that's weird, I think it depend on user usage. I don't play 3d games.

You recharged half way, your stats don't count as it's not accurate.

personally ive been using the james bond kernel with liquid jelly. and its giving me the best results in terms of battery out of the kernels i've tried. I know everyones phone is different as well as how you use it but you guys might want to give it a shot

 

[ac3theone]

I think this is pretty good battery life

I'm on stock jb with Franco kernel with the CPU sleeper app

People, please post your Gnex model with your stats..

Part or the problem here is the fact that nobody says if they have a GSM or LTE Gnex.. the LTE units does use quite a bit more juice than the GSM ones.

Personally I would love to see some battery stats from people on Verizion or Sprint(with active LTE) with LTE on and with LTE off..

For the sprint people, do you have LTE active in your area? if you do not and you have LTE turned on, I'm sure that would be a huge battery hog...

To the juice defender post.. Turn of you radio? really? this is a phone... in order to receive phone calls the radio must be on.. I can't speak about the CDMA version, but my GSM uses at most 5% cell idle time after a full day..

This GSM Gnex actually has the best battery life out of anything I've owned and I've had a few smartphones over the years

Current setup AndroidME ASOP Light 1.1 - Trinity307

find efrant's thread in general section. Or read stikies
Basically you use fastboot and Google factory images to go back to stock.

Some interesting ideas in here. Will certainly try out a few. I have a GSM version and in general I can get more that 24 hours. I am however not a heavy user.

I also use Franco kernels(348 only) and personally I found it to be an improvement to stock.

If you guys are really looking for a fulproof way to extend your battery life, go on the Play Store and download the app.. Juice Defender Beta, followed by the paid version.. Juice Defender Ultimate. You have to do it that way, as JD Ultimate works like an unlock key. What Juice Defender does, is disable your data connection while you screen is off.. then enabling it when you unlock your phone.
I've found that this is really the only way to truly increase battery life, bc once you set the parameters in JD's settings.. it'll do it on the fly for you. Also, you can train Wifi locations so JD will enable Wifi when you're in range and then automatically disable it when you're out of range. I recently wiped my phone, so it's relearning my Wifi location.. I know I don't have a Nexus, but I've OC'd my HTC Vivid to 1.62Ghz and I still get about 10-17hrs w/Juice Defender's help. Let me know if this helps anyone!

HTC Vivid, S-On, DeSensed
ROM: Virtuous Inquisition 4.0.2.1
Kernel: Faux-123 v007

QFT - JD increased my battery life from an average of 8 hours of usage to 15 - I'm not listing the details of my settings,rom,kernel as nobody's phones/settings are alike.

Let me add that JB simply turns everything off when you aren't using it - sync settings are set so you cycle everything as often as you like but each app is controlled so you aren't firing off syncs all the time.

For me this is a big battery saver as I receive 300 email per day for business - so if I'm syncing all hte time the battery drain is insane.

When I wake the phone, everything is firing like normal.

All about the network signal

I've played around with kernels and underclocking on my Sprint GNex for the last year with no noticeable improvements over stock. The big battery drain for me comes from Sprint's poor signal quality. I can get 12-15 hours easy on WiFi, but when I'm out and about I'm lucky to get 8.
