[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I can get through the day but I flash alot of test stuff and am constantly rebooting ....so I grabbed some extra oems off ebay for cheap...Love my Nexus phones! Would not trade em for anything!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DerAmi:
Yeah install a custom recovery and boot into it. From there you can erase battery stats.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ufmace:
Mine was too, at first; I had to turn off most of the things in Google Now to get it back to normal. The estimated traffic times and sports score stuff isn't useful to me anyways.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MikeyMike01:
Those cheapo batteries end up being less mAh than the stock ones.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] UncleMike:
I have to agree. I had an OG Droid and Bionic, and we have a Droid X, X2 and LG Ally in the family. My GSM Gnex with the stock battery blows them all away in terms of battery life. I've only had my Gnex for 2-3 weeks, so I've spent a lot more time playing with it than I would with a phone I've had for a while, and it still blows the others away. I left for work yesterday with my battery at 50% and I wasn't even concerned. With previous phones, I would have had the phone charging for the entire trip to work.

I had spare batteries for my OG Droid and Bionic, and used them probably twice a week, and I still can't see myself buying a phone with a fixed battery. However, my GSM Gnex has amazing battery life compared to any phone I've had (or my family members have had) in the past 5 years. Some of the battery life reports in this thread are horrendous, and in those cases I don't think spare batteries are the answer.

In a lot of posts it's unclear whether the CDMA or GSM model is being discussed, but from posts where it's clear or can be inferred, it appears that the GSM model has much better battery life than the CDMA model. The other area of vagueness is that everyone's interpretation of heavy, moderate or mild use is different - sometimes extremely different.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ceejay83:
wiping battery stats is pointless and should only be done if you think your battery is off by alot

Ive been using Jelly Bean for 3 days now, and Im quite frustrated that battery life was better on ICS 4.0.4, get like half an hour less of screen time than before.

Any of you guys experiencing this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bgdxv:
I get these weird sudden drops of battery. Below 25 % it goes down to 0% in about 40 minutes of screen on time. When the battery is above 25%, it goes down by about 20% in one hour of screen on time. So the difference is big. Anyone else is having faster drain below 25% or is my battery broken?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ran495:
how are you guys getting 4 hours screen time? its almost impossible for me, despite my power saving efforts. Is it coz of the extended batt?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] isinisterx:
The max screen on time I got with my stock GSM battery is 3.5 hours.

4 hours seems normal for an extended battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ran495:
i only get around 2 and a half... ugh...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kaushikd:
So far I am getting an excellent battery after converting to stock JB. Only 2% battery drain in 6.5 hrs with data off.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
What's your settings? Etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MikeyMike01:
4 hours for an extended battery is pretty bad. If I were to get one I'd expect at least 5 hours, based on what I get with stock.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tarun95:
Same here never had any problem with that app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deekayy:
Obviously... anyone can potentially have a great battery like that if the data is off. This thread is catered to GSM users more than cdma. I get pretty bad battery life regardless of being on 3g or 4g. The drain is horrible even if I full 4g bars, I get about 1.5 hr of screen time and 12 hours max on stock battery on cdma.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tarun95:
On stock I get around 3 and half hours screen on time with 45 minutes gaming time in that approximately which is nice I guess. Now trying Franco kernel to see if it makes any difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
I suggest the Jame Bond kernel but what JB ROM are you long battery users using?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nosit1:
1 hour 50 minutes screen time.

I pay for unlimited data, so I use it all - no wifi for me!

This is amazing time for me for the tasks my phone does.

do all of you who have 4+ screen time have location settings off?

ever since i reflashed stock 4.1.1 and wiped my phone my batteries been absolutely horrible. with 6 hours on, 1 hour screen time im already at 65%. an im on 2000mah!

i turned off google now and latitude to see if it would help but no dice....:/

any advice?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] isinisterx:
I switched back to 4.0.4... didn't really like jelly bean and IMO there arent any good roms out atm
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leppo:
I'm getting 3.* hrs screen time, so I picked up a spare stock battery. I don't want to reduce my usage in order to increase battery life.

I don't usually have location on, but I almost always have data turned on, and listening to podcasts with BeyondPod.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bgdxv:
Yes, the location stuff in maps uses tons of battery
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maatae:
I have google location services in the main settings turned on, but location reporting in maps settings turned off. should I turn off both? does the turning off reporting not help much?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] isinisterx:
How can I prevent maps from keep opening ?if I freeze it in titanium can I will open it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] I Am Marino:
So?

I have unlimited too, why does that mean waste your battery when you know data will kill it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] UncleMike:
I mentioned an projected screen on time of 6 hours in my last post in this thread. I finally managed to run my battery down, keeping the phone active a lot at the end of the day to see where I really ended up with screen on time. I was pretty close - 5 hours 51 minutes, with mobile data on and Wifi off almost all day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crazyjimbo:
The battery life on my Nexus is pretty amazing. I bought two extra batteries and an external battery, but I've yet to use them. I came from an HTC Rezound to my GSM Galaxy Nexus and its like night and day. Not having an LTE chip make a huge difference
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yalouf:
Good battery life so far, gsm version 2000mah battery.

Mostly Wifi browsing indoors, and 10-15% luminosity

[Xoom Android Development] okantomi:
Problem is, it won't let me choose external, but that's not my biggest issue right now.

I can't restore from the backup I've just done (on internal), can't install anything from internal and still can't access external. I've tried many different approaches.

