Show off your best battery life! - Nexus S General

Grab your battery stats and show it off!
Here are mine on a good day (see attachments elow). I am also running oICSv41 with the GladOS v2.2/2.3 Kernel.

I heard rumours of poor battery life...

is there a native screenshot feature? if not what did u guys use to take screenshots. i dont want to root this phone.

Screen capture on ICS: Hold Volume down + Power
On CM9: Hold Power and select Screen capture from the menu

How is that possible? Stock ics/kernel?

I got pretty decent life. ddnt see the ics bug at all.
it had drained about 40% (60% left) after a day with some use and the whole night without charging.

As far as I know you have to root for it. Stock ICS seems to have it loaded into the system as far as I can tell.
And damn you guys have some impressive battery life. I think I'm gonna start tweaking a few things past just the kernel and the OC/UV settings. If I had a decent foot in developing I would work on a truly dedicated ICS rom with the best life I can get from it. The ones we currently have already do a good job as is.

Its possible when you don't do anything with your phone.
Charge it and don't touch it and you will get 24 hours or more

Here is what I got. Same as GB. I solved many issues with a hard reset.

All stock on ICS

4.0.3 ota, rooted.
I'm a light user, obviously

Best I've achieved is 22hrs with 4-5hrs of screen "on" time. No current screen shot, but I'll snag one once glados 2.4 has settled in with my sph33r v2 rom.

Wow, there are some pretty amazing graphs here.
Could I request that people attach their ROM and Kernel along with these screenshots? It would be nice if everyone could have the same battery life!
(Also, some of these pictures show that no voice calls are even made ...)

Yeah, everyone can get amazing battery life with wifi off and hardly any usage of the phone lol.

True, but if you looked at some of the graphs you will notice many users that posted were actually using their phones. One user had 35 hours up time with plenty of battery left with "Screen On" at the top of battery consumption, probably correlating to greater than 2.5 hours of screen on time.

Unless they post screen on time it really doesn't mean much and you are just guessing. People please post screen on time along with the discharge graph.

Fair enough. But, if you find a screen shot of battery use with <5-10% remaining and greater than 25% 'Screen On' usage that isn't near or over 150 minutes of screen on time, please send me a pm. I've looked throughout these threads at many battery graphs and haven't seen one with that high of screen usage without the screen being on for nearly 2.5 hours or more- (with the exception of people getting dismal battery life of course, i.e. 2 hours and 90% drained, etc.).

Battery problems? Google lies?

So I found this great app that tells me how much life I have left on my battery. I find that with my phone I can hardly go pass 16 hours with MODERATE use yet everyone here is bragging about easily passing 30hrs with HEAVY use. So I'm asking you guys, to please, download this app called BatteryTime Lite and post your pics or info here. Lets compare the results. Remember to set the level to 100% as shown in my pic below..
Also I herd the P/N might be related, mine is 99HKE002-00 F ..Guessing F means Failure.

i read somewhere that Stock and Cyanogen's ROM have display consuming a lot of battery... its fixed on enomther's and modaco's desire port...
On Cyanogen and Stock, Display consumes ~60% battery while on Enomther's and MoDaCo's desire port, display consumes 15~20% battery...

Thats what I herd too..thats why I'm also calling google a lier about saying this thing lasts 20hours with audio playback.
I'm curious, do they see a big improvement in battery when the display using 15-20% battery or its just numbers that were out a place to begin with?
I have identical figures. That combined with picking the N1 from a list says to me that these are just database figures rather than real world ones for your handset.
Root your phone and then install cyanogenmod and one of the under volted kernels. I usually get 24 - 30 hours battery life.
I just ran a test. I left the mp3 player on all night turn all the way on repeat. SO far after 8hrs of playing I was at 52%. If I'm correct, I just might be able to hit 18hrs...MMMM

No problems at all? no 3g issues?, battery only lasting a day or half? or touch screen issues?
Ok after 100% charge..the app is telling me that my phone will last 10hr:48min with moderate use....anyone thinking that the F on my P/N might mean battery sucker..
i have the exact same numbers as you. if you choose other instead of the phone type it asks you to enter your battery's info so it sounds like it only goes by the type of battery anyway. Not actual usage specific to your phone
My phone ends in an F as well. My battery life SUCKS right now. I have tried everything. The weird thing is it was good until I rooted my phone and applied Cyanogen rom. I've tried .2 and .3 for the Cyan rom's, all with bad battery life. I've tried wiping batterystats, fulling draining battery then recharging, task killer to wipe anything in the background, I even have a 2nd battery. No luck. I've also tried the undervolted kernal, but I didn't really notice a difference with it. (Only tried it for about a day so)
Bottom line though, something is going on. Something (I suspect with Cyan's roms) is killing battery life for some of us. I just wish I could figure out what it is.

