Is anyone that is having battery issues running Adao Task Manager and Battery Status Pro?
I just factory reset my phone and I got 24hours of batter life. About 8 standby but a good deal of texting, web, some calls and some you tube.
I installed Task Manager and Batter Status Pro last night and my battery this morning went down 15% in about 1hr.
I uninstalled these today and will post again but has anyone else seen big battery drain from these apps or does anyone that is having issues running something similar?
I have been playing with the battery for about a week now.
For me this phone runs pretty good during stand-by. I would have about 2-3% drop for a whole night (7 to 8 hrs), with Google (push), Twitter and weather syncing.
The problem is when you use it, it drops like crazy. When I read news or surf the web, it would drop 1% every 1 or 2 min.
This morning I read an ebook, with black background for about 30 min, it dropped about 3%.
So basically i think the screen, data connection, and non-black background are the ones that kill the battery.
Yea, I agree, the S-AMOLED screen in this thing is an energy hog. OLED's are supposed to be more energy efficient than typical LCD's but I'm just not seeing it. Whenever I look at battery usage stats it shows the display at 70-75% of battery usage. Thats ridiculous. I have until the 18th, but I'm quickly leaning towards returning this and just getting an iphone4. This phone is becoming more and more disappointing the longer I have it.
This morning I have been uplugged 4.75hrs and used 16% no battery monitor and no app killer. Basically done the same things I did yesterday. Some Bebbled,texting, email, phone calls .
I will update tomorrow with total hours battery life for today. Would be happy if I can replicate the 24hours I got the day before installing those apps.
I got like 45 hours of battery with moderate usage during the two days. Seems fine to me, I occasionally used system panel to monitor if anything was using high and constant CPU
This is pretty typical of a 1ghz phone My nexus would last a day of heavy usage, 2 days if i use it lightly. We need to wait for undervolted kernels to be developed xD
Also, it really helps if you disable 3G when you don't use it. This allows me to get 3-4 days of light usage out of my nexus. I haven't played with the Captivate long enough to know how much of a difference this makes on this phone though
when you guys refer to "stand by", what exactly do you mean? Just screen off/phone idle? The battery usage on my phone when I use it seems to be OK even if not amazing, but it continues to sap life from the battery when I'm using it at an alarming rate.
Standby is when the phone is idle/screen off/locked.
The display is definitely power hungry. Using the Power Control widget that comes installed definitely has helped with battery life. It will let you toggle WiFi, BT, GPS, Data Sync, and Brightness (at 3 levels). When I'm not using anyone of those, I turn it off. When I'm indoors, I'll set the brightness to the lowest level. I'm usually at my desk when I'm streaming music, so I'll have it plugged in.

Actually they are more energy efficient on black screens, But screens with a lot of white in them suck battery bad.

