Misterious Battery Drain - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys,
These days I've been noticing that something is draining my battery really fast. I checked and only half of the time my device is ON it is in deep sleep. The other half is on 400Mhz frequency. I check battery stats on Settings and OS is consuming it all. Yesterday I didn't use it and I got 1h of screen, and 25 minutes the day before. And again 50% of the time in sleep mode and 50% used (but I didn't use it)
Something is not letting my phone go into sleep mode. It's been happening for a week now.
Any clues on how to check deeper what's causing it?

i dont know whats causing it but i had it to in the night it lost 5/6 % of battery and i started to hate it but i installed greenify 3.0 build 5 and donate version so i added every single app and some system apps in it and it helped me allot only 1% lost in the night about 9 ours so its perfect for me now just try it i hope it helps

Loosing 6% in the night is not a problem. Actually, I turn on plane mode and I never loose any percentage in the night. My problem is that I loose all my battery percentage

did you try soft reset sometimes it helps calibrate battery?
hold volume down and power button wait tiill it reboots
and maybe its a app that you installed as last is waking up your device ?
and have tried a factory reset and what rom are you using ?

I have just tried what you said. I'll be testing it today.
However I calibrated my battery when this starting to make sure it was well calibrated.
And I thought I could be an app but it would be under Battery Settings and show us very consuming, wouldn't it?

yes that true it would show you but if i were you i did a factory reset fullwipe and use a good rom like alexis rom the latest one and install greenify aswell but first test what you are doing right now if its not good than you have no choice just full wipe clean install a good rom
First try this you can check it with this app also wakelock detector

battery at different levels when i reboot

Hey dudes i have been having this issue for some time but I feel fed up now...I am running CM 10.1 on the DHD and sometimes as I use this device my battery meter shows that I have used all the battery which prompts me to recharge...funny part is that mos times if i reboot i get the battery level back up to something like 35 - 50%; Now this is crazy since once I used a battery calibration app (free version) hoping to solve the issue but this issue never went away even after calibrating the batter with this app... I wonder if there is a way to solve this or maybe reset the battery or something...Thanks in advance
Maybe you should do a Wipe Battery Stats, From CWM
1. Charge 100% of Battery
2. Enter on CWM Recovery
3. Choose Advanced - Wipe Battery Stats
4. Reboot and leave your phone plugged for 15 min. then you can unplugg and use it
maybe this could resolve your problem:good:
I've noticed something similar on my DHD too. Sometimes the percentage can increase or decrease between reboots... A few times it's gone down really low, to say 11%, and stayed there until about the time it would actually be 11%! It's probably related to my battery being pretty old.
@manuelchef89 If I have understood correctly, what you have suggested happens automatically when you do a full charge anyway. Maybe someone who knows for sure could confirm.

you should buy a new battery
Sometimes is a kernel problem, but you should wipe the battery stats
Take out your battery and see if your battery get any fatter than before, if it's bigger/fatter, your battery is dying.

[Q] What is this thing that is eating my battery? com.android.systemui

Rooted -- Calkulin's Stock "Battery Saver" ROM -- Xposed Framework -- a few mods from XBlast Tools running.
First off, a Root Explorer search for com.android.systemui returned nothing.
What is com.android.systemui? I don't think I saw this in my usage until a couple of days ago.
Why does 31 seconds of CPU and 1 second of keep awake = almost TRIPLE the battery use of 12 minutes of screen-on time?????

It's the actual System User Interface. So most likely a combination of the rom and xposed are causing this. Also, dirty flashes of ROMs can cause this.
If you installed a new xposed module and noticed a battery drain the uninstall that module. Otherwise remove other xposed modules. You could always try a frew full wipe in recovery as well.
I have had this issue with mostly with dirty flashing which is my queue to do a clean flash. It's also possible if you restored any apps with data, like from Titanium Backup, could potentially cause this as well.

you got caught up in a lie, with buzzwords that are pushing for you to use the rom. theres no such thing as a battery saving rom. all those scripts/mods being used in the rom are just buzzwords. battery life is all dependent on how you personally use your device, how you set up your device, and your data/phone signal quality. a rom will not save you battery.
Thanks for the help, Tom. A visit to recovery to wipe caches and fix permissions and a reboot caused this -->
simms -- I do understand that. I am not really disappointed in my battery life -- and it doesn't seem to have changed much in the week that I've had the phone. But the reporting of it had, and that sort of alarmed me...

wow, your android system is high, even though only 10% battery was used. a reboot might fix that though. you might have to go through your settings and setup again, disable stuff like google location reporting/history(it wont disable your location).

