battery drain soo fast when in use
i bought my samsung galaxy 2 tab 7 p3100 few day back and im not satisfied with the battery when in use it battery drains soo fast approximately stands for 15 hours only when left unused stands for 1 and half to 2 day...i can see battery percent goes 1 by 1 with minutes when i use is continuously and my version is P3100DDLE1 ... i use 2g gprs all the time and stay connect all the time in facebook and whatsapp 24x7 and gmail ....... should i claim warranty for the battery??? does anyone face the same problem????
I am running on roughly 7 hours at 78% of battery left. Been using the Internet a lot (Facebook, some Drop Box upload/download) and the Wifi is on all the time when the tab is not locked/standby. I played a little bit of a basic game as well (Free Flow), so it isn't graphically intense. I am by no means the most experienced here, but in my opinion, that sounds like some decent, if not very good, battery usage..

Thanks for your kind reply may i know how many hours once you charge your device ????
I used mine on Friday for 10hrs,tons of browsing,I turned the screen on and off many,many times, video calls for roughly 10mins,music,games for 45mins and at the end of all this I still had a 42% left.
The device is the P3100 wifi+3g it is rooted; I was only using wifi,so no 3G at all, I also had the tab on airplane mode with wifi constantly running,so no 911 calls.
I am running the latest stock rom,it is rooted and bloatware free,I also limit the background processes down to none,1 or 2 max.
So far I am very happy with my tab, although wifi is still spotty.
OP What are your settings?

Here is a screenshot of my battery usage once pulled off the charger after a full charge. I have the Wi-Fi only version of the tab.
If you cannot view the screenshot.. After a full charge, I have 44% battery life left, have been running on the battery for 1 day and 7 hours, and the screen has taken the largest toll at 46%.

guys, could you tell how long was your screen on, please?
mine was only roughly 6 hrs.
Screen should always be the largest consumer of battery

was it roughly 6 hours when it drained fully???
my galaxy tab p3100 drained fully in roughly 5 hours of screen time on
At least for me, turning down the brightness all the way and disabling some system apps that are always on helped my battery a lot.

Yes, my screen is usually on about 6 to 7 hrs. And my battery life is about 15 to 24 hours.
I wonder those said their battery can stay for more than 1 day, how long was their screen on?
My guess is although the battery can stay long time but the screen on is only about 6 to 7 hours.
If yours only 5 hours maybe the gsm signal was not good. Try to change to 2g only. Or change other provider.
Hey thanks for the reply i use 2g sim only and I'm 24x7 online in 2g gprs i guess the gprs can also consume that much battery I guess I'm i right????

I am sure there are people who use the tabs for different things,if you are studying or reading a lot you will be able to see how long it lasts on, for users like me that turn it on and off pretty often the battery lasts maybe longer. I use it a lot for hours and hours,but it is never on for more than 1hr.

Like user 2 posts back said. I seem to charge mine every 5 days and it is always on stand by when not being used.
good day.
No problem for me about battery on Tab p3100
I felt that having Sim card inside the 3100 drains the battery pretty fast. I was not using much of 3G/GPRS connection. So after removing the Sim, I found battery usage reduced drastically. Overnight, the battery used to drain by 7 to 8% in standby mode with Sim card inside.
I don't understand, how people can comfortable use tablet with screen brightness at 0% or even 20%... it's mystical to me..If you buying tablet, you want to get good screen quality, good battery life (even at 50-70% brightness), smooth performance and so on...I have 2 tablets, ipad 2 and Samsung 3110. I really love my samsung, but battery life totally suck on it, when you compared to ipad...
Not a good comparison, iPad has a bigger battery

Think it just needs a couple of battery cycles to even itself out.

I'm getting some decent battery life - about 20% more per day, for my average usage (ending the day around 65%), than stock (rooted). I'm running Omega v7.1.
As suggested, give it a few cycles.

I have problem with my android system, it's drain more battery than my screen on.
I just installed BBS, Gsam Battery Monitor, and Watchdog but I can't get the infromation what did android system do with my battery
Anyone can help me ?
Since 4.4.2, leaving my phone overnight would drain 0% battery (or sometimes, very rarely, 1%).
I'm using Greenify (I Greenify everything except WhatsApp and Nova Launcher) and on a typical school day I can end up with between 50%-60% of battery.
The more draining things I disabled include Google's location reporting service and always-on WiFi scanning. Perhaps you may check
Battery life is really bad , not as good as it used to be , certainly not as good as my Stock Note 2 was!!!!!!!... please any suggestions?
Nothing works,tried all the tips around here (except for rooting), before kitkat (on jelly bean mj7) I used to have that annoying android os bug, when I received kitkat, the bug was resolved but got replaced by another unexplaicable drain by "android system" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
" android system " and " media " drain are too Damn high... 2 hard resets didn't even help at all.... And I'm on the gsm only mode with gps off all the time.......
I'm really getting fed up with Samsung and their crap software , this is my third note device and the most buggy one... and it's really getting ridiculous ...
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Cheers.
All in necessary bloatware disabled. Sync on. Olways with wifi in home or 3g out. Locations disabled. Amazing battery life .

