Seems very solid, 5h SOT. I might be joining your community soon :)
[G 2014 General] justinvt:
On average usage it will last for one day

The battery life is better than what I expected. It has dual sim and a large screen but still manages around a day on battery.:)
[G 2014 General] Nielo TM:
Managed to get slightly over 7 hours before the phone shut off.

GPS: Power saving mode

Screen: Brightness set to indoor conditions (manual / below 10%)

ROM: Default

Battery Saver: Disabled

Battery saving apps: None installed

WiFi and Sync: Always enabled

Screen Time Out: 2 minutes after inactivity

Usage: Mainly Facebook, Chrome, WhatsApp, few YouTube vids and Google Docs. Nothing intensive.

Phone charged from 0-100% in under 2 hours without entering the OS. I used Anker Power IQ 40W 5-port desktop charger and Moto's USB cable. Back of the phone remained cool throughout. Could have squeezed more life out of the battery by setting screen time-out to 30 seconds, but I'm happy with 7 hours. Used to get between 3.30 to 4 hours on my NEXUS 4.

Moto G has one of the most (if not the most) efficient SoC (especially the CPU core). So the biggest improvement to battery life comes from adjusting the screen manually. Don't use auto brightness if possible and keep the brightness low without sacrificing image quality. Mine is set to below 10%.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask :good:

Impressive

WOW, that's really impressive. Yes, auto brightness can drain the battery soon. I use auto brightness whenever I'm outdoors for a couple of hours and I get 5+ hrs of usage. Very happy with the battery life. :D
[G 2014 General] rapha.194:
Over someone?

I'm in doubt between G and the new Moto Moto X (2014)

Who has better screen time on 3G / 4G will take my money.

Very happy with battery life. Very first charge, just received phone in the afternoon and was fully charged by 3:30 or 4. Downloading applications, syncing accounts, installed GTA:SA and played a tiny bit(used a controller through OTG) snapped pics, took some slo no videos and auto brightness. Texting, IM'ing, some YouTube videos, etc and also music, which sounds amazing through the speakers!
[G 2014 General] vinaybaboo:
Not bad at all
[G 2014 General] vivek_p08:
Battery is not bad. I was using Wi-Fi n downloaded applications. Still I got it for 20 hrs n had around 15% left.
[G 2014 General] Nielo TM:
Yeah I was kinda amazed. Wasn't expecting 7 hours. Expect the battery to increase even further when Android L is released
[G 2014 General] mnishamk:
Five hours screen time
[G 2014 General] devgsingh:
Pretty good for Android phone

My new Moto G has been amazingly good with respective to Battery backup. :good: When phone is idle... it is alove for almost 1 and a half day... Amazing.. I also had Lumia 520.. It could last for 2 days and still have juice left.. Very impressed..
[G 2014 General] eksasol:
I find the battery life to be average, I get about 3.5 to 4 hours of screen on time. Which is what most phones get, but the original G could go for 5hours. And by about 7pm, my battery run out.

You could get 5hours screen on time if you stay indoor and connected to WiFi all the time and on 50% screen brightness, but this is not for someone who is moving about, being outdoor and not connected to WiFi during work.
[G 2014 General] observingi:
Battery is pathetic...The phone was in deep sleep for 8 hours. Battery consumed while in deep sleep, was 1% per hour :(

Wid moderate usage my brother easily makes it through the day
[G 2014 General] id.liam.elgoog:
wow awesome screen on up to 6 hour,
[G 2014 General] Nielo TM:
Update: While at home connected to Wi-Fi, I can easily get over 7 hours. While out and about, I get around 5-6 hours. Massive upgrade over my NEXUS 4 for sure.
[G 2014 General] Nielo TM:
Another update: Moto managed to stay alive for extra hour compared to before (see post #8). Settings and environment were the same . Phone remained in-doors. The only difference is the "On Battery Time" (34H:09M vs 17H:45M).

Since this thread is related to Battery, I want to ask one question...

This phone has built-in battery which can not be replaced.

