I'm very concern with my battery performance due to i've read there are people that the battery reach more than 1-2 days, it's true? because my battery only reach 15 hours with a regular operation.
Same mate, depends on what you call normal usage tho, and what you got on the phone. If i dont use it for anything but txts it will last 2 days, otherwise no chance. Use atk pro and kill all non essentials at screen off and cpu master set to powersave to give you bout 25% longer run time.

The rom Im using is rendeiro Cyanogen 6.1.3 V1, camera fix.
When I said that my operation with the phone is normal, because it is. Let see.
20 minutes on voice.
Email sync always on
Xda app many times at day
30 minutes in the web
Twitter sync each 30 minutes
2 or 3 facebook uses at day
And watch a few small videos

I do everything u do except for the facebook sync and twitter sync. Thats probably doing that to ur battery. My battery last probaby for two days but i drain it every night to really low then charge it over night. Try turning off facebook and twitter sync and see what happens for a day

I charge every night, but while in tours, I make sure, I keep my data traffic / wifi / GPS turned off while phone is on standby to extend the battery life.. That helps to push it on for around 2 days at max..
While in roaming, the Network signal strengths also eats a lot of battery, some one told me to use 2G network only, dont know how effective is that..
My phone goes for about one day but i am a heavy user. Youtube browsing using messneger on phone , texting with girlfriwnd . etc i dont mind though ots plugged in each time i go to bed. So when i wake up i have a fully charged phone again to repeat my daily usage

Obviously it all depends on what you've done while the screen was turned on but it'd be an interesting statistic.
Overall battery:
26hrs on stock rom 1.8.3
16hrs on gingerblur 3.1
Both with more than 3:30hrs of display on
About 24hrs on battery with 4hr15min with the display on. I think I have a screenshot on FB, lol.
I might be on to something here then..
Am using GladiAtrix 3 b0.2, before I installed it I did a battery stats reset through CWM
(advise from KennethPenn, dev of Gingerblur):
"""- Reset battery in CWM (under Advanced)
- Drain your battery to 0 percent and let it turn the phone off, then charge it back up to 100%."""
On my phone are more than 120 apps installed. Battery Manager is on "Maximum ".
The result is fairly amazing; the display time of almost 7 hrs is under heavy use; wlan & sync constantly on, Xscope & XDA app non-stop checking, market downloads, etc!! I have never had such good battery!
I advise everyone to do the above, it really helps.

That's right, only 2g unless I need 3g for data. I'm always around a wifi though.
No task manager, android 2.2 does all that automatically.
Not sure battery manager is so aggressive, I think it takes a bit longer than 15 minutes.

6hrs is my personal best, straight stock phone.
I've just put mine on charge, prob got about 40-50 hours, mostly standby. Seems a lot but I just unpacked my charger from going away for the weekend.
Prob about 4 hours talk time, prob 3 hours web. No GPS, no wifi.
Strange thing is, the battery thing said '5 hours since unplugged' which is definately not the case, is this a known issue? 5 hours since I rebooted it maybe.
when you reboot - the time since unplugged counter is reset.
Is there a way to do the battery stats reset without CWM?

a little off topic but howd you get that 1% battery mod and not the ugly circle, this looks kinda nice sitting at 33%, can one get that without gingerblur , stock plus root would do?
on topic, i get about 2 days on a medium usage on my battery , 1.5 days on heavy, i dont think i could use another phone after getting this much battery life, i just wonder what gingerbread would do to this phone
5 1/2 hours, with 3G turned on. Although the last 45 minutes of that it was just sitting at the launcher, I was waiting for the battery to die on it. I usually average 2-3 hours, but when I charge my phone I usually still have about 50% left.
Seeing as I rarely use data, I may have to try that 2G trick. Maybe I could charge it every other day instead of each night.
My best "Screen On" time is close to 4.5 hrs running Greyblur. For those just posting "time since unplugged"..screen on time is a much better indicator for battery life imo because it means actual use. The phone sitting idle in your pocket or on your table for 48 hrs is misleading to some people because then they wonder why they're only getting 12hrs with 5hrs of actual "useage" (screen on time).
For my style of use..battery saver modes and apps don't do me any favors because then I miss out on my IM's which I rely on for most of my communication. And unfortunately 2G isn't an option any more for most of us Canadian users..as 2G has been pretty much phased out.

With you on that, I keep asking people to post screen usage time (also in other threads); anything else is fairly misleading on how long the battery lasts.

