[Q] Blue stripe in battery use menu

Hi guys!
I have quite a serious question for you )) Please remember, I can not sleep until you give me the right answer.
So, if u take ur Desire S (or I believe any other HTC android phone) and go to Settings -> About Phone -> Battery -> Battery use, then u will be able to see a graph just at the top of the screen (and a title "(xx)h (yy)m (zz)s on battery" over the graph). I guess you all going to cry when you see this menu, because it's only few per cent battery remaining although u unplug the charger just twelve hours before. OK, sorry for flood. My question: there is a tiny blue stripe under the graph. Sometimes it interrupts. What does this stripe indicate?
PS. You know, many people complain to battery drain. And battery seems to drain faster just at the moments indicated by this stripe. Does anybody notice smth like this?

Without checking as phone isn't to hand at the moment, I believe that this is when the Screen is ON, considering that the Screen/Display is always the main user of phone battery, it's no surprise that the graph dips when this bar occurs.
Hope that you can sleep soundly now.

Mmm... ben_pyett, are u completely sure it's Screen_ON indicator? Unfortunately I don't know how to make a screenshot as I'm using stock ROM now, but believe me I saw blue stripe on my Desire S and it lasts for at least 5 hours. Then it interrupts and begins and interrupts again and so on. And I'm completely sure that the screen was not ON all this 5 hours.
PS. Stil not sleeping.

If you tap on the map it enlarges it to full screen with a breakdown of what the blue bar means

Wow!! det66, man, you're magician! How did u find it out?
Thanks anyway. In my case "awake" mode seems to drain the battery.
PS. Go to bad with a great pleasure ))

By luck ..but mostly the screen being on is the main battery killer

Well the screenshot tells us nothing. You'd have to give us all the battery screen shots. But from what I can see, 14 minutes on battery, a lot of screen use and some gaming... 3% isn't bad at all. You can't really judge anything on 15 minutes though.

While the N5 is one seriously amazing device, one thing it is not known for is having great battery life. You'll get used to it.

I already know that about the N5 battery, but i think it's particular problem with my phone.

You're still not showing all the screen shots. Your battery is fine. Look at the screen usage % of the other screen shot. Much less than yours
Here's the deal, if you use the screen, your battery goes down. Nothing new here.

So how to reduce that screen usage?

Only 2 things affect screen battery use.
1) the amount of time you use the screen
2) the brightness of the screen.
So turn it down or turn it off.

Playing games will drop your battery fast. No way around it. ?

You can see they didn't play a game in their screen shot, where as you spent some time playing clash of clans. Gaming will always drain your battery quickly and this is not a unique behavior with the Nexus 5.
Also the higher frames per second your phone can achieve the quicker your battery will drain. This makes an interesting situation as once your phone gets hot and throttles down it will actually last longer as the frames get lower. If you were to limit the FPS or CPU clock speed you could actually game for longer.
Usage, Settings, and Signal determine battery life. This would be an example of how different usage will obtain different battery life.

so i perfer to have a battary case, this phone battary so tinty

Yeah i got that, thanks a lot guys!

Mate 7 battery

I have changed my mate 7 screen and after this i have faced a problem with my battery it fully charge in 3 hours and take alot ot time in charging after reaching 90% , today while using it it was 20% suddenly droped to 0% and tuned off , i connected my charger anf boot it up and found its 13% , any help guys

Probably damaged the battery when changing the screen. It sounds like when the battery fails in my daughter's THL phone. She's killed two batteries in it already.

But I have checked the battery itself it's size the same and looks familiar

My suggestion did not help you?

Hi. Is your device rooted. Have you tried battery calibration. It's free from the app store. I've had the same problem. Battery calibration fixed mine.

You could give it a try. It's worth a shot atleast. I think you could calibrate without root. It's a small app try downloading it from the app store.

You should definitely try battery calibration, also with different apps.
I mean it is "normal" that the battery drains out quicker the last few percent if the battery is a bit older, but "a few seconds" as you say is way too fast.

Rom vs battery

Hi all
Another post about battery but I searched and I didn't get the answer that I need.
My note 20 ultra have a new battery changed by Samsung during warranty, but it's bad... We all know that this phone is not the best about battery life but my question is.
If I change to Dr Ketal rom will I have improvement in that order ? Or I will keep the same battery problem?
I really like this phone, but this kind of situation is not good for a price tag like this
Thank you all for the feedbacks and help

Hi
Why Dont you change the battery again ??
but before that , dial this code ( *#0228# ) then hit the " quick Start " , display will goes off then turn back on again ,
its done now,
after that for 3 times use it untill it turn off , charge it to 100% when its off . then use it again till its turns off,
3 times
during the callibration DO NOT use " Fast Charging " , turn it off from setting
if the battery has problems it will show during the callibration
if the battery does not go higher than a presice persent ( 70% Example )
if cherge suddenly goes down ( 70 80 to 40 )
under some persents turn off by it self
these are some battery issues ,
let me know
( Sorry For My English )

ill try it
i just use fast charging in some emergency
thanks
