I am stock rooted
This battery drain is so pathetic, please help me out on this one guys.
I charged to 100%, then played games for like 50 minutes, Plants Vs zombies for around 32 minutes and Kingdom rush for the remaining.
Charge became 84% , not sure if this one is to be expected.
But the main issue was the drain during screen off, i went to sleep when the charge was 84% and the device was screen off for almost 8 hours,
I woke up and checked, now its 66% ???? . really around 18% drain during a 8 hour screen off window
This is so lame, i checked the battery usage, nothing seems out of the ordinary, yes WIFI was On the whole time, is that the reason..
Does the notifications cause battery drain?, i had received some mails and t-mobile my account crap had sent some notification and LED was glowing all along.
i moved from note 1 only because of the stupid drain during screen off, its annoying , i know we can switch off WIFI, data, restart the device and use some app to reduce the drain, but i thought the battery will be good out of the box with Note 3, this feels the same like my note, no difference, something is messed up.
Any help is appreciated sorry for my bad English.

that idle drain seems very excessive. I lose like maybe 1% overnight. have you managed your accounts and only sync the necessary things? that could be a big drain.

Yes thats very excessive , thats why i am losing it, i did check for syncing, apparently nothing was running overnight.
Could be because i have only one point in the network signal? , not sure, i did check on the Cell standby it said "Time withou signal 0%"
i never had 1% drain overnight , would be nice if i can find out a way to make it work for me as well.

Call me strange, but if i am going to be sleeping, I plug it in. When I wake up even with just a nap the phone is fully charged.

i do too.. but i want to check the battery drain during sleep, often when traveling, i wont even use the phone but it would have drained , that's why i am checking how bad the drain is and the ways to fix it.

not sure you need these setting enable or not, but try uncheck all in Location Services under Setting.

Maybe you should start with basics and see what have you changed, since this drain begin?
For example I was trouble shooting WiFi calling and followed one of suggestions to shut down WiFi power save in service menu. It didn't work (updating router FW did the trick) and I forgot about it, but then I realized my phone was discharging 20% overnight (yeah, I charge when come home from work, by the time I go sleep phone is fully charged) and this was way too much. To make long story short, once I put WiFi save mode back on, I get 3% discharge overnight as it should be. The problem with such high discharge rate was that the phone barely lasted a day of light use and if I forgot to charge it night before it would be dead before morning. It also kills battery to have it fully charged daily, battery will lasts much longer if the charge is light (80% to 100% for example.)

Yup, i think it was this Wifi power save option in the service menu, i had switched this off and forgotten about it. thanks for reminding me .
i will check tonight as well.
Bad thing about this setting is, its very hard to pinpoint if you had forgotten about changing this setting, it wont show up in any of the battery usage app.

Go into wifi, hit menu and go into advanced settings. Uncheck wifi always scanning.

Those 2 games kill battery like a mutha, even if you kill the screen. I always use androids built in task killer by holding home button for a few seconds and killing battery hogging apps like those. If i do decide to end up installing those again and playing them i can expect shorter battery life for sure. Ever since i stopped gaming on my phone less and just game on my 360,ps3 and now wii u(kids got 1 for xmas,mario 3d world is addicting lol) ive seen huge boost in battery life and light to normal battery consumption on common sense settings for our phones.

Yeah idk I barely use my phone and still only get about 12 hours out of my phone. I think 4.3 just doesn't like our battery hopefully 4.4 is better.

Greatly improved battery life (CDMA)

Last night I restored my phone using the factory image. For some reason I anticipate an OTA soon so I wanted to be ready. Anyhow, before I suffered from the battery drain bug. I forgot to charge my phone last night, and didn't realize it until I got in my car and put it on the car charger and it said 89%. My first thought was that my battery drained over 10% in the hour I was getting ready and not using it! Then I went into battery settings and found out I never charged it.. then I found some pleasant... well, I'll just show you.