I can't reflash a recovery.img because I'm away from my PC so I'm stuck. I'm sure there's something I'm not getting about the file system this recovery sees...it doesn't see "storage" on the root directory. I can't access it that way.

But this is really a cool recovery, and has many great features.
[Xoom Android Development] runandhide05:
Look at op where the external and internal are mounted as. I'll look into it when I have a mome t
[Xoom Android Development] okantomi:
I think I may have resolved my issue of not being able to flash ROM and Gapps...I could do it from Goomanager in internal. If everything works, then I'll experiment some more.

Thanks for adding the locations to internal and external in the OP. It was not something I would have figured out on my own ;^)

No problem... FYI they were in op from the beginning... no anything I added.. helps to read.. lol I kid buddy.

Haha...thought I read it all.

Seriously, still can't seem to restore from my back-up...seems like it says complete and successful, but hasn't actually changed anything.

Thanks again...all of your work is very high quality and high value for us here on the Xoom.

Hi, I've been having issues with my Verizon LTE Xoom running the latest version of the Team EOS stingray ROM. 3G works fine, but I don't get 4G in areas where I know there is LTE coverage and I've gotten it before on this device. I've tried a few different older versions of the ROM that I know it worked on with no success and I'm not sure where to troubleshoot next.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nugalonious:
I unlocked the bootloader and flashed a custom recovery. I then rebooted the device. Now it is stuck at the bootloader (white Google logo on black background) and I can't get it to do anything else. I've rebooted it a bunch of times including with the vol + and vol - buttons held down to no avail. I've also let the battery run out and then tried to boot it up again and the same thing happens. adb nor fastboot see the device and it doesn't show up in the logs on my machine (Mint 13) as coming online at any time.

Most of the times I reboot it with the power switch it reboots to the Google logo even without me letting go of the power button. Sometimes I can get it to fully power off but I haven't figured out what combination of vol keys and reboot does that.

Anyone have any ideas what could be wrong? Any help would be much appreciated!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeoMagus:
You are not bricked if you can still get into the bootloader.

Download the factory image from here, and flash it with fastboot. If you don't know how to do that, read this thread.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nugalonious:
I wish I could get fastboot to see it then I could definitively flash that img.

I can't get into the bootloader and can't get fastboot or adb to see it. It's stuck at the Google logo now and when i hold the power key it reboots back to the Google logo with the unlock logo at the bottom.

Thanks for the help
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeoMagus:
You've tried holding volume down+power for 10+ seconds? That should power off the device, then hold both vol up+down down and power up

Ya I've tried to hold vol + and power for 10+ seconds and it reboots back to the Google logo even if I don't off the power key. Same happens with all the other combinations of keys being held with the power button. I can't get it to turn off now unless I let the battery die

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yeahthatsme:
I'm in the same spot. I can get it into recovery occasionally but once there it locks up after trying to flash or clear the cache.

I'm wondering if a contributing issue is CMR v6.0.0.6? I updated it from 6.0.0.4 that was running fine. But no fastboot or adb so that is doubtful.

This is frustrating and not a great start with this N7.

this worked. you have to be fast. as soon as screen goes black release power button then quickly, very quickly repress along with vol up and down.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jnehama:
I just wanted to report a similarly event. I have a rooted, unlocked Nexus 7, with TWRP recovery. I have previously rebooted without issue. Tonight I booted into bootloader mode to check something and the hit power button to choose start. I got stuck on the boot logo. After finding this thread, I started with the simplest combination and held power button until screen went dark, then added volume down and once again in bootloader. This time choosing start led to a regular system boot. It's as if the device froze and needed a hard reboot.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackbarn:
I was attempting to boot into recovery and kept getting the 'Google' logo (I am unlocked/rooted with twrp recovery). I wasn't aware that one had to be plugged in via usb in order to *not* hang....

Any way around this?

Once I plugged it in and attempted to boot into recovery it worked fine.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Demanufacturer:
I had a similar issue after using the Nexus Root Toolkit to flash to nakasi 4.2 with CWM recovery - just got stuck on the nexus boot screen, flashing in a loop for over 15 minutes.

I ended up powering down the device, holding power for about 5-10 seconds - then QUICKLY holding both the power and volume up+down keys, it then went into the fastboot screen.

After it was there, plugged it into my PC.

Now, this should work for you - assuming you have all the fastboot/usb driver stuff installed.

I extracted the contents of nakasi-jop40c-factory-6aabb391.tgz into the same directory as the fastboot.exe provided by WugFresh with his Nexus Root Toolkit (google search or xda search for this if you dont have it, i dont think i can post links due to my low postcount) - typical filepath: C:\Program Files (x86)\WugFresh Development\data

By the files in there, I mean drilling down inside the tgz to where the image files were inside so that files like bootloader-grouper-4.13.img, image-nakasi-jop40c.zip etc were extracted into the directory and sitting alongside the fastboot.exe - NOT in a subfolder.

Once its all here, running flash-all.bat (this is provided by google in the nakasi-jop40c-factory-6aabb391.tgz) from the command line or by double clicking on it from explorer should kick off the process. After about 2-3 minutes, it was complete, and my Nexus then booted up within about 3 minutes after that.

Also worth noting, device remained unlocked, but I lost root/root binary

I dunno what 10 is like but 7 was my first time using touch. It was fine. Sure the backup wasn't the fastest, but I had no appreciable difference in backup time as with v5. Although, I am one to "set it and forget it" and not watch the entire backup happen so much in real time:)

As for recovery, worked like a charm no glitches, no fouls. So far I am liking the 6.0.0.7 touch.
