hi,

just a quick question. i charged my note 2 fully before i went to sleep. after 7 hours it went from 99 to 95. is that normal/good? as of this moment, i'm currently at 52% with 2h51m screen time. is that normal/good as well?

Thanks very much.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] psycho4us4:
Everything you mention is normal and good. 5 to 6 hours screen time is good.

Happy camper

Got 36 hours, with 5.5 hours on-screen time. Drained it down to 3%, activated power saver mode, and then continued on drawing. Took me through 2 full days of being on.

I made calls, drew, checked Gmail, G+, Twitter, texted my wife all day long, listened to Spotify, and watched some youtube videos.

With my S2, I'd not last me an entire work day, if I used it at all.

I apologize for lack of screenshots. When it got to 1% I turned it off and put it to charge, and forgot to take pic. If that's on a stock rom with CIQ and who knows what else...can't imagine what we're in for :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] iamstuffed:
If you don't get good cell reception, it's better to turn Wi-Fi on and use Wi-Fi calling if you are on T-Mobile. Low or non existent reception drains the battery like crazy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] guthrien:
My wifi calling settings were set to go on when I lost signal, it popped on briefly last night during the windstorm here. Thought it was pretty cool how seamless it was. If only TMobile's data signal would penetrate my house.

Great battery life. Gets me through the day with over 30% of juice left and thats not even using the power saving mode.

Completely stock unrooted. Imagine the battery life on a custom debloated rom with battery tweaks....

Took many ohotos today played music pretty much 2/3 of the day and watched netflix for 30 min and Transformers for 20 minutes. With moderate use of instagram and facebook ans a fair share of youtube. So much better than my iphone 4s and old galaxy sii

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ciphercodes:
Disabling svoice made a big difference.

This time I had everything disabled except network. I also turned off power saving mode but phone was not used overnight so that should not make a difference. Lost 11 % this time.

my phone lost 4% from 5am to 9 am sleeping
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] motibbs96:
Are you deactivating Svoice completely? or just the ability to wake up the device by using svoice?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ciphercodes:
I deactivated the wake command.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dragoncub:
I also came from an Epic 4G on Sprint. I was lucky to get 10 hours out of it if I barely touched it. The Note II blows it out of the water. Obviously being in excellent coverage helps, but still--well above what I expected. SVoice lock-wake is off.

I couldnt kill this battery as quick as I thought. Im still shocked at how long it lasts.

Yeah, 7+ hours screen on and still 25% battery left, no power saving mode. It was my 1st day having the phone after charging it, so that's why the high screen time. Lots of playing and getting to know what all this monster can do, I couldn't put it down... still can't lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] play2lose:
My first day after full charge I got around 3:30 on screen time :/ although that was with over an hour of Shadowgun which probably is a big drain.

On my 2nd full charge now, 10 hours, 2:35 hours screen on time and still have 53% left so it looks promising!

Here are mu rrsulys from owning it one day. I thought maybe by discharging it all the way i might get some more life but i see someone said the book says not to do it. I dobt get why i have suxh bad life ? Iguess from poor rrception at home and at work. And this ia with battery saver on.

I used wifi, 4g wheb at work, some games, talking a lottle, internet alot, spotify, and the spen. I had moat of the detection apps on like spen detect which doesnt work.

Today i shut off svoice to auto detect voice, i turned off some other i cannot remember right now. Hopefully today might be better, idk. Use ofairplane mode while i not using it at work and hav poor coverage. I am sitting at 74% currently with 3hours, which you could say all im going to get is 9hours at thia rate. Idk. Any answers? Disappointed.

My Battery is ok for now
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] spartan1132:
Just ordered my Note 2 Today and my (final) deciding factor between this and the Nexus 4 was battery life. I've been having major battery issues(which in turn created performance issues) with my nexus s for the last month or so and started doing some research I came across this site. It explains how to prolong battery life of li-ion batteries used in most devices.

Most li-ion batteries last 300-500 charge cycles according to the site. My Nexus S had well over 600 and I had been recently leaving it plugged in at my office because I was receiving better cell signal with the boost in power(my office not plugged in 3g dead zone plugged in 2 bars). I was also using it as a hot spot for my Note 10.1. With these combined factors I'm lucky to get 4 hrs on a full charge of my normal use, which I used to get a full day. All bad things for an already aged battery.

To sum up the article to help keep your battery living longer

-never let your device completely deplete if possible, best to let it drop to no less than 10-15% then charge fully with the device off

-reason being.... temperature is a key factor to producing longevity. Try to keep it as cool as possible.

-using it while on the charger charging/fully charged or leaving it in a hot place such as a car in the summer are all bad and

limit the amount of charge cycles.

-Charging while off will keep the heat lower and will limit overcharging (which limits charge cycles)

-It's also better to charge the device more frequently at partial discharges.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] drpstudios:
Cool report i will try out. Only thing is alarm clock.

My results for today we okay. I used 2g service only while at work indoors. No battery saver.

