I know there's plenty of threads about this, but I wanted to contribute my two cents.
I have lasted, and am on my last percent:
17 hr 1 m
display 3 hr 57 m 56%
phone idle 13 hr 4 m 20%
cell standby 17 hr 1 m 10%
voice calls 9m 9%
wifi on 10 hr 5 m 8%
Really good for usage in my opinion. This was not standard usage either, tons of apps were downloaded over wifi and 3G, pandora on for about 1-2 hrs (still running), played a couple waves of dungeon defenders, doodle jump, fruit ninja. Was on webtop for 15-20 mins, played some flash videos in this time.
Used camera and Videocamera apps and effects/flash for 10-15 mins. around a hundred texts or so.
I'm fairly sure that on a day with fairly standard use (for me of course), I could last a full 24 hours.

Hello,
I was wondering, there are a few topics regarding battery life on the x10, about gutting apps out, now I done so, but what is odd is I have heavily, heavily used my phone, wifi never shuts off, even when the screen is off, listened to music for a few hours, a few phone calls, installed/uninstalled 15+ apps, sent texts, literary sat in bed and used my phone for over 6 hours straight, then an hour here, hour there, etc and my battery is at 50% after 17 hours since being plugged in.... Is this normal?

You are lucky, I do the same as you and my battery is nearly dead in about 12 hours.
How have you managed to get your phone to last that long???
Did you play any games at all?
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
No I haven't played any games.. ive launched one for two minutes, (paradise island).. So I passed out forgot to plug my phone in, out was around 40%, my battery is now at 28% no charging yet,
1 day 6 hours 22 mins so far.
I will have to post what I gutted on 2.1 when i have a moment
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
I think, that is normal, i usually surf the web on mobile internet(3g) around an hour or 2(except weekend which i usually browse for 12 hrs, not straight though), play games(about an hour). flow updates(30 minutes interval). I usually get 1 day and a half. but for very heavy intensive use of games, I usually got around less than 24 hrs.
though 3g is extensive than wifi, as long that your cpu & gpu doesnt get crunching too often then you'll get the best out of x10's battery life. for example reading an article on a website, about 2-4 tabs.
Ok, wanted to gage opinion on what you guys think my battery life is like?
I have recently upgraded to XXKG5 via ODIN - and so far not noticed much difference in battery life compared to before. I am not rooted.
At time of writing 16:45 my battery has 23% left and I took it off charge around 6.30 this morning and was using it from 7.30am. I played music for around 30 mins in morning and watched a video on tube on the way to work for approx 35 mins. At work I listened to music for maybe 90 mins and have been browsing the internet using phandroid app on and off all day.
Wifi is on, 3g is off, I have tasker switch off 3g when wifi connects. It has disconnected from wifi as Ive moved around a fair bit all day too.
Brightness is set to 25% and has been like that all day, except for 10 minutes when I was showing a colleague photos.
No phone calls.
Battery usage is Display - 39% Android os - 28% Cell Standby - 12% Maps - 7% Android System 3%
Update at 18:30 and battery has 4%. I was able to watch around 30 mins of video on the way home. But I would like to get more than 12 hours a day from it.
What do you think ? Is this decent? Should I be getting more? Can I get more?
There are hundred of battery related threads mate.
You don't have to post that much info, just check if you are getting around 5-5½ hours screen on time, if you are, you don't need to ask anything
Regards.
I'm not sure how I can tell from the graph.

Hi,
Guys I'm new to this forum...
I'm using sgs2 I9100
I'm having a bought here..
my device is not coming up for not more then 12hours..
2-2:30 hours of MUSIC.
2 Hours of Games.
No use of WiFi any internet thing for whole day..
when i post this it was abt 10 hours.
i'm using betterbatterystats
it shows like this
Awake (): 6 h 42 m 32 s (24152 s)
Ratio: 54.3%
Screen On (): 3 h 50 m 30 s (13830 s)
Ratio: 31.1%
i have attached the dump file here please do me a favour and say the problem why i'm not getting more than 12hours of stand by...
and sorry for the larger thread sorry guys!!!!!
Almost 4 hours screen on, almost 7 hours awake including 2 hours of gaming sounds pretty normal to me.
Indeed, if you're using the phone constantly, the battery will drain. Seems logical, no?
Did you buy the everlasting never runs out of battery model or the plain old model .???

With screen on: 3 h 50 m 30 s. So that means he was gaming half the time the screen was on. What was he doing the other half of the time the screen was on? Probably surfing the internet or facebooking? Who knows? He doesn't say. But if the screen was on, it was eating battery. Almost 4 hours of screen on time is pretty good, actually.
I also didn't see a remaining percentage at the time this data dump was taken, but maybe I missed it.

no!!!!! i didn't use any internet app because to see the stand by time i've planned to don't use the fb and any other internet APPS... but it says screen was on for 4 hours...
2hours i've been played games thats all..
either you use internet app or not, having almost 4 hours screen on sounds normal to me(taking in note that playing music and games does eat battery). i can continue for almost 5 hours screen on (gaming, online gaming, facebook, whatsapp blah blah blah) before i am almost drain out.
unless you are telling me that you just on your screen and do nothing with your phone.

