[Q] Nexus 4 battery as percents - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
Couldn't find any info if it is possible to display battery as percents in STOCK 4.3 ROM? (As seen in CyanogenMod ROM)
Thanks in advance,
Martin

There are apps that will show percentage, such as https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.darshancomputing.BatteryIndicator

Or there's a thread on XDA with a load of battery icon mods for 4.3. I'd send you the link but I cba searching for it when you can do it yourself

What is causing my battery drain!

Recently flashed Franco kernel from faux and my battery is a lot worse. I'm not an expert on kernels and don't really understand the wake locks and so on was wondering if someone could tell me why my battery is so poor from the screenshots below. Thanks

Please install CPU Spy and GSAMbattery Monitor. Also, what apps do you have installed?
there doesn't seem to be an issue with battery drain
edit: you need to use your phone normally for a day and then take screenshots.
Are you on Nightly 134?

It's just less than 7 minutes of use in the image! So, this information means nothing.

[Q] battery om cm10.1

Hi fellow Finders,
I have a question about the battery life. I have recently switched to cyanogenmod 10.1 but I am having trouble with the battery life, and in the picture attached it seems that the cpu is running full power since I unplugged my device.
Does anyone has the same problem, I am just listening to music this morning and already I am left 20% less battery than 1.5 hours ago.
Is it good to install a different kernel than the standard cm? Or are there other solutions?
Greetings,

Apparently the governor is the problem as mentioned in the original cm 10.1 thread. Changing the governor to conservative did the trick for me

Only the trick with the governor can help you!!

Android OS using 99% battery, no other apps listed.

Can anyone tell me what to make of this? My battery was wiped out today just sitting idle in my pocket at work. I'm using a CM Mako nightly with the newest franco.Kernel. I've been told this is a common bug within 4.3 in general, but I found no resolutions. Please look at the attached screenshots and let me know if you need any more info to help me out.

Looks like an issue with the kernel but I hear alot of issues with c10.2. Try asking someone in the Franco thread.

Better Battery Stats might give you more details on what the exact cause could be.

I have the same issue on my nexus 5 with stock kernel and stock rom. Any ideas?

Nexus 4 , then and now

I owned a nexus 4 when it was launched.
Kept it for a while but sold it because of the poor (at the time) battery times with stock 4.2.
My question is if anything has changed since then in terms of battery and/or performance with the latest kit kat 4.2
Can battery runtimes get any better with custom roms ? Stable one at least...
Thanks in advance.

Well, everything has changed. There are a variety of kernels that greatly improve battery life..so I don't see any consequences to sell N4 just because of that

There are all kinds of kernels and ROMs to extend battery life. I love this phone more now than I did when I bought it. Nexus 5 what?

Have you tried to completely flash the stock 4.4.4 image? Does your battery seem to bulge? Have you tried changing the charging cable and the charging transformer itself?
