Battery

Is this normal? Battery with just 1 hour already 87%? I mean, I've seen some screenshots of this phone lasting almost a day and still with 10% but mine reaches 8h with 20% already, what could it be? My phone is just 2 months old, is rooted, the bootloader is locked, that's all.

You need to dig into your apps and see what's causing the battery drain.

Look now? I was streaming a movie on Firefox but man all that battery gone so fast? There must be something else.

Make sure NFC is off and use greenify are a couple that come to mind.

What is your screen-on time?

Greenify hibernates open apps. So it's similar ti iOs multitasking. App startup may take a littlt longr, but once you switch from one app to the next, the first one will end instead of staying in the background. I have big battery drains when ever I used google music with all the background tasks music is starting. So is witched to poweramp for music. You can even set arotation lock in poweramp.
My battery usually drops by 1 % per 45 minutes if the screen is off.
What I have though is, that if I reach about 35% battery after about 2 days, the batterry level drops significantly faster. So if I am on 35 %, it's getting time for a recharge. I never get a 3rd day out of my battery.

My battery barely last a day, I use Smart Actions and still no changes

Do you have the eb 40 aka MAXX version or the regular battery? Because all screenshots of long lasting battery is with the MAXX battery.

What is your screen-on time?

I have a RAZR HD XT925, not an Maxx, but I've seen some screenshots of this phone lasting almost 10hours and still with 10% I know it also depends on the use, but I wasn't using it that much when I took this screenshots.

Ok so what's your screen-on time? That is one of the greatest indicators of good or bad battery life.

I guess you're referring to this:
3h 12m 17s
Sorry for not uploading a Screenshot but the wont let me do it, dunno why.

This was today, battery lasted me since I went to college on the morning. I think it was because there was a "moderate use" of it, I did surfaced the web a little, used apps like Twitter, I think today was ok, although this is not the same when on Wi-Fi.

For that amount of screen-on time, your battery life seems about right.

I think it was the settings I changed on Smart Actions, it has really helped my battery life last longer so far.

Doesn't stamina mode work similarly. It reads the usability later on optimises the battery as per usage.

STAMINA Mode is pretty simple compared to Qualcomms approach. It shuts off Wifi and Data and just allows for synchronisation when the display is turned on.
With Battery Guru you have per app decisions (WhatsApp yes/ no?) and intelligent synchronisation when you need it. At least that's the theory. That's why Battery Guru needs one week to analyse your phone usage.
Just give it a try!

Yes i do use both...
Stamina mode for better stand by time while screen is off and while screen is on snapdragon app behaves great but with many xperia handsets they behave weird thats why they shut the pro app version.

Yes it does, but as it got a very limited signal strength (range is just a few cm) it's not as bad as Bluetooth or Wifi.

tomorrow evening battery guru will start to save my juice, i'll report my feedback soon!

Yea. It's working on background and following your steps on phone. This app is learning how you are using your phone when stamina know from beginning what should be done to save battery.

I've been using it for a while now, it realy helps me!

Probably Juice defender ?
You can squeeze more power if you see that your phone is sleeping more ( I mean deep sleep state) You can check that with apps like Trickster mod. Not sure if you need to have the phone rooted to view that details. You can give it a try and let me also know. Never tried that app before rooting.
Be conscious when installing apps that constantly wake up the phone unnecessarily. Further, if you network option is set to "GSM only", phone will eat way less power than compared to "WCDMA only". So use 3G only when you want it.

Owh ok thx for the info...

Hey dude, what choice do you use when ur using the juice defender??? Im using customize but theres no change
Sent from my C2105 using xda app-developers app

Actually it's better to not use any power saver apps. Most of the time they end up draining more battery than helping conserve battery. If you really need one, I would recommend Greenify. It's a good app that helps with preventing apps from draining your battery. The only downside to this is that you need root to use it.

Is that bad at all? Coz im always busy at work and dont have time to wait until its full.
Please help. Thanks.

Inaccurate battery stats?

My z3 is acting really weird and also my z3 tablet compact as well. When I check battery stats under power management it shows that wifi was never turned off when in fact I didn't use wifi at all. Here I will attach screenshot, first is the battery usage of the system, then a screenshot of gsam's own battery usage which shows I didn't use wifi at all. I also noticed my battery is draining more quickly. Who knows why this happens? by the way, my wifi scanning is off in the advance settings for wifi.

As much as possible that would be my last option. factory resetting should be the last resort, heck it's hard to set the phone again and also the tablet, would be a pain in the ass
