I couldn't find an F1 thread about battery and SOT, so here it is.
You will agree that battery life is one of the most important functions nowadays, especially on a new phone like the F1. We know battery life and SOT depends on what type of apps & your personal usage, but it is still good to have a benchmark for your own battery life to compare against, so we can see what more we can get out of our F1.
Please show us your battery life, SOT and any tips, tricks you found, and any suggestions for best settings, what to do and to avoid, to maximize your battery life.
If possible , please use a battery monitor and try to post a screenshot.
Hopefully we can all benefit from this discussion.
Tks!!
For those who are not aware already, Better Battery Stats app is a great app to use for detailed battery data. Its available from the PlayStore for a price....but here is the free version for XDA users. If you think its a great app and want to support the dev then you can buy the paid version on Playstore. Download the app to your F1 for free from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809 and you can use it to post screenshots of your SOT/battery stats etc.
Note- I found charging my F1 with the Qualcomm Aukey Charger is "almost" twice as fast compared with charging with the original F1's factory OPPO charger. (I dont work for Aukey, just sharing tip for those who want much faster charging on their F1).
Charge with a 2A charger, this phone will be charged twice faster. But be carefull dont use cheap non brand charger. You will ruin your phone.
Hi there! I have a Oppo F1 (f1f model) since a week and coming from an HTC One S.
This device battery life is better than my previous one. I can stand one full day of moderate usage with GPS, gaming, music, 4G all the time and Wi-Fi half the time. On what I consider heavy usage, this device doesn't last one full day and need to be recharged. I'll try to get BetterBatteryStats captures in a few days.
I've had the F1 for about a month. I use it heavily for browsing social media etc. Not much SMS or phone calls, mostly FB messenger, some youtube and spotify. Battery lasts all day.
only thing I hate regarding the battery is the constant "abnormal app consumption" notifications. -its not abnormal, im using the damn app, of course its going to use power you stupid OS.
The GPS is not as accurate as im used to with more expensive phones but the upside is ive never had the device overheat whilst using GPS & spotify whilst plugged in to car power and sitting in the direct sun during driving.
The camera is pretty good.
I am not a fan of ColorOS. its full of junk and i hope i can get rid of it one day. Other than that, the phone itself is pretty capable for AUD$200 its a bargain.
hope this helps, cheers AL
Im getting approx 5 hours SOT with moderate usage not gaming, in comparion with the same usage my LG G3 was getting 3hour 40min SOT

Did u install 'Ampere' app from playstore? If yes, can you give a screenshoot from the app while charging?
Because, although i charge with 1 A, 2 A, or VOOC charger, the input just 450mAh. Whereas according Ampere app, Oppo F1 can take 1500mAh input while charging.

in Ampere I also get 450mAh also. strange. but the oppo original device charger is almost twice as slow, takes ages, compared to my Aukey Qualcomm charger. thats why I never use the original charger. just wondering you are on ColorOS or Project SpectrumOS?

Color OS. Maybe, in more few weeks again many developers can bring kernel that unlock the high speed charging potential.
anyone tried colorOS vs Project SpectrumOS battery comparison?
Not a real comparison but clearly, Spectrum OS consumes more power. I'd say 20 % more. And Spectrum often tells me that Bluetooth or Wi-Fi is consuming all my power in the settings section on battery life. It still needs optimisations.

Hi,
today I found this extremly big battery on ebay, but I can't really believe that high capacity...It's got 50% more capacity!
Maybe someone here already got it?
http://www.ebay.de/itm/2300mAh-High...311?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item35b453faff
it looks slightly thicker than the original.

Try it out and tell us.
I think it's fake though.
I still prefer my 3200 mAh one.
Why do you think it's fake? There are bigger ones out there!

