in single charge)
brightness level 4
motion detect on.
3 Days to 20%
Motion on
Brightness:2
Notifications: Hangouts, SMS,Gmail, Woot
how do you set it to sleep mode ?
I'm only getting 18-22 hours when paired with my Galaxy Note 3. What is wrong? Brightness is 3 and motion is on. Just a few notifications activated.

Samsung apps version or mix of version, I sorted that by removing every bit of samsung apps on my z1 and then reinstalled only GearManager1_2.apk. Now back to 3-4days depending on the time I spent on the phone with the gear
my phone use is here and there calls, if i have along time call im using my phone.
also notification: facebook, skype, whatsapp etc..
after 7pm when im home i'm switching the phone off and open it at 7am in the morning. brightness X 4, motion detect on, all of that is 4 days plus in use single charge.
my phone is s4 zoom.
I'm at about 75 hours or so (just over 3 days) with 40% battery still remaining. I have text, email (push from Exchange), phone, Google and Skype notifications being pushed to the watch. I'm using the weather clock face. Brightness is at 3, the gesture is off. I don't turn the phone or watch off at night, although the screen isn't being used all night because I'm sleeping.
I guess my watch is defective then. I can't even get it to work for 24 hours. What could it be? My Note 3's battery seems unaffected, though.

Not sure if this is really hardware issue. Mine went from 100% to 20% in about 5 hours. Samsung replaced as defective without asking any further questions. However the new one behaves similarly. This morning 100% to 88% in mere 40minutes... Then I switched off BT on phone - no change on Gear battery level in the next half hour.
So I suspect this is rather something on the phone. I started discovery with Samsung customer service. I will see what happens.
Any idea from anyone? I have a Note 2.

I know for a fact that I can barely squeeze 2 days out of the battery (so compared to 3 or 4 days easy for others, seems like something is wrong). If I turn bluetooth off, it seems like (based on 10 hours or so with it off) that I could go over a week, so I'm guessing it has something to do with my phone's bluetooth connection or a bug with something on the phone. I have an s3. Definitely let us know if they find out what the problem is.

As an Idea, as I had an issue with the gear 1, go to the gear 1 forum and get the 1.6 version of the gear manager and see if that helps. I am using the latest gear manager with the note 2, but I had major issues with the gear 1 and installing 1.6 fixed the issues.

I just got the 4.4 update from Sprint yesterday (for my S3). So far, I'm losing less than 1% per hour even with watch connected to phone. Looks like I'll get 3+ days on this run. Problem might be solved! (I'll report back once I've had a few days like this).
Paired with Galaxy Note2.
Brightness on 5.
I don't use the pedometer or heart rate features.
Most of the time I can get almost 2 days.
I've found that some of the watch faces and other apps on Samsung Apps can be real battery hogs.
For example... I tried using "Roman Watch Style" from the app store and couldn't even get a full day out of it. After uninstalling, it immediately went back up around 2 days.
At the end of the 2nd day I usually have around 7% left.
Battery life seems to be fairly consistent. At the end of the 1st day I'm usually just over 50%. By the end of the 2nd, it's borderline dead.
When i first got my phone and enabled stamina mode, it showed that i had 3+ days estimated battery time left. But after recharging it, it never shows that much battery time anymore. I had to reset the phone to get it showing 3+ days again. Anyone knows why?
It's just speculation, but I think it may use your past data to compute the time left. So at first it shows > 3 days, but if you use your phone a lot and it typically lasts only one or two days it will adapt and show that instead.
