Gotta figure out your wake locks. I lost 0-1% overnight last night.
Best bet is to download better battery stats and gsam battery info. Also CPU spy is helpful for figuring if your tablet is deep sleeping or not.

Also turn off NFC and WiFi. That will help a ton

I've turned off NFC, Location Services and only sync the folders I need in Gmail and i'm down to about 5% overnight. I'll try setting the wifi to sleep when the screen is off and see how that goes.
How accurate are battery stats on the Nexus 10?
Hello everyone,
My S2 only last for 10-13 hours and it drains battery too fast. Tried everything and nothing happened.
In my phone i disabled almost everything which drain battery.
No Facebook
No auto syn of Gmail
Access location is off.
GPS Off
Soft key light/Vibration off
No skype
Disabled Accu weather app
Disabled many others bloat ware
Brightness is set at almost zero level
Better Battery Stats show connectivity wake lock. i think ghis the main problem for drain.
And plz tell me how can i set my phone to only gsm. There is no option for that in phone. In setting it says GSM / wcdma and only wcdma. I set it at gsm/wcdma. Am from Pakistan and here there is no 3g/wcdma.
And if by dialing *#*#4636#*#* i choose gsm, it comes back to gsm/wcdma. Is it draining battery?
<nvm, didn't read properly...>

what ROM are you using ??
What!?
You wrote "My S2 only last for 10-13 hours and it drains battery too fast."
On attached screenshot you have 80% left after 6 hours of usages whereas 48% is used by Screen and 17% is used by Boat Browser.
You have to expect about 1~1½ % drain per hour ... even if you don't use your phone.
Screen drains a lot depending of your amount of Brightness! If you can get 4 hours Screen On, your happy.
From what I can see ... your battery time is totally normal!
I have Stock rom ICS 4.0.4
My cellphone is branded version and it comes from 3 Mobile UK.

no its not normal.. today i charged it and not use it for 2 hours.. i put it on airplane mode and leave it for 2 hours after 100% charge, to check the partial wakelocks.
I thought this time connectivity service wakelock doesn't appear but it does.
i thought connectivity service wakelock is due to mobile signal but when i put it on airplan mode for 2 hrs this partial wakelock still appear.

Hmm , I am not a Fan of ICS though, but the battery time which you have shared (Just Saw it) LOL , it is totally fine , and secondly , use a safe kernel to root the phone (PhilZ Kernel) link is in my signature , and then Flash NeatROM Lite v4.0 , my battery lasts easily 18-20h and i am a heavy user of the phone with Calls , Messaging , FB , Twitter, Whatsapp, Viber & Tapatalk

PLS STOP with all this Juice Defender nonsense! A task killer often will drain your battery even more ... some processes will just restart again after you have killed it.
On newer Android version (GB and ICS) I haven't found any task killers that actually prolonged my battery time.
Adjust your screen brightness as low as possible, use a dark backgrounds and themes, get rid of unnecessary Widgets and Live Screen backgrounds, Sync Mail, Calendar, Twitter only when needed ... and then you will be fine :good:

the 1positive with mine so far is the battery. i go all day (12-14hrs) with moderate use and still have 30% charge when i plug it in.
That's terrible. You got an app freaking out. I noticed a huge drop in battery life when I put on a different sms app.

Held awake for 3 hours because your screen was on for almost that long. Right?

one thing that really kills this battery is the setting under location access "wifi and mobile network location" if you have that enabled google services keep the phone awake and drain the battery. I disabled that and my battery last so much longer now.
Well guys, something is still eating my battery alive. I went to bed with over 40% battery and I woke up with 7% left.
Here are my screenshots from better battery stats. Can anyone figure out what's eating me alive?

Yeah, good tip. If that doesnt work, go to Maps and disable history and location reporting as well. Might want to disable Wifi and mobile network location under the global location settings as well. This prevents other programs from eating up battery trying to access location when GPS is off. Restart your phone after diasbling any of these, then check battery life
Ok guys, here is how my battery has been doing since I made the changes that everyone suggested. Am I in good shape?

Lol nice. The only complaint that I have about this is that I had to turn off every single location based setting in the phone. I've never had to do that on my previous phones. It never drained like this on my S4 with those settings on.
The root of my complaint is that I can't even get weather updates on my widget because it is all turned off. And I always like to have the weather widget on my main screen. Which single setting can I turn on to get weather updates? I will leave the other ones off.

Power management wakelocks in the kernel is a placeholder for partial wakelocks. Look at the partial wakelock list for details. I had a terrible *backup* partial wakelock that had a start count of 3000 within 8 hrs!!! It was killing my bat. Check yours, it might be that same if its not the location wakelocks acting up again
Had the phone just 2 days and noticed that the Android System is taking most of battery. I am managing 3.5 hours on full brightness. I am happy with that but I am wondering why the Android System is taking up so much. Any ideas?
