im going on an hour and 15 minutes and it's still uploading to the phone. from htc's website, it stats that this should only take 10 minutes. from previous experience, it took about 20 minutes. my phone was only charged to 38%. now im concerned that the battery is going to die. is this normal for 4.4.4 to take this long? lets say 3 or 4 hours pass and it's still uploading... what do i do?
somebody please help! im going backpacking tomorrow. i really need my phone. this is the only phone i have. we're leaving at 7am eastern time. is this normal for manual rom uploads to take this long? right now it says " Updating... 1 /8... Sending". its been doing this now for over 2 hours

I've only had one other android phone, and that was an Atrix. I got about 12 hours from each charge and 2 hours screen time--- compared to when I first got it when I got 20 hours and 3 hours screentime.
It seems like this galaxy note is going to be the same way so far -- although i REALLY want to be bale to get 30hrs and 5hrs screen time. Let's see if I can

Wow...Really? I had the Atrix as well and could get well over 30 hours of charge on it after about a year. The first few months I was seeing between 12 and 20 hours. For me it seemed the longer I had it the better the battery life was.
I'd frequently have it unplugged from 6 AM to 1 AM daily and have 60% left. That may be because all my usage came over a consolidated period of time and the rest of the time was light usage.
My first Android phone was the original Droid...I was able to coax around 24 hours out of it...but I was rooted with a custom ROM and a LV overclock kernel for it.
I'm hoping that I can get at least 14 hours with the Note on the same sort of routine...not so much this week because I don't want to put it down! LOL...my usage has gone from Light/Moderate to HEAVY...I fully expect to be able to hit this after a few more charge cycles (provided my usage goes back to normal...with the screen size I can see myself using this more than the Atrix, so we'll just have to see).
Over 20 hours of use with wifi, Bluetooth, LTE, auto-brightness, web browsing, video playing, texting, emailing and forum posting.
Yea, that's 5h 14m "screen on" time, too. 5.3 inch LTE device with those battery stats - yea, I'm happy. If your expectations are any higher you're delusional. 100% stock.

I want to select 14-16, but in this poll are you implying that at 16 hours I need to hit the charger or turn it off? This is rather subjective because I have a few friends that consider a phone "dead" the minute it hits 30%. Hell even the custom power saving profile is defaulted to kick in at 30%.
16 hours from my workday wake up time is only 11PM. I'd like to think if I decide to go out on the weekends I don't need to worry about charging up unless I've been using the phone like crazy throughout the day.
So we are at 10-12 hours so far in the poll. I hope we can get more input.
It's just $25 for TWO (semi-decent) spare batteries and a charger on Amazon... so no worries!
That said, the first few days with this phone have been rough! I've been using it so damn much that I have to plug it in at just 6 or 7pm when I get home from work. (DOH!) I'm sure my usage will go down a little after the honeymoon period wears off (maybe?). Luckily, though, my spare batteries are set to arrive today... so it's all good!
hello ,
I have few hours to decide whether my M8HD tablet is good or not.
I noticed it takes 1 hour for 25% battery charging.
can someone who has this tablet verify how long does it take it to fully charge? could it take 4 hours?
Thanks

I don't own that tablet but, as I have seen from mine since it was new, it can very well take 4 hours to fully charge.

Thanks for the answer ,
are you suggesting that it will start to take less time after some few charges?
No, probably it will take more time as the battery get older
So my first z2 had the self crack on the front screen.
I RMA'D it to Sony and I'm awaiting response, I couldn't be phoneless so I bought a second z2
z2...I'm pretty sure everything is setup the same, and I've followed the battery saving guide posted here.
However I'm getting much worse battery life. My old z2 was getting am easy 16 hour day with 4-5 screen time, now I'm lucky to get 10-12 hours with 3-4 screen time.
Anything I can do to try and figure this out?

Install BBS and see what's eating your battery, 3-4 hours SOT is abnormally low
I own the 42 mm version, and my watch has been going completely dead while showing anywhere between 30 to 35 percent battery left. I will look down and it will be a black screen and unresponsive until I put it on the charger. I can't really try and calibrate it because I can't go to 0%. Has anyone else seen this issue or have any suggestions?
Only time i've seen this is when it's a bad battery or it's dieing. Seems like it's hitting runaway voltage and just dumping the entire battery. My phone does this when it hits anywhere from 20-35% left. Going to take it to verizon to verify it's the battery but that is my assumption.

I have the same problem since 6.0 update and i did one factory (unpair) reset but it dit not help. So i was ready to return the warch (warrenty). but i had battery calibration under suspicion, so i did full charge and then resetting (unpair) it over and over again just to get quick down to 50% and then i made shutdown and bootup until it went compleatly dry (mine dyed at 20%) then it had a 2 hours break until i got home. Put it on charger and when it started, this time it show 2% !!! (not 20%)charged to 100% but this time it charged to 75% and stayed there a while and then went straight to 100% . I think the software is having a hard time calibrating this small battery, or it was the 6.0 update f****** up the battery calibration. I think mine is ok now. I hope!!!
Had the same issue with arround 10%. Returned the watch. Got a new one. Same issue. Waited a few days and did always drain it fully and charge it fully. Works ok now. I was wondering what is your battery capacity ?
My battery capacity is 282. It is better now but it is not 100% ok. Now i can go down to 7% before it dyes. I will give 1 week, if it is still the same i will return it.

I had exactly the same results. I think it's because Motorola actually has less than 300mA battery in these watches. Quite frustrating I would say.

What capacity does your new watch have? and you say after a few dayes it is OK does that mean you can go down to 1% now before it dyes.
I want to have the upper hand when returning it to warenty but i dont want to return it if i will only get the same problem with the new one. In the end i could be forced to live with it because this is the only SmartWatch i want to wear at corent time.
The problem is that it only gives 1/2 the time it should in power save mode, when 7%=0%

New watch has 282mA capacity. Now it turns off correctly at 1% let's say but that took only 2-3 full cirlce charges.

You were right. 3 time and now it went to 1%. I gues it is ok now!!
I had the same problem with the 42mm dying at 30%. I returned it and got the 46mm. Haven't had the problem so far with the new 46.

well from my first day of testing.. mine died @ 30 %.. since I bought it used from someone on SWAPPA, not sure if its under warranty still.. not sure if I can re-calibrate it or try to return it.. :-/
after a factory reset it did go down to 26% but still shut off early... so not sure what to do... I spoke to Motorola who said its out of warranty so would be $75 to replace / fix... that is about what I paid for it... so not sure that is the route i want to go... right now its at 72% and its 1;20pm.. so its doing good on battery right now.. just hard to estimate when it will die since it doesn't go to 0..
When did you see estimated battery time show in device manager?
Mines not too smart after 2 days.
I hope someone will answer that knows when.
Did you do full discharge and charge as well https://imgur.com/j8BkyRM
Mine was about 4 days after first set up. I never did anything like a full cycle just carried on as normal.
