I can't see how this is one of the biggest batteries out yet after a full nights charge and barely using the phone it needs to be charged again by the middle of the day! I'm tempted to put my sim card back in my iphone... If any one has suggestions I'm all ears.
Oh and I've tried to follow steps to root/unlock etc. but I get errors from the rsnlite 5.3.? installer that it can't install.

Dude, there are like three complete threads here with solutions to battery problems. Why did you create another one?
Two of them are in the very same section where you created this thread.
Solution to your battery life woes can be had by putting your sim back inyour iphone. The atrix and instructions to use this forum seem to be above your level of using technology. Btw, my battery life has been awesome.
I voided my warranty.
Dude seriously if you battery sucks its because you dont know how to use the phone properly i get 15-24 hours with heavy texting facebook and browsing you dont need to complain about somthing its your own issue creating another thread is useless post up on the others not here
Holy snot I in no way was bashing the phone but was venting my frustration in how complicated it seems to be to get the battery to last...
I also posted in the general section not QA where I knew I would get bashed.
Im on stock 2.3.4 and it seems like (due to not being able to install the 5.3 lite program) I'm stuck running stock rom and can't make changes needed you guys can.

If you aren't comfortable flashing a new rom and/or freezing system apps, give the "2x battery" app a try. It certainly is an improvement to the stock battery life.
I really want to flash one but the program I need to install on my cpu won't install... I keep getting error msgs and no one has been able to give me a solution why yet.
I used to have an htc fuze and flashed roms almost daily so I have the knowledge but my machine isn't cooperating with the needed download to unlock.
Ill try the 2x battery, thank you for the help.

Stock atrix battery life sucks!

Could not disagree more. On my stock Atrix, I was getting just over 2 days usage (not just leaving the phone on the table) pretty consistently. Rooted and GB rom now, am getting a day and a half but am probably just getting the battery and rom used to each other lol
I don't get it, I had 80% 2 hours ago then went to 70% powered off and on and now I have 80% again?

Omg. You have a self charging battery!

Freezing apps would definitely help. Especially is you use "System Panel" to find the culprits.
Although from what I've heard isn't stock supposed to have better battery life than the custom ROMS?...

Ill take a look at that one to. Went to sleep with 70% and left wifi on all night to end up with 50% this morning. I'd say that isn't too bad.

Which battery saving mode are you using?...
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
My battery lasts about 3h max, im living the dream!
@ccrows- It only lets me select the daytime mode due to not having the PRO version. And I dont see in it where I can freeze apps?
It actually seems to be charging faster as well. How long does it take you guys to get a full charge from dead on average?
Hi every one! Everything was ok with my GNote and for months with ics update. yesterday I tried to reboot it because the battery was empty after long time use. I connected the phone to the charger but nothing happens. I waited a few hours but nothing too. It does not pass to download mode and recovery mode too. I tried the battery on the GNote of my brother and it works and its battery does not help to boot up on my GNote. So the problem is on the phone. What is the solution please?
PS: i don't changed anything on the Gnote since Mounths
Thank you

Just a long shot, but is it a faulty battery connection on your device.
have you tried to flash another gb or ics rom?
Im guessing you run on stock ics, you could be superbricked if you deleted a big file from your phone, deleting big files could trigger the eMMC brick command. Just guessing here so i could be wrong.

Wrong.
Seems to be battery connection problem from your tests as it was said before. If your warranty is not void..should go for SAV.

i'll send it to SAV Later. Thanks for all of you
Have you tried charging your battery in your brothers note, and then placing it in yours? If your phone boots, then its a faulty connector issue.

If it was a faulty battery connection, as seems to be a consensus here, than your phone wouldn't boot at all; yet you say that you can reach Download and Recovery mode.
It's something else.

Hey guys,
I live in the uk and went to Bulgaria for 16 days. I left my S3 home and took an older phone with me. Didn't want my samsung stolen, etc.
So, before I left the house I charged the phone up and left it in airplane mode.
I got back more than 2 weeks later to find the phone still on in standby mode with 48% of battery left. Meaning that it could go for about 34 days in airplane mode with one charge.
I know we can't do much with this info but I felt the need to share it.

That's awesome. My sgs2 can only make it for about a week in airplane mode, with a 2100mah extended battery.
Are you using the stock ROM? Looks like touchwiz icons from the screenshot you posted.

So in order to get great battery life all we need to do is never turn the screen on and never use it as an actual phone, great find!
I bought my s3 from cex (a popular exchange chain here in UK) and when I got the phone it was at 8% charge with 34 days of standby. The phone was left on, without sim card inserted, but with WiFi on, even if wasn't connected to any network. I thought it was pretty cool as the same happened with a one x I bought two weeks before, always from cex, and in the same condition the HTC was on 8 days standby time when it discharged completely in my hand

Nice!!!
Actually there is a point to this...
I think that this is a very interesting post. Why?
Because I suspect that for most people, there are times of the week when they don't actually use the phone or even need it available to take calls but (like me) don't want to have to turn it off at night and turn it on again in the morning.
So, using a tool like Llama, you can set your phone automatically to put itself into Airplane mode at night and to reconnect in the morning - so extending your stand-by time.
(Note: I actually go further than this - and put mobile data on only 3 minutes every 30 when screen is off. And I get great battery time - or would do if I didn't use the screen so much!!)

With every electronic gadget using Lithium-ion batteries nowadays, it doesn't really matter how/when you charge it.
Some would argue to make sure to allow a full discharge from a full charge from a battery calibration point of view, so the battery meter is more accurate. It wouldn't affect the health of the battery itself either way.
Things like memory effect doesn't apply to lithium-ion. How often you charge it and how much you charge it (full or partial charge etc.) doesn't affect it much either. The only 2 things that can potential kill a lithium-ion is high temperature and letting it discharge far too low to the point that it cannot be charged up again. Note that all electronic devices will power off way before it even reaches this threshold.

Read this in a different thread when i was unboxing my nexus 7, i let mine sit for a while on the charger before i turned it on, but it came charged already. So far i have not let my nexus drain to 0% and the battery life on it is great, it can go for a entire day.

Sounds like it may be a corrupt download. Unless you plan to remain on the stock ROM just unlock/root it and then install what ever ROM you like.

I found website for to redownload way (i can't share url because i haven't 10 post) and i have tried twice but every time android robot laying down whit his chest open and a red triangle appears and i can't update. Can someone know why it is happened?
So my nexus had been unplugged and without charge for about 3 weeks or so, I've been very busy at work. I try and connect the tablet so that i can use again and the screen flickers for an instant and nothing happens, I don't see the white icon charging animation and no response after that. It's my tablet done or is there a solution for this. Thanks to anybody that can help.

Ok, I don't really know what exactly the problem is. But I think the battery seems to be dead. because if it is still good, at least it shows the indicator light when it's plugged with charger.. If u have a simple tool to test battery energy maybe u can find out. or maybe try another battery..
Leave it plugged into the charger for a good while and then hold down the power button hard, for about 30 seconds. See if that forces it on.
How long did you leave it plugged in for? It may take a few hours...

My problem is solved, I have a friend who had the same problems with the tablet Nexus 7 16GB, the back of the unit opens easily with just a fingernail to open a case as remote and actually the battery plug is not fully inserted into the camera, a little bit of nail to reconnect the cable and now my tablet displays well 100% load.
