Dear all,

This is my battery usage after my first charge when I just got it. Mostly used it for downloading apps and games, surfing the net, and just basically setting up the N7. I'm quite impressed with the battery life so far as I usually use it after work for now.

[Nexus 7 General] frescagod:
i do not have a screenshot, but i have hit 9 hours of screen on time with a single charge, half browsing, half watching videos, no netflix. the caveat is that almost all 9 hours were at night, meaning auto-brightness kept the screen's brightness way down compared to if the tablet was used during the day. if i use it exclusively during the day, i only hit about 6 to 6.5 hours of screen on time.

These are mine, charged last night, about 20 minutes of gaming, stock ROM, Apex Launcher.
[Nexus 7 General] 1iam5mith:
I seem to only be getting 3hours with screen on :( stock ROM, Google now off, WiFi off when going out, brightness on auto :( I don't understand why I am now getting such poor battery, only using chrome and avforums and email
[Nexus 7 General] DN41:
So why not posting a battery usage screen?

What's draining your battery the most? Maybe an app that keeps it active all the time.

[Nexus 7 General] Duvuk:
OK guys

Here's my latest results

WiFi has been constantly on, chrome use, kindle app mainly and then usual facebook, twitter email.

Haven't taken it out yet, got my case last night, so next week at work it'll be with me all the time, and we'll see if that makes a different.

Did you leave WiFi on all then time? What battery saving techniques were used ?
[Nexus 7 General] anilpalepu:
Yup WiFi on all the time.. brightness at 15%.. no other tweaks.. AOKP & GLaDOS...din't play much of games, maybe for 15 mins.. was browsing and xda and reading mostly..
[Nexus 7 General] ram130:
Awesome. Seem your battery life have improved greatly. I can't seem to pass 5hr screen on time yet. I'm sure its the varying brightness level I move through during the day. Also android wakes a lot during stand by for me. So Android OS is the second item in the list. Don't know why.

You should click the graph and take a picture of it so I can see how your sleep time compared to mine.
[Nexus 7 General] oaba09:
I think Ican make this last up to 24 hours
[Nexus 7 General] yalouf:
I usually get 6h30-7h screen time and 2 days uptime average when doing mix usage with games/movies/Web/youtube/ebooks

When i just read ebooks, and do web browsing and like 1h video, it can go up to 10 hours screen time usage.

the slight bump with battery is just the battery calibrating itself, no charge.

Idling consume nothing at ALL.

My settings :

Mostly airplane mode with WIFI on when i'm at home, no need for GPS or so.

No googleNow, btw it doesn't work so well in France.

Wifi set to sleep after 5min.

Auto brightness, but i think it stays around 15% most of the time.

Weather apps, Greader and twitter updating manually.

No facebook app of course, i've never seen so low powermanagerservice wakelocks with BBS.

This tablet is a blast, way above the ipad3 of my brother and my old GTab 7...
[Nexus 7 General] ram130:
Dude that's even more awesome!! Does airplane mode really make that much of a difference? Can you test without it? And what happens if you dont make the WiFi sleep during stand by? Does that drastically affect your stand by time ?

Sorry for all the questions I'm trying to narrow down where I'm getting most drain. Lost 4% over night with my N7 just in stand by :(

[Nexus 7 General] frescagod:
flashed motley kernel, and here was my first 100% to 5%...

mixed use...a couple netflix movies, 3 hours of music, moderate web browsing, some Youtube...8.5 hours down to 5% battery. i flashed Motley build 220, i believe, and left it OC'd at 1.5Ghz, with auto-brightness also enabled. pretty awesome.

---------- Post added at 07:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:32 PM ----------

i'm also running stock + motley #220, but my battery life is way better than yours. a big thing is disabling a lot of auto-syncing. for instance, if you use a Gmail account, it will, by default, sync like 12 things (google plus, google pictures, google music, google everything) but really, you can uncheck a lot of them and just sync contacts, email, and maybe calendar if you use it.

also, if you use a lot of apps, chances are that a few of them are polling quite often. reduce the frequency of syncing/updating.

two other things i would do would be to either turn off wifi (use a widget so it's easy to toggle on/off) or change the setting to have the tablet turn off wifi when the screen is off, and i would also set up a profile with SetCPU to keep the processor between 100 and 200Mhz while the screen is off.
[Nexus 7 General] TeamAlpha:
Well going down 8% after watching 47 mins of HD video suggest it'd take 9 hours 47 mins of HD video before you'd run out of battery. Which seems exactly in line with the specs.
[Nexus 7 General] hendonz:
7h 10m battery time

I'm only getting about 6:30min of on screen time with basic web browsing and youtube videos, I have the screen set to min and no gps or background processing.