I'm beginning to think the issue I'm having is in the reporting -- not actually a battery use problem. I've only had the phone a week, so my data base is small, but I haven't really seen bad battery life nor any real change in it. Even with some use and a bunch of time fiddling with the mods and stuff, I've yet to go to bed with less than 50% left. Mostly, more...
Here's the latest pics. com.android.systemui is back on top in the overview with 36% The detail page shows 39% and a whole 2 seconds of CPU. That just CAN'T be right...

Which battery graph? You mean the current usage graph I showed in the OP, from Battery Monitor Widget?
Re Bluetooth: I just leave it on, so when I step in the car it just connects to the car. No muss, no fuss, no bother.
I suppose I could try turning it off and see how much battery I save. I know with my previous phone (EVO4G) the point at which I started leaving the bluetooth on all the time didn't change my battery life to any noticeable extent.
Here's battery monitor widget current use. The EVO idled at 70 - 95 ma. This one does seem to draw a lot more at idle. I don't know what's "normal."

Not very interesting. It keeps resetting, every time I plug in to USB to transfer the screenshots to my mac for posting here. I'm not leaving it plugged in very long -- I just move the pics and unplug it. I unplugged it this morning at 7:30 AM. It's now almost seven hours later and I'm at 93%. That ain't bad. It's a gradual descent -- no big drops like the one in your post.

Mine stats those are from my nexus 7 2013, Sot of around 4 and still 55% battery left.
I just showed u for sample. A simple restart should fix as simms told
I m on stock rom with x blast tool never happened with me....u can try to use ur phone in safe mode and see...I know its a system app but u can give a try with bluetooth off. Or flash a diff rom and see
If your phone is vibrating a lot and you have extra UI elements installed this seems normal.
When you only use a small percentage of the full battery smaller drains appear large.
Bit off topic, but have you thought of using WiFi to move your files over? No messing with the wire and you could even automate the task.

[HELP] H60-L04 Battery drain (20h in stand-by mode)

Hi all,
I am facing some battery issues for a month now. It dropped suddenly from 3 days autonomy to 20 hours and can't finf the reason.
Tests I did
0) Identify apps consuming battery (google service and so on...). Did many changes but at the end same problem.
1) Update from B521 to B860 (OTA)
From now on, all tests are donr without any additionnal applications
2) Wipe cache + wipe data
3) Downgrade to B521 (first B800 then B521)
4) Test in stand-by mode. Still having the issue! This is wierd to me. Battery drains exactly the same with phone in stand-by mode or not!
5) Test with different SIM cards
6) Test forcing 3G/2G (no 4G). A bit better (about 1 day without using the phone)
8) Test without SIM nor google account connected... same issue
Any ideas?

Thank you for your suggestion.
I'm currently running "Spectrum" theme. Which I guess is the default one as I haven't change anything since reinstall.
I'm facing battery problems since I'm running Marshmallow...
In battery settings it shows that the display is draining battery the most. There's no specific app shown.
If I get 2 and a half hours of screen on time I can be happy...
Sorry for not having an answer but I'm feeling with you.
Just installed "Better Battery Stats" and "Wakelocks detector lite" even if I am not rooted (followed tutorials for non rooted devices).
Hope I get more info tgis way.
I'll post results for experts analysis
Just uploaded better battery stats dump after first full discharge (see 1rst post)
If someone can have look, as I can't see anything strange...
I guess it is the update, it seems it's not fully optimized yet.

Is anybody see something stange on BBS attached on 1st post?
Hello, I hope I can help with this information. i've been all day with airplane mode and just Wi-Fi on and with 3h 36m of screen on time. The second picture shows how the system is half of the time awake and the other half in deep sleep. I always need to charge this phone every night, because when I'm at home I'm almost always below 20% of the battery. I'm at the latest version B860, but I've have had this battery life since I bought this phone like three months ago.

Hello Vicioxis,
In my case I used to have at least 2 days without needed to charge the device. It changed suddenly to 20h max without change the way I use the phone.
Actuality, it doesn't seems to change anything wether I'm using the phone or not...
I added some thumbmails and a new BBS dump file in case somebody sees something wrong:crying:
As you can see, the device is mostly in deep sleep but I have a lot of wakelocks!
Has anyone here installed Kangvip ROM or the stock or any other? Also I feel the smartphone almost always warm at the back-right. Is this normal? Should I try to install any custom ROM to see if this improves?

