My battery life seems far too short. If I remove my phone from charge at 6am it's got very little life left by 10pm. 16 hours is pretty poor... No WiFi or BT, but I do have reasonably high usage of around 15-20% perhaps.
I did read something about Quick Calendar being a bit of a drain, but I really like this widget, so I don't really want to lose it.
I don't have all that many apps installed, maybe 10-15. How does this battery life compare to everyone elses? Is there anything I can do to extend it?
mine last about the same. I am using the internet alot & widgets like twitter & flickr as well as watching films/listening to music. To be honest I think that this battery is pretty good seeing as how much I use.
When I compare this to my Diamond which i was using a lil bit less by way of features I am truly impressed with the stamina they have given to the stock battery.
That being said if they ever release an extended battery I will be buying that in a heart beat
Generally I think it has decent battery life, but its changeable. Sometimes I wake up in the morning and the battery has drained overnight from nearly full to totally empty, but sometimes there is no indicated overnight drain based on the battery meter.
I think the battery meter is probably about as accurate as the one on my Diamond (ie not accurate at all)! I get the same battery life from my Hero if not more as I did on my Diamond with the extended battery which considering I do a lot more with my Hero is impressive.
I think the battery is pretty good considering all it's doing.
When I have it on, playing mp3s and HSDPA and wifi all day, I'm lucky to get 12 hours. I mean literally MP3s all day though, and since I'm at work having a usb cable into my laptop isn't a big problem, which removes the battery problem.
Today I've had limited internet use (mostly just 2g email polling, with about 30 minutes of whatever 3g exists in the bowels of wiltshire) and, as I've just noticed about 3 hours of GPS. It says it's used about a quarter of it's battery. Used as a simple phone, I'm sure it would last more than 3 days, but why bother?. As a pure email device, maybe just under 2, and as an always racing internet/music/gps beasty 1 day.
I'm happy with it.
Have you tried intstalling taskiller to get rid of those apps using power in the background?
My battery life is terrible. I fully charged my hero and unpluged it 8 hours ago. Since then i've made 10 minutes of calls, around 45 minutes of browsing (with 15 minutes using wifi), and 'played' about with it for around 30 minutes. My battery is down to 20%. I don't think this is good at all because i haven't used it that much.
edit: I also use taskiller to close apps after im finished with them.
Yeah, I use taskiller, nice app. I've also installed something called Power Manager v1.5.9 but I'm not really sure how it helps... if it does...
Woah I started doing a Battery Saving /Speed up Tips thread last night - Just posted it - Any good stuff post on there... Plus there might be stuff you've not done yet (Tho its pretty straightforward stuff that I reckon you'll have done already Ya never know tho)
Dayz xx
I found the first 3 charges only gave me a day (but this was when hammering the phone for the first few days), after the 4th charge and dropping to my normal useage i get 2 - 3 days, which is just better than my Tytn2.
I use my hero as my works phone and make about 40 minutes of phone calls on a 12 hour shift, it also picks up my emails and does about 30 minutes of browsing during that time, and by the time i get home it has about 30% of battery left which isn't too bad, and is much better than my diamond.
Things seem to be improving for me too now. Also, I took of Quick Calendar which people were suggesting was eating battery...

I just bought a Droid X2, but have decided to take it back for an LTE phone before the change in unlimited data.
I really don't like the way the charge looks, but it seems to be just as good as the TB. The TB has the likely potential to have a better community and better roms.
However I cannot have a phone that cant hold a charge for a whole day. And I do keep my phones for the 2 year duration of the contract, so whatever I get I need to be happy with.
I get the idea that the TB lasts between 4 and 8 hours. Is this a hardware issue, or is it the ROM which would be fixed as time progresses?
It is pretty bad. If you live in a 4G area, you should get the extended battery.
There are some settings tweaks, especially in the stock ROM, that help tremendously. The notification/background data is what kills the battery.
I always get at least 8 hrs with normal to heavy use.
But if your streaming video constantly, yeah like 4 hrs.
Most I have seen is around 20 hrs.
Seems like it always dies with about 4 hours of awake time or actual usage.
In a 4G area. And I think it will get better with hopefully a new OTA.

If you are going to play with ROM's, standard battery life is real bad. I loose about 25% of the battery, 4G downloading, then flashing 1 ROM!
Add 2 hours worth of on anf off fiddling with the screens and setups takes it down to 40% remaining, then I have to turn off wifi, and 4G to get through the workday, ending <10%. If I do 2 ROM's, i'm dead before lunch. Gotta get a cable for work.
Get the extended battery. Mine lasts typically a day and a half with it, moderate usage. Awesome phone.

