Someone here gets it.

Yeah, the phone was asleep a lot. Big whoop. I used it like I normally would have used my Rezound. I got over 10x the battery life with my NORMAL usage. I'm pretty pleased with that.
[G2 General] ffejy462:
I think it's impressive either way.
[G2 General] khaytsus:
My Galaxy Note I could get 14 hours of it with light usage. G2 same? 60 or more.

I don't get why people have to immediately start saying that it's not normal usage or even cheating, etc..
[G2 General] kewkie:
96 hours and 6% were used from the screen (so 2h 23m)... theres nothing special about it, really.

Its a great standy/idle time but.. not even worth to compare with a normal/power user and not even worth to make a thread about it...
[G2 General] Fastbird:
And why can I not be a "normal" user. I used that phone exactly like I used my last phone. Check in on social media from time to time, read forums for a little bit, talk some, use maps, etc. I just don't rely on it as heavily as others. But any time you have a smart phone with 4G that you can toss in your pocket and use for two plus days reliably, that's something worth noting. My HTC Rezound if left to sit in standby and never touch wouldn't go 12 hours or so before being dead.

So yeah, I think it's worth noting. Not everyone has to use their phone as their primary means of everything electronic.
[G2 General] kewkie:
well, 96 hours = are 4 days.. and in this 4 days the screen was on for like over 2 hours. I dont know but that makes no sense fro me.. for me it actually looked like you just waked up your phone to check the battery :D

I mean, its cool for you that you reached such time, but why making a new thread and show some nonsense?

On my last cycle i watched it was like 8 hours screen on time within like 51 hours from 100% to 3%.. did i make a new thread? nope.
[G2 General] Surfman423:
I'm throwing a bull**** flag on your 8 hours of screen time with 51 hours total.....no screen shot showing it then it didn't happen.
[G2 General] kewkie:
I love your madness xD I said "LIKE" and I know it and I'm fine with it. I don't need to show my epenis with some screenshots :) believe it or not. Not my problem I will live with an awesome battery life with MY usage, that's why I don't show such stuff

But yet you take the time to trash talk someone who is pleased with his and was excited enough about it that he took the time to share it with others. Now it is my madness that you speak of???
[G2 General] kewkie:
It's more like spamming the forum. And don't care about my time i have enough to throw out

Gesendet von meinem LG-D802 mit Tapatalk
[G2 General] player911:
I think Kewkie is the only one wasting everyone's time. These threads are created for researchers who plan on buying. Finding a forum with tons of positive feedback isn't a waste of everyone's time. My galaxy Nexus had 2 hours screen on time but would be completely dead in 8 hours. So to have the same screen on time and it go another 90 hours! That's thread worthy.

Maybe instead of bashing, you could throw up your own screenshots. Lots of forums have uptime battery threads.

If we don't have one, maybe the OP could edit the title and make an official battery posting thread. They are handy to have to compare roms and various versions. For example I just got the 12B Verizon update and my battery seems to have taken a hit. It would be nice to have before and after results.
[G2 General] XERO_Racer:
This +1

Let the OP express what his feedback is towards the phones battery life

[MENTION=225651]op[/MENTION] Nice stats you have there thats like what 4 days without a charger and almost 2 hours and 30mins of SOT is quite impressive IMO

coming from the Note II i thought battery life was king till i bought this phone

See my post, im not hesitant to show my stats

[G2 General] djraimondi:
I find it interesting to say the least. I have an old motorola droid RAZR HD. When I charge it and just leave it for my alarm clock it will get 10+ days easy of idle time. However android os isn't the highest. Idk why but it seems the g2 android os is always a significant portion of the battery. Wonder what it could be.
[G2 General] ldorbin:
knock on raises android system. disable that and android system drops
[G2 General] vPro97:
It's the knock on feature. If you disable it, your G2 can live for a month
[G2 General] kewkie:
Maybe i do, actually i dont care, and for some guys maybe im telling the truth.

So you will tell us, that its fine when a guy is doing an research for the battery and finds this thread and thinks "wow 100 hours batteryife, damn thats sick!" so what if the guy who did the research is an poweruser and just can reach like 50? 55? hours because his screen time is 3-4 times more than the OP's one?

And i dont post sreens because i dont take a screenshot of any loading cycle and fap on it. I use my phone as an smarthphone and dont trim it to a useless phone without mobile data, without syncing, without getting messages from social media, whatsapp, viber, whatever.

So if you think im wasting others time, dont answer me or stop reading my posts :)

Just cause im telling the truth doesnt mean im a troll or whatever.

