looking massive! do u like it?
Holy brick
Definitely, massive and brick like . Adds mass and size, feels almost uncomfortable in the hand. But I guess that's the trade- off for infinite battery.

I've had a lot of extended batteries and zerolemon's, the phone can't calculate the percentage of these triple cell batteries that well. It will fluctuate up and down slightly. It's gotten better though. I remember back on the note 2 that the zerolemon would get down to 5% and then last for ages.

How is the loud speaker output? Is the volume or tone affected by the rerouting of the location of the holes to the bottom of the case? Is the case a little better build quality than previous Z.L. cases?

I just got mine today. Its much nicer than the one i had on my note 2. But more of a pain to get on/off. The sound is actually great. I swear it actually helped it. I was really worried about the sound the most, but it has to be at least as loud as before.
Also, it has a much more square shape, where as my note 2 kind of tapered in toward the rear, so handling the note seemed a little more natural. Overall they did great considering they had to work around the buttons and speaker on the back.

90% battery after 12.5hrs!
I keep all the radios on (4G, 3G, wifi, bluetooth, gps) and brightness set to auto.
...
I couldn't do a screen shot from the phone cuz no root yet
Manl, that's insane how efficient the new dual cores are!
Only if you dont use the phone. Hence your display percentage so low. Mine went about 12.5 hours on battery with the display on for 3h total
That is one thing that I don't understand about this phone. Sometimes, i'll pull it off the charger and not touch it for 12 hours and the battery will still be in the 90's like you see above. Other times, i'll pull it off the charger and not touch it and it will just slowly drain and be into the 60's or 70's after 12 hours (and it's still sleeping). Don't get it. Signal is always good here too.
I get about 3 hours of battery, and I don't even use it for calls really.

I know why my battery life sucks. I use it way too much... Lol... Underclocking to 685mhz works pretty well and the phone isn't all that laggy. It is definitely bearable.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
The only days I get battery life anywhere close to that are the days that I am super busy and just don't touch my phone, except to answer a call or text. Days where I have too much time, I'll constantly be on my phone playing games, researching things, youtubing stuff, listening to music, and on those days I'll get 9-12 hours, which is still good in my book. It'll easily go over a day with very light usage. I can leave it off the charger at 100% over night, and it'll be at 97% or so when I wake up, but as soon as I get on that XDA app for 20 minutes I'll be down to 75%, lol. It's ironic that the XDA app is such a major battery drain, and that is one of the apps that I use the most.

If you get '3 hours of battery and don't use it for calls' then you either have a defective phone or lying. I do vallet and play Video's all day work 5PM-4AM and I never have to charge my phone although close to dead by the time I leave. 3 hours? I don't think so.
Fact 1: 9 times out of 10, if you don't use your phone at all, the battery will barely drain.
Fact 2: If you were to actually pick up and use the phone, you wouldn't get nearly as long out of the battery.
That's something that baffles me about people and keeping track of battery usage. They leave their phone sitting there over night and all day without touching it, and then have kittens when the battery percentage barely goes down. Well.. newsflash, that will happen if you don't use the phone at all. I guarantee that if you were to use the phone for any length of time the battery would drain a lot faster than that. So that isn't an accurate indicator of the phone's battery life.

Hmm. You said you "always charge your battery from dead flat" before. That made it sound like you were doing it on purpose. But I digress.
Also, you should have no problems having the battery go the full day, (I can go the full day no problem - unless I'm constantly using the phone) unless you have something holding a wake lock. Have you installed BetterBatteryStats and monitored your wake locks to see if something is misbehaving?
Yes I have wakelock issues, But last time I tried to give starts thier was an issue with how I submitted it from the phone.
Anyway I sleep very little, and my phone is almost ALWAYS on the lack of a "proper job" means I don't have an 8 hour period of time where my phone isn't getting much use.
Do NOT worry its normal the triangle appeared because your battery has totally finished just Wait for 2 minutes and the triangle will disappear

Well, you should focus on solving those, and your battery life will improve.
Otherwise, my only other advice is to simply have more chargers readily available. I keep one at my office, a car charger each in my car and my girlfriend's car, and a couple at home.

That does look pretty bad. What is your details under display? (screen on time)
EDIT to add: actually, your screen looks like it might be on for a long time? (solid blue line under battery graph, starting under the "m" in 4h 56m 15s on battery text) If your screen on time is around 3.75 - 4 hours, this is normal.
To get a better gauge, post screenshots after you click both the battery graph above, (which will show signal, wifi, screen on, awake, and charging graphs as well) and the Screen entry. (to show screen on time)
Yea that screen shot is a week old, I will keep and eye on it.

chamonix's reply suggests you try a different modem, essentially. He's saying that in the dump you posted, RILJ held a 3.5 hour wake lock, which is unusually long. Could be that the modem you have flashed right now was struggling to find signal, so it was holding a wake lock.
Have you tried flashing a different modem yet?
Yea i've changed kernel/modems since then, Should I be selecting Other Partial Wakelocks Kernel wakelocks Alarms or Process?

Depends on what you want to look at.
But you're saying the screenshot above is a week old, and the BBS dump you linked to is clearly months old (from Feb 17), so maybe it's worth it to post more recent screen shots and dumps? Otherwise, can you honestly say you've not changed ANYTHING on your phone since either the screenshot or dumps were taken?
No one can tell you anything about how your phone is behaving today using information that is outdated.
The screenshot nothing has changed since then, I have changed things since the dump.
Well I want to kind out why my phone is awake when my it should be sleeping I supppose.
That screenshot their was a day when I woke up and used the device for an hour or so, and then I hadn't used the phone till about 12 hours later.
As you can see the phone kept waking up most of the day.
The info on Android OS for that screen shot was CPU Total 1h 6m, Kept Awake 4H 9m
Hey guys,
Some of you might've seen this on the N7000 threads,
This is to confirm that the same battery is sold to Canada on Ebay, and it works pretty well on the i717.

I do not have the test results yet from Battery Monitor Widget, because I don't really know how to do a full MAh test. Maybe someone can enlighten me on this.
Through everyday use however, it does seem to give me an extra 10-15% on the battery (which is around one hour for me).
For those who are interested, order it from this Ebayer:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/270942481442?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
Ps. The Charger is SLOW though, I usually use it on the other batteries overnight.

I have this one and t he 3080 one. Both work ok- not much more lasting than stock. I get 35% by end of the day remaining with moderate use, push email, 10 widgets, and 14 alarms.
I have the 3000mah version from these guys and these are just 2500mah batteries repackaged. I thought that I was getting more battery life too at first, that's mostly because you are trying to justify the purchase subconsciously, but they aren't any bigger and are actually lighter than the stock battery
They do seem like good quality batteries, just not any longer lasting than stock unfortunately.
If it were possible to get a longer lasting battery in this phone that was the same size as the 2500mah one you can be assured Samsung would be selling it as an accessory for $50, people would gladly pay for it... Samsung wouldn't miss out on making extra money on accessories...

If it truly is a larger battery then it should take at least 30 minutes longer (using the 1 amp wall charger) to charge from dead to full.... But I found that my charge times didn't change any appreciable amount, so the capacity isn't any different...
Here is some times taken when i first received the battery.

It doesn't take any longer to charge from empty than the stock battery does, so Its not any larger. My charge times were within 10 minutes of each other when comparing to stock.
Ebay batteries that are the exact same dimensions as stock but claim to deliver more capacity than the stock battery are pretty much always lying about capacity. Its all marketing. If the battery was heavier than stock I might say it could deliver more capacity, but they are usually lighter.
There is an app on the market called battery drain...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...fender&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd
Be careful using this, it will drain the battery VERY fast, potentially heating up the battery to beyond safe temparatures. DONT SELECT EVERY OPTION!!!
Here are the options you can select to have it do all at once.
-Turns on Permanent Vibration
-Enables Wifi Send Data
-Constantly Max Loads CPU
-Sets Screen Brightness to Maximum
-Enables GPS Location Services and Constantly asks Device to Refresh Position
-Turns on Camera Flash
-Turns on Bluetooth and Constantly Scans for New Devices
I would also grab battery monitor widget pro by 3C (the paid version is $4) or another battery app that has detailed logging.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ult#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNjYzcxLmJtdy5wcm8iXQ..
Consistency is the key, what I would do is power down the phone and let the battery completely charge (use the volume rockers to turn the screen occasionally to see the battery charge level, its fully charged when there is a 100% shown inside the green battery).
Set the battery logging app and the battery drain apps either on the lockscreen if you have something like widget locker or set them on the first homescreen that appears on an initial boot so you can access them quickly.
Then unplug the phone, note the current time (open the clock on your PC for seconds), power the phone up, wait a set amount of time (say 1 minute from when you initially turn the phone on) and launch the battery drain app, turn on maybe 4-5 of the options (dont use all of them, you dont want to damage the battery), say max screen brightness, camera flash, wifi, bluetooth, & GPS and wait til the battery dies and note the time when it dies (shouldnt take more than 1 hour).
You can test each battery this way (make sure you pick the same options in the battery drain app) and if you have an app doing battery logging, you can pull up the stats after the phone dies and you plug in the charger to reboot it.
Its also key that nothing changes (dont install any new apps or remove any apps) between testing. What most testers do is factory reset the phone, leave all the settings at stock and install only the apps they need for testing. This might be a bit extreme, the key tho is to have consistency.
Using both batteries and testing them in this fashion would give more information rather than anecdotal. However, I can understand that it is a time consuming process.

I left the phone on my desk (no wifi) at 50% and when I work up, it drained to 4%. That's a big no no.
Wondering if anyone is having the same issue.

try opening maps so it can get a lock on, then exiting. maps might be running in the background.
Maybe play with it for a couple more days, and if you keep having issues just exchange it for a new one.

Yeah, I had the same problem, go into maps settings and turn off location sharing and background location reporting and see if that works. :good:
I've been having awful battery drain too. I know the phone has pretty solid battery life - it's clear that something is draining my battery.
Here's a screenshot after about 2.5 hours off the charger. I was at around 67% and only had used 30 minutes of screen on time. The screen had used likr 4% battery...and apps were at 81%.

Most definitely a wake-lock issue. Something is staying awake. Go into gsam, and on the launch screen look at the app usage list on the bottom. Something will have a very large % of usage. Then you will have to deal with that app.
I assume your post was in reference to the OP - however, looking at the app usage list doesn't always tell what app is causing problems.
Look at the screen shot I posted right above your post. The top 3 %'s aren't apps, and it really gives no reference as to what could be causing my kernel to be so high ont he list.

If you choose app usage, then press the little arrow at the top right of the screen, it will list options. Choose the one that says "view time held awake". This should show you the offending app.

Oh, true. Thanks for that! I've never known about that feature. I'll have to check it tomorrow during the day and see what it says. I have a feeling it's just going to say "Android System" or "System *wakelock*" though.
Dude restrict the background data this problem will surely stop...but when using play store remove the restriction.as it won't work without background data. ..

Non of you are truly "heavy" users if a 2,000 mAh battery running a quad core processor, and a 5" screen last you 12 hours with 40% left. You're an extremely light user. Heavy.... lmfao
I could drain that battery in 6-8 hour period, and that's not even streaming videos, etc

All this on sync:
As for apps, nothing too heavy, just the occasional look at Browser, Ingress, and (alarm) Clock.
Isn't that battery life rather awful? i thought atleast 6-7 hrs of on screen time was reasonable?
I usually get 9-10 hours screen time average when I don't game to much. Gaming a lot brings it down to 5-6 hours of screen time.

Coming from a Asus TF300 with dock which gives me 16 plus hours I am finding the N10 battery life pretty bad.
This on top of the light bleed, lack of memory card slot and the not so cheap price is making me thinking in returning it.
It is a nice Tablet but I am not sure if worth the asking price,
I game, surf, all kinds of stuff and get at least 10hrs.
But, I find the screen really really bright, even on the lowest setting in bright light in the house. Mine is always on the lowest setting and probably why my battery life is good.

This is so important for battery life. I just understand why people set brightness so high... Screen brightness will kill battery life..That's pretty much standard on any portable device.

I agree, even my ipod I keep on the lowest setting.
I have finally converted my daughters into a very low setting. Your eyes will adjust and you will see after and realize even at 25% it is very bright.
People automatically want the wow factor and turn up the brightness most of the way. I can't have it a tick and it burns my eyes.
I am not sure how people have them up so high, this screen is really bright.
A bright screen is useful in the sun though
My brightness was around half-way; I just put it at lowest, so I guess I'll try seeing how it goes

This. I just turned off auto and set it to lowest setting. We shall see how this affects battery life.

This or install a third auto brightness and let it work its magic. Set the settings lower so that it never goes high, but does adjust to outside brightness
Screen time only mattets when you want to use it continuously and dont have access to charger like on a plane journey. If you are getting by 2 days without charge with moderate screen time then its good enough as you will get access to a charger in that time

Wow, so many of you getting such good battery life. Mine hardly manages 6 hours with WiFi and screen at 25 p.c. most of the time. Is this a faulty device?
Good battery life especially no wake locks seen
