Battery life.

[ryanr509]

Wondering what kind of battery life people are getting on their nexus 4. Whether on wifi or hspa+ and what kind of screen on time u are getting. Here are my latest times pretty much all on WiFi.

I'm not getting anywhere near that kind of battery performance.

For some reason I'm consistently seeing Android OS using more of my battery than my screen. I need to read more forum posts to see what people have done about this.

I'm a moderate user and I turn off Wi-Fi while at the office

Wow. I'm at 41%, 13hrs on charge, and only 1hr 17 minuets of screen time. Battery seems to have gotten worse for me the last few days

I noticed today that like you Google+ was using a lot of battery, just under 10% for me, and I never use it so I force closed it. Hopefully that will help my battery life. Also maps is the biggest killer of my battery at 18%, hardly ever use maps, so I'm thinking its Google Now keeping maps active.

If you go into maps>settings>location settings and disable report from this device it should help with the maps problem. Also remember my battery life was on WiFi only. If I'm using just HSPA+ I get only about 10hours and 2.5-3hrs screen on time

You've had your phone on for 21 hours and still have 20 something percent charge left? By definition your battery is behaving perfectly, stop stressing!

If you do this I believe when you open google maps it will not locate your current location. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