I can get a full day out of my phone with moderate use (texting, calls, web browsing). I have my settings tweaked and have juice defender running which really helps. I'm on stock ROM and am not rooted, there is a lot you can do to improve the battery.
Well if you use your phone as much as I do then you would be surprised how quickly the Barry drains out haha
Sent from my TB yo.
Mine is usually 60-85% display, and I have it on dead minimum brightness unless I'm outside in the sun, in which case I set it to auto for a few minutes. Mind you, that's maybe five or ten minutes max of screen on time, two or three times a week. On the other hand, a twenty or thirty minute phone call can take ten percent off; I'm one of the people who sometimes remembers that it can make calls, too, so my experience is probably a bit off. I also have most everything set to sync every 2 hours, but I have imo.im running constantly.
If I'm using it pretty heavily, it may be down to 40-60% on the standard battery by lunch, which would be about three or four hours of screen on time. I'm in a 3G area, btw. I just carry a charger; which has the advantage of making other microUSB people happy when their phones die (and we can mock the iPeople with proprietary chargers). Yes, the battery sucks, but every phone has trade-offs.
If you won't have any way to charge the phone (car, wall, etc) during the day, then I don't think you will be happy with the phone. Between my wall charger (or USB cable), car charger, and two batteries (spare is the Seidio 1600 mAh), I'm satisfied.
As for the Droid Charge, the Touchwiz UI compared to Sense is a non-starter.
Is it bad? Yeah, seems like. Is it as bad as everyone is making it out to be? I dunno. I remember a lot of people complaining about the battery when I got the Incredible. With light use (about an hour of internet and email over 3G, one or two half hour calls, and a handful of texts), I'd charge it every other night (and have 30% or so when it went on the charger).
I picked up the Thunderbolt yesterday and charged it overnight. It came off the charger at 7:30 this morning, and I'm showing 54% as I'm typing this at 8:45pm. Since it's new, I was probably fiddling with it more than usual (but not a ton more, as the differences between the Thunderbolt and the Incredible aren't huge).
So with 4G on, yeah, it runs it's battery down faster than my old Incredible. But it seems like I can make it through a day without much difficulty.
EDIT: I figure I might as well mention my settings.
I have the brightness set to about 30%. I shut off any and all vibration. Screen timeout is 1 minute, volume is maxed for everything. Bluetooth and GPS are off (unless I need them). The weather widget updates every three hours. I don't use any other widgets that use data (just a volume profile and a power control widget). The phone can do background sync for my contacts, but my gmail, other mail, and Twitter (Seesmic) are all set to update manually.
I'm getting about 8 hours of moderate usage here as well. I've come to terms with the fact that using a device that is more powerful than my netbook will come with some battery trade-offs.
hey guys,
I'm going to follow this thread for a bit. My HD2 jumped into the Harbor yesterday and will probably be switching to Verizon for my next phone. I'd really like to get the TB, but am really concerned about battery life.
It sounds like people are getting a battery life similar to what I was getting running Gingerbread off the SD card on my HD2...which didn't quite cut it for me on days I was working in the field and not able to charge. But at least with the HD2 I could run WinMo on days like that and not have worry.
Keep the info coming!
thanks

Hello, im currently running with juice defender, but i was wondering if you could help me with what all settings i should tweak to help the battery?
After applying the MR1 OTA update I still wasn't happy with my battery or GPS performance, especially compared to my past phones (Incredible, X, original droid, blackberries, etc)...
After doing a wipe and reloading the apps I use by hand, I have seen battery life match the Inc in 3g only areas, and GPS lock on my location consistently in under 7 seconds.
In mixed 3g/4g areas (where I live), similar results. Battery life and GPS lock are very much improved. And the TB now makes it through the day for me.
In solid 4g areas, well, last night I was surfing the web, reading, looking to see if the GB update for the X had hit. I went to bed around 1 am with 80% battery, didn't hook to charger. This morning at 9 when I looked it had received some emails and auto updated some apps.. battery was at 55% so that is better.
It's still not as good as my droid x, but the TB is certainly more usable than when I first got it a month and a half or two months ago.
The t-bolt is better than my inc was, with bams GB rom I got 12 hours of heavy use with stock battery....my 2 cents...
I just tested my battery life. It was about 2 hours with Carl pagan cosmos on 2g. 4g really eats the battery. After I recharge, I'm going try it over 3g and see if that makes any huge differences.

