Anyone have any experience with the battery life and the screen as far as scratches go?
I would love to know what the on screen battery life is like. My Xperia Z was good for abouot 4 hours of on screen time and around 15 hours.
Don't know what to said. Show you the visual.

I use GSAM Battery to show me the screen time used. Do you know how much screen time you have had on?

Yes bro., is not perfect but is much better than many flagship phones.
Stamina mode helping very good. The only thing I want to remove is bloatware, because sometimes phone asking me to update some things I don't wont to even see.
But again buttery is good. Better than my Galaxy s 4 (octa-core/hacked) better than my HTC one (stock) and better than my htc butterfly s (Stock) where buttery is 3200mah
Stay tuned.

Able to share more details based on this screen shot?
Out of the 10hrs + up time, how many hours of screen time is that? I thin that's the important stat. Also, what level of brightness are you on and are you on 3G all the time, did you turn on stamina mode?
Trying to compare with my S4 on 4.3 GE ROM.
I'm getting the ZU tonight :good:
So far for me, I am down to 24% after 10 hours. I won't make it through the day since I"m still up for 5 more hours. This was on moderate usage with Stamina Mode Enabled.
- one phone call
- three emails
- checked facebook twice, and instagram twice
- watched 20 minutes of youtube tho
- listened to music while working out for one hour
- 57 texts sent/received

Disable the bloat? (Settings - Applications - Find app and hit "disable")
BTW, does the ZU have the anti shatter protection on the screen like the Z? If so, is the Sony logo on the protection or on the device itself?

we all know that the battery life is crap on the amaze. It's no surprise. What I've been wondering since is why? why is it such a battery hog. In terms of CPU and ram, it's only slightly higher than the sensation and the sensation has a great battery life. I know the sensation and Amaze are completely different phones and hardware is completely different, but what makes the amaze have such a bad battery life? anyone ever able to figure this out?

Might be the kernel, extra horsepower, less optimizations than the sensation?

It's the display, it uses too much power and heats up too quickly, which uses more energy than it should, that's just imo though.
i used google maps tonight to get to my daughters swim meet. 2 hours and 29 minutes uptime and my battery literally went from 100% to 35%, no exaggeration. the only thing i was amazed by was how ****ty my battery life is. oh well, 2 more days and this phone goes in the drawer to collect dust

The display for sure since we're rockin' that qHD, now had it been a Super Amoled - it'll make a big difference in terms of power usage. I've set my display to the lowest (helps out battery drainage most of the time) and i've also downloaded JuiceDefender (works great).

I'm curious too. HTC says it's a 50% increase in battery life but we will be the judge of that.
HTC Sensation w/CMX JB 4.1.2
This may not be exactly what you're asking for but it's no worse than the Galaxy S3 I had. It also has a Power Saver option permanently in the notification bar that has no visible impact on performance.
I can't give an accurate figure yet but after 4 and a half hours of heavy use, constantly downloading apps, making calls, listening to music and using it to browse the Web at a relatively bright screen setting and it's still at 62%. With the power Saver on and my typical usage habits I have no doubt that it'll last the whole day without issue.

Battery life is immense compared to even a rooted custom ROMd HOX. This is my second day on power save mode and the second time I've hit 12+ hours of near constant FB + emailing with 33% left.

Having had the HTC one X+ for 3 days now....I really dont see much improvement. (very much comparable to my One X with Jelly Bean) As much as I thought it will (300mAh more), but I guess it's not much difference. Please note, I am not saying that the battery is bad, but even HTC one X with Jelly Bean already has good battery performance. I guess the extra 300mAh must have been cancelled out by the extra power in CPU. Anyway, maybe give it a few more days (more cycle) so that the battery is settled. Maybe then I can see better juice from it....but at this stage is unlikely.

Im thinkin on getting this phone, but I need it to last at least one day....
Im talking of course about "normal use" Im not talking about playing games, just playing around 1h30m .mkv, whatsapp, push mail, feeds, some social, music, etc....
I read also about other user he told that one x+ was unable to decode video via HW so, sometimes the image was not synchronized with the voice. Is that real?

For normal use should be really no problem. For HOX battery test on gmsarena gave 37 hours until empty with 1 hour talk, 1 hour video and 1 hour web browsing each day. So with HOX+ easy
I can watch MKV 1080p videos streaming from my NAS at home without any problems, just ridicoulos! btw: I use BSPlayer for that, don't know about stock player...

Your battery is okay. You probably turned your screen too bright or viewing your screen in bright environment. Leaving brightness in auto give slightly more than 2 hours screen time with 3G and push all on.
Facebook sync it's probably your major problem

Battery drain might be bcoz of Jelly bean update itself. I've had my S3 for three months, battery lasted me for 2 days until I updated to jellybean. Now 5 % goes every hour even without using it. I'm sure an update will come out to fix this
If you are still using stock mod, have you removed any bloatware? Take a look in Apps/Running Apps to see weather or not your battery drain is being caused by unwanted/unused applications.

