What kind of battery life are you getting?
For me so far
For me so far
I totally forgot about this. Good one. :thumb:The LG Spirit (MS870) is fully capable of browsing the web at 4g speed while on a voice call (this was tested in the 48hr marathon too).
I have both phones and on performance they are both the same. The spirit has not lagged on me no matter what. So I would say it's much higher up than a GT-R. LOLNissan GT-R (LG Spirit) instead of dishing out tons more cash for a Veyron (GS3).

Dang, you guys are getting fantastic battery life. I'm not sure if I'm getting that good of battery life.
When you first got the phone, did you let the battery drain completely and then charge until 100% and left it on the charger for awhile? I heard that helps maximize the battery.
Maybe my usage is heavier than you guys.

What works for me....
---Disabled the usual gps - wifi - I don't use wise screen
---Disabled animations - vibrate - haptic feedback
---When in dim lighting I shut off screen brightness from pull down
---When done using phone I hold down home button and kill all then clear ram with stock widget
---I only use 4G, even when I'm home
What gave me the biggest results was a few days after I got the phone, I let it discharge till it shut off. Then I turned it back on, and when it got to the lock screen it shut off. I then put it on the charger and once it was full I gave it another 15min. Doing this I gained about an extra 5hrs. of charge.
I am not suggesting any of this to anyone, it's simply what I do.
Here's a screen shot of my current stats.
Keep in mind, the Spirit is not my primary phone...
It probably still is the case.Using 4g drains more battery than wifi... is that not the case here?
Well, I see part or hopefully all my issue. The battery power sensing is taking awhile to settle in and acting wonky. Remember I was at 66% at 1045 AM today. It's been stuck on 25% now for over 2 hrs. I used it, saw it drop to 24 then back up to 25. Guess I'll just let it get low (10%) and recharge. (Now I'm at this alleged 25%, 18.5 hr, just 2 hr 5 min screen time.)
I knew this happens but never to this extent with me before.

However, I pay for unlimited 4G and it happens to be over 6 Mbps down in my area, so I don't use wifi. Weather on wifi or 4G, it's never made a significant difference for me in battery life.
