Soo I finally put the battery through a full day of use and I must say that it does not live up to being a 3360mah battery, with that being said @ $26, it does hold up for about the same time as stock so I'll continue to use it as a back up. If I had to make this purchase again I wouldnt. You can get 2 anker batteries for the same price and they will last the same...
Here are some screenshots of my usage. I've been on wifi most of the time and about 3 hours or so on 3g. My usage involved lots of facebook, whatsapp, frequent web browsing using boat browser, a few youtube vids and a couple short calls...

Damn for $26, you're better off returning it and getting ones from Anker. You get two with Anker or Hyperion

Seems worse than OEM battery to me. With autobrightness, I've been able to surpass 5 hrs screen-on time with the stock battery.

I didn't think I would like it at all either. However I have grown to love it, the way it is places on this phone actually helps holding it better. Of course that is just my opinion.
I've been on stock unrooted latest update for a couple of weeks, and even with 4G on the battery life is fantastic, I'm at 40% after 1d 11h! Thanks HTC for all your hard work, now hurry up and give me some ICS!

Stock battery moderate use, check email, played some games, browsed web xda, texted etc. I just recall in the past my battery would die on 4g super quick after a few hours even when barely using it. So its a fantastic improvement.

That is certainly better than what I can report running Thundershed 1.2. For me, it is down to 40 - 50% in 24 hours (I charge it once per day) , mostly on 3G and on Rezound battery with moderate use. What about anyone running sense roms?
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
I've seen similar results to the OP on the stock rom. I have the Rezound battery as well, but after the last couple official updates, battery life seemed much improved, even with the stock battery. I forgot to post screenshots, but at one point I was at over 24 hours w/o charging and like 45% battery life left (with minimal usage and constant 4G).

Wow that is pretty cool. I can not really get a good assessment of my phone battery life. It is a 30-45 minute commute to work so my phone is in the cradle running 4G and Google Music. Then at work it is trying to ping services hard because of a secured area. So generally I leave work and it is struggling on 40% after sitting in a cubby for 12 hours. And my phone is all stock baby.
It really depends on where you are as well. When I am outdoors close to a cell tower with excellent signal strength, I can go a whole day and barely move the battery meter. However if I travel or am inside with a poor/decent signal, the battery dies much faster.
I also get really good battery life on my thunderbolt. Heavy usage, music, games, browsing on some wifi but mostly 3g (no 4g in my area yet), and I get about 15 to 17 hours on a single charge. Definitely lasts all day for me.

I am using a stock battery on my G2x and am debating purchasing a new one on Amazon. This is my last reading from 100 to 0 percent : (attached files)
Are the results good or should I purchase a new battery? And if so, which one? No batteries that require a bigger back door please, thanks!
Also, I am running 4.0.4
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I can pull a little more than that if I'm not fighting for signal...
Do you use anything like Juice Defender? Or maybe a similar function within the ROM?
I'd try stuff like that before purchasing a battery. But... it's always nice to have a spare.
Actually I see that your screen display is taking up the most battery so just lower the brightness of your phone and you will see results.
Thanks for the reply! I use a battery saving app... forgot the name of it. I know the app icon is an Android.
The screen was hogging up the battery because I was using my phone a lot. Games and browsing.
Thanks for the feedback.

It appears as though your phone never went to sleep?
Were you using the phone the ENTIRE time? Cause with only 3 hours of screen time and 7 hours of uptime, then why was the phone not sleeping at least a little bit in the extra 4 hours there?
16 hrs on HFP CM7.2 still 57 percent left.

click on the screen tab and post that screenshot also. Thanks
i got almost 3.5 days when i changed over to EB 4.0.4 with some texting, a few calls, a couple hours of reddit, and lots of mp3 playing. so far with having the g2x i have found that using auto with the screen and keeping wifi off will give alot of battery life no matter what with custom roms.
i am also using the anticipatory scheduler so it jumps around and a bit of undervolting.
Update to my last post. I had to reboot in the morning, so add like 20 more minutes to screen time for accuracy. I am pleased considering all the gaming and browsing. Definitely worth the extra bulk. Reliability before phone aesthetics.