As you can see, I lost less than 5% battery during the 6+ hours my phone was unplugged. I had the phone in the living room charging while watching a movie. Then I unplugged and used it for about 20 minutes in the bedroom which accounts for the first rapid drop in battery. But after I set it down, the phone went into a coma. And I can't see exactly, but it looks like it was only 2 or 3% which is great!
Not sure what changed, I still have the same apps installed, even Facebook. I did, however, NOT disable VZ backup assistant like I normally do. Maybe that is what causes the OS to go bonkers? Thoughts?

I got about 20 hours out of mine yesterday (extended battery) with moderate usage (texting, ebay, facebook, web) This is after unlocking the bootloader and rooting. Unlocking the bootloader resets the phone to factory state. I've read a few other posts around the web where battery life is greatly improved after a factory reset. Android OS is still the main things devouring my battery, but I almost don't care with the performance I'm getting. I should also mention that I wiped battery stats from CWM and then calibrated the battery on first charge.
I'm no dev, so I don't know why a reset would help. Then again, maybe it was wiping battery stats and calibrating that helped me. Just my $.02
How did you calibrate the battery?
There's a free tool in the market that will calibrate for you. Have to be rooted though. Just search for calibrate.

Surprised this isn't getting more acknowledgement. Any one else experience the same after a reset?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
Guess maybe I'm one of the lucky few...I've always had this type of battery life. The phone just sips power while the screen is off.
While it is on...well that's different. I keep the brightness high and get about 2-2.5 hours of screen time before it powers off.
The interesting thing here is that it seems that you have the Android OS constantly waking up the phone but yet it still barely uses battery.
Do you have location services turned on or off?
Turned on. I noticed that too but the overall awake time is low. Usually it would be over half of the entire time on battery, sometimes 100%.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
I used 50% in about 3 hours on my extended battery.
fml.
Great battery life, but you didnt really use your phone much.
Your "Screen on" is only about 15% of those 6 hours. Which ends up being about an hour.
Still, none the less, great battery life/power consumption.

I think you missed the point. I said this was done while I was sleeping. Many people are experiencing extreme battery drain even when they aren't using the phone, as was I. After restoring from the factory image, my issue seems to be gone.

I unplugged my phone at 11:30 pm with 98%, woke up at 7:30 am today and it dropped to 76%. So a 20% drop in 8 hrs with the phone just sitting there with wi-fi on and no apps running. It'd be very interesting to see if a factory restore would help.
How's the battery life now that you're using it?
Im thinking of unlocking and rooting mine tonight. havent had a moment to read the walkthrough just yet.
i noticed this too last night/today. i went to sleep after installing bugless beast 4.0.3 cdma, left it off the charger, and today i saw the chart was pretty much a flat line. i don't recall the exact times, but i'll try to time it out. about 8 hours
i wonder if all the initial extreme battery drain reports are due to the 'wowanewphone' effect, where you are molesting your phone 24/7, as opposed to the typical day-to-day use you'll eventually fall back into

Wifi draining a lot of battery

I m using domination HD ROM. But have used kernelpanic as well I found this problem in both the ROMs wifi takes a lot of battery juice and when I am using the phone wifi keeps getting disconnected and connected. Is it a known issue?

I'd day it is normal. It isn't actually sucking up much power. Mine is at 65% and my battery is still almost full.
Is that so ? How many hours after it's plugged off the charger? I fully charge my cell and if I keep wifi on in the night. in the morning it comes to around 80 percent in 7 hours
Sent from my nitro hd using tapatak
7 hours, was still at 90%. Had it on all night by accident. Wifi becomes negligible when I begin to use other apps. Any game outweights my wifi really quickly. Anyway to see exactly how much drain an app has aside from the "about phone" "battery use"?
Now, please, screenshot of 8 hours with wifi off. Then we'll talk
I use systempanel app for it. it doesn't show wifi drawing a lot of battery juice though. But still do you notice wifi keeps getting disconnected?

