I seem to be getting pretty average battery on my Z3C and the estimated battery life shows it. When I first got it it was showing an estimated 2 day life and now this shows as 5 hours average. My normal usage yesterday lasted me 5 hours of screen time and 15 hours total. Not sure if there's an app eating up my battery or if I have a defective unit.

It might be because you checked it at 99%. Going from 100 - 99% is usually quite fast. Could you post later results? Maybe around 40% or so?
Edit - I should have looked closer. Didn't realize you were charging the phone. Sorry, I got nothing for you then, other than to charge it a couple more times and test it out then. You probably did get yourself a dud battery.
It seems there was an app that was killing my battery. I wiped it and reinstalled the firmware and it seems to be getting much better battery now

What was the app? My usual battery life is around 5 hours SOT with around 17 hours total uptime between charges, which sounds like what you were having.
Google search is what was killing my battery. It was creating a wake lock due to locations so I had to turn it off

Gotcha. I went ahead and turned off the location reporting portion of Google Now, we'll see if I can achieve similar results When you say you reinstalled the firmware, do you mean you did a factory reset?
I could have done that but I actually used Sony's software to wipe and reinstall the software for it.

My mistake - I thought you meant you reinstalled the firmware for your entire phone lol. Basically, all you did was turn off Google Now and then delete and reinstall it? Sorry for all the questions, just trying to get my battery life up lol.

No I actually mean using the pc software to download and install the firmware which deleted all data on the device. It seems to be doing better. I got around 3 hours screen time and 12 hours use on half the battery

Hi,
I had V10F now im at V10H (same problem)
My battery life decreasing literally by the minute, when I hold the phone with nothing running, just looking at the screen I get 1% battery decrease in about every 2-3 minutes.
I got the phone with V10F and now upgraded to H and did Factory reset, nothing changed.
Is this a common bug?
Thanks
Install better battery stats and check what is draining ur battery. And it ain't sounds like a bad battery. But better battery stats should help u determine what is causing the issue.

It started on the 10F for me, I got the phone with it.
Whats the best app to see which apps takes the most battery?
I think it was a mistake to sell my Galaxy Note for X4, I never had such serious battery issues and I always assumed that in regular non gaming, non multimedia use the tegra3 will use the 5th LP core.
what a disappointment.
Now It stopped connecting to WiFi N networks for some reason

Hi Dante501: I have Better Battery Stats installed on my mobile. I am able to check the battery loss since unplugged, boot, etc.
However, BBS app does not show the name of app that took maximum battery, etc. The other app sugggested on XDA Easy Battery Saver does show the detailed information. EBS has some in-mobile advts which I clicked quite often and get charged for some useless services. I have unisntalled and have only BBS.
Is there some other apps that gives the details as to which app too how much percentage, and so on. That will be very useful. Thanks in advance for your suggestions/info.

Im not sure its possible, after I updated the ROM I did factory reset and format
Well unless its one of the Lg apps.
Im going to use the guide and disable all of them
Any ideas what can affect wifi? I mean if it connects to G but not N its not broken rihgt?
P.S. I also noticed that X4 has no WiFiN 5Hz support, when I used Note it always found my 5Ghz SSID and I was able to connect.
X4 wont even find it, it finds 2.4Ghz N but trys to connect and then nothing.
was working fine 2 days ago. with occasional issues, I had to off/on the wifi before It could connect to N network.
Now it wont connect at all.

I don't know what you guys are doing with the phone but, mine last for more than two days last time I need to charge it, using GPS for 45min.+/-, normal calls 30min.+/- and about 45min. total in the internet (checking emails, facebook, playstore and xda app).
Today I almost didn't use it, only one call, about 5 min., I play a race in NFS, around 5min., check the playstore for news and updates 10min.,
and I have 80% of charge...
I'm on v10h and I don't see any or a big difference between one and the other.

Same here, with 4.2.2 I had like 17 days in standby but I saw when I reboot my phone, the time left switch to less like it will calibrate him self. To me is inaccurate anyway, there is no way to keep you phone alive so long like it show you so I will not be bothered about it. Make a calculation on your own.
I thought ur phone is already in 4.3?

Yes, it is. I was just saying was even worse with 4.2.2 but no big changes even on 4.3.
What I'm wondering is, how do you people know how many hours there should be left?
Does it not calculate this depending on the data you supply it with (your previous usage on cycles it has monitored)
Mine showed pretty low numbers very early on since I was fiddeling so much with it that the battery was flat pretty quickly.
Later the predictions increased, since I started to use it a bit less..
If you delete all the info it has to go on all the time, how will it be able to give you correct output?
how long does your phone last usually?
You say inaccurate, do you mean it shows too many or too few hours left?

In my case it shows always more than what he will really be on battery. This was with 4.2.2 and still with 4.3. You right about how it work and how the calculation are managed but really the calculation are untruthfully. I will never take in consideration what the phone saying so this was my only advice.
In my case my battery drains more if my power management malfunctiond and it bothers me..

This 2% per 5 mins is when the phone is in standby mode ?
then there is some crap that is eating all your battery.

please reply with the app that is using most battery.

And then you've either installed some app that keeps your phone constantly awake, or killed the battery immediately by discharging it to 0. That's the only 2 explanations.
Right now I'm 17h on battery at 50% remaining, and screen as the top discharge reason with 32%. My father, who doesn't use the same phone extensively, routinely charges it once in 2 days. You should have screwed up something really bad to cause this phone not to hold charge.

Could be killed battery. This app won't do anything bad, I believe.
Might also be something reception-related, but I'm not sure if the reception is good/bad or if your carrier does/doesn't support fast dormancy and to what degree does it affect the phone.

Hey mate, sorry to hear you are getting worse battery life. Are you using anything from your normal? Check out my guide and see if anything helps. Below are my stats currently. I can only see you still have your alarm on, this can cause a slight lose.
Mine hasn't ever lasted as long as your day and a half, maybe it is just leveling out? A few days ago I recalibrated my battery, maybe that would help?

I had a battery problem similar to yours not long ago. One of the things that was running it down was in Settings> Wi-Fi> Always allow scanning. The phone would scan for Wi-Fi signal even when Wi-Fi was turned off. Unchecking that box helped a lot.
I also used a battery calibration app that clears the battery stats and that has pretty well fixed the problem.
