Is anyone else having issues with this phone loosing around 20% to 30 % after a restart. It doesn't happen everytime but sometimes when the phone is turned off and on the battery drops from, for example , 50% to 30%. I had this issue with official roms and unofficial roms.
Hi mali019, this happen to me as well, i'm not sure this is cause by the battery itself or the phone itself. My phone will auto restart when the battery usage is @ 4x percent. After itself restarting. The battery will drop to 33 percent every time. I'm swapping a battery with a fren of mine and started testing today. I'm using KG6 roms.
never had that problem...
Do you guys quit apps or just press the home button? Use the in-built task manager, it's good.
I don't use taskmanagers. Only use the one that comes with the phone. This problem happend on every rom i tried. From 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 . I'm gonna buy the new 2000mah and see if it happens again.
Just now i pulled out the battery without turning the phone off and battery percentage dropped from 41% to 22% . Currently I'm using KG6

Isn't that what I've said?
Anyway, you can try installing Watchdog from Market to see if you have apps misbehaving and what is using you cpu.

The problem is not an app using the battery. The problem is the phone loosing 20-30 % percent battery after a restart. The phone is not displaying the correct battery percentage.
I even had the battery percentage increasing after a restart without being pluged in to a power point. For example I'll restart the phone for any reason with a battery percentage off 50%. After the restart the battery percentage will show 23%. Sometimes the percentage will increase like its on charge. It will go up to 30%.
Never had this problem better get checked the battery in Samsung service center
Said that because it happened to me that if the phone gets hot, percentage drops. Later, it returns to a higher percentage.
I was experiencing the auto restart and instant battery drain issue while using ninphetamine 2.1.x
After changing to other kernel. No more auto restart nor instant battery drain issue.
You might need to a battery calibration.
I got a new battery ( Perks of working at a phone shop ) hopefully it will fix the issue
I also notice that it takes quit some% after each restart but not 20%. Actually the battery was good when I first got this phone. But after 175 apps installed, battery isn't good anymore.

Today I left my phone in my room and after an hour I wanted to check my emails before going to bed the screen did not turn on so even after a long press on the power button, so I removed the battery (it was ice cold) after replugging it booted and voila there was a huge drop 50 percent perhaps? So I said to myself, I think I left a resource intensive app running and forgot about it and went to bed without plugging the charger, 3 hours later I wake up thinking it would give me a critical or charge your phone dialog, but instead I have a battery that charges itself ...
Now in reality that would be cool but i think there is a problem. Using the ninphetamine 2.0.4 kernel for a few days for bln but it was disabled, stock rom.
I have attached two screenshots one taken right after and the other one 3 hours or so after.
I don't think that I would need a recalibration after a few charges the phone is not a week old.
Hi, I have this exact problem with cognition+ Siyah kernel, how can I fix it??
So I changed the kernel and everything seems ok now, my problem was with Siyah Kernel.

I experienced same problem - I was browsing, then phone restarts itself and the battery is instantly on 18% (from 50%).
And then started to recharge itself.
Stock 2.3.4 ROM (version XWKH4), running the same configuration for nearly two months now, with only few restarts (once in 20 days), no new app installed recently.
Maybe some glitch in internal electronic?
Same problem, just a bit more drastic. My phone seems to freeze, in which I have to manually restart it. And then I see the battery falls sharply. This is on stock Firmware (unrooted) too.
My phone was 100%. I left it uncharged and went to sleep. The next day it is 61% left...
I see the battery stats and it was device idle eating up to 22%... What is wrong with it?
Are you on stock rom?
Try flashing another rom from android development topic. After backing up your original rom I really recommend flashing it.

I too have this...
I installed better battery stats and it shows wlan_rx_wakelock. This is wifi waking your phone. You can try a static IP address, this fixes the issue for some. Or change you wifi sleep policy to "never". Wifi will turn off when phone is sleeping ad will use data instead.
I'm trying to sort my issue too.

Static IP ? how ?
This looks familiar to my problem. For me this only happens on some WIFI-networks... The orange arrow is always on, or blinking very often. So it looks like something is downloading. I found out this data is being downloaded to Android OS (large Keep Wake Time)...

You say device idle is draining your battery but you are missing the elephant in the room, android os drained 36% of your battery, that means you have a wakelock problem.
Download betterbatterystats and check to see what is keeping your phone awake when it should be in deep sleep.
Device idle drain is normal when your device is idle.