Hey guys... I finally updated my E3D with that update. My sister and dad both updated theirs when they first got it.
I'm getting really good battery life. Minimal usage yesterday, but after 16+ hours I still had more than 60%... I even played a little N64oid.
However, my sister and my dad both get pretty bad - decent battery life. My dad doesn't use the phone nearly as much as me.
I wish I knew what settings are doing it. We all have the same settings but my idle time loses me like 2-3%/hr but for them it can be up to 7-10%/hr.
Anyone in a household with more than a couple E3D's getting this varied battery life?
Settings are virtually the same, and location isn't a big factor either.
A lot of things impact battery. If the settings are the same across all phones perhaps the drain is app related. If you really want to test you should factory reset all phones and then check. This way all truly have same settings and apps. I would bet at that point they all drain the same.
I did the OTA and my battery life shot up instantly.
Before the OTA I would have around 15 hours of light to moderate use of text, calls, and browsing before it hit 50 percent. Now, I would basically do the same things but I can go a full day before it hits 70 percent.
I bet you they use the phone more...calls..facebook....etc..friend of mine gets couple hours...and he plays games non stop.
I've not been able to drain this thing since I got it a week and a half ago. I have to say that I like to charge things over night. I've not been able to get the Photon below 40% before I go to bed each night.
I hear that you need to drain it full at least once but my habit of charging things overnight is getting in the way. Should I just let it go overnight one night?
I was under the impression that completely draining Lithium Ion batteries causes more harm than good.
"The smaller the depth of discharge, the longer the battery will last. If at all possible, avoid frequent full discharges and charge more often between uses. If full discharges cannot be avoided, try utilizing a larger battery. Partial discharge on Li-ion is fine; there is no memory and the battery does not need periodic full discharge cycles other than to calibrate the fuel gauge on a smart battery."

Also, i'm sitting at 46% after 15 hours of normal (for me) use. not to shabby. I should mention i'm running Juice Defender and build 4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_5 from the dev. forums and i'm connected to WiFi 90% of the time.
going to try tomorrow without Juice Defender and see how it does. After that i'm going to disable SPB Shell and see if that makes a difference.
Thank you sir. I don't want to root my phone so don't run Juice Defender but I do use the Data Saver in stock a lot. I usually just listen to a lot of music and look for new stuff on FB, check XDA forums blah blah blah, yada yada yada...
I'll not feel paranoid about charging my phone now lol.
Now with my tablet (Acer Iconia A500) I did root and load a bunch of different stuff. This is my first cell phone though and I didn't want to mess with something that I have to pay a monthly charge for. I know I could but it's my first cell phone lol.
How much are you guys using it? For me, I use about 30min talking, 1 hr heavy wifi use, 1 hr light wifi use (reading), 30 minutes playing with settings, and the rest of the day idle...that gets me to about 30%.
I actually thought that is kind of weak. Maybe my battery isn't as healthy as yours? I've only had it for 5 days. I charge it every night.
I use it for about 7 to 8 hours of music, FB updates/posting, checking XDA, about 10 minutes of calls and so far some Netflix watching just to show off the phone to my peeps. Oh and some picture taking.
I am the same way I hate to discharge it completely and its been very hard. I've went a day and a half without charging before it went under 10%. I will say that I am on Wifi 90% of the time as I have wifi at work and at home other than that its on performance mode so no true bells and whistles. I'm thoroughly impressed coming from the Evo.

Average day for me is about 30 to 45 minutes of phone calls, 80 to 100 texts, few conversations on google talk, 30 or so emails on three accounts and i have trillian running connected to two accounts.
Connected to WiFi most of the time, bluetooth is turned on (not connected most the time) and brightness set to Auto.
I really dont see how this phone is a monster when it comes to battery life, I've actually been getting the exact opposite. I just fully charged my phone and after running for 2hrs and 7mins its down 78%.... This phone has yet to last me for the whole day. What am i doing wrong? I dont have tons of widgets and the only app that im running that might pose a problem is Go Launcher

Is that your screen on time? If that is then I would say that is impressive already. When I had the epic on stock if I use it for 2ish hours screen on time. I would need a recharge. (Got a lot better after using custom rom. Around 4 hrs screen on time before recharge)

