SOT is good around 6 to 6:30 hrs .
but why my battery drains so fast even when I'm not using it ...only happens from 100 to 95 !!!

thats normal bro and its because the phone cant really read the right voltage. I have the same problem and you can fix it by cleaning the cache in recovery and then turn off the phone and put it on the charger and leave it like 30 minutes after its been fully charged.

no problem, and remember that a new battery replacement is damn cheap when you do it at the official oneplus stores or online RMA and after warranty its 33,43 euro and in warranty its even cheaper.

no, but its normal for a battery to get weaker when it ages so in 2 years time the battery only has 80% of the original voltage so i think its best to get it replaced right before the 2 year warranty ends.

100% battery before flashing?

I notice alot of users say they cant flash their rom when their device isnt at 100% yet. why is that?
cheers.
its just best to do it w/ 100% battery. That way you can test the battery drain w/ that ROM.

It's not a problem when you flash your Kaiser without a full battery, as long it's not under 50%.
ROM update will simply not start if battery level is below 50%.
It is not that i will do it. its just that i am curious why it is required.

It's required just to be safe. You could probably flash with a 2% battery level, but to be sure that cannot be a problem, the build this protection into the ROM update application.
well its plugged in while flashing so isnt it getting power from the pc already? why does it matter what the battery is at?
It's called better safe than sorry. If you lose power in the middle of a ROM upgrade you will quite possibly brick the phone. Therefore, it's just to HELP you be on the safe side.

[q] is there any solution for error 120 at all???

Hello friends,
I'm using att one x sim unlocked. So I won't get att OTA. I'm on 4.0.3 from last august. Tried several times to update manually to 4.0.4 but will end with the annoying Error120. Applied many workarounds like draining batt fully and recharging and leaving it for some time but still no use.
As we know JB is rlzed after a long wait, I want to update it badly and I want your help in resolving this...
I read many posts and articles but they are not of much help. Please post any working solutions so that I can update my phone. Also don't suggest me to root the phone. I don't wanna root it!
thanks in advance,
MHK.
RUU Error [120] means insufficient battery power, but I guess you know that. Have you tried a factory reset? Something may be borked with your battery management.

No, I haven't. Many complained that even factory reset didnt solve the prob! Which is the reason I skipped it.
This phone unfortunately has some sort of defect with power management, in which it seems to lose track of how much juice it's got, such as abruptly going from 100% charge to 1%. Could be something like that is going on.

This seems to be the easiest way. But if you want you can go to an AT&T location (official store, Costco, Sam's club, etc.) and let them help you. It might even be a hardware problem.

oneplus one stuck at bootloop when not charging

HI I have 1+1 and its 2 years 3 month old. Presently its on CM13 MM(oxygen OS I guess) and rooted and have a recovery also. I did root and recovery around 8 months back.
2 days back when mobile was in pocket and 35% battery it went in to bootloop. after lot of stuffs like clearing cache and dalvik cache nothing worked.
Later at night i found out that mobile is working fine when its connected to charging (either by lapi or Mob charger). Hence I didn't go back to old recovery.
yesterday fully drained my battery and later charged to full and found same issue.
I am not able to make out whats the issue and how to move forward if I don't want to loose my resent data state. PLs guys help me to solve this issue.
will do whatever needed to restore my mobile. TIA
Wait I didn't understand what u said ,ur saying that your phone gets stuck in boot loop when its not charging ,what happens when you are changing and then u plug it off ? Does it like reset ?

see it sounds weird but its true. when i connect charging it boots in normally and normal operation will start as usual. Even after full starting, once I remove charging connection it goes off to boot loop. I didn't do any modification in software also. just did normal downloading off apps.
I saw slimier 2 complaints in Oneplus forum but no one relied for that. even originator has not updated what he did finally. I have asked for reply from them too.

Then no issues with hardware....seems like a bad/corrupt frimware.
You need to unlock your bootloader and flash latest Cos13 through fastboot.
How to- https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...oader-install-custom-recovery-and-root.64487/
To flash Cos13- https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541
Hope this helps.
Edit:After reading your first post seems like you're already rooted and have Twrp installed,with a unlocked bootloader,obviously.Though I don't able to understand if you're using cm13 or cos13 or oxygen os...
If you don't want to loose your internal storage,you can skip the userdata flash command while flashing Cos13 through fastboot,though,it is recommended to do that command.
You can always go to Twrp and take the backup of your internal storage in pc through MTP or a full backup using ADB.

bro one more issue started yesterday. I thought to making battery full nil and charge to 100% may help.
Before without charging connected I was able to go in twrp but not now. if i remove charging its going to restart even recovery mode also. When I went to restore old backup in TWRP mobile is auto starting even when charger is connected. but if i dont do anything its staying fine in TWRP lock screen.
without charging connected i can go into fastboot n stay for as long as i want but comp is not detecting mobile even though developer option is ON.
Yesterday thought of restoring old backup which interrupted half within 1min and now if i start mobile while charging its getting struk at 1+1 welcome screen.
I am fully confused like anything..
is it not strange that so many people (including) have started facing this issue suddenly in the past two months?
I too am facing this issue. Has anyone managed to find a fix for the issue?

But the sad truth is we can't get any original / as good as original replacement. Oneplus stopped production 2years ago. I did a quick google search and found out most of the batteries are ****. As you're name suggests, I think you're from India. Can you please inform me if you find any decent batteries? I will inform you if I find anything good.

yes I am from India. I would suggest you first try with replacement battery as everyone sell replacement battery. you can find any of these in ebay. In India Oneplus is ready to arrange a original one costing Rs 1800. They asked me for a week time to arrange original battery. So its upto u to decide to take new one or replacement.

If your still running lineage 14.1 (otherwise flash again 1st) then in twrp go to install & on the bottom right select "install image" then select the IMG file wbrambley posted, it will give you 2 options boot or recovery, make sure you select boot then continue otherwise it will wipe twrp if you choose recovery. Once completed just reboot.

Echo is not for the user of this rom. When i call my phone with any other phone (when smart ultra 6 is far away). I can hear the voice cleary but when i talk, I hear my voice back. Even on earphones Thats really annoying.
This OS has big problems with the battery!!! It charge only at 75 % after 12 hours of charging and.....most importantly,it doesn't stay in charge mode(the phone restarts itself over and over again,what if you remain only with 1% batery and you are caught in this loop??)

That's a huge battery drain with something using nearly 100% of the CPU all the time. Your phone would be melting hot. If that's the case go into Dev options and enable view CPU usage, see what it is.
Or your charging method is really bad, USB from PC is horrible to charge these as it limits current draw to 500mA. Change leads, change charger and see if it makes a difference. My battery will hold up for 5 days with little usage.

Why is that? I thought turning it off is fine. Since the phone will factory reset after unlock/flashing, might as well wait until everything is settled. Dont wanna waste time reinstalling everything.

For security reasons, use Mi Cloud for backup (will work with Xiaomi Eu roms if that's what you want to do after).
