How often do you charge your nexus per day? - Nexus 4 General

Like the title said. How often do you charge your Nexus 4 each day. Pleas take into consideration that you let your N4 run at least under 30% before charging. If you can go on without recharging your battery for more than one day please post the numbers of days.

I charge once a day. I get 12-16 hours of battery life from what I consider an average day attached are screenshots from yesterdays battery life

Once, when I go to bed - the same as I did my SGS2.

3 times, but I just got it 2 days ago. It might be that new phone usage spike. Still, I have serious doubts that it will go to less than 2 charges per day

I chose less than 1 because so far I have not gone to bed with it at less than 30%.

Yep, same. I've even had 40 hours out of it once, but only because I was in meetings for 2 days and the screen was off for 8 hours at a time. that was fully charged to completely dead.

Really happy with the battery life so far, I was being conservative on my last phone with battery however now I've got this I don't really think about it so much.
Charge when I go to bed.

I got my Nexus on Tuesday night and I'm only just charging it for the first time now.
I'm only a light user though.

Once - Over night
Last's all day wifi on 8hrs - BT 1hr - texting & a few calls

Depends. When I'm at home I charge once per day, but when in at work it just sits on my desk charging. I normally use the phone more at work then I do at home, so it's hard for me to tell if I could really get through a whole day work my normal usage. I have done about 12-14 hours or so with a couple hours of screen time and still had 15% left. To me, the battery has been about 25 percent better than the gnex.

I still love my Nexus 4 and it performs well still but the battery life is now beyond dire, charging it 3 times a day.
Is it worth paying a firm to replace the battery? My thoughts are that I can just put that money towards an inevitable replacement in the near future.

I just replaced the battery in my N4. It was simple, requiring only a small torx driver and a small Phillips, plus a pry tool. The battery was cheap on Amazon and says it is an LG battery.
The old battery would no longer charge at all.

I still get 4h of SoT, and 10-12 hours battery time - so I am still quite happy with my N4. Unfortunately the camera really sucks (even more now) so I will replace the beloved N4 soon.

Yeah, I am having intermittent camera issues, a lot of photos come out black even in good light.
It's another excuse to upgrade I guess, has been a great phone though.

I think I should try the battery swap thing, mine just cannot get more than an hour and a half of SOT no matter what combination of ROM, Kernel and Android version I try, and using it during my daily commute means I arrive at my workplace at already 60% even if I'm on extremely low screen brightness. Greenify doesn't help either because it's the actual screen on what kills it, as long as the screen is off the battery drain is negligible.
Worst part is that every single battery out there is a fake, just with a very high-quality copied sticker on it. AFAIK the only way to get a new original battery is through LG and for a price you'd be better just getting a new Moto E 3rd gen for a little bit more and call it a day.

[Q] Bad Battery Life?

Is the O4X's battery life as bad as gsmarena is saying? Just a little over 4 hours of video playback and 4 hours of web browsing?
If you read the comments of the blog article on it, you will see that there is a lot of discussion over the brightness.
By comparison to the SGS3 and One X, the Optiums has a much brighter screen which will mean a lower battery life. Of course if they set all the phones to the same actual brightness (not percentage) the numbers would be different.
I am currently waiting delivery of my 4X, but after I have conditioned the battery (let the handset configure itself to the battery), I'll definitely be seeing what its capable of.
Alright thanks, I hope you'll be able to get back to this thread when you find out more.
I've had mine since friday and I think I've charged it about 3 or 4 times now and the battery life is getting better. It lasted only about 2 hours when I first charged it and started it for the first time. But I was using it constantly.
Today I started it in the morning (fully charged) before going to work and now, 10 pm, it's been on for about 16 hours and I have 40% left. Data have been on all day and I've been signed in to Google Talk all day, I've browsed the web for a total of aprox. 1 hour, used the camera, tested the GPS and been chatting with a friend on talk. So I'm pretty satisfied so far.
It's better than my O2X.

That's good to hear. How many hours was the screen on?
I'm not sure unfortunately. But i would say between 2-4 hours.
Edit: okay it was a little less than I thought. The. Battery usage in settings says the screen have been on for two and a half hours. And that's including the time I have used after 40%. I'm down to 25% now.
My Battery lasts after a few cycles all over two Days with medium Usage (No gaming - WA, FB, eMail)........
i ca go for 1 day, with a bit gaming and usual use.
I have slightly longer battery life on my 4X HD than on my Nexus S when using the phones in the same way (casual use). But I think there is room for improvment on the battery life with more optimized software either from LG or when we start seeing custom roms for this device.
I charged mine to 100% and just dropped 8% in 25 minutes, 20 minutes of that was driving and not using the phone, no Bluetooth or anything like that. The battery life is shocking and can't wait for extended ones to become available. Besides that I truly love this phone

