yes that 20 means i have 20 percent left, for those of you that think galilio sucks make sure you charge it right, first time up run it to it die, then charge all the way back up using the charger that came along with it(thats what i did not sure if it matters), do this a couple of time, also dont forget to wipe battery stat under recovery...
this is with 2 hours of GPS 2 hours of Tunein radio (use alot of bandwidth believe it or not)
and light texting, no calls brightness are from 40% at night to 60% at day time (running bright day apps ) live wallpaper is running. i am also running sense, htc friends stream update every 2 hours (gonna up it to 1hr to see result) htc stock is 4 hours (up it to 2hr to see result) news stream is manual (up it to 4hr to see result), i am not running advance task killer, cause i dont believe it work.
for 19 bucks and a month of wait time, its worth it for me

Lith ion battery right? Your cycling is not needed. Its a myth.

Not bad.
I get the same results with the 1800mah EVO battery though.

Yup, conditioning the battery doesn't work and doesn't do anything for Li ion batteries. Its out dated info from the days when phones used NiCad batteries. Draining your battery to empty may also render your battery unable to take a charge (the safety circuit is not always guaranteed to prevent over discharge). Discharging below 20% should be avoided.

What power cycling does is calibrate the battery meter on the phone. It does nothing to the battery (at least nothing good). The best way to calibrate the battery meter is charge to full, then drain to 20%, repeat a couple times.

Thank you! I am so sick of people talking about calibrating lithium ion batteries which is an annoying, common misconception. If you're having trouble, remove the battery and make sure the cells aren't swollen and just wipe batterystats.bin

well you guys can say what you want, thats how i did it and it give me relatively longer battery life then stock, plus i'm tire of having my screen at low brightness, now i can have it high and not worried about running out of juice

i guess ill be picking one up

well guys it turn from good to ****ty (OEM life)

What this guy said!!

Battery now dying...

So I'm like wtf all of a sudden my battery is like at 40% by noon, and I recharge and it gets to the same within a couple of hours }
I don't get it not even a year yet
BTW I'm stock froyo/ rooted
Bad battery ? Any one else experience this? I have juice defender set CPU
Battery stats say main cause is "cell standby" any tricks to fix this?
No I'm not going to gb
meh...

Well, in the end, that's the best that froyo can do for the G2X...
I had Froyo and i pulled off 6hrs, when i got GB i was able to pull off 8, so yea, juice defender really wouldn't give you that much more battery life, the best shot is to upgrade the ROM.

i would consider updating it :/ i've never had froyo but since i've been using gb i get 15+ hours out of my phone and that's with heavy texting, internet browsing, some netflix watching and a little gaming. but cell standby seems to be my biggest problem too i wish i could fix that

Running froyo I was getting at least 14-16 hours.
Usually bad battery life can be accredited to less-than-optimal user settings, heavy device usage, or there's a rogue app that's sucking your battery down.

and as you can see i still have about half a battery left. the only precaution i really take is that my brightness is almost down to zero. and on my old phone it used to show in the battery settings if i used a certain application such as internet or ebuddy. i have no idea why it won't show those on this device so you can't see my heavy internet usage, gaming and some netflix watching.

and just for reference i'm running complete stock no root or anything. i'm now on one day and two hours worth of battery with 30% still left

I had froyo on my phone for about 3 hours and I lost 10%. I have any version of GB on my phone and I lost 10%/hour. So it's a huge jump ATM.

Hey OP, can you post a list of your apps? Use listables. I want to compare it against mine. If there are any similar apps then I'm going to disable/uninstall mine and check battery life and report back.

Have you tried booting into recovery and erasing battery data? That greatly improved battery life on my Nexus S after it had undergone multiple ROM flashes.

The ROM you're using is a huge matter. With CM7, i couldn't go a day without charging. Now, with MIUI, I'm pretty sure I can get 3 days, with normal brightness, and my normal use, which is email and texting.

I'll try tonight! Just letting it fully charge, then wiping/calibrating!

I found that if I turn data off sync off the battery lasts over twice as long. I don't need it consistently on, so I turn it on when I'm not busy. Works for me

You know what I find weird. It doesn't matter if I turn data off or not cell standby will still use the same amount of battery and my battery still drains at the same rate.

