battery life mate 9 after update - Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers

Hi to every one,
I have mate 9 (MHA-L29C185) before was in B126 and I got OTA update to B138.
before the battery life was amazing and sometimes lastest 2 days without charging but now after said update I am charging the battery every single day with the same usage as before!
could anyone please advise WHY?

No difference here after the update, or if there is it's too small to notice. I'm still getting two full days of use.
Were your battery saving settings changed by the update?
Have you added any new apps?

I had the same experience but it's been getting better. I'm still not back to 10h SOT but I can easily reach 8-9 so all's good.
I assume that after upgrading your device needs to reindex everything again and that might explain the poor battery life right after upgrading. My advice is give it a couple of days to settle down.

That doesn't look right to me. Unless you have something important running in the background your Awake time should not be much more than Screen time

Please see my battery usage details & advice

Settings > Battery > Close Apps after screen lock.
Select All.
Leave it run for a day.

I updated to the new update as soon as I took it out of the package. I was losing about 3% per hour even during deep sleep. I would go to sleep at 12 and wake up at 6 and be between 80 to 85%. My LG V20 lost a total of 1 to 2% overnight. I tried resetting the phone, playing around with settings and setting applications to close after screen lock. I then found out it was the wifi killing my battery. The next night with wifi off but data on I lost 1% overnight. Now I get about 2 full days on a charge and around 8 hours SOT.

Especially that WiFi+ sucks a lot of juice! I have it off.

Gents,
Yesterday night before I sleep, the battery was 98% I closed the mobile and went to the bed.
a morning I wake up, and the battery drain from 98% to 80% while it was STBY and no activity!
I check the consumer (see attached) and found mail was from hardware & software especially Android OS!
Please anyone can help? before I update to B138 the mobile was amazing and during the night might only drop 3-4% which is normal, not 18% now :crying::crying:

Have the same experience with 138, draining 20% over the night, my iphone 7 Plus placed side by side with the Mate 9 drains 1% over night. Have done a factory reset but still the same issue. And dont tell my to close all apps when powering down the screen - it is a smartphone and not a dumbphone. Did not buy it to kill all benefits with a smartphone and big battery

looks like some apps hogging your phone so cant go to sleep and by the looks of it wifi scanning is on which keeps the wifi module on while its off consumes more batter, also have a look at the apps with push notification or apps which run in he background. At battery management check the apps which close or not after screen lock.

Whatever they say the actualization for the B138 radically changed the battery consumption ..... up to B126 was fine.
I did not realize because in the changelog it said that it optimized the consumption of the battery, it really optimized for the worse .... huawei(Idiots) go to sleep because I should have corrected the problem, but they are sprinkling for customers, I'm going to sell mine and I do not want any more xinocas.
greetings

I dont see it getting worse. Its good for me

You're a lucky one ... from the reports I see, all malta is talking bad about this update.
Downgrade do you know how to do it for the C432 B126 Portugal? That's how it worked, because I do not understand any of this.

Granted I'm not getting 10h SOT like I did back with B126 but I'm getting 8-9h now with B138 so no complaints here.
This model has been released only 2½ months ago and I've already seen 2 firmware upgrades. They're clearly active, I wouldn't sweat it.

You can downgrade to B126 using FunkyHuawei if you wish.

Battery Issues -> 32.2.A.0.224

I know I can look desperate, but this problem is driving me crazy.
My battery was good (but not perfect) in Android 6.0, but this latest update .224 is horrible! I have the same apps and the same use and with a maximum of 3 hours SoT! In one hour of normal use lose almost 10%!
Some people are having the same problem: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperi...ues-32-2-A-0-224/td-p/1137290/highlight/false
I did not clean install of 6.0 to 6.0.1. I just did clean install of 5.1 to 6.0.
There are people who did clean install and are having the same problem.
Someone here is going through the same problem?
Hey, I had the exact same problem as you (UK Generic) and I did a clean install as well. I had to do a factory reset after installing and it took about 2 days for the battery drainage to settle down. Yesterday I got about 4 hours of SOT. I usually get around 2.5 days of battery which is similar to the previous firmware.
Try a factory reset.
To be honest, I'm getting the best battery life I ever had out of that smallish 2,900mAh battery + power-hungry Snapdragon 810, since .224
I still don't get the battery life I had out of my OnePlus One (that thing was a beast), but it's better. I get home after work with between 25% and 35% battery left now. With Lollipop and Marshmallow 6.0, pre 224, it would usually be between 15~20% (25% on good days), same usage pattern.
The Z5 is still not a very good phone in the battery life department, and probably neve will be, but it's better now.
One important thing though: I clean-installed .224