This is a dumb statement. Literally no one else on the board has relayed anything even close to this, yet to you its the firmware?
Your anecdotal experience isn't the rule of thumb. YOU are having a problem, not the FW package.

Seems like you are having problems with deepsleep, could you install CPU spy, and verify the time in each frequency, specially when the screen is off?
Comparing absolutes battery time is kind of lame, is like saying you car last 20 days with 5l of gas.

I got my note from tmob and have it on att.
After root and killing all the bloat, the battery is just amazing on this phone.
I am at 1 day and 10 hour off the charger with screen time of 3 hours and 52 minutes and I still have 49% battery
Thats with facebook and gmail checks all day and running in the background. Photos, text etc etc.
Finally 2 day + phone
I'm actually pretty disappointed by the battery life... I "only" get 6.30h ost and 1 day battery life(no wake locks and the phone is settled pretty well with useless function disabled), with sync always active and on wifi only, I personally thought that it will be better considering all the good comments on the webs, I was getting the same battery with my iPhone 5 before(that it's very criticised for its battery).

My Note 3 has had awesome battery life, far exceeded my expectations! 10hrs at work with moderate to heavy use with a signal only 75% of that time (inside a building with thick concrete and re bar, not the phones fault). At most ive used 48% of the battery and that does not include the commute. I have sync turned on as well.

Syncing it self is turned on, its the individual settings that's been changed:
Sync Chrome? no..
Sync Gmail? no...
Sync My Tracks? no...
Sync Picasa Web Albums? no...
Sync ChatOn Contacts? no...
Sync Samsung Calendar? no...
Sync Internet? no...
Sync Scrapbook? no...
Sync Skype Contacts? no...
So I'm not really sure what you're getting at. K9 handles my mail via push. Google calendar, contacts and one or two other things is left on but everything else I don't need it waking up my CPU every so often to sync.
Also for the Accuweather widget, all the battery saving features are turned on (which aren't on by default for some reason), sync every 4 hours.
@op : could you tell us which bloat you removed?
Also is there anyway to root safely that doesn't void the warranty?
I have the N9000 version
basically anything that was tmobile or just garbage. I also freeze a lot of stuff I simply never use. S-voice.. nope.
Not sure on the warranty thing. I am fairly certain this will trip the Knox counter which I dont think has been cracked to roll back... but thats just my understanding.
Battery life is pretty decent, provided you manage your phone as opposed to being a lazy sod who sets everything to automatic.
"But it's meant for it!" being the world's most idiotic excuse after "she asked for it", everyone with a scrap of common sense understands that there is a whole universe between 'what the customer wants' and 'what is possible according to the laws of physics'.
WiFi eats about 15% per hour, with the screen off. 3G 5%. Add the screen and cpu to that and make you own calculations.
I do 10 days with mine if I turn everything off and manually toggle 3g on once every 2h to check mail.
I've been on 3g, tapatalk & 30% brightness, went from 100% to 94% in 10 minutes.

I use it mainly for office purpose and email exchange is ever hungry on push mails. I was quite disappointed to see that I was charging twice a day in day time. But after the OTA update things seems better, where I charge only in night.
Anyways, I got my 12,000 mah power bank for emergencies. I hate swapping batteries.
My heavy uses are exchange emails, browsing, WhatsApp. That's all, and yet Note 3 craves more power. Need on the go sunlight/light charge system

My battery last so long that at the end of the day I am doing stuff make it run down.
Of course I turn off wifi when not using and data.
I am pretty sure with root I could get more but I need my warranty for at least another month.
Usually a device will show its faults in a month so I will wait.

I've had my N3 for a week now, and compared to my razr HD, it runs at least a day longer. I'm on about 3 full days per charge.
As my phone is more or less a toy, I don't use the internet part that much (I have a 200MB restriction) while away from home, but regularly use wifi for about an hour per day. Other than that, I use it for puzzle games and reading.
I know that this won't match others usages, but I'm ok with 3 days. Maybe if I tweak some settings, I get 4???
I'm quite disappointed too with the battery, the screens chews up too much battery on full brightness
