Could too enlighten me further what exactly is the 1500 battery?
Pooped from my Samsung Vibrant using XDA app...
Dont mind the skidmarks...

^ the stock battery is 1500...

Indeed I've gone overnight without a charge and heavy usage the next day and still wasn't 1/2 way depleted. I think the Super AMOLED has a lot to do with the awesome battery life.

"HEAVY usage" is relevant. I've had my Vibrant for 3 days and the battery is unimpressive to say the least. Hopefully, it will improve.

I am not sure what you have to do to prolong the battery life besides not doing anyhting, i.e. I was in the woods this weekend with no service at all, kept the phone in flight mode, used it to snap 3 pictures and 3 vids no more than 1 min each - the result is impressive - unplugged the phone at 7:30AM and by 4PM I had 70% left. Woohoo, I guess, the phone did nothing for 8.5 hours and only drained 30%.

I unplug my phone everyday around 6am and as of now, which is 7hours later I'm sitting at 92%.
What have I done on it as of today? 4 phone calls, 3 emails, took some photos.
Things I don't do all day.
Watch avatar over and over, let it idle on 3G for no reason, let it idle on wifi for no reason, turn off auto brightness.
I do have a regular schedule of charging.
I plug it in around 11pm turned off
I turn on my phone around 540am and leave it on the charger. I'm always greeted with the Its full unplug message around 6am.

how come your display use is only 8 percent mine is like 74 percent even tho i have it set on the lowest possible......

Thats saying out of all that time his phone has been on, his screen has been on 8% of the time.
If you use your screen a lot the number will be higher and I'm sure the more battery that would be used.

Great results so long as you don't need any network access for email accounts to work. That's not really an option for a lot of people. I have to have either 3G or WiFi on at all times to receive emails. SMS messages will come in over GSM so if that is what you do rather than email than you can turn off WiFi and 3G and still do texting.

Email works just fine over 2G (EDGE). I've found that setting it to 2G-only while keeping WiFi enabled (setting to stay on during standby) if in one location for a long time works better than keeping 3G enabled.

What is your build date? Find manufacturer date on box or inside phone.

I get good battery life... only gone down 1% since I unplugged it from being fully charged in 30 minutes with the display usage at 84% with GPS on.

yeah, tomorrow, i'll try to leave wifi and 3g on all day and come back with the result.

Checked my standby draining today. Lost 10% in 7 hours and 10 min. Look good, no ?
This is with: Google account sync calendar and contacts, push exchange email, 3g, auto sync
Must add that Tasker is also running and set to check everything to 30 min intervals

I have owned this phone since day one and am convinced that wifi is the biggest battery killer for me. I unplug it at 730am in the morning listen to live stream podcasts on the way to work and back (35 min commute). Make a few calls and texts, check all my normal websites on my breaks and when I get home at 630, I still have about 60%. In the settings I leave gps off and wifi on so when I get home its automatically on. By 930 the phone is at 15% so I am convinced its the wifi.
Having a screen this nice is worth the mediocre battery life, its actually better than my g1's battery life, so I am happy.

2800 Mah batteries on the way...

I'm not sure, I think it means of all the battery that has been used, 8% of it went to the screen. I would also like to know how you got that fantastic number! I usually have my brightness on minimum since I mostly use it indoors, and the screen is by far the largest consumer of battery power, even on days where I mostly listened to music (local, not net streaming) with the screen off...

I'm definitely getting better battery life out of this than my previous smart phones. Currently at 55% 1d20h unplugged. Light use, but still.

Battery drain help

My battery on my dell streak drains very fast. For example i had it plugged in until 100% in the morning. Then about an 1 hour and a half laater without using it that much it draimed to 67 %. The battery usage says cell standby 49% and the screen was 17% and those were the highest. From my nexus one i kno that cell standhy should not be that high. What is causing this to be so high? And why is my battery draining so fast?

Are you on1.6 or 2.1? mind was the same on1.6. Loads better on2.1. But I have also noticed that if you are in an area where 3g is poor it spend slot of energy trying to connect. I turn of data quite allot and it doubles battery life. BeforeI was getting less than a day now I get a day easily...... UnlessI have a load of widgets

Im using 1.6, then 3g then probably is the problem. Did u do anything to fix this problem?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

I had similar problem and deleted my task manager, as amazingly it was using more battery than running applications
It also stopped 'fancy 'widget from updating, even when told to ignore it
'Appbrain' market was also another major problem, i also think that 'smooth calendar' doesn't help; but i'm still experimenting.

thanks for reply, im using advanced task killer, maybe i ll try taking it off to see if it affects the battery in anyway

If you look in the battery tab you should see where your biggest power hogs are.
Mine happened to be media.
I had removed all the media from my SD card, forced redection etc and it still drained the battery.
Eventually, I removed all ringtones and music from the SD card and did a hard reset, ran it for a full day monitoring the battery usage. Now I'm adding a bit of music back to see if it was a bad media file that caused the indexer to draw power.

