I am having some terrible battery life problems - will upload the screenshot of battery monitor widget history when i get the photo
I am getting -41mA to -29mA overnight when I'm asleep. Is the phone awake or something? This is really strange, unless my battery is broken?
1. Was on VR2.4.2 but bad battery life
2. Re-ODIN'd to KH3 firmware
3. cleared cache/data/dalvik
4. Re-installed VR2.4.2 via SD card in CWM
5. Now on KH3 mode, VR 2.4.2 and ninpho 2.0.4
Can someone help me out please ?

mate this wont show us the main problem.
if u are rooted - u may try following. just advice - cook your ROM through kitchen KH3 and pick only apps that u gonna need and try it. KH3 + speedmod kernel is working just amazing. no drain - no issue.
for battery usage i will recomend u to use betterbatterystats application that is published here on XDA - that app is able to track wakelogs and much more - that will give you more less the idea what can produce the high battery drain.
second disable fast dormacy -*#9900#
uncheck samsung apps notification
and there are much mroe options for you but this are the ones i could remeber right now.
What logs would you need?
I've read in the Litening forum, some guy said when the phone is idle/sleep , it should do about loss of 2-10mA
I used to get 3% loss overnight, not sure what changed. I dont have many apps/mods either
disable fast dormacy and use the juice defender. if u wont be satifsfied change ROM and compare yourself mate.
find the betterbatterystats app and install it - if u can read then u can find the problem yourself - believe me
If you're using Viber, I recommend you to freeze it with Titanium Backup. I was out of juice after maximum 6 hours of moderate usage. After freezing Viber I get over 50% battery left with 15-16 hours of moderate usage.
Hundreds of exact same posts basic start point has to be .

Hey, got my phone yesterday and it's been great.
Updated to KE7 via Kies and I haven't done root yet.
Battery is good. 3G or wifi always on, but when I see the battery stats, they show high percentage of Android OS (16%) and Android System (19%).
Also, 9% of Wi-fi sharing, but I haven't used it yet.
Is there a way to reduce this numbers?
Is it ok if I kill wi-fi sharing here?
Thanks

Just use the phone and dont be another paranoid about usage stats .
You can kill WiFi sharing its sharing your WiFi with others for free .
The page you are looking at says of the xxx amount of power used
the power has been used mostly by the display etc etc .
It is not a measure of the battery power just how its total use has been proportioned out .
No battery stats 100% charged switch on Display shows 74% .
Thats 74% of the 1/4 % of battery used not 74% of the battery .

I don't have wifi sharing turned on it with KE7 it keeps using up the most resources of anything. I ended up having to freeze it.

thanks man.
I'm not paranoid yet.
I'm just concerned if my phone may have any issues.
Actually I don't notice any of the problems people report here.
GPS is locking fine, battery is good. Wi-fi keeps on most of times, it's not getting too hot, etc.
I've just done my first full charge since yesterday.
I'll see how it will perform.
Another question. I can't turn data off. Downloaded APNdroid but it doesn't turn it off.
Is there a way I can put a toggle in the notification bar with wi-fi, GPS, etc?
Sometimes, in idle mode mode, my phone drained battery very quickly (see picture). The best way to meet this case is restart phone, everything is back to normal. And battery life very good on idle mode, about 3-4 hours for 1%
I have tried many ways but can not find the cause. Please help me.
I use stock room .62

You are not stock.... you have something misbehaving. Suggest you think carefully about the tweaks, mods, widgets and apps you deploy. And your settings, like WiFi screen off and so on. This is stock .62...

I'm not sure you're interpreting the graph correctly. The drop from 70% - 50% seems to happen much faster than the area you have circled in the screenshot.
I use the "stock room" and remove bloatware. Root by "root xperia", unlockbootloader.
battery 70% - 50% drop faster because i use wifi for web browser.
list bloatware.

I see. Have you tried Juice Defender? The paid version is excellent!
You may therefore have a crappy app running after browsing... which I haven't as you can see from my curve. What app are you using for browsing?
Avoid "fix-it" widgets like you have and any task killers.... let Android do its thing. It works.
I use default web browser.
Hmmm... so do I. I've just run the browser for a few minutes and closed it. I will check the battery status shortly and report.
How did you update to .62? I did it like this...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20842024&postcount=45
... to avoid "issues" due to flashing over previous builds.
No problem several hours after using Browser...
Also check that the phone is deep sleeping.... other image attached
I have this problem from fw .283, .42 and now .62. I have tried "Force Stop" a few applications running, but have not found cause.
And I will try by installing the new fw .62 and do not delete anything including bloatware.
I have the same problem for fw 0.42.
I had problem with 0battery lvl so I follwed this tut to alteast get the phone working:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1332399
Now I can use the phone without the charger but after 2-3hours the phones dies and needs recharging. Can't find the problem. :/
Today, I switch from "2G" to "3G" to browse the web. And after return to idle mode, battery drained very fast.
When switch to flight mode, all back to normal (2mA on idle mode).
I think a problem in 3g/2g modes.
Story continues....62 stock (rooted)
Linear discharge
PS: Just noticed that you have a history of "Battery Drain" going back to October... with all sorts of weird builds. Perhaps you should avoid installing loads of half-baked apps and widgets. And builds.
I've attached the screen shot of my battery drain. I think it is not at all normal.

