not dead black screen problem just battery issue usually in battery usage android os shows normally like this(image)
but sometimes it is 60 to 70 % and that battery drain too fast
is it a firmware issue ? or hardware ? my phone is 2 week old
this thing happen to me 2 time only
it happen to my phone at night on standby mode
and what all other aps( in the image) which is showing in battery usage it is all close(from task manager) but it shows it is using battery.
The battery usage being shown is the overall battery juice used by the apps listed since the phone is switched on.
Its basically shows the history of your battery usage and which app/system components have used how much % of your battery.
There's nothing wrong in that, its not a problem as you are assuming it to be and the apps shown there are not necessarily open.
ok thanks
i'll post in future if this problem come again
now android os usage is rising 40 + is it ok ?
Just enjoy the phone bro. Anyways u wont get more than 1~1.5 days ona a single charge except idealized conditions
I received my Galaxy this Thursday and didn't restart it at all until it drained itself yesterday in 14 hours.
After charing my phone to 100% and using it very very little during the day, it had drained itself completely after 14 hours. See the attached screen shots.
Android OS used 75% of my battery. It was completely useless.
Today after charging to 100% during the night it has been running fine. Currently at 68% after 9 hours with average use.
I've seen another thread about Android OS draining battery for SGS2, but I'm not sure there is a conclusion as to what processes causes it.
I suggest a restart if the battery starts draining too fast.
It's always like that with new smartphones. When I bought mine, battery time was just horrible - not even one day of ordinary usage. After few charging cycles (let's say after approx. 2 weeks) it got much much better. Now 2 days is not a problem at all.
Dont know how its works on custom roms/kernels but on stock 2.3.4 battery going down much faster with sd card on. If I put off sd card, battery life is extended. How no idea why.
lol i don't have any sd card yet but this problem occurs sometimes only
restarting works sometimes not every time i checked it
now what i found battery backup and drainage is ok in android phones wait for ICS 4.0.3(officially) lets see if they fix that battery bug. this thing should be solved in galaxy R.

Dude did you turn off Background auto sync ?
Your display usage is 2%, so it seems your phone was not used much by you. I feel you have turned on too many system background apps or something like that.
Do check that & update here if it solves the problem.

ya i close every application and clear ram eachtime before pressing the power button for stand by later i'll post image if this problem come again
I had this problem on stock rom.
I googled around and it seems that Samsung OS has some bug where after switching the wifi off, it still keeps consuming CPU resources.
Try flashing a custom ROM.
I haven't had this problem since the day I shifted to InfectedROM+ardatdat's kernel.

Hi,
I owned a Huawei Ascend Mate 7 Gold 9 months ago, and I was very happy because I could use the phone for more than 2 days withouth charging. But recently, the battery started to drain VERY FAST .
For instance, if I go to sleep with the phone at 100%, when I wake up (8h later) , the battery is at 70% or less. With my investigation, I tried/found that:
-The problem is not caused by deep sleep mode, or at least "CPU Spy" shows that the phone is able to do it.
-I tried wipe (factory reset/partition/cache) with no results.
-I calibrated the battery but the problem persists, also I tried charging with 1A charger.
-"GSam Battery Monitor - Root" shows that 47% of the battery goes to "Android System" and another 20% goes to "Kernel (Android OS)".
The issue started at the last week, and the first thing I did was updating Lolipop (I was using it for more than 4 months) to Marshmallow 6.0 (B561). I don't know what do to now, ATM I'm underclocking the CPU, but that's a temporally solution. I always take the battery with a lot of care, I don't know why is happening this.
If someone could help me, I will be very thankfull .

same here
i have exactly the same situation with u and couldn't find a solution yet.
battery issues too
what firmware you running? I have an EU version of the phone, updated to 5.1.1 and it was dying fast. I then updated to 6.0 Malaysian rom from their website and it started to do the 2 day life. However the phone seems to just freeze and sometimes just switch off, so I am thinking of downgrading and then see if its the software or its a hardware failure. I have warranty
I couldn't find any solution yet, so I'm going to downgrage to the 4.X. I don't see benefits from Marshmallow update, also I can't hide the taskbar, so...
Actually I think I'm using CH version B561.
Edit: Fine, I can't find a downgrage pack for my version.
Sorry if the question has been answered before but does anyone else get a lot of battery drain due to 'phone idle'. I'm unsure whether if deep sleep not working or what but have never had this problem with any other phones I have had.

Yes, I'm definitely experiencing the same problem. I left the phone overnight and it lost almost 7% which is a lot compared to my old Z1 (only 1-2%). Other time is also similar. Sometimes, it feels like it as if actively using the phone actually uses less power than leaving it idle. Looking at the battery chart seems normal but the phone actually discharges fast on standby (sometimes I lost 25% after just 4-5 hours standby) I'm really want to know if others experience this as well and how to fix.
Yes I'm having the same problem.. Phone idle taking more drain than screen right now..
It's deffo a bug with this 7.0 update.. Hopefully it gets fixed in next update..
My battery sucks now after the Nougat update! Drains really quickly on standby. I even turned WiFi scanning off but it didn't seem to help
I am facing the same issue too
Phone idle appears at the top of the list, claiming 135 mah
While my screen states its using 49 mah
Similarly and annoyingly. Since Nougat my phone barely deep sleeps.
My phone was deep sleeping amazingly on mm. But now it barely deep sleeps. Ridiculous update which now requires me to perform a clean full wipe install of Nougat. Which currently I have no time for, hence my battery dies ridiculously fast. Annoying and not what I was expecting, this removed my excitement away from receiving the new Nougat update and instead am left with work to do to get this one back to par.
This has happened to me before on previous Sony phones when installing new ota updates. Clearly something Sony is good at.
For the OP - this is one of the best apps to determine CPU behaviour, simple and to the point. Particularly scroll to the bottom to obtain how well or not the phone deep sleeps.

