Hi i'm loosing about 4% in 5hours in standby .. is that normal ? My signal is very good ! i'm using only whatsapp and some games.. Sync is disabled , location too .. I don't understand why i loose like 1% every hour ... my phone was litteraly on my desk and didn't move !
1% battery drain in 1 hour.. I think it's okay..
It's perfect. What do you expect from a quad processor and a lot of sensors? That's about 100 hours or 4 days of stand by time. It's really ok, you have no reason to worry. Enjoy your Smart-phone!

With my nexus 5 everything stock which has a bad reputation with battery life, standby time was something like 0.33% for 1 hours ! (same configuration as my S5, sync off/location off/almost same app) i was loosing 2-3% over night.. that's why i'm worried

Screen on time is a huge difference though. I had a Nexus 5 too.

Anyone else noticing that the battery percentage goes down incredibly fast when screen is on ?

i've actually been pleasantly surprised at the battery life on mine! Over two hours of screen time midway through my day yesterday and i was just above 60%
Have been advised to turn cell broadcast off

My advice, get Tasker to disable mobile data and WiFi when screen is off. Disable Google Now. Disable NFC. Disable GPS until you actually use it. Enjoy your 5+ hour screen on battery life.

exactly my thinking.
Why the hell does the Nexus consume soooo much battery ? I have turned most of the stuff off but you dont get any Google Now, emails etc dont work correctly, - totally useless.
My S2 is better than this.

yeah its worse than my Galaxy S2. - battery stats say its the screen but that's on auto and its already dim as hell. When off it consumes power if WiFi is on.

And? Most people don't seem to get this: Say your battery depletes 1% for every 3 minutes you have the screen on, that's 300 minutes, or 5 hours, of screen time. Which is more than acceptable.

Yeah def better than the gnex which was rather good too. I took my phone off of charge @ 7:20am and put it on charge when it had 4% left @ 1:30am. So pretty much lasted 18 hours with medium use.

2% streaming video, that right, 40 minute netflix = 80% battery gone
NFC and cell broadcast off, gps off, screen at 50% brightness

Hi guys,
Is anyone else get terrible battery life with 3g and data on even on standby? I believe the phone function drains the battery and it lasts only 2 days or so on standby. I constantly have the tab on flight mode with wifi enabled and battery is much improved to about 1 week standby. Anyone else? I am on stock 4.0.4.
Thanks
Wtf r this guy even serious? I wish i had 1 day standby, what a joke

Hi Iong. We are talking about a tablet here, not a phone. Tablets should have 1 week standby at least. The battery drain with 3g and phone on is unacceptable. I think the reason is the connection to phone signal which is constant.
Mate 1 day pr 2 day standby is a lot, given the fact you install many program and it constantly connect to tinternet to check for updates notifs etx. You dont have 1 week standby whatsover, forget it. Big tablet big baterry big screen. Ot all goes scaling together

So 'l2_hsic' and 'batt_work wake lock' are the 2 processes keeping my table awake for 5 hours in total since yesterday. Any idea of what these do?

most likely is that one or more of your apps is causing the problem. try a reset and see if the problem goes away. if it does, install apps one by and and check which one is the problem
Use juice defender ultimate in tablet mode. I can go several days idle time and lose almost no battery.

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)

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.

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...

Thanks for your response buddy.
Yes , about 5 hours ( actually 4-5 hours and mostly 4:30 ) of "screen on" plus using of wifi (only when I want to use the internet ).
Then in your point of view it is normal and my battery hasn't any problem?
Thanks

Surfing uses moderate battery....since its always loading images and whatnot. I can watch about 7 hours of video, about 5 of surfing, less than 4 playing most games, and 5 or 6 of reading. Those are about my averages anyway.
I get about 24 to 48 hours on a charge with our usage patterns anyway.
Hope that helps! And no, I don't think you have a battery problem.
You can flash roms and kernels, underclock/undervolt and tweak like mad to get a couple more hours out of battery....but doesn't seem worth the trouble. To me anyway.

You can try looking at your battery to see whether it had any lump or swelling. Mine had one and it was so slight and hard to see but after replacing the battery, battery life was great again.

the thing is also that you are using a Exynos device with Octa Core Processor. i dont know the difference between battery life by that since i have the qualcomm based phone. it may use a lot more power i think (correct me if im wrong because i never used a octa core phone). i do have a extra battery as well so that im full charged for the whole day. so i dont really need to worry about battery for my daily usage. and the phone and battery were purchased last year when the phone got released here in the philippines. :good:

Hi mate,
The only way to know for sure what is going on your phone is to use an app like BBS
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809
Let it run for a few hours and check the logs for wakelocks , works better if you are root but it will work also in nonroot devices

The screens you are posting give little details.
My guess is that your battery is wearing out and you should try a new one.
