Battery Dies Quick, WHY?? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

my NS4G with MIUI 2.6.1 and Matrix 20.0 Kernal goes to 98% as soon as i pull off the charger. if i use it for 45 minutes unplugged its dead. if i use it while its plugged in, it will die!
should i get a new battery?

Yeah that doesn't happen to me... I would try a full wipe and reflash the same ROM (or a different one) and reflash kernel.
If that doesn't work then I would try another battery because that drain seems abnormal

I just wanted to say that I have been having similar battery problems. Using the exact same ROM and Kernel as the OP, today my phone died within 6 hours of use, with the screen having been on for no more than 50 minutes. I also turned off data, and sync during this time, and had my screen's brightness at the minimum.
I've wiped and flashed AOKP b-38 today, and the consumption seems to be much better.
Any thing to help?

thought i was the only one.
is it the kernal?
or is it because its time for a new battery?
How could I test to find out which it is...

Swap kernels. Probably easiest way to test.
Very possible its just an old worn out battery.

hoping its just an old battery.
ive switched to CM9 / TouchWiz mod thinking it might be the ROM
im going to use the stock kernal from CM9 for a day to see if i could tell a difference.
ordered a new battery anyways.
saw on a forum somewhere a guy complaining about this problem since he switched to ICS ROMs .. hopefully thats not the case because i LOVE 4.0.X

If it were processes/functionality causing your battery drain, that quick, the phone would be piping hot at the same time!

yes, the screen also gets EXTREMELY hot!

Well in that case, what have you got installed? If you have apps constantly syncing, that could be part of the problem. What are your battery stats saying is using the most battery? My phone gets warm, but as expected since its being used. If its not being used,it could be a rogue app or the phone could be constantly searching for a good signal.
Sent by pocket technology.

i have barely any apps.
i only have facebook, xda, sportscenter and instagram installed besides GApps.
i have the problem even before i download apps as i just flashed CM9
also its so bad, that if i start using my battery when its @ 10% PLUGGED IN, it will eventually die on me. even though its charging..

[Q] battery drains when phone is shut down

my lg g2x drains my battery when turned off
the most previous experience was last night when i had my battery at 39 percent when i turned it off the next morning when i turned it on it was at 19%...
At first i thought it was the faux's DebouchedSloth (the one with the funky readings) so i paid no mind to it. (i just left it on during the night in airplane mode, which actually gave me better battery life) Later, i flashed the trinity kernel, only to find out the same thing happens
what do i do?
im running the latest cm7 kang build from baldwinguy77 with trinity kernel T15max 20122011 if thats any help.
thanks in advance
try a "battery calibration"
let it drain out completely and then let it charge 1 to 2 hours extra after it has reached 100%. worth a shot but i doubt it will help
or try wiping battery status in recovery
also, set up setCPU with profiles
Hmm.. I wonder how the battery drains even though it is off? o_o
Did you try turning it off, than remove the battery and put it back in? And see if it drains.
For me, my battery drains 0% overnight on airplane mode.

I just want to make sure when you say you turned your phone off you mean you shut it down right? I'm just trying to get a answer out of the way because I have seen so many post go a long way only to find out the original post misinterpreted a phrase. If it was in sleep mode a 20% battery drain isn't terrible. I've seen better and worse. If it's draining while it's shut off then I ask are you using the stock battery? It seems to be a big issue and I could easily see it leaking energy while off or giving misread.

there was an article on the xda homepage posted not that long ago. it was about how battery calabration doesnt effect battery life, but only the battery graph found under settings. basicaly it said that the batterystats.bin file only has to do with that battery graph, it tells the phone whats been eating the battery. here it the link if you want to read the article:

i dont know... and i used to leave it on overnight in airplane mode too with faux's kernel, it drained alot less leaving it on over night then turning it off. but the thing is, leaving you phone on for too long makes it sluggish, so i want to turn it off once in a while to help make it more snappy. I wanted to try that with trinity kernel, but ya thats not really working lool