The funny thing is rebooted the device and now improved! Yesterday I got 4 SoT easy! I believe to be some kind of bug that was draining my battery! But anyway I will do a clean install!

I turned off once and giving reboot again, but had not resolved! The system android was 9% and then increased to 14% of battery usage. Is now 6%, ie normal.
I got 4 hours 40 minutes of SOT today, from 100 to 2%. This was mainly browsing and some videos over the span of 10 hours. If I'm lucky I can get 12 hours overall but with only 2-3h screen on time, as I don't use the phone as often.
I noticed something odd today - Wifi is now showing at he top of my usage details and it shows an entire span of Wifi usage (from 19 days ago, I think that is when the phone was updated). It has no impact on the battery life but it's just odd that "screen" doesnt show on the top anymore. I rebooted and the same thing occurs.
The battery usage screen really sucks now - you can't even see if the phone is "awake" or when there was wifi/mobile signal etc.
I got over 7hours with WiFi connected, Opera browser to read wattpad and my phone still had 27%. I've just unplugged my phone 2 hours ago and used it to surfing GG+ and Facebook, 20% for 2hour and 10mins usage. So it's good or bad? This result is a little better than my old Z2.
Same thing here. I usually have up plug in mid of the day just to make sure i have enough juice to survive the night. Around 3 hrs SOT only. Even with the auto sync off and wifi scanning off. Location service is off too. I don't see why the standard stamina mode has been removed that usually prolongs battery. I have doze installed for mobile data minimized but still around 3hrs or so

Which option do you see it?
With normal use, (browsing, social networks, videos, etc) I lose about 10% -15% per hour which I think is normal because I use it a lot. so it may last about 6 - 8 hours until it reaches 20% and I charge it immediately, I only drained the battery from 100% to 0% one time. Because I read somewhere full drains are not good for battery. Anyway if I play games, for example Need for Speed No Limits, I lose about 20% in an hour or so. so if I keep playing it will last only 4 hours aprox. maybe less. But there had been days where I almost don't use the phone and it lasts all day. So I really can't complain. But it certainly doesn't lasts 2 days as Sony said

Got the new update promise to fix batt, did you guys update?
Without any changes on usage type (I cannot say its regular on everyday, but I can say that there is no difference between last update and and previous one) battery performance on last update is about half of the previous one! Even if the stamina mode is activated, draining is very fast on my device (z5 compact). Draining on stamina mode is larger than normal usage on normal mode (prev version). In short, this problem is very very bad on my phone. I'm wondering when this issue will be solved or this is just happened on my device?

Have to keep it in your mind.
I did clean install of .224, wipe everything. Let the battery dies completely and recharged up to 100% without stopping. I had a significant improvement in battery life!

How much battery you get?

Yesterday I recharged my H8 phone with my LeEco quick charger upto 97%.
I played games for 3 hours and 28 minutes and battery level came down to 9%.
Is this normal?
I'm running on stock EMUI and it has no root. Just has some 5-6 apps installed from play store like WhatsApp, fb Messenger, XDA....
And yeah I lost ~15% over night. ?
Yep,it's normal. In gaming i get like 3:30h sot and in normal use like 5-6h sot
3:30 while playing is OK, might be better with closing apps in background and using 720p.
During night 15 % is too much. You need either to change protected apps, or close all apps/turn off internet before going to sleep.
For me its 1-2% during night.

