Lumia 800 battery issue - Nokia Lumia 800

Hello everyone ..ive just bought lumia 800 a week ago , and i love this phone very much ..but i find the battery life is not good ..i get only 15hours in time remaining under battery saver setting after full recharge
Also its have latest firmware 12070 .
.if anyone can help it would be gr8 and btw im from india

15 hrs is not that long.. However.. how much usage is the phone getting.. if you using the phone constantly.. even in battery saving mode it will drain quite quickly..

Very stange.
My lumia works for 5 days with no charge.

I have 710 and it also lasts for 15 hours in 12120 tango
Sent from my Lumia 710 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App

Mine only lasted a few hours when I first got it, and 2 weeks later I'm getting nearly 2 days standby from it with occasional calls and usage
Seems like it takes a couple weeks for the battery to start holding its charge properly or the sensors to calibrate
But just playing 1 game of bowling for less than an hour will still eat 40% battery.

I have had mine almost two weeks and I find it to be a lot worse than my previous Android phones (HTC Hero and Desire HD). Are you using 'as items arrive' for the email 'Download new content' setting? Changing this to check every hour seems to help a bit.

Maybe with 3G switched off and no use what so ever. Otherwise it's just not possible and we all know it.

Don't trust that info. Have you actually noticed how long it lasts in real life? The remaining time is an estimate and changes depending on your use. If you game for a few minutes it will shrink to like 3 hours left. But will your phone die after 3 hours because of that if you stop playing?
Stop looking at estimates and see how long it lasts in real life.

How long does your battery last?

Hey guys, I just wanted to know how long the Battery lasts in your Ace.
For example my Ace has to be charged almost every day.
When playing a lil bit or surfing the internet (Wifi/2G) my battery looses 10% or sometimes even more in just an hour.
On the other side, i've heard from other people, who's batterys last almost two days (and they're using their phones, not just standby).
So i'd like to compare my batterytime with you guys .
I'm on KPE (not Villainrom, not yet ^^) and most of the time i get arround 24 hours plus or minus some hours, depending on the daily use.
Charge my ace every day with 70 or so percent left. The phone will probably last a day or two.
Battery:
2.3.3 (KPE) - www,email, games(ex DragRacing, FruitNinja) ~11h
2.3.3 (KPE) - sms, talks ~ 55h (record)
Villainrom (wipe battery) - (2G,synchronization off )www,email, games ~6h
im gettin 3 days with wifi,facebook,games,surfing and took some pics use battery calibrater for these results
how s possible, 55 hours, you didnt use the phone correct?
and about what mr galaxyaceking said; im gettin 3 days with wifi,facebook,games,surfing and took some pics use battery calibrater for these results, how do you calibrate the battery??
there is a app for battery calibration,also im srry i meant 2 days

55h - only talk, zero www,email,etc
A colleague from the forum ..... his record 3d 18h record (image). It would be more, but need to connect phone via USB. He made a few calls and sms.
mine lasts 40-70 hours with 2G only,some wifi internet,games(fruit ninja,fishin2go), talking, and no synchronization. but record is 98 with minimal usage
Mine is sucks...
Sync always on for: gmail, g-reader, contacts, & calendar.
SMS about 5-10 times
Call duration for +/- 15 minutes.
Internet for bworsing without images >.<
Games: doodle frops, frozen bubble, fruit ninja, etc
Discharge @ 07:00 gonna find charger in hurry @ 12:00 something.
ACE battery life for me is sucks!
It almost feels like like there are differenty quality-types of batterys. Some people get arround 2 days while really using it, while some other people can't even get through the day...

Here is my fact:
For using market (downloading with EDGE) and browsing (without loading images) my discharge rate is @ 12% - 15% an hour. You can test by your self.
I dare you to use 3G
How come people said they phone last for 3 days?
It'll happen when you don't use your phone at all. I bet 3 days is 90% standby 10% usage.
When I use GPS( SYGIC ) my phone hardly lasts for about 4-5 hrs (I dont use GPS continuously). When I play games such as scooter hero, angry birds, doodle jump etc and wifi always connected it lasts for about 12 hrs. And one more thing I'm always on 2G.

i agree, i donno how they get the battery life with the kind of usage they have. i use half of it yet it struggles to last 9 hours.
i am thinking of getting those 1500amh battery that are in ebay, a few users have used it and got 2 days worth life with full usage.
@Bluffyone
is it possible to use an other Battery like 1500amh / 1700amh without problems for the hardware?

yeah thats to be considered but few works. and they are cheap so can be tried out if ur lucky then they might work better than the stock.
@C0ldie
these batteries are specifically made for samsung ace only and so it is usable
and using the SGS battery in SGA will not work, or does it?
i havent seen anyone doing that so i cant say

Download Battery Calibrator from Market!
Or read this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102602
Its normal if your ace only last for 10-12 hours if your always on 3g(downloading,browsing,etc) and gaming. I have 3 samsung phones(ace,sgs,wave1) and their battery goes down very fast if I switch on the 3g/wifi and when im playing games on it.
Without 3g/wifi. Around 40 sms a day and few calls my Ace last for 2 days.