This is true the white screens burn the battery etc. I just wanted to let everyone know what I did to make my battery last more that 24hrs.
First, read the Wiki guide and apply some of the battery saving tips.
Second, UNINSTALL a program called "gReader" created by noinnion. This program is a huge battery hog! At least it was for me.
Hope this helps.
Well I guess I am one of the "lucky ones" Im running a live wallpaper and have not run my battery down since the 1st day. Right now Im at 40% life and at 15 Hrs 30m since unplugged. This is with checking facebook, twitter, email, phone calls, internet browsing\video watching and following the steps for the GPS fix. The only thing I have done is install ATK on the phone, besides that its all stock.
One thing I know is a huge battery drain is Time without Service. Check that stat and see if you have anytime at all without service, if so, I am pointing to that as a major drain on the battery. I know currently I have 0% Time without signal, my fiancee however is usually in the 20+% range and her battery drains like many reports I have seen here (she has an EVO).....
Yesterday I only managed 16 hours. Web, Email, A bluetooth file transfer, short bit of gaming. I have about 5% of the cell standby time (26%) without signal. My girlfriend has the Aria which is running Android 2.1 also, has all sorts of widgets, haptic feedback on and can make it at least 24 hours. I get that it has a smaller screen but it is also an LCD. Shouldn't the Super Amoled be saving our battery some display consumption.
i get about 14 hours or so moderate usage and at the end of the day, i have about 35% left at night.
If you detail the "Display" usage in the battery usage details how many minutes has your screen been on? Mine says 1hour 2mins ...this is for 8 hours of running time. My display is using 50% of the battery (which is at 68% now).
W00t W00t today I have reached a new high 2 Days 6 hours and 29 minuts with 12% battery left.....
What I have found is keeping Wifi on while I am at work and home like almost doubled my battery life. Which is great that I can use Wifi all day and not drain the battery so fast like my Fuze. Right now been off charger since 7:30am and I have 84% left. Yesterday after 9 hours I was still over 50%. For me its better than any other smartphone I have owened.
I used manual brightness, (swipe notification bar), turn off GPS/BT. black wallpaper and set Wifi to never sleep. Also the power saving mode in settings is off for other reason and doesn't affect battery.
At 18% right now and it's been off the charger for about 30 hours. I noticed yesterday that while I was connected to wifi at home (with Y5 app), it was draining faster than when I was connected to 3g. Did some tested back and forth and JuicePlotter clearly had a noticeably steeper downward slope for when wifi was connected than when it was using 3g. Weird :\
I've been sitting at 69% battery for the past hour and 48 minutes.

I've been using the phone for about 18 hours, and I am at 45%, ill post some pictures in morning, going to bed.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
it's been 1d, 10hr, 59min,
and I'm at 57%.
but of course very mild use:
about 30min of phone call,
25min of web browsing,
13min of XDA Prem
20min of music.
20min of clicking around randomly in the phone
I am a "minimist". I only run apps when I need them so I have pretty much nothing running in the background (except Google Voice). I don't even have a widget, only 1 screen of shortcuts. so put that into consideration before comparing your battery life to mine. I am just giving an insight about how I achieved mine.
Removed(deleted) all bloatwares (wifi calling, myaccount, lg.omadmclient)
Using Titanium Backup PRO, froze several apps (which I don't think matters, since I never see these apps running in the background anyways)
Using StartUp (the program), I disable A ****LOAD of things, so apps won't startup by itself due to whatever reason
did the HTC battery conditioning twice, then wiped battery stats
has a SetCPU screen off profile of 216/216.
no apps that sync at all (except Google Voice, which is constantly running)
default brightness
use ATK to kill tasks manually everytime I'm done using the phone, before I lock my screen (NO AUTOKILLING)
what I've come to realize is that no matter what u do, when you use the phone, the battery is going to drain. when my screen is off/idle, i lose almost no battery. For example, the day before yesterday, I lost 3% battery overnight (8 hours). Last night I lost 1% overnight (8 hours). But when I actually use the phone (screen on), i lose battery fast.
My battery life was awful the first few days but after uninstalling the capacitive buttons led notification app and calibrating my battery it got a lot better. It now lasts me the entire day with around 30% left when i plug it back in. I do turn off 4g when I'm at work and in a few of my classes because I dont get good reception.
The battery seems to last a really long time on idle but as soon as I play a game (guerilla bob thd) the battery drops about 10% in about 20mins (while im playing) and then goes back to about 5% an hour
Here's my battery life... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13438062&postcount=21
Haven't tried to stretch my battery past what I needed yet but I used it for 1 hour 2 minutes straight today and only lost 10% battery. No way thats happening on my old phone. Used to lose 1% every couple minutes the screen was on.
That's how much I'm losing.. the phone is pretty good when it's off.. when there's no network.. but I went from 65% to 45% in 1 hour, and that's just from texting, really not liking that.
Damn that sucks. I only lose 4-5% per hour of left idle. Something is prolly up with your phone.
You lose 4% - 5% when your idle? That's how much I lose when I'm idle, probably even less.
When I touch the phone, it starts to die really quickly
Dunno whats causing that. I drain pretty slow during actual usage. My screen brightness is usually 25-30 that prolly helps a lot.

