Battery in 1% steps instead of 10%

Is it possible to get the battery steps in 1% steps instead of 10%?
Would be nice.

Search is your friend. But since I hate people who just say that, I will add:
Circle battery widget does.
I also think someone is working on a mod to change the default display, not sure if they have finished/were successful.

I think DG said it was a hardware issue not software so booooo.

also a happy circle battery widget user, couldn't stand it in just 10%

I am working on an app that uses same method as circle battery widget. It will place the battery % in the notification bar similar to battery minder esk apps. It will NOT replace the stock one. Tho it is possible sooner or later.
I hope to have a beta out later today.

Sounds great!
A small icon in the status bar is much better than a big widget on the homescreen!

here u go, try this http://www.mediafire.com/?bx7w8kuhlfc8v7a
shouldnt have to many bugs lol, let me know what u think.

The time left in the drop down is still all jacked. I have shutdown time:-9:-50AM, hours left:-27.81 5:18PM
*I had a super Beta Beta version installed previously and i clean install followed by a reboot cleared this oddity out

I just installed it and it's working great, but as a future update do you think you can remove the small icon above the battery % number and enlarge the actual number so it is easier to read? Basically, make the % number fill up the status bar vertically. Let me know!

Damn u pauly lol, vinay, yes that is planed. I just did this as it was the easiest
Method to go with. A better method is planed.

I gave it some time. And rebooted. Seems to be doing much better now. Ill give it a day and report back.
*EDIT I ran my battery down to 2% and has a shutdown time 30 minutes earlier that the actual time. it was back to reporting -.29 hours. up to that point is was fairly accurate. it did adjust itself well the more i used it. Which is to be expected.
That is one reason am not too fond with "predictive life" it changes with stress. i can run it hard for an hour and show 2 hours left. then let it set for an hour and it shows 4 hours. so i pick it up and use it hard and it dies in an hour.

Do we have some screen shots of this in action? Thanks in advance, from the other thread too, hah

It works but it doesn't look nice and the entry in the notification bar isn't necessary in my eyes but maybe you can change that soon
Thanks!

any update on this app? is it possible to replace the stock battery icon?

OTA Update 2.4.1

OTA update has come 2.4.1 nd i am very happy that they are giving updates and solving the issues nd bugs..but... nvidia will give any android update ever or we are now stuck on 4.4.2! ?

Nvidia has stated in a e-mail that we will get 4.4.3 so don't worry

Thats great thn but they have stated when because now android 5.0 L has released

Android L is still in development and we haven't had 4.4.3 or even 4.4.4 so lets give Nvidia some time!

I'm glad That Nvidia is putting out all these updates. I really really want the battery fix thoug, hopefully that update comes fast.

Well what is the problem with battery ?? Im having no problem with it. It gived me 15 to 20 hours of battery life in battery saving mode with normal use no games .

I really hope we have a shot with Android L. I just bought this tablet, and seeing the Moto G will get the update suggests that 1GB of RAM should be sufficient to run the new OS.

The problem is I always end up having to charge it after about two to three hours of use, in balanced mode, most of the time just watching Youtube videos. I am almost certain that they advertised much more battery life. The other problem I have is the meter in the notification menu just stops working randomly and I have to restart the tablet to fix it. maybe a defect in my system alone, but annoying nonetheless.

To me its sounding like you have a defective unit mate.

I posted in a few places there is definitely a battery issue I only got about 4 hours playing a game and sending some mails. for a 4100mah it seems less or is it about right? the screen brightness was at 30%, gangstar vegas total play time was about 2hrs 40min and the rest was email on the native email app. balanced mode.

Darn. Its a good thing I still have time to return it. I love the thing but maybe I'll go with a nexus 7 2013 next ttime I buy, just because of stability. I've had a lot of bugs on this one. ?

I keep trying to apply the OTA but it errors out saying there is a problem with Email.apk. Anyone else seen this problem?

Yes

Okay, I don't think its a defective unit because I tried using it on power saving mode all day today with music and reading and its still above the 70% mark. I think the bug is that the balanced setting drains a lot of battery.

Glad to hear that helped, I'll try when mine is (hopefully) returned after touch screen issues. I was considering installing juice defender app, which works wonders for extending my phone battery life, but will try power saving mode first.

7.1.1 (December security update) live now

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

It's official, pixel c is not a pixel device. No pixel features to be found

For me the downloaded OTA will not work to upgrade from the beta version. The ota has a time stamp of 4 november and the beta has a timestamp of 11 November . Running adb sideload "ota.zip" returns Error E3003: Can't install this package (<OTA timestamp>) over newer build (<beta timestamp>).
Edit: Refresh my memory. Is it the case that any reversion from beta to factory release requires a full install?

Is anyone else noticing severe battery drain after updating to NMF26H? I didn't have a problem with the developer preview releases but I lost 35% of my battery idling last night and just tested again and lost 15% in roughly for hours. Android OS, tablet idle and Android system seem to be the vaguely specified culprits.

Quite the opposite for me. Battery life seems better.

I'll keep my eyes open. Perhaps it was a one off. Also, I now seem to notice that "Cellular network signal" appears under the battery graph (always as a "red" no signal, obviously). Is this new? I don't recall seeing it there before given that the tablet has no cellular radio.