Any chance you're using Weatherbug or Weatherbug elite (based on your SS)? After installing weatherbug and using the widget I got absolutely ABYSMAL battery life. I've purchased several other weather widgets and none had the effect that Weatherbug did for some reason. I removed it and battery life is back to normal again (moderate use and plenty of battery at the end of the day).

data is QUICK too... i mean quick
How long your battery lasts definitely depends on the apps youre using, I use my phone a lot, probably more than the average user, although i dont make many calls. My phone will easily last from when I leave my house around 530am till 11pm or so when I go to bed. I do use a task manager to kill stuff I dont need running every once in a while, I think it really just depends on how you use it. I use it for a lot of texting, surfing and news, and Pandora at work. I use wifi when im at home although ive never noticed it eating my battery. Yesterday I was playing Pandora over bluetooth on 3G for a little over 3 hours and it only took 5% of my battery. Im on Cyanogen 5.0.5.3, if that matters. With all that said I rarely go all day without charging it, I usually plug it in a bit at work and plug it in when I get home, but if I dont for whatever reason it easily lasts my whole day.

Thank You For Axura!

Just want to give thanks for this rom to whomever put it together. Master? Not sure I'm not to involved with the roms usually. But my Vibrant is an entirely different phone now. Seems to be using the hardware now to its potential. I can't get over how smooth the phone is. No more hitching or lag when you scroll around the screens. My programs all work better now. Stitcher Radio now loads up quicker. Doesn't reset or stop on its own. One little thing is that the orientation seems to be off. When I tilt the phone horizontally for example the image doesn't change over. Regardless, this is a small thing compared to the overall improvement of the device. I'm a newbie to flashing roms but now can't wait for the next one!

lol..thanks once again! I thought it was google syncing! Working fine now.
@azure100. Last night I went to plug in the phone for charging before going to bed. About 10pm. The phone read 71% battery. Kinda shook my head in disbelief. Especially since I get up at 5am! I didn't have my phone on a charger all day but I did have it USB'd to my laptop for a total of about 30mins moving some files and playing around. I'm sure it picked up some charge there? Still, it seemed like a lot of battery life left for that time of day. Usually I make it until about 8pm before the phone is fully out of juice. I'll keep a eye on it today. I won't hook it up to any charger or pc and report back.
Ok so I got three hours before it changed from 100 percent. Battery on this Rom is really good

I wake up at 6 a.m. and battery will last me until around 11 p.m. That is the longest I have let it run without recharging. Normal use. Ill have about 25-30% bat level at that time. I think this is pretty awesome. What I mean by normal use is I am making a phone calls and just checking email. No connecting to wifi etc.. Obviously there will be more battery drain then.
Charging seems to take a while. Even from the wall it just feels to charge slow. But not snail pace or anything. The battery is def lasting longer than before I flashed it.
I've been going back and forth between Axura2.2.5.9 and NeroV3 lol. To me, these ROM are both awesome. It really comes down to customization preferences and how each specific ROM reacts to your individual Vibrant. For my Vibrant, the battery is a little bit better on NeroV3. GPS is somewhat comparable. As a matter of fact, I've been manually customizing my Vibrant by taking bits and pieces of what I like from the Axura ROM and incorporating onto my NeroV3 core.
BTW: Is it just me or others simply do not care?????? In Axura2.2.5.9, the audible tone is not working on the dial pad even when the option is enabled in settings.

Ok. Two days ago I put a newly charged battery in at 3pm. It didn't fully die until after 10pm last night! So over 31 hours on one charge. Granted, Ive been sick so the phone hasn't been used as much. Phone calls. Email but no games, gps or anything like that. WiFi, Bluetooth on. Still, even with light use, the most I was getting is 15 hours thats it. So this rom looks real good for battery
Also want to throw a quick thanks out. I have really started enjoying this phone more than struggling with it. I might even hang onto it for a bit.

