Juice Defender uses up far more battery than it "saves" and creates a ridiculous amount of instability on your phone. A guaranteed way to achieve significant improvement in your phone's battery life & stability is to uninstall Juice Defender, along with any task-killer apps you are running.
It's bad enough you got gypped into paying for it--but you may as well cut your losses here.

They haven't updated the app for years! I think they pretty much abandoned the project. So there's no support for newer devices. All they do is cut off connections when you don't need it. You can do that yourself.

Use Automate It instead. Takes a little more to set up but works flawlessly.

Yeah the app used to be good but it's rubbish now. Using it would actually drain more battery than it saves. You can see from the battery usage graph that every time the app turns on your data connection, it forces your phone into the awake state which wastes a lot of battery. You are better off leaving data on all the time.

IMO it was never any good--it interrupts system apps repeatedly which only caused them to "attempt" to start up over and over thereby consuming more battery than if Juice Def were never installed on the phone. It was like a task-killer on steroids; a pricey example of the placebo effect that does way more harm than good.

I installed Juice Defender 4-5 days ago. I'm running it with the older netarchy-toastmod 4.1.2 kernel. I already had disabled my always-on data connection. I want to say my battery life has improved by at least 50% with this combination (Juice Defender reports a 1.83x improvement, and it may actually be close to that).
My phone has been on battery for 11 hours and 11 minutes. I'm at 55% battery, with the following (moderate for me) usage:
83m talk
9h 17m idle
11h 11m bluetooth
Before installing Juice Defender, I'd probably be at 20% right now. The only disadvantage to it is that the phone is a little slow to respond for the first few seconds upon wake-up (presumably while the CPU ramps up).
Overall, I'm very happy with the results. I just thought I'd pass them along.

Can you change settings to adjust for that CPU lag on startup/unlock? I know you can with SetCPU.
Also, how exactly does JD trade off without the always-on data? Can you set it to poll every x minutes or something? The biggest problem with turning off the always-on data is you lose Gmail push and similar notifications.
Eh, I got much worse battery life when using it. Total waste of money, IMO.

It seems like a lot of the settings are configurable in "Ultimate Juice," which is the one you have to pay for. I'm using the free "Juice Defender" and very little if configurable. It shuts data off when you turn off the screen, and turns it on for one minute every 15 minutes, to sync stuff. Not a bad compromise, in my opinion.

Agreed. The standby time is the only improvement for me, too. However, standby time is probably 75% of the day for me, most days.

I have heard good things about juice defender, but i have a basic question. It says it turns of data during times, or when certain apps are running, etc...
Now, is the data only internet connection? Or will it interfere with my ability to get texts as well, because that would be a deal break for me.
Data is only the internet. The only things that you'll be missing out on are e-mails, which will still come through based on your schedule set up and when you have your screen on.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Heard so much about this app, tried it and took me only a few hours to remove it. When screen is off, it kills data, so basically apps like K-9 Mail that push my IMAP-idle email accounts and poll other accounts are basically impotent.
Plus the interface is confusing with a myriad of settings and no real hold on what settings stick or what not to set. I understand the concept of the app but it's not for me. With stock rom and mediahub-DRM-whatever-process killed off manually, i get by a work day with 50% left over on the train/bus-ride home, more than enough to do stuff before i get home.
I dave been using juicedefender for 3 weeks and it has maximized my batt an overall of 1.4x. The interface is confusing for those that don't spend time and learn it....its granular.

Sent from my Epic 4G
I'm totally happy with it - I'm getting a rating of around 1.7x to 1.9x I know I can easily go a full day on one charge. The default setting of enabling data every 15 minutes is enough for me - I don't expect to get emails that are time sensitive to the point where a maximum of 15 minute delay would be detrimental. And I play with my phone a lot so I'm usually waking it up to respond to texts and it reenables data then anyway.
edit: I'm not using any battery tweaks or DRM disabling stuff. I'm stock except for rooting.
You guys and this juice defender. you use more battery with this because it is always running in the background. i get 45 hours without juice defender or a task killer. 1 day of battery pleasssseee i could get 2 if it was left in standby or more. no drm removed. root, cwm, galaxy rom and kernel di18 & blue minimalism
Oh well f me... If you're getting 45 hours that must mean I can get 45 hours because, you know, our geographic locations have the exact same coverage and we have the exact same phone usage patterns. Wow I feel like such an idiot. Thank you. Thank you for showing me that juice defender, instead of increasing my battery life by a good 6-8 hours, is actually killing it by 21 hours...

That's fine - always be skeptical especially when an update comes out to improve performance. I'm about to test the new kernel without this to see if it's worth it. But I know that keeping data off on my Hero tripled the battery life and since having this phone it's definitely increased it. But you can't tell me that I'm losing 21 hours of battery life by using it - and definitely don't try to make me feel like an idiot for using it either.