I would suggest trying a new battery first. I purchased a couple of 3rd party batteries for $20. If it still drains while the phone is OFF, you have some sort of internal hardware problem.

sometimes it's the ROM, i've tried EaglesBlood, PheonixBlood and i get above then norm battery life. I'm on Xboard's OTA and my battery life is sweet
i'm having the same issue as well even when using 2 different batteries and an external charger (for the battery itself).
'normal' drain on the eaglesblood AOSP is about 20% an hour and when I turn off the phone, remove the battery, put it back in, and turn it back on after an hour, the battery drains till it's almost empty!
maxesxp, did the new batteries work? or was it some combination of rom + kernel that did the trick for you?
Weird I just thoughts about looking for this cause I had this happen for the first time. I was at 40% had no charger around so turned the phone off, turned it on the next morning and was at 2% effing weird!
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
My phone does this too. Some days it will drain only a percent or two and others it will drain like 20-30%. From what I can tell the kernel or something is not turning everything off on the phone. Try turning your phone off the next time you do and remove the battery and then when you go to turn it on put the battery back in and see if it drained then. If it did then it is a problem with the battery and if not it is a problem with the phone. If it is the phone there is not much you can do about that, sorry.

[Q] Heat, Heat, Heat

No, not the Miami Heat
I'm consistently getting my phone over 105 degrees while doing the simplest tasks. Light gaming like Scramble/Words with Friends, and Draw Something with Twitter and Chrome Beta. It might be because of this heat that I lose 10 percent of battery in 10-20 minutes.
I got the phone, and rooted it. Then, I flashed the nandroid of the OTA 1.84 and the newest radio. I flashed TrickDroid and I've tried flashing my old 1.53 pre-OTA nandroid, but no luck. Still hot.
Is my phone's battery just bad? Should I exchange it?
EDIT : Where can I find the old radio? I have the newer radio, but I'm back on 1.53, so I want to match them.
Same thing here but remember, when your screen is on for few or several minutes its going to heat up.
You can test it by turning screen off for few minutes, it'll cool down

Are you sure? I don't think phones should reach 105 consistently from using it for 5 minutes. But, anyways, what about your battery life?
I would get a replacement battery. My phone will heat up but not to that extent and that is only when I'm outside or when I have a lot of multitasking going on. I am rooted too with the s4 tmobile one s. I would definitely check into getting a new battery. :good:

I'm just saying from experience. My phone got hot as hell the other night while just browsing these forums for like 7 minutes. I got concerned and checked running processes.
Nothing weird was running. Locked my phone and in just a few minutes it was cool.
My battery is fine. Running Zydroid with the kernel it comes with and use cpu editor script that's built in. I have it on " on demand" and battery saver mode

[Q] How to increase battery life?

hey im a noob here so im sorry if this has been asked before but right now i upgraded my phone to ics and the battery life is horrible and im too cheap to get a battery extender so is there anything i can do to improve it or am i just going to have to deal with it?
Get your phone to 100% battery and then just play whatever you like until it completely dies. Then, plug it in to charge and dont touch it until it gets back up to 100%. That is supposed to increase the battery lasting time by 20%. It only works once...so dont do it 5 times hoping for results. This is supposed to be done when you first get the phone, but if its never been you've never done it, its worth the shot.

Let the ROM 'soak' in. It'll get better. You are probably busy messing with it figuring out all the features which is normal and makes the battery seem terrible. But overall it is pretty good.
And the post above is an old wives tale these days. It's funny to read people still recommending it.

Kinda, when you first flash with a factory reset, you don't have a battery stats file. This is another good reason to flash when your battery is 100% charged. When Senior Members here say "soak in", they are saying that the first boot all of the system apk (application packages) are cached to /cache. Doing too much while these apps are being cached screws up the statistics of the battery stats. If I really want good battery life, I totally wipe, and let the phone sit for 10-15 minutes. I leave usb plugged in till it's 100%, then pull the usb and use the phone until it totally dies.
By this time, the day is over and it needs to be charged anyways. I plug it into the charger before bed and let it charge up all the way with nothing running (no wifi, no bt, no background apps running).
After that charge, battery life seems soo much better. ymmv. it would be good to know if that works for you too.
Otherwise, everyone uses their phone differently, and some people install stupid apps that have intensive background services running that eat batteries, then complain about the rom sucking instead of introspecting about how they use their phone.

