Hi folks,
since some days my battery drives me crazy...
Last week i flashed CM10 by nk111. Nice ROM, but my battery lasted only for some hours with normal usage. So I went back to MIUI...problem stayed.
Yesterday I flashed Jellytime and replaced the battery. The problem stayed as well. At 6 pm battery was full, I restored my apps with Titanium, used it a bit and when I was going to bed at 10 p.m. battery was 81%. Getting up at 5:30 this morning --> battery was 41%.
After the battery was full yesterday night I used display for maybe 10 minutes, why there are 36% battery usage by th display?
WTF happened to my system by flashing CM10 by nk111???
Any help is appreciated!
PS:
Baseband-Version: 20.72.30.0833U_3831.17.00.310
Kernel-Version: 3.0.50-g6ea80e4
First, do you have Google now on. It really drains the battery. If that doesn't help install better battery stats and let it go through a couple of cycles, it will help you pinpoint if any apps or wakelocks are draining your battery.

I don't use Google Now. I use the same apps withe the same intensity than in better battery times...
Could you please give me a recommendation for a battery stats tool?
Thanks!

Use the search, you'll find it in both xda and playstore it's called better battery stats

U have an app or something that is running when screen is off.
Find the app and del it.

app called carat could also help you find the battery sucking thing. It's a bit more simple than battery stats, you'll like it if you're not an expert.
it doesn't need to be a new app that is sucking power, it could be the poorly made update of some app that you're using for a long time.
I installed both apps.
But in both I can't find any kind of statistics about consumed power by apps or something similar, am I that stupid?

Bbs needs to run for at least a full battery cycle to give you a clear picture, if recommend running it for at least a day

I get max 24 hours battery life , sometimes 12 hours , so it's not something to worry. If you speak 2-3 hours and WiFi on another 2-3 hours that is the battery în my case 12 hours max.

IT IS something to worry, cause battery behaviour changed dramatically while I didn't change my usage of the phone.
40% battery loss over night should be a clear indication of abnormal behaviour.

you must run carot a day or two, than it will display some apps on the first page and the approximate battery life you get if you kill them. read the manual also..
Yesterday in the evening I realized a 96% entry in the Partial Wavelocks section - AndroidMediaScanner. I freezed it (I know where my pictures and music is located...), did a full load on the battery and for 4 hours the battery remained at 100%. I really thought the problem is solved...but in the morning...31%
But - the 'Media' entry in the android accu stats is gone, I think this is a partial success.
In the BBS app, there is no remarkable value - the biggest is 3,8%.
When I watch the graphs - WiFi and Awake is nearly completetly blue over the whole night (unfortunately, I can't take screenshots right now for any reason).
I'm a bit helpless right now, will charge the phone now and keep an eye on BBS the next hours/days.
androidmediascanner shouldn't be the bad guy, it's a system app that we all have. maybe your battery is the problem...

I inserted a new battery last week without any change. Don't think both batteries are broken.
The common way to solve this is to do a fresh install. Leave it for a day without any apps yo see if it is ROM related. See if the battery life improve. Install one app per day and monitor your phone awake period with screen on, it should be almost same.

