Hi all,
is there an App to make the battery fully drained (benchmarks, for example?)
Useful for having the battery circuit reset after some charges...
You could just let your G1 stream music over wifi - for example using DroidLive lite from market. Constant usage of wifi should drain your battery really quickly
Another option is to play a movie - the player keeps the screen on so you'll just be able to leave the phone alone and do something else while it plays.
you know that charging the battery (even when it has more than 80%) is not really damaging your battery?
I seem to be having some issues with my stock battery stats showing false info, have attached some screens of both the android stats and the stats from gsam battery monitor
One plus running cm12 nightly, clean flashed 15/02/15 build and then dirty flashed 19/02/15 build,
My stock stats are showing my screen as using 9% battery with 3 and a half hours screen on time seems stupidly low, i use auto brightness and about 30% brightness),however WhatsApp is showing the same amount of battery drain with only 2mins of app usage. When I look at gsam it shows totally different info.
When looking at these stats it might be worth noting that Spotify and all stream were streaming music to my apple TV for 2-3 hours and only show around 4% usage on battery stats.
Any help would be appreciated, not sure if I need to recalibrate the battery? Iv read that on a few threads while searching for info
Actually running an S6 ROM on an S4. Thought I might get a better response over here though. The new battery history screen (under settings) has been dumbed down for some reason. I can no longer see a graph with screen on time, awake time, phone signal, etc. Is there any way to see this info, or is there an app that mimics the old settings screen?
Use Gsam Battery Monitor or Better Battery Stats if you're looking for more comprehensive information regarding the battery.

Hello,
In Battery menu I can only see apps that consumed 1% or more battery. Anyone knows if there's an app or a way to show all the apps that consumed less than 1% battery?
Note: I'm not looking for an app that parallely tracks the apps battery usage (there are plenty of apps for this). I'm looking for an app that you can basically install when you are at 20% and read the stock battery information and displays it with more detail or less filters. So basically show stock android battery stats that is missing from the battery menu.
Thanks!
OneUI built-in Device Care app doesn't show full details of what is draining battery. It fortunately shows the Screen ON Time (SOT) though.
My phone's battery drains badly on standby. It drains anywhere between 1.5% to 2% per hour on standby if I leave all radios ON. If I turn OFF WiFi, Mobile Data, Bluetooth, Location, etc. then the battery drain reduces to 0.5% per hour. There is no unusual drain when I'm using the phone. If I'm continuously using the phone, I can get 6 to 7 hours SOT.
The built-in battery stats doesn't provide full information on what is draining battery, and how much. For example, it doesn't show system functions like Android System, Android OS, Display, Wakelocks, etc. It only shows 3rd party apps installed.
If I add the % consumption of each app shown in the list, it won't even add up to 50% of actual consumption. If you see the attachment, the sum of the individual consumption adds up to about 20% only. My battery is at 59%. So I have no idea about what used the remaining 21% (standby drain).
Assuming that all details are available in the system, is there an app that can simply read this info and show it on screen? I don't want battery 'monitor' apps that run in the background.
I'm interested to know if there is an app that would simply read this information and display it when launched, and won't run in the background when closed.
Thanks.
Gsam battery monitor, better battery stats or Battery guru. But i think that they all need to keep a background service, which doesn't cause any noticeable battery drain though

Yes, they do.

I seriously doubt this. It is just that they don't show up in the stats.
From my experience, there was no difference in idle drain battery usage with and without any of these apps. Checked for some days, not only a few hours.
