LOOL am sorry was sleeping, yes my battery was full but that because I took that screenshot after I plugged my phone and charged from 1 to 100 straight but the previous cycle stats was still ther..
Try it yourself, charge your phone and before taking it off the charger you will still have thae last cycle details and graph in usage..
And if you look at the screenshot, it clearly says "Battery used by the display and backlight" .....

I was amazed by my battery because I watched two movies and surfed xda and websites also!
If only I can get rid of those "suspend" and "events0" I would be a happy camper

Actual phone usage is pretty low though, I've gone as high as 7 days w/ just SMS and a few calls and wifi usage of less than 1hr.

How do you get your Android OS to be so low. My note is always around 25% to 30%. Do you think I have something running that's draining my battery? I do know that I'm not getting anywhere near the battery life you guys are saying you are getting.

he could have disabled all animations, force-closed processes, etc.
I have bluetooth running eight hours a day, streaming music for four to five of those to it, at least three to four hours of reading massive PDFs (textbooks), ppts, and word documents, WIFI on whenever available, etc.
I've gotten 10-13 hours without too many issues. The 10 was with a LOT of screen time, wifi or data running always, and bluetooth running always.
It also depends how you charge your battery. I make sure to fully charge my battery, and then run it into the GROUND (eg note powers off completely) before I plug it back in. Every time. You get maximum capacity that way, there's a name for this, but I can't remember what.
Anyway, battery 101. Kill processes, disable unneccesary services, use WIFI when you have it, disable everything you don't need, disable sync if you want/need to, disable gps, animations, and especially use minimal screentime. I don't see why the note wouldn't pull at least 36 hours if it was left in airplane mode the whole time.
Actually I was just watching movies and listening through bluetooth, thats why I don't have other processes eating my battery but I didn't do anything special..just straight 6 hours of watching movies using mobo player..
But I noticed that using mobile data to surf the net would drain my battery faster, so try to use wifi whenever available..
Everything about my setup is stock, only de-odexed to manually install my language..
Also noticed that when my phone left idleing, there will be Android OS drain in my battery usage, wigh "suspend" and "events0" showing in BetterBatteryStats but I still didn't figure out how to solve that..

Hi guys, I'm new to this part of the forum coming from a Desire S.
The Desire S forum was a really nice place to be, so I decided to set up an OFF-TOPIC thread. It turned out very well, and is a great place where I made friends and learned tips and advice for both my device and other things in life.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1611085
I would like to try it here. I hope this thread will also help to cut down the number of OT post in other threads. (as it has done it the Desire S forum)
Basically, this thread serves as a place for any discussion, for fellow GSII users to hangout! Feel free to talk about anything!
So let's go! How about we start by introducing ourselves?
Great lets get started
Great idea...Oly, good to to see you're up to your good work else where....let's hope this bunch appreciate it as much as I know we do/did.

hmmm. well, tbh, not that much high-end anymore. but mid-high,yes,yes indeed.
The only thing i cld complain really at this point is the screen (just resolution, not colours, viewing angles or anything else)
The gpu is still a beast, you can see that if Sammy choose to put same GPU in s3 which is high-end device.
CPU,very nice indeed, no need to talk about chipset anyway, its gonna hold well for solid ammount of time to come.
Anyway. Im 25yo Croatian male, nice to meet you all fellow XDA members.

Perfect thread to talk about what happened to my phone this morning.
So I'm usually not the guy that charges his phone overnight and takes it off the charger the next morning, cuz I get paranoid something is gonna happen.
Well I fell asleep last night while the phone was on the charger. When I picked up my phone this morning it was FREAKIN HOT (I mean hotter then it has ever gotten before) and the battery was drained pretty low.
Turned out that my AC adapter went defective overnight and fortunately I had a different AC handy to replace and troubleshoot.
Crazy thing is that everybody else I know charges their phone overnight too. IDK maybe it's just me *sigh* lol...

I too charge my phone over night and don't experience that problem. Although, once it did happen to me when I had my xperia ray(never Sony again), but that was due to keeping it under my pillow all night while charging.

A quick question to you guys:
On average how much screen on like do you manage on your phone with around medium brightness?
I'm getting just over 3 hours, but I'm wondering if I should be getting more. My battery is 1 year old already, so it may have already lost its full capacity.
I'm also swaying between the Anker 1900mah and Official 2000mah. Ideally i'd like to keep the same battery cover.
Any thoughts?

Hi guys,
This is my first post here in XDA. I'm a noob or, what sometimes is the same, a demon or something...The funny thing is that i've been a member for a long time (2007) but having nothing to say, just read...so it'd be kinda odd if someone's call me noob...hahahhaha
Being using a Galaxy S2 for a year and I think is one of the best smartphones ever made. Even a year later remains one of the most powerful...and with CM10 I'm happier of having it...
I've read a lot of threads and discussions, and it's nice to read and write in a thread like this.
Thank you so much olyloh6696.

Not sure what I expected I guess. I found these glasses much more fascinating before I got them. People stare at you when you show up with them. Some are intrigued, some want you to remove them with dealing with you. What I have found is they are a better attachment to my S5 than my Gear 2 watch. Love the heads up text display, etc.

I thought this was a bad idea to do with newer batteries? Notably, either keeping the battery charged at 100% for extended periods (some devices charge to 100% and then let the battery drop down to like 97% then re-charge), or draining it all the way down to/near 0%.
I have heard that as well. In the case of Glass, I got decent battery life the first day or two, but on the third day I took it off of the charger and it reported <10% a few minutes later. Half an hour later it shut itself off and I plugged it in and left it plugged in for the day. I haven't had an issue since; it now lasts me from 5am to 10pm every day.
Others in the Explorers forum report the same "fix" and swear by it.
Be careful to leave it on when charging
Glass, like other devices that use the same technology, need a few full charge-discharge cycles to reach full battery lifetime.
Glass also has the crazy property that they will not charge if they are completely turned off and shut down. Make sure the LED is flashing when you expect them to be charging!
actually, how long you can use that google glass? it suposed to be a day without charging?
I got 4 pairs of glass for $50 because of the home try out program lol. The battery life isn't good however at the same time it's mainly because you can't shut off wifi or Bluetooth without installing glass control

I know that Google initially estimated a battery life of 1 day for 'typical' use, but I suppose that can vary considering not everyone’s "day" is typically the same As we all know, many hi-tech devices, can have a touchy battery life, some which seem surprisingly low for this day and age and some that hold up rather well, regardless of how often we use them. So perhaps it could possibly depend upon the initial charge and/or overall treatment of the device and battery? Also, I believe they did an upgrade to the operating system earlier this year that included improving the battery life, and from what I’ve heard, it’s a bit better than it was before!

Here are a bunch of pictures I've taken to try to help get a better idea of what the watch looks like. I'm currently on the road for work but I'll be able to answer more questions and maybe do an APK pull for y'all.

I picked one up in Tokyo a couple of days ago. So far I'm not massively impressed.
It looks amazing and is really responsive but the battery is pants. I think I got 7 hours yesterday and that was with minimal use.
I'm hoping it settles down once I've had it a while.

I found switching WiFi off helped loads. If your watch has a connection to your phone it can use the Internet from there. So it makes the WiFi redundant and just draining battery looking for a connection. I'll only switch WiFi back on if I ever forget my phone.
Also I had the brightness set to 1. Even in bright light it's never been a problem.
hey, would you please tell me what does it say under Settings->about->model?
a picture would be ideal, but don't forget to hide your serial number if you post it