And 96 hours with 2h 23m screen on time is like, put the phone into a room and let it idle. I could make such test and i bet i can get even more hours, but why should i waste 5-6 days without using my smartphone as an smartphone, to show how great my batterylife is? No, sorry.. im fine when i can use my phone for like 2 days with a great screen on time and use my smartphone probably.

Why i post here then? Well, to open "researchers" eyes and those guys should look at the screen on time and dont get blended by the thread title.
[G2 General] Fastbird:
Not all of us are attached at the hip to our phone. Perhaps we have the phone as a convenience only. Ever think about that? And where did I ever say that I turned everything off? I used 2x Battery and was fetching updates every 15 minutes. I'd check it and respond to anything necessary. Not everyone is a power user. My example posted here is to show what a light usage schedule could potentially last for. That is relevant for some people. To sit here and act like no one else's opinions matter is just asinine and closed minded. If this is considered spamming a forum then I'll just take my thoughts and insights elsewhere.

[G2 General] rquiett:
I for one am glad you shared it. Brings back memories of old phones and how pathetic battery life was compared to the g2
[G2 General] mrm43:
I too appreciate your share OP.
[G2 General] ikenvape:
Yes this thread is appreciated. An s4 with 2.5 hours screen time with 95+ hours would be long dead.
[G2 General] Surfman423:
You sir are an ignorant jackass and a tool. I for one am glad that this great site draws members like you occasionally. It really reminds us why we should appreciate the members who offer open minded comments and are supportive of the hobby. Thanks for stopping by.
[G2 General] jhorn85:
That's amazing I love this phone
[G2 General] robin786:
Cool standby time! I did 7 hours screen on time, the 1st day I bought the phone. After doing some snooping around, I found that letting the phone dry up too much & charging back to 100% actually does more damage to the battery. So, I've been bump charging between 40 - 80% & still, the batter life is AMAZING!

[G2 General] geoff5093:
I can go all day and stay at 100% when in airplane mode and never use my phone :D
[G2 General] _RaZoR_:
This are my stats. I still have 10 % but I'l put on charger (don't want to stress the battery).

Brightness is 50% auto. Auto-sync off wifi and data mostly off. I aldo disabled some of lg background servicess.

[G2 General] Fastbird:
It works well for me. I don't do a whole lot on my phone, and could easily live with a basic phone, but I like having the smart phone features when I want/need them. This phone has been far more than what I ever expected in terms of reliability and battery life coming from that no battery life having to carry a spare battery or two with me for the day Rezound.
[G2 General] KennethTang:
Coming from an international note 2 lte, im astounded at how ut manages to come on par with and i would say surpasses the batt life of the already outstanding note 2..

Started my day at 0530, lasted till 1630 the next day. Nearly 36 hours!
[G2 General] Dirtyzecrets:
100 hours is nice. I am also experiencing insane battery with all of the custom roms I hav tried..

Using greenify and bootmanager also and delete 100 apk/bloats/things I do not use...
[G2 General] Fastbird:
Slight update, didn't grab screen shots. I was at 25% battery remaining, 50 hours and ?? minutes on battery, 4 hours and 13 minutes screen time. Probably would have made 60+ hours with 5 hours screen time. I call that winning.
[G2 General] Mattecko99:
I'm only getting about 4hrs. I want more screen on time!

I seriously think that something went wrong with my battery counter. I didn't remember when was the last time I charged this phone. :o
[G2 General] gull_s_777:
Amazing stats

Screen looks really efficient on this phone. Never taking huge chunk of battery.

But Android System usage seems on higher side. Is it because of Knock on???

Has anyone tried a cycle without knockon and see if it brings Adroid System usage down???
[G2 General] archzz:
I seriously doubt that you didn't put the phone on a charger during those 90+ hours. Impossible to get ~200 hrs of standby time + 12hrs of screen on. The battery is good, but not that good.
[G2 General] khaytsus:
No, it's because he's barely using the phone at all in this case. 5 hours screen-on, but not sure what he's doing ;)
[G2 General] queerquirks:
Battery stats don't get reset until it hits 90.
[G2 General] Sfkn2:
You guys bought a phone but don't use it?

Honestly I use my phone the way I want to, location on, nfc basically everything on with brightness at 60% auto. and I can still pull 5h of SoT out of this bad boy lol I came from a galaxy nexus and you basically have to shut things off to get decent battery life...NOT ON THIS MUAHAHA
[G2 General] gull_s_777:
I don't think that stock battery monitor is giving out correct readings.

how is it possible that i have 7h screen on time in one day and still screen takes only 22% while Android System takes 18% and Android OS takes 13% ???

