I'm seeing many circle battery app, can you tell me the developer of the one you are speaking of? Thank you 
I just got my razr maxx last Thursday, and I am wondering if the battery on it is normal or there is something wrong with it. It's charged at 100%, and I take it off the charger and start using it with normal usage, after about 28 minutes the battery indicator changes to 90%, and then turns into 80% after 1 hour of usage. I am not running anything heavy, in fact I am constantly terminating background apps and tasks in an attempt to reduce battery usage. I thoguht this is razr Maxx with 3400mAH and it's suppose to outlast other android devices. Is there something wrong with my battery? Should I take it back to verizon and make them get me a new one since I am still in the 14 days warranty?
I have not let the battery fall below 40% yet in my daily usage, therefore I have never really fully discharged it. Any thoughts?
Here is breakdown of my usage today: 14h 3m 26s on battery. Current = 40%. (please note large amount of time is spent idling)
Display 26% Time ON=2h41m31s
Android OS 21% (53m27s)
Wifi 12% (9h46m40s)
Maps 11% (30s)
Mediaserver 6% (13m47s)
Phone IDLE 6% (11h23m54s)
Cell Standby 5%(14h6m43s)
Browser 4% (9m46s)
Facebook 3% (14m2s)
Android Systems 2% (10m2s)
NOTE: Large amount of time was spent idling, but excluding idling, do you think it's normal?
Go to the Market an Get a App called Circle Battery it's a Free app but they have a Paid Version as Well once installed on your Home screen Take your Finger press lightly on the screen till you see Widgets pop When you do scroll up a bit an choose your size of your Circle. Once it's on the Screen tap it. It will take you to the Settings for it Follow the Instructions an it helps to watch the Video if there is one with in the app. But once it's all set up you can Tap it an then Scroll up to Information Touch either Battery or Battery Usage an it will tell you how an what is Consuming your Battery the most. From there you just need to do adjustment that will help give your Battery a little more time Say like you see the Display it shows 50 to 75% Ok what do you do to adjust it. This is what you would do. Go to your settings > Display > Enter there > from there you can trim your time out to Adjusting your Display's Brightness Mine is set to 15% an Auto Brightness is Unchecked. An the smart Actions App Can help a Bunch give it a Try. An the last thing i will Add is this Charge the Battery Fully about 3 to Hours it is a big Battery you can let it go an Hour or Two over that. I do that on mine an when it get's down to were it needs to be charged i prefer letting it go down to were the Red led indicator is Flashing then i put it on the Charger an i use Motorola Chargers the one that came in the Box Please Don't charge it from your Computer that's not a good choice...

give me a second >>> Ok the App is by Cedric Depoortere (( you can get it Free or for a $1.49
I forgot to mention, I am also running on full 4G LTE network ever since I got the phone. My area is very well covered by 4G LTE
I 'll switch with you right now if you want
I would like a big Cup of 4G right now! were i live it's just 3G i have to travel 35 miles to get the 4G
Loveness but we'll have it in the Fall..
B33, do you think there is something wrong with my battery though? Should I take it back to verizon and make them ship me a new one while I am still under the 14 days?
How many days have you Had it
I had it since Thursday, so 4 days?
PS NOTE; since I posted this, i'm now at 29% battery.
You might be pulling more since your in a Constant 4G area! What do you think Rc like i said i live in a 3G only Area.. On my Maxx as right Now no pulling no Leg it shows 2days 12 Hours 37 min. But i haven't been Constantly playing with either How ever I have streamed Winamp for a 20 Hour Leg. An that's No Poop on the Barbie
One way I can think of which would possibly cause the battery to drain which would be normal would be if you were in an area which had no service and your phone was CONSTANTLY searching for service.
For example, my workplace does not receive cellular service. It is blocked by the building and equipment around my office. I can leave the phone on my desk in the morning at 100% battery charge and by noon, the battery would be dead. This would be with NO usage, and the screen never being on. I can take the same 100% battery charge AWAY from my office, talk on the phone for a couple of hours, send/receive 50-100 text messages, read my Kindle book for an hour or two and still have well over 50% battery usage in the same amount of time.
Because of this, while my phone is sitting on my desk, I always have it in airplane mode. This way, when I leave my office and take the phone out of airplane mode, I have ~100% battery charge.
Isn't it also true that if you are in an area that does not have 4g coverage you need to manually set your phone to 3g to avoid the phone constantly looking for 4g and using battery power?
No! you want to keep it on CDMA/LTE an don't change it from there A T3 Tech advised me of this.. it can cause issues..
THX....
Your Welcome.. Xu you might try this run your battery all the way down till the indicator light shows up. about 10% battery then charge it for 4 Hours with the phone Off not On an then go one more Hour...Once done an if your not doing anything Special like work or Such just hanging around at Home. Stream Slacker , or if you Know how to Stream Winamp try doing it for as long as it will Go before you return it. But if it can't Muster that Go ahead an Return it. Let me know the Results Ok
So you want me to drain it and charge it well and run it down again and then charge it again?
here's the short story. if you can go for an entire day and actually USE the device for at least 3 hours (browsing, talking, texting, music, vids, etc, etc) during the day, then your battery is fine. if you'r not using it at all and it's draining down to 10-20% in less than a day, then the battery is likely bad......but it sounds to me like your battery is fine. it looks to me like your display was actually on for almost 3 hours and you still had 40% left. that's a solid battery. fyi....unless you actually need to use 4g then i would force it to 3g only and you'll get significantly more battery life. i'm in a solid 4g network (phoenix), but it still crushes my battery. i put it on 3g only and i switch it to LTE mode if i want to stream video or download large files.
AZSALUKI,
But your assumption is for any regular android devices. However, the razr MAXX is advertised for it's long lasting battery, containing 3400mAH, therefore, the general expectation should be at least a little higher. 3 hours certainly doesn't seem to suffice for a 3400mAH.
but it also has top of the line specs (processor, display, etc) that will consume a bit more battery than my tbolt, for example. it appeared that you were at 2 hours and 40 minutes of the display on and had 40% left. that seems to me like you were on pace for a solid 5 hours of actual use, which i still say is a solid battery.looking at your stats, i can't really figure out why the display was on for nearly 3 hours???? it doesn't appear that you used it much, but i can only assume that it was in use whenever the display was on. if that's the case, then 14 hours off of the charge and 2 hours and 40 minutes of usage, with 40% left seems good to me....even for a 3400.
UPDATE:
After a full drain and complete recharge and used it today, here is the battery report, B33, let me know if I should return the phone?
