I used the phone mostly for Browsing and SMS while my girlfriend was playing for around an hour .. I also watched Youtube Videos and listened to music. Everything is @ stock.

12h with 4h screen on? That doesn't sound so great to me... Right now I'm running 2.3.5 (previously kh3 with nimpho 2.1.3) and cpu at 800 max and I used to get about 2 - 2,5 days on a charge...

I also get more than 2 days with one charge.
But I don't get more than 4 hours of screen usage @ custom roms.

That's not my experience I get a day plus on custom rom + kernel as opposed to 14 hours ish on stock. I don't think it's possible to get much more than 4 - 4.5 hours of screen on time regardless of which rom you use.

App drainimg battery?

Bought the vibrant 4 days ago. Flashed it 2 with the Obsidian ROM. Getting great battery life from it too.
Had some free time on my hands yesterday and went on an app downloading rampage. In two hours of light use today my battery has dropped 40%!
How can I identify the source of the power loss?

Media hub always seems to start itself and does drain some. Have you reconditioned your battery yet? I'm on obsidian v2 and this is where I'm at so far.

19 hours with 23% left, not too bad. I downloaded a boat load of apps, installed even more from backup, played a little bit of angry birds and have been streaming Pandora for the past 4 hours.

I did. Took about 9 hours of constant use to drain the ***** too! Exactly why I dont get what's draining the battery. Task manager and Services seem normal as well. Battery usage itsthe same as yours... :\ FML
What I do to recondition is charge to 100% and keep it plugged in for 5 minutes longer... unplug for a minute or two, plug back in, charge til full again and keep plugged in for a few minutes longer. Continually doing this until it takes awhile for it to get below 100% unplugged. This seems to work better for me than the charge, clear battery stats, discharge etc.. and doesn't take nearly as long.

i'll give it a shot... she went down to 11% in a flash. lets see whats up
System panel is a great app to monitor how much CPU an app uses.

Tytungs NexusHD ICS Power Consumption Issues

On a full charge with no wifi, no sync, lowest brightness, no gps etc I'm getting roughly 1 to 2 hours of talk time and maybe a total of 4 to 5 hours battery life with the screen off. I pretty much have to travel everywhere with a charger and its starting to drive me nuts.
Is it worth it to switch to another distro ? Anyone else having this issue ?
Are you on the latest version? I'm using version 2.3 and it lasts more than 24 hours on a single charge.
I guess you have to replace your battery, mate
wow ... 24 hours :-.
Can you post your statistics ?

These numbers are off btw due to the constant charging every few hours.

What kind of drain are you getting in terms of mA? Download current widget and check this. It should be 4 or 5 mA in standby.

Do u use any app2sd script? in 2.0 some people got an extremly high battery drain, because of app2sd (~50-70mA on Standby). Maybe try to reflash u're rom without any app2sd and check the drain again.
Sorry for the late reply, guys. I've been busy lately. Well, here is a screenshot of my HD2 after a day of moderate use running TyTung's NexusHD2 ICS v2.3

Ok.
Stock ROM I imagine?
This is pretty cool. I've yet to break the 100+ hour threshold on my NS4g because I'm always flashing or letting my phone die

Nice. some more info about rom, kernel and usage would be nice. Thanks!

Yes some info about ROM and other stuffs , though am pretty sure I will end up formatting and trying a new ROM in a month but with my ZTE Blade I found my stable ROM a long time back so this kind of uptime was normal in that still not so on Nexus.
i use stock rom and kernel on 2g and auto brigteness. (screen shot update on first post)
GG man GG! I havent seen this since some awesome bloke did it with oxygen 2.3.2
I see 2 days in the screenshot hmmm

Stock rom's are actually stable. I'm sorry to tell you guys, but that's nothing impressive. Two of my coworkers have their running since they got updated to JB, and they're i9020a. Admittedly they are used as work phones but the point still stands. What is impressive is finding a custom ROM or a ROM with tweaks that can do this.
Many times custom roms are unstable, but there also stable roms..
Perhaps people who uses custom roms, like to flash and try new roms, change kernels and so on. So it's obvious that uptimes are lower than a user that doesn't change anything for 41 days (1000 hours)...

Q- is this good battery life for 4.2.1? Screen cap attached.

Updated to 4.2.1 with new 32 gig nexus 7. I've heard lots of people have been getting bad battery life with 4.2.1 update. Is mine good or bad? Attached screenshot.
Thanks

It really depends on your screen on time. I'd say getting 5-7 hours of screen on time would be considered good battery life.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I personally wouldn't consider that good battery life, however I'm spoiled in a sense. I never kept my tablet stock, modded from day 1. But I'm sitting at 85% right now with 4hrs screen on browsing web and xda and it was fresh off the charger. I also get over a week of standby time when it sits.

Yes which ROM and kernel are you using? 4.2.1 seems to have bad battery life. Mine is just rooted

Battery usage NEAT LITE XWLSS vs CM10.1

I've tested battery usage on CM10.1 i NEAT LITE XWLSS, Below screens which show that CM10.1 use less battery than XWLSS with same time and phone usage.
CM10.1 vs XWLSS
Deleted
Interesting, but I would like to see which apps are using the battery on each rom.
For me on CM10.1 mobile standby uses more of a % than anything else
i've changed to Neat Lite cause the battery drain on CM10.1 was really bad. maybe seeing the apps used and the % of drain is possible to analyze better this information

Battery drain in CM is not so big.
Something is wrong.
What s the point of this thread? Battery life? I get 3 days with Slim bean +3 hrs of screen ON time. It all depends on how u use!! More apps more battery drain...
Dont just say u get 3 days if u use data for just 10 minutes...please use data 24hours...