For me the battery usage is almost 60% cell standby...then every other small thing piles in. Why is the cell standby so high. I would think that the display would be the highest

I'm having the same problem on my streak that is running 2.1 in the USA.

so is there a solution for this problem??

Delete ALL your apps
Weatherbug also drinks batteries, but it's so good this time the good outways the bad

I havent purchased my streak yet, does anyone know if 2.1/2.2 will have better battery consumption on this device?
you guys are scaring me..lol

Nobody can say for sure what the upgrade with have until it's released.

My experience is thus......
Widgets drain battery
T ask managers drain the battery, I now use watch dog
The biggest one by far.... The data connection drains battery. Especially if its a poor connection.
So first thing is to turn of 3g etc when not required. I get a day easily. If I add widgets I get a day just. This is with location gps and sync turned on all the time

I was haviing normal smartphone battery life, about a day, then started having some trouble so I uninstalled some apps. But, I also let the battery die completely overnight then charged it full and am now on day three at 55%

Day 3 at 55%? Do you have a SIM card in your phone? Data enabled? 3 days and only 45% battery life drain is unreal. I have a fresh restore and my Streak barely makes it through the day still, no widgets installed, no network-activity causing apps running in the back, no task managers. The battery life on this phone sucks.

3G has been on the whole time as well as wireless networking and gps. Bluetooth was turned off until about noon today. For widgets I've got Weatherbug Elite, Jorte Calendar, 3G Watchdog, System Info and Latitude. The phone has had pretty light use for the last few days because I was doing some work around the house, but I did use it for the occassional game of solitaire and as my ebook reader at night as well as a few short calls.
Today, on the other hand, I've made several phone calls (more than a dozen, some longer some short), have had bluetooth on half the day, wireless enabled and a small amount of surfing. I went from 55% at 8AM to 19% at 9PM.
I think the battery meter was in need of proper calibration and that's why I did a full discharge and recharge. I'm as shocked by what's happened as anyone else.
Oh, I've also had Juice Defender installed both before and after the full discharge/recharge. Before I did that I wasn't even getting 12 hours out of the battery and that's why I tried it.

Dolphin browser HD, no sh%t, my battery went from approx 95% to 3% overnight. 9 hours

My battery life has been pretty good for me, when I go to bed it's at 100%, come morning after 2 alarms it's usually at 97%. I usually have 3G & Bluetooth on. Then throught the day I don't use the phone much besides the odd text and odd e-mail, with a couple games of Robo Defence, and come 9 in the evening I'm usually around 40% which is pretty good considering that I get crap signal at work (very weak signal with the occasional signal drop) and I know that usually uses a lot of battery.
However, the other night, I went to bed with 100% on the phone and some time between then and 6 hours of sleep, the phone had died completely. Couldn't turn it back cos there was absolutely no charge in it...need to charge it a bit before turning it on. Quite worrying as I use the phone as an alarm during work days (luckly it was the weekend) and I don't acutally know what caused the massive drain

Thought I'd share my experiences here with you guys....
I've had my Streak about 4 weeks now, it's a US Beta version, on TMO US so no 3G, only EDGE. The only widget that uses data is Weather & Toggle. I have had sync and Facebook sync turned off, and only use GPS sparingly.
I tried everything - I started turning off the data connection (3G/EDGE in the top right menu) and basically uninstalled every program I thought could be using battery. Still, it would go from 100% at bedtime to around 60% in the morning. I then tried Airplane mode. Still was draining! I then installed Juice Defender, and it actually went from 100% to 0 - it died that night! D'OH! The whole time is was a 50/50 mix between "cell standby" and "phone idle". It doesn't show any programs using battery. I also tried Drain-o-meter, but it didn't show anything else either.
Well here's what finally fixed it for me -- turn back ON the EDGE/3G data connection and leave it on!!!
I'm guessing there are things running in the background (my guess is Weather Toggle widgets but the drain was still there even after I uninstalled it), possibly system processes, that require a data connection. In my case, that fixed it... now it goes down from 100% to about 92-95% overnight. Now I just leave the data connection on and it's all good!
I'm not saying this will work for everyone else, but hopefully maybe there's at least 1 other Streak user who has the same problem.

