Certainly explains why our phones charge so quickly...

Wow, I've always noticed how fast this phone charges, but never put too much thought behind it. Thanks for sharing this!

[Req] LED Flash with Ring

I don't know if this is possible but thought it would be cool if it could be done.
Would it be possible to have the LEDs for the camera to flash when the phone rings? I know the phone would have to be face down but mine is actually quite a bit. Thanks in advance for anyone willing to look into this and see if its even possible.

that would be cool but such a battery hog
I don't think it would use very much battery with it being an LED. I could be wrong though.

That would be good for the disabled (deaf).
Yea. I didn't even think about that. I was mainly thinking for at night when my kids are sleeping and my phone is turned down real low.

Is my rezound just defective?

So I've been struggling with battery life on this rezound since I purchased it. It does get hot every now and then sometimes for no reason. I was waiting for aosp to come along to determine if it was just sense or the phone itself but since its not fully operational and makes my rezound hot as hell, I've stuck with sense roms for my day to day. The following screen shots are venom Rom desensed by me, including no weather, or facebook. The only thing syncing manually is gmail. That's it. No gaming here either. Downloaded a 7mb song, listened to mp3s with headphones and cruised the web a bunch.

That's about what I had using viperrez, although it seems your phone is discharging quickly when screen is off. I'd recommend under clocking when screen off to about 500mhz that works for me. Doesn't help with the screen on time though

1.) sense 4 is a MAJOR battery hog. id advise not to use ut unless your showing off
2.) i usually get 2hrs screen on, so id say NOT defective
3.) if you want like an extra 30-60 mins, try aosp. its fast and good on battery
hope this helps
Thanks for the replies guys I appreciate it. I did forget to mention something though... This is with the extended battery I know 2 hours would be about right on standard but I would think the extended should yield more no?

Most likely yes, isn't the extended battery 1.5x? Either way, battery consumption is hard to perfect. Like I said maybe underclock or find a battery saving build. Prop script to try I know system tuner pro has one built in.

I thought we shouldn't underlock yet because of the perflock bug? Or did that get fixed?

Battery life so far - moderate usage

My battery life so far. WiFi on while at apartment since I have spotty connection. Used GPS for about 20 min and listened to Pandora for 1.75hrs. Brightness auto at 40%. Using fast dormancy .apk enabled.
I feel like this is pretty good batt life for moderate usage. Maybe this will give some sort of base to someone who feels they have a bad battery.
Ask any questions and I'll do my best to answer them.
....I hope the pics come out better quality than my last post haha

Screen on time is there on one of the better battery stats pictures (last one and towards the end of the picture). It is at 2 hours 4 minutes at that percentage point.

Wait isn't fast dormancy suppose to be .apk disabled? Its enabled by default meaning your suppose to disable to actually disable fast dormancy.

Haha ya, you are correct! My mistake! I meant that it was installed and being used.
Ahhh, deep sleep at last.
This is all stock no mods whatsoever. Screen time is all web browsing. 40% brightness. Maybe an hour on 4g and the rest on WiFi. Bluetooth on but not connected. Don't know if this is normal. Wish it were better. If any of you guys are getting better let me know. I can still return for another.

That's normal, 6.5hrs of screen on time with wifi on and the phone being on for about 7.5hrs is good. If you are getting 3-5hrs throughout a day, I myself, consider that fine.
35 hrs and still @ 9%
I'm having no issues. I did a "conditioning" week and have been pleased so far. I'll admit its fairly light usage, but better than any other phone I've had.

Basically, as soon as I pulled it out of the box, I drain the battery until it turns itself off, then recharge from there. I do this cycle for at least a full week...drain to empty, charge to full.....I actually did it for about 10 days with this device. Essentially, I treat it like an old ni-cad battery for that first week.
There is absolutely NO science or expertise behind this. I know a lot of people say that lithium batteries don't require it and it doesn't affect it, but its something I do....and it definitely can't hurt.
Except only that it does hurt Li-on and Li-Po batteries
There is an article on battery University about this

My battery life has been awesome so far. I don't charge my phone at night so I like to go to sleep with it how it is. I consistently lose maybe 1% a night. Standby on my GS3 killed my battery.
Back to stock. Battery still amazing.

We just switched to Verizon from TMO, got two DNAs and two Nokia chargers and couldn't be happier they charge the phones really fast. Was actually surprised how fast they charge the phones, thought they were more of a overnight charger, I was wrong.

I have the Nokia one and it works like a dream. I never use the usb charger anymore.
I actually have both the LG charging pad from Verizon and a Nokia charging pad (Not the fatboy, but the pad alone) and from what I can tell the Nokia pad is far superior. The entire pad is a charger (It is smaller than the phone) so there is no guess work getting it to charge, it also doesn't make that awful *BEEEEEP* every time you try to place the phone on the pad, it only has a single notification light to indicate charging which i prefer, most importantly it seems to charge much faster than the LG charging pad. The LG pad overtime seems to have gotten more choosy about where i place the phone, and does not charge the phone nearly as quickly as it originally did. (Which was never as fast as the Nokia pad mind you.)
Though in regards to the 2% thing that has not ever happened to me. Mine charges almost as well as a regular charger (at least on the nokia pad), I would also guess your friends charger is bad, or your phone is doing something that is using more power than is being put back into it, or there is something wrong with the phone itself. I'd give it another go and see if it was just a fluke. Too bad you don't have another pad to test with to narrow down the issue you're having.
Good Luck though in any case!
Mine is the qzens.
Just had read that people had their DNA stop wirelessly changing when they had the Nokia one. Probably coincidence cause that's what Verizon sells. I got mine used from someone that sold their DNA

Just got the phone yesterday. The phone was already at 80%. So started using it, before it went to 5%, I had screen on time of 5.5 hours and total usage was 12 hours.. Screen brightness was between 30 to 100%. This was both on wifi and 4G.

Don't take it as personal criticism. We're very appreciative of you sharing with us your battery experience, and we hope you continue to do so over the next little while to see how it settles in. It's just that in my opinion this isn't a good start. Watching YouTube is actual less battery intensive than texting or other things where you're actually touching the screen. Keep posting your battery stats. It's very helpful.

I took no offense, I was able to get through a normal day and then some, so I was impressed. It has been better than my S4 battery life so far.
But I will definitely keep updating with more charging cycles. Thanks!

Do you have evidence of your claim that texting and touching the screen uses more battery then streaming video? Don't take it as personal criticism, but I think you made that up. I get 4+ hours of screen on time on my Nexus 4 browsing, texting and emailing. If I stream Netflix I get 2 hours before the phone dies.
