Haha good one, whats that like 5 hours
On topic however i never get more than 72 hours b4 the phone either the market stops working or the menus lag up a bit then i restart it and then it's all fine.
My phone is rooted, with no real mods yet...

i can get up to 10 days,advanced taks killer does its job sometimes market forcecloses but it instantly comes back and works perfect. 2.1 generic with oneclick

I reboot once every 4 to 5 hours, I think I have OCD... just reboot for the hell of it.

I got like 2 weeks once...LOL

with 1.6 over 40 Days
I have one trick, name "Fast Reboot" (Android Market App) helped with menus lag and others
with 2.1 no stats for now because of: JIT, Optimiser, 2.1 Custom rom etc

just a weekend xD
use a lot of apps so they drain my battery really fast and sometimes it kinda overheat

Record is 214 hours, by that time the phone was slow as hell..
But that's on 1.6, trying to beak the record on 2.1

How you get those numbers!!! I can't even pass the 30 hours barrier I got a x10a with x10i firmware and rooted no hardcore mods
Please put more tips or how you get over 200 hours
Thanks

They're not talking about battery life.
If you're using the phone normally, there shouldn't be a reason to reboot unless you feel like cleaning out the RAM and starting fresh or there's something that can't be forced closed. With my old phone, I'd go months without turning it off. No reason to.

Oh I get it
Thanks
Btw can't remember when was the last time I reboot

Currently my uptime on 2.1 is 329 hours (not needed to reboot it since the initial upgrade to 2.1, still running prett snappily !)
Most interesting is the battery life, currently 48.5 hours and still 29% of battery life !!!! And that is with GPS, 3G, Pop email and widgets all running plus just played a 30 minute session of Angry Birds !

on 277 now.
but I reckon its.time to think about loading a custom Rom tho.
let's support the hard work.
peace

Stock atrix battery life sucks!

I can't see how this is one of the biggest batteries out yet after a full nights charge and barely using the phone it needs to be charged again by the middle of the day! I'm tempted to put my sim card back in my iphone... If any one has suggestions I'm all ears.
Oh and I've tried to follow steps to root/unlock etc. but I get errors from the rsnlite 5.3.? installer that it can't install.

Dude, there are like three complete threads here with solutions to battery problems. Why did you create another one?
Two of them are in the very same section where you created this thread.

Solution to your battery life woes can be had by putting your sim back inyour iphone. The atrix and instructions to use this forum seem to be above your level of using technology. Btw, my battery life has been awesome.
I voided my warranty.

Dude seriously if you battery sucks its because you dont know how to use the phone properly i get 15-24 hours with heavy texting facebook and browsing you dont need to complain about somthing its your own issue creating another thread is useless post up on the others not here

Holy snot I in no way was bashing the phone but was venting my frustration in how complicated it seems to be to get the battery to last...
I also posted in the general section not QA where I knew I would get bashed.
Im on stock 2.3.4 and it seems like (due to not being able to install the 5.3 lite program) I'm stuck running stock rom and can't make changes needed you guys can.

If you aren't comfortable flashing a new rom and/or freezing system apps, give the "2x battery" app a try. It certainly is an improvement to the stock battery life.

I really want to flash one but the program I need to install on my cpu won't install... I keep getting error msgs and no one has been able to give me a solution why yet.
I used to have an htc fuze and flashed roms almost daily so I have the knowledge but my machine isn't cooperating with the needed download to unlock.
Ill try the 2x battery, thank you for the help.

Could not disagree more. On my stock Atrix, I was getting just over 2 days usage (not just leaving the phone on the table) pretty consistently. Rooted and GB rom now, am getting a day and a half but am probably just getting the battery and rom used to each other lol

I don't get it, I had 80% 2 hours ago then went to 70% powered off and on and now I have 80% again?

Omg. You have a self charging battery!

Freezing apps would definitely help. Especially is you use "System Panel" to find the culprits.
Although from what I've heard isn't stock supposed to have better battery life than the custom ROMS?...