Nothing in your first post stated that my screen shot was fake, even if you did, your statement would still be wrong.
Also if I was an idiot to do what you would,(In bold). The graph in my first screen shot wouldn't be decreasing from (start, finish). It would have shown spikes of increasing.
I think you just really need to read better, and stop assuming everyone lie about their battery screen shots.
There's no point for most others and I to do that,
I posted my screen shots with a simple intention to help OP to achive better battery life on his SGS3.
As I know the phone has the potential.
Thus the reason I stated "using latest wanam lite with persus kernal".
Then you chime in with all these non sense.
I know I have probably wasted 5 minutes of my time writing this as you probably will just ignore the facts.
But as you are a senior member on XDA so please,
The least contribution you can make is by not plaguing XDA with false information and negativity.

Well maybe when you post screen shots you can explain what you used it for instead of just posting a screen shot and going away.
More information is more helpful and will give people a more understanding.
I've seen people in here boasting and showing screen shots of 35 hours but giving no information of how, what battery they used or how they used their phone or what settings they used and when I asked got no reply.
Your screen shot didn't really show much to be honest other than you used a custom Rom.
Lastly I never said yours was fake but just wanted more information.

Its not 18 hours at 50% but its certainly possible to achieve good battery life playing games and using Internet etc.
See screen shots below.
@ OP
Media looks high to me on your screenshot. You may have the media server wake lock draining battery.
As a temporary solution force close the media server. It should be OK until you reboot. Then you will need to close it again.
Some people (myself included) have had success in overcoming this by formatting the external SD.

I get 5 hours at the most when playing games or using the internet on WiFi and sick of having to charge my phone and don't want to sit near a plug socket in case my s3 overheats or something.

Try a new rom, and/or recalibrate your battery. There is some apps on the market that can help with recalibration. If that doesnt work then maybe you do need a new battery or your rezound is defective.

Can you elaborate? When would you like me to charge it. It will be almost dead by morning if I don't charge it all night. I'm not around a charger much during the day and I keep autosync and lte off to reduce power consumption.
Sent from my Rezound using xda app-developers app
I'd just replace the battery or take advantage of getting an extended one if you don't run a case.
From what I've read before, the placement of the CPU in this phone directly heats up the battery and these batteries don't like heat, it shortens their life.

Normal use, at least over a year.
What I do to save battery is very simple. During the day when I am away from a charger I drop minimum CPU freq all the way down to 192mhz. I put max freq at 540mhz and I set scaling to battery saver. Try this and see if you get a difference. Of course it will lag just a little bit but its worth it to save battery. And its not to hard to just go turn CPU up for just a moment if you really need to and then turn it back down when done.

maybe if there was a fully functional jb release but too many broken things on the ROMs I've looked at.

So what s up with this? My battery seems to be getting worse all the time. I have screen brightness on the lowest setting. How can I fix the horrendous battery life. I've been running this rom a few weeks now. Is it time for a new battery?

Did you ever get a new battery? Did it improve your battery life? I'm thinking of getting a new battery and want to know what your screen on time is on the new battery?

Trick to tell if your battery is going bad:
Take it out. Lay it on a FLAT surface. Try to spin the battery. If it doesn't spin the battery is fine and it's a phone or ROM issue. If it spins easily and like a toy then your battery is bad. Over time the battery will bubble out due to being charged too much and result in an oblong shape that spins.

Not always true. I've seen some batteries that can go bad without starting to swell.Samsung batteries are really bad about swelling. HTC not so much. They just start losing their capacity levels. After 2 years it is good to get a new battery anyways for a cell phone.
I'm currently on the Rezound, and considering moving to the DNA.
Can you get 3-5 hours of screen on and still make 24 hours total on one charge?
Has it rebooted? Does Bluetooth give you issues? Etc.
I'm reluctant to upgrade without a solid improvement.
Please convince me before the 8x or some other crazy device does.

I go from waking up to going to bed with 4-5 hours of screen on time and it doesn't die on me.

Only when I do stuff to it that effects stability, under normal circumstances it doesn't reboot randomly.

Nope, Bluetooth works fine. I play music in my game room often and it works perfectly.

This was light to moderate use. Mostly on 4g/lte 2 hours screen time was pretty busy today I usually do more screen time. I'm on completely stock Rom not unlocked or rooted I imagine battery could be a lot better with custom Rom. I don't think it's really much of a hard choice to make.

Oh and I pretty much had music running in the background some of the time and auto sync on though I'm testing out battery guru.
