Is it just me or is AOSP MUCH better on battery vs Touchwiz. It seems that when I run a aosp rom with a certain kernel, it lasts me throughout my whole work day of browsing and using the phone and I still have battery left over.
If I have Touchwiz, I have to connect it to the charger before I'm done with my shift.
Maybe you have some touchwiz features turned on, adding to the drain.

Funny you posted this. I experience exactly the opposite! I have all the TW gimmicks turned off and I consistently get much better battery with TW.

I tried aosp. Much smoother, even when using ondemand like stock touchwiz. Unfortunately the battery compared to touchwiz with most gimmicks off was not great. Not significantly worse... But noticable.

Yeah, I like AOSP much more but battery life is typically worse. However, ocsn usually make it through whole day on either so it's not s huge deal.

So I'm running CM 10.2 now. I have noticed a slight drop in battery but I was able to make it through the day, even staying up later than normal, without a problem. I'll have to give it a few days but the difference is easily noticeable. I'm just not sure it's a problem. I'll report back in a few days.

Umm... Like I said, I can easily make it through a day on either TW or AOSP. With TW ROMs I typically have greater than 50% left at the end of the day, AOSP is closer to 35%. Now, until I need my phone to last more than 2 days, I'd rather not carry around a giant battery that more than doubles the thickness and weight of my phone. To each their own, I'd rather have a charger in my backpack than that thing in my pocket.

Hey genius, you're reading it wrong. It's not that the screen was on 42% of the time. It's that 42% of the battery that was used, was used by the screen. There quite a big difference.

I lose about 15 -20 overnight as well...I have a bunch of apps installed. If I set it to stock with no accounts (ie, no google facebook weather, no sync) no background data...I lose about 3 percent over night, but that's not very realistic, i need my apps and I'm a heavy google voice, google talk, and facebook user, so all thinks are syncing all the time plus a bunch of apps prolly running bogging down my cpus and the draining the battery. I see marginal difference between faux's kernel and the stock kernel...I still like faux's though.

I think we're a bit off-topic, but I just grabbed the Liquid...
Does it sport the 1% battery mod? If not, it isn't the best.
(See that? Easy as pie, back on topic.)
Pretty typical, maybe a hair hard due to heat today . I usually am at 50% with 3 hour screen on time. 4g all day. Very hot here in mid ga...100+ degrees
Phone calls, texts, if the screen is on its using data lol
I saw some 105 temps on phone. Also tethered for about 30 mins.
The spike is from a reboot after I updated to new family share plan
I use mine mostly as a hotspot for my wifi only tablet. Battery lasts 48 hours with 18 hours of FoxFi running. Pretty much no screen time except to turn on FoxFi or when my Nexus dies. Background Data disabled for 18 hours of the 48 hours (when I am using FoxFi). I do have the low battery Smart action enabled to.
Edit: I wish I used it more as a phone... I like it more then the Nexus but as my Nexus is a work phone I have to have it on me and don't want to actually carry around 2 phones. Razr stays in my backpack.

I feel for your issues!
Lots of people complaining about the i717. Have you gone into the battery usage and checked how much screen time your using. At first I thought this phone was defective till I realized I was using the screen for 7 hours a day! That would fry most batteries.
Upgraded to hotwires ICS compounded the problem for me. Especially as I used Titanium backup to restore apps and settings I should have perhaps just re-installed....
Better Battery Stats (2-3 dollars) will show you which apps are draining the battery while it should be in sleep mode - this can ID serious offending apps.
Cheers - hope that helps.

I think 7hrs is possible in certain conditions- mainly little data or wifi use. With heavy wifi I'm getting 5hr30min display on with the stock battery.

Hope!!
My battery has gotten a whole lot better after switching to the Team Perfection's ICS Objection ROM UCLF6 :victory:

most of that is sleep/standy time
trust me, you cant actually use your phone AND get a days worth of battery life,not gonna happen
and when i say "use your phone" that means the screen being on
nobody will show you a screen on time of 24hours,even with extended battery
I only get 2-3 hours of screen 'on' time before my battery dies...i also notice the severe drop on the battery usage graph from every time i turn the screen on to do nothing but browse for apps on the Play store. I just watch my percentage drop by 4-5% just from 10 min of use.
I'm running King Kang, one of the very best ROM's i've used so far and battery seems to be holding up...but i'm usually at 50% 4 hours after unplugging, but still testing. I've pretty much given up and try to limit myself from using my Note all the time Lol.
But check out the King Kang ROM. It comes baked with advanced Power Saver settings, SetCPU control, and other AOKP performance tweaks. You might see some improvement in your battery usage.
I get 4 hours screen on time and still get a full days use and then some. Comes off the charger at 10am and has 30% remaining around 1am more or less.
Im on wifi 80% of the day and I don't have many updates that can wake my phone. According to cpuspy my note spends 75% of the time in deep sleep. I wonder how many of the people reporting terrible battery life are not using the stock charger that comes with the phone and therefore not going into deep sleep?

I have anker 2700mah battery which is good..
I've tried extended life battery's 5200 which is good too..
For me having this mobile charger (9000mah) is the best. On eBay I paid about 30$$ its really good in my opinion.

I personally call bull****. Sync must be off, screen filter must be on, etc. No way you will see 7 hours screen on time...no matter what. Not on a stock battery and certainly not consistenty. Maybe airplane mode or some crap.

Did you try charging it up? When my phone's dead, I get terrible battery life too.

these threads are pointless
I know, 16 hours off charger is TERRIBLE.

Worst battery I have ever seen. Can't imagine getting any worse than this. I could easily pull 30 hours with 4-5 hours screen on with my gnex...... Hahahaha

Unless you are watching netflix streaming music playing GTA and anything else you could possibly do at the same time you are crazy I go all day using my phone for regular uses and I still have 40-50 left when i get home after 10 hours.....^ pointless^^
No problem
Battery has been great for me, much better than my previous phone although I'm not going to sit here and say that it couldn't be better.

Me too. I loved my gnex but I couldbt use it anymore becuase the battery. I had three batteries charged at all times to swap out. I absolutely love this DNA.

My phone has been on for 15 hours with screen time around 3 to 4 hours. I've still got 30% I don't understand why people still want complain.

My previous phone was a Galaxy Nexus and I'd ultimately be lucky if I was able to get 6 to 8 hours of use from the battery when fully charged. I can easily use the DNA all day long and be able to come home later in the evening and charge the phone. I realistically get about 12 to 14 hours of use out of the phone before the battery is depleted.

battery and use is so subjective, I have a hard time understand how people with so many different preferences, apps and workloads can even argue about battery life.
I use push email and a ton of other stuff, I simply will not get the battery life that somebody that just texts and makes a few calls gets
1 day 4 hours is horrible battery. Man...I should go back to my LTE Galaxy nexus.....
This thread is about as useless as my nipples