What is to be done after couple of years when battery start dying?
[G 2014 General] agentaaron:
upgrade to the Moto G 2015 or 2016

...Seriously though, I am sure you can find a replacement battery online and a DIY video on Youtube...but for the cost of the phone, why bother...specs on the device will most likely improve every year.
[G 2014 General] RmatriX1218:
Seriously...I never knew that, [emoji12]

Fun apart...

Just wanted to know weather company offers replacement or new battery in such cases....,.,.?
[G 2014 General] Kunal5894:
Yes, they do.
[G 2014 General] :
Sorry for an old quote

But isnt SOT way too much?
[G 2014 General] bhavin192:
Yup it is. I was also thinking same

Normally I get 4.5hrs with greenify and disabled some system apps.
[G 2014 General] alirezaircn:
Below 10%? I know it's only your impression sharing with others and thanks but I bought my phone to use and enjoy it. A brightness of 10% means too dark screen....
[G 2014 General] Gabboplano:
if you stay indoord with closed windows and no lights then below 10% it's fine :P
[G 2014 General] alirezaircn:
Haha, so funny. :D
[G 2014 General] Nielo TM:
It's perfectly fine indoors. Maybe you have a different screen? I do have to temporarily up the brightness outside
[G 2014 General] RichardRaquel04:
Newbie here!

Got this phone 2 days ago, juicing out 4 hours SOT. For those who updated their device to LOLLIPOP, is there any significant change to battery life?? Thanks!

[G 2014 General] theprincemoh:
guys

take this advice for one day only and tell me what is the difference on the battery usage

just make the network on 2g only instead of 3g

this used to give me 3 times the battery usage with 3g ;)

but i am talking generally

i still didn't get the phone

but i got this method with my huawei ascend g600

and i got around 6 days of phone without charging

and yesterday got 6 hours screen on with automatic brightness and wifi on
[G 2014 General] wrighar:
12+ days??

Probably would have gone to just about 14 days if left to go flat.

[G 2014 General] FragileBibi:
Low battery runtime

How can you reach this amount of battery runtime? :(

My Moto G XT1068 is dropping so fast. I remove it 7am from the charger - chatting two up to three hours screen on time with my boyfriend in Skype + using Swiftkey to replace stock android keyboard.

12pm, my battery was at 30% only.

Facts:

• 4.4.4 KitKat - stock rom

• KXB21.85-27 build

• Pinkman kernel

• Most used apps: Skype, Swiftkey & Greenify

• Rooted with SuperSU

• GPU at max. 320 Mhz, CPU at max. 998 Mhz.

• Using powersave mode for multicore CPU's from Trickster Mod -> Set at "2"

• TWRP 2.8

• Dalvik

• Display brightness: Always at lowest / automatic

• GPS off

• Synchronization off

• No weather app

• Battery drain whilst display is off: extremely minimal (almost nothing.. maybe 1% each two hours)

Could it be, that I have a "broken" battery? Since some people here in the thread post something over 5 hours screen on time. :(

Would like to see how I can test my battery better to figure out, if it is working properly & similar to most of statistics posted here.

Regards

Saskia
[G 2014 General] Gerriitw:
[MENTION=6183365]FragileBibi[/MENTION] i think it is not broken... for a 2080 mAh battery and you skype like 3 hours. its just normal, skype is a heavy task on android, you must know that and its quite decent that it reach the 30℅ on 12pm
[G 2014 General] ch05626:
One day I didn't use my phone that much and the results were very good. Normally battery lasts just for a day....
[G 2014 General] FragileBibi:
Thank you very much for this quick answer. :)

It is just.. I feel like, Skype is not such a heavy program to use, since it really runs incredibly smooth on my Moto, instead of my Galaxy Ace 3 which I had before.

& the battery log also doesn't show so much impact of it. Only around 5% - 10%. Could it be, that the battery log is a little buggy then?

The display eats the most of course.. After this, there is Swiftkey with max. 10%, mobile data standby 4% and the last, with 3% average, are Google Play applications.

PS: I did a test. Without doing anything & just keeping the display on for a few hours, I lost 10% per hour whilst the screen is on. Skype was running right in the background.

Unfortunately, as soon as I begin to type messages, my battery starts dropping like crazy. The same with listening to music. But it doesn't drop too much. I use the Shuttle player.