Because it looks quite fake and it's on ebay as well. It most likely isn't truely 2300 mAh.
Could anyone test this akku-packs until now? I am thinking of order some...
For value, quality & actually results look no further than the Anker 1900 mAh. Plus it doesn't require a larger battery back. It delivers better than anything else in my opinion. Especially if you refuse to carry a brick in your pocket like those extended back batteries!
what du u mean? 1900 anker and 2300 dpd x14 BOTH don't need an own back-cover, do they!?
They are for real
I use 2 of them. They work. They extend the life of the Sensation 4G by about 60%. They do not require a special backplate. They do not run hot according to battery utilities I have. The case does not get hot if I charge it with the phone off, although, of course, the battery charges more quickly. The battery does not seem to take a lot of extra time to charge, but then I usually put it on to charge overnight.
I can get a solid 12 hours with all the goodies on, browsing, a little GPS, full screen brightness, 5-8 minute timeout, fully syncing, etc. I would call my settings flat-out power hog settings.
They seem a little picky on chargers. My car charger is fine. Standard 500mAH USB cable to computer is fine. The OEM HTC wall charger only gets it up to about 2/3's charge. of my 2 aftermarket wall chargers, one juices it all the way, the other cops out.
err. you guys do realize that even if the specification of mAh isn't fake, the fact that its rated at 4.2v should scare you into not buying this batery. sensation battery is often rated at 3.7-3.8v range.
edit: whoops. just saw that its the charging limit of 4.2v which is the same for the other sensation batteries. nonetheless this seems too good to be true
Can't find it on Ebay

Or the ChiChiTec 1900mAh, it's only 23 bucks on Amazon, 30 bucks for 2, and it's an instant 20% extra battery.

There is a break in the life because the phone shut off. Its been happening since I got a new htc battery
Pyroice mt4gs
If your on the stock battery then that is normal dude.
Get either a Mugen or an Anker.
Delivered via candygram for Mr. Mongo.
I figured bit I just wanted to ask some people who know what they talk about.
Pyroice mt4gs
i have the stock battery that came with it and have great battery life on 1.0.3. Where did you get your battery? Could you have gotten hornswaggled? Also have you tryed recalibrating your battery using the advanced option in clockwork or the Recalibration app https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration
I have used the battery calibration app. Should I try doing it in recovery?
Pyroice mt4gs
I'm pretty sure they do the same thing, recovery verses recal app. If you haven't already, i would drain it completely and then let it charge with the phone off overnight to ensure it's full. and then run recalibration. In the meantime Ill pay attention to what i get on a daily average and we can compare. You shouldn't be > 70% after 3 hours doing nothing.
I'm on pyro ice with the stock battery and have the same problem. I just stay near a charger!
How long does a full charge last?
A lot depends on signal quality as well.
If I dnt use the screen too much I can get around 18-23 hrs on good signal, but worse with bad.
sent from HTC Doubleshot pyroiced
I've had pretty good luck with the Anker. I'm using Juice defender too. Usually make through pretty long days.
Sent from my Bulletproof_Doubleshot 1.1 using Tapatalk
If I actually let it die I could get 5-6 hours. If I don't use it at all I get more. I called htc the guy told me its normal to get this kind of life. I think that is unacceptable.
Pyroice mt4gs
I get a max of 13hours on mine. No matter what I do I cant make it any better. On stock battery though.
Is the Anker 1900mAh battery that much better than the stock? I've seen people report at least 20hrs on heavy usage.

signal quality, background apps, also im using only one connection type at once only and switch manually between 2G / 3G mobile net.
and yes, im on anker, ordered the two + charger package... but just be aware those who have it, the UK dealer is resending me a new charger, as they tell that anker warned them its dangerous to charge through the USB part of anker charger, at least with those that were traded out in december for me...
I think when I get paid I'm going for the 2 anker batteries and charger.

I do just about the same. Flashed with the ExtremeUV kernel, though. Given our horrible network and no 4G, i usually just stick to 2G because 3G causes my phone to heat up. When am at home I switch to wi-fi. All my setcpu profiles are on powersave mode except on call.
i went through the battery recalibration process too, set my brightness setting to manual 20% during the day and 0% in teh evening.
I can't possibly think of anything else to increase those hours.
I will be ordering one of those ankers. I guess the stock battery will make a good secondary battery.

