Monitor what is using my battery - X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My battery has not been very good since I received the phone, I barely get through 12 hours and about 2 1/2 hrs SoT. Will using better battery stats help me find out what's going on or is there a new app that is better?

Battery

I have to say it, the battery life on my tab stinks.
Regardless of Rom or clock speed I am lucky if I get 4 and a half to 5 hours! Pretty much constant use.
Is this normal?
Anyone got any ideas how to improve this?
Cheers

Are you streaming something for 4-5 hrs? If not, Check your running apps. You should be getting better than this. I get right around 8 hrs or internet, email and such. It does drop while playing games though.
Since you're rooted, I'd also wipe battery stats and fully charge to see if that improves it.
Yeah that's not normal at all. I usually get at LEAST 10 hours of battery life with pretty heavy use.
I get 10-12 hours with heavy jse....so thats not at all normal....r u overclocked?

Benn flashing a lot? Sometimes it takes a bit of use to get good batt life. This was the case with my phone.

Battery life not that great?

Hi guys, I didn't see a thread about battery life, so I thought I'd start one to see how other people's battery life was.
I have an unrooted nexus 7 and after using it a few weeks I finally decided to see how long the battery would last before dying. I wasn't very impressed.
My battery lasted 3 days and 12 hours with 5 hours of screen on time. I didn't use it heavily or anything. Light browsing, a little bit of reading, almost no videos, no music, screen brightness at "low" setting and I even have the wifi turned off when the device is asleep! That seems pretty underwhelming to me. I am syncing 3 gmail accounts though, so maybe that is it. I'm just suprised by the 5 hours of screen time. I thought this thing was supposed to do 9 or 10 hours (that's what some of the reviews like Engadget said). No?
What is your battery life like? Is this normal?
So you got over 3 days of battery life? That seems pretty good... im a little confused when you say 9 to10 hours at the end of your post though.

I am able to only get 6 hours off my Nexus 7. I play 1 hour of games and the rest is browsing. Sometimes I watch videos, but even without, I can't seem to get more than 6 hours on low brightness.
To people are are getting 8-10 hours, did you let your battery drop to nearly dead? I have never let mine drop below 25% except for one time. Some people reported their N7 died at 20% so I let mine reach that percentage.

Lol, obviously not looking hard enough
Plenty of threads about battery life, gotta love that search box!

Lol 3.5 days with 5 hours of battery life is pretty good. The 8-9 hour estimate doesn't account for 3.5 days worth of idle drain. You can get 10 hours if you use it for 10 straight.

+1, I too was disappointed to see that I was getting "only" 5-6 hours screen time with my 2-3 days usage.
So I dug a little deeper and found that all the 9-10 hour battery life reports was the device being used constantly over around a day.
I guess the idle time and sleep walking the device does kind of effects the battery life. Same with my phone, the beast Incredible S, in 1 day I can get 4-4.5 hours screen time, but if I stretch it over 2 days it only gives me 3 1/2
So I agree about the idle thing
Luminosité at 10%...
it's a 7" anyway(smaller battery to fit in)... can't ask for more.

Battery life

Hello I got this nexus 4 days ago and read it battery life suppose to be around 10 hour but I know it will be less. I'm getting about five. Curious what's everyone else is getting. Please post your battery life here.

I am described as a power user. I could engage in some heavy browsing and gaming and having the screen on all day and then let the tablet sit overnight off the charger, but I'd have to charge it late noon the next day. I usually land in the 1 day 2-8 hours range according to system battery stats. If you believe your battery sucks, roll back to 4.1.2 and your life will be phenomenal!
I'm not sure what tricks those users with 10hrs SOT have done, but I never managed to get more than about 6-7 hrs SOT. I thinks those highest results have been done with wifi off, brightness at lowest level and sounds off etc...

Battery Life

Can someone who is getting more than 2 days worth of battery post their settings? I get a little over 12 hours with roughly 4 hours of screen time. I leave my Bluetooth on all day because I have an Android Wear watch and I usually try to keep location off as well. Does anyone have any big recommendations to conserve battery?

For what it's worth I get pretty mediocre battery life. 12 hours or less with moderate heavy usage. My turbo 1 had superior battery. Hopefully marshmallow fixes this.

Bad battery life no matter what

So, I had a couple good days off amazing battery life and then went back to appalling battery life. No matter what I flash, stock kdz, v20a via twrp. Fulmics, stock nougat. Nothing works. Now I'm going to replace the battery. If that doesn't fix the issue I'll be at a loss.
Anyone else? Is this a bad batch.
Btw SoT is 4 hours on normal usage.
What is your "normal usage"?
4 hours could be OK depending of what is your usage... Also, you should give some days to the battery calibrates itself...

Normal usage is just texting every now and again with some YouTube and chrome mixed in. Definitely not a rogue app, about 2 weeks ago I had by far the best battery life with 11 hours SoT with my regular usage, then I changed nothing and I went back to 4 hours or less
Install the BetterBatteryStats for check a little more in detail what could be causing that issue. Could be some wakelocks from some app installed, but that app should give you more details...
I'm also a little like you, but for me i never had more that 4 hours of SoT in a brand new G6. I notice some big drains when using instagram or something that have camera permissions (even if the camera is not used at all).
