I'm getting FANTASTIC battery life! I'm at 63% right now, after close to 12 hours of total time (with 1.5 hours SOT), with an estimated 20 hours left. Standby time is the key here, when I am not using the Moto...the battery just stops in time. It's wild.
I will have to say with the following...
Active Display Disabled < Not necessary
Adaptive Brightness Disabled < around 10% to 15% brightness is honestly totally fine for outdoor use. It's crazy. I use 1% to 5% at night.
Xposed Module: MobileRadioBugFix < Most important!
My Moto X is now immortal.
GSam Battery Monitor is showing on average 2.0% to 3.0% loss per hour when I am using the phone.
While SOT does slowly kill it, standby time is just crazy now. When I lock the screen, it's almost like the battery gets frozen in time.
For anyone who is struggling to get through a day, try these stuff out!
Men, I don't need to fool with it. 20 hours a day before plugging it in is fine for my needs.
Stock out of the box after a week of power cycles.

Oh but she can do so much more. I'm impressed, 3,000mah with 1440p had me worried...but Motorola has buckled the F down and did a great job!
Agreed Moto did a good job with the battery.

I usually get 6+ hours of SOT

This is terrifying. Coming from a oneplus one where I was used to getting 6 hours sot over 18 hours. I switched to a oneplus 2 and have only been getting 3 hours sot over the course of a day, thinking that's terrible. Sounds like the Moto x Pure isn't for me, which is a shame because I really do love the Moto features and way it feels in the hand.
dam i didnt wana root but xposed is great so far my battery is lasting me day, i will be on my 3rd power cycle today lets see how it goes....

You know that module doesn't actually cause a change in battery life? It simple adjusts the calculation of battery drain due to mobile radio. It will not, in any way, cause your battery to last longer.

I was told the Radio gets stuck on in LP, and that is a huge waste of battery. Either way...I don't know what to tell you but the phone is just immortal now lol
I couldn't imagine looking at my phone for 6 hours in a day!!! It seems a little much. I would respect the ability for my phone to stay on that much but I can't see the necessity.

The tabulation of what was being measured as battery use got stuck counting battery use as being caused by the mobile radio. this module just affects how battery stats are counted.
We shouldn't have to root to get great battery life. Just disable Moto Display, keep brightness low, and control when apps like Facebook sync. Android M will definitely bring improvements.
Not to mention, 6+ hours SOT is ridiculous. Put down your damn phone.

With my OPO and Kitkat at my last job I used to pull 7 to 8 hours of SOT a time.
Not ridiculous at all... if you send roughly 500 texts a day, watch a lot of youtube, play a lot of music and browse the web a lot.
Also, rooting = Taking control of your device.
If you want the best, don't be lazy, take it into your own hands.

And ruin the non-replaceable battery? No thanks. Plus I don't want to be tethered to a wall, that's dumb. It's 2015, not 2000
The entire process of unlocking, throwing recovery+flashing super su takes less than 10 minutes. Did the entire thing on the can.
+ Greenify is the best battery saver ever. I'll never not root because of that.
Having said that. the DOZE feature in Android M is pretty slick. My Nexus 6 went from 2h SOT to 4.5 SOT on the last developer preview So hey, maybe that'll make everyone happier

Well said bro.
I'm looking forward to Marshmellow...but I won't be able to use it till Xposed is ready. Too many things I need, stock too useless.
Thanks for the heads up on the xposed module, with that installed I can actually get through a day now. Screen on still drains but standby is awesome now!

For my oneplus one, 4 to 5 hours of SOT by the time you go to sleep, wake up the next day and have another 3 to 4 hours SOT = 8 hours sot. THEN I charge the phone.

How are you managing 5-6 hours screen on time on mobile data and what are you doing? Nobody gets that without some serious tweaking and the screen brightness basically off... 5 hours of continuous use on WiFi maybe, maybe, but not on mobile data.

You may be the only owner of this device to ever actually type this out. I mean, battery life is fine, but if it was actually GREAT, it could have been one of the better Android devices ever made. Without it, I like the phone. And nothing more.

