hi
i opened this thread to see how long people's battry lasts and if theres a need to replace battery.
please mention your usuage and what rom you are using.
ill start off:
using Thjap version 18b stock kernel.
usage:
1 hour of music.
10 minutes calling
3g is on 3-4 hours a day
1 hour of utube video
wifi is on 4-5 hours a day
1 hours massaging.
overall : phone lasts from 8 am till 11 pm... pretty good .
ok
rom: Xperia X10S v.9
usage:
hsdpa all day (unlimited data plan ),synch with google,email,hotmail,whatsapp,network location services.
2 hours of music,whrn im working out,(pandora radio,dont ask me how i listen to a radio thats only available inside the U.S. )
sending whatsapp messages all day(like 5 hours per day)
reading my work emails
youtube videos almost 1hour
calling 30 mins
from 100% to 55% in 4-5 hours,at 1.pm i let my phone in peace.
i got home at 4 pm,then i do a second recharge,go to gym and return home with 80%,then i go to bed with almost 50%,when i get up its in 40%,then i do a full recharge,and the cycle starts again.
overall: from 100% to 0% in 8 hours of heavy usage
not bad for a medium heavy user,and a battery that has more than 2 years.
Nice!!!!
24h with normal usage... expensive usage 8 hours from 100% to 0%
I have a 1950mAh battery, on light usage about 3days. And medium usage about a day and a half and heavy 12hours on medium brightness.
Rom: donuthd with stock kernel.

Mokee v.2: 3 hours in zenonia 4 gameplay non stop. 100-25%
24 hours if not gaming with normal osage(Sms and wifi-ing)
Nice eh?
Batterybay
Bought the 2600mah extended battery for X10 from Batterybay(.)net
light usage it actually goes 4 days and heavy usage in general it's 3 days or less, most usually 2
Because of the large screen(maybe?) reading manga or looking at a pic for a few hours, or basically just keeping screen on for a few hours drains it a lot, I recall reading manga for hours then it reduced to just 2 days or less but overall Im really satisfied this battery even if the extra thickness is quite compromise in looks
I think anything higher that 1900 would need a new back cover so I went for one which would keep it the same.

Hello,
I was wondering, there are a few topics regarding battery life on the x10, about gutting apps out, now I done so, but what is odd is I have heavily, heavily used my phone, wifi never shuts off, even when the screen is off, listened to music for a few hours, a few phone calls, installed/uninstalled 15+ apps, sent texts, literary sat in bed and used my phone for over 6 hours straight, then an hour here, hour there, etc and my battery is at 50% after 17 hours since being plugged in.... Is this normal?

You are lucky, I do the same as you and my battery is nearly dead in about 12 hours.
How have you managed to get your phone to last that long???
Did you play any games at all?
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
No I haven't played any games.. ive launched one for two minutes, (paradise island).. So I passed out forgot to plug my phone in, out was around 40%, my battery is now at 28% no charging yet,
1 day 6 hours 22 mins so far.
I will have to post what I gutted on 2.1 when i have a moment
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
I think, that is normal, i usually surf the web on mobile internet(3g) around an hour or 2(except weekend which i usually browse for 12 hrs, not straight though), play games(about an hour). flow updates(30 minutes interval). I usually get 1 day and a half. but for very heavy intensive use of games, I usually got around less than 24 hrs.
though 3g is extensive than wifi, as long that your cpu & gpu doesnt get crunching too often then you'll get the best out of x10's battery life. for example reading an article on a website, about 2-4 tabs.
OK so today this is what I've done with my phone:
2 hours of music playing via headset
half an hour of music playing via external speaker
half an hour of voice talking
like 100 messages sent/received
30 minutes of internet/facebook browsing
2 albums of 100 MB each sent via bluetooth.
10 minutes of office editing
It's on 35% now and that drained after 11 hours(with the above use). Is it normal? Is my battery faulty? Is it an overuse of the phone?
That sounds completely normal for your SGS2. That's a lot of usage right there you know.
A custom rom based on android 2.3.4 (and up) and Juice Defender will certainly give you double the juice. It does for me!
That was good enough. 4-5 hours screen on time us the most I get..wifi and 3g on, push naik, stock room on speed mod kernel.

Sounds about right for that amount of usage, 100 texts in 11 hours day though crikey
BTW Juice Defender Ultimate will use as much battery as it saves so it is not recommended, this is coming from someone who used to be a huge fan but i was advised to uninstall it and ive saved loads more battery without it.
So am I, jonny68! Works good enough for me!

i guarantee you if you compare battery life with Juice Defender Ultimate and then freeze it and test, you'll save considerably more battery without,7 hours extra i got
was using JD. It crippled the phone..missed calls, late emails and so on. I stay stock, freeze Bloatware and use speedmod kernel, takes me thru the day with 4 hours screen on time, wifi 3g normal use.