Just did a test last night playing a looped h.264 video with no audio, 25%brightness and wifi on. It was only able to work for 7h 10 min...

I might give Asus a call to see whats up because its not close to the 9.5h they state in there specs.

Anyone else not getting to the 9.5h?
[Nexus 7 General] Reazy64:
My screen, stock rom.
[Nexus 7 General] frescagod:
that's kind of like someone driving a car 70 miles and getting 35 MPG, and just assuming the car will go another 525 miles on 35 MPG the rest of the tank.

i think the 47 min HD guy/gal should just loop video if they want a true, real world indication and not a prediction or projection.
[Nexus 7 General] Raisone:
2nd Charge

This are in my second charge.

Mostly used for playing some games, watching Death Note in the train and google reader.

I hitted almost 3 days with 5h screen time, not so bad i think, wifi on only when i needed it (off while playing or video playing)

So i guess that i should be getting better results in the next charge, will see.

Everything stock, no root (yet XD)

Do you guys think that use the flight mode make sense in this tablet? i mean, it doesn´t have 3G connection, so... the flight mode disable... what?
[Nexus 7 General] ram130:
Disabling some auto sync options like Google + and Instant Upload(which was already disable in the app but for some reason Android still syncs it) helped my battery life in sleep mode..I have less wake times now and I also disabled Google Maps "Report location from this device". This lower Maps wake times as well.. Just not sure how it affects Google Now yet..

Im getting terrible battery life compared to everyone here. My Nexus 7 is completely stock. Im thinking of exchanging it for a new one.
[Nexus 7 General] beardedspoooon:
I'm sure I could have gotten another 12 hours of standby with another hour or two of screen on time.

edit:

If you're getting 6 hours of screen on time, you should be fine. I usually get around that combined with however many hours of standby time. If you really want to double check, just play a video or something over and over again and see how it does. As long as you get 7 or 8 hours, there's probably nothing wrong with it.

Ok i keep seeing this thread and the battery settings post.. I do have to admit i have not read most post in here.. My Confusion comes from the following

1. NOT every tablet has the same apps and configuration

2. NOT every tablet has the same display light settings

3. NOT every tablet is being used in the same light conditions (auto backlight senor being used )

4. Not every table has the same widgets running Data being pushed or pulled in the background and so on ..

5. Ok im NOT Going to start by saying not im sure the above is enough .

with the above there is also the fact how much battery usage compared to cpu cycles used and backlight condition and data used. This would be the only true measure of if the Nexus tablet is getting equal battery across the board.

Further more there would have be a data base of sort to find the average amount of use by say a group of 100 users . Something for everyone to compare to .. based on the first sentence of this paragraph .

So unless im totally misunderstanding the reason behind the screen shots of the battery usage stats . This is nothing more then random images at different stages of battery usage. Nothing Scientific or usable data..

If im wrong then please explain to me. as I WATCH The battery status of my device and from day to day its all over the spectrum of how much battery i use Depending on what im doing that day. if i use google maps tethered to my phones 3g. My battery life that day will much less then a day im on the couch watching movies .

Thanks for hearing my opinion.. If you wish i will post my battery usage but it would only be conclusive with log files of what my device done all day. ..

THANKS EVERYONE great battery status pics . thou the app could use some customization...

Does the Nexus 7 have Haptic Feedback (vibration motor)?
[Nexus 7 General] dragongc:
Doesn't seem like it. Turning the volume down goes straight to silent mode.
[Nexus 7 General] thephased:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but adjusting the volume to presumably a vibrate mode is different than haptic feedback settings on the keyboard/on screen soft keys.

I'm not running a CM9 rom on my phone at the moment, but I think the haptic feedback settings for the soft keys are in settings/sound and for the keyboard it should be in settings/language and input under settings for android keyboard.

Not sure if Jelly Bean is the same.
[Nexus 7 General] clintkev251:
I could definitely see google deciding to remove the vibrate option from the os (because really, whats the point in a tablet) but i would assume that it has haptic
[Nexus 7 General] pnnorth:
It doesn't have a vibration motor - I don't think there are many tablets that do.
[Nexus 7 General] seff5677:
Asus tablets do, i know i tried it at bestbuy i enabled haptic feedback on the transformer prime

First off, sorry if this is in the wrong section, didnt quite feel like it belonged in the development forum.

