    Something is definitely up with the clock though. You might want to look into troubleshooting that first. But honestly, your battery life isn't all that bad. 2+ hours of screen time on so far and based on that usage, you're projected to get near 17 hours on a charge. Get the clock figured out and you should get a bit more time.

    Oh okay sorry I'm not familiar with these terms. Either way it was awake too much for my tastes so I turned off NFC, turn over to mute, and cleared clock data. Got 12 hours with 4 hours of screen on time and only an hour of held awake. I'm happy

    I let the battery run down to 9% then turned the phone off and charged it. I let it charge over night. I used the phone moderately, played some games, checked facebook and twitter etc... The charge lasted gor me 1d 3hrs. I thought that was excellent. I'm smiling. :-)

    No reason to ever turn the phone off.

    FoxKat, the well-respected battery expert around these parts, will strongly disagree with you, at least in certain situations.

    My best results with my battery is when I have turned it off to charge.

    No reason to turn it off to charge the phone to max, you are not getting a better charge of the battery while phone is off.