It could be better. Im thinking of contacting T-Mobile for a new battery. Idk.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mike2518:
You need to provide us with screen on time as well in order for us to gauge your device.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] slybarman:
I did not read the entire thread, so ignore if this was posted already. If you don't use Google talk, go into the app and log out. When you set up your google account on the phone, it logs you into Talk by default and it consumes some battery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] drpstudios:
So here are the results from yesterday. I barely used the phone. Went into airplane or 2g mode when needed. Couple of games no music, and Google now seems to always want to tell me how long it will take me to get home.

Thanks. Hope this is enough info
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] twolfekc:
Wish I could get these crazy screen on times like these other people:( oh well still blows my iphone 5 out of the water! !!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] twolfekc:
Howd you get it on for so long?!?!?!?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] konceptz:
As far as L ion or L polymer batteries go, the general rule of thumb is that you shouldn't completely decharge it as stated before.

And fast charging and de charging are detrimental. Which means to prolong the battery life as long as possible you should only trickle charge and keep the phone at minimum brightness.

But honestly, for $20 you can geta new battery from Samsung so why not enjoy? :)

Push it hard, push it long... so to speak.

Hmm I must have an app eating my battery. I only get 4 and a half hours screen time on in the day with just texting, Facebook, some internet and things like that. With maybe thirty minutes of gaming. It's still good compared to others phones but I can't seem to get the battery life everyone else is talking about. I close my apps out regularly too. Even have Google now and Google voice deactivated. Any suggestions?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] slybarman:
Not all screen on time is equal. Screen brightness can make all the difference in the world. Signal strength can make a world of difference as well. Then there are the misbebhaving apps too, but until you could drive yourself mad looking for an app problem that doesnt really exist.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] newbieandroid:
Auto brightness is on, I played Wild blood for 20 minutes along with Shadowgun. Watched 2 episodes of south park.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] play2lose:
Same here. Motion disable, google now disable, close out background apps. 4:30 hours screen on time seems my average, between like 4:00 and 4:50 max. This is on just under a day too, haven't gone a night without charging unlike some other people that are getting great on screen time. Still much better than my S3 but not the amazing 6 / 7 hours that you lucky bastards are able to get!

I had this same problem with my S3 though where everyone was getting 3 - 5 hours on screen time and my average seemed to be about 2:30 on screen time...I am in a low reception house most of the time which is where the drain is coming from I'm guessing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] michaeldotson817:
Yup same here in the s3 lol. Oh well. I eventually just order two aftermarket batteries from Amazon for most my phones.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] twolfekc:
I second that.. dont get it..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlczl:
Those who aren't getting really good screen on time more than likely have battery hogging apps. As an example, I was getting between 6 and 7 hours screen on time consistently until I installed the flip cover app. My screen on time went down by two hours. I noticed it immediately. I uninstalled it even though it was a very conveninent app and my screen on time jumped right back up.

I'm not too much of an "excessive app" type of guy but some of you all may have a ton of apps. Any one of which or a combination of, get you poor battery life.

Try out a custom rom / kernel!

I was losing 2% - 3% battery per hour in standby on stock, tested this multiple times and chalked it up to my low signal area.

I flashed Jedi 4 rom last night (Which includes perseus kernel) and overnight only lost 4% in over 7 hours! (And this was with the signal quality low to none) I'm thinking I'll be able to reach that 5-6 hour screen on time now but haven't tested the rom too long. Also my 3d graphics performance in gaming is way up over the stock rom, which was throttling my CPU too slow.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ayman86:
i fully charged my phone before going to sleep. only lost 2% in about 6 or so hours.

stock rooted. not on wifi calling. was kinda surprised.

usually i get about 4.5-5 hours of on screen time. anywhere from 15 hours to 39 hours of usage. depends how heavily i use it on any given day.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tri0xinn:
battery life on this sucker is nuts.. I shoulda taken a screenshot but forgot. I was on a flight from Philadelphia to Seattle this last Monday.. a ~6 hour flight. I boarded the plane with 91 percent charge and other than when you have to turn your phone off for take off and landing my screen was on about every second of the flight. I bought gogo inflight internet and surfed as well as watched 3 episodes of "hell onwheels" on Netflix... some of "get the gringo" also. Played Night of the living dead Defense game for a while.. played Super Castlevania 4 for an hour on snesoid. When I got off the plane I had 50 percent left. The only difference in my normal use was the brightness was nearly all the way down... but holy crap that's awesome battery life!!

RIght now It's been 1 day and 2 hours since my phone has been plugged in and I still have 57 percent.. this is with my normal/moderate usage. Best phone ever by far IMO!

Can't even get close to what everyone is getting and I'm the Tampa area on Jedi x ROM and debloated some.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdt73:
Initially, I ran my battery down to around 7%... which took forever, and then charged to full. I now only charge when I am down to around 5%, and normally get 35 - 40 hours of battery with around 3-5 hours of screen use. All on a stock rom that's only rooted. I just don't have a warm and fuzzy that everything works with the current crop of roms, to include battery life and the S-Pen.

Some shots from tonight, heavier use in an area with not the best of coverage, so my battery was hit a bit harder than normal.