I never noticed that "average" feature on GSM, but upon looking at mine, I am averaging 2:31. Yikes! I use xposed, Ambient display, and some other screen things like f.lux though. Not sure how to quantify the difference.
But to the OPs point about rebooting 10 times a day..I sometimes lose 7-8% of battery when I reboot so this is even harder to believe.

I'm going to try the CPU settings you have and see if it makes any difference for me.
Haven't had the device that long but I'm around 7 hrs SOT. No problems hitting 6 hrs.
Non-rooted, basic setup, sync on, data on all the time though I'm in a terrible area for T-Mobile so I've set it to 3g lately..... Most battery lost browsing the web. No WiFi.
Since I don't get a lot of notifications, or spend a lot of time on the phone or have social apps = good battery life.
I've got over 9 hrs SOT with my LG optimus g pro rooted and locked down. Easy 7.5 on that phone no matter what.
Got 9 hrs using my neighbour's Moto G4 Plus.

There is just no possible way this is true. SOT (screen on time) is not the same as the time it takes the phone to die after you pull it off the charger. Even the Nexus 6p has an average of like 6 hours SOT and it's got an extra 450mAh. Right now I'm running this phone totally stock unrooted without many apps and my SOT varies from 2-3 hours. Back when I was rooted and spent a lot of time doing battery related tweaks (which also happen to kill a lot of funtionality) I could get just over 4 hours. My sister in law has a G4 (non plus) and averages 3-3.5 hours SOT.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/review/screen-time-t3239509
Always over 5 hours sot but it's not enough, I had a LG g2 and could get 7+ sot but that was only a 1080p screen, if Moto had chosen a 1080p amoled screen this phone would of been unbeatable.

I can honestly say 5+ hours SOT is possible. However, I achieved that with airplane mode on for a few hours and was reading a Kindle book with about 35% brightness, white text on black background. This requires little processing power and minimal touch interaction. On a regular day 3-4 hours is norm and this is checking emails, reading forums and news, reading some on Kindle, and about half of a day on 3g (not LTE). I don't get many emails, texts, or calls, so notifications are at a minimal (I have Moto display on). I also use Google now to track weather, traffic, packages, etc and have both Google and Moto voice off (just can't justify it when the mic button is just a tap). I just cannot see the SOT time you are claiming, especially if you are not rooted and heavily tweaked. I'm happy with my set up though and would not cripple my phone in the name of battery life.

I'm wondering if we should be considering the quality of the batteries being put into our devices. Look what got past the QC inspectors at Samsung's manufacturer. Makes me wonder how well they control their processes and how low a level of quality are they willing to ship out their door. Hmm...

How? I can only get 2:30 of screen, if I use it a lot, 3h...
Screen brightness is the key... The display panel is what takes most of the battery, if you turn off auto brightness and turn the brightness down to near zero you will get much higher more battery life.
The real problem with this device isn't the battery, it's the display panel (in regards to battery life).

