Well schools about to start and I need a Rom that has really good bat. Currently running viper with no mods and it lasts a good 5hr

Did you try calibrating the battery again? 5 hours is pretty short. Turn off auto-sync, and stick to 3g. And you should have access to WiFi in school, right? I got the extended battery. Money well spent. Shop around, I'm sure you could get one for a decent price.

Calibrating the battery? Is there an app for that? And school doesn't have WiFi so 4g is essential. And extended battery is too expensive. Does the aosp or cm9 do well? I don't want to flash a whole new ROM just to test the battery lol

Grab a spare standard battery and a cheap battery charger. All together its like $12 plus shipping. I got two extra standard batteries. I put on in my backpack and leave the other at home for trips and stuff.

That or get an emergency battery pack they usually can charge your phone twice before needing to be recharged and mine was $30

Are you saying five hours screen on or five hours total?
Five hours screen on is fantastic. I don't think you can do better than that. Five hours total is terrible. If that's all you're getting then something is wrong.

Ineffabilis dues 1.1 has great battery life. When I stick to just 3g, a carefully adjusting brightness, I can get 15+ hrs with moderate use with 2.5-3 hrs screen on time.

Same rom, same stats for me, but I am on wifi most of the time. I can get up to four hours screen on if I'm mostly only using the phone to read a book (FBReader).
Thanks! I'll try it out today

Hello I was just curious as to how long other androids last in terms of battery life as it comes stock (stock battery rom/kernel can be custom) I have an epic 4g and get about 10 hours average of high usage. I want to know which brands care the most about how long their phones last on a days charge.

How long does it take to fully charge your phone with say 30% battery left? I'm curious...

Same as above and it lasts much longer of the charger. Well worth the extra bulk IMO

It only takes 2 - 2 1/2 hours tops from a completely dead battery.

Depends on the charger you use. If you use the charger that came with the rezound, only a couple of hours from dead battery.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
It also depends whether or not you're using your phone while on charge as well.

I have heard that the mugens do last longer but after 3-6
Months they degrade and end up like a stock battery. Not worth it in my opinion. But for extended, it takes about 4-5 hrs to charge mine but I only charge my phone via usb, not wall charger
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
mine can charge in a little under 3 hours with a dead batterry... but then again it is never dead...
its like it cant die. Running n64 emulators, streaming netflix, it still trucks through the day.
I bought the OEM Thunderbolt Extended Battery. Same results as above. 3 Hours to charge from dead. The bulk is also definitely worth it as stated above. After 26 hours I still had 10% battery life. I used bluetooth, wifi, played music, and games though out the day. (Pokemon, Shadow Gun). About 3 hours of screen on time. I do only have 3G enabled (CDMA Only). I'm in a 3G only area.
My phone takes about an hour to fully charge. From 30%, I'd say about 45 min.
Everybody else takes a few hours. I guess mine is just really fast.
Ok thanks for the replies. Thought maybe my battery was defective, but three hours seems about right. My tbolt extended took hour and half, so i thought there was a problem.

Anyone else using it? I've used it since OG Droid, and it's always the first app installed on any phone I get. It claims to be giving me 2.01x battery life, and with any other phone I believed it but I'm seeing people post 2 days no charge and I get about 1.25 days with very heavy use, unless I'm at work (12hr shifts 4 days a week). Thoughts? Some people claim it's junk, and I'm not so sure with a battery as big as ours we need it, or if there is a better alternative? I mean we already have a Battery Saving Mode...

I'm using it,I think if you configure it with the right settings it can save you a good amount of battery.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2
I personally don't think it's needed on this phone because how long the battery already lasts and I like my smartphone to stay smart. But on my lg spectrum I used deep sleep battery saver, it was pretty good.
Also on a side note time up isn't as important as screen time. I could get days if I didn't use the phone, but if you are always on it 12 hours is pretty good
Sent from my SCH-I605 (AKA NOTE 2)
I think battery saving apps are obsolete now because phone's are becoming more battery efficient and batteries are becoming larger (Mah). I don't see any need for a battery saving app anymore especially with this phone. Just uninstall it and some more RAM

Real measurements are whatever YOU use the phone for. I don't get LTE at home so wifi is all I have. If you want a "real" test turn the brightness up all the way and steam videos. Your statement makes no sense.
Makes perfect sense. I have unlimited like tons of other people. Its a phone. Not a tablet. You're not going to be 24/7 on WiFi. To measure real battery is to be on a tower. Not your home internet.

After 5hrs I am at 60% remaining – LTE, Sync off, Falcon pro widget with hourly updates, 2 hours screen on with brightness @ 20%, about 1hour youtube, 1 hour music, 1 hour Streaming music (Tune in Radio & Pandora), 30 minutes browsing, 10 minutes calls.
GSam estimates 9 hours remaining with similar usage pattern.
My GS3 would have been 20% remaining by this time, very happy with the battery life.

Looking at some of your stats it seems like Chrome is a battery hog
It's used 15% of my battery so far compared to 26% for the screen being on 3 hours.
Im impressed with the quickness of the charging time. All results below consist of 40% of the time screen at full brightness, and 40% of the time at min brightness and overall average at about 60% brightness.
Drain:
Total use: 13h 52m
From 5% to off went about 25 minutes 4G streaming the Avengers from Netflix at min brightness. A rate of around 5 minutes to each 1% of battery life. (Image1)
Also impressed with the flatline seen here, that was sleep time from 3am to 9am, glad to see it consumed no power (coming from Thunderbolt so this is new for me) (Image2)
Charging:
Total Charge: 2h 20m
With the phone off, from 0 to 61% took 1 hour:laugh:, from 61% to 100% the phone was turned on and mostly idle with the display off other than missing a call and having to make a call - all on 4G took 1 hour and 20 minutes. (Image3)
I had about 4-5 hours of Pandora streaming during all this as well.
Wanted to embed pics but new here so cant post outside links. Overall happy with the battery and power managment with heavy use.
Put it on the charger. Great battery life.
Ended the day watching Captain America with Plex on the N3.

One great feature of our phones is the option for an extended battery. I run a 5200mah battery and these shots are from a day when i was testing out how many hours screen on time I could pull off
On normal light usage days/weeks I could probably get 4 -5 days no problems. Just I reboot and flash a lot so rarely do I get those screen shots lol
Also I run Mahdi ROM with KToonsez kernel...