Nope

The culprit for battery drain seemed to be the TWC TV app (which I never even really use). Uninstalling it seemed to fix it.

I upgraded the system yesterday to 7.1.1 from 7.0 and night mode has disappeared, I have read in some places that the implementation of night mode has changed in a way that now requires driver support which is not present in this device.
Anybody knows a solution for this? Overlay apps like twilight are much worse that native night mode

its also does the same thing on mine , help!

Got my 7.1.1 OTA from the DP beta yesterday evening. Battery seems have improved when not in use. Haven't look ed at changes in this release to see if they did anything to sleep or doze functions.

Just picked up this device. So far so good

Welcome to this neck of the woods...

Exceptional battery life at idle with Beta Google Play Services (I think)

A few days ago I updated to the latest beta version of Google Play Services. Ever since then I have had very good battery life at idle. Prior to the update my Mate 9 would drain about 0.5% battery per hour at idle with 97% deep sleep time. With the update my idle drain is more like 0.1-0.2% per hour with the same deep sleep time. Yesterday it took 15 hours to drain 3% and today after almost 10 hours I am still at 100% (I've been busy at work the last few days so I havent been able to use my phone much). I am not entirely sure this improvement is due to the beta of Google Play Services but I didnt make any other changes to my phone.

Link please or can you just join the a beta program from the app?

Have you guys read the comments/reviews about Google Play Services on Google Play? I laughed, so, SO MUCH! Seriously, is it a meme? LOOOL!
Anyway, got the beta, will test tomorrow when at 100%

HA HA HA. I've never taken the time to read the comments for this. Very funny indeed! The scary thing I bet some of those people who commented were not kidding. My fav comment:
"Super doper boring Useless app in the world.. Nonsense"

Well well... Interesting...

@tboooe, I am also interested to install the beta version. What is the percentage of Googly Play in battery consumption settings?

I installed the Beta yesterday. Left the phone at 46% at 11:30pm. At 6:50am, it was down to 44%.
I had Bluetooth and mobile data on while WiFi was off. I'm on stock C432B194 (MHA-L29).
Too early to say, but I'm seeing very flat drainage curves when the phone is not in use. Would've posted a screenshot had I not restarted this morning before remembering to take one.

Good feedback. So is what you are seeing an improvement?

Here's a short window, but you can see the flat curve when the phone was idling for the past 2 hours.
It is improved idling. Here I had everything on: GPS, Bluetooth, mobile data and WiFi.

Here's another screenshot attachment (notice the idling).

There was an update a few days ago. I havent had a chance to test and compare the idle battery life to the previous version. Any try it?

what about SOT with it?

Still a monster saver when idle. Noice!

Battery Life with Pie, heres my experience.... let's hear yours?

MAJOR Increase here in Battery life with Android Pie... Anybody Else?
Or is it just me? I'm getting at least 2 additional hours (if not more) of screen on time per day after taking the OTA to Pie on Monday... For Example...

Yeah, that's not terrible I reckon?

Which theme is this ?

Battery life seems better after I flashed Nathan's 3.0 kernel!

My battery life is quite a bit worse. Nothing has changed in my use of apps. On 8.1 July I would have just under 50% battery remaining. I use a slow charge dock at night next to my bed with Sleep as Android running, and back to 100% in the morning.
Now on 9.0 I am at less that 30% end of day, with the slow charge dock sometimes it just maintains charge, but often it decreases. This morning I was at 12% with 24% showing last night at bedtime.
When I plug into the dock, I check that charging shows on the lock screen and led light. I manually turn of always on display and enable immersive display with tiles in the pull down menu to insure the screen being blacked out at night, even though Sleep as Android runs.

Was everyone's great battery life with OTA or Full Image?

My Battery life has gone for worse after installing P all fresh.. Battery life was good when i was on beta, once i moved to Final release of P and wiped everything for fresh start.. battery life been worse.. need to charge battery every 8-9 hours.. usage is same as i had earlier . I have even uninstalled many apps which were present on 8.1 and P beta...
Pretty disappointing.. Not sure if its only mine Pixel 2 XL.

Battery is def worse for me. I did OTA at first and then clean install. Same result. My battery life is better in 8.1 with always in display vs 9.0 WITHOUT always in display. Idle drain is worse also on 9.0 for me. I downgraded back to 8.1

Battery life for me has been better overall as well. Not a dramatic increase, as it was already pretty good on O, but it is noticeable.

Battery is not good for me on 9.0 why are some getting good and others not? Same hardware and software?

Hardware yes, software no, we all use different apps.
I'm trying to track it down, but the Battery section is showing nothing. I just installed BBS and granted the adb permissions hoping that will show me something.

And even if two people have the exact same apps installed, everybody has different usage of each app.

How are you getting this kind of battery. I used to get that on my galaxy S8+ but can't get 8 hrs sot on my pixel 2xl. I usually get maybe 7 max. Any tips?

Im not seeing any difference with the new feature adaptive battery, its neither worse or better

So in other words... Some ppl the worse than before, some better than, and others are getting about the same, all to varying degrees... That's nuts for real...
