I have the UK International version and a big problem with the battery. I am on LF2. When I unplug the charger it takes about 30 secunds to go to 99% and from there rapidly down. I used juicedefender but this does not slow down the drain too much. Here are som ****s from Better Battry. Any help will be apprrciated!

If you read up on li-ion battery`s you will find it`s totally normal to go from 100% to 99% or less when you unplug.

Mine started to do that after about 4 charges, I guess it is normal.

Its same with me, but i ignore this as i get 40hr+ battery backup

It means the phone is 'bounce charging'. this means that when it is plugged in and reaches full charge it will stop and drain about 5% then start charging again. phones are designed to do this so you can leave it plugged in for as long as you like.
Here is a shot. I have the brightnest at around 75%.

Turn brightness down and don't have your screen on all the time and you'll be set.
I cannot lower the screen lower than 75%, because I cannot see it outdoors.

The screen is the biggest battery drain and it is on all phones, so the higher the brightness the quicker the battery will drain. Looking at your stats you had the screen on for around an 40-60 minutes which will produce the battery use you are seeing. The S3 will give you about 3.5 hrs of screen on time tops at 75% brightness.
I use the S3 outdoors on 30-40% brightness in sunlight and it is visible so I'm not sure what you are getting at when you say you can't see it outdoors.
Who knows why the sgs2 was programmed to read 100%. In any case it was a false reading, once you unplug the charger it is physically impossible to have 100% charge, in reality it will be 99.9%...... . In my opinion the fact that the battery stats get rounded down more accurately reflects the actual charge remaining, my old sgs2 used to hang on 100% for anything upto an hour which was just plain inaccurate.

3H26M later. I guess the bigger screen is taking much more battery juice. I was able to do a full day with S2.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Something is wrong if you can't go a day on one charge. You should easily be able to get 4-5 hours of screen on time with reasonable brightness.
Dropping to 99% once charger is disconnected is normal, was like that on the original SGS if I'm not mistaken.

I'm getting 2-3% drain per hour with moderate use and about 1% per hour when idle. I'll take it.

I've had no quarrels with the battery life on the phone. Then again it's regularly on the charger but the battery drain isn't bad at all. Listening to music with the screen off only drains 3-4% an hour.
I feel bad because it doesn't have an fm radio
Those ridiculous screen shots are not practical. Sure I can disable everything, freeze apps with tibu, then leave my phone alone for a few days, but this is a phone. On heavy days of use it easily outlasts the captivate.

Same here. Show me screen time usage comparisons not when its collecting dust.
Throw an I777 into airplane mode and you'll easily beat that.
I think if I turn my SGS2 off and lay it there for 200 hours, it probably still has 50% left when I first turn it back on. Let me capture that and compare.

Kinda beats the purpose of having a 4G phone... not to mention an annoyance having to turn it on every time I use a web based app.
I've got to the point where I only use it if I'm downloading a big app or something. The difference in web page loading is barely noticeable. I don't get 4g in most of the areas that I work so I leave it turned off most of the time anyway.

Yeah that 3-5 seconds it takes to turn it back on can be mindblowing. You would be amazed at how good battery improves on all roms when doing this. I even turn network off. I got 12+ hours out of the leak with stock battery.

You can't fix the battery drain. It's a kernel issue and no way around it. If anyone gets over 12 hours, I'd suspect they were being less than honest by saying that...

If that's directed at me, I did try it, for a couple of weeks. It's a fact, the kernel NEVER allows the CPU to enter sleep mode. Airplane mode, turning off LTE, etc will not help. I've done that plus turned off syncing, GPS, and more and had 30-40% battery drop while I was asleep in bed.
Well nusense had practically all of the ics leak taken out and he is uploading a rebase from the desire s official build so well see how much better the battery life is. If you think about it. Liquid has been working on his build for like 5 or 6 months, maybe longer and nusense may actually surpass it soon in stability. It's almost just as smooth now.

OK guys so I see people getting 7-9hrs screentime on 4g and I don't nearly get that. In just 32minutes of use I lost 7%. I'm on 3g no WiFi gps or BT. Here are some screenshots. I tried clean ROM and jellybeanz with Perseus and stock kernels. Any idea? I'd like as much screen time as possible.
Thanks so much

This may sound rediculous but I notice somedays my battery runs down a lot quicker than other days. Doesnt make sense but thats how it seems to me. Are you using the cable that came with the phone and plugging into a wall outlet?
3g eats a lot more battery from what I have seen...LTE and Wifi are the easiest on battery. That being said I still don't think 3g should be causing that much drain...I bet you have a rogue app since the app usage shows 50%

Download better battery stats and grant it super user rights. Let your phone sit for a couple hours (without touching it) and pay your read out from it here. It seems like you have an app going crazy, but just simply looking at your installed apps won't help.

You had the phone on for 9hrs and only dropped to 93%? Why r u complaining.? 40 minutes screen time at 93% after 9hrs off charger isn't bad at all. If I'm seeing that right.
thats correct, but while using it for a straight 60mins, it drops over 15%

I had been waiting anxiously for this phone, but it seems like not all that many others were as evidenced by the number of threads/conversations in this forum. I remember with the EVO LTE, that it was crazy in that forum before the device landed (and then got stuck in customs)
For those who say 'it's way too big'. I remember the same thing said about the original EVO. After playing with this one for a few hours, it seems normal.
OP can you run some movies/videos and post battery life? I watch alot of youtube and other *cough* stuff on my phone and need to know how the battery handles after a few hours
Can you guys please keep on the topic and JUST post Battery Stats of the Max and dont discuss any other things about an Evo?