[Q] Freezing / battery charging

My Nexus S constantly freezes on battery. It's very slow, and unresponsive, it rarely stays alive fore more than 5 minutes. It's completely unusable on battery. Oddly, if it's charging it might work (still pretty slow and unresponsive after booting but it eventually sorts itself and works.) Another thing is the battery has *never* held a charge above 95%. Every-so-often it will charge to 96 or 97 but left connected to the charger it will start discharging and settle back to 95%.
It's running CM nightly. the battery charge problem happened even on the stock ROM. The freezing is probably a recent problem, I don't use this phone often enough to know.
Does anyone know about either of these problems? Is it related to CM? I don't want to switch to the stock ROM if I don't have to. The only reason I'm trying to use this phone is my DHD gets abysmal battery life. The other day, barely using the DHD, I went from 100% battery to 10% in just 6 hours.

what do you mean by "freeze on battery" ? i know single word , but when these 3 words combined a sentence , i have no idea
by what you say 95% , that's normal , if you are using kernel that does not indicate it can makes battery charge to 100% , then you won't be charge to 100% , mostly 95% tops , sometimes get pass 95% due to overcharge protection.
i assume your problem is your phone running pretty slow ?
you may wanna check your CPU usage because some applications may be running background and has high CPU usage
also you need check your battery's voltage , low voltage output will make CPU run slow due to not enough power ...
anyway , personal suggestion , first of all , back up your personal data and then flash stock ROM see if it is ROM problem , and then we could think of something else
good luck

Newest cm7 kernel charges to 100, older ones 95 is the norm.

its not a real 100%, its a cosmetic change. its actually charging to the same place it was before, just the number was altered to say 100%. if you look at the mV you will see. 4195-96 is a real 100% charge

"freeze on battery" means that it only freezes when the power source is the battery. Plugged in to my computer or a charger and it doesn't happen.

try use another battery , i think it may be freeze due to low power output that makes CPU and other hardware do not have enough juice to function properly

Solved
I've solved the problem... I removed 120 apps from the phone and have had no problems since. I don't know if it was one particular app causing a problem or just that I had so many installed.

i think it's some of them , becuase i have also that much applications as well ...

My understanding is that the battery drops fairly rapidly from 100% to 95% before stabilizing to a slower, more controlled drop
I think this was detailed in the Synergy ROM thread

It might be because you are in cell standby a lot, are you in a low signal area majority of the time? Checking for signal 41% of the time, might account for the battery decreasing so fast.
It also seems that the international phones are getting a firmware update to address cell standby battery drain, but I don't know if it pertains to us in the U.S. http://blog.gadgethelpline.com/samsung-seeds-firmware-update-fix-cell-standby-battery-drain/

No, usually most phones will charge to 100 then stop charging and let the battery drain a little, many phones down to 90 then recharge again. That way it doesn't harm that battery.
Now personally I always preferred trickle charging where the phone pulls just enough that it doesn't drain at all, but there has always been debates on if this destroys your battery faster.

Nexus 5 battery problems

Hi. I have a two-months-old Nexus 5 (stock ROM & kernel; rooted). Two days ago my battery suddenly started having some problems. First of all, it doesn't last more than 1-2 hours with normal phone usage. Then it often becomes hot, even when not charging. Last but not least, if I keep using my phone while charging, it charges incredibly slowly, or it doesn't charge at all (the charge remains stable). I'm using the stock charger. Any suggestion?

The Nexus 5 has been proven to last longer then an SGS4 which has a bigger battery, and the HTC one with the same size battery (under proper testing conditions) all while using a faster SoC. Do you troll the forums for those phones as well?
Maybe a Moto G or LG G2 would suit some people better for their increased battery life, but that doesn't mean you need to troll every thread on here with false accusations.
If you'd like any more proof on how the N5 battery lasts longer and is more efficient than competing phones of higher prices, just let me know.

Go into device settings > Location. Set Mode to Device only. Ensure that the Google location reporting in that same area is off.
Take another BBS log and post it.

I experience the same issues. Not charging when connected or even lose charge when connected. I am still figuring out what causes it. First of all try using the original cable and charger. Second, disconnect the charger when the screen is on, I read somewhere that can help as well.
Today I had the same issue again, but just before I started charging, the battery would lose 1% per 2 minutes and my phone became very warm.
If I find out more, I will let you know.

That is the problem. That particular wakelock belongs to Google Now. I hope you don't use it, because the solution is to turn it off (from within the program). You could try force stopping and/or wiping it's data. But the fact of the matter is that it's a bug in the app.
Google Now has been this way since it was released. The only conclusion I can draw is that Google doesn't care. It's never behaved properly. And that location reporting (that you've now disabled) is completely out of control, been that way for a year now. I actually greenify the Google apps now. I'm tired of putting up with the lazy programming. Keep, Now, Chrome, Drive, Maps, I greenify all of those. I still allow them to sync, but Greenify will kill them again after they are finished.

Good to hear. If anyone else see's Android OS or Search taking up 50% or more of your battery that can be mitigated.

Take out your Battery, put it on a flat surface say a table. Try to Spin it....if it spins over 2 rounds then you need to buy a new battery.