Have you tried Set CPU? With Axura and some custom underclocking profiles from set cpu along with managing my wifi/data via toggles on my homescreen, I am gettting really good battery life
I have been on Axura for over a week now and im consistently averaging 13/14 hours on a full battery charge with.moderate use. My current charge is in its 23 rd hour.
Im reluctant to flash any other rom coz I like this one so much but I still want to flash lol

I'm just gonna say...(Batt issues)

Before I was a behavioral therapist I worked for a small (lol) company called Applied Materials. And there I worked as a project manager. And what I learned there was the importance of following procedure, something most here seem to fail doing. I know I'm not the only one tired of seeing at least 2-3 threads a day pop up complaining how adryns or blah blahs rom is giving you horrible battery life. Have you stopped and thought for a second that it may have something to do on your part? Let me rephrase that, it is something to do with you. There are procedures before flashing...for example, flashing on a full charge is ALWAYS recommended. Second, wipe wipe and wipe again. I hope you don't wipe your ass the same way you do your phone. You stop to think for a second that flashing two themes a day isn't going to f things up with your battery if you're not following proper protocol? Why is it some people don't have issues and some do? It's simple, you f'd it up.
And for the record, the reason I posted this is to stress the importance of following the rules, bc when there really is an issue, it's like "the boy who cried wolf". We don't know which is legit and the other is just some kid too hyped to get that blackhole or superclean and cuts corners.
This thread drained my battery real bad.

The fascinate is proven to get better battery life then the droid amoung many other androids. I get maybe 16 hours of heavy use. I've been on this forum all day running superclean 2.1 with voodoo and still have 37% left...yeah that's some ****ty battery life for ya lol
Edit: maybe the majority of us getting around 15+ hours are just on some really good dope.
Droid? Which droid? Certainly not the Droid X, I had one and battery life was way better. I dont know anybody that gets more than 10 hours on heavy use. Sure you can get more if you dont actually use your phone as a phone.

Lmfao...really? Then why is my cousin who has an x charging his phone while im sitting here on his couch still posting. Before you post again take a peek...i've been trollon this forum for 12 hours now.
I followed everything to a T the second time around. My first time flashing superclean I was getting less than stellar battery life. Second time around I wiped data, cache, dalvik, and battery stats multiple times while on a full charge.
I've had my phone off the charger for 13 hours now and I am at ~60%. I haven't used it as heavy as normal, but even under heavy load I am getting much better battery than my first time around.
In "16 hours of heavy use", how much of that time was your screen active? You can look in Settings -> About -> Battery Use -> Display. "Heavy use" is a fairly imprecise term, since what one person might consider heavy use might be 'fairly light' to another.

I agree with your post, thought. Every time a new rom is released, the next several days are filled with complaints about the battery life. If you follow the procedure for resyncing the battery stats, your battery life will be back.

I get good battery life...so this isn't a fact for me.
The most important thing to keep in mind is battery life is SUBJECTIVE, as are the terms used to define usage (including "good" and "crap" as in the above). What one person considers "light/medium" use might be "heavy" use for someone else, and vice versa.

Not percentage, but time.
My Fascinate, currently, has been unplugged for 22 hours. Light/medium/heavy use is all completely and totally relative and opinionated terms. The amount of 'Time on' for the screen is a fair bit better way to show the use than just the meaningless 'heavy' & friends terms *. I've had my screen on for 55 minutes total, during those 22 hours, and am down to 42% battery life remaining. I wouldn't call the use I'd done 'heavy use', but someone else might consider that about as much use as they've given their phone in a WEEK!
I find my battery life is decent, but by no means amazing (I generally always make it through a day, 2 with light usage).
* Even then, it's a fair bit different if the time was spent looking at a single active pixel on the screen, vs playing with an augmented reality app that keeps the GPS, camera+flash, and wifi/3G constantly going, while also burning huge amounts of cycles on both the GPU and CPU... but one step at a time.

In my case it's mostly due to the fact that the phone never sleeps if GPS is enabled. When the phone doesn't sleep, it eats battery at an alarming rate even just sitting in your pocket. Once GPS is disabled in the notification shade, battery life is more in line with DL09. I'll be happy once we get some custom kernels, as a LV kernel seems to help my device a bit, but battery life isn't so bad anymore as to cause me to flash back to DL09.

Shocking battery life

yes well after I wiped everything to re install mikfroyo .4.62 to fix an error I kept getting something surprising happened.
At 6 am I unit my device each day. Now it is 11 pm and I had 49 percent left. That is with about 70 messages, internet browsing l, reading some questionablecontent comic, reading the articles on CNET, two calls. Bluetooth on for 3 hours, 3 short phone calls. Reading xda using this app. Sendong a few mms, and photo downloads.
Now Idk wtf happening to get this battery life but it is amazing.
I also use the throttle tweak, netarchy toatmods.4.3.4 more havs, battery increment fix, and have never gotten anywhere close to this kind of battery life.... ever....
Just thought it was amazing

First, you can never judge battery life until you have ran a rom for a few days. THe first few days will always be a lot better or a lot worse. Second, did you wipe battery stats? Or run the Battery Calibration app? If you didnt, you could be getting a false reading, and while your phone says 40 percent, it may be more like 10, and your phone could die any time.
Yes I did the full large techniques.and reset battey stats everytime I flash. and I have ran this donbefore as in I had an issue that I had to re flash the Rom. Nothing is different except I wiped everything this time LOL. I know the whole Rom and battery thing jot my first time flashing not the last.

when i was running cm 6.1.2, after calibrating everything and tweaking all my settings just right, on full juice that was about right. the phone sleep was awesome. I would go about 30-35 hours, but with light surfing, texting here/there and phone calls. maybe -maybe some gps but that usually lessoned my hours. under heavy usage i would get 18 hours or so. ...i miss that cm 7 doesn't seem to be anywhere near that.
I averaged 1day 9hrs on CM7...with 3 hours of playing emulators and some calls, ect.

It's just the cynic in me. But whenever I've seen people post ridiculous battery life like this with a stock battery, I immediately discredit it unless I see a picture of the battery usage.
And almost every time I've seen someone post the pics trying to "prove" their amazing battery life, they either
a) claimed to use a stock battery but were actually using an extended one (people went back through their posts and saw that they had extended
or
b) they had almost no display usage

a) claimed to use a stock battery but were actually using an extended one (people went back through their posts and saw that they had extended
or
b) they had almost no display usage

My post. Can't post the more up to date one [phone is backing up before rebooting] But it is possible. And I am using the stock 1500maH battery.

Well first off, I don't blame you for being skeptical, cuz I used to be too, untill I started getting it. And second, I won't say something unless I can back it up.
Setup:
Rom: CM7, latest nightly
Kernel : Tiamat 4.0.2 / 3.3.7 [both are the best, in my opinion, 4.0.0 breaks cameras, stay away from it.]
Undervolt: Viperboy's bsm -100mv extreme / bsm v2
I don't use setcpu or juice defender.

Well that is true but this is my first time. It is the same exact Rom I just had to re flash. And been running for three days now. It is shocking me to. When I get home I will try to get a screebshot of the batter stats to prove the off charge time and battery usage stats..

Look, if you can't keep track of time, that's your problem. I can well keep track of time and have fixed my phone to suite my needs, and able to get 3 hours of emulator play; if you device fails to perform to that task, not my problem. I'm here to provide information and share my stats, as everyone else he does. If you feel the need to post ignorant degraded posts because you may not believe something, then you sir are ignorant. I won't be putting anymore effort into this, so deuces.
How good a single person's battery life is irrelevant. Consistent results among the majority of users is what is needed. The Droid Charge needs to come to Sprint so we can get a day of heavy use easily.

Well I can definitely tell you're not trying to bash, you literally are doing it. Just cause you're not trying hard (or at all) to do it doesn't mean that you aren't doing it.

I will not have bickering over battery lifes or outrages claims on this topic..
It is unneeded,
It's really fascinating to me how some people can get over 24 hours of battery life
on the Evo. I don't think I have bad battery life while my phone lasts about 7 hours, but that's at pretty moderate use. Maybe if I just left my phone alone I can get over 24 hours, but what would be the point of that? Just my thought, everyone uses their phone differently so everyone is going to have different battery life.
And its true that the EVO 3D has a bigger battery, but it also has dual core processor and 3D among other things, so I don't think the results will differ much.
Poor signal strength = short battery life.