Every time you let this type of battery completely die, part of it will never work again and dies forever.
Much better to stop at 2-5% then go to full empty, you hurt your battery for no good reason.
To properly break in a new battery, you need to bring it to full, then to that 2-5% mark 4 or 5 times in a row, it exercises the cells and gets them ready to work.
This may be helpful:
Everything you wanted to know about Li-Ion batteries but were afraid to ask!
Edit:
And this:
Battery:
- Spare batteries for the MT4GS? Anker for the win!!
- Mugen Power batteries (1800mAh and 3600mAh) for MyTouch 4G Slide?
- Anker or Mugen???
- Generic 1800mah batteries from Ebay?
- Can we use Sensation Seidio batteries?
- external battery pack! Awesome!

Staff, recently bought a parallel battery for my Nexus 5 with a capacity of 3,200, I know it's hard to battery actually have this capability, but my Nexus brand 2,300 fixed and it is impossible that this battery is 100% identical to the original.
Does anyone happen to know how to change the Nexus / Android to even acknowledge this larger battery?
Grateful!
With G2 3000 mah genuine new battery...
Gaming ~2 hour (not so demanding game), 4G browsing 1.5 hour, SYNC ON, was using GPS for ~30 minutes, talking ~40 minutes. lasted ~33 hour, watching TV shows which i had downloaded to the phone.

Just drain new battery so phone shuts down itself. then charge it for ~3 hours. then drain it then charge it ~3 hours and drain it, after that charge it until it will say 100% then disconect charger. That's it.
can you please explain again?
did you say that you've managed to purchase a 3200 mAH G2 battery that fits exactly as the original N5 battery?
if so, is it that the N5 is not recognizing the additional capacity?
is it possible for you post pics of the new battery and a link where you purchased it from?

Looks like the Galaxy s8 doesn't quick charge if your using it while its charging!
http://wccftech.com/galaxy-s8-fast-charge-display-off/
While using it I have noticed a message pop up warning about the battery discharging faster then it can charge. At first I thought it was a bad charger but I guess not. Only noticed the message when the phone is under heavy load like full brightness youtube UHD streaming or gaming. This might be why they claim longer life span for the battery. Hope they update it to at least give us the option to always quick charge.
Like lg's phone (had g2 and g5 ) it doesnt fast charge when the screen is on, I might be wrong but i think it's pretty much stantard to avoid overheating.

Coming from the One Plus 3T with Dash Charge and the difference is pretty big. Kind of a bummer the Galaxy s8 charges at Quick Charge 2.0 speeds when Quick Charge 4.0 is around the corner.

Qc fast charge 2.0 , 3.0 all raise the voltage that is going to the phone to increase the charging speed, but doing so also heat the battery , especially qc 3.0 . I remember my g5 getting really hot ( like hotter then anything i've manage with my s8 rn ) just by charging for 20 min with the screen off, normal usage already heat the phone so if they allowed fast charging while ppl play games and stuff the battery would definitely become way too hot and that would be unsafe ( note 7 i see you ) . Qc 2.0 don't heat the phones as much as 3.0 tho that's just samsung being reaaaally safe because of what stated above.
On the other hand the dash charge that op use only raise the amperage , so all the excess of heat stay in the charger that is working hard to give your phone less volt than qc 3.0 but at a faster speed resulting in the same charging speed, it maybe even be faster with the dash charge from what i've read. With that heat staying in the charger they allow fast charge with the screen on because it won't make the phone overheat beyond safety point .
Sorry if my english is meh it's not my main language tho ^^
Considering how this is a charging thread, I had to drop a weird concern. I got my phone on launch, and I usually charge my devices using the Anker Powercore; the phone charges fine, however, it stops at 84 percent, and doesn't go beyond that. Unplugging the cable, and plugging it back in fixes the issue..
I noticed the issue is only when charging through power bank.

It's saying fast charging but take a watch, with screen on wait 10 min and see how much % it get, then turn it off wait another 10, it will get almost twice of what you get with screen on. I had mine for one year so I'm pretty sure that they lower the voltage when the screen is on even tho they don't say it.

