Yesssss!!! The first couple of days use of this used G2 and I'm amazed at the battery life. I'm stock 4g/H/3g and some wifi and I hammered it for the first 2 1/2 hrs with wifi, setting it up etc and now I'm on 4 1/2 hrs SOT and 44 hours up and 11% left and phone tells me I still have another 6 hours. I got 2 days out of my rooted nexus 4 running Calkulin's Rom V1.5 but only managed 2 hrs SOT on 3g/H. This G2 is much better and 4g! Now should I root it for louder sound. Will Gravity and Exposed work on this phone?
[G2 General] Mattecko99:
How do you get better sound?
[G2 General] faithraze:
Gravity box works both with kitkat and jb, im using g2 xposed and gravity box to mod. With stock roms plus well known kernels here, u can have 1% loss in 12 hours.

Even when i suffer from battery drain on my phone, i still get 60+ hours of battery life, with 4 hours of screen on time and usually about 1 hour of calls. I've consistently had this battery life for months now whilst using PA and Slimkat, which both offered this amount of battery life.

I typically use my phone for hangouts, emails, texting, browsing and calling. If i were to use my phone in the same way, but more heavily, I'd still easily get over 5 hours of screen on time.

My brightness averages around 50%. I've got default CPU settings, no custom kernels, no apps causing unexpected wakelocks and NO silly "save battery life" apps.

I find Google Maps is ALWAYS causing me wakelocks, regardless of what device, ROM or kernel i'm using. My friends disagree with me on this, but they can't replicate my battery life xD.
[G2 General] jeyd02:
Yes that's kitkat. I'm being using the phone and so far I have 9h OSt with 31% left of battery.

my screen draws power extremely fast... barely 2 hours of screen-on time on 50% brightness. auto-brightness is too dim for my tastes.

software tweaks aren't going to solve a problem like this...

going to try to replace the battery soon. I don't think things were always like this.

what kind of usage ruins a battery to this extent? I don't think any of what I do is all that odd.
[G2 General] SPBoss:
You can leave autobrightness on but set it to the brightness level you prefer. That way it will still be auto but will autoadjust to the preferred screen brightness according to ambient light levels and the level that you set. Manually setting 50% wastes battery, especialliy indoor where that level is way too bright. Hope this helps
[G2 General] Rdmkr:
battery replaced, problem solved.

this is what the old battery looked like, WTF.

now I understand why I couldn't close the seams in the plastic on the left side of the phone.

replacing the "non-replaceable" battery is quite doable, thankfully.
[G2 General] frettfreak:

Don´t know if kitkat rom is less android system hungry or gram not working properly, but screen is always number one draining battery. On JB it was always system.

Almost 3 hours screen time on screen.
[G2 General] detonation:
Dunno about you guys but I just picked up a G2 and the battery life is nuts. Been playing with it throughout the day and I'm currently at 55% battery with almost 3.5h screen on time. 50% brightness, on LTE the whole time, only thing I did was rooted and froze some of the bloat.
[G2 General] abhinav.tella:
I get 7.5 Hrs SOT without debloating, I did do that now though not much difference. Just wait a few charge cycles, estimation will become more accurate. LTE doesnt help it battery.

Tips for a good battery life

hello to all .

I do not know if it can help those who have problems life of the battery but since I 'm on an official rom by LG , I have no more problems.I've just flashed another kernel and that all.

I tested all 4.4.2 rom and the only positive points are :

* Ram managment

* The reativity (When open an app )

* The advantages of android 4.4 ( slim project)

* Camera mods (120 fps , magic focus and UHD )

But even with the advantages mentioned above , the system is not as fluid as in 4.2.2 . The lags srolling are permanent in 4.4.2 (scroll in contact, google+ , xda app, scroll or pinch to zoom in stock browser etc) in 4.2.2 i never see all micro lags ! Difference is even more apparent with the application Hoverchat . when I move the tooltip anywhere on the screen , I constantly lags with kit kat not with jellybean constantly remains fluid .

Finally, I do not know if it just me but I feel that the color rendering on the screen is more beautiful with Jellybean that Kit Kat . ( Photos, videos etc ...) color are more vivid!

good luck to all

my setup :

rom: D80210F Firmware

kernel: 3.7 dorimanx

mod : camera xdabbeb

No debloat
[G2 General] buenarc:
That is great! Thank you you for the information
[G2 General] osmosizzz:
My battery life is insane. Look at those numbers!!! Seriously, after kitkat, my battery life has gone to hell. Thinking about going back to JB and just staying there. I even underclocked to 1.5Ghz and that's not even helping. No matter what rom and kernel combo I do on kitkat, it's almost impossible for me to get descent battery life.
[G2 General] kapybarus:
I m with you with this. Going to hit a try new paranoid. Maybe with KK base it would be better now.
[G2 General] greyhd:
Something is definitely wrong. Install wakelock detector and post a screenshot.
[G2 General] MDaveUK:
I have amazing battery life on stock kernel stock LG rom (latest kitkat).