At the moment screen time 2hrs 50mins battery stands at 55%

Just a week ago i brought a new Samsung galaxy Ace S5830...this is my first Android mobile..overall Speed,Internet is Awesome.But the problem is with battery..
In a day Max to Max for half hour i use Facebook..and lets say 1 hour for Surfing Net..and in a day 2-3 calls of upto 5 minute Max.But still my battery usage details are below
This are my battery usage detail:
Cell Standby - 49%
Phone Idle - 68%
Display - 36%
With this kind of battery usage even after charging Full battery still it somehow manages to work for only 3 hrs Max!!!
i tried to clear Ram Memory bt still no use after clearing ram the battery usage details reduces my some % but strange thing is even if i dont connect to internet still this value again increases from 30 to 70%..
i had also used "NoBars Battery Saver" app but still no change..
tried to Enter this Code *#*#4636#*#* But after i Enter this Code i choosed to Tun off Radio option..but this Stopped me from making calls and receving..so i had to again Turn on Cell Radio button.
So all i want to know is is there any app or any working code.. to Disable Cell radio and improve my battery life or Shall i go for new battery of Lion 1500 mAh
I think you should use juice defender... Use it in customized mode & disable the schedule part in it... Also keep the brightness to its lowest...
One more thing in location & security settings disable the first 2 options... This should solve your problem to quite an extent.. If not then you have go to samsung service centre...

Nothing personal man, just ITS MY OPINION. I used it only ONCE and dont like it by my self. SORRY!
I just want keep my phone clean (less apps, doing something, then you get less PROBLEMS) and install ONLY needed apps. You can MOSTLY configure your phone options from PHONE MENU it self. Just look them precisely and you be GOOD(of course not ALL options, but most of them, what you need).
CHEERS!
Juice Defender is of no use didn't stop battery draining just consumes space.
To save ur battery
*Lower ur display brightness (very imp)
*Upgrade to 2.3.3 + Rom
*Turn off wifi and b/t when not in use
* Turn off wifi locator
*Root It
*Stop backgorunds app (kill autoruns)
It will save ur battery as much as it can but sga battery is very poor as its 1350mAH :|

I think the apn widget is the manual version of juice defender.
Juice defender switches off the connectivity automatically when you lock the screen where as you hav to do manually in case of apn widget.

Firstly You don't have to say sorry for expressing your opinion.
I know that I can configure the settings manually instead of using juice defender. But it does it automatically & it takes only few kbs of memory. So I can afford that much of memory & save time.
But thats my opinion!!

Don't talk without knowing what you're saying. As desperate as he is, making a joke would lead to him taking it seriously.
Anyway, calibrate your battery by CWM or just let your phone charge to 100% full. When it SAYS 100%, it doesn't mean it. Leave it charging for about 1 more hour after it says 100%.
Dont be too serious man...
hmm.. that strange.. i'm using infinity v2 by nims11 but doesn't face such problem.

To properly calibrate battery you should do a long and accurate procedure. See this.

trying that method tonight.. wish it would help extend my battery power much further than 1 1/2 day..
The information is really screwed up. First my phone was just sitting there overnight at 90 % woke up and now it was about 50%. Phone was down to 17% plugged it in to charge it jumped to 60%. This is really infuriating and i cant even get a hour on moderate usage. Tried calibration didnt help or did something wrong i really dont know i give up

Battery percentage isn't that accurate. You need to see how long it actually lasts, mine goes down to 80 % in the first 1/2 hr of 3g use then stays there for a while, but in the end i can have it last for 17 hrs with pretty high usage. Try and see! And remember battery is fully charged when in settings/info/ status is displayed "charged"
Sent from my Galaxy Ace on Ice Cream Sunday Final
mine only get 8-10hrs normal usage. go down to 80% fast, slower down to 40%, and 20%, but much much slower down from 15% to 5%.
touchdown sync every 4 hrs, internet browsing, whatsapp, twitter.
on the battery use, its always cell standby, phone idle, and display take top three.
you can save the battery for about 24hrs when you use 2G only. with 3G, i don't think so. (I haven't tried this tweak http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436367 ).
Try charge to full 100% with the phone on...about - status say full
Power off, enter cwm recovery not while phone on enter cwm manager, use the home+power button method
Wipe battery stats, power on the phone (usually battery now 95-97%) then charge it to full 100% again...unplug n enjoy
I get 17 hour with this method with heavy usage...

doesn't work for my ACE.
when phone ON, I charge it until 100%. then I turn off the phone, and keep charge it until it say FULLY CHARGE. go to CWM, and wipe battery status.
my ACE's battery still run for 8-10hrs only.
or may be my battery need to be replaced with the new one...
You don't have to wipe battery stats every time... after deleting them you have to do some full charge/full discharge cycles. If you don't do this the calibration won't be useful.

When they die, they die. $10 off ebay got me an oem replacement. Heavy gaming I get a half day to full, depends on game. Regular usage gets almost 2 days worth. With the new one I try not to make it a habit to charge it while over 20% battery and regularly let it die out on its own and use fera's technique to keep it conditioned. Had the same battery for a year now.
