ok so i basically went 2 days with no charge on my TP
first day i used it and it held the charge of 100%, while i was at school i send a couple of sms messages and checked my phone every 30 mins to an hour and it still shows full charge then at the end of school(7 hours) i started using SMS again and it went down to 99%, it started to drop every time i text someone or just browse my phone, then it stopped at 92% for at least an hour then as i recieved twitter and weather updates it never moved then when i shut off data connection, everytime i check my phone battery keeps dropping constantly until 85% then it was stuck
at the end of the day my battery was at 75%, woke up 6 hours later and it was at 69%
on day 2 i started to use my music player for like one song which was about 6 mins with screen off, battery dropped from 69% to 56%
used opera browser on EDGE(since its got the best reception in the area) used it for at least 30 mins and it dropped from 56% to 32%
does this show my battery is not calibrated?? is it time to get a new battery?? or is this a normal behavior??
plz help
btw i was on EDGE Network the whole 2 days
and info is on my signature
Its not ideal, and letting it have a couple of full charge/discharge cycles might help it read slightly more consistantly. But other than that its doesnt seem too abnormal for a battery discharge. I guess its not showing you a linear discharge as you are spiking the load for a short(ish) period of time, then allowing the battery to basically rest between "hits".
As for a new battery - you got 2 days usage out of it, so unless these days were unusually light usage, i wouldnt worry about a new battery.
I think it's normal, i use wifi and music player allot so i charge it everyday just to be sure i have enough, internet is really eating battery. even if only updating still takes much. i figured out that if u r not using those 2 functions battery keeps full MUCH longer.
I have this phone for two months, stock rom, not rooted, don't use mobile internet, only wi-fi, not always on, I would say a moderate usage.
The last week I am experiencing big battery problems, it drains in half a day. Nothing new installed in the last week that could be a problem, I think I had only few app updates from the market, but am not sure if the time is the same as the beginning of battery problems.
The first time I have charged the battery in the evening, disconected the charger after the light turned green, it was about 10pm, the next morning at 6 am the battery was at 4%?! The second time the battery was charged from 15% to 65% (I had no time to full carge), from 4pm to 10 pm it went down to 3% again.
Last night I made a full charge, disconected the charger at 6am this morning, now at 8 am the battery is at 75%, I don't understand...
I don't let the apps sync automatically and I use wifi only, everything is setup not to drain the battery, no problems till the last few days...I have installed GO launcer a month ago but I don't think it could be a problem, it worked all well till now.
Any thoughts or suggestions what to do?
When you go to settings,about phone, battery usage, what does the statistic point out as the biggest user? You can also download battery monitor widget to see what is usung what.
Goodluck
It says display 58%, cell standby 15%, voice calls 14% (3 voice calls), phone idle 13% (for 4 hours after disconnecting the charger), this last one, phone idle, seems to much considering others?
Anyway, I have powered off the phone, pulled the battery out and put it back in, seems the situation is better, I will see later on.
Now I remember that few days ago the phone got frozen and I had to pull the battery out to restart it because I couldn't restart it regularly. I think it is after that the battery draining problem has begun, is it possible?
Let me start by saying that DOZE had been working great for me since the upgrade. My usage patterns haven't changed, yet DOZE seems to have stopped working..
Usage pattern:
- Phone is only used during work hours (Mon - Friday 730am - 400pm) and is at 100% charged by 400pm.
- ALL other times phone is sitting tucked away in drawer and not being used.
Up until this past weekend DOZE has been working great. I'd grab my phone at 730am and it would have 93+ % battery remaining to start my day.
This past Sunday I grabbed my phone (after sitting in the drawer since Friday at 400pm) only to be surprised to see the battery low message and battery being at 13%. I put it on the charger and let it fully charge. I then rebooted the phone to rule out anything that may have messed things up. After using google maps for a bit I retired the phone around 400pm with about 85% batttery. Monday morning, 730 rolls around and I'm down to 53% battery @#$ I rebooted the phone again to try to rule out anything that could mess it up. Phone was at 100% again by 400pm and found it's way to the drawer until 730am the next morning only to be at 56% @#$$#@. I also computed the total amount of mAh used by all listed apps under battery and it only amounted to 363mAh. That's approx. 10% of the battery capacity, not 44% @#$
I'm not sure what the heck could have changed @#$#
- Under Battery Optimation the only app NOT optimized is : Google Play Services
- Under Battery - Phone Idle shows 17 hours idle
Again, my usage patterns and settings have not changed prior to this starting to happen so I'm a bit at a loss here.
Since DOZE is completely autonomous and quite new I was wondering if there might be anyway to troubleshoot this ?
Here is a pic of my Battery Usage screen :
Same with me. Worked fine for a couple of weeks(where battery drain was about 3-4% in the night) but now battery drains by 25-30% every night.
Another day, same behaviour.
This time just prior to unplugging at 400pm and retiring to drawer for the night I swiped away all recent apps and rebooted the phone
The picture below shows all but twos apps/services.
They are Cell Standby @ 2% and Google Services @ 1%.
And that's it @#$
I think the culprit to my issue lies in WIFI ....

Disabling WIFI seems to let my phone enter Doze mode w/o issue.