I was just guessing. But the screen was recorded as being on for an additional 1hr 50 min, so you were clearly doing SOMETHING.
seeing your stats i noticed juice defender count is over 2000,juice defender never worked for me on the s2 try without, does juice def having issues starting the service?
my stats are similar to yours with 18hrs since charged, your usage and screen has been on for alot longer and i noticed your not rooted? theres really no point helping unless you use software by these mods since theres large improvements with battery life already
anyways this device seems so awsome, but 4hours of usage is sooo dumb... y couldnt they give it at least a 2200mah battery or something?
Playing games is very different from watching videos on your phone. It uses far more RAM and CPU power, both which contribute to high drain battery drain and not to mention the display is on and sound etc. Also, using Internet with 3g (data on) will use more power than internet using Wifi. I'm using a 2000mAh battery, and can typically get between 3 and 4 hours screen time making calls, texts, usings apps and browsing the internet over a 24 hour period, medium to heavy usage, easy. My oiriginal battery 1650mAh gave me almost 5 hours video playback streamed from my laptop (so wifi was on all this time aswel), and almost 24 hours standby. But i hardly did anything else with it.
I c, so my only question would be if I buy this device + a 2000mah battery, put on the newest android, how many hours video playback can I get with wifi, gps , sync and data connation off? I basically only want to watch videos .
That depends on the display brightness ur using but it should give u a few more hours I guess ;-)

Usually, on weekends, or holidays, I use my phone for Angry Birds, many other games, music, etc for a long period of time. Today I managed to get about 5 hours use until the battery got to 30%.
I'm not sure whether or not this is good or bad and so I'm wondering; how many hours do you get out of it, in relation to being a heavy user, medium user or light user?
Thanks
about 5/6 hours max
With normal usage 24-30 hrs. Wth heavy use, 8-10 hrs.

pretty much the same
always have 3g on and im quite sure i listen to music for 7 hours at least while im at my office...and by the end of the day i have like 20%
10 days and still going
With all data disabled most of the time, almost unused, but still connected to the GSM network, mine is now at more than 10 days (and I think it wasn't even fully charged at the start of this period). This is with stock ROM, Apex launcher, almost no other custom apps.
It's hard to have an effeicient answer since it depends on many factors : the way you use your phone, your ROM , Kernel and all setting stuffs etc ... . And even with same settings , two SGS II can have a totaly different battery drain. So, you can compare but it wont realy be so efficient .
Anyway , for me with a usual use : almost 2d and with heavy use about 16-24 h. I m on Wanamlite 10.6 with last Siyah V3.0 Kernel.
At weekends 5 hours max weekdaus prob 8-9 hours
Mod or Die
Plenty of hourly syncing and light use....
Stock rooted KL1 + LPR radio
I have tried 3 different ROMs and with the last ICS ROM i had 8-9 hours with heavy use of 3G/Bluetooth/sync ... and of course it's depends of what apps (games ) i use among the day ...
awesome how some users get 24 hours with a single battery charge.
When I use my S2 as a normal phone, about 20 hours.
But with heaving usage and gaming (which I do pretty much) probably between 6 or 8 hours also.

Woah :O Doesnt matter had "10days" :O
i guess screen on time is more important than overall battery time. I Used to get 4hr screen on time with a full day usage which is quite good for me and i think its average.

+1 Agreed here are some on my screen shots.
Usually prefer to watch youtube video's through browser So flash is must & it is a nice battery drainer too.Plus 4 hours of non-music playback !
Brightness - 20%
When i use gprs heavily it is very less!
Normal use may last a day!
Playing games also burns the battery pretty fast!
I have a Superatmos ROM installed in my Galaxy SII i9100G and I get around 30 to 35 hours of standby time with normal to low use. I do however browse the internet over WiFi some 4 hours a day.
I am quite happy with the performance of my phone.
So far its three months but its like Triggers Broom .

How much screen time can you get on the 920 from 100-0?

Looks like people are getting 4-5 hours of video watching off charger. I would expect you could eek out another hour or so if you were doing something less cpu intensive.
It depends on how u use it.
Brightness=Low
Wifi=Enabled
MobileData=Disabled
GPS=Disabled
I can get around 4.5 5 hours of web browsing facebook texting and other non-heavy stuff.
When I play games it gives me 2 2.5h of gaming. I play assassin's creed, gun bros, fruit ninja and angry birds sw.

I currently have 28% battery life left. Been off the charger for about 27 hours and since then I have done;
1.5hrs on Netflix
over 4 hours of web browsing
13 phone calls (not much talking maybe 45 minutes or so)
texting, some facebook (20minutes maybe), app updates
emails for about an hour total.
I have location services turned off, NFC turned off, and bluetooth turned off. Most of my web browsing is over wifi (80% roughly).
Not sure if that helps, take it what it is worth to you.

That's worrying. You've basically turned the phone into something I had back in 2006, and you only got 5 hours? Was NFC on?
I have everything turned on except Bluetooth and I can get 12 hours from my phone. On a slow day at work I'll use it lots and that includes watching at least 1 movie via Netflix through the work WiFi connection
I think that if I use my phone lightly, I could get a full 24 hours.
P.S. I don't play games on my phone.