Now to the problem. I downloaded a root thing for gsm. Read the instructions and went oops thats for gsm. I cant post links because I am a new member but if you search for thread "ICS 4.0.4 upgrade guide - "not so permanent now"" on here you will find the page/instructions/link. Went on searching. However having way too many windows open on my little laptop screen with a touch pad thats too sensitive i accidentally somehow clicked on something in that folder because I am an idiot and left the window open. Lesson learned...close/delete **** that doesnt apply to my phone. I think i clicked either Rootexplorer.apk or whatever was on top or below (fastboot or step 1 - flash 403) it since that is where my mouse was approx when something popped up and my phone did something (lesson 2, dont leave phone plugged in to computer)

I have been searching furiously and have all but given up and am ready to go out and buy a new phone tomorrow...ouch...

I am hoping that somebody here might know of something. My phone was freshly updated to 4.04 before it happened. Please try to keep the flaming to a minimum but understandably i deserve some of it but im feeling pretty miserable as it is already. Thanks in advance for any help you guys may provide.

I'm no expert, but I would think of you can still get into fastboot you can saved your phone. I'm droidrzr.com there's plenty of people that use fastboot to go from one ics leak to another.

Google "matts razr utility 1.7"

Download and run.

Make sure your phone is connected to your PC and in ap fastboot mode,

Select option 1

Follow directions from there.

also, make sure you have .211.xt912.en.us on the root of your EXTERNAL SD card before you start the utility.

This should at least get you on the stock cdma ics.

EDIT:

Download

Verizon, 6.16.211.en.US

Unzip the file, copy the 2 files to Root of your EXTERNAL SDCARD

Follow this: droidforums.net/forum/droid-razr/213197-offical-ota-zip-installation-guide-droid-razr-razr-maxx.html

Copied from there:

1. Download the official OTA "Blur_Version.6.12.181.XT912.Verizon.en.US.zip " file from above.

2. Place the file downloaded in step one into the ROOT of your EXTERNAL SD card. (DO NOT UNZIP THE FILE)

3. Turn off phone.

4. Go into recovery by pressing and holding the Volume Up (+), Volume Down (-), and Power button all three at the same time. (Press and hold all physical buttons.)

5. The menu will come up and select "Recovery".(Volume Down key to go down and Volume Up key to SELECT/ENTER Recovery.)

*The Android and Exclamation mark logos will come up*

6. Press both Volume Up (+) and the Volume Down (-) buttons at the same time. Release.

7. With the Volume Down (-) button go down to "Wipe CACHE partition" and press the Power button to select it. DO THIS TWICE (Don't worry your data will not get erased by wiping the cache.) (Thanks smmfc)

8. With the Volume Down (-) button go down to "Apply Update from SDCard" and press the Power button to select it.

9. Volume Down (-) go to the “Blur_Version.6.12.173.XT912.Verizon.en.US.zi p” and select it with the Power button. (This is the one we put in the External SD in Step 2.)

10. It will take a while to upgrade, mine isn't even done yet and I started it when I started to write Step 1

11. Once it is done, go to "Reboot system now."

12. Official ICS, Enjoy!!! =D

Once it's your first time starting ICS, it WILL take a while to load up, it is normal, it will also be "Optimizing applications" at first start up.

-----------------------------------------

Just extract the blur version zip and place it on the root of external SD, then run utility

All of this can be done from your PC if you have a card reader.

Don't thank me, thank matt for his awesome utility if it works.

Okay so I didn't really think I would have this problem with this phone. I put a mkv video on my phone and I went to go watch it but it stutters I'm not sure how to explain it but it's really choppy. It doesn't complete freeze though. I was using this in the stock video player. This was because I wanted to try pop up play. So I was bummed that I couldn't use the stock player which is the only one that does pop up play. So I tried mx player but it also has the same problem playing back the video. Wth can the s3 not handle mkv videos? I didn't have this problem on my note. Does anybody else have this also? Is there a fix or something? The screen is beautiful but it's not smooth playback its too choppy.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Diviance:
Need more information. MKV is a container codec, not a video or audio codec. What is the video and audio codec, and is it using something like 10bit color?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] nabbed:
I've seen that happen on Epic Touch with most mkv format videos.

Try RockPlayer.