Does anyone get good battery life

I am on my second blue Lumia. The battery life on both has been pathetic. 6-10 hours max, even without touching the phone. And that is on both recent firmware versions.
I am wondering whether to bother exchanging it or just try for a refund.
Sent from my TITAN X310e using Board Express
I'm on second day. Not using it much, 20 min calls, few sms, hour of browsing and board express on wifi. I'm still on 50%.

I will be on my second lumia tomorrow, i have gotten a black one as a replacement instead of the blue one again.
If anyone is having issues what colour of phone do you have? Might be a long shot but you never know.

I haven't battery problems..
My bomb is the Black Lumia 800 unlocked
Mine's pretty good, although I had a brief period where it was absolutely shocking.
Battery was great until the last update. Was getting around 26-30 hours, now getting 14-16 hours.
From factory my Lumia was sketchy (preloaded with 11501). Got battery drain sometimes. Did a factory reset and it hasn't come back yet. Getting good life now. Can make it two days without charge.
My lumia has the latest ROM but the old firmware and the battery till now is pretty good
45- 60 min calls
almost an hour gaming
20 - 30 min browsing
all push notifications on
a lot of apps like whatsapp which requires push is on
still I have almost 30% remaining in the night when i keep it for charging.
I think almost all who has the new firmware is having batterry issues
Yesterday was my first day of full ownership, so I used the phone a fair but but not really heavy. The battery died around 10pm. Bit disappointed, it needs another 10-20%.

First few days the battery isnt as good as it should be. I guess you will get that 20% more in the next few days.

Wouldnt expect it lol, i had mine a week. Battery was shocking at the start. Got better then got really worse.
Just keep an eye on it, thats all i can suggest if your not happy then do what i done, contact your phone provider and get it changed.
i have 1 to 1.5 days of battery with normal usage, few calls, sms, music, browsing, etc. i have the Cyan Version
Today my Lumia barely made it through the day. Unplugged it from charger at 6.14 am now I'm at home from work and I got 10% battery left. Specs:
Country Variant: CV Denmark (514 v. 01)
Color: Cyan
OS: 7.10.8107.79
FW: 1600.2479.7740.11451
Mostly I get really low battery performance, and the phone is most of the day in standby.
got my new black lumia today....currently charging it before using it(had to set it up though)
Battery Status

Voltage 4.174 V (this ranges +/- 1)

Remaining Charge Capacity 1271mAh
1511mAh !! Do you have the 11500 update?
No i have just plugged my phone into Zune and im updating as i type....
---------- Post added at 10:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:12 PM ----------
Ok so now that i have done my update here are my stats...
Current Charge Capacity - 1484 mAh
Remaining Charge Capacity - 1240 mAh
Question..........why has this changed via an update?
Thanks for all the info. Really interested in peoples real life experiences.
My first Lumia lasted about 12 hours with my typical usage. My second lasts a little less, maybe 10 hours.
I had an HD7 which on Mango lasted about 20 hours with my usage - but I think its battery was damaged as it did weird things.
I have a TITAN which lasts 30+ hours for me.
I really want the Lumia to work for me though, but how many times can I return it!?
see my only problem is im with vodafone on my contract and the only windows phone they have is the lumia. I could cancel but no point over a phone. I do really hope its a software problem. I would never of expected this from nokia. I shall keep everyone updated anyway. Im testing the hell out this one just now lol

Because that update fixes a battery bug that lets you charge up the phone like 15% more.
Some feedback for you guys...my findings are actually rather shocking to be honest. So last night i left both my iphone 4s and my lumia on standby throughout the night. It was roughly 6Hr 30Mins on standby during this time here are my findings...
Nokia Lumia FW ver 11500 - decreased 20% in that time Battery Capacity - 1412 mAh
iPhone 4s FW Ver 5.0.1 - Decreased 2% in that time. Battery Capacity - 1432 mAh
What the hell is going on with this phone lol.

Lag on lumia 800 with 12070?

Hello from Greece.
Has anybody noticed it?
Excuse me for my bad English.
I am reading for battery problems but with previous firmware i had 4 days battery and with 12070 i have 3 days and 1 hour from last charge and 2 days and 1 hour remaining time without battery saving mode and the battery sows 45%!!!!
call your local Nokia care center, my battery life went from a day and a half heavy use to 2 and a half with 12070, it must be a device flaw.
I have 5 days battery life now and i can finally turn off the vibration!!!!!
I just say that i was not having battery issues with the previous firmware and now it's even better.
About the lag?
Its only me?
my son and I both have Lumia 800s and experience no lag after the update.