Ill take a look at that one to. Went to sleep with 70% and left wifi on all night to end up with 50% this morning. I'd say that isn't too bad.

Which battery saving mode are you using?...
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium

My battery lasts about 3h max, im living the dream!

@ccrows- It only lets me select the daytime mode due to not having the PRO version. And I dont see in it where I can freeze apps?
It actually seems to be charging faster as well. How long does it take you guys to get a full charge from dead on average?

Happy man

Manage to get my sg2 up to 5 days(battery wize) now with allot of tinkering and rom switching =)

5 days yeah, im assuming you mean 5 days on standby meaning you barely if ever used it in that time because it is practically impossible otherwise to get that amount of battery for 5 days.

Bang on man! think my worst case I have burned through a whole battery in a 4-5hours (chroot vnc gps etc) you know what though, it's not an iphone carry a spare!!! have a charger, have a battery pack charger, have a car charger!
the slightly more worrying factor for me is the power draw of some apps being greater than the draw on car charge.
I-on road for example probably the only truely useful AR app but V. battery intensive (gps and camera on full time go figure)

Lol - it doesnt matter how many days you got, i bet it was still only 3-4hrs screen on time like everyone else.

Battery question

This has probably been asked a million times but I have searched for an hour and cant seem to find exactly what I am looking for. I reset my battery stats because my battery life has been horrible the last week. My phone now says fully charged but the meter only shows 92. Should I let it die completely and recharge completely and then it will be fixed or will it just do the same thing? I am on ICS passion 10.6 if that makes a differnece. Ill be getting a slim 220o mah battery next week but this is still annoying me. I work 10+ hours a day and text my wife a lot and im only getting 13 hrs on the battery. About 100 texts, 30 min of web and I get auto updates via craigslist notification. GPS and wi-fi are off and my sync settings are for 1 time per day. Thanks all!

13 hours is pretty good. also, read this: https://plus.google.com/u/0/105051985738280261832/posts/FV3LVtdVxPT

I like to use an app called android booster u can go in and see exactly what app is draining the most battery that might help

Did you check out the stickied guide called "[How to] You Want Better Battery Life:::Read This" in the Vibrant Q&A section? There's some really good stuff in there. It won't help in solving your battery only charging to 92% issue, but it should help you get the most out of your battery.

Thanks all, my biggest issue I'd with the meter reading wrong, but I'll check out the better battery life thread, I can always use an improvement!

Try downloading "Battery Calibration" from the Market. When your battery reaches the max charge that you see possible, calibrate it, and reset your phone. Always works for me.

Battery works fine?
So no problems with this battery? I saw an 1800 but this might be better if it works and fits ok.

I should have it tomorrow or wed ill let you know about the fit

In the picture on the link you provided, that battery looks like it has four contacts, not like the Vibrant's three.
Some other pics I found on google images show that might be the case, too.
I am not holding out much hope that this battery will work for you. But if it does, please follow up and let us know.

I'm new to Xda but not to droid forums.

Thanks. That's where I got all my info before I switched to CM9. After week of using it, I'm switching back to stock. The main reason is because the battery life sucks even with all syncing off and touch sounds and a few other things done to try to conserve battery.
My battery was at 40% when I left work yesterday with only light Facebook and web browsing.
Also some apps not working very good on it is another reason I'm switching back.

yeah, wizard's MIUI has been the best for awhile now in terms of great battery life and full functionality. i've tried the ICS roms out there for the droidx but battery life was abysmal. i like having the latest android system but not if you have to trade great battery life for poor battery life.

I am running cm9 with a build date of April 24th (build number: IMM76D).
And i love it. It is super fast. the only complaint i have is that when long pressing home to get to the recent apps list it takes about 1-2 secs. Other than that its great. everything works except video (sometimes) and panoramic shots. the battery life isnt too bad. but i have had bad battery problems for a while.