Yesterday night I made a full wipe, installed Jellytime and Gapps and went to sleep...
In the morning --> 67%.
Very odd, normally this would probably indicating a defect battery, but it is new!
Maybe a hardware defect?
Maybe RRU Problem?
Hi,
I have a similar problem here. I was using the desire s for a long timne with stock rom (2.x android), a full battery was enough for ~2 days. Then I rooted the device and installed CM10 (NK111 alpha build).
2 things changed:
The battery is empty after 24h or less.
The wireless network is worse than before. This is my subjective impression but there are places at home or in the office where wifi worked before and stopped working.
I'm starting excessive tests (disabling everything, removing apps, running carat) during xmas holidays to find the reason.
My guess what it might be: to root the device I did a downgrade, including a radio downgrade. Now I run baseband 20.23.30.0802U_38.02.01.11 which is known as "Saga Test RUU" and has the lowest version number of the RRUs listed in the forum. I did not found anything about this in the forum or with google but maybe this is the reason.
My average battery stats with normal use (whole day, used the phone a few minutes):
~30% Display
~25% Wifi
~17% Mobile Standby
~5% Android Os
For comparison, my Motorola Defy has in a similar scenario ~5% Wifi and ~3% Mobile Standby
I've seen a couple threads praising their s4s for how long the battery life and in one case how much it flatlines while it's idle.
Since I've had mine , I've noticed the opposite. Using it very casually throughout the day with some light texting it'll drain probably about 30-40% while doing very little of anything.
But the part that stands out the most is when my s4 is idle overnight , it'll drop about 17-20% while others have reported seeing very little loss.
Has anyone else expierenced poor battery life? Is this normal for my s4 to do?
The only features I have turned on are; Wifi, Sound, Mobile Data, and Sync.

Seems you have a run away app that is sucking your battery. If you are rooted, check out Better Battery Stats on xda. I get at most ~2% in an hour but normally its not even 1%.

Weird.. I don't think I have any apps that are running wild in the background. I'm not rooted atm though.
If it were a mystery app running in the background, would it be listed on the battery stats screen showing the % each program is taking up?

You said you have sync enabled, how many different accounts or apps are syncing and how often? If you have 4-5 accounts syncing every 15 minutes, your phone will never sleep and you will see massive drain

One of the problems I had when updating to my new S4 was the memory card. Going from the S3 to the S4 was not good. The S4 didnt like the memory card and was causing high Gallery cpu/battery usage. Reformating the card fixed that problem.
Now, my Galaxy S4 has the best life of any Android I have ever had. At the end of the day, it still has 40% battery remaining with an screen on time of around 4 hours.

I think you're aiming in the right direction here. That was one of my guesses was that sync is draining it fast.
Just checked what i had under accounts. The only ones that were syncing were Google (toggled off a few of the features i don't use so i only sync what i do use, drive , calender etc)
The only other one that was on was Samsung account which i just toggled off as well since I don't have any need for that to be synced up whatsoever.
The only other apps I can think of that actively try to sync are my gmail and facebook. I'm not sure how to view the frequency for gmail to sync, but facebook is set up to check every hour.

Yeah I have more accounts than that and I see 4+ he's of screen time a day with 30-40 percent left at the end of the day. I would try formating your sd card as stated above as that is also a known problem

Not I personally. My buddy his wouldn't charge past 46% no matter what. Not even with new battery or after a factory reset.
I tho notice better battery life with this phone then on my s3.

Here is mine on little usage. About a good 2-3 hours of screentime, everything turned on, max brightness, and live wallpaper...
I also had a 64GB MicroSD from my Galaxy S II that I did not format.
From the screenshot, the MediaServer is from the live wallpaper, and Maps -> almost every location setting in maps setting is checked... which will change soon... :good:
FWIW, GSMArena did a new battery test for the i9505 after the recent OTA update:

Overall, it saw a slight improvement.

Is there a free app that is good for checking out the stats. Looks like the Better Barry Stats is paid.
Yea just checked bbs and it showed that any smart screen feature turned on caused wakelocks 7 hours straight while I was sleeping. disabled and Now I barely get battery drain and my phone goes into deep sleep. Sucks cuz I liked using smart screen features.
I'm getting itty good results I think? Formatted memory card installed.
How does this stack up against your guys

Look on XDA, its free.
Also after the OTA update my battery life is about 2x worse. Before I would lose 1% overnight and now i lose about 3%. Before I could get 4hrs screen on time with 20hrs standby, and now I am at 35% with 10 hours standby and 2hrs 6min on screen on.
Going to factory reset tonight.
I have only slightly better battery life than my rooted inspire 4g with a 1230 mah battery....
I cant WAIT for the custom roms and developers tweaking these phones...there is soo much potential for this device!

