[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] grattemedi:
Hi everyone!

After playing a few days with my new Galaxy Nexus, I was quite disappointed with the battery life of my device. It hardly survives a day.

I did a test today, trying to use the device more "intensively" by surfing quite a lot. The screen backlight was on automatic, bluetooth off, sync on, wifi on (although on 2G/3G most of the time this morning), nfc on, gps off.

The battery only lasted 5h30mn :( with the screen on for approximately 4h30mn.

I've attached 2 screenshots with the stats of the battery.

On a more normal daily use, I use the phone 1h30mn in the morning, check my emails in the day (approx. 30mn) and after work my battery dies after using it for another hour ... And that's when I don't have calls.

How is your galaxy nexus's battery life? Does mine looks normal or should I think about getting my battery replaced?

Cheers,

Laurent
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tumpin:
Having the screen on for 4.5hours is pretty good imo, especially considering the size of it. Ive only had mine a few days so hard to tell but I think its matching up to similar battery life as my old Galaxy S..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
4.5 hours of screen time is really good. My Desire usually makes me pay attention to charger after 3 hours, certainly after 4 hours. A high definition screen and more processing power Nexus surviving longer than that will mean the upgrade will be easy for me.

I am sorry that the OP is disappointed, but I for one hand predicted even less battery life. This is how battery life is these days with high end phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
4.5 hrs of screen on time and you're dissatisfied? I'd say that's fairly good battery life for a phone not from the future.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Martinp1986:
4.5 hours of screen time is very good. I am getting about 3.5 hours on a normal day atm not tried what you have done yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlackDino:
Jesus, how did you manage to have the screen on that long lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jss42:
Very similar here.

1h in the morning on my commute. Probably another hour during the day, and then again on my way back.

As long as it makes it home to a charger, fine for me.

Although I have just ordered a 5000mAh external USB battery pack for when I'm travelling :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
Aye, like others are saying, 4.5 hours of screen time is pretty good. The iPhone 4 only gets around the same.

Then again, with intensive browsing and internet usage that's actually *exceptional*. The iPhone couldn't do it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rikbrown:
Which one did you order?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gambiting:
I'm using this one and I am very satisfied!

http://www.amazon.co.uk/TeckNet-Dua...kberry/dp/B000NDQ92W/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pewpewbangbang:
iPhone 4 easily gets over 4 hour screen time. I got 2 hrs of screen time with 80% battery left.

We should compare to the galaxy s II which was supposedly very good for android
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericshmerick:
So you're upset that under an absolute stress test, you got ONLY 4.5 hrs?

That's pretty impressive. If not, return the GNEX and get, well, some other phone that will go 24 hrs under a full screen-on load test. Good luck.

Or just wait on generic batteries to hit eBay and buy three for $15 and be done with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jss42:
Good news, that's what I ordered :)

Can you confirm it can be charged and the same time it charges a device. I.e a single USB mains adaptor would do me if both need charging.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] schriss:
I prefer something like this, because there is no cables at all. IMHO its best to always have one like that in your bag. It has two charging ports, mini and micro usb.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] FatherD:
Pretty poor .. but no worse than most Android devices I have owned, I use them intensely: calls, wifi, GPS, wifi analyse, Fing, email, calendar, internet .... so I am never surprised! Just about lasts long enough to hit a charger in the late afternoon, in the car or back at base.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bourne-nolonger:
This is actually pretty cool little thing. It works well for those of you who already have it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
Yeah and it works with everything that has USB charging. It is no different from when you plug your device into a laptop that also runs on battery, etc. It is always great to have for traveling purposes, the only problem is that this item too has 'charge stress', aka you'll end up wanting to keep it charged 'just in case' but rarely using it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] grattemedi:
Thanks all for your replies!

Of course I wouldn't use my phone with the screen on for those 4h30 a day. But it would have been good if the battery could handle 2-3h of web surfing, a day of standby with a call or 2. Unfortunately it often doesn't last this long on these conditions.

Apart from that the galaxy is a great phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] damstac:
I'm not surprised with the calculator size screen lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThunderStick:
Wow this post actually makes me want to trade in my thunderbolt asap. I can't touch 4 hours with it, with auto brightness off and set low.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pewpewbangbang:
ha....its a thunderbolt, wat did you expect?? thing dies in minutes esp with LTE
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stickjohnonaah:
I'm coming from a droid x and the battery is as I expected. Its a dual 1.2ghz 4.65" screen and using 4g lte I get 13-14 hours with phone at idle and 4-5 with heavy usage. Am now rooted permanent and have changed processor to slower on 2nd processor to see what happens with battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wilkinator87:
I had a thunderbolt rooted with a bamf GB rom on it and I would easily get 12 hours out of it with moderate usage.. I dont know how you guys are only getting 4-6 hours out of the tbolt, yeah stock the battery didnt last as long as you would expect, but with a nice clean rom and some profiles in setcpu you could easily make the battery last all day without sacraficing speed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stickjohnonaah:
After roms are available for the GN and more options available to tweak battery life should improve a lot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Atreus:
Has anyone of you considered or is anybody already using an external battery pack such as the Anker Astro (no ad intended)?

If so, how is it working for you? I suppose the battery is kind of heavy and not very handy, is that true?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stickjohnonaah:
I would never get an external but would get extended
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pewpewbangbang:
The best extended battery is the genuine Samsung 2000mah one for the Galaxy S II......it uses that gap of space to its advantage marvelously

Can snap a picture of your phone i'd be interested to see it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] schriss:
I'm pretty happy with my battery. It's my first day of using the phone so you can imagine it's quite often that I turn the screen on, check emails. All of this with music playing almost all the time (which used to kill my SGS2 battery pretty quickly) and with WiFi on (but set to go of when screen if off).

With all that, I have 39% left now at 4PM after 9h on battery.

Does the SGS2 2000 battery really fit GN?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
We dont know yet. It might but then there is the issue of finding a battery cover.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cactaceae:
Same interest here. I just checked Amazon review for this external battery, just found it is not "not handy" as you said, but"compact" "portable" and etc.

Has anyone bought this and is willing to share you experience?:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evgeny9:
Hey, everyone!

I'm also disappointed with my Galaxy Nexus battery. It lasted for about a day when the use was moderate (Wi-Fi on, practically all other additional services off), but approximately after the 4.1-update, "Google Services" and "Browser" started to "eat" the half of my battery. So now I have to charge it 2 times a day!

Please, see the attached images.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] movielover76:
4.5 hours

I've yet to kill my battery with medium to heavy usage, 4.5 hours of screen time is good imho.

Of course I'm a recent convert from Verizon LTE, with a thunderbolt and a rezound, so in order to get a full day out of the phone I had to limit my screen time to 2 1/2 hours max, less if I used it for other background tasks, streaming audio, phone calls etc.

So far I'm thrilled with my nexus battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kaluoshi:
use less brightness and disable wifi when you not use it.

Remove browser and install chrome :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 309041291a:
Haha looks like the Nexus S is kicking the Gnex's arse in battery! Normally I get about 5 hours in a long use, sometimes I pull this screen time......

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sLiKK:
I used almost 1gb of data on the last day of my billing cycle making me exceed 5gb data usage for the whole billing cycle. Today is the first day of my billing cycle and my data speeds are still slowed…I also got a text message from tmobile that my data speeds will be slowed for the remainder of the cycle because I have exceeded the 5gb limit. This is ridiculous because new billing cycle has started and my data speed is still slow. Can they slow the data speed for new billing cycle based on the data usage for previous billing cycle?

Any one have any advise what should I do? I would call tmobile but they are closed today for thanksgiving.

Hope you're having a great thanksgiving.

P.S. I wouldnt mind applying a workaround to get back my data speed but I think I shouldnt have slow data speed in a new billing cycle.

Hi everyone!

I'm a new sgs user.. sry for my bad english, I'm just learning it :D

I've just wanted to try darky's rom and it was very difficult to do from CM7 nightly.. but I'm here and my accelerometer problem is solved...

Use it on your own risk!

So here we go!

[GUIDE]

First at all download these files:

ODIN:

ODIN 1.82

The latest original firmware:

samfirmware.com I9000

At the moment I used this: I9000XXJVS.rar

A flashable kernel that supports CWM for example: Semaphore 1.9.0

The CM7 or MIUI installer zip that you're already using!

that's it:D

What to do?

