Nexus 4 Users: Battery Life?

Hey other nexus 4 users. I can't be the only one experiencing poor battery life on my new nexus can I? I am using juice defender on default settings but I still run out of battery within 6 hours of being off the charger. I use an external battery for that extra power but it is a bother. Anyone else having similar issues?

Sorry my battery stats. I'm coming from the razr hd and I know the razr has 2500, but this seems to drop like crazy

How much screen time is the key, even on WiFi. Screen kills this battery. Appears like you have a LOT of on time.

What's your point? Most phones last way shorter than that. Be lucky that it lasted that long! Unless you have a maxx or somethine, this is really good battery life.

If you're not satisfied with the battery life order an extended battery, I just got my Anker 4400mah battery today and so far I'm loving it! The extra bulk actually makes it easier to hold and use the phone.

You charged your phone a bunch of times.

I had a maxx so maybe I'm used to that. My last phone was a razr hd. Here is right now with 18 min.screen time. While sending this it has dropped to 68. If this is normal let me know. I may have to go back to razr hd. I'm on stock but thinking about cyanogen.

What's your screen brightness level? You can't have it at 60-100% plus all the crap I see is running and expect out of this world battery life. A ROM change isn't going to help you there.
EDIT: Look at your awake time compared to your screen on time, whatever all those apps you have running are, they're eating up your battery, check mine out below. You really need to stop a lot of that stuff from running all the time, your battery life will increase exponentially.

Something is draining your battery, like mentioned maybe rogue app, like wolf put it best.try rescan media, it'll help.I have a 2200mah anker battery.vs stock.I run plenty of apps no power saver options on.
Also no I don't do bump charging, this is off one straight charge

All that red in your signal line really kills the battery too. The phone is constantly pinging looking for a signal that but can't find. At least is my non-technical understanding.
A new radio may help. Or putting the phone in airplane mode when you are in a bad area

Why did you charge so many times? Running the battery down most of the way then fully charging tends to keep your batteries stronger longer.

It makes it a little heavier and bulkier, but I like it better that way. It's amazing all around in my opinion. No quirks or anything other than its hard to kill

Has the price for this battery been going up? I am trying to decide if I should jump on this or wait a little.

Has anyone used the zerolemon 2300mah battery? I wonder if it is worth the $20 on amazon right now. Currently on my stock battery I get around 2 hours of screen time before I'm at 20%. Really would like to get more than that while keeping the stock battery form factor.

Pretty impressive.
Where yall toggling data or anything?

I just got the set of 2300mah batteries. The shipping was super fast and they were well packaged. They come with a wall charger that also has USB power outlet. I forgot to check the specs on the charger before I left.
I'm charging one of them up right now and I'll get the 2nd going after work today. The directions state the need to initially charge it for at least 12 hours. That seems a bit excessive. Zerolemon also says that you'll need to do 5 charge/discharge cycles before optimum performance.
The only odd thing I noticed is that they recommended discharging fully every time. Everything I've read states that you shouldn't do that with Lithium-Ion.

Post your home screens, battery life shots etc. Only thread for this stuff!

Here is the place for all those home screenshots, speed and battery stats etc...all others will be closed...this is it! Have fun, be respectful....

Am I alone in thinking this will be a dead thread ?

no deep sleep
My phone won't go into deep sleep. I've turner off wifi search even when wifi is off. Location(gps) is set to battery save mode, I'm not running any apps in therror background. Android System is using up 30% of my battery. Unfortunately I can't use better battery stats to see exactly what is not allowing my phone to go into deep sleep.?

Pretty satisfied. ☺

Yes. you are right. If anyone want to get great battery life then it must be needed for first full charge. When i bought my first battery then i did charge it first 8 hours..

I normally wouldn't worry too much about my phone's background, but i got a white S view case and had to make this background for it.

Man is this a survey or something.
I've had this one about 6 months. I had my first one for over a year (had a microphone issue and had it replaced) and had about the same battery life. Compared to my old phone that only lasted 10 hours with less than 2 hour screen time, I am happy.
