about the battery life.
i dont know why, but when im still using v10f. when i went to sleep, the next morning it only dropped about 1-2%...
but now using v10h, the amount is really different, it dropped more than 10%. no wifi or data network on.

Re: [Q] LG-P880 battery life

---

Same thing with my phone after update to stock 10h!
It doesnt mather if wifi or 3g are on or off, same with autsync! Over night 8 to 20 % of battery drain!
Nemus launcher(few posts before) helps to minimze batt drain when using phone light..but over night..pure battey sucking hole..

I am not a expert, but i had android smartphones from the begining, from samsung galaxy i7500 until now..a have diferent brands..lg, samsung, htc..and this is the only phone that have battery drain that i cant figure out! Better battery stats shows that nothing drain batt , except androyd system (90% and more) even widgets are turnd off, autosync off, dataconnetion off,youtube and talk singout, location like services unchecked like the os doesnt realy turn this things off! And i tried factory reset, clearing cache, even purchased second original battery!
Strange thing i must say!
I know root and removing apps probably would help.. but...i buy phone for using ..if i wont root, and testing, and finding solution for battery drain..then i be working in lg or diferent smartphone company..

Has anybody used apps like Juice defender etc? there seems to be good feedback on them.

I have recently got this phone and yes battery drain is a problem. I hardly get 15-20 hrs. I am on V10E

For me Cell Standby and Phone idle is highest usage at 31% and 27% resp.

Have been going through this thread and implemented many of the work arounds, but still not very not very good

I know that rooting will help, but want to go on for some time without as might screw up the warranty..

Any help suggestions ?

I didnt use go ex, to much settings to much time for me

Have you iuse the "New luncher"? Do not know if it's lighter than NEMUS would like if possible to have an opinion. I used the NOVA and really liked it.
I have a question, if I have an active luncher alternative, the optimus ui v3.0 does not consume battery?

It is simple! Just test it!
For example, when i use lg stock launcher my android system use 70-95% battery, and if i dont touch phone after 3-4 or more hours the % of batt for android system is the same. But when i use nemus launcher , yes android system batt usage goes also very high but after some time of deep sleep the android system batt % drop rapidly, and nemus launcher batt % doesnt go over 10%, and batt % of phone idle and cell standby take control!

If your non stock launcher (nova, nemus, go ex..and others) is doing the same thing, rapidly drop android system batt % then is good to go, and the optimus ui 3.0 is also just an app and therefore doesnt consume power (but if that is 100% for sure than we never have discussions like this, and problems like batt drain )

If you have root than you can freeze (disable) lg stock home launcher and home selector , but before you need to install (you already have) custom launcher and set to default launcher, that is 100% sure for no power consume of stock lg launcher.

I really do not have time to test this because i use and need my phone every day, so i just use the launcher with simpler settings and less options ! But i must say, less options, and lower size app is not always battery friendly it depends of course how is it made!

And if You have some of your time free, do the test, pick some launcher , test it in same conditions, for two, or one day each and post here that everyone can see which launcher consumes less power!
