How to improve battery standby mode? - HTC U11+ Questions & Answers

My phone for overnight often lost 14-20% of the battery, when I restarted the phone this problem was fixed in 1 night, the following nights were like that. How to fix this problem?

What fixed if for me was to disable a lot of the default apps added to the phone through adb. I was trying everything and that was what solved it. I am not entirely sure which apps (have the list at home on my pc) but in general anything that is not stock android and just added by HTC (like Alexa)

Didn't have this issue, battery life remains the same as with Oreo for me. I'm losing 1 or 2% battery life on one night!

N° 2 Nexus 5 16gb : Battery problem

Hii,
I have n° 2 nexus 5 16 gb:
- 4.4.4
- everything stock
- restored defoult
- without application
- without settings configuration: they are the same original settings
- without sim card
- charged in same time from 0% to 100%
- the two phones are part of the same lot
- no wifi connection
- no 3g signal
I noticed an abnormal consumption using the 2 device, sooo:::
I tried to keep them on the table and the batteries are consumed in different ways:
After 1 hour, the first is still 100%, the second is 97%
after a about 3 day the first nexus is 40%, the second is at 1%
same screen on/off
please, what I can do?

Installed and now ?????
I should be able to solve it by tomorrow because I need the phone for travel.
Otherwise I just have to throw the nexus 5 in the toilet (really) and back to the Apple Iphone.
If I have a problem Apple changes the cell in less than one hour.
With google I have to wait 40 days (bought in a mall).
Check what's using your battery, likely an app. Check for apps that have been held awake in app usage stats. You can then use greenify or appopsx to tame that app

I wrote that I have no application installed or not ...... did you read my first post??
Gmail, Google search etc are all apps, right? It's probably an app being kept awake by wakelock. Use GSAM Battery monitor to check what is eating up your battery
in 24 min I have battery at 95%
But the 2 nexus 5 are the same: is possible that the first N5 eat battery and the second N5 no?
In my experience with using nexus 5, the biggest culprit is most of the time Google search so I just use greenify and appopsX
yere a screen of the app:

try this it works for me
1-go to settings -sync (tick Google ) then remove all check mark (gmail sync,pisca .....)
do the same if you have WhatsApp account, viper .....
2-after install gsam app see your wakelocks it should look like this
open app usage then stop apps that drain a lot of battery
in my case I would disable Google plus ,Google play stand

but I need to do that in all 2 nexus 5?
I dont need to do a change in only one of n5 ..... the n5 are the same and one eat battery the other one no eat battery:
when I reinstall 4.4.4 the 2 n5 must be the same with the same battery..... I think
I dont need to resolve problem orf the one N5 ......... i need to do not generate the problem after reinstal the operative sistem .......
Just use the battery monitor to check what's killing your battery and you still haven't done that

I don't know but this tips helps me I just want shear it with you ... may I ask you when the battery drain when you using it or when screen off ?
I have that:
Looking at your screenshot. It seems too soon to know the app causing that. You monitor it for a while or greenify or disable the apps that have been suggested.
Sorry sorry sorry ...... I need to repeat the problem
2 nexus 5, same in all (really all)
all stock
no sim card
the n5 are the same
same original settings after install 4.4.4
no root
original recovery
bootloader unlocked
If I put timeot display to 30 minutes:
after hours the first N5 have 100% battery , the second N5 have 90%
now......
I need to not generate the problem by original.... without other app because the 2 N5 are the same OK????

expand battery life on Moto X Play 5.1.1

Hi there,
i was playing around now for some time to expand my battery life in our phone. Maybe some of you know this but i wanted to share my experience which helped me a lot with battery issues.
My main problem was the short standby time. Taking a look into the battery statistics always says my main battery drainers where external applications und the google (play) services. Taking a little more deeper looks says that my main battery drain seemed to be caused in the 'Mobilfunkschnittstelle aktiv' (mobile radio interface active?) entry. I had values of multiple hours here beeing active.
I usually disable the location services because i dont need them. Which can be different for you, of course. Also i usually play around with BetterBatteryStats and Autostarts app for analyzing and disabling various services. This time i skipped this and went across a xposed module in the web.
So, the simple trick for me was to flash xposed with twrp (root needed of course) and install the xposed MobileRadioActiveFix module.
After fixing this i now have a 4 days run time with at least 6 accounts syncing and a weather app and so forth. I didnt have that before on any other device. By the way: i'm not using my phone very often and i don't wont to say: 'i have the biggest', don't want to compete but only suggest giving it a try if you suffer from low standby time.
Regards.
A little PS: some other good xposed modules i'd like to suggest:
- GEL settings: to edit google launcher, eg. removing the google search bar and the homescreen grid
- Battery Percentage Text
are you on lollipop or MM ???
I am on lollipop and I had tried this module a while back it didn't work.
and are you on mobile data or WiFi ???... because with mobile data on ..radio active shows on my battery stats.
what is your SOT now ???