1. Now put your CM7/MIUI installer Zip on your SD.

2. Power off your SGS

3. Use the 3-Button Combination(Volume up+Home+power button) to recovery mode..

4. Go on backup and restore and do a nandroid backup!

5. Power off your phone

6. Unpack I9000XXJVS.rar

7. Start ODIN and select the files like this

8. Go your phone to download mode(volume down+home+power button), connect to USB and click on flash button. Installing(1-2 minutes)

9. After that your phone will reboots and boots the orginal SGS Gingerbread.

10. Skip all what you can, go to the settings, display, take yout phone flat and do a horizontal calibration.

11. Power off your phone.

12. choose semaphore kernel to PDA like this (without Re-Partition!!)

13. go your phone to download mode and flash the kernel!

14. Phone will reboots, but not now!:D take out the battery and go to recovery mode.

15. choose install zip from sd card and select your CM7/MIUI install zip

YOUR PHONE WILL REBOOTS LIKE CRAZY but don't be afraid take out your battery and go to recovery. Try now to install the zip: "install zip from sd card and select your CM7/MIUI install zip"

*INSTALLED*

16. Go back and go to backup and restore. Restore your phone (5-10 minutes for me)

17. Reboot your phone

18. ENJOY!!

I hope it can be help. That's my first thread, sorry if i wrong.

gsbence :)

[LG Optimus 3D] NOMIOMI:
what is meant by dual channel and dual memory ???

please some one can explain it........

thanks
[LG Optimus 3D] exceleth:
http://www.lg.com/uk/mobile-phones/all-lg-phones/LG-android-mobile-phone-P920.jsp

You can watch the video about the Tri Dual tech here. Video tells everything in a perfect way.
[LG Optimus 3D] NOMIOMI:
if some app or game which required the 1GB Ram will run on Lg optimus 3D???
[LG Optimus 3D] DASM:
NO ! 512 MB means 2*256 MB
[LG Optimus 3D] exceleth:
Optimus 3D will become history when apps would require such RAM IMHO. Probably would take a couple of years.
[LG Optimus 3D] RubenGM:
Dual channel means that in a single instant, two memory operations (read or write) can be executed. This means that RAM is twice as fast... in theory, at least.

You can probably test that with your own PC: Connect a single module of RAM and check the speed reported by your BIOS (800Mhz, 1000Mhz...) and then try plugging in another module and that speed will double (to 1600Mhz, 2000Mhz...).

"Dual memory" means that there are 2 RAM modules present, which is a requirement for dual channel and makes me believe that nothing of this is more than just buzzwords randomly added to make a joke/pun with the dual core CPU and 3D screen/camera.
[LG Optimus 3D] NOMIOMI:
so now i sell my brand new lg optimus 3d and i will buy today evo 3d
[LG Optimus 3D] exceleth:
You would probably regret that bro. If you are looking for 3D capabilities, O3D is the phone for you. If you dont give a penny to 3D capabilities, there are much better alternatives than EVO3D out there.

I would suggest Galaxy Nexus or Galaxy Note if you are into big screens.

It is all about expectations afterall.
[LG Optimus 3D] NOMIOMI:
if the games and application which required 1GB ram comes out soon then ??????

i love O3D it is gr8 phone i love 3D but the 512Ram ........................i want 1GB ram on the phone with 3D

and one thing is O3D can view every 3D movies like Resident Evil 3D????

if yes then would guide that how?
[LG Optimus 3D] exceleth:
Believe me, that wont be soon. I would give it at least two years from now. And probably we all will replace our phones with something that has at least 4GB of ram until then. Our mobile phones will replace our PC's, we will only need keyboad/mouse/screen docks to plug our devices and use anywhere we want. Carry your work laptop in your pocket ;)

And your memory can process twice faster, this means there is no need for the jobs to wait in line. 512 MB Dual channel ram theoretically can do everything that a 1 GB mono channel ram does. And it provides faster speeds.
[LG Optimus 3D] DrGomez:
As a Gamer I have to highly disagree with you on that :P

A Smartphone will NEVER reach capacities a regular desktop PC can reach.
[LG Optimus 3D] NOMIOMI:
are u sure that 1GB ram required app and game will come out after 1 or 2 years?
[LG Optimus 3D] exceleth:
Then we agree to disagree ;)

I am pretty sure, mobile computing technology will reach very high limits so there wont be any need for desktop PC's. Max 5 years I would say, but inevidable even later.

