I have a 4500mah battery and I want to do a full cycle but the battery is draining so slow! (Which I known is a great thing but I want to do a full cycle)

Any suggestions on how to drain it faster?
I have turned off JD, put it at 100% brightness and watched a whole movie on YouTube and it's hardly going down lol

I probably shouldn't be complaining about this lol

Play some heavy graphics games like Mc3 or NFS most wanted. That'll bring it down a good +50% in 2 or 3 hrs. :)

My one x is better then your one x!!

Disable all power saver settings and turn all your radios on (Bluetooth & GPS), and if possible leave WiFi off and just use your data connection. And like what Sense said, play some graphic intensive games.

try not 2 use wifi. i think the actual data connection will drain faster than wifi.

Open navigation. It'll die in no time.

Also try to get bad signal that drains your phone super quick. So idk maybe put it in a drawer?

They make apps to drain battery as well. I think. Lol

Yeah, I dont have unlimited data thats why Im tempted not to

Ah yeah this is what I was going to test. When I want to full cycle i let Netflix run on the data network.. Helps to kill the battery.

Wifi may work but not as fast.
