Honor 8 battery drain - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Hello,
I am new here and need help with my Honor 8. The battery drain allot. I have read other post on xda-developers.com with the same issue. I don't know if the drain start after the update7.0. I just know that I know that my has been update to 7.0. If is some info:
Android 7.0
EMUI 5.0.1
I have tried to turn off WIFI+ and Location with no lock .
I don't know if my phone is factory unlocked and I will try to restart my phone but would like to know if I do that will take away the unlocked part?

Please share you battery graph and also see which app is consuming high battery. It may be many apps open in the background. I was facing the same and disabled Facebook on screen lock as it was consuming good amount of battery.
Check if you have enabled backup and sync for Photos as it consumes a lot of juice as well.

Try installing this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sp
Let it measure ur usage for a day and then see which app has wavelocks and consumes battery in the background.
Also u can reset and restart ur phone, it will NOT unlock ur bootloader or void warranty.

No, unless you're constantly in a bad reception area and using sucking-battery apps.

It isn't bad reception cause the graph shows green.

For the first time, mine did some crap like that this morning.
Word thing is the other day it stayed in 100% for 2 hours straight.
I mean I was web browsing on 4G, playing videos on YouTube etc. Doing everything I can to try and drain the battery.
My guess is we both need to factory reset.
In my case I recently updated to B391 but didn't factory reset.
Each update I did prior, I always factory reset the phone and had consistent & decent battery life

I always do a factory reset. It's crap, we users shouldn't have to, but it seems the best ways to squeeze the best performance of the device.

I bought the Honor 8 when it launched. It's almost been a year and a half and I had big battery issues.
I tried battery calibration, factory reset, etc... Nothing worked.
So I bought a new battery on Ebay (15€) and had it replaced. The phone is now good as new. At the end of the day, there's almost 50% of battery remaining.
I thing the component quality isn't that good and doesn't last more than 18/20 months.

I bought my Honor 8 around Octobor 2016 and same issue. Now, for common use, FB, surf with Chrome, IM with Messenger & WhatsApp, I've to charge 2-3 times per day.
My device is still in warranty (I think) then, I contacted Huawei/Honor support... but I think like you, battery is a poor quality and need to be replaced.

Could you please PM me the ebay link to the battery you got? Thanks

Is it easy to replace the battery on your own? I am really furious with the battery issues. Today my phone had 60% battery and it shut down suddenly. When I turned it on again the battery life was 0% and I was away from home without any other way to communicate with the universe ? . I don't know if I should by a new battery or just throw it away and get something else. It was a great value for money device (best camera ever!) but this thing with the battery is unacceptable especially because it is not easy to open it. I'd really appreciate it if you could send me a pm with the ebay link as well. Thanks in advance ??

Had my battery replaced under warranty a months ore so before the expiratin and with shipping taken care of (Huawei France). The phone was back quite quickly (took around one week) and now feels absolutely great. I am not a heavy storage user so I can manage with 32G for some time.
Even if it's out of warranty I'd say it's really worth replacing.

Hi everyone
I have my honor 8 two years now.
It always had 2days battery with normal use (videos included) for 1and half years.
Now it's switching off with 80% battery left.
When I plug it and turn it on it says 40/50% battery left. If I unplug it, it swithches off again.
It makes me crazy as I cannot rely on it, but the phone is fantastic!! I had other phones on the past, and the battery last for more than 5years!!
- I've reboot the phone already, cleaned the cache, checked all apps, but the situation is still the same.
Any suggestion?
- I'm reading that Google play might be the probem. Can I get rid of it?
Thanks for your help!
Cheers

I resolved my battery drain problem by connecting all my wifi to 2.4Ghz instead of 5Ghz.

Nexus 5 sudden crash

Running kitkat, battery recently replaced. all good for a month.
Yesterday the phone suddenly switched off , i switched it on again and the battery had jumped down about 40%.
It crashed again but then remained stable for the rest of the day.
Tonight (at 50% battery remaining) i got a sudden warning "6% battery remaining" and it crashed again, i switched on again and the battery went back to normal , around 40%, stable since.
Any ideas or is the phone on the way out ?
Did you buy an official N5 battery? It looks like a faulty battery...
This is the one i ordered

Phone seems ok today so far, would wiping the cache be worth a try ?

