[G Pad 8.3 General] antigravity:
My tab, running CM11 has just got about 5.5h of screen time over 2-3 days.

Screen brightness at about 75% to match 50% screen brightness of my iPad Mini.
[G Pad 8.3 General] tdodd:
I've had mine for a week and I've managed 6:16 hours of screen time over 34 hour period to get down to 3% remaining battery. This was with brightness at 40% for over 5 hours and 30% for the last hour or so. This was mostly for email and browsing, with a few downloads and installs, but no games.
[G Pad 8.3 General] Victoria75001:
I get, on average, a little over 5 hours screen-on time over two or three days, with the rest of the time on standby (wifi on, auto mail checks happening once an hour or so). The screen-on time is probably about 50% Candy Crush style games, the rest web browsing, email, and messenger. I don't do much video playback, but when I tested that (iPlayer) I was losing 12-15% battery per hour so would expect about 7 hours on a full charge. I usually have screen brightness on about 50%.
[G Pad 8.3 General] the.noise:
Right now I have about 13% left, with 3 hours 40 minutes of screen time, 18 hours off the charger. Most of that is playing graphics heavy games, however, specifically Modern Combat 4 and Real Boxing. I've only had the gpad for about 3 days though, so I'm sure my battery's performance isn't optimum yet.
[G Pad 8.3 General] patton82:
Under 5h of screen on for me, not really good...
[G Pad 8.3 General] Karla1:
It depends on high intense my gaming is on the device, as sometimes the battery can only last a matter of hours which sucks!

Usually though if I'm just browsing the internet and 50% bright, then it would usually last around 1-1.5 days.
[G Pad 8.3 General] Kairoku:
This isn't the most scientific answer but my typical use is reading manga/watching anime for a few hours at night in bed. So my brightness is usually pretty low. With this kinda use It tends to last a few days. At one point I left it at my house and was gone for about a week and it only went down a few percent. So the standby time is definitely fantastic for this thing. However the few times i took it with me and used it frequently all day for various things (games, web browsing, reading etc. 60-80% brightness) it was dead by the end of the day or sooner.
[G Pad 8.3 General] dimi_dimi:
5 hours of screen time on 50% brightness browsing web
[G Pad 8.3 General] Lucien2:
I'm getting about 7 hours screen time( 40% brightness) .
[G Pad 8.3 General] orion13236:
4 / 4H30 hours screen on, brightness 60% (below the screen is too dark...) i get almost 8 hours with my galaxy tab 7.7 with brightness 100% !!

disappointing...
[G Pad 8.3 General] nicouchot:
I watch a 720p video for 2h hour with maximum brightness under the stock ROM and I got still 70% left at the end.

In normal use I reach 2 days.
[G Pad 8.3 General] DrDeeJay:
I just bought mine...and i immediately started charging it...how do i know when it is full...will there be a green light shown on the tablet or something?
[G Pad 8.3 General] lKBZl:
It will say charged on lockscreen.
[G Pad 8.3 General] kdog350:
First day using the Google play edition, got 3 hours screen on time, 50% left
[G Pad 8.3 General] Stujoe:
That's where I am aft for the same usual brightness level.
[G Pad 8.3 General] Ste_Vege:
Are you using the stock rom??
[G Pad 8.3 General] Lucien2:
4600mAh battery really holds its own. A full charge and light use will, we think, see as much as five days use from the device. Use it a bit more heavily and that figure will drop, but our test of a tablet battery is "can you hammer it all day, then charge it at night" and this is the case here.
[G Pad 8.3 General] Deadbolt:
I've had my G Pad since New Year's eve and I'm on the fence about the battery. I have noticed that on idle/sleep, it does great but when you start using it, it feels as if the battery is really taking a beating when seeing the percentage decrease pretty rapidly. I once used the G Pad for about 5-6 hours of screen-on time in a total of about 7 hours off the charger. It had about 10-15% left. Yesterday and today I've had the G Pad off the charger, mostly doing emails, lots of Web browsing and a good mount of YouTube videos. Below are the screen shots. Is this good battery life for a tablet of this size?
[G Pad 8.3 General] Mindspin_311:
Just got my gpe the other day, still on the first full charge, but I noticed that actually turning off the device throws off the battery stats since it only shows stats since boot
[G Pad 8.3 General] Deadbolt:
Here's another crack to the battery life. I am thinking about exchanging the G Pad for another one, thinking I have a faulty one because of the battery and the screen brightness. Or it may just be how the device performs. If so, that's a bit disappointing.

