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 ;-)

Hey guys, I just wanted to know how long the Battery lasts in your Ace.
For example my Ace has to be charged almost every day.
When playing a lil bit or surfing the internet (Wifi/2G) my battery looses 10% or sometimes even more in just an hour.
On the other side, i've heard from other people, who's batterys last almost two days (and they're using their phones, not just standby).
So i'd like to compare my batterytime with you guys .
I'm on KPE (not Villainrom, not yet ^^) and most of the time i get arround 24 hours plus or minus some hours, depending on the daily use.
Charge my ace every day with 70 or so percent left. The phone will probably last a day or two.
Battery:
2.3.3 (KPE) - www,email, games(ex DragRacing, FruitNinja) ~11h
2.3.3 (KPE) - sms, talks ~ 55h (record)
Villainrom (wipe battery) - (2G,synchronization off )www,email, games ~6h
im gettin 3 days with wifi,facebook,games,surfing and took some pics use battery calibrater for these results
how s possible, 55 hours, you didnt use the phone correct?
and about what mr galaxyaceking said; im gettin 3 days with wifi,facebook,games,surfing and took some pics use battery calibrater for these results, how do you calibrate the battery??
there is a app for battery calibration,also im srry i meant 2 days

55h - only talk, zero www,email,etc
A colleague from the forum ..... his record 3d 18h record (image). It would be more, but need to connect phone via USB. He made a few calls and sms.
mine lasts 40-70 hours with 2G only,some wifi internet,games(fruit ninja,fishin2go), talking, and no synchronization. but record is 98 with minimal usage
Mine is sucks...
Sync always on for: gmail, g-reader, contacts, & calendar.
SMS about 5-10 times
Call duration for +/- 15 minutes.
Internet for bworsing without images >.<
Games: doodle frops, frozen bubble, fruit ninja, etc
Discharge @ 07:00 gonna find charger in hurry @ 12:00 something.
ACE battery life for me is sucks!
It almost feels like like there are differenty quality-types of batterys. Some people get arround 2 days while really using it, while some other people can't even get through the day...

Here is my fact:
For using market (downloading with EDGE) and browsing (without loading images) my discharge rate is @ 12% - 15% an hour. You can test by your self.
I dare you to use 3G
How come people said they phone last for 3 days?
It'll happen when you don't use your phone at all. I bet 3 days is 90% standby 10% usage.
When I use GPS( SYGIC ) my phone hardly lasts for about 4-5 hrs (I dont use GPS continuously). When I play games such as scooter hero, angry birds, doodle jump etc and wifi always connected it lasts for about 12 hrs. And one more thing I'm always on 2G.

i agree, i donno how they get the battery life with the kind of usage they have. i use half of it yet it struggles to last 9 hours.
i am thinking of getting those 1500amh battery that are in ebay, a few users have used it and got 2 days worth life with full usage.
@Bluffyone
is it possible to use an other Battery like 1500amh / 1700amh without problems for the hardware?

yeah thats to be considered but few works. and they are cheap so can be tried out if ur lucky then they might work better than the stock.
@C0ldie
these batteries are specifically made for samsung ace only and so it is usable
and using the SGS battery in SGA will not work, or does it?
i havent seen anyone doing that so i cant say

Its normal if your ace only last for 10-12 hours if your always on 3g(downloading,browsing,etc) and gaming. I have 3 samsung phones(ace,sgs,wave1) and their battery goes down very fast if I switch on the 3g/wifi and when im playing games on it.
Without 3g/wifi. Around 40 sms a day and few calls my Ace last for 2 days.

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.

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 .

my quad core s3 is a no-contract phone . uses pre-paid card. so there is no 3g/4g. i get around 4 hours screen on time with power saving mode on with juice defender on. i find that gaming time in this phone is awful. in the iphone 4, i get 5 hours 3d gaming time. now i dont even get 4 hours 2d gaming time! is this normal with the s3? but stll this is a fantastic phone. without gaming i get 6 hours screen on time. just would like to know if you get the same with gaming. iphone 5 seems to have a really good battery with 8h screen on time.
Make sure you disable wcdma in network settings.... your phone probably searching for a 3g signal and failing.

Get rid of juice defender and turn off power save mode.
Also 8 hours screen on time for ip5 is questionable, these are the same people that said 8 hours 3g use and 10 hours LTE. As everyone knows, LTE uses more power than 3g.
Their numbers are lies/exaggerated.
If you want the iPhone so badly then you know what you need to do.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I too have Power Saving Mode turned on, and manually adjust the brightness (it's always set to the lowest setting).
I have WiFi turned on the entire time that I'm home, and 3G when I'm out.
Auto Sync is on the entire time, because I want to be able to know when I get an incoming email.
That's pretty much it.
I am not able to come close to 4 hours of screen time, before my battery reaches 5-10%. Cell Standby accounts for the most battery usage.
Any pointers/tips?
P.S. Phone not rooted.
Do you have Viber? If yes there is a bug in the latest update that's keeping the proximity sensor on and draining the battery. 4 hours screen on time with battery save mode is really bad. There's probably some app draining the battery.
Ps. Ip5 battery life is a lie as usual, people who have it and actually use it say battery is actually quite bad. Also on the ios stats you don't have 'screen on' time report, but 'usage' time that is a lot more stuff than just screen on time. People who say the have 8 hours are probably just reading the usage time.