My N6P is currently in the "shop", I got the dreaded boot loop of death. While I wait for it to come back, I've been enjoying the MXPE, excellent phone. I just wanted to add my comment to the N6P getting 6 hours of SOT. I bought it new in Dec. 15 from Google and the very very best SOT is around 3.5 hours. I'm a medium user I would say; email, messaging, web, some social media. I've tried most of the N6P roms and kernels and maybe with Franko's kernel I eked out a bit more, but never got more then 4 hours and that was rare. I generally have my display turned way down, turn off notifications except for messaging, phone, greenify. Nougat was better then MM, but not much.
So far the battery on the MXPE is pretty on par with the 6P for me.
The OP of this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3249458
does pretty much exactly what I've always done, and the battery life is within 30 minutes of mine, I'm currently not rooted and can't disable as many continuously running background apps.
I've always cringed when I would read reviews and people on here about SOT whenever I was considering buying a device. But each person's way of using the device is unique -- one bad app can kill SOT, even using chrome as your main browser will put a big dent in it.
I would say, other than data being on always instead of on WiFi, I use my device like I've always used a pc or tablet.....
If I was only getting 3 hrs SOT I would only look at devices I could get an extended battery case for OR I would be tied to an outlet.
Nonetheless, 6+ hrs SOT is possible for this device -- regardless of what anyone wants to *believe* is possible
Hello,
I am the new owner of a Honor 6x and the phone is absolutely great but i cannot have a decent sleep. It loses minimum 1% per hour.
This night, from midnight to 6AM, i've went from 54% to 48%, that sounds enormous...
Power saving mode is enable.
Phone has already been resetted.
I also updated last night to nougat.
I am in 3G since 4G is knowing to consume a lot, had this also on my previous phone.
Compsumption Level are Android system 20.85%
Android OS 12.76
Hardware side are Screen 21% and PHone Idle 7%
If i uses the 6x continuesly, i get easily 6SOT i don't know how to avoid loosing so much during sleep.
Thx, i am now performing a new factory reset for Nougat.
Wifi off when screen off is applied
Mobile network have been remained on but i do now change them in 2G.
I close all apps manually before closing screen.
I've tested and lost 1% in one hour with NO data and NO wifi..., the screen has been just very shortly checked 4 times...
I will compare after the reset.
Thanks.
By default, EMUI will kill a lot of background apps during sleep, so you shouldn't experience much battery drain. A factory reset may help you.

This is all because of the Nougat update.
Nougat update is draining battery faster than MM version.
Moreover officially Nougat has not been released for Honor 6X still.
Try to downgrade to MM for better battery.

Well u sound true , OP plz try to enable the option to close the apps automatically when screen off. Wil save much juice
Thanks, i saw everywhere else that closing apps in the background sound a good idea but is in fact asking more juice to the system.
I don't know what to think anymore.
i've did 6h14 SOT with about 55 minutes of gaming, brightness between 15-30 depending if outside or inside.
It seems that making full charging cycles (i've had the phone only since 3 days now ) is helping a bit.
Still, i am very far from getting 10 hours as i have seen in these forums

Do the math. Additional 340 only. 8 hrs, maybe even and a half. You can only do that if you take away the core Android processes, take away cell radio, take away touch screen inputs, and there you go. With 3340mAh you might even reach 24 hrs of display time. I don't care if you don't believe me.

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Honor 9 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
great device, get 5hrs of SOT under moderate usage
Wow, 8.5h sot is a lot! Maybe I need to check the battery guide out. On the other hand I was playing with the Honor 9 all day because I have it the second day and got 7 hours sot with 5% left. More than enough for me normally!
So, how does it compare to honor 8, is the additional 200mAh makes any noticeable difference?!
That's all I need to know
I think the battery life of the Honor 9 is ok but could be better. I am used to Samsung devices with OLED display technology where you get better SOTs. In my case with my Honor 9 I get around 7 hrs SOT and 1.5 days of usage without charging (with some battery tweaks and screen brighness to 50%). In comparision with my old Galaxy A3 I could reach easily 2 days which was perfect.
If the Honor 9 would have OLED display it would be amazing. Maybe the next Honor will get one, then I definately would buy again.

Yes I will reported when 50% of battery gone. Brightness is on 25-30% and no data saver in Chrome. You use data saver? Is it discutable if this can help improve battery, better to say not much tested data savers. I think android must work more if want to save some data...
Click to expand...

Yes I use data saver in Chrome. I think it does a good job and it even tells you how much data it saves (in percent). For me it is around 15-25% less data for different websites. Less data exchange means also less battery drop and faster site loading. I would recommend it.

My honor 9 only gets about max. 4 hours of screen time with battery saving on and it doesn't last me a day with average use. I play one game but it's not a heavy one (clash of clans) but only for about max. 30min/day. My battery even drains faster than my galaxy j5 2015 (who is 2 years old) which is dissapointing. I lose about 5-8% battery for Facebooking for 10minutes.
Is there something wrong with my device or is it just my usage?

I get the same thing with my Honor 9 with the same model name. About 4-4.5 hours screen time when doing no power intensive task what so ever. No games. Just some web browsing using Chrome and always using Huawei Battery optimizer with minimal amount of apps running in the background.