It can't do any harm but it won't help in this situation.
Try the following:
1. Let the battery go to 5% then charge your device to 100%
2. Disconnect the cable
3. Reconnect it and check if the battery level is at 100%. If not keep charging. If 100% disconnect and reboot. Then reconnect until 100%
These steps worked for some users (even if steps 1 & 2 should be enough IMHO).
Moreover you can try to remove apps or flash the factory images to check if the problem persists. If nothing works then your last attempt is to send it back to ReplaceBase.
thanks for taking the time to reply, will try your suggestions,
Just had another strange battery drain, captured it on this screenshot.
You can see battery just takes a sudden dive and recovers somewhat.

I have just read a nice thread about massive battery drain. Check this out.
His explanations fit with your battery stats.
Thanks for that, will have a browse, but would it explain my phone suddenly dying at 50% ?

I guess. Anyway you should follow the above steps and clean up your device by removing useless apps/features. Finally flashing factory images is sometimes a good thing to start from scratch.
Thanks again
I just tried your first suggestion, charged till 100% then disconnect, it immediately dropped to 99% so i recharged to 100%
Then disconnected and rebooted, weirdly when the phone rebooted it said the battery was now at 19% ,
Back on charge again.
Ugh.... Good luck but I would bet on a faulty battery. You'll probably have to send it back if you can use the warranty.
Did you have the same issue after receiving the new battery? Did you change several things of your setup (kernel, new apps...)?
Going from 100% to 19% can't be explained by the above thread. IMO no apps, no kernel, no software can explain this drop. Some folks say that it can also be caused by the motherboard...
Replacebase have promised to send me out a new battery , they too think its likely a dodgy battery, top customer service so far, hopefully it wont take too long to arrive.
I didnt change anything on my phone, perhaps updated some apps , its stock Kitkat,,, meanwhile Is there any way to check the health of the motherboard ? i don't like the sound of that.

Without profesionnal tools we can't check this AFAIK. Don't worry about the motherboard. It was only a suggestion reported by a few users. Chances are your problem will be solved after receiving the new battery.
ok thought as much, battery charged up to 100%, rebooted and now at 60%.
Ill put back in the old battery for now and see how it behaves. thanks for you help

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!

Battery life greatly getting worse

Has anyone noticed their battery getting incredibly worse over time? I bought my S7 on release (non edge). And since then, I've noticed that it doesn't last no where near as long. Today, for example I started my day at 7:00am when the battery was 100%. As of 30 minutes ago, the battery reached critically low (5%). From 7am all I did was watch a few videos, facebook, snapchat and then play music. But all the above for not too long.
I've also noticed that once the phone hits the 15% battery (I know due to the notification), that within minutes the battery can be done to 10% or so, without touching it.
I'm more so tempted just to take it back, unless there's an easy fix OR it's a known issue with the current version.
Thanks!

I've definitely noticed this since rooting. Maybe it has something to do with that? Like a ROM you flashed or what not? I'd like some suggestions here as well.

I haven't rooted the S7, it was the first phone that I've left stock from opening.
What does the battery stats say is using the most mAh?
Facebook app is a known battery hog
Obviously over time, you'll install different things, and slowly the phone will start using more and more power running background apps
A backup and Factory reset will show if there is a hardware / battery issue, or if it's purely from stuff you've installed over time
Also clearing the caches from recovery could help
yeah ive noticed this too. My usage habits havent changed but my battery life is almost half of what it was when i just got the phone.