It's too much,i loose like 3 to 5% every night with only one app protected "Messenger" (facebook) and Wi-Fi off.
the drain overnight is due to facebook, messenger and whatsapp. they open in the background even after you close them using resources.

I don't have FB app in my phone. And the messenger and WhatsApp synced this morning when I opened them. So probably those apps were asleep.

EMUI has built in battery management, if you charge it up to 100% before you go to sleep and come back and check in the morning, it should tell you what consumed your battery

I had the same issue, but when I turn off Wifi and Data it drains around 1% instead off around 15 - 20%.
Do I have to do a factory reset to make it work like normal, because it makes me pissed of that doze won't work as it should :/
Because when I put my phone on a table and just use my computer instead, I don't want it to drain :/

First of all, use the supplied charger that came with your device. As the Honor 8 has fast charging capabilities that require the use of the charger that came with the device. While you can use a different charger to charge the Honor 8, it will charge slower than with the supplied charger that came with the device.
Also depending on the game you are playing, the power consumption on your device will vary.

If You have either a weak data/and or wifi signal where you live this will usually cause excessive battery drain even overnight because your phone is constantly searching to keep connected to your network or to your mobile carrier. This is probably not something that a factory reset would solve.
Once again EMUI has built in battery management. YOU CAN CHECK AND IT TELLS YOU WHAT CONSUMED YOUR BATTERY. If it's an app, it'll tell you which app, unless it's hidden as Android System or Android OS, in which case it's something Google related. If you don't have a data connection then the offending app might not be able to do anything, it doesn't necessarily mean you have a weak network signal. Even if it was, it would tell you how much of the battery was spent searching for signals.
bought this phone as a back up for my 7 Plus. I'm loving it, very nice and getting just over 6hrs screen on time. No where near my 7 Plus but still great. Nougat is great too.
Getting double the SOT of my nexus 5x. Very satisfied!
@Alok Bajaj, there may be an app keeping your phone awake at night. Check that in battery manager.
Also, I keep my phone in airplane mode at night.

I'm impressed to hear that. Then again the Nexus 5X had horrible battery life.
Well I'm thinking of normal use case scenario here. Normally people don't turn on and off stuff everyday and night. Usually WiFi and cellular is always on in every phone. This weird that you put your phone in airplane mode at night to save battery.

Battery Drain Issue

Hi,
I am facing a lot of battery drain issue. My phone is only a month old . I have updated toemui 5 with nougat. The battery doesn't last for more than half a day. May a little more than that. I'm losing a lot of juice even when the phone is on standby.
I keep closing all apps when I get the message for power using apps. I have disabled most of the apps too from using my battery..
Someone please advice. I also feel that the charging is very slow on my device
Do you use GPS location? Data? Wifi? Do you have strange signal on your SIM?
I found these things that they consume most of the battery.
Do not close just apps but what drains the battery in standby is a lot of wifi, data and cellular..
Try to disable that settings every time you are not useing it.. evan if two sim.. disable the one not needed.. this should help..
But then again I never disable anything and still can go up to 2 days..sometimes one day and having still 40% .. are you on the latest noughat 7??

Hi,
you install Nougat manually or OTA?

GPS is rarely on. WiFi is on all the time. Data is usually off..
The phone is a bit quirky when it comes to battery for me. Some days, the power drain is unreal and will lose 10% per hour during standby. Other days, it will sleep all night long and only lose 2-3%. Even stranger, the days when the drain is very high, the stock battery graph shows the phone with minimal awake time. And on the days when the battery is not draining, it will show constant system wake ups when the screen is off for hours. I've only had mine for a few weeks, so I'm hoping it's just reacting to all the apps and settings I keep adjusting and will settle down over time.
I think this issue came with Nougat update... Noone complained with A6..

Many, many users complained about the battery issue on noughat 7. So me to was thinking should I risk to update to N7 or just stay on MM
Couse many users tried it and than did the roll back to MM
So I tried it to and was not having any battery drain
And with the latest noughat version like the B381 I am having or depanding on model it is the B385 or the B387 it not just adds more features like better camera options and functions but it also gives the battery drain fix many already reported that the drain is now gone.. and for me it is evan better battery on B381 then it was on B360.. much better.. like 30% better

Why am I getting such a poor battery life?

