I've the stock battery with CM10.2 installed with its kernel. My question is, is it normal to have the device fully charged in approximately 11 hours??

Absolutely not. There were times when I got a charge rate of about 1% per minute. On the statistics of the battery monitor widget it shows me 4h 44m, which is longer than I had in the past.
It also depends on what runs when you are connected to the battery. Having the screen on significantly reduces your charging rate, and also services running in the background. You can try "wake lock detector" to see what runs in the background.

As I said, try "wake lock detector". It will show you what's running in the background. Also, batteries get old and require more time to charge. Your charger could also play a role in this, too.

Anker 1900mAh battery is very popular and reliable.
Browse around eBay/Amazon. It's difficult to provide link because some selles won't ship to certain areas.

Could it be you have latitude turned on? This used loads of battery on the phone I just had
I solved it by discharging the battery completely, then I did wipe battery stats and then i re-charged it. now after 6 hours its 94%
What's the typical battery time for the One S? I got mine a few days ago and it just seems like the battery drains away way too quickly than what I read on reviews. 14 minutes in and already at 83%? Yet all I did was use the 3G connection. But my screen consumption is 89% yet I have brightness at below half way, probably 40%. How is any of this possible?! I've got Google's Location service and Location and Google search options turned on, could this be it?
I haven't had the opportunity to go at it for the full day, so that's what I'm gonna do today and see how it goes.

further explain what the hell do you mean? you need to give us a bit more detail on what exactly are you encountering or specifically ask why is this happening.
I included the screen grab didn't I? It says 6 days plus on battery. When the phone lasts only a day. See the screen grab.
And this is after the JB OTA update.

Your being to broad that doesn't mean anything to me all I see is 6days and your charging it every so often what's wrong? Your phone is lasting a day? Explain what exactly your doing you need to specify and further explain what your doing.
For example
In screenie I have 4 days on one charge.
I watched some netflix and barely any usage it was very minimal. And about every other 6 to 12 hours I turn off data and switch on airplane mode as you can see.
Another thing leaving your phone on for that much time just IMO makes the battery life die faster rather than fully charging do your usual stuff till the day ends and once done at night just shut it off charge turn back on in the morn.

Isn't this a bug? It's only supposed to tell me the time the phone's been running on battery since the last charge. See screenshot from my Photon 4G for example.

there is no bug at all. it tells you the time since the phone has been on no from the last charge.
Lets say i use my phone and im around 30% and its been 8 Hours since i turned on my phone from 100%. once i plug it in it will keep track of the time my phones been on (Up time) not from last charge.
there is an app called Better Battery Stats but it causes wakelocks but it will show you those type of stats and more
I think you are mistaken friend. The discharge graph shows the time since the last recharge. See http://support.google.com/android/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2677609&topic=2677645&ctx=topic (last para) for details.

well on my Epic it will say whatever time its been on since turned regardless of being charged or not, ive tested it out on several devices i think your losing your mind haha what does it matter anyways?
Its simply telling you how long you have been using the battery not when it was off the last charge.

For me it happens when the recharge doesn't make the battery goes above 90%. The graph will "reset" when the battery is charged above 90%.

I find that when I have my phone unplugged for like 3-4 hours it drains very quickly once I start using it. For example I'll unplug at like 7 or 8 and go back to sleep, wake up 3 hours later or something. When I start to use my phone it seems to drain a lot quicker. Is this normal for you guys?