Cache has been cleared from recovery, and I don't generally install many apps so since I've bought the phone the apps have stayed the same.
Android system is always on top. Unless of course I spend hours on Facebook.
Might have to factory reset. I've used my phone with the same apps and time since I've bought it, and I'm finding I'm charging it 3x as much.
I think it's a root issue - deep sleep.
After S6 Edge Plus, when you root a samsung phone, it won't go in deep sleep. I believe there's a fix for that.
Have you checked the battery usage stats? It gives you the breakdown on what apps are eating up the battery.
I have had my S7 for about a month and battery is about the same.
Just to update this thread for those that may have a similar issue...the other day I couldn't live with the battery life the way it was. The phone used 50% in several hours where I barely used it.
Decided to completely re-flash with stock (was stock before) as opposed to simply wiping all data. A week in, and the phone's battery life is back to the way it was. I went to bed when it was on 100% (as a test) and woke up 7 hours later with the phone on 94%, with wifi, location and bluetooth on.
Not sure what had caused it to use so much battery previously, but it's back to what it should be and that's all that matters.
hi with my s7 exynos i do 3h screen. i think there is a problem. i bought my s7 one week ago. can anyone help me?
Rooting and installing custom kernels when done right should greatly increase the battery life of your device. This is a well known guide here on XDA for improving battery life for our devices.
That being said, Lithium Ion Batteries hold less charge the more cycles they are put through, its a given fact but as you said your device is relatively new and therefore should not be experiencing this kind of problem. The way I see this is there are 3 possibilities which may be causing the said problem...
1) You have rooted the device and done some modification/s. ( which you haven't done )
2) Your battery is being drained by a service ( Like Oculus or VR ) in fact a number of reddit users complained their S7 was overheating and battery was draining really fast for some reason. Check This page out, It might help you.
3) Battery Defect, you must've gotten a "bad" model, if you haven't tripped KNOX you could try bringing your phone to Samsung and see if they would fix or replace it.
Good luck
I think this has to due to them samsung updates. As far as i know samsung been always doing things like this where they made the OS slow as hell after a while so you gonna get a upgrade sooner but a battery should last 2 years minimal without degrading.

i get like 5 hours screen on time and bout 1 day standby time but i have most bloatware disabled with the package disabler. But if i was you i would contact samsung.
This happens with Samsung updates on every Galaxy phone. It's like a curse. It's unavoidable.

May i ask if the people with these problems use the fast charge? I hearing many bad things bout this so i switched it off and must say the normal charge isn't that slow and if it can keep the battery good for longer then we all should use this.
I turned fast charge off about a week after I got the phone, was making the phone and charger pretty hot for the sake of about 5-10 mins quicker charge
Pointless really, unless you are desperate, only have a few mins spare and need as much power as possible in that short time, and if that's the case, enable it for that one time
Restrict background data on all but the most important apps (phone, text, email), dave power all but the most important apps. Battery life is fine

Low battery without anything consuming energy (OnePlus 3)

I hope this is the correct forum (went with this, cause the problem probably isn't related to my phone model, or is it?)
I bought an used OnePlus 3 from ebay and I have one big problem: The battery gets empty extremely fast. It even gets empty when I'm not using my phone. (lost ~15% in 1-2 hours while it was in my bag), when I go to the settings screen for Battery where it says which things used how much energy since the last full charge, the percentages add up to ~10-15%, even if my battery is at 10%.
Maybe the phone was just charged very often by the person who used to own it, would it be worth to buy a new battery? Or can this have other causes?
hey man

Gear sport plugin battery drain

Has anyone else experienced more phone related battery drain after the recent UI update? It's not using alot of battery or anything, but I do see the symbol on the phone were Samsung accessory service is in use way more often now. And prior to update, the plug-in never registered at all in my battery usage. So basically it would use under 1% battery for the entire battery cycle. Now, it uses 2-3% per cycle and I've done nothing different with the phone. Has anyone else noticed this and know how to fix it?
I have the same problem after upgrade to new frameware One UI . Super fast Battery drain.
My friend had battery drain after update. A hard reset fixed it.

He reset the watch.
I have got super fast battery drain as well...its so bad the watch drains even when it is turned off...I used to last 2 days without having to charge the watch but now by end of day I am down to 10% or so...really really baffling. I have reset the watch numerous times but it doesn't seem to get fixed...
And firmwares for this watch are so hard to come by...I wanted to do a downgrade...
