Hi guys, how low does the copy go when sleeping? I may be wrong but does it have to idle higher like in the 300s because it is a quad core?

At any rate, I am sure there will be updates that will improve battery. I also know the awesome devs here will come up with some amazing battery saving Roms and kernals.

I am actually using the stock ROM and kernel now for the first time with my nex 7 and am loving it. This is the first time it has not been over clocked and every thing works smoothly and battery had been awesome. If the nex 4 works as well I will be so happy.

[Nexus 4 General] nyijedi:
Can someone tell me how long it should take for the phone to go into deep sleep once idle?

Also, I'm a little confused about deep sleep and identifying apps keeping the phone from going into deep sleep. For example, can the phone still go into deep sleep when certain apps are running? Take the GMail app as an example. If you leave syncing on for GMail, will the phone never go into deep sleep? I'm assuming this is not the case, but if it's not, how do you determine which apps are preventing deep sleep?

Any help/clarification would be much appreciated. Thanks!

So far the battery is quite a bit better than my Skyrocket. I haven't had a chance to use it yet on my regular daily schedule but I'm pretty sure I'm going to be more than satisfied with it. I am in general a light-to-moderate user so I don't need anything hardcore.

It charges really quickly too, so on those days where it does need a boost at least that's not an issue.

I guess it helps to be coming from a phone two generations old. ;)

I've been using the thing pretty heavily for 4 hours right now and I'm down to 30%. I mean HEAVY. I've been steaming music to my Bluetooth speakers, playing games, and browsing/twitter. Screen has been on the whole time too on half brightness. As soon as I get over the new phone excitement I'm sure I'll be able to get a full day's use easily out of it.

Is screen time really relevant? I'm asking because I don't know. Wouldn't the screen time vary depending on what you're doing with it on? I mean I'm sure the screen time is longer if you're just reading a book compared to screen time on playing final fantasy.

Anyone experienced a bug related to the battery monitor?

My Nexus was showing 34% left of battery, then, while on Rdio, it rebooted.

Once the system was up again, I've received a message saying I should plug the charger. I checked the battery and there was only 11% left. :confused:

I've decided to reboot and now I have 12% since 3-4hours :silly:

The graphic on the monitor has a huge drop and has not moved ever since. I'm waiting to my battery die in order to recharge to avoid an overcharge.

I'm scared. :(

Whatever i do i cant get more than 4+ sot with 16 hours of single charge.

No matter whatever rom and kernel i flash .

4hours sot is max for me .

:mad:
[Nexus 4 General] salehmbaker:
and the other day I squeezed 6.5 hours (mostly youtube and light games and chrome). I did not tweak anything, the max frequency is 1000 mhz (set by the battery saver app Antutu Battery saver), for the governor I use Weatley and IO Deadline. the GPU is underclocked to 325 mhz. BTW the only tweak I did to save battery was the Governor (the frequencies of the cpu and gpu are decreased to prevent overheating) BTW with this settings I get 16226 on AnTutu and the performance is flawless and no overheating (under heavy use I get 32 c max compared to 45+ c with the normal settings) the maximum score I got from Antutu with the max settings (1500 mhz cpu and 487 mhz gpu) I get 22000+ on antutu

Sleep usage is bad!

I am losing about 2.5% per hour during sleep. My standby time has taken a huge hit compared to 4.2.2.

Can you guys share how much is your utilization per hour during sleep?

I take it off from charger before sleep. When I wake up, it would be around 85% or even less. Data, WiFI, email sync, Facebook sync everything off. Nothing bad in BBS. No bad wakelocks there. On best days it would be like 2% drain per hour. At this rate my phone will run just 2 days even if I don't make a single call. That's more like half standby time I used to have at 4.2.2

Zero % drop while in deep sleep?.. That 10% drops down as crazy when you start using your phone after a long deep sleep.4% falls instantly the moment you turn on the screen and use phone for a few secs.battery charge keeps on falling fast till a certain point. It happens with me like that..1% drop per hour in deep sleep is better i guess than this other scenario in which battery drops down fast as hell after deep sleep

[Nexus 4 General] Ace42:
Likely something in your setup causing that. I was 15min shy of 6hrs yesterday before it shutoff.

Anyway I recommend turning off things you don't need like GPS, background sync, BT, etc. Use Greenify to silence annoying apps that like to hold the device awake, and turn off WiFi if you don't plan on using it for an extended period. For instance I turn off lte overnight because I don't care about notifications while I'm asleep(can also try airplane mode at nite).

I've been using 2 cores most of the time and switching to 4 for benches, since I do not feel any difference between the two. This is not necessary, it's just the extra cores don't seem to contribute anything speed wise in my experience on 4.3.

I'm seeing a useful reduction in standby power consumption. I'm completely stock with no concession to battery life other than I keep the screen dim where I can and I don't use Google Currents on the Nexus 4. In use, there's little difference but when idle (running all radios) it's kinder to the battery. I'm seeing around 1% / hour drain with our without AutoSync on.

On 4.2.2 it was around twice that, perhaps a little less.

Of course, things aren't like for like because the new Google Services is heavier on the battery... ;)

Can someone tell me what use they get from Xda if they don't like to use any of the custom software? I mean I would cease my activity here if I wanted just stock because nothing would ever apply to me.

Every time I've gotten a new device I'd come straight here and find the best rooting methods and flash whatever ROM suited me. Never in this mind of mine have I even fathomed the possibility of using stock longer than the initial purchase period.
[Nexus 4 General] barondebxl:
You're asking questions to yourself. I love the note 2, still I rooted it. Love the HTC one stock, still rooted it. That's fun. It keeps the geek part of you busy. Wanting to root a phone doesn't mean it's bad stock. Capiche?
[Nexus 4 General] Ace42:
I meant to quote the other fellow. And still that doesn't really answer what purpose xda serves in the long run if you remain on stock.

This phone in particular is my least fav on stock due to:

Stock screen colors

Sound/music quality,fixed by viper

Bluetooth issues

No lte on T-Mobile

WiFi was slower than normal max speeds

WiFi 5.0ghz issues

Keyboard freezing

Can't change vibration str

Can't change throttle

Can't use white theme, not fan of holo dark