How many complete charge cycles have you done?
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
When I got my p880 I did 3 battery cycles, and I could only get about 8 hours of standby alone, no other use at all. I then did a factory reset and formatting of the memory card, which I hadn't done when I switched from my old SE X8. Now my p880 can easily go more than a day with some gaming, calls, browsing etc. My guess is that old android files on the memory card was the reason for the bad battery life. No expert though, maybe someone else has a better idea.
Today I tried the Chrome browser, and it really drained the battery. Something like 20% after browsing for 15 mins. Anybody else have experience with this?
Overall I'm really happy with this phone, great screen, fluid operation, good battery.
I've had battery drainage issues with the chrome browser as well. Even in stand-by the browser would drain the battery. It has only happened like two times for me in the four weeks i've had the phone, so not a biggy but still something you should be aware of, if you experience battery drainage issues

I'm totaly happy with the battery... getting at least a day and a half with normal use.
after updating its definitely drainng fast.
No drain here. I get 10-12 hours a day with heavy use and easily a day with moderate usage. Was roughly the same before update as well.

4326mAh battery, 2A charger, 2.1 hours theoretically. Realistically, 2.5-3.0 if pretty much empty.
If you're using a non standard cable or charger, who knows what the charger is actually outputting. If you're charging from your computer USB Port, that's 500mAh, so 8.6+ hours. Some random phone charger, probably 1000mAh, 4.3+ hours, etc.
The brightness of the display adds to some of the drain I notice, when possible I keep mine somewhat on the dimside, obviously if I'm in an area of bright light and it hard to see then I'll crank up the brightness.
Can't complain about battery usage.. It's amazingly energy efficient even on a stock kernel considering the horsepower this thing has.. I average 20hrs or so with moderate to heavy usage.

I think battery life is pretty good
I've had really bad drains since 4.1.2. I think I've narrowed it down to an issue with Google Play. I've noticed it several times - Very good battery life, but then it will go down fast, even when sitting unused. If I check battery usage, Google Play is always number one with >50% of the use.
If I force close GP, all will be well for about a day, but eventually it happens again.
I also felt it, but only by that much...not too obvious. From full charge, after only night idle, drop 3 percent compare to last time 1 or 2 percent

Hallo!
Same problem, battery drain is faster, with normal use 12 hours (before 17) and when charging phone it's just 99%. With factory reset same resoult. Now I try without all gps conections.
Anyone have good solution?

So is the general consensus on battery life that it's good enough to get through a day with moderate type usage? One of the pros of active notifications is that it decreases your battery usage because you're not constantly waking up the phone to check notifications and time, right? I was kinda meh on the whole customization thing til I just went through Moto Maker and I kinda fell in love with what I designed. I know I like the size and on-screen buttons a whole lot more than the Maxx. It's just a question of whether I can sacrifice the larger battery and I know I don't need the two full days, but I don't wanna be stuck on a charger before one day is out either.
Any review online is saying it's above average battery life.
After a full charge, screen time over 3 hours with 55% battery left. I'm impressed.

I got a pretty much linear drop in battery regardless of usage yesterday. I put it on the charger after about 18 hours, but it would've made it to at least 24 had I left it off the charger. The interesting thing is that I had it hooked up to my car stereo to listen to music for a 2.5 hour drive, mostly with the screen off, and there wasn't any noticable difference in battery life. Also, I could hear stuff in the music i've never heard before, i.e. the sound is amazing.

After almost a week of using it, I actually find the battery life is a bit annoying in a good way though. I am not a heavy user. During the day, a dozen of times of youtube+netflix during breaks, a few phone calls and sms, while outside always have gps on. At the end of the day, I have about half battery left. To charge it over the night is somewhat electricity waste. But not charging it is to leave my next day somewhat anxious. So yeah, maybe I am too greedy in hoping for two days no charging. My Nexus 4 really requires at least one charge a day and this habit has grown on me. Oh well...let's hope after JB 4.3 update, X's battery life can be prolonged a little more
For the people that have posted stats. Is your battery saver on or off?
My best battery cycle was 31 hours standby and close to four hours screen time. It died before I could take screenshots though, will try again on this battery cycle.

This is with battery saver off, brightness auto
Also used blutooth audio for 30 minutes and GPS for about 20 minutes.
Loving the battery life and not sure how I survived without active notifications.

Battery lasts REALLY long at 1% battery life?

The other day I was trying to kill my battery, so I let a movie stream from Google Play until it died. It lasted TWO HOURS after the battery hit 1%. Yes, two hours of moving streaming on 1% of battery. See attached screenshot for proof (see the flat line at 1%).
Then, two days ago, I tested again. This time I just let it sit at 1% to see how long it would take to die. It took over 10 hours!! See other screenshot for proof.
Anybody else seeing anything similar? Clearly, when my battery says it is at 1%, it really has about 10-15% battery left.

Same here. I have a plug sitting here and the Moto X next to it and it's so routine to just plug in the GNEX, I want to do the same with the X but I don't have to.
I dont think this is necessarily a bug, I think it takes time for the OS to learn the full scope of the battery - it is always just estimating the charge. I bet after 6 months of use that 1% glitch would go away and you would see more accurate battery reporting. My phone appears to gain %'s when i leave it be after heavy use.