I was not happy with my streak's batteryperformance either (stock ROM), until a recent discovery.. It seems the Mail client (not gmail or touchdown) caused a partial wakelock if I had set it to 15min intervals (have 2 accounts) Draining approx 10% every hour.
After I set it to sync every hour, I dramatically increased the battery time.
Today when I checked it I had only used 3% in 5 hours (normally it would be minimum 30% in the same time)
I suggest you check your settings if you have the Mail client set up with accounts.
This changed my perspective on batteryperformance TOTALLY!

Bad battery life after 107 update

Just like the title says. I have checked all my settins syncs which programs are running in the background and so forth.. so im sure its not that..
Anyways here goes.
Before the update I could get about 12-14 hrs of use out of a full battery charge, however after this update I can only get about 5-7 hrs out of a charge.. Nothing had changed.. my usage is the same, my wifi,bluetooth,gps,4g are all off. I don't have any programs syncing or updating in the background.. So i have NO CLUE as to why my battery life cut in half after this update.

I already posted this elsewhere......my battery life was really great before this update.
Same exact settings now as before, plus the phone was reloaded to factory settings by the Sprint store first as I was having some other issues...email not coming through timely, cell signal falling and dropping calls, etc.
My battery life is now 1/2 of what it was prior to the D107 update.

I would say wait and see. When I would flash roms on my HTC phone the battery would die quickly for awhile. After 2-3 full charges it would go back to normal.

Check Cell Standby in battery status. See if Time without signal is 50% or more.

Cell standby is 18% and time without signal is 7%

My time without signal is only 2% So I'm not sure what is going on to make my battery life soo bad.

i got 9 hours today with decent usage where before if say 12 or so ... since the update my time without signal is in the 30-50% range on average & it was 3-4% before .. im a little frustrated on that & i know its taxin the battery a little so . . .

my update has really screwed my battery life. I notice too that Juice Defender keeps reading at 1.00x instead of 1.6-1.8 before the update. I also notice my TWS was at 50-52%. I tried the Airplane mode toggle and it didn't do ****. I really love this phone, but i'm about to return it and try another before my 30 days is up.
So far, i'm concerned with:
back button is not consistent (works sometimes sometimes it sucks)
TWS over 50% of battery consumption.
upgrade made juicedefender not work
little wobble in the phone but not too bad
scratched screen just from rivet in jeans
AND pissed about the tv out that sprint omitted

The back button is a defect in an early batch of phones.. If you swap it, you will probably get a working model..
My email app didn't sync after the update, so I had to reinstall Roadsync. It might be the same thing with JuiceDefender.

My battery is getting much better. Not sure if it is the galaxy rom, the update or my battery is just getting conditioned better. I unplugged my phone this morning and have been on it constantly web browsing, music, 4g, 3g, lots of tapatalk use. 36% left and just approaching 4hrs of being unplugged.

How do you roll back this update.
Sent from my Samsung Epic 4g using XDA App

after i re-flashed and updated, ive experienced big drops from the 90% zone to like 75% in a short amount of time but then the decrease stays pretty slow.
im using adv task killer on maximum and juice defender
this combo works pretty well for me, i cant explain the 25% loss. I think my battery still needs calibration, but i get around 14-18 hours normally.

I've noticed the increased battery drain also. I've been tracking it the past couple days with Spare Parts. If you open Spare Parts, click on Battery history. If your phone is running like mine is right now, the Running time is at almost 100%. That means that something is preventing it from sleeping. Next, click the tab that says "other usage", and change it to "Partial wake usage". Mine is showing that Android System is the culprit, causing the partial wake lock. It was not doing this before the DI07 update. I did a factory reset this morning and the only app I installed was Spare Parts, just to make sure it wasn't an app I was using. I get the same results on a fresh clean ROM as I do using noobnl's ROM. NOT COOL!

Well my full run through of the battery is over. I've turned a new leaf about the battery on this. I'm keeping the Epic.
Conditions: Was at zero brightness for about 4hrs of this. Set it to 0 after getting to work. You can see the screen perfectly fine at 0 indoors. (30 minute ride)
GPS - Off except the couple times I checked out google earth
Sync - full manual syncing / with background data on to use the market
Usage: Heavy heavy usage for all but 20 minutes. Total time with screen actually on was about 4 1/2 hours. Lots of tapatalk use, streamed about 20 minutes of CNN via Slingplayer, Streamed about 10 minutes worth of music via last FM. Dolphin browser usage. About an hour of total usage was over 4G
No task managers (well Androids but that doesn't count), no juice defender.

After all that it has been sitting at 3% for 20 minutes (after taking the ss) with no usage as I wait for it to finally die and write this post. Just over 5hrs straight of near pure 3g/4g data usage over various applications and multimedia is perfectly acceptable to me. This is WAY longer than the average consumer laptop would get under similar usage w/ an aircard.
If I didn't use the phone like a miniature laptop so heavily and just kept it to normal use and some phone calls with auto brightness on I'd guesstimate I'd easily get 10 hours or so if not a lot longer out of it.
Running: Andromeda Galaxy Rom 1.0.3

the reason your getting bad battery life is because it reset all your battery stats. it's going to take a couple days til your battery life gets better. try the bump charging method.

Is my phone entering doze over night?

Hello, i have a frost white nexus 6p which i got for christmas and my battery seems to drop pretty fast throughout the day even when i am not using it and i have to charge it by about 5 or 6 pm after unplugging it about 9am.
i wasn't sure if it was an app causing this so i factory reset the phone and didnt install any new apps (only the ones that come with the phone updated) and left it over night to see how much it drained and if doze kicked in. The apps i was using and had installed before the reset was reddit relay, lightflow, tapatalk and whatsapp.
after putting it down around 12:30 - 1am and checking the battery at around 10am it only dropped 3-4 percent where as the night before it was around 15 percent with my apps installed but when i looked at the battery graph it wasn't a flat line like it would have been on my nexus 6 if doze was activated.
Does that mean doze didn't activate through the night? i looked at a friends nexus 6 and theirs had a completely flat line for the time that they was asleep?
Here is the graph of my battery from last night. this is after a wipe/reset with only the apps that came with the phone and some of the stock apps also updated before i put the phone down for the night.

3-4% drop overnight it's pretty good, Doze is kicking in.
As far as the graph goes, I think because it's showing you almost 3 days, you can't see the flat line..
After you use your device for a few minutes, this graph will change and you'll probably see the flat line.

The graph is hugely deceiving, let's say you went 5 hours with 0 % loss, but the last 5 mins you lost 1 %, while it was off, it would show a slant not a flat line.

It estimates how long your device will last until the battery is empty. If you use your phone a few minutes it will rescale as battery consumption over time increases and thus estimation of remaining time will decrease. As far as I know you cannot rescale manually. Basically it makes more sense to look at it in the middle of the day, not directly after a night of dozing.

It seems one of the apps you had previously inatalled was causing a wake lock. It shouldn't matter what you have running, your phone should doze when left alone.

I don't think so..
If you have root, you can try to use BBS or WLD to check if there's any wakelock waking your device.
There's also EX Kernel Manager (Requires BusyBox to work hehe)..
On EXKM you can control your kernel and it has an awesome battery consumption tool that shows you the screen on drain and screen off drain.

thanks guys.
after i posted my results this morning i installed reddit relay and whatsapp and didn't really use the phone for over 5 minutes throughout the day. it has now been about just under 7 hours and it dropped to 84%
I have now used the phone for about 15 minutes since the battery got to 84% browsing reddit using the relay app and just going in to the phone settings on under a 1/4 brightness and it has dropped to 74%. is it normal for it to drop 10% in that little amount of time?
In the battery settings my usage since full charge is
screen 2% - time on 20 mins
phone idle - 6 hours 30 mins
android system has kept the phone awake for 31 seconds
android os has kept it awake for 46 mins 46 seconds.
I'm not familiar with the battery stats and was wondering if android os should be keeping it awake for 46 minutes out of the 7 hours it has been on.
EDIT: it has dropped a further 3% since i have written this post and from having the screen on for no more than a minute to write down the battery stats from the screen on time and awake times

Dropped a further 10% last night when I was sleeping. Only apps that were installed was WhatsApp, Tapatalk and relay. It was 90% when I woke up not 84% i just didn't take the screenshot straight away and browsed on chrome first.

It must be one of these apps but I have always used them without a problem and they were fine on my nexus 6 a few days ago along with all the other apps that I had on there when i was using it before i got this phone.
Could it be a problem with the phone and getting a new one would fix this? or is it to do with the apps i mentioned. the apps are fine on my other phone and only drain by 1 or 2% over night.
Hopefully someone could help me. I know others who use these apps and even i did on my nexus 6 since marshmallow came out and havent had any problems until now on my 6p.

I think Whatsapp may be the issue. I am facing similar issues.

