There's an app for that, search the Play Store for "Battery"

He means the one that's usually built into the battery stats without using a 3rd party app. I looked and didn't see it there either. I wonder if they removed it or put it somewhere else

I know, I looked for it too, couldn't find it. I miss my AOKP battery stats, they're great!

Only problem with AOKP is you would have to use them because on HTC devices battery life sucked. At least my experiences.
Is three a link anyone can provide to a 3rd party app since it is not built in?

Just wondering how many have replaced their back cover due to it being worn out and no or limited radio connections.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Not me. So far so good. But I feel it may not last long since I swap batteries often.
My battery life is horrible cause of heavy use. I have seven batteries I swap out when drained.

Yea, I've tried all those apps, task killers, battery savers. Battery life is my least concern now since I have batteries.
My problem is connections. In high 4G areas I'm usually only getting 3g and I get a lot of no data connections.

Dayum. How do you charge all those?
Just a suggestion, see how your battery life fares if you keep your screen brightness under 25% (if you can).
I use two wall chargers. I average 3-4 batteries a day which works out well for me. I've tried the lowest setting I could possibly go with still seeing the screen, didn't seem to help much believe it or not.
Since I've gotten the backup batteries I just have it on auto brightness now.
Aside from the battery life, I'm more concerned now about the limited 4G I get and no data at all at times.
I would also think even though the battery cover is built well, I think it will wear out from all the removals.

I worry about same thing removing frequently. I found this supposedly oem but from Hong Kong. But if you look at images has contacts like the original back. Ordered and will have it in about another week or so.

Wow, 16 bucks for that, I can like 5 bucks. LOL
I guess it is original equipment though, so may actually be worth it to have one as a backup. Thanks for link

How did it go with Lingosbox.com? How many days did the item arrive and did you encounter any problem with them?
Today I got almost 2 hours of on screen time before I hit 3% after 9 hours. So I look in battery in settings and Android System is #1 at 57%! Then screen at 20%' followed by cell standby at 9%.
What is causing android system to take up 57% and cause barely 2 hour on screen time?
I had this issue too! after a reboot i havent had this issue agin
check what google services you have auto syncing. aka g+ calender and contacts those can make it really bad.
sounds like a rogue app of some sort.

An app that misbehaves: Sync's data or runs in the background when you are not using it, wakes device during sleep (wakelock) and performs background operations. This could be any app or game you download, usually it is more common in free apps with unknown developers....make sure to check reviews before downloading.
It seems like the restart fixed it. After restart android system is 4th place at only 6%.
Its doing it again today. 67% of battery is android system.
Any help?
I have better battery stats but it's some what hard to understand.

Mobile data has been killing the battery on my AT&T Galaxy S3. I can always tell because it gets warm even with the screen off. The only way I can stop the drain is to turn off mobile data which is not a long-term fix. I can't understand why some days I get amazing battery life, and some days I get a few hours only.
Use juice defender, I've used it for years, it turns off mobile data when the screen is off and re enables it on a schedule you set. It's the only long term fix I have found. Since calls and texts come through 2g this should fix your problem.

just out of curiosity, are any of you with battery problem using a live wallpaper, or most importantly a weather live wallpaper?

Hay guys,
So for the first couple of weeks my battery life was awesome on the s3 and was going an entire day easy with like 40% at night before bed...
However now it is seriously draining fast, I go to work at 8 get home at 5 and I have about 12 percent left with moderately light use...
First thing I thought was maybe an app but in the battery section didn't show anything odd, I got betterbatterystats to see more detailed but don't know what alot of the wake locks are... Here are the screen shots any input/advice is welcomed!!!

WAKELOCKS ask in the better battery stats thread .
jje
Have you changed the Rom? If so you need to download a battery calibrator from the store and reset the stats with it once fully charged.
You might have an app draining your battery, install free "Watchdog" app, and set it to monitor all processes, and it will sound an alarm if an app is misbehaving.
Also install cpuspy and reset the counter and then leave your phone for 30min or so, then check how much time your phone spends in deep sleep.

If you dont use 3g or 4g for downloads, switch your phone to gsm, A stronger signal means the phone does not have to work as hard and uses less power.
Also disable account syncing, stops your phone from waking up.

The phone is mint . I have it rooted with CleanROM 3.0
The battery is horrid.
I had a GS4 and that lasted me through the night and used it way more.
Its barely 4 and its about to die. Not to mention I had battery saver all day.

lol please install Gsam battery monitor, and betterbatterystats, and post screenshots so we can get more info. Also, you did wipe before installing this ROM, and have calibrated the battery recently, yes? also, its something in rom or apps, my One lasts all day. worst comes to worse just switch to a new ROM.

Please don't think wrong of me, but the title is so, ummmmm...... “ Misleading"

I have a 3000 Ma-h battery in both my Xperia Z1 and my Motorola Atrix HD so I don't have to worry about battery life too much, but I have noticed a difference with battery guru . You're right about tasker though. I love that app. I've also been using greenify since day one on both devices
