The image speaks for itself, but I'll add some info. I have a SetCPU profile for screen off that sets it to 245 min and max, and I haven't been using the phone hardly at all the past two days. Wifi has been on the entire time.
Normally, after 8 hours of light use, my phone would be dead with Android System taking up about 40% of the battery, and the three radio entries taking up about 16% each.
I've been using CyanogenMod 6.1.1 since the day it came out, with it's built-in kernel, not Pershoot's. I've done nothing else custom. The only thing that I can correlate with this change in battery life is a new version of SetCPU came out a couple days ago.
Or maybe it's just an unrelated fluke, and tomorrow whatever battery-eating bug exists in the system will rear its ugly head again. I dunno. All I know is I've never seen battery life like this on my G2.

101% yaaaaay I can add

What on earth!?

Screen not even registering as using any?
most of my usage is screen for 60%+ (maybe 2 hrs on)
and 15~18 hours tops!

You still geting great battery life I have the same setup and battery life is average not as good as 6.1

I do not mean to highjack your thread but I have a question. For the cell standby power consumption, what is registered as the amount of time with no signal? I am in a full HSPA+ area and it still tells me that 50% of the time my phone has no signal, how is that possible? Thank you for your responses.

I managed 56 or 59 hours once and the display wasn't on the list either. I mentioned this in another thread but it was generally ridiculed and dismissed

i lose about 50% of battery with hspa on during a 8 hour shift. Of course random facebook and texting is going on.

I noticed an improved battery life with the unofficial Gingerbread builds. Did Google finally get it right?

That has been my experience, though I'm still stuck using the stock HTC sense since I updated to 1.72 before rooting.
Whenever I check battery use, the Display is ALWAYS the highest consumer, by a large margin. I usually see 60-70% Display, and the cell standby, etc are only a few percent. Now I'm really upset I can't root it for the forseeable future.
Did you just not ever touch the phone at all? I mean, the display isn't even listed!!?!?

As I said, I was barely using the phone at all.
Right now I'm at 95% after 10 hours of non-use. I don't remember this ever being possible in the past.
Even when I actively use the phone (at least in the past) Display would never be very high. Android System was always #1 with the radios beneath that, and Display somewhere around 6%, as I recall.
In the time it took me to write this post mostly in Swype, I lost 2% so my crazy battery life seems limited to the screen being off (with the corresponding very low cpu speed). Still, it's never been this good before.

lol the title is hilarious just had to say

I bet the lcd being not used plus wifi instead of 3G is the reason. Plus, I think it's witchery not wizardry, lol! Maybe both... whatever they are both hilarious! Ah, the days of yore!

[Q] sharp aquos battery

I bought the sharp aquos crystal and really like this, however the battery life is not very good. Are there any tips to increase battery life,

went through all the usual steps
Yeah I've had horrible stand by times and because of that my battery screen on time (sot) has been usually 2.5-3.5 hours. Many people claim 5-6 hours sot. Android system is eating a lot of battery up. Any help would be appreciated.

Greenify from the Play Store helps a lot with battery life; however, without root it will only hibernate user apps. But that's usually enough to keep FB, Twitter, Skype, etc, from running in the background constantly...
Screen on time: that depends on how bright you have your screen, but in about 45% setting and about 4 hours SOT, the wife is getting well over 24 hours on a charge. Your mileage may vary...

H,
I don t know if it can help, but my battery life is great, but , if I plug my phone on my PC and the PC is down (automatic sleep for example), the battery is very very bad...

If having battery problems try Snapdragon Guru from the playstore. It is made to help battery saving on snapdragon processors. Enjoy

Well...

I had the same issue had screen times of between 2-3 hours. What I had to do to get to 4-5 hours screen time was disable "stay on" the qualcomm location extra, and motion turn on and off of the display. There is definitely wake up issues with this phone so just make sure to kill processes that use location especially google apps like maps after using them. I also downloaded juice defender to help manage the data because I live in not the best coverage area and that eats up battery too. Try those settings restart the phone and see if it helps you.

I think the battery life on this phone is ridiculously good. I get 5-6 hours SOT with LTE on. Location on Battery saving. I use no battery "savers" because they don't work. For a comparison my nexus 4 can only muster 3-4 hours SOT on a good day. Not sure what you people are doing with your phones.

You are crazy if you are complaining about battery life. Unless you have a faulty device I don't think there are many 5" screen phones out there that can deliver such great performance.
Still at 24% with modarate use, can easily get 2 days out of it.

My battery consumption is just like that. It's very good!
However, I do use "Lux" from the market , to control screen brightness and tones, depending on time of day.
Far better than Android's built-in light control

I'm getting pretty good life. Greenify was the 1st app I put on here though lol

Without any battery app with stock laucher, i get 4-5+ SOT.
When I first get it, only get 2-3 SOT. But It start to be longer once it "settle in".