Yesterday I tested it playing .avi movies and I noticed that a movie that's about 107 mins long at 100% brightness w/ no volume on will approximately use up 30% battery. At 5% remaining, the tablet refused to play any video and turning from 2% to 1%, the device shut off. It never got to 1% remaining.

Overall I got 7 hours 26 mins on the battery, 5 hours 57 mins of screen on time and 5 hours 22 mins of video at 100% w/ no volume.

I think that's a bit underwhelming for a battery of this size. Should battery be better than this?
[G Pad 8.3 General] whoamigriffiths:
That sounds reasonable battery life if you are on the stock rom.

I love the idea of all the extras that stock brings but it has an awful lot of apps continually running, which is going to drain a battery quickly.

Edit to add.... Though in fairness the early replacement roms had quite scary battery life.

Though it looks like they have all settled down well.

If you like stock, maybe try malladus rom though it was still pretty app heavy.
[G Pad 8.3 General] SCWells72:
Yeah, I have this same question. I have a GPE and can literally watch the battery drop while I'm just casually browsing around...nothing truly taxing like a game or movie, just scanning news and such. I haven't done a full endurance test to see just how long it can go, but it definitely seems considerably worse than my previous tablets (Nook HD+ running Cyanogenmod, HP Touchpad running Cyanogenmod, iPad 3 though I know that's not a fair comparison). When I look at the battery stats, the overwhelming majority of it is going to the screen, but I'm also using Lux Dash (only adjusting on wake) to keep the typical screen brightness lower than 100% based on ambient lighting.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how battery life on this device might be improved, or is this just what we should expect out of this device? It's not like the CPU is crazy fast, nor is the screen crazy high-resolution, e.g., 2560x1600, and the battery is a decent size. Something seems out of whack here, but maybe it's just my expectations that are wrong?
[G Pad 8.3 General] Mindspin_311:
On my GPE, I notice the same thing. Battery drops hard during use. But, it idles like no other. I can let it idle for 8 hours and see maybe a 2% drop.
[G Pad 8.3 General] Canadoc:
I had the same thought. For the dimness of the screen and the size of the battery, I thought battery life should be much better. Especially when you compare it to nexus 7 2013
[G Pad 8.3 General] Deadbolt:
I ran another test, by running a .avi movie for about 107 minutes at 50% brightness instead of 100% and the battery dropped about 20%. By those numbers at 50% brightness, it can play movies for about 8-9 hours which is good in my opinion. Only thing is, for most, 50% will not cut it for watching a movie due to how dim the screen is at 50% brightness. I'm starting to think that my expectations are just too high.
[G Pad 8.3 General] el Filou:
I got 7 hours screen time on the first charge, 8 hours on the second, I predict 8h30 or 9 hours on this one, but I only use the tablet at home and at low brightness (never above 50%, which is enough for me, I like low brightness screens).

Factory stock ROM v500 with no updates, just one email account auto syncing at the moment and all the useless features off and memory resident apps disabled.

Usage until now has been tweaking the system, installing and testing apps, copying data from other devices through WiFi, surfing the Web, Twitter, Facebook, various benchmarks, testing a few video clips and some YouTubing. No gaming yet.

Before sleep I read ebooks or surf the web in bed at 0% brightness.

Didn't test playing full movies yet.

This is my first tablet so I can't really compare to other ones, but compared to my phone or laptop from my workplace I'm pretty happy.