Yep; I do use Viber. I think you're right. Ever since I got the latest Viber update, the battery seems to die off sooner.
Should I uninstall and check?
How can I check what rogue app is eating into the battery?
Well. i hate the iphone 5! no i dont have viber. juice defender shows me battery improved by 1.8x. i have auto sync off and power save on. i have disabled mobile data. and i realised i am just expecting too much! i was surfing the stock browser on wifi for 45 min and my phone went from 39% to 34%. guess thats okay.
Viber just fixed the proximity sensor issue; hope this resolves the battery drain issue.
BTW, what is the normal hourly battery drain percentage?
You can install an app called 'betterbatterystats' (very counterintuitive name!) to see what exactly is eating your battery, it takes a while to figure out how it works but it is very usefull!
Google location services in maps and Google now (if you are on jelly bean) drain quite a bit of battery and basically anything running on the background. Obviously you just deactivate what you don't need!
What about the iphone4 and SGS3 screen size ...every mm more=more power

Three days ago, I flashed stock ICS (with wipe). I wanted to test the battery life.
Screen On time was a little under 4 hours.
I spent just a little over 2 hours on the phone.
Wifi was on/off intermittently.
Around 15 minutes of gaming.
The phone lasted 1 day and 20 hours.
That, in my opinion, is really, really good.

You can easily go for 2 days with this phone and normal usage if you turn off or use airplane mode at night. But I never do because the phone is so cool that I use it all the time! I charge at night, still I never get to 0% at the end of the day.
anyone else can post their experience with battery life?
I get easily 2 days without charging I don't see what your problem is

battery life on this babe is good enough for me!
I get around 21-26 hours of standby time and screen on time ranging from at least 5 hours to 6.5 hours. When I don't browse much and just use the Adobe Reader I b get around 7 Hours plus a few minutes.
I switch on power saving mode when the battery drops below 30% and my brightness is set on auto and I'm connected to a 2g network. No gaming. I generally browse the Web for an hours , listen to music for a few minutes and then read on the Adobe Reader.
Auto sync is switched on at all times.
Hi, guys, I am curious to know roughly how long can your battery last after unplugged from full charged?
Mine normal usage of whole day whatsapp, minor web browsing, and some music listening, Maximum can last 24hrs.
I would like to know whether this is normal for mediapad or there's something wrong with the battery?
Thanks in advance^^
Which model? Mine MP7 Lite also has low battery life. I charge it daily.
Sent from my MediaPad 7 Lite using xda app-developers app
For me, with Internet relatet apps & wifi, no games, no vids, active display time up to 4,5hs.
Otherwise its off most of the time instead of standby, which is mostly useless if wifi goes into standby as well, else it will draw mucho power.
For me, normal use lasts in round about 5 to 6 hours.
Navigation with full brightness, WLAN/MobileData on, sometimes switching to webbrowser or to shazam... 16% in 40min - or >4h.
(normally the pad is plugged, while driving
Just to give an idea.
Greets Gunnar
mine can last up to 6 hours of browsing with 25% brightness
Yeah, brightness is the key for saving battery!
If you look into the settings/accu you'll see, that round about 50% goes with the battry.

God sake, that was in stock rom, now with Latest CM 10.1 update, mine can last roughly 4-5 hrs MAX. How sad T_T
Really hope some one will develop a battery saving kernel to save our battery by running down so fast :crying:
Thinking of upgrading to the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge but worried about that the battery life won't be the same as my Note 4. I normally got around 4 hours on screen time with a charging time of 90 ish minutes, does the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge really beat that?
Share you screen on time screenshots with your S6 Edge. Does having the curved screen always on information stream drain your battery? What's your screen on time with bluetooth turned on most of the time,
Does 15 minutes of charge really provide you with 2 hours of watching HD video, does it have to be the default player or can it be any, like MX Player
I'm just gonna leave this here.

I always get 5hrs 40 mins watching Netflix on data so yeah it should. Most people get about 4hr 30 mins and up.
Well, i am one of those that never get the Screen time people show they get, i guess it's my brightness settings or that i leave everything on, bluetooth, nfc, wifi, gps etc..
I have the phone for 2 weeks and never went under 40% of battery , but at 40% i was with 8 hours on battery , 1h 28 min of screen on time. So i have the feeling that for me wont last over 3h of screen time. I might have some high drainage on stand by thought , wakelock or something. Today i charged my phone and went for a bike ride , so i barely used the phone, right now i have 82% of battery - 5h 45 min on battery with 19min screen on time.
Just sharing , not saying the phone's battery sucks. For me it's fine.
Depends on lots of factors. Some people have really bad battery life while others have awesome battery life. I've never had an issue with regards to battery life and I recently rooted and swapped to Edgar's debloated rom. I am using Kt kernel on stock clocks with undervolting on big and little cores of around 75. Unfortunately I got stuck with some bad binned chips or I would have under volted even more. Usage consists of Netflix, tapatalk, reddit and Facebook (web), and texting. I'm not a gamer but I do play clash of clans for about 15 minutes a few times during this cycle.
I can't attach my photos for some reason.
Sounds awesome. I would love to get around 5 hours of Screen on time with Bluetooth on and connected to my Gear S. I would mostly be using it to browse the web, play YouTube videos and download large files often. Do you have to give the battery time to adjust to your habit to get the maximum amount of usage.
The battery takes time to settle down. I think 4hrs sot should be possible for medium use. This is what I've always got with all the Samsung phones. I used to get near 5hrs sot with note 4. I've only had the phone a few days now and the battery was very poor to start with and used to get soooo hot during charging. It seems to be settling down...else is going back. ...I'm still trying to get used to the size lol
