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 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).
Hi all, I have a problem with my laptop battery and ubuntu karmic, turns out battery life is VERY low, If I get an hour and a half of battery life Im lucky1!!! any help regarding this??? In windows I have like 5 hours or more so I guess its a configuration issue.
thanks in advance!

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!
I'm not sure if I've used the term script right here but essentially Im looking for the screen brightness on my laptop to automatically go to 0 when the AC is plugged out?
Also I've seen a few threads on how to get more life out of your battery on this but they were for older versions of Ubuntu (im running 11.10), but if someone can vouch for them I'll give them a go as I really would like to g
I have recently returned to Ubuntu after using windows XP. One thing I have noticed is that my battery life has drastically decreased from about 3 hours (on windows XP) to slightly less than one hour (on Ubuntu 12.04) on a charged battery.
I have trouble with battery life on ubuntu 12.10
Before I installed ubuntu 12.10, ı was user of ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
My computer is HP Probook 4530s. On 12.10 my battery life is less than 1.5 hours but on 12.04 my battery life is 2.30 - 3.00 hours.
Actually, İt sounds me crazy because sometimes i had to use my laptop portable without ac power.
Could anyone suggest anything about my problem?
I really like Ubuntu, and I want to work with it always instead of windows. But the problem I find is that the battery runs out very fast (< 2 hours) when I use Ubuntu. It would have been great if I could get like 3 - 4 hours of battery life.
My windows provides me 4.5 - 5 hours.