Damn, same here man, what about GO SMS or Go launcher?
Does that kill battery?
I removed Go launcher, I really loved the look, but testing if that kills the battery?

Hi,
I received my gear S2 classic yesterday but I don't seem to be getting the battery life of 2 days. I took it off charge this morning at 11:30 am and it's now 12 noon and it's down to 89%. Is this normal? I've turned off the auto heart rate monitor and NFC and Wifi. It's constantly connected to my note 4 and the brightness is set to 5.
I've had a fair few notifications and haven't really used apps on it today so far but seems to be draining quicker than what I was expecting, just wondering if this is normal or not? I understand it's a small battery but when it's supposed to get 2 days and it doesn't seem like I'd get one day out of it if I was to take it off charge early in the morning like at 8 AM for example.
In 30 min it drained 11%? Seems like a lot. Restart it perhaps? I have wifi off, s voie off, and screen brightness set to 5 as well and it lasts 2+ days. I'd give a couple more days, if it doesn't improve then I would exchange it.

Think it's okay (ish) been off charge now for about 11 and a half hours and it's at 46% though this still is only barely a day of battery life not 2. Should be able to live with it though I normally put my phone on charge at night when I go bed anyway regardless of the charge I have left and I do the same with the S2. Speaking of phone is there anything I can do with it's battery life? Having bluetooth on 24/7 really takes a hit on my battery life on my note 4. Is there anyway I could put it into some kinda low powered bluetooth mode so maybe it's not quite as fast but still some kind of connection?

I had pretty bad battery life with watch connected too. It turned out it was a misbehaving app with bluetooth, GasBuddy in mycase. Uninstalled it and battery life went back to normal. I suspect something similar may be happening in your case.

+1 for the misbehaving app as the likely cause. For comparison: My Classic goes on at 9am and off around 9pm with about 60% left, consistently. Connected with bt...Wifi off and max brightness all day.

How did you determine the app causing issues? Do you have the clock always on or gestures on? it seems i am draining awfull fast too. Took off charger at 7am and now at 10 i am at 85% is this normal?

That drain seems a little fast to me but not too bad compared to the experience of others posted here.
Usually you'll notice the drain soon after installing troublesome apps, so the offender is likely one of the last few you installed. To fix this I just uninstall the last few apps I downloaded and test from there. If the battery issue is still not resolved after a while of usage, then I uninstall the ones before it. I don't know of any other way to test on the Gear S2 like we do on android phones (e.g. with bbs, wakelock detector, etc.).
The battery life I mentioned for my Classic is with gesture mide turned on, and always-on mode turned off.
When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the OnePlus 5's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
I am not too pleased about idle battery drain.
Overnight, about 8h it consumes about 3%-5%. Sometimes more than 10%, if the device doesn't go in deep sleep for whatever reason..
If commute, it takes more battery (maybe sensors, switch to mobile data, etc).
About 20% in 9hours. wifi most of the time with about 1h hour on mobile data. And movement in pocket about 20-30mins.
My experience with idle drain has been good overall. Getting around 0.5% per hr
My idle drain is horrendous. I'm getting around 20% drain over night (7h sleep) with nothing enabled but WiFi. And that's with Greenify. I'm thinking of rooting and flashing the EX Kernel, but wanted to wait for an obviously outstanding major update before doing so.

Android System, Phone Services + Google Services, but only if WiFi/data is on. If they are off the battery life is perfect.

Battery was good until yesterday, 8hrs SOT circa. Suddenly battery starts draining and can I barely reach 2,30 SOT. Any idea? No apps showed in battery page, the only app I downloaded yesterday was Textra SMS (Beta), but it's very strange that it can drains so much.