What should we do with our device?
Should we just wait for updates?

I'm still in time to return my phone to the shop if there are any problems with with or if I don't like it. So I could basically ask for a new phone and give mine back to the phone. Would that solve any issues? Or should we just wait for updates?

I'm happy with the rest of the phone, so I'll keep mine. I just think it's a shame that the battery life isn't better than this on my device, but maybe it can get better with future updates.
Hello xda community
Just bought this phone few days ago(brand new) and I'm experiencing bad battery life(at least for me).
So, I installed those apps: Whatsapp, Snapchat, Instagram, Sofascore, Deezer, Uber and of course GSam Battery. These are apps that i've always used and never had problems with them in a term of battery life.
First major problem is idle. So, what the hell, first night went to sleep with 100%, woke up 7 hours later with 80%, so I went into settings and disabled wifi always on and the other night it was better but still bad, went to sleep with 100 and woke up with 87%...
Second problem is SOT, I've been using phone for messaging mostly, some browsing and taking pictures and that's it, only on WIFI and NO GAMING at all and right now I have freaking 3 hours SOT and only 26% of juice left which is awful for me. I used to have that SOT with Galaxy S6 and that phone is known to have very very VERY bad battery life..Forget to mention: loacation off, data off, bluetooth off
Do you have some advice? What can be so power-thirsty on my device?
I will post screenshots with all my instaled apps and all the battery stats
.
In other terms this phone is a beast even in 2017. Performance is even better that on my dad's S7, camera is really good, I kinda like EMUI but battery is really starting to be a porblem for me so please help me if you can. Thank you very much.
Here are pics

Install BetterBatteryStats to know more what's eating your battery.
Update after 20 days of usage:
Most awsome thing is idle.. i turn on airplane mode when i go to sleep, wifi is on(but set to never stay active), and after 8 hours of sleepong, literally 0% of juice is used. Amazing. And through the day, when I have data turned on, i check my phone 2 hours later and maybe 1-2% is used :good:
SOT is always different, depends a lot(A LOT) on usage, from 2,5 (data on, bluetooth for headphones, camera,maybe location turned on sometimes etc) to 5 hours (wifi only, bluetooth location and data turned off). I think battery life is okay, what makes it great is that 20-30 minutes is enough to charge a lot of juice with quick charging

Sorry my post is confusing..
So, average 4 hours, but if I tend to use a phone heavily than not more than 2.5-3 hours. When I say heavily than I mean data on all the time, brightness above 60%, some bluetooth connection, lots of social media and browsing the internet.
When I'm at home, wifi on and data off, brightness 30% cca, I can get around 5 hours max.
Is that okay considering your sot?
The first sets of SoTs you posted are unusual. The last seems more on point, but a little low.
I average around 4-6 hours SoT which is average for the device except if you really crack down on all battery consuming apps and services.
4-5 hours for me consists of maybe 2 hours on mob.data and the rest on wifi, location on and a few minutes of gaming/maps/camera.(Brightness on auto, so pretty high most of the time)
If factory reset didn't help, you might want to try to manually update your system either via OTA or through some of the methods found in guides.
Generally I'd say something isn't quite right.
Though you might want to add your model number emui version

This one is a little older but i remember trying to simulate heavy use with this one, mob. data is on when wifi is off, it just doesn't show because of the skin.
I also have one with 6h and 17% left with mostly wifi so that's that
Edit:
Oh hang on, actually this one was the two days and barely used one.
Well you get the picture i guess

So here is my classic day. Awful battery life today..
At least in my opinion.
Unplugged at 10 AM, data on and wifi off, used basic apps like Whatsapp Instagram Chrome.. listening music with blietooth headphones for one hour apx. (Deezer-but offline!). Didn't really use my phone a lot today.
7 PM only 2 hours SOT with 35% juice left.. like I said, barely 2,5 hours of SOT I can get with data on..
I uploaded screenshots of my battery life, my EMUI version and all my apps installed.
Can someone figure out why my battery lofe is so awful..
Can't install betterbatterystats cause I don't wanna root my phone yet.
Thanks for advices.