Hey guys. I recently went back to 25r in an attempt to get better battery. And I am. What's strange is that in the first 50% I'll get 3hours soc. But I'm now on 18% with 4hours and 10 mins. Seems kinda strange. Not using the phone any differently. I do have a Google play services drain but its only 14% and I don't think its doing that much harm
Any one else?

Posts like this don't really help as we need to see what wakelocks are going on with your phone as well as the number of times its waking up your device.
The whole post-50% is a coincidence.
It's completely normal for you to have a 'faster' drain on the lower 50% of your battery life. But what Zephik said is right, it's impossible to say what's happening on your device without you providing some accompanying analytical data.

Im quiet happy with my battery, get about 3 hours soc until 50% and then i get home from work, so its not a massive issue for me. What i find weird is the 49%-1%
Drain a hell of a lot faster, not really an explanation as to why it does that?
Hoping the 38r update that comes out next sunday makes it even better though

Install a app such as GSam / Wakelock Detector / BetterBatteryStats, on your next battery cycle running one of the 3 apps listed, post up screenshots of the listings so we can further discuss this. Or you can take a look at them yourself if you know what to look for.
You'd be looking for partial wakelocks / wake ups
Hi all,
Although I am more than pleased with the Ascend Mate 7 (silver edition) battery life, I was used to try and save as much battery as I could on my Gnex.
Do any of you use any apps or settings on the Mate to stop it's battery from dropping when the screen is off? I've got Greenify installed as well as Amplify, but although apps are hibernating I still get that popup that app X is using battery in the background. I've also got the usual strange wake locks keeping my device from falling asleep (*backup*, framework services...) , but I'm trying not to get too bothered by them because I know nothing about those sort of things to start messing around.
What do you do to keep the battery life to a maximum?

Battery life is fine for me, I like to have speed so no power saving for me, brightness high (auto), everything allowed data etc.
I just dont worry about battery life, a day of heavy use and I still have a bit left so all is well.

It is the modem that is the biggest battery drainer in this device. best battery tips is use wifi if possible...
This will give you a few more extra battery life.. up to 9 hours screen on time.

Hmmmm. So you say: kill mobile data when you are on wifi?
Do you know of an app that does this automatically, switching between wifi when there is a trusted network and using data when there is not?

This is my observation, people who use minimal amount of 3G or 4G data and wifi instead is those who get 9 hours Screen on time.
People who use no wifi and only 3G/4G and maybe 200-400 MB per day are those who get 4.5 hours of screen on time.
This is nothing unique for this device however this modem is for sure not the most power efficient modem out there..
This is also the reason why people get astronomical differences in battery time.
Do you guys use titanium backup? What apps do you freeze?
I've got it installed but lack the knowledge to use it safely. I am interested to know as well, also which system/stock apps to uninstall safely

Had my mate 7 delivered yesterday. After using it till 2% battery I then charged it up for about 4 hours till fully charged. I took it of charge and went to bed. This morning it says 76% how can it use that much power in standby? It did have a notification about Google play services waking up many times. Any fix? Surely this isn't correct for a phone to do.

Hi @vimto25 I don't really know how to shut down the google play services wake ups. I've tried to use System Tuner to limit the wake locks like in this and this thread, but ultimately I found it made things worse on my Mate 7. Have you installed Better Battery Stats to see what is really keeping your phone awake? Then just search around this forum for a solution or post your wake locks in the better battery stats thread!
Could it bee (this is a laymans opinion) that since this was your first time, your email was busy syncing all your mail?
Hopefully someone else really knows how to help you out! At night I always use the ultrabattery powersave option and never lose more than 10%. And if I do, I usually have a strange wake lock myself, like google play services, *backup* or framework.

I only have 25 emails synced which they synced when I set the phone up earlier that day.
I have looked how frequent it.synced and it said every 15mins which sounds very frequent but all my devices I've had emails syncing around 10 mins.
But I'm guessing it's email that's my problem hence why it said 40% with over 1 hour cpu time. Hmmm I've changed the sync time but I can't see that helping much.
I think I'll do what you have done by enabling power saving mode at night. I currently use normal all the time.
I LOVE this phone just need this small problem sorting.

