I just got my first Android phone and its a Galaxy Nexus running Jelly Bean. The first two days I was getting around 4-5 hours of battery life and then started reading up on this forum and did a bunch of suggested changes like turning off NFC, location services etc. Also, downloaded Juice Defender and now the battery life is around 7 hours.
I know we have a lot of battery life threads and I absolutely love this phone but mine is not getting good battery life. I'm an advanced android user, I know it well and I do know that some devices just have bugs which kill battery life.
First, here's the constants: I keep wifi/BT/GPS on 100% of the time. This was true when battery life was good, and now that battery life is bad. Disabling these will improve battery life, but will not fix my problem.
When the phone is sleeping overnight, I used to get 8-12% battery usage over about 8 hours.
I've got a stock S3 running nova launcher, but unrooted. i was typically getting around 14-20 hours battery life from a charge, with between 3-4.5 hours of screen-on.
i think it dates from the jelly bean update, but recently my battery life has dropped significantly...
Hi all.
I want to buy a Samsung Galaxy S ii. This link claims that the Galaxy S ii Plus, running Jelly Bean, has a better battery time than the original S ii running Gingerbread and Ice Cream Sandwich. However, the article doesn't compare the S ii plus to the S ii running JB.
I've seen lots of battery life forums, and most of them show great battery life (over 12 hours) with lots of screen time. I'm not even in an LTE area, but I get very good signal. My screen brightness is at about 30% and I have two e-mail accounts (Exchange push and Gmail sync).
Hello,
I was wondering which rom you guys could recommend for better than stock battery life? Seems like a lot of the roms are tweaked for smoothness and speed not battery life. Currently on d3rpICS but the battery life isn't so great...barely getting 8 hours with 1 hour on screen time. If anyone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
So I usually get pretty decent battery life, as in it lasts me from morning until the evening, although it's just about out of juice by the time that I get home from work. For that reason, I picked up the extended battery last week for $25. It works great. I still have about 35% remaining when I get home now.
Hi All,
Recently switched from an iPhone to HTC One X and I am quite disappointed so far. Does anyone also endure poor battery life with your HTC One X?
I am not running much applications in the background either, if I charge my phone to 100%, I go to bed and wake up its 80% without me even touching the phone...