For me Chrome was a big culprit for battery drain. Try to delete the cache and the storage of the app. You can as well disable and it and re enable it. That should be enough. Anyway, Chrome is a battery hog. I am thinking about switching to Opera or Firefox. Any recommendation for browsers?
I use Firefox with the add-on 'Dark Background and Light Text'. I have it set to turn the background of all pages to true black.
2% over night (7 hours) pretty pleased. But it was even better on OP3 when the drain over night was 0-1%
I'm on RR with no GAPPS and lost about 1.5% in about 8.5hrs of not being used (sleep + getting ready in the AM)
I have TASKER, and have set airplane mode to come on 8pm - 3am.
Currently getting roughly 2-3% drain in that "airplane mode" time

What the? Do you have gestures enabled (eg: double tap to wake)?
In my opinion it consumes too much.. one time i got about 3% drain in about 8-9h idle with wifi on and no commute.
That's why i hate android idle drain. A never-ending issue.
SOT only 34 mins, 1h mobile data, the rest on wifi.
I've disabled gestures, location history, no google fit, etc etc
Not bad here. About .3% per hour overnight. So about 2% overnight. That's on 4G as I rarely ever have my phone on WiFi. I also have email at to push (2 accounts) and I usually turn off the sync stuff in my Google account. Things like app data, calendar, contacts and the rest. I just sync when I make changes like adding a contract I then toggle the contacts on then off kind of thing. No need to let it sync all day and night for nothing imo.
I just have that drain when location is set to "high accuracy". When its set to "battery saving" everthing seems fine.
I don't know what's wrong with my device/apps. Several times now i had a standby drain in around 7 hours of 30%+. I didn't plug my phone in overnight because of Dash charging, when I went to bed, the battery was at 37%. The next morning I overslept massively and completely missed my shift because my battery died over night. This is with airplane mode on during 75% of the night. The highest drain in battery settings was displayed for "Android System" with around 12% or so, but that was with the last day counted in. I feel like the battery drain stats in settings are completely unreliable...
Except from that I get normal battery life during the day though, although during the first few days standby drain was higher than screen on drain...

Yeah man you need to download accubattery or something to monitor the drain. That's ridiculous. And yeah I've been kinda confused about the stock battery stats as well. It seems to tell you nothing.
I have noticed a lot more battery drain since the 911 update a few days ago. I was getting 7ish sot now I'm under 5hrs. I'll bet I'm not the only one who noticed it though. It'll be fixed don't worry.

I had AccuBattery installed at first but it didn't give me any meaningful insights so I uninstalled it a few weeks later.
I normally only get around 3 hours of SOT, but I'm not into mobile gaming or YouTube so that is normal...
I notice significant drain in idle after the 4.5.6 update last week. Android system seems to be the culprit, but not sure what's process under this is actually causing the problem.
All radios on, and 2 mail accounts syncing.
I am totally in love with my GW4 (Classic 46mm Model) as it's my first smartwatch but there is still one thing that bothers me, the unreasonable battery drain overnight. I charged up my watch last night, put the watch on my desk, came back in the morning and saw about 10% battery drain in 8 hours! That's insane considering the fact that I've disabled everything and even enabled battery saver, I thought after all these years I can finally get a full fledged Wear OS smartwatch and be happy with the battery but Wear OS is still the same OS as it was.
I've got the same issue. I thought it was the sleep tracking but I was wrong
And the funny fact is that the battery life is reasonably good when you actually using the watch, but as soon as you put it away it starts to drink juice weirdly, looks like there is no deep sleep kicking in no matter what, even disabling everything and enabling airplane mode.

Which version/size do you have? How many times have you fully charged the watch? I have Classic 46mm. My battery drains 4 -6 % during the night. I have watch on my wrist when I sleep. I always put watch into bedtime mode before I go to bed. I don't disable anything or put on power saving mode. I think the bedtime mode simply turns off notifications and stops watch face from automatically turning on.

