My RAZR HD is getting bad battery. Been off the charger for 3.5 hours and I have been sending some emails and texts for a total of 59 minutes screen time and I'm down to 72% battery. What gives?
Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 2
Go to settings - Battery, and look to see what is eating all of your battery... Plus check your screen on time...
If nothing looks out of place then if you recently took the JB OTA i suggest doing a factory reset. It seems to help people with similar issues.
How long have you had the device? I personally treat new devices just as I would when flashing a new Rom build. Trying to not judge battery life until its been setup and used for a few days.

3.5 hrs of screen time is atrocious as indicated by the screenshot above.
Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 2
That was the only time I ever hit 7. I average about 4 1/2 hours of screen on time. 3 1/2 seems a but low to me but it all depends on what you're running. Plus if you have a weak 4g signal that can seriously hurt a battery.

I bought the phone about 2days and I`m not happy with battery by now... And I set the smart actions to save battery..
(At the first moment with the phone, flashed Retail LATAM with RSD Lite)
Well.. I`ll wait for a few days..!
4 hours of screen time is about the average for most people, which is way more than most androids. The galaxy nexus I remember was only about 2.5 hours. I've had the phone last me about 2 days on one charge, but again, 4ish hours of screen time. If you sit with the screen on non stop for 4 hours, the phones dead. You'll lose barely anything just sitting idle
I have the RAZR Maxx HD. I'm at 4 1/2 hours of on screen time with 35% of charge left. I'm happy with the phone so far. I've had it for a week now.

I usually get 6-7hr screen on time with my RMHD. Of course I'm using the 2x battery app as well. Mainly because I have a less than stellar 4G signal where I work. I don't have the app active when on wifi, just mobile data.

Why would a factory reset brick you? Whoever told you that is wrong. Also you can go back to ICS. Pretty sure there is a France 4.0.4 fast boot file in the development section.

How did that one member get 7hrs screen time? My XT925 has "slightly" better battery life than my old HTC One X with CM10. I was expecting it to be a noticeable difference!
I'm running a CM10 now on the XT925 and it's a bit better but on the stock Moto Firmware it was pretty bad. I'm on my 5th or full cycle on the battery.
I got 7 hours because I didn't do anything but gtalk, text and check the forums once or twice. I was on WiFi too.

Still no matter what you're doing just havin the screen on for that long will tax your battery. I'm still out on the battery life on this phone. My HTC One X has a much smaller battery but lasts about the same (1800mAh vs 2530mAh).

Nice! After having that damn iPhone I got so used to plugging in my phone whenever I am near a charger...I get paranoid whenever it drops below 90% lol. I gotta drop that habit and actually test out what kinda battery life I can get with this thing.
Wow the moment I have LTE on... I barely get 10hrs of usage. (Mind you I'm on it all the time and constantly)...
So it's not bad. But will see what happens with LTE off.
Managed to stay off charger for over 3 days 4 hours this weekend, before the phone died earlier today.
Just a little over 2 hours screen time. No LTE. The rapid dip was when I was playing Shadowgun yesterday.
can you guys post the settings you're running to get that type of battery life?
push email? what's sync'ing in the background and are you on LTE?

Guys earlier I posted an unboxing video in another thread. That video is right here.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BryoOlaWQaU&feature=plcp
Then I spent the next 4 or 5 hours trying to get the freaking thing activated. That finally happened, but I haven't had much time with the phone. Anyways, here's a quick video showing the boot up, and some speed tests on 4G LTE. This phone is beast! (it may be sideways for a bit but I've rotated it to the right in Youtube, sometimes it just takes a while)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wovT50uGfLw&feature=plcp
Feel free to ask questions, I can try to post more videos over the next couple days but my schedule is literally booked for the next 2 days so I'll do what I can.
Good job

It's looking like the Verizon version is going to have sweet sweet battery life!
The phone starts at about 50% and I still have stellar life out of that! I had rebooted it and connected it via usb to try and get adb shell. Otherwise it would show nearly 20hrs of battery at this point!

Have they fixed that 34ma battery drain issue yet? Officially? I'm a nexus dude but seriously considering returning it and getting in on one of these s3's. Just switched to Verizon and I love, love, love the network. Haven't been with vzw since '07.
I'd also like to know if there is still the bleeding/weeping/leakage of the back lights on the white version? Like there was on the white galaxy s 2.
Thanks.

I'm not aware of this battery drain issue you speak of. If it exists on my phone, I can obviously obviously with it. The cell standby numbers are way too high, especially considering I was on full LTE coverage all night. My epic4g had a similar issue and it was fixed via software fairly quickly.
Mine is blue so I can't comment on your other question. Yes, the Verizon network is AWESOME!

"The cell standby" that is the Battery drain issue he is referencing, it is not really a "real" drain issue, more a reporting issue.
Even with the drain issue that battery life is awesome. Thank you for posting your initial thoughts and battery stats.
After I get fully charged up again today I will leave it off any charge and post the full drain stats.

In my opinion bars from right chart are not corresponding to % used on a left side.
For example Screen On reflects that it was On almost all the time but Screen % is only 27.
Plus not sure why do you have black gap in a middle of a graph.
I tried cleanRom and my battery life is normal again. The black gap is hotboot under the restart menu

I am on v1.7 and the thing that helped me get more battery life out of this version of the ROM was to turn off Google NOW. I did this by hitting the mic in the google search bar, go into Setting and turn off google now. Incidentally the voice search functionality still works; when I try something like "What year was Albert Einstein born?", the robotic voice gives me the right answer. lol. Right now I don't have a need for the cards.
I loved Synergy, but the battery ran out much quicker than I would want it to. CleanROM was the best ICS rom for me, battery wise. I'm currently on the official CM10 nightlies and I get decent battery out of it as well.
it's because of spywares exist in custom kernel wich run background all time and use data without permission
If you use your phone on nonstop it drains quickly. I would live to tweak my phone to try to get over 5 hours screen on time. 3.5 hours and higher is good from my experience.

