galaxy nexus battery life

[DROID MONSTER]

Yeah I'll have to check them out. Wish I could get a android with a iPhone battery life Lol...

So I have under clocked it and under volted it. And I get decent battery life, but sluggish performance ugh!!

Do you live in an area with poor reception? Bad signal is one of the biggest battery killers.

Try not undervolting, perhaps your device doesn't like that. Undervolting saves battery theoretically but not all processors can handle it properly, and as such can actually drain battery more.

Okay, so you think I should try taking the volts up a bit then?

I don't think that is your entire problem, but it could be part of it. It is something else to try.

OK, well i flashed the cyanogen mod. ROM the newest release, and it seems to be running OK. My battery is charging. It has only lost about 1% while i was using it

 

[DROID MONSTER]

Well the only thing is it really charges slow,,,

If you are on 4.2 I think this is a semi-common problem. No clue of a fix, as I am a little out of the loop when it comes to 4.2 as I have been kinda busy lately. Android 4.2-Gate: Here Are Some Of The Major Issues Plaguing Google's Newest Release <-- it is mentioned there with links.

the nexus has a poor battery in the best circumstances. When did you get the phone? If its under warranty tell verizon and get a new battery. If you bought it in store they will swap it out prob no sweat. Also did you condition it properly when you got it??

I have had the phone since July, but i took insurance off, because i rooted it. You cant do nothing with warranties if your rooted

You can easily unroot and return to factory settings

 

[DROID MONSTER]

Easily? How is that possible? I know i can unroot , but i know there are a lot of problems i can encounter

 

[dezymond]

Either of the Nexus toolkits can return your phone to factory settings and with very little chance of running into any problems.

OK, I unrooted and I'm on stock JB. And my battery life has increased by like 50%! I'm in love with my nexus again... no more rooting for me.
