... Just broke the 10 hour screen on mark, and I'm still left with 13%... O.o

Wi-Fi on all the time, fluctuating 2G/3G reception (but no data used!) 3 short calls (avg 3 min each), 6 texts, WhatsApp, Facebook, messenger, and a lot of Tapatalk-xda.

No power saver or anything like that, autobrightness set at default (center +0).

Note: Take into account that I spent the time at my place, indoors, so oled wasn't running at full blast.

It took me 2 hours to run battery from 100% to 90% and I thought that the fuel gauge was laughing at me, so I decided to use the phone til I get to 1%...

It seems it's not lying at all :D

Oh yeah, everything is synced in the background, push notifications, Gmail, calendar and Samsung push services also.

I'll post later screen caps when I get to 5%

Still can't quite believe it is real... Running stock kernel mj1 with delavega and greenify... Aaah underclocking will be fun :)

Ok, just hit 10% and I took some screen caps.

Just broke the 11 hour mark...?

Oh forgot to mention that I also have SmartStay and WalkingMate always active 24/7...

Reached 1% battery with 11h 45m

... yep...(Used Microsoft Remote desktop for a while to kill the battery).

Connected to the charger 3 minutes ago.

Will add final screenshot soon.

Me = Happy!!! (and no, I don't want to update or even touch anything!!!) :D

Took around 2 hours 10 minutes to go from 1% to 100% Green Led, with the phone running! :)

off the charger 8am. Typical use 8-10GB per month. power save on. screen at 30%. Get home minight 35% still left, or 3 more hours of use. I charge between 20% and 80%, so 50-60% added per charge to get the best cycling.

I only get 4 hours of screen on time so battery life is much much much less than I expected. Funny how my wife's iPhone 5c battery lasts 30% longer even with the smaller battery. Not sure how that is even on lowest brightness.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] jeromepearce:
Seriously people?

Seriously?

People are complaining about a 6.5 hour on screen time, and comparing the battery usage to an iPhone that has a massively smaller screen and massively less powerful processor?

Give it back, let someone who wants what it offers have it, and go get a ****** iPhone, I say....
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dr.m0x:
You forgot to mention that the iPhone also does less.

Hi guys,

I have my Note 3 since 2days. I have a lot of problems to get through the day with the battery. Also I recognized my Note getting quite hot all the time. After some research on the Internet (thx, Google) I found the problem: the problem is the indexing for the Samsung search. After I removed my 64gb SD card, all is fine. It is not related to pdf files only. Removing them from the SD card did not solve the problem.

http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...-stopped-screen-freezing-every-2-minutes.html

Can somebody of you confirm you have the same problem or maybe have an idea how to disable the Samsung indexing?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] RequiemDK:
I get vastly improved battery life after disabling all of Facebook's shenanigans. Disabled its chat availability, contact syncing, notifications, etc. I went from 4 hours of screen time in about 24 hours of use (before hitting 15%) to about 7.5 hours of it now. Crazy stuff. Also turned off "Use Wireless Networks" under Location Settings too since that seems to wakelock the phone for stupid reasons.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] zmfl:
I feel the same way as the OP. And I'm not even rooted yet, I just disabled what bloat I could.

Games, facebook, youtube, music, always online, all that good stuff.. And still can't drop the battery below 40-50% by the end of the day. Lovin' it.

You're doing it wrong. Disable the stock junk you are not using, and you'll get 6+ hrs ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] 1sagain:
You are doing something wrong.

My Note 3 lasted me 2 days, I play lots of Real Racing 3 and Zenonia, I even watched The Conjuring in BLU RAY (phone did not heat up with HD Youtube and Bluray movies) With so little heat produced and such longevity, I lost that FEAR i had with all other phones of having to charge my phone (paranoid charging)

By this point my friends 5S is dead even by watching some you tube clips. Gaming by about the 15th hour. The longest he went was from 11 AM in the morning to 9 PM of heavy usage.The Note 3 surpasses that Easily

The iPhones lose 1% every few minutes when in use is what we observed with the 5S , 5C and also my GF's 5

My Note 3 stays at 100% for the first 2- 3 hours then drops to 99% (I don't play games in the morning, I do lots of browsing and texting and kakaoing)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Piercing Heavens:
My note 3 became extremely hot always. It always got the the point where I could not touch the camera because I felt it would burn me. I had de-bloated the phone through app manager but battery life was always terrible. All the extra stuff that comes with samsung was disabled as well. If I didn't touch the phone the battery lasted forever. Just when it was in use it died so quickly.