If you compare the G Pad's screen to other Android tabs of the same size I'd say it's pretty amazing when it comes to definition (most 7-8" are 1280xsomething) and viewing angles so it's to be expected that the screen will eat a lot of juice IMO.
[G Pad 8.3 General] Mindspin_311:
I'm seeing about 5 hours of screen per charge right now
[G Pad 8.3 General] joshuadjohnson22:
About a day with heavy use, many days on standby/standby and light to regular use. It is good enough!
[G Pad 8.3 General] SCWells72:
For those of you on KitKat, either GPE or one of the custom ROMs, have you tried using ART instead of Dalvik? If so, does that seem to make any difference in battery life? I have a GPE but also use Xposed Framework modules heavily. Unfortunately it isn't currently compatible with ART and I haven't disabled it to try switching. I've read that ART can have a significant positive impact on battery life, so I thought I inquire here first.
[G Pad 8.3 General] naruto.ninjakid:
Hey guys was wondering is this average , how long does the charger take to charge ? Device was at 51 charged to 62 in 30 minutes and with screen off for a little while it dropped to 41 ? Is this an anomoly ? I hope I don't have a bad battery I just RMA'd my previous device. What do you guys think. ?
[G Pad 8.3 General] joshuadjohnson22:
That is odd. If I were you I would give it a few charge cycles. Make sure you don't have any apps waking your device from deep sleep. If it is still being weird after about 3 or 4 charge cycles then I would worry. It took a few charge cycles for my battery life to set in
[G Pad 8.3 General] naruto.ninjakid:
Thanks

OK I will do so. It was so weird. Im probably going to root right now and make a nandroid backup.
[G Pad 8.3 General] alakiha:
I was wondering should I consider this good battery life or bad?!

I am on latest Mahdi Rom.
[G Pad 8.3 General] ikenvape:
What was your screen on time?
[G Pad 8.3 General] alakiha:
5 hours
[G Pad 8.3 General] ikenvape:
That's not bad for stock then. Latest 10b update seems to drain more but it could be just me. With aosp or aokp you can reach higher like in the 7.5 hr range
[G Pad 8.3 General] babarasghar:
EDIT: wrong section
[G Pad 8.3 General] sleekmason:
LG GPad v10 GPE My first go at this gives me 5.5 hours screen time at 75% brightness, 48 hours device on time, with 8 % remaining. This includes 1/2 hour of asphalt 8, and about three hours of dolphin browser, 1 hour of facebook, and then just other small stuff; weather, wordpress, etc... I also have tablet talk on all the time.

Quite acceptable to me. I don't ever let it get below 20%, usually charge every other day at some point.
[G Pad 8.3 General] hikouka71:
anyone having any issues charging? i've had the pad plugged in for well over 9 hours now (it was at 15%) and it just ticked up from 91 to 92%

i'm using a 2.1 amp charger i picked up on amazon that juices up my galaxy s3 from dead to full in about 2 hours
[G Pad 8.3 General] tnsantos:
What about battery life with 100% brightness and netflix?
[G Pad 8.3 General] mug2k:
Is it likely the battery will be better if and when the G Pad gets an official Kitkat update? I've red Kitkat is 'lighter' and better for battery duration in general.
[G Pad 8.3 General] SCWells72:
I have a GPE which is running the most pure version of KitKat possible (well, technically now it's rooted and running a bunch of stuff like Xposed Framework modules, etc.), and the battery life isn't much improved (if at all) over the LGE version. I'm seeing better results using things like Greenify to hibernate apps that would otherwise wake the device (and for which I don't care about notifications during sleep) and the custom 510 kernel with the minimum clock speed dialed all the way down. Nonetheless, when I'm actively using the G Pad, I can almost see the battery draining on-the-fly. I still don't understand why this tablet has such short battery life relative to others in its general class. It has respectable hardware, but that includes a decent battery relative to its screen and CPUs.
[G Pad 8.3 General] mug2k:
Maybe the implementations of the stock and GPE OS's are just horribly optimized or maybe not at all. I mean 4600mAh is quite a meaty battery and should perform much better than it does so it doesn't really add up. I've read that the blue line problem is due to overheating so it seem that this tablet gets quite hot easily which lead me to think something is getting throttled easily compared to other tablets.

