I suggest updating your original post with what people should be posting when they report their battery stats. Here are my thoughts:
Screenshot: Battery stats window with list of draining apps
Screenshot: Screen on time (SoT) (press the screen line item in battery stats window)
Screenshot: Battery graph (click on the graph)
Location services: High accuracy, Low (network) or Off
Brightness adaptive: On or Off
Brightness slider (closest approx): 33%, 66% or 99%
Mention in body of post: SOT in hours
Google+ Locations: On or Off
Google Now: On or Off
PS: I will meet mine on Thursday night. It is sitting at home right now
There is already an active battery life discussion thread linked below. No need for another.

I was talking to a friend of mine about the Atrix's battery meter being only 10% increments, and he told me the Rhodium originally had something similar, until the battery driver was replaced.
Just curious, is the same possible here?
Please post questions such as this in the general forum.

You could also point him to the discussion about this. This has been brought up and is not possible. Hardware limitation.

Bah, I was hoping that a hardware limitation wouldn't be the case.
I saw that the voltage was available through /sys, would it be possible to create a more accurate meter through that?
Use "Battery Left Widget" (Avail on the Market) and once trained it will give you a fairly accurate percentage of battery life left.
Circle Battery Widget also seems to give an accurate readout.
Seeing the same thing here...Seems like circle battery shows 1% increments in line with the 10% increments in the battery manager.

Hi!
from time to time i get the problem that my galaxy tab 10.1v has around 50% of battery left, and when i want to turn it on a couple of hours later the battery completely drained to 0% !!! i know there's a thread about that in this forum.
to get a hold on this problem, i'm looking for an app which tracks the battery level (e.g. in log-file, a graph...) and maybe even tracks battery usage of applications. the standard android battery usage display isn't detailed enough.
on my mobile, i've got the "current widget", which comes close to my demands. but unfortunately it doesn't seem to run on my honeycomb tablet.
does anyone know such an app which meets my demands? thanks

check out system panel (enable monitoring) and battery monitor widget.
Ok, for the first week I had my galaxy s2 my battery would be like 75% after low usage. Now after following the root guide. Then updating it to entropies DD I have terrible life. It seems like even on light usage I lose over 10% an hour. I can't say for sure when it happened. I want to say it wasn't immediatly after the root, but within a week of it.
Here's a pic of the battery life:
Well there would be a pic if I had enough post to post a pic. Anyways it shows my android OS using 71%
It shows that I have a 41% charge at 7:15pm after an hour charge from noon to 1pm that brought it upto 75%. The only thing I've done is text the wife half a dozen times.
Is there anything else I need to log or post to help troubleshoot this?
I love having my phone rooted, and I would hate to have to flash back to stock if I can't get my battery issue lined out.

Nothing to troubleshoot really. You probably have most of the known battery draining apps runing on your phone. (listed on another thread)
I would suggest you flash a ROM like Unnamed that removes all the bloatware and all these battery hogging apps. I would also get an app like Setcpu to set the cpu to conservative to save even more battery.
Good luck!
Entropy's DD already sets the CPU governor to conservative. Anyways, post a pic of your battery usage (by uploading it then linking it), and if your phone has blue bars all over awake, then you know you have a wakelock problem. Search for the known battery drainers thread and see if you have apps there, also remove all widgets and add them back one by one to see if any of those affect battery life.
Battery
It's just common sense, before rooting a phone like the i777 it's not much fun spending a
lot of time playing with it.
But after it's rooted and we have access to the CWM Recovery ready to do our bidding
we all get carried away by all the fun and interesting things we can do with the phone
if you get my drift! (and it's easy to get carried away with a phone like ours)
I just don't understand how so many people can say that "My battery is great" or
complaining that "My battery only lasts xx amount of hours" with a straight face
because just like any other battery operated electronic device, our phone's battery
consumption is a lot more variable than the weather!
Without conducting tests like starting with a fully charged battery keeping the screen
on until the phone goes dead or playing non-stop music until the battery dies there is
no real accurate way to test battery life unless it's done under labratory conditions.
Otherwise all we are doing when talking about battery life is a big guessing game!
Even little things like the ambient room temperature and the amount of moisture in the
air have an effect on battery life in all electronic devices even if they are powered off.
In other words, simply rooting a phone and doing nothing else has no effect on the life of the battery.
Hey I think you should try to wipe your battery stats in recovery after ah full charge cycle ..then let it discharge then fully charge it again. It worked for me after flashing cm7 on my evo.

Battery stats should not be wiped on these phones. There are threads that discuss why not to do that in this forum.

Entropy has repeated it in detail time and time again why there's no advantage to doing it and while it works fine on other phones, it doesn't with ours. If I can find a link of his, I'll post it later.
This is my battery stats for today's use. How is it? Thanks.

In order to get an accurate response, you'd need to post more screenshots from BBS - things like wakelocks, kernel wakelocks and app activity will help greatly to diagnose your phones battery consumption.
By the looks of the 1 screenshot that you have provided, I can only assume that you are a pretty heavy user...as the device did not have much deep sleep time (only 25%) and the battery per hour rate is 7.2% .

Yes I use my phone a lot during the day. Next time I will do a 100% to 1% and post more shots.
I updated my op with more information. How is it now?
Anyone.

Looks decent to me. Not bad at all for such heavy use
BBS Review
Here is my dump. How is my usage? Is 12.5 hrs till 4 percent good or bad? Note that the awake time is higher because I was listening to music with the screen off. Don't refer me to the BBS thread because my idle battery life is great. Thanks again!

You need to actually read the BBS thread..
If your idle battery life is "great" then it boils down to how you are using your phone. Are you letting it sleep or are you using it a lot?
Getting rid of GoChat will improve your battery life as it is creating a wakelock.
You will gain still more battery life by going into Settings->Sound and unchecking all the boxes towards the bottom. This is yet another known issue..
Looks like you are using it a lot, and getting the battery life associated with a heavy user.
Do you have a more specific question? I'm not sure what you are looking for here really. The main thing you need to do is research this stuff so that you are familiar with it.

I read the BBS thread and have already posted an idle log there. I only posted a log instead of a screenshot cuz I was lazy and didn't feel like taking 5 screenshots. The time that the wakelock was on was the amount of time I used GoChat, meaning the screen was on as long as I was using it. I just wanted a yay or nay of my battery life. I usually play videos from youtube for a solid hour, browse the web intensively, take a couple of photos, use 3g, and send some texts, if that helps in putting a figure on my battery usage from the screen on time vs the deep sleep time, so thanks for answering my question.
I have lately installed RR on my S3 and facing battery drain issue, It has gone from 100% to 1% after only 20 hours with only 2 hours SOT (30 min youtube and 1.5 hour surfing FB over wifi) below battery stats screen shots.
I've never used an i9300 but still use an i9305. Just by your description and the screenshots, my initial assumption is that your battery is dying or nearly dead. I doubt there's still a production line open for i9300/9305 batteries but even a new (mature) original Samsung battery might revive your device.
SOT is clearly pretty personally driven and not only depends on the used applications but also settings, network connections etc. and thus difficult to assess from anybody else but the user. However, you might want to consider to take a BetterBatteryStats (BBS) "idle dump" and to post that in the BBS thread.

I have already purchased a new battery and this stats using new battery.