Quiet impressive. My guess is you have not much installed there, no push mail, no weather, nothing like this?
The signal strength seems to help this as well.
My phone left during night with wifi on, cell signal at 2-3 bars (although I can see the cell tower from my window 3 block away), plugged into computer in sleep mode (which for some reason doesn't charge the phone), in the morning after 6 hours leaves about 80-85%. But I do have 3 push mail boxes, weather, news and gps enabled.
btw have you noticed that the temperature is always generally above 35 degree C. even when the outside temperature is below 15 and the device is untouched for hours.. in the screenshot.. temperature shown is 32 while the outside temperature was about 15. and it was taken in the morning after untouching the device for 7 hrs.
Have you seem something like this in your battery consumption
Sent from my unlocked rooted Nitro HD using tapatalk
Anyone got any idea what is draining my battery sooooo fast? I've had strong signal all day, for the most part minimal brightness..turned wifi of when not in use, didn't even play any games today... I left the house at 8:30 and it was dead at 6:45, before I even got home. Also, only made one short official today.

The built in LG apps are known to eat up the battery. If you are rooted, you can use NoBloat to disable these applications.
Here is a website that has a list of the applications that are safe to disable: http://androidadvices.com/optimize-lg-nitro-hd-phone-performance-removing-bloatware/
I'm not gonna lie, I'm scared to root it. This is my first Android phone.and if I screw it up I won't have a phone for quite some time.

I understand your fear, but if you read the directions closely and go slowly the likelihood of bricking the phone is small. Rooting by itself isn't too dangerous - the dangerous part is loading CWM and ROMs, and the risk will be greatly reduced when (if) we get CyanogenMod for our phones...
After CM9 came over to our Phone still Wifi takes a huge percentage of battery drain and usage. I have seen my frens Galaxy nexus and his wifi was on for 10 hrs still it was taking 3% of battery . in our case it would take more than 20% if its on for 10 hrs
I am on CM10 now and WiFi is still the biggest battery drainer by far..
on other phones typically the screen was using the most battery. WiFi is typically battery efficient.
My phone went from 95% - 68% with WiFi on (but not using it) AND while on airplane mode.
There is some issue with wifi drivers

[Q] Pathetic Battery Life, even with 3800mah extended battery. WTF?!?

This is irritating me immensely...my Galaxy Nexus has yet to last me a full day on a charge. I bought a Hyperion 3800mah battery and I believe it really did extend my battery life. On Sunday, I was home all day and my phone was connected to wifi. I used it quite a bit and the thing had 80% when I went to bed.
Today and yesterday, going to school, my phone is just about dead when I get home, at 2:30. I did use my phone, but not heavy at all. Spent the most of the day in my pocket. I had nothing on both days. No bluetooth, GPS, I had sync off when I went to school today, then I turned it on around 1 o clock or so. I used full screen brightness when I was outside for a few minutes, otherwise it was on low. The thing is warm to the touch like its been running frantically. I'm lead to believe that its something to do with the LTE radio. But what??
Took some screen shots of my battery page, had 4% left.

Please please please help me. I've read people getting 2 days on a charge with a 3800mah battery...I'm drooling for that ability.
Thanks!
It looks like your spending lots of time in area's with bad reception. I'm using the sedio 3800mah and I have no problem going several days on one charge. Only time it drops faster is when I have crappy reception and the radio's are pulling more juice. On heavy days I have wireless tether running all day, and a couple hours of games and still have 40+ percent at the end of the day.
there is also some crap app installed that keep ur phone awake..
ur phone should be awake only when the screen is on (or so)..
your high % of cell standby should give it away.
look at your signal the red is all the times with no signal meaning that whole time the phone is searching for signal. plus 49 %of screen on time that looks to be half of 7:49 so almost 4 hours of scren time is good just need to fix your signal problem plus draw something kills your battery as well

is not like that..49 % is the power consumption of the screen in relation to the other things that drained the battery..with easy word, you cant know the screen on time if he doesn't say u
True...well he needs to do a factory reset and see if it helps