My battery life got progressivly worse as time went on. Sharp will change it for you if you send it in after printing the shipping labels and info for it (meaning they have to say, "Yes, the battery needs replacing). I don't have time for that! Also, my little square that indicates if phone has been water damaged was touched by my own moist little finger so, they'll say warranty is void. I did find a replacement battery. Anyone have any tips or pointers on replacing it? I've never owned a phone with an internal battery that couldn't be removed and i don't want to mess it up.

Mine has the flashing red LED stating the internal battery isn't being charged. The damn thing isn't even a month old.... It's so much BS. SCREW AQUOS. Asshats...

Just browsing facebook, reddit, email every now and then, I just figured with 3000mah battery i'd be getting 4.5-5 hrs sot , my nexus 5, with its 2300 mah, was getting 3 hours of sot, thats main reason I upgraded, could my battery be bad? or is this normal.. when I look online most ppl get 4 1/2 - 5 hours, ofcourse thats coming from the initial reviews an ppl running kitikat and stuff, just like to know what everyone else is getting w basic useage, no gaming/video streaming

I have never got more then 3-4 hours of SOT on my G2, i've used it for almost 2 years now. There were occasions where i got 5 hours of SOT, but those were exceptions(On Wifi, with very low brightness).. But then I'm a heavy user - lots of apps installed, around 2 hrs of music on my daily commute, Lots of time on G+/Instagram/Twitter/FB & 1-2 hours of calls. This combined with flashing of new ROMs every month or so. People posting 4-5 hours of SOT usually have lots of options disabled - Reduce brightness settings to lowest, Sync background data disabled, GPS disabled, On WiFi all the time, etc..
@mistororange Anything more then 3 hours of SOT, while you are using your phone through 3g/4g networks is pretty good, in my opinion. Only if you see drastic reduction in your battery life, then you should worry.

Battery drain with light use on S7 Edge... Is this normal?

Hi everybody. I recently purchased a S7 Edge, coming from an OPO. I wanted a top range smartphone and I choose it because of the enthusiastic reviews I had read on the Internet, especially about camera and battery. While I've been very happy about camera, it's absolutely not the same about battery.
The phone doesn't last more than 12-15 hrs of light use (no games, no 'heavy' apps, no Bluetooth, screen brightness at about 30%, most of background backup disabled). This morning, after a full-night charge, it dropped from 100% to 99% just in a minute of Twitter browsing.
I checked in the stats and apparently there is no app draining the battery; yesterday the top energy consumption came from the screen.
In addition, it gets easily warm on the screen and on the back (not hot), and I'd like to know if it is normal. I'm using it without any case, just as I did with my OPO, but the latter has always been cold, even during heavy use.
I'm posting some screenshots about the battery stats in my Settings

Need more than 10 minutes of battery stats to make any judgement. I suggest you post the stats from 100% until ca. 10%, with your normal usage.
It will give a better overview. Other monitoring apps will give much more detail, but start with this.
Are you rooted?

I've installed GSam Battery, I'll post the results at around 10% (even if I haven't used the phone a lot today). No, it is not rooted. I bought it a week ago!

I'm sorry, but I think I'm old enough to recognize scam apps, and GSam is not one of them.

Do use the Samsung and Microsoft app? What country are you in someone from your area might be able to shed light on warranty situation after tripping Knox.
If tripping the Knox flag has no effect on your warranty (like here in NZ). You could look at installing a ROM.

Screen on time

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the OPPO Find X2 Pro before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

4-6h SOT with 120Hz adapative and QHD+ (adaptive)
Drains a bit faster compared to my P20 Pro, but performance is outstanding

Yeah, I'm on average usage. Max can get 4.5 hours SOT only. With fhd+ 120hz

i'm very worried about it now... i haven't done 3-4 cycles yet (2nd at the moment), but i'm on 4-5 hours sot with mostly being on wifi at the moment.. which is worrysome.

I get about 3-5h with Resolution and refreshrate at adaptive

Yup that sounds about right. I'm on mobile data today. 2.5h sot with only 20% left.. So I'm returning the phone end of this month

.A24 increased it to 5-7h SOT for me

Full Res. and 120Hz. Heavy usage. Great Battery [emoji106]

According to the reviews, first couple of days the battery endurance is sub-par/average because the phone learns your habits and adapts slowly.
After a week or so you should be getting better results.
I'll report the stats when I get mine, should be soon.

Second run just under 50% battery web usage YouTube Instagram .. seems decent

Mine is looking very decent so far.

Well just cleared my first week average tops around 5 ish hours generally.
Sat at home watching dark Netflix latest result :-
Dark mode no power saving display auto refresh set to 120hz

You should not drain your phone to single digit numbers. Don't also charge beyond 85%.
This is what Battery Scientists say.

You might be right , however how realistic is it do as suggested in the real world ??
Is that something you practice yourself ?
If I were to do that I would be wiping the best part of 2 hours sot of my device which is impractical.
