Hello to the group.
I am a New owner of A Google Nexus S GT-i9020T
This is My second Android Device.
It has seen 2 OTA's
1, 3.0-3.2.6 (hours after Activation)(25 Days Ago)
2, 3.2.6-4.0.4 (One Week Ago)
I went on a 5 hour trip and used the Nexus S for GPS (Google Navigation) in Edge Data mode and a car charger connected and charging but after 3 hours the Battery was Dead.(Stock Battery)
My question for the group is;
Is this what I am to expect with the Nexus S GT-i9020T or is this a problem with the Phone/Battery?
I also own the Samsung Vibrant. (for 2 years)
Same exact setup/Charger using My Vibrant and My battery would actually Charge Up full. (Stock Battery) Weather I use ICS, Gingerbread or Froyo roms.
Any feedback on your GPS/Battery usage compared with mine will be helpful.
Other that this, The phone acts Very Good with the 4.0.4 OTA.
Battery lasts over 1day and a half for my usage and charges normaly.
Do I need to request A replacement? or is this normal?
I have Samsung galaxy tab the first version 3g and wifi running android 2.3 sometimes a sudden battery drop from 60% or 70% to 1% and asks to recharge this happened to me 3 months ago and again last week and yesterday and now today :/ I dont know whats the problem can you give me any possible solution please
regards
Hello all! As you can tell, I am new here, but have been 'stalking' the forums regarding the Galaxy Tab more so the Tab 2 7" version. My husband and I just picked up two at our local Walmart last night. We had the Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0 for a while and that was a fun little device, however I found myself wanting a slightly bigger screen. I have been researching a lot regarding tablets and kept running into the Galaxy Tab 2. Battery life standard, according to reviews anyway, has been roughly 7 - 8 hours. That sounds pretty good to me and I am sure I can get better. The standard for the player was roughly 6 hours and I could make it last days, depending on what I was doing obviously. However, I notice that simply turning my device on today after charging fully, once the Samsung screen passes and there is the home screen, I am at 98% or 99%. Is this normal? I am somewhat new to Droid and tablets in general though I learned quite a bit during my time with the player, I may simply be paranoid, haha. Did I make a good choice going with the Tab 2?
P.S. I do apologize if I could have found information regarding the battery life elsewhere.. I found posts regarding battery draining over night, but nothing (that I saw) regarding life after simply turning it on.
Yup seems normal enough to me , I have had mine for nearly 4 weeks and i dont think its ever been a true 100% , even after a full charge.
Obviously the battery will last as long as you use it. If you have all the features on the battery will drain. I'm really glad i purchased my SGT2 7 . I gets better the more i use it and understand it.
This forum is a god send for information !
Its because of the way charging works. It can't just keep pumping juice into the battery otherwise it would damage it, so when it hits 100 it will let it start discharging, even though it still says charging. It will let it discharge until it gets down a few percent and then it will top it back up. This is why you unplug and it shows 99 or 98 or whatever.

If you're turning off the tablet to charge it, and it is unplugged when you turn it on, it will drain the battery booting up. The system sees fairly high CPU usage during boot, plus the screen is on constantly while starting up, so you could loose 1-2%, depending on how long it takes and how long it was sitting unplugged. I generally never shut off my tablet, and always charge it running, so I've seen it sit at 100% for some time.

Hey you can try the app called battery repair it worked for me.if stil not working get the battery replaced
Its normal that it is 99% or 98%. Try DS Battery Saver. I use it on both my devices and when screen is off only about 1 or 2% will be gone after night, even qhen not charging.
hello,
i have been testing custom roms in samsung glide sgh-i927 and the last ones 4.4.2 drain my battery very fast. having problem with this when its at 60% of battery when switching to wifi or 3g automatically switched of. after charging it begins from 0 and in very short time it charges. is there problem with my battery or is any stable ROM for samsung captivate glide.
For those with a smartwatch, have you noticed your smartwatch battery go down faster with the Galaxy S6?
- With my Asus Zenwatch connected to my Xperia Z3, the watch was able to last almost 2 days, but now with my Zenwatch connected to my S6, the watch just lasts a little over 1 day
- Also, I wonder if phone being connected to a smartwatch noticeably affects the battery of the S6. I would assume it will since bluetooth has to be on the whole time
Those with smart watches...have you noticed anything?

I have not noticed a difference, I have the SW3. Looking at the battery stats if anything it seems to last a bit longer than with my Nexus 5.
gear 2 neo here , no problems at all so far
