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).
I unlocked my phone, rooted it and installed Fish n Chips ROM.
My phone seems to have very poor battery life. I fully charged it to 100%, unplugged it, played a game for a very short while and I lost 10% battery withint 10-15 mins.
The battery just seems like a time bomb that doesn't last very long at all.
I've only had the phone 2 days now...
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.
Im guilty. Ive had posts on here about poor battery life. My phone isnt even a year old and the battery life just had become horrible. To the point it was 2 recharges per day.
I blamed the OS and updates because it just didnt seem like the battery should be gone. I was getting 9-10 hours on average.
After updating my LG Thrive to 4.04 from 2.35 I have seen horrible battery life.
Although I had already done a factory reset I decided to try removing the battery to see if that would help.
Well I'll get straight into it, no matter which ROM I flash battery life sucks. I've gone from OA to CM7.2 with OC kernel now.
Just today I charged my phone fully, took it off the charger and played music ever since. I take a look at my phone and its at 70% after two hours with the screen off.
Hello all,
Ever since the Jelly bean update I have been getting terrible battery life. I had all of my settings turned off and my screen down to the lowest setting. After a while I just got sick of not being able to use my phone so I bought an extended battery off of ebay for 12 bucks. Take a look at these screen shots.
I've been using several custom roms on my Defy green lense and i noticed an issue with the battery life.
It happens that every time i fully charge the phone, when it goes to 70% battery life it instantly drop to 50%, battery drain, even with STOCK Froyo.
But if i charge it to 69%, not fully 100% or over 70%, it goes normal...
Is the battery bricked ?
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.