I would rather look at GSAM stats if i want detailed info.
[G2 General] gunlock4real:
KitKat fixed that, try for yourself
[G2 General] gull_s_777:
will try once the update comes :)

Pretty average user here. Not into root/flash stuff.

Just use my mobile for Tapatalk/Browsing/PDF reading mostly and i am happy as long as it gives good battery backup while doing these things. :D

I hope kitkat update won't touch the great battery life on this mobile.

Just picked up a Droid DNA off craigslist, does not have a sim card installed and i do not plan on putting one in. I bought it for use on wifi,play games and music. I am not going to use it as an actual phone. can anyone lead me to a current root method, would prefer a one touch or something simular, but ill take what i can get. lol.. also am i going to run into any problems not having a sim card installed? It is working fine now, just not sure how it will react to a factory reset or a root. thanks all

Need to know what firmware you are on to help

To find this go to Settings >About >Software information >More >Build number

If you are on 3.xx you will use Rumrunner to S-off and unlock http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2559232

If you are on 2.xx you will use Moonshine to S-off and unlock http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2314771

Not having an installed SIM shouldn't cause any issues.

Have fun. :good:

how can i update that

thanks for the help.. not the problem is that my pc will not recognise the phone no matter what i do, usb debugging is checked, but i plug the phone into pc i get nothing, i have tried 4 different usb ports and 3 different cords.. the phone will show charging, but the pc will not to anything.

i tried with and without htc sync installed
[HTC Droid DNA] sdamark:
If you download PDANet on your computer it will install the correct drivers. Be sure to uninstall prior to Moonshine [uninstalling will leave the drivers].

Hope this helps, enjoy :)

I went to build number and clicked on it and it did nothing, didnt hilight or anything to show it recieved any input from me.. i still pressed it about 200 times.. still nothing

installed pda net and still nothing when i connect it to the computer..
[HTC Droid DNA] sdamark:
What operating system is on you computer? Windows 8.1 can cause problems.
[HTC Droid DNA] snakebyt:
win 7

and my build number is 1.15.605.4 cl123160 release-keys would that be causing the problem
[HTC Droid DNA] sdamark:
Hmmm, Okay. So when you go to "my computer" you don't see it as a drive at all?

Make sure your antivirus or firewall are not blocking it.

I'm trying to remember 1.xx software on my phone, been at least a year. Go to settings >security is there something in there like device administrators?
[HTC Droid DNA] snakebyt:
It does have that option..i can chose android dwvice manager, agv antitheift,and air droid
[HTC Droid DNA] sdamark:
Try Device Manager and see if that helps, and again make sure your antivirus or firewall are not blocking.
[HTC Droid DNA] snakebyt:
yes, when i plug in the phone to the PC it does nothing, no noise like when i plug in my ipod or a thumb drive or anything and it does not show up in my computer at all.

I have turned off the firewall on the PC and also turned off the antivirus.. will try turning off the antivirus on the phone and see if that helps
[HTC Droid DNA] sdamark:
Sorry, but before we can go any further, you are going to have to get your computer to see your phone. I'm not sure what the problem is, but it seems hardware related. Every computer I've ever plugged my phone into started loading drivers and asked what I would like to do with this device [always select open and view files]. Be sure you are using a good cable [even though I've not seen a bad one, I have heard of them]. Try using another computer. Once you get the computer to recognize your phone, everything else will be simple.

Once again, have fun, and good luck. :)
[HTC Droid DNA] snakebyt:
I backed	upeverything I needed	to save using airdroid	andgoing to do a factory reset and see if that helps anything

If you are still on software version 1.15.605.4 look for the S-OFF method called Facepalm it will work for 1.15.605.4.

You need to know and understand ADB and FASTBOOT commands they will be your lifeline if you screw up.
[HTC Droid DNA] finanandroid:
ADB

Connect the phone to ur computer usb

To make sure your ADB is working hold the Win + R keys and then type in ‘cmd’ in the Run Window. Command Prompt should now be opened.

Type in ‘adb devices’ if your phone is connected via USB and you have the necessary drivers, you will be greeted with the ID of your phone.

like FA45897540 if not you need to set the Path Variable.
[HTC Droid DNA] snakebyt:
thanks for all the help.. i am going to do some reading and research..and i guess i need to set the path variable..

Just a question.. why wont my phone update when i go check for updates? is it because i am on wifi and not have a sim card installed? What if i install a working and active sim card from another device.. would i be able to use software update from my device then?