I just had to track down what was causing wake locks :)

Touch sounds (disable this in settings!) This seems to cause insane amount of wake locks. ?! Bug in rom I think!

Google Search app's "OK Google", turn this off in its settings too, this was causing large amount of wakelocks.

If you have Facebook installed, this causes a lot of wake locks too, I turned off notications and now I just manually refresh.

Facebook Messenger is another one for huge amount of wake locks , even worse then Facebook app! I removed this entirely and just use the messenger thats already in the Facebook app.

I've been on Battery for 1 hour 10 minutes ... still at 100%! This is with just 6 minutes of screen on time though, but it shows standby time is now as good or better then JB!

I hope this has been useful :)

Used mostly tapatalk, whatsapp, fb, downloaded some apps, and some pdfs , phone calls , mails etc

Legendary.
[G2 General] :
question

Just curious, with the extreme battery profile that you mention, how much of a compromise with performance?
[G2 General] nomad4ever:
Yeah, I also was quite disappointed with reviews and my actual usage. The most I got out of it so far was 4 hours SOT. Which is better than my Galaxy Nexus before, but nothing like the 6-8 hours SOT I read before in reviews.

I'm rooted since day 2 and toyed around with de-bloating, switching off LTE/Mobile Location Services, TiBu freezing unused apps, Greenifying almost everything, Lux Autobrightness and so on.

4 hours 5 mins is the most SOT I ever got....I mainly do Web Browsing, Tapatalk, Whatsapp, Facebook and other social networking apps. Standby is awesome though, but I want to use that piece, not admire it laying around on my desk. I also thought it would improve my Ingress Playing Times a lot, but nahhh, Ingress eats through my battery like nothing else......still charging it 2x a day.....but alright, Galaxy Nexus in the end was always on charger when not in use....
[G2 General] player911:
I typically use 50% screen brightness. 100% is too bright unless I'm outside. Saves some here.

I don't see a place to disable 4G on Verizon. On my GNex, I would pull upwards to 80mbps o LTE which is overkill for a few minor app updates and exchange. Verizon 3G is 5-7mbps which is perfect for mobile usage. The LTE radio uses a bunch of battery.
[G2 General] ZoZo-:
Sure, I did not use the phone all the time, didn't have more than 2 hours and 30 minutes screen-on time. But sync was on all the time, 4G connection, brightness on 85 %, a couple of phonecalls and such.. This is the only screenshot I have of that time tho. Took it after waking up. Coming from a HTC One X this LG G2 is just crazy :)
[G2 General] 1stichiban:

more than 50 hours and almost 6 hours screen time. didn't think this was possible.

I'm on stock firmware, not rooted.

[G2 General] Black Dwarf:
Here's my record. 70 hours and 13% left. As it's my work phone, this makes me happy :)
[G2 General] New8killer:
I am a very heavy user. I stream music via bluetooth on the way to work which is about 30 minutes with screen on 100% brightness. I use it for group messaging while at work. Then i will either play games or watch netflix for an hour on lunch. Then i stream music again on the way home. I have never even been in the orange before i get home. That is all without any changes to the phone other than root and malladus ROM. Awesome battery. Especially compared to my DNA or galaxy nexus.
[G2 General] tiguy99:
I'm getting the same long battery life as you guys as well. 3 months into this phone and the experience is just as awesome as the very first time I touched it. ( which for me is a lot since i put these phones through their paces daily)

1 word to describe this phone...

Amazing!
[G2 General] theDroidfanatic:
A question to all,

How is your battery life on CM11? The official nighties, like generally, how much screen time do you get on a full charge? And with what settings?

Cheers
[G2 General] kapybarus:
I get two hours and few minutes screen time for 20 % battery - constant internet and gps during navigation. So I think it is good. But there are other bugs still.
[G2 General] mab71:
Dont know whether its good or faulty..
[G2 General] tiguy99:
Nope mine will do that too ...brightness about 30-40%...with email, browser and 2 other random apps open...light usage meaning check email, hop on the web for a few mins of browsing here and there...its not uncommon for my phone to stay at 100% for 2-3 hours sometimes.

