could anyone tell me a few details about, how long it takes to fully charge the G2?
3000mh sounds like a lot of charging time, right?
Not exact time but ours fast if you use the official chargers or anything with a 1.8 amp to 2 amp.

Actually, it's not long at all. This is my fourth day with this phone and each day I'm more impressed with the charge time, I have been letting my phone battery drop down to 15% before charging and on average I have been getting a full charge in a little under 2 hours while using its original charger. I am genuinely in shock and disbelief at the rapid charge time on this beast of a device, it has to do with the new Snapdragon 800 processor. I love this phone ?

Yeah, from 0-100% it takes about 2 hours
Well if you disturb the phone and use it while charging it takes super long. Like almost 4 hours.

Just curious since it died on me earlier today, plugged it in at 7 and it took till 11 p.m to charge to 100%. I know that's only 4 hours, but its disappointing because my iPhone 4 really only takes an hour and a half.
How long does your guys take? The phones battery is calibrated and I really need a phone that can zip up real fast when it comes to battery consumption.

On the wall plug my Z takes about 2hrs from 15%. The pc usb takes about a third more time. I find the charge is more complete or more full if that makes sense when charged from the pc.

90-120 mins seems to be the norm for me.
Would you guys think its the battery? Do you turn the phone off? This phone seems to take an eternity.

Not compared to the g1.. that thing took 12 hours to charge.

Install one of the battery meter apps on your phone that displays a percentage charge. Then you will be able to see what is going on, e.g. if it is just charging very slowly overall, or if it charges quite quickly but takes forever to do the last few percent.
Juice Plotter is pretty good for checking that kinda things. charge/discharge time etc.
Mine normally takes 3-4 hours
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
What are you charging it from? USB on computer or plugged into the wall socket? Is it the one that came with the phone? I've noticed all of these things can make a difference in charging time.
Juice Plotter is a good program as the others said and may help figure out what is going on.

it takes ages to charge up the battery is this good or bad?
Use the charger provided by Samsung... suffice to say, the Note comes with a sizeable battery..twice the size of most phones and so if you use the battery it needs to be recharged
But what's your definition of ages to charge?

It takes a minimum of 3.5 hrs to charge from 0-100%.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
3.5h at least. If you charge through usb, then it may take considerably more.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
If you charge it with a PC via USB, even with the battery at 100% it will last considerable less than with the original Samsung charger..

The stock charger is terrible.
Takes too long to charge. I swear my iPad takes less time to fully charge.
I use Hyperion 2600ma batteries. Got two with a charger for around $20. They charge fast with the included wall charger

I use a Stock charger at home and a HTC Titan charger at work, both seem to work pretty well.
PC or Car charger will take _forever_ to charge, and in fact if I'm using Navigation in the car, the battery will discharge faster than the car can charge it. (this really blows..)
Can take a few hours to fully charge with the samsung lead from note to power. Never seems to get fully charged in the car - well maybe in 4 to 5 hrs. But the battery last long and so can't really complain.
what's goes up goes down
Does anybody else have a very slow charging time? It nearly takes 2-4 hours to charge. Is this normal? This is plugged into the power outlet, not usb.

Yup. Completely normal.
Wow, that's fast... I have a Galaxy player with a smaller battery and it takes a full 8 hours to charge. Can't wait for my N7.
Try charging an iPad2 or the new iPad.
2-4hrs is not bad given the battery life.
Yup, just the normal super slow Nexus 7 charging.
Are you kidding me? It charges fast as hell! My iPad takes at least 8 hours to charge completely, this thing charges in like 3 hours. How much faster can it get?

Hello
Long time Hero user who switched to blackberry and now back to android. I've had note 2 for 3 months now and I'm actually disappointed from its battery level. Not that its not enough. .it just didnt live up to its expectations
Through constant whatsapp messaging only (today) 40% drained in 7-8 hours. . I know its a long time but shouldn't it last longer or is 3g that much of a battery usage?
Also does charging with a 2a non official charger might affect my battery? And with the time frames I have available for charging I can never get a full charge. .does that matter?
And is pile stocking on applications and games affecting my battery? Even if they are not open? (Currently using go power master for that)

Show some screen shots of the battery graph. I was just wondering what was your screen time to get a better idea.