Maybe Swiftkey has a major battery drain issue? It just doesn't show in the log, that it eats so much. Maybe this is a bug? :o

Someone else using Swiftkey & can tell me some opinions about it & the battery impact?

Oh.. I forgot to mention. Whenever I am outside, I use 3G instead of 2G. Otherwise, Skype doesn't send the messages so fast.. only with a delay of 5 minutes.
[G 2014 General] Gabboplano:
nah, it's fine really, I charge it until 7am then go to school and by 14pm when I get back home my battery is 70% max, with less than 1.5 hours SOT

all the guys with 5 or 6 or whatever hours of SOT in here got it by staying inside, with low brightness, 2G, WiFi and everything off, which is kinda useless because you have chargers in your house so why would you want infinite battery lol.

IMHO all the screenshots gotten by staying in your bed all day with everything off don't matter, what matters is heavy usage in the outside world (some people in here may not know what it is Kappa), with 3G on

it's like trying a pair of shoes in your hallway and saying they're comfortable, you'll never know if they really are until you use them to walk for an entire day, on any surface
[G 2014 General] love@hate:
I can confidentky say that in my usage ,, i avg getting 5hrs SOT with smthing around 24 hrs cycle.. although battery performance depend on different different usage pattern. I keep google now off and location off most of the times,, only when i need them ,and wifi on all the time with fb, gmail ,email , whtspp ,, 2-3 news app syncing at about 30 min
[G 2014 General] bhs2x:
I am not using the stock kernel, I have flashed pINKman+ kernel and I am getting good battery life.

SOT - 2hrs+

Brightness - 20%

Wifi - Always On (sometimes when outdoor 3G)

Here is the screenshot.
[G 2014 General] StariX37:
I like to use my phone non stop...from a complete charge to complete drain without stopping...i use wifi most of the time.

But now i m posting the screen shots of my battery usage over 2G...a complete battery usage. Listening to music ..surfing the net..whatsapp...xda...etc etc..

I use pinkman kernel..and have tweaked the kernel according to my usage...& i get around 6 hrs 30 min of SOT everytime on 2G & sometimes even more..max 7 hrs 15 mins.

When the battery is at 50% it lasts for almost 2 full HD 1080 p movies ...
[G 2014 General] StariX37:
Maybe you should tweak ur governor settings ...using trickster .

I also use trickster mod with pinkman kernel...& i get around 6 hrs + SOT everytime.

With just 50% battery remaining ..i watched to complete 1080 p HD movies..So u can make a guess ..about the life of the battery.

I use Ondemand governor & Noop scheduler ..for regular work.

And for gaming i use Interactive Governor & Row scheduler.

Governor & Schedules play a vital role in the contribution towards battery health.
[G 2014 General] FragileBibi:
I used the "gaming" setting all the time. I just checked it in Trickster Mod. My CPU Governor was set at "Interactive" - & my I/O scheduler was set at "ROW".

Trying it with Ondemand + Noop now. I will use my phone today pretty often, too. I'm gonna post if my battery increased or not. :)

Hey,

Bro I noticed you mentioned gaming through joystick (controller) via OTG. Would you be kind enough to answer the following:

1. You are using Moto G 2nd Gen (purchased through Flipkart in India) -- Please confirm.

2. Please post a picture(s) of your phone with game controller connected to it... Can you like do a short review of using Game controller with Moto G

2nd Gen. People have posted stuff in YouTube addressing the OTG functionality of this phone with pen drives, keyboard mouse, external HD... But none have review the game controller with this phone...

Please do this review and post some pics here.

Some issues that you can address:

--Which games support it.

--Battery consumption while using it.

-- Performance related issues (like can the same controller be used on a computer).

--Any other matter which you consider fit.

Thanks in advance and keep up the good work. :good:

Well, many people I know, still prefer KK to LP.

What, with all the memory leaks and lags on 5.0.2,stock KK is more stable and faster then LP (LP 5.1 for M-g2 still not released)

Personally, I prefer KK too because of its rock solid stability and xposed frameworks

Holy sweet dancing jesus christ !! :fingers-crossed:

That is insane.

I keep my brightness at 25-30 % but the best I could achieve was 3 days, and I felt like a wizard. :silly:
