what is a "full day" for you?

[Snow_Fox]

I know everyone has a different definition of "making it through the day" but, lately I consider my captivate more than ample "for the day".

I usually check Screen time on VS. Since last charge to get an idea of how much I am really using my phone

I have found that I get pretty amazing results lately.

Screen on for 4 hours with 12 to 15 hours off the charger is average.

Screen time on for 1 hour has gotten me over 24 hours on standbye.

I may try to tweak voltage/speed to see if I can get more out of it.

If my phone can last from morning to evening I consider it full day. I can't seem to put mine down so I'm often charging it twice a day, granted I try to keep the battery between 20% and 80% so that cuts down the useable amount

a full day for me starts at about 8 in the morning and ends about 1 in the morning. im on my phone all the time, music, games, texts and just about everything, and i never turn off wifi. but i can make it through my full day

and i never turn off wife.

So your wife is turned on all the time!!!

No wonder you get such good battery life. You don't have time to use the phone.

A full day for me is 8am to 12am. I use it for everything from 30 - 50 minutes of Navigation unplugged, a couple hours of music, 2 Gmail and 1 push Exchange e-mail addresses, a couple 2 or 3 minute phone calls, and web browsing and Angry birds when I get a free second. If my daughter wants to play games on the phone that evening, it definitely needs a charge, but if not, it will last me the whole day.

Now that is with Paragon ROM. I could never made it through a day without charging when I was running the Stock ROM. I switched to Continuum a couple weeks ago, but I have been fiddling around with the kernel too much to get a good day in, so we will see.

8 am to 11 pm definitely have to charge it during the day I am a heavy user. I do lots of calling, texting, emailing and web surfing. I find the battery to be very bad, Iphone 4 also had to recharge it during the day.