Just to clarify - battery stats file have nothing to do with battery performance and the battery stat file "is reset every time you unplug from power with a relatively full charge (thus why the battery usage UI data resets at that point)." Google Engineer Dianne Hackborn
ahh ok thanks guys ill do what you guys said and see if it helps
you can also install one of the battery saver apps on the market, like juice defender or similar. They will typically help and some can control how often background services are allowed to collect data.

These arent as helpful as they use to be. I have seen and challenged people to run with and without and the added battery life is either very minimal or actually worse with these apps.
Battery saver apps where created when android was very young and had bad management of the battery power. The way it works now it should lower the power to the radios low enough to save battery but not completely shut off the radios. Shutting them off will actually harm battery life because it takes so much more power to turn them on and off repeatedly then to let them idle.
no i think it was more designed for froyo and gb because if you try those battery savers in froyo or gb you can see it works and battery last long but if you test it in ics or jb (i have test juice defender with jb in the sgs3) and what i can see its that sometimes it lags (not always just when you like two or three apps open which for me in the sgs3 was weird) and data sometimes hangs i mean it doesn't load pages

Ill agree with you on froyo but gingerbread towards the end was much better.
The biggest thing is people dont realize how much power is used to start and stop things. Letting them idle will use battery but not nearly as much if you start and stop many times a day. Now at night if you want to turn off those things then yeah go for it. But if you are a frequent phone checker then starting and stopping them everytime will chew through the battery.
A good example is this, its summertime go outside and look at your electric meter when the ac first turns on. It will spin reeal fast for a minute or so while the system gets everything going then it will slow down. This same thing applies to your phone and its radios. Each time you shut it off it has to go through a process so you dont get corrupted data. And when you turn it on it has to use a lot of battery to make sure things dont get messed up and get to the proper operating form.
So any app that shuts off the radios manually and such will end up costing you battery if you are a power user.

I put FAH-Q kernal on AOKP and it seemed to help a bit. I was using systempanel and it said facebook was sucking cpu at night while the phone was resting... so i took off facebook for the moment to see if any other apps/processes could be causing a drain.
side note:
I spend 15-20 min in the morning going through stuff on my phone. Then I will listen to music in the car on my way to work 35 min. My phone will be at 80% by the time i walk in to work. I check things during the work day once and a while and by 2pm I will be around 40%. leaving work I will have 35-30% .... ok i'll just quit now and say running 12hrs i will have about 15% left. I think I am an average phone user. not sure how much everyone else uses theirs.

Music soaks up a lot of battery as well as display, data, and sync. You can try turning off sync and data when you don't need them. But it sounds like you are doing better. I am still concerned with what else you have running in the background though... however, 12-16 hours isn't bad at all...

Yes, as well as /system/ and at least .android_secure on your microSD
I would recommend against fully discharging your battery as a matter of course. While this might have been useful in the days of NiCads, deep discharges and heat are the Kryptonite of LiIon batteries.

Battery drain

My desire s battery drops from 100% to ~15% after about an hour of surfing with edge mobile network.(with different roms) And my friend tell me that this is unusual. I have tried calibrate the battery with the battery calibrate app and it didn't help . It's there anyway to solve this such as flashing baseband?