Same here. My Android System is next to the screen with 30%

mine is at 20 %. screen at 18 % haha . still got 4 hours of on screen time with H+ on all the time , autosync , and semi debloated ( as much as possible without root ). No location or freaky stuff.
have problem with the Android System also. I'm now at 25%, Android System 37%, Screen 24% (2h57m). Location, Sync off. Hope someone can help with this. Thanks.
Same here, android system is the second consumer after the display. Very bad battery life after kit kat. On 4.3 i was getting 2 days easy and now under the same condition i get 1 day.

Hmm are you on ORO? I'm from bucharest too but let's talk English here
Anyway mine today seems stabilised. Android system is the second one now but still kinda high...
I'm on NC2 now. I have an unbranded phone and i tried all firmwares from sammobile, some with full wipe and still have battery drain. I even began to get rid of some apps but i don't think it is app related. I had exatly the same apps on 4.3 with much better battery life.
Having horrible battery life with my Note 3 after the update. The android system shows up using 50%.... It's been 4 hrs off the charger and I'm already down to 70% battery life. Just horrible.
I have a question for everyone who's suffering from the battery drain in KitKat and who seem to have Android System at the top of the list constantly:
Do you by any chance have a service called gsiff_daemon as a major cause for battery drain? You should be able to check this with Better Battery Stats or Gsam Battery Monitor apps.
I'm just trying to find out something and I could be wrong but it would be good to hear from people who have a draining battery.
Anyone else not getting much "extreme power saving" when EPS is turned on? Honestly, my phone seems to drain at the same rate whether it is on or off.
At least triples my standby battery life over standard power saver mode.

10% overnight sounds like a lot. I would have to think you have an application that is causing the issue.
I get better with the normal than I do the eps. I can get through a day with normal to heavy use. And eps seems to drain just as fast

What battery level to you have it configured to become active? It doesn't run all the time - only when your battery reaches the configured level. It will not improve your day to day batter life - it helps your phone to last longer when the battery gets very low (configurable to either 20%, 10% or 5%) by turning off everything but essential features like calling, etc.

You can also manually turn it on...just fyi.
I'm going to try it out tonight with a full battery and see what I end up with by the morning.
I manually turn it on at night when I go to bed.
On my m8 in power saving mode I tap on the leaf to show the battery usage while in power saving mode and among other things it shows the Kindle app as using battery even though I never use it. My understanding is that it should only be running phone, texts, and the clock I wonder if this is a bug.

Yeah you've definitely have something keeping your phone awake at night. I'll drop 1% over 8 hours at night. With no EPS and leaving 4g on

10% over night with or with out?
You should drain about 2 to 5% over night with no attempt at battery conservation.
Also, the term "overnight" is very relative. I sleep 4 to 6 hours a night. Others 8 to 10...
Its best to describe battery drain in percent per hour %/hr

I also have strange apps running in Extreme Power Saving mode:
Amazon Kindle
Facebook
Skype
[Amazon] Appstore
What the **** Verizon?
Edit:
Add Amazon Music to that list. Just popped up now.
Edit edit:
I was wrong, it works great! You just need to set it and forget it (like while your sleeping)
Mine says Facebook, Beautiful Widgets, and Google Search have each used 1-2% during EPS mode.
I have found that Google plus, tasker, Kindle, snapdragon battery saver use battery. worst of all extreme power saving mode uses 5-15 percent of the battery usage

How are you able to see what apps are running while in EPS mode?On my wife's M7 I can't even get into the settings menu. Let alone open a custom app.

Turn mine on at 10 at nigh and its 100%. Wake up at 5 and its still sitting at 100%. Been great for me

This does nothing for me. But mine is working fine I lose about 0.33%/hr.
I've changed my mind
I turned on extreme power saving mode at midnight with 86% and turned it off at 8 am to find it still at 86%. Only tasks using battery in the morning before I exited EPS were essential apps (dialer, messages, and two others which I forgot).
Needless to say, I'm very happy with its performance. If you just turn it on and leave it alone, it seems to work as it is supposed to.
I get my galaxy s6 5 days ago.
it's seem that battery is drain very fast
For example from 100% to 57% battery in 4 hr and 54 min.
In this time i talk 1hr, 2hr of screen usage.
I use WhatsApp and nothing else just average usage.
That does not make sense
Does anyone have an idea or a solution?
Thanks

Hello guys,
I have a problem with my new Galaxy S7. The battery is draining way too fast.. I'm constantly getting around 2 hours of SOT a day and the battery lasts about 12 hours... I'm desperate... I have tried everything from turning off Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, uninstalling apps to even factory resetting the phone. The problem is still there.. Please help me
BTW, my battery level is dropping 1% every 2-3 minutes

That's weird, try disabling everything you don't need like Bluetooth, NFC if you haven't already. Turn screen brightness lower, disable fast charging and "nearby device scanning", optimize the apps in settings/battery. Then do a restart and see if it makes any difference.
Hi mate,
I was in the same boat on Monday with a faulty device that overheating and kept freezing.
What I found was I had a weird bug, and 'Mediaserver' was constantly the biggest battery drain.
So saying that, when you go to your battery stats, what is your phone telling you is the main culprit?
Try this: charge your device to 100% restart it and then unplug the charger.

Hello,
The main battery consumer when looking at the battery stats is Android System.
Take a look at this
After a couple days of owning the S7, I checked battery usage of apps
OM Customise = 10%
KNOX = 10%
I've installed Package Disabler Pro, and disabled both the above, charging the phone now and will see if it makes any difference
If the above is true, that should give me 20% back by the end of the day