Im sure its not killing you by 21 hours. prolly your STOCK sync settings though. i only turn it on for a minute or two 3x a day. but go with out it i bet its prolly like 8 hours. think about it when your screen is off it is running. well that is another process that is draining battery unneccessarily. My entire phone is set up like on demand it does what i want it to when i want it to not when it wants too and all of this is acheived with stock settings and checking every app for update frequency settings. I use my phone a lot so i need it to be there.

So for argument's sake, and because I wanted an actual test, I installed your setup based on you're post earlier, andromeda rom, no juice, etc. gmail and facebook sync off. I even went in 4 times throughout the day to turn off running services. I got 11 hours and that was with charging while I was in a vehicle. So I would say about 9 to 10 hours really. TWS was only at 16%. Display was the biggest battery drain at 82%.
So now that I've done this, I can say without a doubt, for me personally, juice defender is really extending my battery life. While running juice defender, I take my phone off the charger at 6am typically and when I go to bed at midnight I still have over 20%. And if I don't plug my phone in, I can wake up at 6am the next day and the phone is still on.
You have a setup that works for you, and I have a setup that works for me. In my setup, juice defender gets me through a 24 hour period without charging. Now that I've got the andromeda rom and kernel, I'm going to test battery life with juice.

I have juice defender installed only for it's two toggle widgets. With defender disabled it doesn't run in background, I take advantage of the data toggle widget and I've seen it save as high as 5x's life.
Hi did anyone experiance this kind of battery consumption? 3days 14hours and 45min and still have like 7%?
Not personally, I use my phone too much to get that kind of life out of it. Based on what I know about the drain when it's screen off and sleeping, though, I think it's well within the realm of possibility with light use.
I get like 24 hours out of mine... with some light-moderate use... used to be better when I bought it but then after installing some apps it just starts degrading a bit I guess
Well, rechargable batteries do degrade over time, and the more apps you have on a device, generally the less time it will last on battery, partially because those that run in the background consume more system resources and partially because those that update data in the background will keep your phone "awake" more of the time.
If I wasn't using my phone and just let it idle (sync on, airplane mode off) I'd get like 12 days of battery life. That's what I like about the NxS, unlike other smartphones it does actually last longer when not used.

That's no issue, but working as intended.
Other phones are using the same technique, but they are hiding it by showing the 100% the phone never reached, that's why they drop to 95-97%ish right after unplugging and from there drain normally.
I experienced battery drowning after using app's like maps or latitude. I had to kill them manually, now I'm cleaning the phones memory regularly. That safes a lot of battery life for me on the one hand, but on the other hand loading app's isn't as fast as before.
It's the classical trade-off between battery life an usability. And 10-12 hours are normal for me if I'm using my phone a lot.

This is perfectly average battery life for stock rom with moderate to heavy usage but if on light usage you might have some issues. Here is my battery like with heavy use.

Maybe you could post up your betterybatterystats results?
I was having the same problem. I have a lot of apps on my phone, and it was just draining while sleeping as far as I could see. My main issue was all the unwanted apps like the social and media hub popping up whenever they felt like chomping on my battery.
I finally gave in and rooted, and installed droidwall to prevent anything getting network access I do not allow, android assistant for its start up manager, and autorun to delete all 'event listeners' that cause apps to pop up when they like (and there are hundreds of these in the stock apps, I assure you).
I now have 50% more battery life, and it seems to lose a lot less while sleeping.
I installed the CPU speed set thingy (sorry, I forget the name) but I had the problem a few others seem to have because it drained the battery faster than ever while sleeping. I will try again after a few days. I screenshot the battery graph in full screen, showing the WiFi, wake & screen, every day so that I can get a good feel for historical usage and battery life.
I have an el cheapo battery (had two but lost one) for emergencies. I am buying a Samsung one instead (for a 'real' 2500 mAh), and expect to keep it on me at all times. That should take me through a day of pretty heavy usage. I also have some dangly 'add-on' chargers, but frankly a spare battery is neater, smaller and easier.
I have also bout a tablet (10.2" with 16GB) for $200. I fully expect to buy another - one for work and one for home. These will reduce my usage of the G-Note and leave it for actual use as a phone. The main problem is that I use it so damned much! I have my phone, contacts, all my To Do lists, email, audible books, textual books, surfing, games, etc all on one device. I also use it to type notes at meetings or the like using my folding BT keyboard. It does it all really well, but does not have the battery to cope!
I know there are fat batteries out there, but I do not want to spoil the beauty of my svelte Note by giving it a hunch-back!