Does it drain much during that 3 hour interval? You could try using an app like CPU Sleeper or SetCPU that allows you to turn off a core when the screen is off.
I love the battery life on Synergy 1.3! I haven't flashed to 1.4 yet, kinda liking where my set-up is right now. I'll probably wait until there's a few of the kinks worked out yet.
But yeah, I charge my phone overnight too...It usually comes off the charger about 8am, and at midnight I still have 50-60%, depending on how my day went...Some days, I only have to charge every other...
Looks like you're using about 12-13mA while idling, I am assuming you had mobile network and wifi off? I'm typically at around 24mA with wifi idling

Nope. Data and wifi on although I have sleep set to never when plugged in. I don't think I have anything set to auto update besides push mail though so it probably slept all night with me
This is standard battery as well. I just added the lean kernel and I am getting even better battery life. This is with mild screen time and 2 hours of pandora. You can see in the screen shot that it was only really awake when I had the pandora running.
Crazy battery life.....anyone have comparisons between this and 1.4? Would be interesting to see if the claims by some is true about the additional drain.....

It's lack of apps honestly. I have nothing auto syncing. I'll sync it when I get in the app. Also using better battery stats showed me an app that was wake locking. The lean kernel and battery saver script I'm sure are helping. No need for an extended battery on this baby.
Hey guys ,
As you can tell from the subject of the thread .. I'm problems with my battery .. I'm running stock Rom ! And the phone can only live for 7-8 hours at its best .. is this something normal ? Cause the battery status is good .. I don't understand what's wrong ... I rested the phone to factory settings .. and nothing its the same performance .. 7-8 hours .. with not that excessive use ... Anyone has an idea ? Would really appreciate some help .. cause this f***** up .. 7 hours ... Specially that I wake up at 7-8 am .. so by 3-4 pm the phone is dead .. HELP ME !

Try different charger eg connect micro usb on laptop and leave it charge. From time to time it's good you leave battery to "sinchronize" and leave it charging for 7-8 hours.
Maybe it's rom dependent to. Check which apps are running in background, close unneeded, disable wifi, BT and so on. Which ROM do you use?
If you have root access then try greenify. First see what exactly is consuming you battery unnecessarily and then greenify those apps.
You can also try one power guard. It actually saves battery in my opinion.

Then you can try snapdragon batteryguru. I used to use this app before I rooted my one s. I don't think it has much effect but no harm in trying. It basically reduces the app refresh time based on your usage so that much battery is saved. It will learn your usage habits for 2 days.
You may also consider rooting your device.

What do you think about this maximus hd rom ??
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
I suggest switching to an AOSP ROM, preferably CyanogenMod 11 since it's pretty stable. I was extremely unimpressed with the battery life on the stock ROM and decided to try a custom ROM. I'd never go back now. The battery life alone has proved to me that AOSP is better than Sense. Sense is bloated.
If you didn't try yet then try to empty the battery 3 times fully and always full recharge (make sure that the phone dies by itself).
For it was happening that the the battery was emptying down to few percent very fast (e.g. normal use 16hours) but when it was at 1 percent I could watch YouTube for 20min before the phone died.

It lasts me through a day with about 30% remaining after 9 hours of moderate usage. Not terrible but not great either, but the battery life just isn't very good in general on this phone.
Standby battery life is excellent though.

My tip that you need are to buy a new battery. I had almost 2 years old battery and the phone died after just 8 hours with minimal usage! So I decided to change the battery, now i've a 2100 mah. The phone is alive after 1,5 day with minimal usage!

also you can try BetterBatteryStats and you can see which app is draining your battery.
Catch it before it runs away from home!!
Just a joke. On a serious note..consider replacing battery
install an app called Wakelock Detector.
it's possible that you have an app installed that keeps waking up the device when not in use.
Wakelock Detector will tell you what app is doing that.

I am also getting the issue. I'm on 6-7, 24.3.7, rooted, and if I use it intensely it will go down to 14% before 3:30 PM. I'm surprised, as the issue never happened when I got the phone new.
If your screen is 42%, you're just using it a lot. The Mini has a small battery. Maybe you can try setting brightness down, but it looks like this is drain because you use it rather than a runaway app or process.
That said, Google Play services and Google services have been running high on my usage list lately. There's not much you can do about that, except maybe turn off background sync, which sort of negates the reason I bought a smartphone in the first place.