Oh sorry for not mentioning it, It's the same as yours classic 46mm. I have the watch for almost 1 week now but I always charge it whenever it gets to 50% so it's a half cycle charge. Do you think I should let it fully discharged and recharge it for a full cycle?
I have the non classic 44mm LTE and I have always used bedtime mode and I've tried nothing all the way to disabling everything and enabling battery saver and still lose quite a bit at night

It seems to me that the battery lasted longer after doing some full cycle charges but I could be wrong. I definitely have seen improvement in battery life since the first few days I had watch. Not sure what it is.

How do you know it was not sleep tracking?
For me, I went to bed yesterday with almost 100% battery. The overnight drain was 15%, flight mode enabled, good night mode enabled and spO2 while sleeping on.
My watch is 40mm, BT modell.
Tonight I will try only the automatic good night mode.
What about Bluetooth when my phone is in airplane mode? Will it consume more battery searching for the device? My wifi will also be disabled in the night...
I am seeing this same thing
13% drain with airplane mode, good night mode, and battery saver modes on.
13-14% drain with battery saver mode and good night mode on.
This is for an 8 hour window.
Using the watch during the day, the battery does seem to last longer and I don't see the drain, even when using it to track workouts and such.
Last night my battery used 11%. I'm not sure what the difference is. I know I have been in the 4-6% range in the past but I always do not pay attention. Possibly related to how fully charged the watch is. Why do we think 10% is bad? I did a search on-line and I have to say that 10% seems very good compared to some other watches. The reality for me as that I'm typically getting 2 days plus on a charge unless I'm heavy on GPS. Currently I'm at 50% and I charged the watch 1 day and 9 hours ago. I came from a GW1 which had significantly more battery time but I'm still very happy with the GW4.
My drain is 20% overnight - despite watch being in bedtime mode.

If your watch is on your desk and turned on, it's constantly searching for your wrist. If you are not wearing it, turn it off.
I have the same issue about battery drain.
I lose between 15-20% each night with everything off (no SpO2, no snoring, etc)
I have the LTE 46 classic model
But based on people and comments I'm guessing the issue comes because I'm not using a Samsung phone and bed time is not synced with the watch and is still "online" all the night
Geez I thought my 3-5 percent drain was horrible. I have the 44mm Bluetooth only model. The first night it drained horrible but I had every sensor on. I noticed I got much better battery after disabling location. I've had mine paired since 7am this morning (it's now 3pm) responding to texts, wifi on and using Spotify on it at 75 percent brightness and it's at 79 percent now. Maybe I got lucky or something? The only sensors I have are the step counter as well as heart rate when resting more than 10 minutes and I never like to use battery saver mode on mine
Second night and I got about 20% drain overnight with everything turned on. I got a similar battery consumption like adj998. Spotify on first place.
I will try do disable GPS tonight and see if anything changes, but I guess it's a normal behaviour. One thing I could try is to turn the spO2 sensor off.
Read somewhere that unlocked ADB is the culprit. So I have unlocked it.
Let me watch how it helps my 20% overnight drain.

Interesting. I'm betting that this drain is related to certain apps as well. When I did my post yesterday about the 11% drain the previous night I noticed the Altimeter app was listed at 4.5%. I immediately uninstalled this app. I had used it once the previous day and apparently it was still using battery. Results: much battery time last night. I would say 3%. In fact, when I looked earlier this morning I still had 41% battery. Yesterday morning I was at 50%. 25 hours and 9% battery used. I have not been very active these last couple days (long days at work). Still putting in about 5,000 steps a day. I have notifications on (gmail, texts, meesenger), use bedtime mode, spO2 sensor off, and do not have watch always on.

I have not been very active these last couple days (long days at work). Still putting in about 5,000 steps a day. I have notifications on (gmail, texts, meesenger), use bedtime mode, spO2 sensor off, and do not have watch always on. View attachment 5405809

Read on Reddit that altimeter drain was a known issue, in earlier models as well.
With people that are having excessive battery drain on their watch: are there any apps which are listed in Wear app -> Watch settings -> Battery that seem like a high percent of battery usage?

Actually yeah, for me it's Spotify. I installed it and connected it to my account but did not use it...
