Bump charge

I've come from the Thunderbolt and DInc., so I'm used to bump charging but was wondering if we need to do the same to the GNex. I drained the battery last night, and when I woke up, the charge was at 98%. That's eerily similar to my old HTC phones. Anyone else experience this?

I am coming from the Inc as well. I had not bump charged my phone for many months now because I had gotten around 14 hours on average with medium usage, so I know what you are asking and I came here for the same issue. 4G does in fact squeeze the battery.

Hahaha, I actually mentioned bump charging in the Official Battery Life Thread

Does this phone's led come on when full or is there something to say it is full?
Mine has been on the charger since about 8am and still shows it is charging but if i go into the battery stats it says it is 100% full

I had mine on the charger all night and when I woke up it was at 99%, and the battery stats hadn't reset so it never hit 100%... until like 2 minutes after my alarm had gone off on it then it hit 100 and reset the stats. Found that strange, but it was only the 2nd time it had been charged all the way to 100.