It would be nice if someone can list some information on how he has set up his phone for battery performance.
Anyway i always use ''smart mode'' of the battery,
i have 5 email accounts in push , always pushing , but my battery on 8 hours a day of screen on and messenger chatting, on mobile data or wifi always on its battery lasts like 1day and 3/4 on !
you can enter the phone manager app and disable the user apps from booting up. just live the ones you need, like whatsap, messenger, google service, gmail, super user or smth else.
Hope it helps !

I'm going to see how it is again tonight. I may restart the phone before bed and see what happens. So far battery isn't very good for me but I can see it has potential so it's how the device is set up the end of the day. Just didn't expect my battery to drain that much and esp using email on standby.

After every charge. I lose 10% from a full charge in roughly 2 hours. But I still to manage to to get my phone over a day of use and 6hrs of screen time. WiFi is always on for me.
I am really excited for upgrading my x play to marshmallow 6.0 from lollipop but after using it a while i am facing very less battery backup on marshmallow as compared to lollipop I merely get 3 hours of Screen On time and the battery last for 15-16 hours on normal usage.Is anyone else facing this problem !!
if you are rooted , try amplify and greenify, it helps a lot. you could also try to edit doze settings to make the device sleep faster than google intended.
mine Sot was reduced after MM, so i started tweaking doze and installed Greenify+Amlipfy. Now i get approx 50min-1hr SOT per 10%. i am not a heavy user, i do lots of browsing and whatsapp on data and i get around 6 hours SOT from 100-40%..never have drained the whole battery ..i guess it'll go beyond 10hour.[as battery saver kicks in at 15%].

Now i get approx 50min-1hr SOT per 10%. i am not a heavy user, i do lots of browsing and whatsapp on data and i get around 6 hours SOT from 100-40%..never have drained the whole battery ..i guess it'll go beyond 10hour.[as battery saver kicks in at 15%].

disable auto sync from accounts settings and locations....limit background data for Google play services..see if it helps. don't root now first try the existing optimizations.

if you need good battery then you have to cut down core functions according to your use.
I need the phone for whatapp and browsing so I turned off pretty much everything else like app auto-update I don't need Google to search every 30min if a new version is available, turned off NFC when I am not using.
@Himalaya saxena are you on stock rom or which one ? Check battery usage in System / Battery menu and report it. If you want people trying to help you please be more accurate and provide some detailed information and evidence.

NFC only uses little power. I keep it on all the time and still manage to get 6-7 hours SOT for every full charge
bluetooth is using extremely small amount of battery, too
it has LE profiles, so no need to turn it off, if someone is wondering about that
It seems there are quite few people with battery issues around... My phone lasts around 16hrs too, with everything pretty much turned off and very moderate use. No games, no videos, no music, no Facebook, no IMs. Just some Chrome, phone calls etc. My 2 year old Nexus 5 would last just as much, which is kinda laughable, given battery, SoC and age difference...

by going into
settings > battery and then clicking the three dots on top right > battery optimisation
Check that are apps getting optimised.
Also one more thing, By going to
Security > apps with usage access (at bottom) > Turn off the usage access of the apps there (would be play store and play services)
Do click the three dots on top right and touch the show system and another app named "motocareint" would show up. Turn it's usage access off also.
After doing all this, charge your device to 100 percent and then use normally till it hits 10 percent. Then share your battery stats.

thanks for the tweak will report it back
Here's another issue: Roughly one hour after unplugging, used it at home, within WiFi range. Only Chrome and Tapatalk, 45mins SOT. 9% battery missing, but only 3% showing up here.
Edit: With time, the gap between actual battery status, and per-app usage stats gets bigger and bigger. Here's @ 70%, with app usage only giving 19% altogether.