lollipop, as the title says
Usually i am on mobile data. And of course there is still some time on radio active in the stats but its way less then before. My first entry in the battery stats where 'google (play) service' with 15% or more. Second was a 'mail client' with 12% and other external apps. This all went better after installing the xposed fix. My first entry now is 'mobile standby'
My SOT is something around 5 hours. Please, dont forget: i really not using my phone very often. My main goal was extending the standby time.
My experience with other devices: depending on the quality of your signal strength your battery can vary heavily. But i guess, thats something you already know. I, btw. have a good 4g signal here.

well cheers, we have the same goal. i used amplify+greenify then i uninstalled exposed and started testing how long i could extend battery on stock and doze+greenify. i have removed maximum google apps and i am constantly getting 1+hour of SOT for every 10% battery. i am on dual sim[one of it is roaming] and i am on mobile data. now i am gonna give exposed another shot, hope radiofix works this time.
'Mobile standby' is a problem i have tried to fix it many times but failed, it eats battery when i am on data which is always, if you find a solution please post it here.
you could disable background data for play services to squeeze more juice out of your battery and about mail app drain i suggest you take a look at F-Droid it's a collection of open source softwares.

But most have already updated to MM. If it works then it's a good thing.

I found that disabling background data for affect apps seemed to help on 5.1, but this limits device experience.
I'm on MM now and usually get all day stand by and about 5 to 6 hours SOT. Today I have 5 hours of voice calls and 2 of SOT and am at 40% battery which isn't bad. Off charge at 5:30 am and it is currently 8:30pm. That's excellent for me. MM is a great update for battery on these phones.
Edit: I meant to say as well that the 5 hours of voice was over a Bluetooth headset. Pretty busy day

Battery drain after Oreo update?

So, after updating to Oreo, I noticed that my battery doesn't last long as when it was still in Nougat. I know full wipe is often the best recourse but I don't want to have to go through deleting all my apps and data and reinstalling them afterwards. That takes a loooooot of time. Anyone else who might be having the same issue? Also, any tips other than full wipe/factory reset would be much appreciated. Thanks!
i met the same issue also
before oreo, my phone battery was last long
when im gaming it almost take 6hour+ to drain off the battery
after updated it drain 40% within 2+ hours
so can i downgrade from oreo ?
somebody know what is the solution ?
Your device is probably learning how you use it (again) and I'd recalibrate the battery (let the battery die and charge to 100% with the device off)
I think you'll be back to normal after a few days
No issue here. My battery is just as good on Oreo, if not better.
Same here. Battery drains obviously faster. There's an app that obviously doesn't know how to behave with oreo.
No issues here, but I did a full wipe and start again fresh.. So far down to 42% at just on 4hrs SOT.. should easily get my usual 5.5hrs or there abouts
Guys always do a factory reset after a major update.
my battery was not good at android 7
but i flashed android 8 with newflasher
and turned on limited background activity and background data usage at app info for all of the system apps and other apps that support this feature.
my battery in android 8 has been perfect
and free ram is about 1.9 gb always

i suggest you to do that

Of course you're 100% right but sometimes it's just too much work. In any case my update settled down very nicely after 2 days.:good:
I disagree 100% with the need to do a factory reset after an upgrade! What, are we on version 2 of Android??? By this time, and with what we pay for these devices (and don't think that the software is free because it's NOT) and with the fact that they have become essential tools for most people, we should NOT have to do a factory reset every time a new(er) version is released and thereby forced upon us! It is up to the OEM to test these things thoroughly to make sure they work as advertised and expected. I do not have an entire day to devote to getting things set up correctly every time this occurs. If the OEM's do not want to test things properly then they should give us the option of installing at our own risk, and not mandating the upgrade.
I agree with you guess my battery is way better now, keeping in mind I have lifelog app and live wallpaper running in the background the whole day, I love 30% since the last time I charged, 6 hours since I unplugged the device and I have 1,30 hours screen on. Oreo is perfect ?

go to setting > apps > app info > touch 3 dot and choose show system > touch on every app that you want to limit it then go to > battery > turn off background activity
for limit background data instead of battery choose data usage and turn of background data
i suggest you to turn off these for all of the apps

Lobotomizing your phone like that beats the purpose of having latest n greatest functionalities from an OEM / Android. Although I wish there was a wakelock adjustment as a default setting w/o root. It all comes to personal preferences. I only limit background activities to apps I almost never use and I let the rest do their thing cause I like some of the google services and also some tasker profiles require a frequently updated context .
As for RAM, it is meant to be used and now android is smart enough to adjust the resource consumption on it's own without the need of a app killer which does a lot more harm.
Needless to say Google Assistant keeps on pushing it's Ok Google Anytime function down our throats. It's now easier to accidentally activate it and they did nothing to optimize the power use of that thing. I tried it thinking maybe it's usable now. But it actually managed to overheat the phone leading to ~10% battery drain/hour (just because i had tv shows playing and it was comparing the dialog to the hotword). Not 'Ok Google'.
Sooo make sure you have that disabled. Otherwise you're in for a nasty surprise in loud environments.
It's better, I would say.

