I have the brightness complete off, no window animations, 15 sec screen timeout and my display is using 93% of battery... Is this normal??
I'm having the same problems. I think most 3Ds have that problem

Depends on how you use the phone. If you made a few calls and some emails and thats all then yes. Its a percentage of what is currently draining the battery. 93% is display and the other 7% is from voice calls, phone idle and android system. If you do not use your phone much 90% and above will be display. How long is your battery life?

Anyone else notice that when you're on the phone and the battery reaches around 10% the phone switches off? Today it also happened at around 17%. Then when i switch it back on it switches off again

yes, it does so always. I check juice plotter battery graph and when it reaches 15% fall down to 0 and turns off. If I turn on, battery shows 15% again, sometimes turns off immediately, sometimes keep until the battery discharges completely!
It's a great dilemma, I think I will reflash soon
Its weird though, it only seems to happen whilst on the phone not on standby or wen using for texting or browsing

my battery drops about 10% an hour in my pocket....
when i look at battery usage it say my screen caused 70+% of my draining.
How can my screen drain so much when its only been on less than 1 min....
downloaded different roms stock 2.1, stock 2.2, 2.2 superclean.
All drain extremely fast and my battery manager keeps on saying its my screen..
Its on automatic settings!!!!
do i need to calibrate my battery? thanks in advance.
edit*
could this be a wakelock?
When you reset batt stats, it just adjusts it so the percentage is "correct", it won't affect the drain
im almost positive its wakelock....do you know how i could fix that?
*edit*
looked up spare parts and it is not wakelock......i dont understand why my screen is eating so much battery while its not even on!
10% an hour just sleeping!!!!!!! 25-35% while surfing the web, this is lame.
Today I disabled the ambient light sensor and just went back to adjusting brightness manually. 13 hours after unplugging from the wall and I'm at 50 percent.
I also have auto rotation turned off.

turned auto rotation off and rebooted my phone a total of 3 times after installing my rom.
now after 2.5hrs im at 95%!!! The screen does not drain my battery anymore when sleeping....but if im using my screen my battery still depletes extremely fast. like 5% every 30min. still it will last me more than enough for 18hrs with moderate usage. problem solved, but don't know how. rebooting did the trick...

I'd pay good money for battery life like that. Mine is running superclean 2.92 and it'll die with screen on within 3 hours every time.
What ROM are you running? Radio version? kernel?

just played angry bird for 30min, 5% drop.....with screen on auto... im at 81% at 4.5hours..... its to good right now! lol.
my phone was at 50% in sleep within 4 hours this morning!! amazing.
I'm getting horrible battery life too. Been searching for an answer. My display is using 90 percent of my
Battery in my pocket?

Check to see if your GPS is on, I'm using SC and voodoo kernel, was getting phenominal battery life until a couple days ago, phone wouldn't sleep. After banging my head against the wall for an hour or so it came to me that I had used google maps to see if it would lock my location and forgot to turn GPS off after. Shut GPS down and all is good now!
I just noticed that XDA app was draining my battery! I charged my phone this morning to 100% and 6 hours later my battery was down to 78%. I did NOT use the phone AT ALL (no text, no calls, no nothing) and the screen was off all the time. When I checked my battery usage, I saw that XDA app was using 25% of my battery?!
Anyone notice a similar thing?
Last night I was have force close issues with a game so i did a soft reset(took battery out) and to my surprise it powered back on to 3% battery life. I lost over 60% battery life doing a soft rest.So i quiclky threw it on the charger and left it there all night. I woke up this morning afrer 8 hours of charging to only 28% battery life. I unplugged it and plugged it back in verified it was charging and took a shower and all that when I was finished and ready for work I looked at phone still charging and unplugged it and still only 28% battery life. Anybody else see this problem?
Try an actual reboot? Try to let the battery die and see what happens? Lastly did you try a hard reset?
Yes, I suspect the battery is not really down. Today I had the phone on charger, when I went to unplug I hit the button to wake up the phone and it said only 5% remaining and to plug it into the charger. I then unplugged and went into the battery widget and it said 99%, WTF. Once before it was fully charged, took it off the charger an in a minute or so it was dead, put it back on the charger and it took forever for it to get to 27% but as soon as it hit 29% it went straight to 100% instantly. I suspect the software.
There are a lot of people reporting similar battery issues. You might download battery monitor widget and put battery temps in the notifications bar because you might be having high battery temps, which can fry a battery. Some people have had batteries replaced but I'm not sure it isn't a general software issue with charging. Hopefully the upcoming update will take care if this.
Is there a good solution or quick way to see the actual % of the battery?
I always use battery life for accurate temp and % since the hero days

Are you running a custom rom? Might be a software issue when reporting the battery life. Could try a hard reset to verify.
How are you guys getting the battery to show in 1% increments?

There's various battery widgets on the market. I use batter monitor widget. It has a notificationbar display you can use without turning on the recording function.

Cool, thanks. I've been using battstatt pro and battery indicator pro and they just mimic the MoPho's displaying usage in 10's. I'll try the battery monitor widget.
Battery monitor widget was only showing in %10 increments for me.

Morning, I'm a Sprint Product Ambassador supporting the Launch of the Photon4G,
The app I'm using to monitor my battery in 1%'s is Battery Circle in the market by Adrian Ulrich, it is a taskbar widget so can be viewed in any screen.
You can also use Minimalistic Text to output an exact Battery % as well to place on the home screen or lock screen.

You have to turn on the 1% function in the settings.
Hello, I recently rooted my phone and installed the omega rom. At first i was really impressed with the battery- it was like 1-2% in 8 hours. It was amazing, but now i have the same as stock(7-9%). I remember when i switched on the alarm clock then it started draining faster. I also installed a custom kernel(Siyah) but i dont think that is the problem. Can anyone help me with what the problem is and how can i get less battery drainage.
Thanks
Use betterbatterystats to finde culprit mate

I switched it on in STweaks, but still the battery drains(It show that the phone is constantly awake for a short period of time). And now there's a new problem with charging- the charging speed is fast until it reaches 50% and then it took 1 and a half hours to charge 20 % and now it's even slower.
Battery life is now like 10% in a day when not using it a lot.(couple calls and little bit of wifi)
I used some guy's power plan and disabled many apps and now i had 1% in 12h