You can click on that little chart to see a more detailed view of your battery consumption. Your battery life is a bit on the short side (compared to mine at least), Im guessing the screen is the culprit. Do you have brightness all the way down? How much screen time does the phone get?
@Shei77
For me is battery consumption pretty fine. It depends of course what I am doing with the phone through the day. For example yesterday after whole day "playing" with phone from time to time I had around 70%. I am chargin it when I go to sleep because still if I have in the morning 30-50% it wont make it through day when I dont have option to charge it. Just to add, I have Wifi and GPS always on.
If constant messaging for 7-8 hours means the screen being on for 7ish hours, you have ridiculously good battery life at 40 percent..

I'd say your battery life is fine, im guessing maybe even better than mine. Im doing 6h 37m right now with 69% left, H+/3G always on, with moderate screen time and a bit of gaming.
Huh..what about charging?
Also any tips for extending? Ram keeps filling up after some time..is it cause I have a lot of applications?

As shown from your screenshot your phone signals are really bad. That might be contributing to the drain of the battery.
I think your battery life is fine :good: Usually with my note 2 i can do 4 display hours and 1 day or more of battery life. 3g/h+ always on, lumi 50% all sync on, calls, gaming and web.
This is the current on screen which is a few hours after the first screenshots
What can I do about signals? And if I have a lot of apps do they consume battery through background?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Really, your battery life isn't that bad. The 7 or so screen time hours you'll get if that continues, is pretty good!
And to your other questions, charger type doesn't affect battery performance. Charging time should take around 2,5 hours from 0 to 100, if you're far away from that, the charger might be at fault.

Charging usually takes 3 hours for a full charge and according to my charging current its using 1698mah

I updated it just a couple of days ago I need an expert opinion on how good my battery's time is.
^No offence, but without screen on time a battery stats is just meaningless!
So kindly post your 'Screen on' time.
@shei77: You're on H+ and you're having almost three hours screen on time, with 60 odd percent left. That is very good battery life.
'Swyped' from my GT-N7100
Maybe a bit OT, but what I have noticed is that when the phone reports fully charged, Elixir widget still displays 1600mA being charged into the device? Also, when the battery is full at 100%, the phone is still pretty warm! I don;t remember my HTC did that? It was warm, but when it reached 100% it cooled down and was not hot anymore... I tend to keep phone in charger in the evening because I use wifi hotspot....
My battery life is awesome I'm on cm 10.1 rom with uneak kernel, cm 10.1 is smooth and great performance and great on battery life,
I have attached a screen shot of battery stats...

You must have a magical charger. Mine charges in about 2 hours with the stock charger at 1800 mah rate (max stock rate).

Mine charges faster than my Note 2 but not that fast. In general I am happy with the improvements seen.
It's strange that yours charges so fast? Most of the stuff I've read so far for charging with the stock N3 wall charger is that they're charging at around 35%/hr
How's yours doing so fast??

1 to 100 took me 2hrs and 15 minutes charging time.. but after 10 minutes idle of the phone, the battery went down to 98percent and stop there

I would have to say this is defiantly a understated feature of this phone! I mean it charges soooo much faster than the N2 did! Faster than any phone I have ever had! Amazing!
I have the same experience as the OP.. The phone charges pretty fast if your using the stock charger and cable

Mines charges under an hour from 10% down to fully charged especially if you don't use the phone while it's charging and even then my phone does the job. I'm pretty sure it varies phone to phone so take this with a grain of salt.

Can the note 3 battery be used in the note 2 and i717
i'm asking because i tried the s3 into my note an it worked perfectly I was wondering if I can buy an oem battery an for the note 3 an put it in my note 1
its possible
I have the same experience as OP. We need some hard data on this. What's the best app for monitoring charging? I use system monitor. I love the battery graph in my pull down menu. I'll post a screen shot from a full charge whenever I get a chance. (I have 87% now so it'll be awhile unless I find something good to download on thepiratebay)

Weird, I thought it was the same for everyone. Mines the same, phones on but with no use it charges to full battery under an hour when it's on red. I work at best buy mobile and customers have told me the same.