Mine is about the same, Stock and Rooted. Running great though and more smoothly than Stock on Clean Rom 1.3

Dude go to some research. You have no idea what you are talking about. The Kernals are stripped down for performance and exclude the "spywares" go use your internets to research before you start making these claims.
Okay, I've just noticed this the past couple of days, but when I look into my battery usage I notice that wifi is getting turned on by itself at some point during the day and remaining on for a little while.
I rarely use wifi, so it shouldn't be turning itself on, I also checked to make sure none of the smart actions crap was activating it, no wifi direct or anything of the sort either. I'll include some screen shots. Running completely stock ICS, most recent OTA update.
Does anyone have an idea of why this is happening and what I can do to stop it? Thanks.
UPDATE:
After one day on the official jelly bean ota update I'm still having this issue. More screen shots included.

I have not yet received the update, so I can't tell anything. But when I check my battery usage during the time that it's on I have nothing about wifi in the notification bar, always says I have a 3G data connection. And it seems to only do it when I have the screen off for long periods of time, usually during school. So maybe if my phone is going into deep sleep that has something to do with it?
I guess I'm gonna wait for the JB update before I call Verizon and see if they maybe know about this bug and will ship me a new razr...

Okay, thanks. I'm actually downloading the JB soak to install right now. I'll update with some more screen shots, results etc. After a couple of days on it.

I updated the thread with my results after most of my first day on JB. Also (and I'll feel really stupid if this was the problem all along) just today I noticed I had android beam on, but that's just NFC right? Wifi direct was set to off, so it should he fine, but just a thought.
I've also told my phone to "forget" all wifi networks, since it is doing it suspiciously only when I'm at school and I have connected to the school's wifi network before. Even though this should NOT be a problem anyway, since auto connect is off. Who knows, maybe that will be a temp fix for this weird bug.
By the way, thanks all, it's always reassuring when I'm not the only one with a problem

Geez, that's definitely not normal.
If you look at my screen shot, it almost seems like my wifi turns on when the GPS is activated (I leave GPS on). I wonder if turning off all location services will solve this. I'm about to try it now.

Okay, I think I've at least figured out what my problem was. Don't know if it will help with yours. When I went in and told it to forget all of my wifi networks it stopped having problems. I think it must have been trying to connect to the school's wifi even though every wifi related setting was turned off... Must be a bug. So that was my problem, I'd give that a shot if you haven't already. I'll include a screen shot of it working.
It didn't save me as much battery as I thought it would, but it's an improvement. Hope I could help.

Lets talk about battery life.
I for one am getting terrible battery life. I use the at&t variant 100% stock and unrooted, I get maybe 8 hours of use with 2 hours of screen on time if I'm lucky. I only have a few apps like Facebook , clash of clans, imdb and a weather app that has sync turned off. Maybe someone can provide some suggestions for me to try and track down my issue.

I do not have this phone myself, but I am thinking of buying it. Your best bet would be to root and debloat any unnecessary ATT software. I had the first flex and ATT had so many preinstalled apps. Second, would be to use a cpu control and change the frequencies or the governer. These are probably your only options until At&t decides to release 5.1

The only reason I haven't rooted yet is because I haven't found a way to return it to stock if things go bad.

Jeez,thats terrible! I have EU H955 version, 5.1.1, and i am always getting around 4h SOT. Never below 3,5 hrs, sometimes 4,5.
At first time battery life was extremely bad. What I did: I rooted, debloated using Titanium, then Greenify in root mode. There is one process named LG MLT that drains battery quickly, you should hibernate that one specially. Now phone runs cool and battery last much longer.
I noticed a big change when i changed the way the phone uses positioning service to only use gps instead of also using wifi and celluar network.
I'm getting around 3 hours screen on time, and even managed to play a little hearthstone (this game drains battery like hell)
All of this with the new 5.1 update
Wanna like this phone, but battery is concerning. My huawei mate 7 would still have 60% around this time Of day. I'm at 38% now with still 2 hours to go...

What about SoT? I can buy G3 32gb for 330e or this for 365e, but I read a lot about bad battery life, even worts that G3, and a lot of other bugs and heat problems, are they fixed with 5.1 and is battery better with 5.1, some ss? Thanks, anyone can answer.
The battery life on mine was a little better b4 the update. I used to get almost 2 full days with light to moderate use. I posted screenshots a while ago somewhere here. It's slightly worse after I updated to 5.1.1 but still can get a whole 24 - 30 hrs no problem. I'm on Sprint though.
Yah i just upgraded to 5.1.1 (available since yesterday for me) and the battery life is way better. I do to have auto-sync turned off though. Been using for 12 hours so far and still at 70% 1.5 SOT so far played a game as well.

Hibernating lg mlt seems to have done the trick. Greenify with out root took care of it. Thanks everyone for the suggestions. Note I get through the day with juice left. Any idea what that process does?

Just disabled mlt. Hopefully that helps with battery life.
I am getting 2 days of use, with probable only like 3 hours of SOT. For me, more than acceptable, but I have noticed, BT kills this thing. If I stream in the car, forget it, it won't last half a day. Even when idle, if BT is on it's a drain.
I can't find it, where's it located
