Battery problem

Ive recently noticed that my battery runs out very quickly, it is totally drained in 2 hours with moderate to heavy use (excluding gaming)
I though it was the rom at first but I'm not totally sure because the battery used to make to through the day but now it totally sucks
I want to know if its the rom or battery, I'm currently using 3.0 SDSL

Must be hardware related problem I think. But you could backup and try a different ROM..

Well I've had the battery for 2 years now, so maybe I need a new one,

Did you try Battery Caliberation?

Post your battery status here

Hello folks,
These kinds of threads can be found for other phones but I think we haven't such thing here for our beloved GN.
So please take a screenshot of your battery status from android setting and uplaod it here. Especially from the screen on time.
In addation please mention your ROM and kernel and their versions so we can have an accurate comparison and nice statistic pool.
Cheers,

Guys these stats do not mean much. I really like the idea of the thread and would like to see what stats other people are getting with their battery life. But all I can see are stats posted when the phone is hardly in use.
On screen time is all in bits and pieces. Can someone post a picture of their stats with their AWAKE and ON SCREEN tabs at full blue - meaning it was being used constantly. Those stats would mean alot more than these. Cause anyone can not use the phone at all and post their stats up having easily more than 1 & 1/2 day of battery.
I for one do not have screen shots but I do recall not getting more than 4-5 hours of on screen time.

I know this isn't long, but this is heavy usage screen on 75%of the time, I think it's awesome battery status for this.
And I still have 54% battery.

It will also be a good idea for people to post how old their battery is... My old battery can barely give 2 hours screen on time while the new battery gives more than 5 hours screen on

I know how you feel man. You are not alone :crying:

How about charge time? I'm on Alliance Alpha 3 (based off XXLSA) with Robbie's and Ficeto's TWRP kernel. I was at 10% and plugged it into AC 6 hours ago. I'm at 98%! Fuuuudge
EDIT: It was my cable. Disregard.

Can we post our marital status here?

you shouldn't have a problem downloading a 1 or 2gig movie within 30 minutes to an hr, it'll drain your battery half way regardless of kernel though.

If you're worried, you should stop pirating or Johnny Law will be on your rear. jkjk
To answer your question, just use it without connecting to the charger. Also, calibrating the battery is not necessary either.

So draining the battery regularly doesn't hurt it?
So in conclusion connecting the charger hurts the battery?

Keeping your battery at 100% all the time (letting your phone plugged into the charger) is literally the worst thing you could possibly do to the battery besides overheating it.
If you want to get the longest lifespan out of the battery, keep it between 40 and 80% and under 40°C (which is why the N4 starts throttling itself at 38°C)

Of course it will. It's a battery. They only have so many charge cycles. You can always buy another. With a little effort the battery can be swapped out.

That's right anyway I just wanted to know the least way I can damage the battery while downloading. ..do u have a suggestion

I can't give you advice on how to make piracy less damaging to your phone. That's against the rules.

I just had my lawyer answer a ~1800 euro claim for some song that had magically found its way into my torrent downloading software. He charged me 208€.
Don't download pirated media..

He never said he was downloading copyrighted material... plenty of legal Ubuntu torrents available and last time I checked that's not piracy

Anyway thanks all for your answers
So in conclusion
I should download until the battery drops to 40% and then recharge it