Wrong. They never said it would be qc3 or anything other than adaptive fast charge, which is their take on qc2.
Also this has been same for 3 years now, so fail to see the news here.
Some publications are rehashing same test year after year, then publishing it as though it's a new thing, just for clicks. Some are genuinely clueless. And yet others are making it seem as though samsung removed the feature (which was never there in a first place), due to fears of another note7 situation.

I tested many replacement battery for Nokia 8.
A lot of people have trouble buying a new battery with sufficient capacity.
I checked some batteries. Original is identified as HE328 -3030mah -nominal capacity.

Fake Battery available on internet looks like this:
Many retailers report that the batteries come from the manufacturer. Unfortunately, it's not true I checked 3-4 batteries like this in picture. All batteries had almost 50% real capacity.
My almost 3-years original he328 battery have best capacity like below:
I've decided to test the battery from aliexpress Wonkegonke
This first charge cycle I am positively surprised at the performance of this battery.
I hope the information will help you fix many phones.
This post will be edited next time. Almost 20hrs usage.
Almost 24hr from last charge. Phone used normally without any issues
I end day like with my Nokia 8 with original HE328 battery.
Ok i want to show you battery health "WonkeGonke" from aliexpress after 4 sessions.
additionally, I checked battery capacity via ADB in PC:
Real capacity is 2829 Mah 91% from 3090 Mah. This is good capacity i think
Thank You
Thx man :good:... nice to know that when my battery dies I wouldn't have to throw away my beloved Nokia 8
quick question... what app r u using to measure the capacity?
This app is named AccuBattery is installed from Google Play. Nokia 8 is one of phones which can measure battery capacity almost accurately
Uh, "Genuine" looking fake batteries are in action as always ?. I learned what means genuine battery a couple of years ago. Most of them haven't the nominal capacity as it supposed. Beside this fact, they haven't a proper NTC resistor (which is temperature sensor). I want to ask a question even i know the answer (maybe it makes me surprised). Could you check battery temperature with different scenarios (daily and heavy) via AIDA64 and post the screenshots here?
I can check that, although as I remember, one of these batteries displayed the temperature probably correctly.

Design capacity seems to be 3500 so at 2800 seems to be at 80%? The question if it will stay there. I cannot find the link in Aliexpress by the way
For better marketing, the manufacturer gives overstated parameters.

can confirm is the battery temp sensor always stays at a fixed temp or it is actually working?
i bought 3 times the battery my Nokia 8. All of them only have around 1400~1500mAh and the temp sensor always showing 27deg.
Further testing found out all the fake batteries can't do Quick Charge at 7v,9v, or 12v. It only can do 5v 3A charging.

I experienced this problem on my old Zenfone 2. All batteries i bought were fake. They all had same capacity (2400mah) and fixed temperature. It was really hard to decide which is fake/genuine.
After several years, my NB1's battery is getting older and probably I'm gonna replace the battery in a year. So it would happen again and it's good to know which one is fake. Can you post the links you bought from or images of the battery? It would be really appreciated and helpful for us?.

I bought from Shopee Malaysia. I see most of the seller posted the item image is different than actual product received. From the picture you can see the bottom of the fake one is different. And the fake capacity battery is half the thickness of the original battery. Anyway, I ordered the WONKEGONKE brand from their shop in AliExpress. Will try out and update here.

My fake batteries always quick charged. When I'm at home I will check how wonkegonke behaves.
Wonkegonke is one battery what working better than any other fake. Please provide accubattery stats.

Much thanks brother for all you work and information. So here's is my story, same problem, some said software issue, Google Services and its fellows, OTA, even holy motherboard.
But after wondering and desperately hunting internet, I finally found the culprit and replaced battery from a local store, it was exactly like you posted and that old one on the device, again after around 7 months, now I'm having same issues, so was planning to go visit official nokia care and get replaced despite the cost, but just moment ago, saw a comment posted by an indian user having same issue even after replacement from a Nokia Care Center.
So i want to consider this time, is that one from aliexpress that good ? and working fine till date ?
