Try flashing a custom kernel like Franco kernel ... Try that and see results many people had have reported that this kernel helps them

I prefer balanced battery and peformance. Please advice. Thanks
All kernels work differently for different people. Try a bunch and see what works.
-Brought to you by Marino's Nexus 7-
Franco kernel lets you overclock the gpu to what ever you want (416-750 and anything in between) so with that in mind you can create your own balance of battery vs performnce.
You cant overclock cpu but honestly it isnt needed.
Also with his latest release r25 th whol devive is much more responsive. Touchscreen etc.

I'm on stock. I can't deal with sods. It's fast and battery life is good.

i'd say go franco or trinity.
Anyone have this issue? I ill get the 15%warning and within minutes I'm down to 1% and it shuts off. my battery life is good otherwise but it's like 15%is more like 2% with how fast it shuts off then.

probably calibration issues.
give it a few days to gater a better voltage profile
The battery flat out lies, it drifts further from reality if you don't reboot at all during a drain cycle.
So your N4 is "normal" as far as N4's go.
Ya kinda what I figured but my s2 wasn't like that so it seemed weird

Hope it's an OS bug that can be fixed with a patch or the next Google images (when/if they come). I'm holding out hope for that to be the case rather than another build quality issue :fingers-crossed:
Battery stat on nexus 4 is simply terrible. Galaxy Nexus that I had with android 4.2 is much better. Dunno if it's a software issue or hardware issue since galaxy nexus with sane OS seems to be fine.

Does anyone know a stable ROM that can significant increase the battery life on the Nexus 4? Right now I'm stock, and battery life has been terrible and doesn't even last me through the day. It is also very slow to charge on the included charger, but seems to charge faster on a Kindle Fire 1.8A I have.
Thanks!

The custom kernels in the dev section offer decent battery life.
I'm a wifi user mostly and I get @5.5 to 6 hours screen on time with lite gaming and browsing (this site all day lol).. i do Undervolt by a total of 150mV too... I recomend Harsh's kernel personally.
Underclocking the CPU is not worth it imo because it just makes other cores go online quicker when more power is needed... though it may help a small bit.
other usual tips..
use low screen brightness
turn off google now
turn off gps location
only sync stuff you really use, turn other syncs off (i have just gmail,contacts,browser synced)
turn off nfc if not using
make sure to use the open recent apps button and swipe away all apps when putting the phone down for a while (this really helps with stock kernel because of the wakelocks)
edit.. also after a week or so of charges the battery gets better.
Mpdecision is killing the battery. Try Franco kernel or faux.

My nexus 4 has horrible battery drain and gets INSANELY hot when I'm doing things like browsing and using twitter apps etc, It gets even hotter and droped about 1% every 40-50 seconds when playing a game Like GTA 3.
Never had such bad problems before. Is there a fix?

I need an actual fix. Many people have this problem it isn't something that can be solved with an app.

If it's stock the only problems can arise from the apps installed

I am on stock rom and kernel but i have never experienced something like this , are you using custom kernel ?
Sent from my Nexus 4
No, as I said, many people have had these problems, it does not come form apps installed.
the google stock kernel kind of swings between bad and good. i've had it go hot and munching away battery or stay cool and deliver 2 days on regular use. i would suggest you try a custom kernel like franco, that has kind of stabilized it for me and i can forget about the kernel again.
Hello guys i know thats my first thread in xda and that tread maybe looks noobish to you but i wanted to ask how is your Battery life with the OTA 4.3 update on nexus 4 i personaly installed
the update with fastboot and factory image as soon as it got realesed and until then i havent charged it yet.I ve seen some vids on yt surfed the
net and played some nfs most wanted by the way the battery status now is at 10% So how is yours ?
Was on OTA update til acouple minutes and from what I could tell, I felt my battery life last longer compared to stock 4.2.2 and slightly less than Franco's

That is outstanding. But how in the world is it possible that you have a "screen on" state without being awake?
I have been fighting battery issues for so long now, I'd really like to get to something as good as what you get...
i get 5 hours on heavy use until i hit 10 % well my setup is in my signature on light use i am sure i can stretch it to 6 hours with brightness on auto and wifi is on most of the time
battery life is never going to be better for me unless i uv. the previous setup, i used cm 10.1.2 stable with matr1x kernel. i uv and set the max cpu to 1350. it was really really good. i can use the phone from 8am to 9pm.
now currently using aosp 4.3, the default setup battery life has improved a bit compared to 4.2.2 stock, but after semaphore kernel installed and uv a bit, even with max cpu at default which is 1.5ghz, battery life has been really great.

I've terrible battery usage after 4.3 update. I never had any issues before but now I get 20 to 30 percent drop during the night when before it was under 10 in the same scenario.
Android os Showing 6h usage...
Any help on sorting this out highly appreciated.
Battery life has increased a lot for me.
No heavy usage, I know. But still awesome compared to the stats I had when I bought my nexus 4

Just out of curiosity, are in you the US/North America?
I had the same issue of losing tons of battery to the OS overnight. I reflashed to an older version of the modem. Most of the people I have seen so far with these symptoms have been in France and India. Must be something about the cell services and how they interact with the phone.
@Calebz: I'm in Ireland.
I've restarted the phone since and the battery usage is back to normal, will see for how long.