Since upgrading via OTA to Nougat my device barely deep sleeps, rather it sits at 307mhz when idle. Battery gone to sh!t. Forced to do a factory reset fresh installation (when I get enough time to.)

Thanks,
It's seems the idle just stays on all the time even if the phone is being used..
Sony needs to release a patch for this asap..

Clean install, locked and unrooted, DRM in tact?
Still unfavourable deep sleep?
Then that surely is pointing to a inherent issue with Sony Nougat.
However why isn't everyone here with XZ Nougat complaining the same?
We need more input.
In the meantime I will need to bite the bullet and reset my phone as well and report back.

Been using kernel auditor to check usage. Will reset it and will use the phone as normal tomorrow and report any findings.

I got the same problem with you too, 7% after night, my old phone was Z1 to compare too. After update to 7.0 then back to 6.0.1 battery drain is less, but still more than normal.
I also Started to get huge Phone Idol drain (top of battery usage) after OTA update to Android 7 on Stock unrooted, Ive done a complete fresh start through xperia companion and still getting big drain from Phone Idol.
Got the same problems you guys are facing.
My phone did drain from 100% to 88% in just 2 hours (Display on: 35 minutes half brightness, phone calls 10 minutes) and its on WiFi not even mobile data. My girlfriends phone did drain about the same with 35 mins display on BUT calls of 45 minutes.
Oh and idle yeah on WiFi about 1% every hour and on Mobile Data 3%/hour.
This is really bad imho and it's been 2 times I've repaired the device via Xperia Companion. Funny about this is, that always on the first run I get a message "Firmware could not be repaired". Then I restart the whole process and it does just fine. Same with restoring images/videos.
I've started to notice my phone idle is near the top of battery usage. Initially after installing Nougat, battery life was great. Now I narrowly get 5hours of SOT. Currently at 70% and phone idle has used 19% of battery at 196mAh and SOT 1.5hrs with 182mAh. Not sure why the phone is not sleeping.

I upgrade to 7.0 again recently, and it only cost 1% per night, it's quite good . But battery consume while using is not much improvement like idle.
Facing the same problem, though i dont think its actually draining in my case, the phone deep sleeps fine but the drain with screen on is just appaling, since I got it I only got 4 hrs Max SoT thats with MM and N. It just seems that the battery generally sucks.
As of now, i have 84%: sot 23% 48 min - phone idle 20% (time on 4 h 35 min). By this it means i'll get about 3.5 hrs SoT which is normal in my case (though not good in my opinion)
I've just updated to the lastest .374 from .327. From what I experienced, the standby battery life have improved. I left it overnight and it only lost 2% (unlike 7% like before) which is probably ok for now.
Do you want to say.....that leaving the phone all the night....it lose 2% only???? I can't belive....normally it goes down by step of 2/3% for hours....so in 7/8 night you have to lose at least a 20%....minimum....
Well my battery result probably need more testing but it has never lost up to 20% per night. It would be outrageous if that happens. Are you sure there isn't anything that continuously running in the background of your phone? You could try a factory reset? Usually losing that much of battery per hour is only when the phone is actively being used, I think.
HI all,
I need help figuring out what drains my battery, it drops from 100 to 79% over night which is too much of course. I tried factory reseting but the issue persists. I'm on the latest firmware, rooted with magisk 19.2, have a ton of apps but none indicate battery drainage in the battery settings so I installed betterbatterystats and hope someone can tell me what's the issue
btw another issue that I had on my last phone as well, I get randomly three short vibration without any nottification, as it was present on the last phone like it it now it must be related to an app, how to figure out which one?
Good Day everyone,
I wanted to ask if a couple of yours are running already the latest 10.0.8 OOA and experienced battery drain? My smartphone will just go up to 4-5 hours SOT (with luck and light usage) and I feel after upgrading from 10.0.6, it won't last as long as before. I'm on stock firmware just running Renovate V14 and Magisk 20.4. My phone is now nearly 1 and 1/2 years old, was mostly only charged up to 80% by limiter in this time, sometimes only for calibration purpose full.
But unfortunately, I did deeply discharged it 2-3 times where it did shutdown itself, could that killed some battery cells? (but normally it should not because of charging electronics)
I have a feeling it could be caused by Google Play services, they are running all the time in the background. Is that normal? I did no look on that stats before...
Any suggestions, what I could do on that subject? Every kind of are highly appreciated
A Screenshot of this behavior. All other applications are working fine. Just YouTube and Music by BT mostly was used.
I think this issue is addressed in the latest issue.