What really annoyed the heck out of me more than anything was the horrible radios on that phone. Lost signal from 4g and Wifi all the time. Never was an issue on other phones.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] jonnyaztec:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] wjl124:
I have tried to use a samsung 64GB micro sd card in my galaxy s4, but everytime i put music on the sd it says the sd is damaged and needs to be reformatted. I contacted T Mobile and they told me that their version of the galaxy s4 would only take sd cards up to 32GB. I have read some other treads on this site to try and get around this, like the exfat thing of fat32, both of which failed. I have recently rooted my phone, successfully, and i was wondering if anybody could help me get past this 32GB sd card only bs. Now that I have rooted my phone is there any option i can take to successfully have my 64GB sd work in my galaxy s4. If you need more information please let me know. I would like to solve this problem as quickly as possible. Thank you in advance to anyone willing to try and help me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] baseballfanz:
Find a kernel that's exFAT compatible our reformat to FAT32. The factory firmware s should be compatible iirc.

Tmobile is wrong about only accepting 32GB sd card.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] wjl124:
I have tried both ways exFat and Fat32. I have over 32GB on the sd card, but once i put the sd in my phone the phone tells me the the sd is damaged. I am new to all this ROM, Kernel, etc... stuff. Where could I find a kernel that supports exFat or FAT32 and how would I install this on my phone without messing it up?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] baseballfanz:
I think they all support FAT32, stock firmware should support exFAT. You might just have a bad card.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] marielinn76:
Maybe try reinstalling the Rom? Factory reset?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] BillBauman:
I honestly think, if you've really tried 3 different sd cards, that you could have a bad MicroSD slot. You might go into T-Mobile and ask them if you can try your card in one of their S4's. If your card works fine in a different phone, then, if your phone is a recent purchase, exchange it, if it's relatively new, get a warranty replacement.

I'll stick with my Pebble. Not a fan of the mini-computer-on-wrist thing... The pebble still looks like a watch.
[One (M7) Accessories] thevuman:
You want to pay $300 to not take your phone out of your pocket?
[One (M7) Accessories] mitrx:
You still have to take it out of your pocket anyway. All the gear does is tell you you have an email or sms,doesn't actually show who from or the message at all. Kinda makes it useless in my opinion.

I do really want a smart watch myself and the only decent one is the pebble.
[One (M7) Accessories] wangtang2k:
JaredC01 is right. The pebble still looks like a watch plus it gets decent battery life considering the screen is always readable and doesn't shut off unlike the Galaxy Gear. I can find out who's calling me, what's playing, what message they sent me without having to use my other hand to power the screen on (unless the gear has an accelerometer trigger to turn the screen on when flicking one's wrist). Sticking with my pebble until something better arrives.

Do you think should I buy a Pebble NOW? I mean, is it too late?
[One (M7) Accessories] gakzilla:
I won't want to be that connected to my phone.
[One (M7) Accessories] wangtang2k:
I think they're trying to finish with the pre-orders first before being sold in retail stores (if any at all or maybe only online). A lot of people backed this kickstart project and the pebble orders piled up quickly. I backed them up last year on September and I just got mine this past June. Maybe the wait is less now, or maybe not.
[One (M7) Accessories] Havocwreaker:
I ordered my Pebble watch just under a month ago and it just arrived.

It's not about not wanting to take your phone out to look at, rather it's about being a little more subtle when checking updates. I can check messages and notifications with the same amount of disruptions as a wrist flick.
[One (M7) Accessories] super-6-1:
If you want something cheap get a Sony watch first or second version for 50-150 on ebay if you want a wrist communicator

But with the pebble you can do some useful things like delete messages, skip through songs, and other stuff that would be useful for say running or if you are at the office and don't want to be blatant about certain things.
[One (M7) Accessories] NewAmericanClassic:
Would be very useful on a motorcycle!
[One (M7) Accessories] :
I know I'm a little late to the party, but I bought my pebble a month ago in best buy. It was honerstly an amazing piece of hardware and works well. I didn't need to order it or wait. I had an s4 at the time a d it didn't work well with Samsung's talkback bug but I would buy again in a heartbeat... It's a smaller size to me. I usually wear large faces like diesel or breitling but otherwise it works better than the gear.

Questions answered about the Galaxy Gear

I work for Sprint, and I was awarded the Galaxy Gear as part of the Galaxy Note 3 Advocate package. As for what the watch is capable of, it does more than what the previous posters have stated. To answer some of what was said.....it does display your text messages, and it allows you to respond via S-Voice to them. It has a media controller that allows you to skip tracks, control volume levels, and play/pause media including videos. It has a pedometer, accesses your contacts, call logs, and more. I love mine, but I'm honestly waiting for someone to figure out how to successfully pair it with the HTC One or the One Max so I can come back to my HTC. The Note 3 is awesome, but I would rather be using my HTC One with the gear.....thats my take on it.
[One (M7) Accessories] y2k1ltd:
I bought my pebble from best buy, love it. I've played with the Galaxy Gear, Samsung tried sticking way too many features into the watch and forgot that it was a watch. Get the Pebble.
[One (M7) Accessories] cidvanski:
I didn't pay for mine....got it for free. I had a customer who brought in his iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S to recycle after purchasing the Note 3 using the Sprint 1-Up program for $47.25.....got the gear for free with enough change from the recycle to purchase a body glove case with no out of pocket cost!!