OP6 Always Awake, Poor Battery Life

Hey guys,
I bought OP6 8/128 version and first, the battery life was ok, I was getting 4-5 hours of sot. Now, I see that battery is discharging in constant rate and something is keeping my phone awake all the time. Firstly I thought it was Instagram when it helped when I force stopped it. Now I'm lost 20 percent overnight and battery stats show, that all the time my device was awake. Cannot see anything suspicious through gsam or better battery stats as I believe the put it under android system. Help anyone?
Did you already do a reboot?

From personal experience, i found that updating OTA was the culprit. To get around this, download the full update from Oneplus and update that way.
Ever since i started doing this, I have not had the battery drain issues i used to have. Also, wipe cache before booting phone after update.

So I should try to do fresh install from OnePlus site? Awake time drops when I clear recent apps, so I believe this is either Instagram or Facebook doing this. Really weird. Even without awake time shown in graph, I got 35% drain in 1h sot and 11h standby, this shouldn't be normal, right?
It's crazy, because I used to have a good battery life

for testing, can you uninstall Instagram and Facebook for 1 day and see how your battery life changes.
I can tell you right now Instagram has a prefetch service which causes close to 1-2 hours of wakelock per day for me. I have root so I can disable it but there's no other way from the app itself.

You can just set the app to not use any background data from within Android. I have it on all that's not important for me.
Loose about 0.3% per hour without any apps or mods on beta 2.

So, the story continues... After following your advice and restricting background data for Instagram the wake up time fixed itself, however battery is still draining. Screenshots attached (facebook and time sensors used??)
I will test every available option and if they won't work, I would consider moving to beta oxygen os. Now I'm on 5.1.11
I am ready to trace this to it's roots for people who will potentially encounter this problem in the future.

It could be your spotty connection. Your awake time is fairly high when the mobile network connection goes south. Can you try using something like 3G instead and see if the awake time goes down? As well as the battery drain?
Naturally 3G uses less battery but if you see a drastic difference then it could be the tower connection you have. When the signal gets worse the modem tries harder and effectively uses more battery trying to stay connected.
Have a look if Facebook is allowed to use unlimited background data, I believe there is a setting for it on 5.1.11 aswell (I'm on beta,its a beast.)
There are many reasons not to install Facebook apps on your phone, and this is one of them.

Background data off both for Facebook and Instagram fixed (at least it seems) the overnight drain issue even with airplane mode on. Last time I lost 20-30%, tonight less than 4-5%
Just when I thought I found what was causing the drain, take a look at this: 20min sot and 20% down in 4.5h
Screens attached, still searching for the issue. Android battery stats show no awake time, but something is definitely draining (app usage insanely high on 80%)

So strange.. I feel we still have 3 options here.. 2 old and one new.
Flash 5.1.11 without wiping anything (you won't loose data so it's just an upgrade)
Flash beta 2 dirty as an upgrade, (you might get device corruptednat boot, press power 2 times and forget about the message) you won't loose any data or apps this way either.
Last option is the least fun, clean install of rom :/. If you ask me, I'd go for beta 2 option, if you wanna run something you know is stable go with 5.1.11.
I didn't run into any issues with beta 2 but some are (I believe user error here..)
Changed my mind.... I have 2 more posible fixes.. (I think)
Hmmm, one more thing I just came to think of is try using SD Maid, now this is just a guess that it will do anything at all..
The other thing is flashing a kernel, something could have happened there after an upgrade or something (just a guess.)
I'm running flash kernel now, it's really good

Thanks for your thoughts, thinking of going to beta 2 since I am on 5.1.11 right now. As for flashing kernel, I've been there with custom roms and kernels with several other phones and in the end most of them (except galaxy s5) were working better on stock ones after a while... However, doesn't rooting void the warranty on OP6?

Beta 2 is really good
48 hours and I'm at 18% with soon 9hrs of screen (usage and SS in battery thread)
As of warranty, no, you will still have full. However this shouldn't have to be done as a "fix" , i was just curious if stock kernel somehow got messed up :s

I would suggest doing a factory reset or uninstall your apps one at a time. Considering it's saying kernel wakelock (could be false positive) I would start go straight to factory reset. If going to Android Pie beta 2 is overall stable and forces a reset anyways, then go ahead and do that instead.
Im just getting 5-6hours SOT on my new op6, is this the normal battery life? Was planning on flashing custom kernels? Any suggestions?

So, I can close this case as SOLVED.
Today, phone was mainly on 4g, doing photos, videos, calls, 4 hours of spotify via bluetooth. 3h50min SOT, 16h standby and still 27% left. Dirty install of Beta 2 fixed it! Thanks for your help!