Yep same here, phone went from 4% to 7% yesterday when I was trying to make it last. I had turned off Mobile data at 1% battery life yesterday and my phone was dead within 25-30 minutes of being on 1%. I think everyones phone/battery is calibrated differently. With moderate use I'm down to 25-30% left after about 8-9 hours of use. Coming from my S4 I'm so used to being able to Greenify things, I can only imagine what this phone would be like with Greenify.

My phone is having this exact problem. I get about 10-12 hours battery life down to 1% battery, then it stays on 1% for at least 10-12 more hours. Does anyone know if there is going to be a fix released for this? It messes with my head not knowing when my phone is going to die, and I don't want to charge it if it's not dead. For instance, I'm on 2d 5h 14m on battery and it's been on 1% all day. It's pretty insane. Hope they roll out a fix. Glad to know i'm not the only one with this problem.
Next time this happens log your current and voltage readings using current widget so we can see what voltage the battery reads during this flat period at 1%. Then someone could plot the discharge curve in excel. May lead to clues. Perhaps problem with the fuel gauge or battery driver in the kernel. It all depends.
I seem to remember reading that the battery meter tunes itself over the first few charges, and that for the best accuracy you need to run it all the way down then charge it to 100%. 2-3 cycles of this is what was recommended. Can't speak to the validity of it but I know after running it down the first time and seeing the 1% last nearly 2 hours with heavy game use, on the second charge 1% meant 1%.

I'm on my second cycle of running it all the way down now, so we will see after the first 2-3 times if it calibrates itself. If not, i may be bringing my phone back, or ask verizon if they are going to be releasing a fix for it.
Really take it back for that?

Almost 7 hrs of SOT... Thats Frigging AWESOME! Can you tell us your usage patterns? What was enabled/disabled...? Majority time on WiFi or Mobile Network (2g/3g/HSPA/LTE). Signal Strength of the Carrier
On my N4, the highest ive gotten is 5 1/2 hrs of SOT and that is with most of the stuff disabled and on wifi!
Whoa! At first 11 hours looked bleak, but 7 hours of screen-on time sounds fantastic! :laugh:
Wifi on the whole time or not.. 7 hours of SOT is impressive.. especially on a 2300mAh battery
as a current S4 user, seeing things like this is making me really impatient in waiting for the N5! i could barely get 5 hours SOT on an AOSP rom on my S4 or even on TW and this was with greenify and auto sync off at night.
really hoping that once I get my N5 average SOT time will be 4-5 hours as thats all i really need to be satified

The most screen on time I used to get on my S4 is 5:30 with wifi only use. That number has dropped to 4:00 now on wifi and 3:00 when I am on LTE for pretty much the whole time.
This battery life is impressive to me and seeing the camera comparisons between nexus 5/S4 and having the Nexus 5 win has solidified by decision to get a nexus 5. Now if only I didn't have to wait 3-4 weeks...

Few questions:
1) google now on or off
2) Do you have sync on?
3) Do you have facebook/twitter/instragram...etc?
That looks amazing. Also that resolution on the screenshot....

For anyone that's interested, this is today's battery life on my Nexus 5. Came from a Galaxy S4 and I must say, I'm impressed.

Hey mate, that's a miracle, the curve goes even up at times :angel:
You obviously made some micro-charges during the day, you cheeky troll
For the first charge out of the box, should you charge the device on or off in order to get the best out of the battery as well as improving battery's lifespan? Cheers

Those two little bumps where it goes up in charge I think are where I had it plugged into the pc to transfer stuff across.
Anyway.....
Wi-fi was on all day apart from a couple of occasions where I went out for a short while and it was on H+ (full signal)
Google Now is disabled.
Sync is enabled.
Screen is on auto-brightness but my living room is fairly bright and so I'd guess at the screen being on 50-75% brightness all the time.
Those 7 hours of screen on time were pretty much all down to browsing on Chrome and aimlessly scrolling on Facebook.
I'm very impressed with this phone (even though my power button rattles) and at first didn't know if I'd made the right choice ditching my S4 to get it, but after having it since Friday I'm glad I did now. Another thing, the signal is great. On my S4 in the gym I used to get 1- 2 bars of 3G signal at best, with the N5 I get 4 bars of H+.
For anyone thinking about getting this phone, you won't regret it, especially if you're not a fan of having to charge your phone at 3pm because it's dead.

I ran it down Friday and charged it overnight, then ran it down again Saturday, charged it over night (both times 0% to 100% and both times whilst I was in bed I left it switched on but in aeroplane mode) and this was the result on Sunday's usage.
Did you put the charger twice?, the charging bar is empty, but in the graph there're two times it seems it was charging.

I mentioned that above, I think it's where I plugged the phone into my pc to transfer stuff across.

They were underneath wi-fi. I think they only equated to about 2 or 3%

Thanks, nice results though!.
I've seen multiple devices I've owned including this one where the battstats go up in tiny peaks without me charging it. Just saying, it happens even if it wasn't plugged in to PC. If u were in the PC we would have seen the charging bar wouldn't be empty. Its almost like the battstats graph predicts usage and where the batt prolly will fall to but then if u stop using it it goes back. Idk hard to explain.