Factory reset doesn't help bad signal...lol.
Turn off LTE, bad signal will drain you fast but bad signal on LTE will drain you twice as fast.
Looks like you have a rogue app. See how much your phone is awake when the screen is off? That combined with bad signal=dead phone.
I see what you guys mean about awake mode. Yea my phone feels like a warm coal all day. I uninstalled "Words Free" because I've heard bad thing about battery, I stopped using the beautiful widgets weather app, stopped sync with soundcloud, and I got an airplane mode widget for the bad reception area. We'll see how long I can stretch my battery tomorrow.
I read up on how Light Flow light might drain the battery. The LED light has remained stuck on a lot, so I uninstalled it. I'll post a battery stat tomorrow night. Fingers crossed.
I can vouch for bad reception draining the battery.. that should clear up your problem.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I had the same problem but get this app called "2X Battery", my batter lasts the whole day now! Get the PRO version, its actually worth it and it works wonders!
I have the extended battery also
yep bad reception... once time i left my phone one in my bag while on an airplane... not in airplane mode or anything... battery went dead in about 2 hours due to no signal
Pretty sure the bigger problem is the phone waking up while the screen is off. You should run your phone for another day and look at the list of apps that are draining your battery.
A few good things to look for? Google + or other programs constantly checking for messages your location, or updates, e-mail being pushed to your phone automatically, Wifi on while in sleep, and widgets.
My battery is **** also on GSM version my galaxy s2 would have 2-3% drain per hour most time less Nexus seems to drain 2-3% in 15mins its terrible wish i never changed.

Battery life + great battery monitoring application

I just got my Glide a few days ago. From the specs of the phone and reviews online I was expecting the battery to last very long, but that hasn't been my experience.
My battery was going down about 10% every hour which means I would barely make it through a work day without charging it again.
I found a great app called Battery Mix that tracks battery usage and estimates how long the battery is going to last. It shows a number called P/H (percent per hour) which tells you how many percent per hour the battery is going down (or up if you're charging). You can find the app here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.smapho.battery_mix
When I first installed the app I was getting about 12.5 P/H which means the phone will only last 8 hours. I then uninstalled a few apps that use battery, but that didn't help much. Somebody said their battery improved when they formatted their SD card, so I just removed the SD card from mine. Now my battery consumption is down to about 8 P/H. The best I've seen is 7 P/H. This is better but still would only get me 12 hours and I'm not running all the apps I would like to be running.
I have JuiceDefender running now on the balanced setting. I'm running the Osimood ROM with Android 2.3.5. I've removed all background network polling apps like Facebook. Android OS is using 56% of the battery followed by display at 15%, so there isn't anything else that's eating up my battery.
How is the battery life on your Glide? Could you please install this app so we can compare numbers?
Woah, 56% battery life for the Android OS?
On daily usage it barely gets above 20%. The screen takes most battery life.

Thanks for the info.
Mine has been sitting on standby most of the day so that's probably why display is so much lower on mine than yours.
The high percentage of Android OS doesn't really worry me. It doesn't mean it's using a lot of battery; it just means it's using most of whatever is being used which could be a small amount.
Mine is doing much better now. P/H is down to 4.3 which means it could last 23 hours.
I really think the problem was the SD card. I'll pick up a different one after work today and see if it works better. I need a bigger one anyway.
I also found a thread that talks about corrupt image or video files on your phone causing bad battery life. That could definitely be what I'm experiencing. Should be fun figuring out which image is causing the problem.
what about downclocikng your cpu to 800? it will help i belive.
OK just installed it. I will let you know how mine is doing in a few days. I am fully Rogers stock.
I replaced the SD card and it seems to be doing better now. There may have been images on that card contributing to the problem.
I actually had GPS, wi-fi and bluetooth on the whole time. I've turned them all off now.
I've also underclocked it to 800. Thanks, taiber2000.
It looks like for the last hour it only dropped 3 percentage points.
If you are rooted and have ClockworkMod installed, you can sometimes get better battery life by resetting your battery stats. I think there are even some apps for rooted phones that will do it, but I don't have any experience with them. I can say, however, that resetting my battery stats using CWM increased my battery life significantly.
See here for one guide on how to do it: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/bugless/111009-get-better-battery-life-reset-battery-stats.html
sjbotha your welcome.
i belive i will do the same when i'll get my phone as well. altugh i will install the OC rooted kernel for better overall performance i will still downclock via software, not need the extra sterngh for my uses and i better have longer use time then CPU power.
I get 4.9 but the other day I was getting 12. All I did was Reboot my phone and I haven't started many apps. I think when they start they stay in memory.