Try this app. Very comprehensive usage stats.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sp
And don't forget to grant usage permissions via ADB for extended details.
We should post battery drain/hour and SoT.
Hi
I have the same problem. I've repare instalation by PC companion and it's still not working ok.

My battery was at 96% at 4pm yesterday, this morning at 5.30am it was 15%. This is crazy drainage, I used it sparingly yesterday afternoon, it was at 60% by 9.30pm (bedtime). I didnt touch from 9.30pm to 5.30am. 45% drainage with absolutely nothing running. Thats nuts. Has the battery gotten anyway back to normal for anybody? Or is there a fix without factory resetting the phone?

Few Sony Xz problems [ need help]

Hello, members!
I updated my sony about month ago to new android version Oreo (Android 8.0) and at first i was happy that Sony made an update, but when i started to work more with this version day to day i found that there are things that i dont like!
First thing with apps and folders
Apps like Facebook and Massenger all the time show @ app that i have notification (number on the app) and when i open it there is not any notification for me! Apps all the time showing me the same number of notifications on app but there is nothing in it.
Started to search it, maybe somewhere it is - but there is nothing! I deleted apps and install it again - but it show me all the time the same!
I am tired with this thing - i know it is small problem but in my day to day work it is seriously.
Second thing - Guys what we can do with high phone temperature ? Phone is overheating sometimes when i using it and i am not playing games! It getting uncomfortable hot!
Third thing - When phone getting low energy (about 30%) it is automaticly turn on battery saver! Of course phone start to go slow. In setting i can turn off battery saver but it still are slow because i am more than sure that battery saver is still on, but in settings it is off! when i plug charger to phone it starts to work Great!
Can we do something with these things?
P.s. I think it is to many problems for Sony mobile - i was using a lot of Sony phones but about now starting to think change Sony to something else...better!
Hi, I have updated to Oreo as well. Not experiencing the overheating issue. I upgraded to this handset from Galaxy S4 i9507 and that one used to get hot. Maybe try disabling some apps after checking what is using the battery. Maybe you have a sneaky app which is using a lot of CPU.
Generally, this version (second version of Oreo) is a bit slower than Nougat, particularly camera operation. I am seriously considering rooting if I can be sure that DRM and camera will be preserved.
Try factory resetting the device, that tends to solve most of the issues after a big update. Also if your Play services version is 11.7.46 make sure to update to 11.9.51 via apkmirror as the former is confirmed to drain battery.

1. I don't suffer from this issue perhaps try updating your Xperia home launcher
2. The phone does heat up from time to time , all electronics follow the same principle
Electronics will heat up
3. Stamina mode is actually disabled just as it says on the settings, the reason the phone is slow because there is not enough power to be supplied as the demand for performance increases
When power is low your phone struggles to deliver optimal power to performance ratio
To make sure that the phone able to last throughout the day so that you don't miss any calls ,
Performance is decreased in favor for battery runtime

Question My battery drain is insane!

Hello everyone, I'm in trouble.
22 Ultra is simply eating battery at indescribable levels. Yesterday we went on a trip from work, I left my home with 100%. During the day I did not touch the phone, a bit of a camera but beyond that really nothing. My battery was about 40% after about 3 hours, with no screen use at all! On the other hand, a friend at work with Xiaomi came out with 100% and after 3 hours was on 85, and he did touch the phone here and there.
I don't know how that makes sense, and it's no longer clear to me what to do to solve the problem. I debloat, deleted and disabled a number of irrelevant apps but still, the battery is being eaten. How can I solve it? Please help me!
Draining battery so fast, 20% per hour while idle is not normal, so you definitely have a problem.
It looks that there are two possibilities here:
- Battery malfunction
- Some active process in the background that is using lots of processor power constantly.
If battery is damaged / not working properly, the only solution is to replace it. Still, this doesn't look like a case of duying battery.
If you have some persistent process running in the background that you can't get rid of by debloating, it can't be stopped by restarting the phone, and its not visible in the battery usage section, i would say that factory reset is the most effective option here, since you stated that you tried to deal with it in a various ways already.
You could also wait a bit until you get chance to update to OneUI 5 / Android 13, which should solve your problem, if it's software related.
Hope that you will find solution soon

I want to keep the factory reset as the last option....
Every single app that I don't need at the background I disabled from running in background.

Try to wipe your system cache.....it won't do a factory reset but might solve the issue while keeping your phone as it is.
Volume UP button along with the power button until you see Android screen
Scroll down with volume down until you reach wipe system cache and reboot
sometimes, it won't show up while you press the buttons....in that case, connect your phone to your PC/Laptop with any USB C cable and then do it.
Second solution, you can try Samsungs App Booster.....get an apk from the net. It generally helps as well.
