Awesomeness


In your screenshot is that 9hrs on that 70% charge? I'm rather new to smartphones so I'm trying to figure out if I'm getting good battery life or not. I read some people can do a day and half on a single charge. I certainly could not. With moderate/light use I can go morning to night with the battery dipping into 20% range by night time.

Here is a screenshot of my battery usage. I fully charged my battery last night (did not leave it charging while sleeping). I only lightly used it this morning. Made a five minute call and browsed these forums for about ten minutes. I'm not sure if this is good battery life or not.



UPDATE:
After taking this screenshot I used my phone to write this post which took me about 10 minutes since I'm still getting used to typing with a touchscreen. Then I took a couple of panoramic pictures. That dropped my battery level down to 55% from the 74% in the picture. Is this normal battery life for this phone?

So signal does have to do with battery, interesting....do you get 4G or 1x in basement?

it fluctuates, but mostly 1-2 bars 4g. Sometimes when I browse the internet I see my percentage drops by the minute.

You are familiar with Optimus M. I had to get an extended battery with new back cover because of my situation.

here is the comprising of 2 Optimus M with regular battery and extended one.