For My S2 on JB leak I had the same issue with device idle taking a lot of battery. I frozen the Google Maps app via Titanium and everything was back to normal. Hope this will help.
Hi there I was checking my battery stats and I don't know if "idle device" should have that high percentage... any advice?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Well your phone has been on battery for quite some time, so it's normal that Android itself accumulated a lot of drainage. Note that it is not in absolute terms but comparatively; and compared to the phone running for 2 days that's ok.
Hi all, I want just to ask you if my battery drain is normal . I am on stock rooted odexed, stock kernel, s off. See the screen I did

Fast Battery Drain
Hi Frenix,
I also have an HTC ONE MAX. It's new and I've the same problem. IT'S NOT NORMAL FOR 3200mA!! See the screen I did, also if I don't use the phone, the battery drain very fast... (the first 7 hours the I didn't use the phone and it was in airplain mode). When I don't use it, the battery goes down very fast but when I use it, the battery works correctly!! This is Crazy!!! I've tried everything like charge cycles, disable all connections, reset the system to factory settings, and reset the statistics of the battery. It is definitely a sowftware problem, because if the battery is under stress, it works correctly! Consumption is given by 50% by phone on standby or idle and if the phone is also TURN COMPLETELY OFF, it drain faster than the phone turn on. I don't really what's the problem, but is not possible that a 3200mA battery drain in 1 day also if you don't use it. Do you report the same problem?

Looks to me like a wakelock issue. Some application is preventing the system from going into sleep mode. I'm working on the same issue.
When working properly, the phone should only ever be awake when the screen is on.
Use GSam Battery Monitor from the Playstore to see what is eating the battery and go from there. Depending on what ROM and if rooted or not, you can more than likely correct the issue.
calibration
i probed of calibrate the batery??
I'm running Nusense my wake lock was caused by Google Now (search). Try disabling it and see what happens. I used an app called wake lock detector.

My HAM2 is reporting battery level incorrectly. It keeps on going normally till about 35% and then within a few minutes, it drops down to zero and turns off. I have used the battery calibration app to try to reset the battery stats but to no avail, the problem persists. Any help will be appreciated. The ham2 is rooted and TWRP installed.

While not to the same degree, I notice once I get to about 10%, it's a crap-shoot as to whether I'm going to get another hour or so or 10 minutes. The longer I have this phone, the more I notice it's a buggy mess.

That is usually a sign of a damaged battery.
Mine is only week old but I've run down under twenty percent and it's drained and dropped consistently. Might contact Huawei since it has two year warranty.
I'll run mine down today and see what I experience.

27% all seems fine. I'll watch netflix for a while and check again.

19% all battery stats report the same. Still watching Netflix. Seems you may have either done something to cause report errors or it is indeed a faulty battery. Good luck

Try recalibrating your battery, if your phone is reporting incorrect charge. The BMS within the battery might need reset.
When your phone is down to "critical level" (before the phone is ready to turn off) reboot into Recovery Mode. Let phone sit and drain until it empties.
Once empty, let sit for 4 hours. This will reset the "low value".
Charge with phone off to 100%, leave phone off. Unplug and let sit off for another 4 hours. Turn phone back on and use as normal, the battery *should* be recalibrated. The reason for waiting is to redefine a "high" and "low" charge state. If current is constantly being supplied or drained, then it will see those values as a "blip" rather than a calibration number.
It isn't always a bad battery, sometimes it's just miscalibrated.

I have this problem too. When my battery gets down to about 15%, I get a warning that I must plug in my charger immediately. I have to do it within 15 seconds or so or my battery plummets all the way to 0% and shuts down the phone. My phone is not rooted, so I don't think I have a "Recovery Mode". Or do I? Would I use the same procedure and be able recalibrate my battery ? When I restart my phone by regular (unrooted) startup after a 100% charge and 4 hour wait, would I get a Recovery Mode option or not? If not would it still recalibrate the battery?
How much are you guys losing overnight ? I'm draining about 1%/hr in stand-by now (deep sleep) , I remember I used to lose max 2% overnight awhile ago

Google made some changes recently in its services that has had a negative effect on battery life. I am sure they will fix it. Lots of people complaining about it on a lot of different devices.

I checked last night and I lost 2% over 7 hours. I'm using an L05 so I dunno how much of a difference that makes.

Yea this was similar to my drain months ago . Eh idk why it's changed . Have had the same setup all this time , with amplify (wakelocks/alarm blocker) and deep sleep when screen off (PowerNap) . I have switched the sim to at&t (previously T-Mobile) .. Though both have a similar signal range at home . Not sure , will try with a t mobile sim again and will compare .

Hi! I have a Galaxy S6 edge for a few weeks and I am disappointed in the battery life. It drained from 100% to 65% in the ultra power saving mode with turned off screen and disabled any network conntections within 5 hours! I really dont know what to do... I use Clean Master and Greenify and deactivated most of the services running in background and I didnt get any solutions. Please help!
the battery drainage could be due to the fact you use CM and greenify…
if I'm on 100% and I turn on ultra mode i get over a days use.. what do you have running in the background?
Hi, I had the same problem.
What made it better for me: I cleaned the cache and used phone till 0% till it shut downed and then let it charged overnight.
Today is first day and at the moment i have had 2% battery drain per hours on idle, 4G turned on.