I believe the newer processor & graphics chipset use less power than those in the Evo 4G so there could be a decent gain in up time.

It seems that many people talking about battery life forget about the effects signal strength, especially if you have several services syncing data in the background.
Personally I find signal strength to be the largest variable in my battery life, not just on the Supersonic but on a Rhodium and a Kaiser as well. I have a horrible signal at my home (no carrier has a decent signal at my home) and with light usage my battery will be dead in 6-8 hours. When I am at work where I get an excellent signal I can spend 2-3 hours on the phone, and receive and review dozens of email and only use about 15% of my battery.
The moral of the story is that the same phone on the same rom with the same settings and usage can perform drastically different in different areas.

[GUIDE][CONDOR]Get the best battary life out of your device

Hi guys welcome to this thread and today I will tell you ways on how to get more battery life out of your device/1. don't constantly use you're device as this can lead to battery problems. Med-High use at max //2.If you're using a custom rom it can overheat the device so be warned, this can also lead to more battery problems, for example cyanogenmod. But the problems are fixed on that rom I believe/ /If you do these two things then you should be ok, good luck guys and try not to brick you're devices if you downgrade from lollipopto Kitkat/Hope this has helped and click the thanks button is this thread has helped you if you have had any issues on you're Moto E device. Reply if you have any other questions!!!!

-.-"
I don't understand? you did not say how to get longer battery life???
According to him its like turn off ur device and keep it still and ur battery wont drain..lol

This is your battery saving tip!!!
Ohh man we never knew that.
Great observation.
infinite battery life
Try using the infinate battery life script, if you are rooted. This can help increase the battery life by far. Hope this helps.
If you want more battery, root you're device and install a battery life script. If anyone wants to link I can give it to them. If this does not help and you done to root the device install a external battery life booster from the play store. Hope this helps if not pm me or reply. Good luck, if your device does not last at least a full day without charging turn down the brightness settings on the device as this will improve battery life. Another way would be to close any unwanted apps and 3g/wifi as this can drain battery usage. Hope this helps?
@ANDROmodderHD, I have just one "noobish" question: Why are you spamming? :'3
You are just asking us to just keep the phone on standby, turn off everything, even the apps we are using even those we need to be kept running and even turn off the internet, pull down the brightness to zero so that we can't see anything out under the sun. Then what do we do with the phone? Throw it away into the storeroom or sell it?
You could sell it if you like. I know where you are coming from but if you just turned up the brightness when you are using it then you can turn it down when you are not. This could help.

Don't you think the phone will be on standby with the display *off* when I am not using it? How will the brightness level matter then?
PS. You are damn interesting
I found out the battery lasts more then 24 hours when on a low to medium brightness setting. Even when you are not using it. Why don't you take a test to see if the battery would last more longer if it was on a higher or lower brightness setting when you are not using the phone. My battery life can last more than a day. So see for yourself.

I can't imagine how battery brightness can affect battery life when screen is off, I mean, no matter if you have brightness at maximum because screen is off.

C'mon man. We don't need to test because we know the phone is not stupid. What you are experiencing is called a "placebo" effect dude. Use your brains and don't act so noobish, no offense but this is getting irritating. I too made the battery last for 2 and half days when I did not use the phone at all because I was damn sick.
For improving battery life, try keeping the CPU clock to lowest (300MHz) when the phone is on standby. By default, the minimum freq. on LP is set to 787MHz unlike that of on KK which is 300Mhz. Just revert it back to 300MHz as min and set the governor to interactive. Or, ever heard of "deep sleep?" That's the best battery saving technique.

Exactly..!!
Stupidity ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ
Btw guys u can use GREENIFY app for saving battery and also xposed modules like Boot Manager.
Or flash a custom kernel which can sometimes make the battery last longer. This depends if you are already running cm or any other Rom with a custom kernel.
O.O
.... *slowly walks away*
Is this thread still going on??
Yes, if you want it to be on. Anyways this might be slightly of topic but is anyone running a custom rom. I know this may be off topic but has anyone got LP working on their device? Hope the update is good, what does everyone think about LP? Do you like it more than kitkat?
