One thing I have learned is that every flash is different and you get different results everytime. What Roman are you using?

I'm on ACS ICS Beta 4. I want to say it's my apps but I don't see a glaring issue. Is it the phone signal? I noticed it was the only indicator in yellow. I'm not sure if it's good or bad.
Also, why is the phone awake for an 1 hour and 44 minutes but the screen was on for only 14 minutes?

Is the phone signal being in yellow mean that it's using more battery than the other functions?

Yeah, I've noticed since Sprint has started selling off parts of their 'excess' towers, that the 'time without signal' drain is -much worse- and kinda effects roms (like Bonsai) that have a fix baked in.

Hmmm, I have full signal but it's still in yellow on the battery status screen. I wonder does this have anything to do with it?

I have no idea how some people have their phones on for over 24 hours and only have 4 hours screen on time... that is LIGHT use... my screen has been on for 4 hours at the very most 8 hours after puulling it off the charger.. I never get more than 8 hours on battery because I use my phone way too much for that... lol

I like face to face communication, and even though I use my phone for business and syncing three email accounts all day, I cannot see what I could possibly do on my phone that much per day.

My best battery life on CM7:
I didn't get the screen on time but 54% is a good amount.
I was using the night RenderFX in CM7, thats why the colors are different.

I have a 3500MAh battery and i get like 30 hours of use 2-3 days standby with CM7 best rom by far even with OC kernel i get close to that with 1200Mhz cpu and 300Mhz gpu so i cant complain one bit and then i have the original battery as a back up so im good for almost a week. Best part is i only paid 7$ with free shipping for the bigger battery.

Just broke 4 hrs display time with CM7 and have 2 % left. Not bad.

@mixtapes08 - hahahaha wow, amazing .. did you turn of data or put it in airplane mode ? i dint do it and i got till here, please give details

Im guessing no time/ very little time browsing because its a heavy battery user and it would show up as a part of your batter drainers.

Yea, im sure I can put on a black background and leave my screen on and pull 6+hrs of "screen time". I'm going to play Devils advocate here and say this number wasn't achieved with typical phone usage, with data on etc.

Considering screen is then followed by no other applications that are actually using it, it's possible. Either way, that's actually pretty impressive.

guys, this is no gimmick, i had 2g on and wifi too for about 2-3 hours, no browsing but i was using whatsapp and side by side i was theming the phone using gallery and the other apps required to make a unique homescreen, im not stupid to sit with my phone idle on for 6 hours :/
if you see in the general section, ive crossed 6 hours before with nmv rom so its not something im faking up

Is this decent battery life?

Hi all,
I'm considering buying a new OEM battery for my 2.5 year old mt4g. I am rooted and running a custom rom, MyTouch UX 3.0 at the moment, but I usually use the CodeFireX AOSP Jelly Bean rom. Here is a screenshot of my current battery usage:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So around 6-7 hours with wifi turned off and the phone in my pocket at school. Its okay-ish for a 2 year old battery, but should I go on amazon and buy myself an OEM battery for $7? Also, does anybody know a kernel for CodeFire X that gives good battery life? Feedback please...

What's your SOT?
Should post a screen shot of that too considering it's taking 75% of your battery. So I'm thinking about 2 1/2 hours?

Not quite sure what you mean, but I can tell you that since I posted that (13 minutes) I now have 50% battery. I'm on airplane mode, so cell standby is off.

It SEEMS a little low, but I've seen worse. If you're looking for a new battery check out Anker.

battery is dead. i've got a new one!

OK guys, I got the battery from the above post. Just one last problem. Since the battery is extended, my meter says the battery is full when its really only around 90%. This can be fixed by charging while the phone is off. Since I am rooted, I tried to clear the battery stats in cwm, but the problems still there

Is that on all LTE at least? I only get 2.5 hours on my nexus 5 on lte
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

mainly 3g but sometimes LTE.It maybe fixed with an update but for now

I hope that changes in software update, or maybe some optimizations are in order. I get more usage out of my Galaxy S5. =T

I get a full day (24 hours) being 5 hours screen on in my S4 with light to moderate usage with WIFI. When using 3G it's really worse, probably because I have poor signal and it constantly drops.
The OP probably has something installed that is draining too fast. Or maybe the battery isn't yet calibrated. Might still need some charge cycles.

I saw another reviewer on YouTube that was claiming 5-7h screen on time over the past 2 weeks so reports seem quite inconsistent

I think the problem is cyanogen. It's not known as a very powersaving ROM.

M8 has a good battery performance indeed.

Invite please
Hey,
I know I am probably gonna get no where but I will try my luck. Can you please send me an invite if you have any left as I would really really really like to purchase this phone. It looks good. Also i noticed your android system is too high which is probably what is causing the battery drain. Usually location service ( so like google now) or most likely something has got it on a constant wakelock i.e. facebook app.