Hello, guys!
I have a problem with my phone for the past few months and after clean flashing 7.0 Nougat it's still present.
My problem is that when I'm home, my phone drains not even few percent of battery. Specially when I'm sleeping, I can go to bed with 100% battery and wake up with 98-99%. BUT when I'm out, specially when I'm working since my work involves a lot of walking the battery just drains like hell and I mean like 7-10% per hour considering I don't even use the phone. Sometimes I will have 30min to an hour of screen-on time and after 10 hours of work I will be home with 15% of battery left.
Now I know that this is mostly to some rouge app that keeps my phone awake and drains my battery but I'm not really sure how to pinpoint it.
I will provide my stats from Bettertbatteystats and WakelockDetector if you guys can help me.
Thanks in advance!
Edit: I just want to explain that the straight line on the first picture with the batter drain graph is when I went home and left my phone on the table for about 3 hours. You can clearly see that the difference in battery consumption during my phone being in my pocket and on the table.
I came here because I have a severe battery drain issue. Sometimes I can fix the issue by rebooting the phone and then not using it. This issue has been coming and going I think since android 10 but it may have occurred in android 9. I had this issue a few months ago and the issue stopped on its own. To workaround the issue I was rebooting the phone when I noticed the severe drain and then tried to avoid using the phone.
For example I charged my phone (pixel 1 XL) before I went to sleep. I charged it to about 85% at 11pm. I took it off charge and went to sleep. At 530am I woke and checked the phone to check the time. The battery was at 15% and in power saver mode.. Usually I get 1 day usage (6am to 6pm, with streaming music to my headphones at the gym and messaging throughout the day) and get home with 65% battery. This issue has come back again now that I am traveling abroad.
I reset the phone to factory yesterday and only installed webex teams and whatsapp. The issue persisted yesterday. At lunch, we spent around half an hour eating and the phone was screen off and on the table and the phone dropped from 65% to 55%. I decided to remove webex teams and reboot the phone. The battery remained at 53% for approx 2 hours. I thought eurika, webex teams is the culprit. But unfortunately last night the same battery drain issue occurred and I had to charge the phone again at 5am.
I dont know that the issue is occurring until it is occurring.
The battery usage shows no usage by apps during this issue, and same when I show all device usage - for example I'll have say webex teams using 1% and screen using 1% but the device has dropped 60% of battery and there is no indication of where.
I dont mind to install a custom rom but I have not done any custom installs on this phone at all at this point.
Also I never used NFC until a few months ago for the banking app which I used to have. I just realised NFC was on yesterday and I've just switched it off. I just wont know if this helps until later today when the battery is dropping quickly. Although it just dropped 2% while typing this so I dont think it has helped. I just turned on data saver and battery saver and will see.
I am at a bit of a loss - has anyone else had this problem and found the culprit or a fix?
Update - battery saver and data saver does not stop the battery drain. 2% drop in 20 minutes with phone on the desk with screen off.
I decided to give up, re-install webex teams and go for breakfast; while leaving nfc off, battery saver on and data saver on. At breakfast, the battery did not drop at all. Uptime is 9 hours 50 minutes (cant remember if I rebooted before breakfast) So almost 10 hours later and I have been using the phone over wifi on occasions and a few phone calls and whatsapp. The battery level is now 55% so it appears that the issue has gone away at the moment.
It's driving me nuts as I cannot work out a trigger. It almost seems like something within the android system is doing something and it's being hidden from the systems battery usage calculation. 3rd party apps also do not show any battery drain but the battery drains. If the battery was faulty then I would expect this issue to not get fixed after reboot (or even by itself). I have reset the phone 2 or 3 times now and the issue is still present afterwards.
Tried to google for answers and didnt really find anything apart from one guy saying his phone was draining and getting hot at the same time. Mine does not get hot.
I suspected malware or something like that but I dont see how it can be possible that malware is there after factory reset.
OK I think I have made some progress - although can't be sure because this issue does go away and then comes back! However, this time I am refusing to reboot my phone so I can work on it. I am flying back tomorrow at 4am and so I need battery to last as long as possible. I have installed all of my important apps that I need to use. Given the issue is there when I have only 2 apps, the issue cannot be related to the apps I removed so I installed all of the important ones.
What I have done now:
1. turned off dark mode
2. opened the app permissions for the "google" app and changed the location permission from "always" to "only while using the app".
GPS Location is always off unless I am using google maps anyway but it did not stop battery drain previously!
As soon as I changed the permission app for point 2 above, the severe battery drain stopped. Take a look at the screenshot. You can see the severe drain on the left of the graph. Then the very severe drain was when I Was actively using the phone during the issue. Then I charged the phone. Then I changed the permission and you can see the graph have a flat horizontal line which is showing next to zero battery drain! I do not have battery saver or data saver turned on anymore. And I have been using the phone a fair amount.
Touch wood and fingers crossed. May be this will also stop google from emailing me every month with a google map breadcrumb trail of where I have been going.
EDIT - uptime of the phone is 28 hours and counting. Although you can see the charging points in the screenshot.
I have the same issue. My battery was just recently replaced too. I'm going to try the suggestions in your latter posts and see if anything improves.
