Fantastic
show me your screen on time pls. i can do that with stock battery too with low use. 37% doesnt look like you touched your phone much..
that's pretty bad. I can go as long as 3 days with stock battery
That is indeed easily done with a stock battery and stock Samsung or CM7 rom and with moderate use.
Would help if you actually used your phone, anyone can get double that on standby on a normal battery
Besides, shouldn't this topic been placed in the Accessories sub-forums?
blimey and i thought that was good. Onoly get aboout 24hrs with the stock battery....ok i'll crawl back into my hole....

You don't have to do that but people here are much more interested in how much life you get with heavy (screen on) usage, me included. How much was it, if you dont mind me asking?
im not a heavey user, but with medium useage, 15+ downloads, surfing the net on and off through out the day, emails through out the day, f/b updating and numerous texting and a few calls.....i suppose for my normal use on stock battery i got just over 24hrs use so the extra 300Mah is more than welcome. Plus i can slip the original stock battery in my pocket when i go out just incase i need extra umph. Oh well im happy with it...please move to accessories if i have posted in wrong forum..infact MODS if you want to delete this thread then please be my guest....
OK... realistically though, screen on time is the real indicator, along with usage patterns (were you web browsing, gaming? what games? how bright was the screen etc). Screen on time can be found out by Settings > About Phone > Battery Usage > Display = Time on (just in case you weren't aware).
How much did the battery cost?
Oh... and what theme are you using (I'm liking those icons at the top).
besides the screen on time you should also consider the data volume transfered via radio, that kills my battery even faster than the screen although i'm living in a big city with solid coverage...
There is already a big thread on the OEM 2000mah battery.

Hey, I just want to share my battery experience.
Here in the forums we hear a lot about problems. I ordered my phone almost 1 month ago and it just arrived last Thursday. During this whole month I read a lot about battery issues and I was afraid of having it too.
For my surprise it's been wonderful.
So, I want to post this positive experience to calm anyone that's anxious about this problem, as I was three days ago.
I wrote what happened in the screen shot, but basically I'm always connected via wi-fi or 3G, a little bit of web, games, downloads, apps and messages, and only about 3 or 4 calls (it's the feature I use less)
Thanks

Thats pretty sweet. I experienced great battery life for the first 2 days i had it but after putting loads of widgets and etc on it, my battery life isnt so great :/. That damn android os taking up the majority of it.
yeah, the only push notification i use is whatsapp.
as I work with my gmail, facebook and twitter open all day, I don't need their push notification in my phone.
I think it helps too

well, I used as I will use in my real life.
I don't spend 6 hours looking to the screen.
as I said, I work in front of a laptop 12h/day...
My conclusion is that the battery responds my real life needs.
This was not a heavy performance test.
Check out my battery usage and I still have 8% left.....the d stand for day, just so you know.

the airplane mode really helped it. i'd love to see your results with just leaving it regular during the night.
Here is mine with a light usage. Large drops are reboot or GPS. Have I broken the record for the longest battery life?
Look that.....

If you take a look at his screen, you will see that it seems his screen was on a lot more than your (around 2 times more ?) but consumes a lot less.
So it seems his battery life is realy great... but we don't know how he uses his phone.
Instead of bigging up your ego's, explain how you got that battery life, you guys are nearly as bad as the dicks that brag about quadrant scores, streamline your uselessness.

Without any usage data, the OP is useless. With light use and sporadic data, my battery level is down to 65% after 48h which I consider great. Stock KE2.

Agree useless ... need more information to give any sense.
On my not rooted, non freeze, no Juice Defender, stock KE2 (upgraded to KE7 yesterday) phone:
+1 day heavy use
+2 days medium use
+5 days light use (mainly standby)
man I am tired of this battery screenshot showing off threads..
if someone uses 3 hrs of screen awake time out of 53 hrs..its the same thing as my battery lasting one day with 6+hrs of wake time..
everyone just bull***ts 1+day battery screenshots and fills ups the forum like junk..
some1 shud moderate this..

i am very satisfied. my daily use for this phone is like this.
Wake up unplug the charger. put on my bluetooth so it connects to my car 40 min ride to work while listening to music from my phone to car. while at work make a tonne of calls, whatsapp, text, sometimes game, use a app called filmon to watch tv, reconnect phone to car and come back let my little sisters play dodgeball for an hour or so and then when i get it back it says connect your charger 10 percent or less left..
Best battery wise phone i ever owned in awhile.. I know this cuz i came from a LG Optimus 3D and oh my god 4 hours battery max even on standby is shyt..
Edit: oops didn't mean to quote you hit the wrong button lol..
My battery sucks. Even my s3 battery was much better. I get 1% drop like every minute and its not like I use it that much, no games, mosly whatsapp and facebook and all that
I am curently on wanam lite 1.8 wich is supposed to have the best battery and with perseus kernel. I have i9500. Please help me

14 odd hours is pretty decent battery life? Even with the steep appearing drain. I can only average 10 hours and that's without touching my phone at all. if i moderately use it, it lasts 5 hours tops.
You're probably seeing a steep drain through sync apps, screen brightness, or a combination of a few other small things. If you're that worried about it, download better battery stats and monitor your phone for a few hours to check no apps have gone rogue.

These are my battery stats: Link
Obviously battery analysis is relative to the handset and user, but I honestly think your stats are above average.
Collect a battery stat of one full cycle and compare that, so the charging doesn't skew the results.
@ you dude: it could be yr wifi that causes yr battery to drain, by looking at yr stats.
anyways, get better battery stats like what ChrisRHolstein mentioned to look for the culprits.
and not forgetting, do a 2-3 battery discharge cycles.
So check this post out:

TL;DR - this guy claims (and seems to have posted screenshots of) nearly 8 hours screen-on time, fully stock.

He says he's getting almost 8 hours of screen-on time at 40% brightness and he's completely stock -- and your response is "so what"?
I am not sure how it's possible, what the guy is claiming.

yup, so what? what does his battery life have to do with my life? nothing!
battery life is completely personal, depends how you use the device, what you install, your setup, and your signal quality.
As long as battery life isn't completely horrible, I can live with whatever I get. I have a 13,000 mah portable charger, a car charger, a charger at home, and one at work. Not worried.
I never got 4+ SOT with all kind of battery saving techniques.
Unfortunately it's really easy to fake this. Not saying he's been dishonest. I applaud his tweaking if it is legit

Why would you want to partialy disable and cripple a near perfect device for another hour of screenontime? Realy, ever heard of powerbanks