serious battery problem
OK, I have a serious problem. I updated official RUU, and my phone is running smooth. Battery lasts 1-2 days, everything is working fine. But last night battery was on 17% and I put it to charge at 12pm, woke up at 6am and it was on 33%. I'm charging it right now and it's up to 41% then drops to 39% and so on. Tried another charger - same thing. It won't charge! No new apps, no new settings, battery stats shows the same power use,.... Battery health is good, Auto sync is off,.... I have Go Power Master, Juice Defender, shows no problems. 3G is off, it's on GSM only, Wi-Fi is off, GPS is off and so on, my phone is fully optimised and this happened last night. I charged it while off and now it's on 37%! So I guess it's not a software issue. Anybody has an answer or a clue what could be the problem, please? Is my battery dead (year of use)? Thanks in advance.
try to restart your phone?
Tried that. I'm currently charging it power off, turned it on and it's still draining. While it's off!
i guess it's battery problem. Borrow another battery from your friend and try again.
Well, it was a strange thing... I've noticed that GO Power Master is killing like 25 apps and prolonging time for some 2 and a half hours when you hit optimise button every 2 minutes. So some apps are running in the back and draining the battery. So I uninstalled some of them (clock widget, Noom, Zoner antivirus,...) and restarted phone and by the end of the day it was all stabilised like before. I don't know what happened. I'm still testing it but I've managed to charge it to 100% and there was no drain over night. We'll see.

Noom
I have a S2 and every day, at 20:00 the phone starts a process and gets very hot and also drains the battery.
I discover that if I freeze the Noom app, it doesn't happen.
So, I blame noom for your draining issues and mine.
Does anybody else having this problem?
Regards
I didn't had a problem since uninstall, but it happened again later, I think it was from Firefox. While it was on charger, I got popup note saying something like "phone is using more than current can deliver, try to kill some apps or turn phone off while charging." First time I see that note. Probably because it was on Sense, not on launcher. I've noticed that Firefox is using a lot of memory, uninstalled it and it was all normal like before.

Tried another charger - same thing. It won't charge! No new apps, no new settings, battery stats shows the same power use,.... Battery health is good, Auto sync is off,.... I have Go Power Master, Juice Defender, shows no problems. 3G is off, it's on GSM only, Wi-Fi is off, GPS is off and so on, my phone is fully optimised and this happened last night. I charged it while off and now it's on 37%! So I guess it's not a software issue. Anybody has an answer or a clue what could be the problem, please? Is my battery dead (year of use)? Thanks in advance.

I had this problem, but svery time it was solved with rebooting. It showed normal percentage. I think, you just need to reboot device sometimes, may be once in two days. I suppose to think the couse of ghis problem is a kernel) it can be engaged with not an exact process, so battery drains. Try to change kernel, or rom, or battery)

[Q] Paranoid android on one plus one overheating

I got my one plus on Monday, the stock cm11 works fine. Last night I got a wild butt hair and installed paranoid android. This morning not two hours after unplugging I'm at less than 50% battery and the phone gets unusually hot even with the screen off... Are there any logs I can post to help identify the problem? Also where are the power settings in paranoid android, I can't seem to find them
Did you clean flash?
What power settings are you talking about?

Yup I cleared cache/data/dalvik
powersettings = performance/battery saver etc. (its in cm11, so i assumed it would be in PA)
I too got a wild hair up my ass and installed Paranoid Android on my OPO at 2am on Saturday morning. Used it very much throughout Saturday and it lasted until about 2pm on Sunday afternoon before needing to be plugged in.

Probably just bad luck... Just reboot and plug it until it's full and it shouldn't happen again
Also there are no power settings on Paranoid Android, but you can flash Franco Kernel and use its app to tweak the performances to your needs

It sounds like you have an app that might be acting up. Get better battery stats and find out what the issue is

I think your right, at first I thought it might be PowerAmp, but now im leaning towards google play music... I had flashed cm11 back on the phone, and the same issues came up. Eventually through the day playing with it at work, it stopped recognizing the usb charger. So I was able to redownload the pa_bacon**.zip and flash that, it took a charge afterwards.. it seems the main battery drain was from caching all the music i put on the phone (30gb) I'm gonna let it fully charge and see what happens..
After you flash let it drain down then charge back up fully and see if the problem persists