Mine depends on usage:
-about whole day wifi-on with 3 hours games and calls; if battery is 100% at 6am, it will be 20-30% at 10pm
-whole day HSPA+ on, 2 hours phone calls + SMS/MMS, emails etc; if battery is 100 at 6am, it will be 50-60% at 11pm or before I sleep...
in terms of P/H:
-i get 3-5 P/H when wi-fi, Auto-Sync is on.
-i get 2-4 P/H on HSPA + Auto-Sync on.
-about 1-2 P/H or sometimes a straight line on Battery Stats when Idle, no data connection and/or auto-sync is on.
in other words, the glide can handle my needs in a whole day without completely draining it's battery.

how is my battery life?

I'd say your battery life is pretty poor.
My battery is a little bit better. I don't have any screen shots right now, but it's usually around 3 - 3.5 hours on screen. Around 7-8 hours battery usage total.

Try downloading Gsam or watchdog from the playstore. Watchdog will tell you if there's a rogue app draining your battery and Gsam will tell you what's taking up the most power.
let your phone do a 3-4 recharge discharge cycles..then it would stabilize.

With 2 hours screen on time over an 8 hour period and your steady curve on that graph, I would say you have some app, or some service eating CPU cycles constantly (these are called wake locks)...
Do this:
Download an app called CPU spy
Charge your device all the way
Pull it off charger
Open CPU spy
Then just hit the back button to close it.
Let your device sit for about a half hour. Don't touch it as much as possible. Leave the screen off.
Open CPU spy... post a picture of what your CPU stats say according to that app. Majority of your times should be in deep sleep mode.
Also, your battery shouldn't drain anymore than 1 to 1.5% each hour at idle. Unless you live in an area where there is poor reception (scanning for signal chews it up as well).
EDIT** ALSO...is your screen brightness on auto or is it manually adjusted a little brighter? If it on auto, then your battery life according to those graphs is absolutely awful. I have mine set pretty bright and I still see about 3 hours of screen on time

			
				

			
				

			
				
Give it a few hours of "normal" use and then come back here with a Betterbatterystats screen shot with Partial Wakelocks/Since Unplugged and Processes/Since Unplugged. That way we can see what is eating your battery. With only 4% gone, we can't see anything (too small of a window). Make sure you don't plug it in and use normally.
I have seen your other posts and I am wondering what it is that you really want out of your battery. If you think that you can get 3-4 days out of a charge, that is not going to happen. 1.5-2 days is a reasonable expectation and I think that you can get that, but you have to look at your usage habits. No kernel is going to fix that. No ROM is either.
If you are polling notifications (Facebook, G+. Twitter) or Google Locations (Maps, some app that requires location) or believe it or not using the XDA/Tapatalk app a bunch, then those will drain your battery quite fast. I use the Tapatalk app quite a bit and that and Google Now are my #1/2 battery drainers. Could I get rid of Google Now? Sure. It is more of a novelty at this point. I still get 1 -2 days of charge on my phone wihtout worrying about where a plug is.
Like I said, come back at the end of the day or tomorrow morning and post the Partial Wakelocks/Since Unplugged and Processes/Since Unplugged and we'll see what is draining your battery.
Another thing to note is that it seems your mobile network is typically pretty patchy. This can really drain your battery too.
I've been chasing wakelocks since I got my device and think I'm at a pretty good place. I get 2.5-3hrs of screen on time (about 20% screen brightness) across about 25hrs of standby time. Does anyone else get a lot of mmc1_detect and mmc0_detect wakelocks?
thanks woodrube. I will post my stats at the end of the day. I don't have a facebook or google + or any app that have notifications or updates by itself. I have the screen set to 20% brightness