For the past couple of weeks I've been swapping batteries with an external charger one to two times during the course of a day (plus the overnight charge)... Looks like it's time to do some housekeeping...
Edit: used to have battery life like everyone else in this thread though! While at the climbing gym last night I noticed that the thing felt like it was about to catch fire against my thigh - it had burned through about 60 percent of a freshly charged battery in about two hours. I have a nagging suspicion that I neglected to uninstall something (or a few things), and now something non-existent is constantly being polled for as a service after I launch some app for the first time...
when i got my phone it did great on a full day charge, but now with it just sitting at the office its at 70% by 11am i take it off the charger 7-8am .. it started to "weaken" after i downloaded a ton of apps i leave wifi on and 4g off but it also depends on your signal strenght at home it will kill the phone halfway thru the day because i have one bar
Well, this question is for my lucky friends who have their new toys
Battery life is so good?
Post your test here!
Don't have screens for ya but battery life is more than adequate. My gf and I used it for about 5 hrs last night and it dropped to about 45%
(Games, xda, Netflix, and just tinkering around)
I'm curious what kind of battery life you folks are seeing, now that you all have had time to get some real world experience with the NT.
Thanks!
10 hours of continuous usage with 25% brightness.

Yea, the battery life and responsiveness of the device is definitely top notch.
I'm pissed as hell the bootloader is locked, but this device is an absolute steal for $250 bucks. Especially if you can manage to discount that price down.
Extremely responsive and awesome battery life considering I'm running max brightness and wifi 24/7.
I'm always surprised when I'm done using the Nook that it was still running. Granted, I ran it until it had only had around 20% left. But hey, if your sitting in one spot using your nook for more than ten hours, then you need to find something else to do. ^_^

Good book, nice day, under a tree? Done that many times just reading off my PDA.
Thanks for the feedback!
The battery life is definitely adequate.
I can usually go 2 day without charging thus far. I keep brightness at ~20% or so (I can't stand brighter, it actually bothers my eyes).
I also use multi-picture-live-wallpaper and it doesn't seem to drain my battery at all.
I do some pretty heavy use of it as I am reading on it and studying for med school for probably ~6 hours at a time
Battery life is great. BN's numbers seem dead on.
Lasted the flight from San Francisco to Sydney
I'm getting around 10 or so hours of use at 2/3 brightness. Battery life is amazing on this. I charged it last night. Took it off the charger at 10am didn't touch it till 10pm tonight. It was at 99 percent then. I think it turns off wifi when it's sleeping.

Yeah, it definitely turns wifi off on its own when sleeping
Yeah Ill echo the comments here, battery life is absolutely superb and the responsiveness of the unit for the price is fantastic. Sadly its a case of if only B&N....to fully realize what the tablet would be capable of.
I have to agree that battery life is amazing on this thing.
I've got wifi turned off full time (to avoid updates from B&N) and the battery just seems to last forever. Granted you always use less battery when you're not going online, but still, it seems to really really last.
Frankly it's making my phone quite jealous.
Umm, my nt's battery isn't as impressive as i hoped. I use 25% brightness, wifi on, no fancy live wallpaper. I noticed for every few minutes of sjurfing, battery would drop a percentage or so. For usage of about 3hr withoit wifi, i would use up about 40 %.
Anything i could do to tune it up a bit? I do noticed amazon appstore is always running, so is clock, contact, tb, and my yahoo mail app. Any help is appreciated.

That sounds about what I'm getting and I'm wondering whether it's defective or not (still within return window).
edit: Probably normal - ran into some threads on B&N's boards where other people are averaging 5-7 hours. If I idle / read, I get about 1% every 8-10minutes or so so B&N's time estimates were definitely not "video," "browsing" or "games." Wifi on, installing or rebooting a few times, it drops to 5-6 hours tops between 100% and close to 0%.
My phone gets -way- more time, even reading.
the battery on this is great one of the biggest things going for it. better than my phone for sure.
For you guys with bad battery life, you might want to try better battery stats. Then check for partial wakelocks. That's usually the culprit on my phone. It seems weird some of you are getting half the battery life of the rest of us. Personally I haven't even turned wifi off at all, and also haven't turned my brightness below half.
It's in the google market, it won't show up on the nook. I downloaded it on my phone then used the app share my applications then back up to sd. Upload to dropbox. Then download it with dropbox on your nook.

I looked at this (and other battery programs), but wasn't sure what they did. Now I sort of do. I'll check it out! Wifi on definitely uses up at least 20-25%ish extra battery, and I *have* been moving a ton of stuff to/from sd cards and uninstalling and rebooting a lot, but the above did seem very short. Too bad there isn't a battery hardware test
Failing those applications it may be worth doing a full reset; Especially since most other owners are reporting MUCH better results.
Before I start nuking things around, I used BetterBatteryStats, check for partial wakelocks, and the highest % is from ActivityManager-Launch, which occupies 0.3% or 5minutes or so since I fully charged it.
Also, i noticed "Wifi Locked" is extremely high, like 89%, whereas wifi On is only 26%. What does that mean?
I'm not fully versed in how Android handles power management. So what should i be looking out for? Thanks!
The first week I had my 920 I was lucky if the battery was at or above 40% by 12 noon. The 920 is my 2nd phone line and I am using it mostly to learn WP8, to surf the web some and listen to a lot of podcasts, usually 6+ hours of them a day. The past 4 days the battery in the 920 is showing insane runtimes. It is currently 11:30pm and it has been off the charger since 8:00am, over 15 hours with overs 8 hours of audio podcast listening. The battery is currently reading 61%. I originally got the impression that LTE was killing the battery, but that is no longer the case.
I have a Share Plan with AT&T with 2 phones, a Galaxy Nexus (GSM model from Play Store) and a Lumia 920. I use my Nexus as my main phone line, to access GMail and Google Reader (a lot of Google Reader feeds). The Nexus has been off the charger the same period of time and is showing 41%.
For me wifi destroys my battery for some reason I get 15 hours with wi-fi on or 28 with it off
Interesting, mine will usually run for 24-30 hours before hitting 15%, including regular usage. 4G gives it a whack but generally I find similar to other phones, if low coverage it chews the battery
Reading all the doom and gloom of 4G LTE on various mobile phones, after my 1st weeks experience, I was expecting similar results going forward. But, after 2 weeks of use, the battery falls in line with the results you mention. And, with that I am not complaining.
same situation here.
It looks like the phone needs some days to warm up and get long lasting.
Also I see that wp8 is heavly optimized for background task in order to not consume a lot of battery eg: my phone lasts more than 2 days with light usage.
I listen to podcast for many hours and it doesnt affect the battery that much, in fact I'm surprised by it because I know audio playing takes a load on the cpu.
Mine.. overnight without charge or using the phone it drained from 100% down to 35%. BS
Two words: Background tasks.
Make sure you don't have unnecessary background tasks running. I have less than 5 and my battery runs more than 2 days easily.
How do you kill or monitor background tasks?
I had really good battery time of 19 hours the first day of installing the new firmware, then I enabled bluetooth again and it drains like crazy. its hit or miss but people seem to think that whatsapp drains battery. I personally would like to disable LTE (its really slow in my area) and just keep bluetooth that seems to give me 12+ hrs of battery.

You can block background tasks for 3rd party apps in Settings->Applications tab->Background tasks. There is no way to monitor these tasks because WP OS doesn't offer any such capability.
Unfortunately there is no easy way to block 1st party apps and if they are misbehaving (like sync something over and over), there is nothing you can do about it.
Turn on Battery Saver can also effectively kill all background tasks. But that's draconian. I still would like my smartphone do something in the background for me.
Don't forget, the biggest battery drain factor could be your cell phone signal. If you keep the phone in a fringe area, the cell radio will drain your battery very quickly while try to maintain communications with cell towers. This is outside the OS and you can't do anything about it.
I had a weird battery drain the day after the last upgrade. No apps running in the background BAR the movie that i had paused.. I lost 80% without using the phone in a 6 hour period (post charging). After a reboot it seems ok. Perhaps i should pause another movie to see if it happens again....
I must say that I have mine 2 days and the battery drains too fast... I dont know what to do .. Maybe because its new ? Some one can help me maybe ?

My battery is pretty inconsistent. MOST of the time it's awesome, and will last like 20-25 hours without needing to charge, but that just makes it especially jarring when every now and then I go to check my phone at 4 in the afternoon and it's at critical, and I have no idea what causes it.
Plus when it does die I have to put it on the charger for like 2 hours before it will let me turn it on.
I found interesting point in the battery life today, if the screen is off, the battery drain is in the range of 3-4% which is good, however, if the screen goes on the battery drops like 15% in just 25 minutes. After thinking I tried to set the screen sensitivity to normal and it solved my problem. I kept the screen on for more than 45 minutes and the battery went down almost 6% only which is good. I still have to test more to give a concrete evidence.

I usually run a battery discharge app Saturday night. Then a full recharge with the phone off. That usually gives me dependable battery life of about 12 hours a day for the entire week. If I forget and not run the discharger I notice it midways into the week when I only get about 8 hours out of it.

after updating my phone to the 1314 update, my battery life got worse.
I went from 14 hours per day to only 8 hours.

note: I was not experiencing any connectivity issues on my phone.
let's see how many people here actually have NFC on and Auto-Brightness on... lol
I used the sleep app last night after charging to 100%, and then I fell asleep with it on.
I woke up to find the sounds still going, and when I checked my phone worried that I killed the charge, I found it still had 92% left. That's impressive.