Possible Fix For Rapid Idle Battery Drain

Been having really bad drain issues on standby so decided to experiment. I've possible cured my phone from the drain issue. It involves an 18 watt charger and the usb cable (obviously). First plug your phone and charge until it says full in battery app. Second switch off phone leaving it on charger, wait another 5 mins just to make sure the phone reads the battery as full.
Third, now press vol up and vol down plus power button together keeping hold of them until the phone reboots at least 4 times, wait for to shortest reboots and let go, power up and wait for battery to say full and then wipe the device health services app completely including the ambient light data.
Reboot again if you want to while your still plugged into charger and wait minimum 12 hours like a new battery should be charged
Hopefully you cured the idle drain, if not,try install the device health services beta app on apk mirror and wipe the app again, hopefully that should be fixed, if not then your issue is completely different to mine.
Also make sure that you don't have any sound connected apps that are jamming the on the sound in background. If you did it right you should notice a clean slate in the battery app with the amount of days the phone was built or preset.
Mine said last full charge 55 days ago.
Cannot be done without charger and cable.
Or you can just reset device health services without doing the button press, i just wanted to start a fresh.
Just an update, my phone is 38 hours in with 45% battery.Just idle with minimum use, a few phone calls and updating of apps, half hour screen on all activity. Now i would say this is miraculous considering the phone was draining 1% every few mins. Even a factory reset and ota didnt fix it. PLease be aware that im not providing a miraculous cure for everyones battery drain, and not responsible if it doesnt work for you, i think a few ppl will gain from it aswell as few ppl wont gain from it. LET me know your experience after trying.
From what i can gather device health services wasnt working as it should and was killing my battery.
This looks like witchcraft. What is rationale behind your spells?
BTW, if you reboot the phone 12 times, you might get 3x the battery life. Even better, then charge it for 48 hours to get 6x battery life. I think we're on to something, but I am not sure what it is..?

your funny, look it up. Theres a bug in device health services, causes the phone not to sleep properly, the other part of holding the buttons returns the phone back to factory preset calibration, hence hardware. You will see when holding the power buttons normally it takes 10 seconds to reboot, still holding the buttons it will cycle faster on the next reboot, i suggested 4 times to make sure its done. If try it without the charger and cable, it does nothing, wont even reboot.
The 12/24 hours i mentioned is to charge like you would a brandnew phone.
No one has to do it if they dont want to, im just sharing.
If i was conning ppl xda dev would of removed it or flagged it.
Im not pushing for extra batterylife, normal operation is what i was looking at.
Ive updated the device health services from apk mirror, now battery drain is back. That just proves my theory of the app bugged up. Have to reset the stats again and hope it fixes it, again.

ive had no look in using the playstore device health services, battery is back to draining 2% every few minutes, the latest version on apk mirror or the beta are the only ones that work properly, battery stats wont even populate on the main battery usage tab. just says unavailable. So, if anyone as got the issue where the stats dont show on main battery usage , download the beta or the latest device health service app, install it and reset the battery stats. Hopefully the stats will show and drain as gone. Ive had best results in the beta.
This the latest version, not reset stats yet, just wanted to show what stats weren't showing untill I update the app.
This what you get when battery stats are cleared
This is an example.
what does your battery app say for screen on and idle time on full battery?
This is the dumbest thread a long time. What the actual f**** you're talking about? Uninstall that crappy Cloud app that runs for 12hrs and draining you battery. Look at your own provided screens.

The cloud app as got nothing to do with what i'm doing, it doesn't drain my battery. The screen shots are examples. I could as easily say your post is the dumbest post i've seen in a long time, as you don't even know what i'm on about. 1% of my battery in 12 hours is not draining the battery. Easiest thing for you to do is just ignore this thread.
This is my idle state usage after clearing stats and unsticking device health services

Its idle state, not use the phone state. The infos there for idle(not using the phone) state. There was only one app in app usage tab, carrier settings used 3%,if you turn on wifi the carrier settings doesn't use battery at all, total usage was screen, idle, carrier settings and playservices.
You can tell when device health services is stuck, the phone is always warm, never cold. Hoping android 10 as fixed it, but i doubt it.
Do you still have this issue? According to AccuBattery my phone drains about 5% per hour.

Not now, seems to have solved it. If you wish to try it, after you done the steps on android 10, open app usage tab and look on the graph to see if phones gone back to factory state, it will read something like 20 or 30 days ago last charge. Keep an eye on the population of the battery app and check if phones cold in standby.

Is this supposed to show before or after the 12 hours charge? Done all the steps. 4 reboots with the buttons pressed, then installed this beta on the link below and clear the data of the app, but the battery data looks normal to me.

EDIT:
Forget about it. Just show 43 days at the graphic. Will charge it for 8 hours for now and use the phone like always. Will post the results.