Here's hoping it's an underlying software fault by LG that can be rectified at some point.
[G Pad 8.3 General] s.illes79:
I'm quite happy with battery life

5.40h screen on time with 3d13h standby, still 10% left :)

Stock 4.2.2, with settings:

- disabled location services

- wifi auto disconnect unless on charger

- no qpair ( sucks 1% battery / hour)

with these setting I loose less than 1% per day in standby, which is excellent.

just want some info such as battery life,speed,items made better or worse for that matter

and to the mod who keeps merging these threads please don't as all those guys in that other thread are talking about is odin this and odin that basically how to defeat knox and such

I haven't noticed much but it sure isn't faster battery life didn't get better but after factory restore I lost my navigation icon

what have you noticed?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kodochax:
It feels better back like the first day I got it. My phone before the ota was a lot slower. I did benchmarks a couple weeks before the ota and my numbers seemed weirdly low, like sequential read was 5mb now it's 26, I'm guessing that's trim doing it's job? One thing I don't like is that we can't swipe between tabs in settings, it never bothered me in phone since I didn't make calls daily,but I go to settings multiple times a day and I keep trying to swipe. Maybe I'll get use to it. Also I love the new lockscreen (I use a pin setup) it's cleaner and with the xposed module we can choose our own lockscreen widgets.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pierrekid:
Yea seriously mods stop merging these threads all the time. Not everything needs to be consolidated into one thread. You are actually making it difficult for users to find answers to questions when you try to force ALL the info into one thread. A better idea would be to leave a poll that asks if the current thread should be merged, left as is or deleted. That way its not just you guys randomly deciding what is important and more us users making the judgment call.

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] its_ja10:
agreed
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Asquared:
Things I've noticed:

1. Apps update and open faster

2. LTE seems faster

3. Slighty more and quicker battery drain (using ZeroLemon battery)

4. Can now close all instances of stock browser windows completely (no window left open)

5. Stock 4.3 ROM seems to take up about 200-250MB more RAM

6. Ability in Task Manager to "launch by default" function; helps apps from asking you each you time you use them which other app you want to open them with (eg. Gallery, Photos, Skype, Internet, etc.)

7. Ability to change size of text in text messaging by using up or down volume button

8. Additional folder under /storage called "emulated" -- don't know anything about Android OS, but appears to be duplicate prior operating environment under 4.2.2, and takes up about 2.11BG of space in System (internal) storage.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ChadH42:
I have a consistent problem with Philz recovery since MJA & MK2 were installed, it won't restore my data partition. I would like to go back to TWRP 6.3.0.1 which worked flawlessly prior to MJA and the Knox changes. I have tried restoring System & Boot partitions with Philz then flash TWRP and restore the data partition but I get bootloops when I restart.

My question is has anyone been successful in using TWRP to flash, backup & Recover the S4 with MJA/MK2 installed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] soundimpressions:
I installed it with GooManager. Seems to work fine. I have the latest 4.3 MK2 installed. Now if I can just have my wifi back.....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] leaderbuilder:
All depends on the ROM you're using and how you're setting up you backup partitions.

There are plenty of walkthroughs on how to use Philz or the lates TWRP in the specific ROM threads.

bought htc one three monhs ago...but it has overheating problem when its used(while playing games or music on speaker) for about half an hour or so or while charging and reaches bery high temperatures of abt 45-47 C... is it a normal problem on all htc one devices and doesit have to do anything with the amount of space filled in the harddisk of the phone ....also what is the battery life of the phone??? mine makes 8-10 hours....its urgent plz help...:(
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
There is no problem having 47C when playing games. There is no relation between disk space and CPU temp. 8-10 hours of battery life means nothing without info about display usage, wifi usage, mobile data usage. Mine can easily makes 2 days when I'm not using it at all. I really doubt it will last more than 8 hours playing games. Hope it help

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
20-25% of battery drop under heavy usage for an hour looks fine imo. You should take a screenshot of your battery graph and post it here so it will be easier to determine if 10 hours of battery life is normal in your case.