I charge my phone to 100% then yank it off the charger. Try not to leave it charging overnight & I get this kind of battery life too. I Avg about 2-3 days before I have to recharge the phone
[G2 General] Kreuger:
Last weekend my phone was just shy of 58 hrs when it died.
[G2 General] theDroidfanatic:
Thanks :) So you mean, after 2 hours+ screen time, you still have 80 percent left?
[G2 General] OldOldDev:
4-5 hours seems very poor and very unlike the G2/ I'm unrooted and get around double that
[G2 General] Plain Water:
Unable to get the same battery life.

i was unable to get the same battery life. i used the same settings, but my phone barely lasts 1 day. i even reinstalled the cm 10.2 rom, but still same results. I'm able to get about 2 days battery life stock lg g2 rom.

---------- Post added at 11:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM ----------

hi, im experiencing the same thing too. i play games such as candy crush and jetpack joyride, and the battery drains about 5% after 10mins of gameplay. when i don't touch my phone, it seems like it will never die...
[G2 General] kapybarus:
yeah, but didn´t test it more because of in call volume bug.
[G2 General] khaytsus:
There's no reason to "yank your phone off the charger", it's just going to idle, not charging, until it drops a few percent, then it'll charge until it's back to 100%, etc. Unless the environment is 35c or higher this will not harm the battery in any way.
[G2 General] SomethingWild88:
Hmm... This is making me a little concerned now. I usually get bombarded with messages from either text or Facebook, so I usually get around 30 hours of battery life. But like some have said before me, I've literally worked 12 hours, only turned on the screen to see the time/any new notifications, and dropped 2%. I honestly never go past 50% brightness (don't need it!) and I'm usually set at 0% brightness.
[G2 General] XERO_Racer:
I dont know what the fuss bout the battery life is all about but here are my results with Rayglobe 3.2 and Im on AT&T and, this is by far the best phone I've ever purchased, easily surpasses my Note 2 in every way especially battery life!

I shouldve took more pics of the battery graph bar but this is more than enough to state my true results

-31 Hours

-Went on Wifi and 4G throughout this test

-About almost 3 hours of phone calls, half the time I had speakerphone on

-65% Brightness constantly

-Just a little over 5 hours of OST

-Plenty of TXT coming in with a few MMS received and sent

-Couple of hours of Web Browsing and tweaking around in the phone

-Restarted the phone a few times to flash mods in recovery

-Few snapped pictures and recorded videos

-Syncing Email, Facebook, Instagram and with facebook messenger going off every 10 mins in the background

-Music and Video for a few mins throughout

This you can never go wrong

Hello ^^

My first post here. I recently got my hands on this beauty and I am very content with its battery life. On the first day I checked for updates and got Kitkat 4.4.2. Of course I installed the update immediately.

I'm a moderate user. When I'm at home I only use it when I need it. When I'm away and don't have anything to do then I'm draining the battery a few times faster. At home I have constantly the Wi-fi on. In other cases I use LTE when I needed and then turn it off as it eats the battery quite fast. I have the bluetooth, GPS, autosync etc. turned off.

I also use the Battery Doctor app and I think the phone's battery loves it :P

Today I set my personal record on this baby. I attached screens. Tell me what you think :D
[G2 General] 10maxbor:
Nice battery life :good:
[G2 General] jaawolf:
With moderate usage, I was able to hit 64hrs with CloudyFlex 2.3, location off, autosync on, wifi/4g enabled (dependent on location). Used the GPS and some heavy apps a couple of times. Could have definitely squeezed more out of it, but I enjoy using this phone.
[G2 General] Sagans_Gh0sts:
I have a rooted vs980. I wireless charge when I sleep and when I wake up I have a black unresponsive screen. This is becoming more and more frequent. Also I have not completed process to completely unlock the bootloader and it will cause bootloader error. Is the black screen while wireless charging caused from the bootloader error?
[G2 General] Mattecko99:
I'm on stock 4.4.2 and can't even get to 4 hours SOT. This sucks.. :(
[G2 General] Ace42:
That bad? Perhaps it's a rogue app, I can get 4-5hrs on either my N4 or LG Optimus G, so you should be able to achieve close to that. Something is draining your battery, not sure what.

[G2 General] cmltskrn:
freeze or uninstall

Is there any differences freezing apps or uninstalling?
[G2 General] isavji:
From my understanding, un-installing system or preloaded apps with Titanium Backup can cause problems on your phone. Freezing keeps it on your phone but it is essentially disabled and prevented from running, without messing up your phone.

Hope this helps.
[G2 General] .jRay.:
Freezing system apps help in better performance and battery without messing with the phone. Uninstalling sys apps can cause fc's and crashes. Freezing means the app is still installed but is prevented from opening. Helpful for bloatware.

* I also watch a lot of video on youtube or streaming (1- 2h)

* I listen to a lot of music (2h)

* game ...a little (20-30 min)