These are my current settings :
NB5 Deoxed rom by archi
Greenified many apps including system apps
Free ram is always between 500-580
I didn't install any scripts. Only flashed the S5 aroma zip for s5 system ui and file manager.
Locations services disabled in settings.
Can someone please suggest what to do to reduce the battery drain?

Firstly you should post better results than that screenshot which should be for 1 cycle and use better battery stats to show what your phone is using
keep it on for 4-5 hours on standby after giving root permission and then check in partial wakelocks and kernel wakelocks..

Here's a thing. Are you on 3G? Because I can see that you have a bad network? Try to switch to 2g and check. The yellow line in network show that there are network breaks. It could be a reason for battery drain.
How old is your battery? Use Better battery stats or wakelock detector from Play store and check what the problem is. You can post a screen shot after one complete cycle.
Is Sync enables on your device?
Reboot your phone once before trying all this.
What kind of battery do you have?

Just curious what kind of battery do you have and where you purchased it at? Might be a reason why you are getting battery drain.
Hey guys im using this AOSP rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-2/orig-development/rom-saosp-project-t3228656 .
Since a few days my phone shows 75 % battery usage for "phone idle" and its charging extremely slow. when i use it while charging it even loses battery while still on ac .
Does deep sleep not work anymore? i uninstalled some apps i installed because i thought they might cause this but nothing changed. im trying to calibrate the battery now
but charging to 100 % takes like 12 hours even if i dont use my phone. Does anyone know what suddenly happened?
I have also noticed a constant battery drain since I got my phone a few days ago (I'm on the other AOSP rom on this forum, the one by susch19).
It appears to be common knowledge that MediaTek chips have wifi problems, preventing the wifi module to go to sleep when it should.
If that is your problem, you can see several long-running kernel wakelocks using Wakelock Detector, for example md1_cldma_peer and EINT - mine had been active for about 50% of the time during two days of stats collection.
I have just finished charging my phone to 100% and disabled wifi and will check the battery drain overnight and throughout the next day.
I am using that rom and no problem at all.
Use wakelock detector and greenify/uninstall all offending apps...
i think your are right about the kernel/wifi. here's a screen of wakelock detector.

No idea what those apps are but u should definitely greenify them or do something.
There is an app that switch off net and gps when screen is off with some conditions... don't remember the name.
this is the kernel how am i supposed to greenify it ? there are no apps causing this. i greenified all apps even uninstalled the most and still this battery drain. its probably like Xabin said and has sth to do with the wifi/kernel and the MediaTek chip having wifi problems, preventing the wifi module to go to sleep when it should.
Yep that's why I suggested a smart manager to switch off completely the radio when not in use. Google is your friend.
it is able to reenable radio time to time to catch up with emails or messages...
anyone suffering massive battery drain when using lightly? 15mins of simple browsing and youtube and it drains from 100 to 85%. Im on miui7 lhmmici 7.0.5.0
I was disappointed with the battery drain in miui, but it seems much improved since installing the AOSP Hybrid rom. Also doesn't seem to drain so much with screen on, though I've not quantified it.
Had same problems with wakelocks, but Greenify and Amplify module in Xposed have made a noticeable improvement. Occasionally get a 100% wakelock with aee_core_forwarder. Still not sure what causes it; haven't found a fix other than a reboot.
But overall, I'm satisfied with the battery life now.

It's around 1.7%/h for my Snapdragon S10 lite. Is this normal?
It's normal if some media is running in background, for example. My phone has an average of 0,8%/hour according to AccuBattery.
turn off Bixby and google
turn off adaptive brightness
Seems a little high but I'm on a 10+ with 4300ma battery. Adjust accordingly to your battery capacity.
Nominal AOD battery usage should be about 1% an hour. You can enable tap on for AOD to help determine the source of the drain; usage should be very low like that.
Goggle Backup Transport and Backup Transport Framework were causing excessive battery drain for me both with SOT and off.
Update: left my phone at 99% and woke up to 80%
Here is the usage: GSAM
Look at the 5h of Significant Motion Detector usage of Google Play Services and how the Netflix app is using so much battery (I never opened that app since buying the phone...)
I then proceeded to install Better battery stats and found after some hours of usage a huge Spotify battery drain related to the Linear acceleration sensor.
I am getting kind of tired. Since I started using android (Nokia X2, Lenovo K6 power, Redmi note 7 then S10 lite), I have had some kind of a battery drain on all of those devices. Getting tired of troubleshooting problems rather than use the damn phone.
Ditch spotify or lock it down.
You probably have more crapware...
You need to learn how to optimize these phones.
Play with it.
Hey guys its me again.
I disabled Spotify and still have 20% drain overnight...
What can I do please?
it's great

Install Galaxy Labs>Battery Tracker from the Galaxy store and see what apks it shows is running at night.
Wipe cache in recovery. View what app use your battery. If this don't help make HR (hard reset and wipe all data , ) if this don't help use guarantee ...
I manually updated to One UI 3.0.
No more battery drain as far as I can tell. I will update with overnight drain.

Give a few days especially if power management is enabled.
Battery drain has been corrected with OneUI 3.0