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.

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.

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.

Severe battery drain on s10e. Any suggestions or solutions?

I've been using the phone for two weeks now and the battery drain has gotten pretty horrible the past week. I charge the phone up to 100% and leave it off the charger as I go to sleep from 1am - 9am.
I wake up and my phone has 70% battery left with wifi/data off. [Battery drain](https://i.imgur.com/VkAcAqd.jpg) [Google battery drain](https://i.imgur.com/qjxMkN2.jpg)
Does anyone know what I can do? Is there an app with which I can check on what's draining my battery?
Check what apps are draining the battery

You can check which apps is draining the battery.
Just go Setting, then search for "Device Care", then hit "Battery" -> Battery Usage
All S10 phones have a bug that is causing them to not deep sleep when screen is off, causing poor standby performance. This is caused everytime you receive a VoiP call, so after you receive one, just restart the phone. Being caused a proximity sensor bug.
Try off Biscuitby feature

Try to wipe disable Google app and check battery consumption. If problem persists, try to wipe cache from recovery and if necessary do a factory reset, 30% battery drain in a night without network connections is not normal. If all attempts fail better go to Samsung assistance to change the battery
7hrs: 10% when sleep, wifi on. Not good but I think it is not too abnormal. I think, samsung still have a lot of bloatware!
But on screen I thnik is OK: 5-6h mixing, 3000mA battery on a strong SOC, it's normal. My back up Huawei GR5 2017, 3400mA, it is the same time!
This solution was posted on the S10 forum and certainly helped me.
There's a bug that stops the phone from going into a deep sleep mode post making a call (audio/video) on apps like WhatsApp, Skype et al. The solution for the time being is to reboot the phone once before going to bed. I tried a lot of other things but had a ~2% hourly standby drain which reduced to <5% overnight after figuring out this solution. I have both WiFi and Bluetooth on at night.
You may try to play around with the battery saving tweaks in ONE UI but nothing worked as well as this has. Hopefully there'll be a more practical fix to this soon.
Cheers!
Being as this affects voip calls, does this mean wifi calling is affected too? I mean, that's technically voice over IP.

I tried to debug battery drain using Battery Historian. I noticed that the phone does go to Doze mode completely, but for some reason, CPU stays awake. I'm still new to the tool, will try to find out more about why CPU is kept awake all the time.
I get battery drain regardless I make any VoIP call.
Another issue I noticed is PUBG lags horribly on the phone. I tried different combinations of graphics settings, the game was still lagging.
Just tried pubg...hdr +ultra runs ok for me. No lags, maybe sometime stutters for a sec.

For the first launch, the game runs very smoothly, lag starts after that. The more I play, the more lag I get.
Putting the phone on battery saver mode barely drains any juice (Medium Power Saving mode), seems like it's just a software issue and not hardware specific issue.
By the time Samsung releases any fix, we might have to live with this one.
Since the update this last day or so, my battery is lasting way better than previously.

What update? Can you share the info that came with it? My SM-G970U1 is still on Feb. 1, 2019 patch. Although I don't have any problems with battery drain, pulled out two screenshots lately, both over about 12hrs period, one was with cellular radios on and the other just an airplane mode:
It's mostly Exynos people or the Sprint USA models \ service. No one else is having it really.
Got the March update. Exynos version. Battery drain seems a bit better at first glance. But it's not been long since the update. So not completely sure.
Got the phone today and the battery sucks lol and got an update today as well
My Snapdragon S10e never gets less than 4 hours of SoT under the heaviest use (I am constantly messing with settings, installing\closing\uninstalling apps, etc etc)
If I use it "regularly" just browsing Reddit and such, with a normal phone signal, I get 6 to 9 hours every time.
I don't use dark mode until Sunset.
I leave NFC/Bluetooth/Location on at all times.