I also use Llama to control things like BT, WiFi and network data access when away from home or office. It does help, and means I don't have to remember to toggle. I tried Juice Defender as well, but its idea of turning on the WiFi at intervals saved my battery but seemed to make my email (IMAP) never download. I need to know when emails come in so that did not work for me. I may try it again at some point and try to make it work better for me.
Uninstall Juice Defender. I found my phone battery lasted twice longer after I removed it.

that's... actually pretty normal battery usage if you're using your phone a lot.
my note is operating pretty much 18hours a day. A full charge is all i need, and by the end of the day, i get the critical battery notification.
if your note lasted more than a day, that's great. But with the amount of workload i am expending using my note, i wouldn't be surprised if continued usage of the phone would only last 7 to 8 hours tops. or much less.
and besides, the note can last for more than 2 days, if you didn't use it at all.
thanks for all the suggestions...i'm going to give rooting it a go this evening. Will let you know how that goes.

Yeap, that seems like average battery life. If you notice (others) that his screen on time was pretty solid most of the time. That means of the nearly 6 hours on, I'd say about 4.x hours the screen was on. So that's good
I have managed to improve my Galaxy note battery life a LOT by doing the following:
- Disable Wi-Fi when not using it.
- Settings > Accounts and Sync > UN-TICK "Auto-sync".
With auto-sync disabled you have to manually open the relevent app to get the data, but for me, thats what I prefer, and it saves loads of battery life.
Used to be 8 hours or less with the above 2 enabled.
now 16 hours+ with the above 2 disabled !
Installed free version of Juice Defender 3 days ago, didn't do anything just keeping it on balanced mod and from now on I have extended normal battery life (phone, e-mails, sms, occasional internet through 3G) from 1 day to 2 days. What can I say ...
It works. When you switch into wifi, gaming or intensive document editing then nothing is going to save you, but just for having the phone in your pocket and using it as a "phone" Juice Defender delivers.
I noticed on the market that roughly half people say it is excellent and the other half is whining that it just sucks. Give it a try a decide for yourself.
Just turn auto sync off and untick "Use wireless networks" and you will be blown away by the battery life.
The last two days my battery was losing power too quickly compared to my previous weeks with my note.
So I thought it must be an app which I installed which is causing this. The only app I installed recently was Google + so it took it off and hey presto - battery life back to normal again.
You might say well it doesn't drain my battery with google+ installed but it works with mine as I tried re-installing again and it sapped the battery again.
Maybe different apps effect different roms, kernals etc...just a thought and something you could try with a recently installed app.

I can see that as an option, and I believe that all of those who report great battery life are doing much the same. My problem is that I want to be kept alerted to emails. I have tried Juice Defender, as it starts up wireless at defined intervals, but since my email is checking at other defined intervals, at appears that the email never gets through. I have to assume they never coincide.
I also like certain apps to sync, although I guess I could do that manually. Currently I turn on autosync while at home or work with Llama. Luckily the wireless and autosync toggles are in the notification dropdown as well - that is a wonderful idea.
I use the Note far too much, so (as I have probably said) I am getting a tablet. I hope that it will serve as my email notification when I am at home or work. When Llama knows I am at neither place, it can disable autosync and enable mobile data for me (which I keep off at home & work).
It is a delicate balance trying to get full desired operation and decent battery life. I am not sure it is really worth all the agro. I may just settle for a spare battery in my wallet and a dock/battery charger by my bedside. That is probably the easiest of all options! Then I can game away whenever I like without constantly checking the battery

My nexus 4 has dissapointing battery life, can someone please tell me any tips to increase the battery life? Obviously, lower the brightness, dont have too many apps running, try not to browse on chrome for too long, etc etc. Does anyone use any of the battery saving apps out there? Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks. Also, I dont understand why there are no mods/cases with an extended battery. Obviously the battery is not easily removed but I'd be fine with a thicker nexus4 if I could double my battery life.
root it and run custom ROMs and kernels, undervolt it and whatnot.
You can just buy a portable battery pack you know.. They aren't exactly expensive and serve the sane purpose as an extended battery case.
When people say that such device has got a disappointing battery life.. I wonder what it means. If a battery offers a sot of 8hrs..would this thing satisfy all?
I've used S3 which people say has got great battery life.. I got more or less the same battery life in s3 as i get from nexus 4...
Anyways..trying custom kernel and undervolting.it could give you better results..

Agreed. I have friends with s3s, one x and iphone5, and I honestly do not think the battery is bad at all. I'm pretty sure the battery lasts longer for me than for them. And I'm not one for "disabling features" either.
I'm running wifi/data both on and I never manually disable anything. My GPS is on 24/7, and I have all tracking options enabled (for google now). Using auto-brightness though. Still get 4h SOT and I stay 30+h normally without a charge. I do not game alot on my phone though!
I recently re-flashed google stock images (4.2.2) and franco's kernel. Also undervolted but if I dont get any "better" (in terms of heat) results I will definatly remove the undervolting.