I usually get over 16-18 hours of being unplugged about 3 - 3.5 hours of screen on time before I charge it (and go to bed) hehe.
I use JD free ver., balanced profile, right now and i have to say that at the moment works really good. It impressed me!I'm on stock. i surfed the net for 30 min(stream video and sites) my battery is still full. Usually it would be 1/4 less. Anyway, i don't know about you guys, but for me it seems to work ok. (i'm using it for a week now)

Usually, on weekends, or holidays, I use my phone for Angry Birds, many other games, music, etc for a long period of time. Today I managed to get about 5 hours use until the battery got to 30%.
I'm not sure whether or not this is good or bad and so I'm wondering; how many hours do you get out of it, in relation to being a heavy user, medium user or light user?
Thanks
about 5/6 hours max
With normal usage 24-30 hrs. Wth heavy use, 8-10 hrs.

pretty much the same
always have 3g on and im quite sure i listen to music for 7 hours at least while im at my office...and by the end of the day i have like 20%
10 days and still going
With all data disabled most of the time, almost unused, but still connected to the GSM network, mine is now at more than 10 days (and I think it wasn't even fully charged at the start of this period). This is with stock ROM, Apex launcher, almost no other custom apps.
It's hard to have an effeicient answer since it depends on many factors : the way you use your phone, your ROM , Kernel and all setting stuffs etc ... . And even with same settings , two SGS II can have a totaly different battery drain. So, you can compare but it wont realy be so efficient .
Anyway , for me with a usual use : almost 2d and with heavy use about 16-24 h. I m on Wanamlite 10.6 with last Siyah V3.0 Kernel.
At weekends 5 hours max weekdaus prob 8-9 hours
Mod or Die
Plenty of hourly syncing and light use....
Stock rooted KL1 + LPR radio
I have tried 3 different ROMs and with the last ICS ROM i had 8-9 hours with heavy use of 3G/Bluetooth/sync ... and of course it's depends of what apps (games ) i use among the day ...
awesome how some users get 24 hours with a single battery charge.
When I use my S2 as a normal phone, about 20 hours.
But with heaving usage and gaming (which I do pretty much) probably between 6 or 8 hours also.

Woah :O Doesnt matter had "10days" :O
i guess screen on time is more important than overall battery time. I Used to get 4hr screen on time with a full day usage which is quite good for me and i think its average.

+1 Agreed here are some on my screen shots.
Usually prefer to watch youtube video's through browser So flash is must & it is a nice battery drainer too.Plus 4 hours of non-music playback !
Brightness - 20%
When i use gprs heavily it is very less!
Normal use may last a day!
Playing games also burns the battery pretty fast!
I have a Superatmos ROM installed in my Galaxy SII i9100G and I get around 30 to 35 hours of standby time with normal to low use. I do however browse the internet over WiFi some 4 hours a day.
I am quite happy with the performance of my phone.
So far its three months but its like Triggers Broom .

Hi all,
I was wondering what a "normal" battery usage is for the S2.
Mine (cm9) 10% per hour, pretty much idle.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
There is no "normal" battery life. There are literally a million variables and thus no answer.
In terms of expectations - you would expect more life per charge from Stock GB, Custom GB, Stock ICS, Custom ICS in that order. Remember that ICS by its nature uses more resources generally and will not match GB for battery life.
Also, ignore wild claims about many hours with the screen on - it is a trick - they have the screen all black so no current draw...
Last time i was using Ressurection remix v1.3 AOKP i was getting 7 hours per 3% Phone was idle all the time Now i am using Thebyan 4.2 and battery drops 6% per 8 hours (idle all time )
And I am getting around 4:20 hours of battery life with normal usage ( screen on all the time plus Browsing via WIFI) Brightness - 10 percentage.
And while playing HD Games only 90 minutes !!
Well i prefer screen-on time over idle time

^^ this. Probably the best answer I've seen on here all week. No such animal. Just like there's no way you're going to get the same 'performance' with a given rom or kernel as someone else; which makes the "What's the best rom for <insert criteria here>' questions redundant and a waste of time as well.
This morning from 100 to 78 in 2 hours using edge and tapatalk xda forum. Screen at 50, GPS on, little Facebook. on formula one rom
Four days less if i switch the phone on .Even less if i use it .
jje
I get about 2 hours per 1% battery. That is with wifi on and screen off. If I have wifi turned off and airplane mode on I will get about 7 hours per 1% battery.
I always have my phone in airplane mode turned on, and wifi turned on, as I don't use the mobile network, and I am always in range of a wifi network
Cheers corey

CM9 and a lot of AOKP roms drain battery faster. Anyway my battery drain when idle is roughly 1% every 7 hours
well i get a decent life ,iam fully loaded an always install something,android is power hungry,so i don expect much of batt life...but i turn off wat iam not using like data,,,an in the night i listen to dubstep so i keep in flight mode an in morning switch back,so yes neva measured batt life,but happy....
Hi, guys, I am curious to know roughly how long can your battery last after unplugged from full charged?
Mine normal usage of whole day whatsapp, minor web browsing, and some music listening, Maximum can last 24hrs.
I would like to know whether this is normal for mediapad or there's something wrong with the battery?
Thanks in advance^^
Which model? Mine MP7 Lite also has low battery life. I charge it daily.
Sent from my MediaPad 7 Lite using xda app-developers app
For me, with Internet relatet apps & wifi, no games, no vids, active display time up to 4,5hs.
Otherwise its off most of the time instead of standby, which is mostly useless if wifi goes into standby as well, else it will draw mucho power.
For me, normal use lasts in round about 5 to 6 hours.
Navigation with full brightness, WLAN/MobileData on, sometimes switching to webbrowser or to shazam... 16% in 40min - or >4h.
(normally the pad is plugged, while driving
Just to give an idea.
Greets Gunnar
mine can last up to 6 hours of browsing with 25% brightness
Yeah, brightness is the key for saving battery!
If you look into the settings/accu you'll see, that round about 50% goes with the battry.

5 hours. you can stay 24 hours? thats great bro

God sake, that was in stock rom, now with Latest CM 10.1 update, mine can last roughly 4-5 hrs MAX. How sad T_T
Really hope some one will develop a battery saving kernel to save our battery by running down so fast :crying:
