Battery drain while phone is off

Since I flashed Kyrillos' ROM v10 Beta and after ICS build 3, I didn't notice this problem, but now if I shut down and leave the phone off for hours (ex. in the night) my battery drains and even goes to 0% !!!
I also made screenshots for better explaining...
Is anybody else facing the same problem?
Any ways for solving it? Or is my battery fault?
Thanks for the advices

take a look at this thread, the first couple of pages should get you started on solving this

I have a similar issue,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22598720#post22598720
I changed my battery and it still persists. So far I have not found a way to fix. However I got the phone this way, so I am not sure if any particular ROM was flashed to cause this or if its a hardware problem. If I find any solutions I will be sure to let you know.
If you find any please be sure to post it up as well so I can try it out.
Thanks

You mean just kernel or the complete ROM with which kernel?
Cause I think it's most probably a kernel issue.
I tried to use app linked on first answer but I can only see stats and I can't determine where the problem is...
It shows wakelocks when phone is on, but not when it's off so what?
I don't like change every day a new ROM or charge so often battery without using it, so I'll try Kyrillos 9.5 again and if it will solve my problem then maybe is too soon for CM7 or ICS on this phone.
Stay together and maybe we can find a solution.

hold on, you mean the battery drains when you power off the phone??? or when the SCREEN is off?

seriously? I recommend you to go back to original CM7, cause CM7 itself can stand alone very well!

I mean power off, not only screen off, but also in that case I can't explain why battery drains in ~20 hours using it or even letting it on standby (I'm sure no 3g, GPS, wifi, Bt or background apps are on).
Why?
Anyway I'll give pure CM7 a try...

about the drain when screen is off use the app on that thread and determine which apps cause wakelocks and either remove them or change their settings (that's what i see on the screenies you attached). also keep in mind that kernels are responsible for about 80% of battery usage, so try out a different kernel too
however if there is drain when the power is off then there is something seriously wrong on your hardware. i suggest you take the battery out and leave it be for a few hours, then put it on again and see if it drained at all. If it did then replace your battery, if not then you probably need to take your to a service center

You confirmed what I thought...
Vertical gap you can see on my attachments happened while phone was off, so it's surely a kernel issue, but if I'm the only one who had this problem, maybe it's also a battery problem?
So, unlike what I said before, I'm gonna turn back to froyo (I think Kyrillos 9.5) after your adv of letting battery out of the phone for some hours, to see if I can return to 2-3 days of use without charging.
I'll post news when I'll get answers from my phone, anyway thank you for helping me understand.

Definitively, that was a kernel issue!
Now battery lasts less than 2 days, but even with CM7 from marcellusbe, I haven't battery drain while phone is off.
My phone/battery is 16 months older, so I'm feeling quite lucky having this battery life.
Good luck to all other Galaxy 3 users and thank again for the help and fabulous support here in xda!

Jelly Bean Android OS bug?

Has anyone else had their Android OS showing as a higher than normal battery usage since updating to JB? I updated Friday and it's been around 16% ever since, today it has 35 minutes of awake time longer than screen on..

I haven't noticed it since the jb update, but it did happen to me on ICS quite a bit. A simple reboot of the phone seemed to fix it. At least worth a shot.

I have not seen any issue yet.

I've noticed a huge battery drain with JB. I'm experimenting with a few different fixes.
The one I've noticed the biggest difference with is turning off Google Now. This was KILLING my battery. I really won't know how much this fixes the problem until a full day of work.
I've also noticed that just with using my phone for a few minutes, it gets really hot. (Back, lower right)
(I've even did a wipe and reload trying to resolve these issues but nothing has changed.)

I read on another thread that if you updated using the "non data wipe" version of the JB ROM, that this is one of the side effects.
Try installing JB fresh with everything wiped,

I had the huge battery drain after JB update, ended up disabling couple of google apps tweaking couple of location/gps settings and now I'm back to about 1% drain per hour when phone is in idle/deep sleep. For some reason either the update or one of the apps was keeping the phone constantly awake so i had to pull the battery/restart couple of times. Also for some reason the keep screen on while charging was on in the developer options, i think that's why the phone took forever to charge first time after the update. Hope this will be of some help to you guys, gl!