Battery service life with new firmware 1750.0805.8773.12220

Hey,
I just wanted to start this thread to collect our experiences and current configurations about the battery service life since updating our Lumias to the new firmware release 1750.0805.8773.12220, because mine seems to be much better than before.
My configuration and usage is as follows:
3G now always enabled (though poor 3G signal)
1 IMAP account retrieving mails every 15 minutes
1 Windows Live account retrieving new objects every hour
Facebook account with standard settings
about 30 SMS a day
about 40-50 WhatsApp messages
listening to music about 2-3 hours a day
about 30 minutes Facebook a day
So battery drain is now about 3-5% an hour.
I updated my Lumia 800 via zune and now I have firmware 1750.0805.8779.12221. couldnt notice any changes after 12140. confused...
still a day and a half for me on 2g after the update...
I think this update has all but ironed out all the battery issues. I cannot expect Nokia to do anything more with the battery as it has been almost 6 months since the Lumia's release. If there was a big battery bug it surely would have been ironed out by now. So i do not expect anymore miracles from any software update from this point on. 14-15 hours is fair enough according to me for this phone. Wouldn't ask for more!
I'm very happy with this update, because battery drain was about 7-10% before (x.12072) on same settings.
Maybe Nokia hasn't listed all the fixes in the changelog.
So now, I wouldn't aks for more, because I can use my smartphone as long as my old DesireHD or even longer.

where are you from? because you've got the 8779 oem firmware? rm-801? which country?
Mine i have 2 hours spent all day in Twitter, 1 hours in Facebook, 20 SMS, 3 hours of talking, 1 hour of Internet, 2 e-mail accounts syncing mail as soon as arrives, Accuweather,Live Calendar and Connection Tiles running on background and i uses only EDGE, i get only 1 day and a few hours, i think that its the normal.
Battery drain
I should not have to charge my phone every single day...
I don't often make calls or send sms'. My 2 email accounts are set to download every hour and my twitter account is barely used. I mainly use the phone for a 10 minute game a day and the rest of the time it gets used to read a chapter or two of an ebook. (while not busy at work )
But, battery drain is expected. I suppose I'd get better battery life if I let the phone discharge completely and then recharge from the wall plug instead of charging when the battery is around 20% at night.

I think it wouldn't affect it too much, because it's a lithium polymer battery inside our phones.
I also noticed that, with normal use the battery pass 2 days

Bugger. Guess I will cross my fingers and hope that somehow the drain decreases. :fingers-crossed:
If not, I have my charger with me at all times anyway :victory:
Nokia Win
its been 2 days since i updated and ive noticed that the battery level is enduring longer =), not sure if it is a placebo effecto or something, because the battery before the update was already very enduring.
Lumia 800 for the Win =)

I bought this phone from finland, the day it was released(059N3K4). I was using this chineese 12140(059P4C2) before the update. yesterday, zune said there is an update, and did update.
now,
os version is 7.10.8773.98 but firmware version is, as I told earlier, 1750.0805.8779.12221.
there seems to be no change but maybe a slight better battery performance, if there is really any.

It's actually a lithium-ion battery - not quite the same thing as lithium ion polymer batteries.
well it may be wishful thinking - but the battery does seem a little stronger (after a hard reset (the volume + power button). Looking at the diagnostic app the battery drain of ~75mA is more consistent than it was previously.. 18hours is good enough for me - still carry a juice pack though
with normal usage I can get past 2 days without a problem. the last firmware update is great
I see an improvement also. Have had the update for a week and believed it to be wishful thinking in the beginning. But it is consistent. Not dramatically, but definitely better. Especially under 3G.

Guys i used the china variant of tango, before the global release.
I noticed 3G is excellent on china variant, once set it gives me an "H" throughout.
I noticed the UK variant i flashed (tango) has browser problems with facebook, keeps giving error to "Try again"
There is export to sim in china
and the battery is extremely good, way better in the china.
So mayb the UPDATE from ZUNE and the flashed FW mayb have a difference
i will test a ZUNE update and let you;ll know
With Standby my Lumia lasts at least 22 hours with a 4-5% batterydrain per hour.. max 24 hours. (3g on, 5 mail accounts / 2hours, 2 BG tasks, 3 Push Apps.)
With minimal use i can use the device 12-16 hours.
My provider have 3G only, so i cannot use E or GSM.

Screen on time

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Xiaomi Mi A2 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Been using the Mi A2 (4gb/64gb) for 2 days now. 70% will give you about 4 hours+ screen on time. So i'm expecting to last comfortably till 5 hours. Battery drain is good, slept for 10 hours and lost 6%, screen did not turn on anytime during that period.

I'm impressed!!!
Here's mine .. battery is enough for my usual usage.

For the above screenshots, I fully charge it in the evening a day before. I bought the device 3 days ago. Can only measure the battery life after finished setting up to my likings. I think the battery will be better after few full cycles. Today is my 2nd full cycle to test after fully charge it last night.
Add:
4+ hrs SOT on 50% battery usage
I fully charged the device last night. I'm on 35% right now with 2:30 Screen on Time.
I have no idea how you guys manage 5h+

how do you guys get those insane screen on times? I get maybe a max of 3.5
I have gps always on, and mobile data but it alternates with my home wifi.
I really do not get it. Before i have a redmi note 3 and a redmi 5 plus and i never broke the 4.5 h mark. It's only because of the GPS and data?

How is your cellular reception? Do you usually have good signal? Bad signal can cause a lot of battery drain
well, this has always been a problem, I even changed carriers this year.
it sucks that in oreo you can't see the reception signal chart anymore