Standby drain

When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the LG G7 ThinQ's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Side note: according to the internal predictions (referring the "battery saver" statistics) of the device, the enabled always-on-display only causes a lack of some 30 minutes in a 24h period, so it seems like the impact is rather small.
Regarding other predictions, the display brightness and background data are the main drivers for achieving longer or shorter standby times while disabled vibration does save more than a disable AOD but still only gives you an extra hour or so. Now, disabled background data adds 5 or 6h. This, however, comes at a cost since even email push notices won't get through.

Personally I keep the background data always disabled, but I have added those apps into exceptions whose data I actually care about (gmail, hangouts, google play services and android wear). With these exceptions, the email push notifications and hangouts messages come through normally. Not sure how much battery I save, but I like the control this gives me over apps and what they are doing in the background.

Makes sense indeed.

It may sound a silly question but have patient...
According to you at what percentage I have to worry abot the drain?
Before the first update during the night I noticed that the battery never discharged (with Wi-Fi, Data and BT off). After the first update (to be clear the one that introduces the vertical icon for screen rotation) I noticed that the battery during the night discharges 3-5% that it's kind of accectable (Wi-Fi, Data, BT off). I've it may be the phone signal but it's always the same.
Same numbers:
Phone idle 20%
Screen 4%
Android System 2%
Mobile network standby 1%
Android OS 1%
Some apps
Instagram 6%
WhatsApp 6%
Google Play Store 3%
Google Play Services 1% for now. In the previous recharge circle it was 22%
Thank u in advance

My phone always looses between 2% and 5% of battery overnight, with airplane mode and battery saver enabled (not in extreme mode though). I consider normal and acceptable values between 0% and 6/7% during a standby of 7 or more hours.

Well, my values are more or less like yours. So I guess they are acceptable. I have also read about multiple Google accounts can drain battery through Play Services.
I was afraid that I have already to wipe. It's definitely not necessary

Does anybody knows what is the 'Home' app in battery usage?

The stock launcher. And that is crazy high. Home doesn't even show on my battery life currently 14 hours

but i don't use stock launcher, that's why call my attention.... today i disable google assistant AOD and see if its one of this features that consume battery as hell

Full 24 hours for me
23 hours off the charger and still going strong with 35% remaining.

I have about the same lifetime from the G7 3000mAh battery as from my P9 Plus 3400 mAh battery because of better efficiency. Overnight drain is close to nothing.

Mine drains quickly overnight, it is like never enters sleep mode.
Last night went from 30 to 0%. I missed my wake-up alarms!

A quick fix is to disable notifications for all apps you just don't need notifications for in app manager, saves a ton of battery life ...

Mine lasts forever on standby. Even this morning. Barely used it and was in standby by for 3 hours. At 99%. I am very satisfied with my battery life.

I love my G7. Made some tweaks but not rooted.
At the moment I have 42 hours and 5h DOT and 23% accu.

I just fixed my standby drain. It was one MAJOR thing that most phones have on and kills standby. Google Location History.
TURN THAT CRAP OFF!! I keep all other sync stuff on, so it is a minor thing.

I've got my G7 for a few weeks, came from Xperia XZ Premium.
I don't charge my phone overnight, usually charge it to around 90% before sleep.
With my XZP the phone would use around 5% or less over night (About 6-8 hours give or take)
But my G7 would use at least 10% overnight
First thing I notice with G7 is that the battery life isn't as good as my XZP

At night before bed. I give it a full charge. I then turn off wifi, bluetooth gps, and data.. Wake up in morning down only 3 percent. I always trun off stuff I do not use. If I'm at home, and primarily on the computer, all that stuff is shut off.

I just started noticing a slight drain on mine and I only got it a few months ago, refurb, and at first I was only getting 1% drain overnight (8hr)
Since I have some time off I decided to experiment a bit. I saved every personal photos and info, reset everything as if it was new, left out the SIM, didn't set up Google, didn't set up WiFi, turned off anything related to locations, turned off background data to all but the essential apps but they're not set up with anything so they shouldn't even be pushing anything but they're probably still trying because that's what they do. Anyway, so even the AOD is turned off, finally I left it on the table for 4hrs not even turning on the screen, it drained 2% in 4 hours. I imagine in 8hrs that would be 4% drain. That's probably normal. When I first got it and overnight I had it set up with all the apps I use and overnight it barely drained anything and I was amazed. But that's the nature of batteries, they decay over time. Sucks that it looks like a pain in the ass to replace just the battery. After that if the prices drop on the LG G8 ThinQ I might aim for that in a year. The headphone jack is a must for me.
