Would love to be able to do this without a 3rd party app (such as GSam). Any tips would be most appreciated.
Cheers,
Mike.

I know you don't want a third party app but every time I recommend "Battery Widget? Reborn! Beta" people love it.

Download the Cooltool app. It displays remaining Battery percentage amongst more important stats.

Yeah, I've been pretty happy with the features of those ROMs on the phone . However, I understand that the builds aren't quite 'there' yet for the tf700. Using CleanROM atm, which is running like a champ, but could do with a few customisations.

Cheers, Seems pretty similar to GSam Battery monitor which I am using. Would like to minimise 3rd party apps if at all possible though. I don't mind using apps, of course, but if it can be themed into the ROM then would rather not have redundancy.

Looks interesting, any idea if it uses up much processor/memory?

Have you found a way to put the graph over the notification bar? The widget is blocked by the notification bar on my tab.

The developer of the app told me that it's a Jelly Bean issue. I know it worked fine with ICS.

Nevermind.
This one wont shot the percentage in the notification area, but I figured someone might like it.
Dual Battery Widget
It will show the power levels for the Pad's battery and the dock's. If you unplug the dock, it will remember the last power level the dock had and show you that percentage, but will let you know they arent connected anymore.

When I go to check battery status in the settings menu, it says that battery usage not available. Anyone else getting this or know why I am?

Update your firmware to. 29... It is fixed in the update
Sent from my HTC HD2 with WP7.5/android miui using tapatalk
Partially fixed in .29, but still limited battery stats that only show display, wifi but not app use.
Thanks for the replies!
Same here after update to .29 no problems. However no detailed information about apps usage. Only maps, screen and inactive are displayed.

Note! If you go to .29 and you have a rooted .17 your root is gone and you need to redo it.
Maybe just new to the tablet but.. Wi-Fi sucks battery like no tomorrow. Maybe it's the battery monitor built in that doesn't read it right but when Wi-Fi is using 70-80% of the battery (by far bearing screen). Just curious if anyone else has the same thing. Get great battery time with it as long as I'm not paying with it, and in standby it uses next to nothing. Just when on the Wi-Fi goes into overdrive.

My understanding is that the built-in battery monitor just isn't accurate....

Ok cool. I figured that was the case just as it is with my phone. Just had an older phone that was really accurate so just use to that.

Is there some app that will perform the above-mentioned function well? I let my tab's display turn off, but when I want to return to it, I still use the power button.
Any of these types of apps work without major battery drain?

I hope one day there would be an app for TF700 like this one
http://forum.ponury.net/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=562
I tried Awesome On and Off on my Galaxy S phone and found it drained my battery pretty dramatically. I installed the same app on my 700t, and it worked reasonably well, then quit. Re-upped it and then even that started draining the ASUS. Is this just a side effect of these types of apps?
It's a good concept but I can't take the drain.

I'm on stock jelly bean and only getting just under 3 hours of screen on time. This is horrible and besides screen drain I'm getting most of the other drain from wifi. Anyone know whats going on? Any help would be greatly appreciated
Edit. After Google I see it's a known issue

Try killing off Google maps if it's running.
Shut blue tooth and GPS off if not using them.
These couple of things might help.
One thing to know and remember: The percentage mentioned is not how much of your battery it uses, it's how much of the current battery usage belongs to the app/component.
Running any live wallpapers? Auto brightness? Which power-setting mode? Location services?
i am having the exact same issue, balanced mode, 35% brightness, no gps, bluetooth on etc and having only 3 hours on screen? Unfair because this tablet is perfect other then that
I would assume it's normal, it might use more than it's supposed to but wifi and screen will usually be the worst sinners, depending on what use of course.

Thanks bud. It's definitely not normal. After doing research I come to find out its a problem with Asus code. Wifi should never be anywhere close to being reported by the battery use stats. Hopefully we will see a fix sooner or later
Sent from my OGparanoid CM D2tmo
If I am not mistaken an update came out either yesterday or today that had the WiFi issues noted in the changelog. Check the ASUS website.

I have a tablet that has periodic random battery drains. Despite using apps such as Better Battery Stats, I've not been able to eliminate these. It occurred to me that a hibernate app would be an ideal solution. I don't need the tablet to remind me of stuff (the phone does that); I just want it to turn on quickly and not to have drained when I wasn't looking. Is there any such app?
I've been using Greenify and it's working pretty well, but you'll need to be rooted.

Thanks, I'll give Greenify a try. I've not seen any pattern to the problem. It's occasional, but annoying.

There's also this one, but I'll try Greenify first:

Greenify does that pretty good. I've been using it for a while now and my battery performance has improved vastly.
Do any of these apps show actual current drain?
