Well, I don't know if this helps much, but I've rooted and disabled quite a few background apps. I currently have a little over a gig of RAM free. Anyway, I have 77% battery left, and I have a screen-on time of 41 minutes and it's been 8 hours, 36 minutes since I last charged it! For me, battery life has been a dream.

I ushed 5.75 hours screen time the other day. The battery life is phenominal on this device

Now when you are pushing these times. Please state lte or wifi. If it's wifi it's not impressive

I am unlimited data. Don't use wifi. That is pure 4g.

Yesterday 5:14 screen on time with 13% Battery left
That's with all Syncs are manual (other then work email once per hour) and only air call-accept and quick glance on, all other motion and gestures off

Thats all mobile man 3g/4g i just keep all the goodies off and keep screen auto or even lower. Sync off is importent to. I also use the power saving mode sometimes and it does not impede performance much. Not noticable

got 16 hours out of a charge last night, on screen time was about 3.5 hours

Android OS eating my battery

I've been using ICS en.EU leak (676.226.3) for 1 and a half month, and then some days ago, this started...
Yesterday I charged my phone full and didn't even touch it for more than 6 hours, just to show that how Android OS is eating my battery, it keeps my phone awake :/

First is this a Maxx?, that's actually not horrible. It comes to about 3% an hour at idle I typically hey Scott 1_2 with my Maxx. Try turning off wifi and the OS should be you're second biggest drain after the screen so if you don't touch the screen then it well become you're number 1.

No, it's not a Maxx.
It annoys me, that it awakes the phone in every 15 mins or so...
Is auto sync on?

I don't think you're wifi is turning off because that history shows wifi staying on. Also for a non Maxx that seems about right, but if that's worst then normal boot into recovery and clear your caches. I had drain issues once and a good clear fixed it right up plus I personally think your should clear them every now and then

I have the same problem.Android OS eating battery ! Deep sleep unused ..(Learnt from cpuspy).
1.U can flash 180.70.33 using RSD lite.

[Q] Do you think my SGS3's battery lasts normal?

Hi everyone. I've seen couple friends of mine saying that their S3 last like 2 days. I can't even see the night with mine. I used the screen only an hour but it's already %37. I guess there's something wrong. Can you check it out and tell me if it's normal?

What do you suggest me to do? I bought this from USA but now I'm in Turkey so I don't have warranty here. Do you think if I buy a new battery it's gonna fix?
Get yourself a Battery Mix from playstore, observe the graph and try to find out which application is using the cpu, I mean, see which one is constantly using the cpu even though you didn't use it.
(eg: on my phone google chrome and line are the main culprit)

That´s not normal, i am on Jelly Bean stock rom and rigth now i have 32% left with 1d and 9h43m, with normal use, phone calls, sms, wi-fi on.
I bought the Samsung Extra Battery Kit a while ago. At first I thought it was just placebo, but now I am pretty sure that the newer battery has a 1/3 better battery life than the one the S3 came with.
So I think not all batterys are created equal or degenerate after a few months too quickly.

Battery drain

I'm on viper4g my battery life on stock kernel has always been good on jellybean typically still have well over 50% by the end of my day just using my phone intermittent browsing Xda on my break at work or what have you. The other day this battery drain kicks in and I couldn't find a runaway app or anything that had change significantly bring it about. I heard about this app gsam battery monitor and have been using it only problem is the percentages are going way over 100% for phone signal I can't make out what the issue even is. From my understanding having a high percentage for screen is good since that means the power is drawing primarily from the display being on as oppose to data or radio having drain when you are not using them.

I had the same problem today. Also on viper4g, running custom kernel. Yesterday I ended the day with 1 day 4 hours on one charge. Today my phone was dead in 8 hours. Tried restarting it a couple times when I noticed the battery was dropping quick.

My house gets a weak signal but that hasn't ever been a huge factor...when it drains it does even when I'm working in town where there's good reception.

Strange wish I could pinpoint what happened, it appears I'm back on track now but I'm weary of phone signal % creeping back up near or over 50%
I had the same problem when i was running viper a couple of weeks ago and i just switched to a stock rom and knock on wood my battery lasts me the whole day.
Well vipers Rom isn't built to hold a charge for along time what they emphasized on was the ability to customize just about everything which seperates it from the rest.

23 days since reboot, this phone is amazing!

I'm amazed at the fact that its been 23 days since I bought the phone and I have yet to turn it off/reboot it since the day I first turned it on. I'm gonna go for a record here, hehe One of he main reasons I have yet to turn it off is because this phone lasts an honest 36 hours so if I forgot to plug it in at night I do not have to worry about a dead phone the next day.
This says a lot for how far android has come, I remember even a year ago, daily reboots were almost required to keep the phone from bogging down.
Just wanted to share, thats all..:good::good:

Right if you don't use the phone you can make it last a week as well.

He's been charging the phone, just not turning it off. He's praising the phone for its stability.

Yeah.. no.. I've had it alive for 8 days and after that my gps stopped working
Interesting. I turn mine off every night and charge it up. It has been at about 60-70 percent when I power down, although I've gotten as low as 35% a couple of times.
I just prefer having that fresh battery in the morning.
I definitely love the stability of this phone. The stock ROM is bar-none. I've yet to force-close a program and the phone has yet to hiccup a single bit.

Now that you mention it, I've not had any FC either.
I'm on a custom Rom and I don't think I have had a force close either lol.... Weird

I have the stock CM10 rom installed, and it usually does something like this that only lasts for a few days and goes back to normal. But this has lasted for almost a month now. As you can see in the pic, sometimes its says charging but doesn't "gain" energy, and when it does in drains extremely quickly. When it is asleep or turned off it still drains. I tried charging it with a different cord, then with my computer. Then I tried using a GS3 cord & adapter, it charged faster, but I couldn't tell how fast it drained since I wasn't using it.
Do I need to replace the battery? If I do, will it cost a lot, because if it does I'm just going to get a Note or DNA....
Try using a battery calibration app, people say to use it when you flash a new rom. Also, it might be an actual problem with the battery itself. Try getting a replacement battery if so. But then again, before you do that try going to stock and see if the problem is still present.

once it charges I'm going to see if that will help. and my son deleted my stock rom (long story), so I'm stuck on jb/ics.
Also its recommended after you calibrate to drain the battery to 0% and then recharge to 100% afterwards. And as far as the stock rom goes, you can restore using Odin and download mode