Probably in the times of Alexander Graham Bell, people would never imagine current telecommunication systems ;)

---------- Post added at 04:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:56 PM ----------

No, I am not, but it seems we wont need any more rams in a couple of years for our beloved O3d's. This is my humble opinion of course. But I would never go for an Evo 3D, its 3D is total crap.
[LG Optimus 3D] jimakos29:
And 20 years ago no one thought amiga would ever be surpassed by pcs or even closer just a few years ago no one thought laptops would ever catch up to desktops but hey... look at us now...
[LG Optimus 3D] TheOnly1:
Nobody will make such an app as long as the mass market phones are with less than 2 GB of RAM :)

Actually even the most heavyweight games of today use no more than 150 MB RAM.

To be honest the amount of RAM under Linux (Android) has only one real use in everyday life and that's how many apps you can have open at the same time before the system begins autokilling them.

With that in mind I can surery say that the O3D has more than enough RAM to make it at least through 2012. And as we all know the world will come to an end afterwards :)))
[LG Optimus 3D] smackdownn:
I think there already is a game which requires more than 512mb, "plants vs zombies"

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iFalcon:
The development activity on this forum is great. However, I've been checking out the i9100 forum and just 'wow' at all the activity occurring with the international version.

Would it be crazy to sale the AT&T one and pick up the International version? It's probably a noob question, but I don't really understanding if the ROM changes for AT&T are strictly tied to this forum or if some from the i9100 forum can be used.

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1204

Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cheetablaze:
I believe people get the AT&T version because they cannot cough up a ton of money for the international device. If you have that much money laying around and you ike the look of it, go ahead and buy it. However we do have design gears and a few others working with our AT&T device as well. It's a shame Samsung just doesn't make that phone available for all carriers. Then everybody can have an awesome phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SoCaliTrojan:
You can't flash a ROM for the i9100 directly into the at&t version; you will run into problems such as the soft keys no longer working. Some devs are using i9100 rom files in their roms, though, such as Cognition 777.

You also might have to jump through some hoopla to get hspa+ working properly. People who got the international version before the at&t version came out had to do some tricks, such as giving at&t the imei number of a current 4g phone, so their phones would be identified as capable of 4g speeds.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
Hellraiser makes it possible to flash any i9100 ROM on the i777 without issue. That package is flashed after the i9100 ROM and fixes the soft keys and other issues.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gr8hairy1:
Makes it hard to fully explain to someone why android and not apple.

I didn't convince a friend to jump to android from iPhone, the phone did. I was getting ready to show him a feature and ended up running out of time on his lunchbreak. He said later just the little he had seen navigating the phone was more than he'd been able to do on his iPhone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PeartFan40:
Not true at all. I'm currently running Criskelo v30 on my i777 and it works flawlessly. You can flash just about any GT9100 ROM on the AT&T version. All you need to do is run HellRaiser and HapticFix and you're good to go.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PeartFan40:
You can flash a GT9100 ROM on your AT&T SGS2 without problem. All you need to do is download HellRaiser Mod and HapticFix, place it on your SDcard and flash them AFTER you flash a GT9100 ROM. DO NOT REBOOT PHONE UNTIL YOU HAVE FLASHED HELLRAISER AND HAPTICFIX!!

Enjoy! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Alucardis666:
I'd stick with the AT&T version.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jjesusfreak01:
I'd keep the ATT version too. It is almost exactly the same as the international version, with the specific exceptions of the key layout, NFC chip in the ATT model, and a slightly lamer charging circuit in the ATT model, as well as missing FM. Its really just a tradeoff of "do you want FM or NFC?". Development is going strong for the ATT SGS2, and honestly, we have a larger choice of ROMs than the international owners, because we can flash Attain ROMs or i9100 ROMs (with Hellraiser).