Better Battery Stats, which is available on xda, is a recommended app to determine which apps are causing battery draining issues. From how I use it, unplugging from the charger to when your phone dies, it is most accurate in detailing what's been using battery the most but it works best when the phone is idle. The few times I've had Android OS or Android System taking up battery, it helped me detail which app was the cause however it takes a few hours to properly identify battery draining apps which is expected.

Thanks all, I also tweaked some location settings and battery life is back to normal

Thanks for your reply......

You could try turning off GPS and WiFi when not in use. That usually helps. Try an app called BetterBatteryStats. People in the thread for that app are usually pretty helpful in identifying battery drain issues. There is a little bit of a learning curve to using it though
Edit: Here is the main forum for that app

Battery Life and heavy user SoT on nougat

Hello guys i've been using resurrection remix rom based on nougat on my opo and i can tell i am a heavy user. Full wifi and whatsapp snapchat twitter instagram fully active sometimes youtube and half brightness mostly. But it seems i only get 2.30-3 hours of SoT. So at this point any advice counts. What about your stats? I think that SoT is low for 3100mah battery. Btw my battery health is good so no worries with that. I am waiting for your replies guys. Thanks.

Well,I was on miui8 before but it was sort of problematic and I don't had any backups but I had to go for a stable rom and I was not having enough data that day so only this old unofficial cm14.1 build was there in my storage so I flashed this but this is having some issues too as it is too old so I'll be flashing Setting Os in half an hour.

Android Pie GSI

So, there has been released an A/B Partition supporting Pie GSI.
Anyone has installed it yet?
Bug list shows NFC, Hotspot and Android 9 Vendor.
What does the last one mean I have no idea. Some discussion would shed some light here.

I will try to install it today after returning home

Does anybody has installed the Pie GSI? How is it?

But people says that HOS is very good in battery, the camera is worse than OOS camera

I am right now using Pixel Experience as daily driver. Unfortunately no magisk, hotspot, nfc, volte.

I've never seen a 10 hr SOT in other Rom. HOS is amazing!

Could you tell me what do you like/dislike in the ROM? Now that you're using do you recommend the ROM or what?

It's good for a daily driver, bro.
An issue is that I got frequent Volte drops which gets okay with a reboot.
And recent thumbnail corresponds to a different screen rather than The one which I have currently( I have no idea if you understood what I told)
Cons : no modifications yet I think, magisk modules , better mods and different kernel aren't readily there for P afaik.
That's the only thing I don't like about this.
Pros : substratum is working
Very stable and consistent battery life. (idk how it manages to give 8 hrs every single time)
And has every Android P features asusual ..
Peace?

I'm on HOS beta 2 too. Yes battery is really not bad when U use device, but on standby its draining a bit too much, I cant reach 8 hours SOT with more then 1 day after charge. But I can reach 8 hours SOT if im using the device constantly.
On OOS i had always 8-9hours of SOT, and 36 hours after charge.. but on OOS I was using elementaX kernel.
Plus hydrogen still in beta so it possible that they going to fix stanby battery a bit.
It dont have all the features of Pie. There is no:
1. App slices/app action
2. Feature when u can share images or copy text via app swicher (recent menu)

I think the second feature is only for pixel devices if I'm not wrong. I had a pixel and it had that feature in the first beta itself. And I did read somehwer that it's exclusive to pixels
Maybe you are right about the standby time. I've never let my phone pass 24 hours mark.

Maybe i am to stupid to flash any pie gsi. I tried many ways, and always end up in a bootloop or in the crashdump mode.
And yes both guides here in the op6 forum.
Tried all gsi out a/b partition. Tried without wiping data (one time worked but acore fc every ms)
So how does someone get it boot without a problem?

It would be a shame then if it only for pixel devices..
But here is possibility that oneplus didn't implemented yet this feature. I hope so
