Hi Folks,
It would be great if you guys can share your battery stats (Not the diagnostics apps, hours (or days?) from battery saver). Our favorite blog, WPcentral, claims that they have tripled their battery life. I can say mine improved by a few hours.
I regularly got 1day 12 hours on my Venue Pro, but it it hard to get 24 hrs on the Lumia even after the update.
Update: I rolled back to the previous version (11500) as I wanted the official version. I got the official 12070 now. Now battery shows 1 day 16 hours.. just like my old Venue Pro. I recommend everyone who used cab update to roll back and install an official update as it started rolling out now.
Remaining battery life: 21%
Time since last charge: 1 day 10 hours
So two full days it can last me. I have used it "normaly". Not heavily and not lightly. 3G on at all times of course.
I had the exact same battery life on 11500. I was never affected by bad battery life to begin with.

I run 3g on/wifi on/bluetooth off/2 push email accounts/1 hourly pull/whatsapp/lync/amazing weather tile and when left while sleeping I get about 11-12 hours runtime according to battery monitor in the morning which is based on no use while I sleep so its the lowest screen use possible. I have a slight advantage with 3G on due to the fact I have a femtocell (mini mobile mast) which usually means the 3G radio doesnt need to amp the power as much.
Turning the Message "Online" for facebook/msn reduced this to about 10 hours as a tip for you all.

For me, this update changes nothing! The Battery drain is still at 180-330 mA... 17 hours battery life with standby, 12 with use. Terrible ...
Even after Hardreset.
In standby it consumes 4-5% / hour.... With a full 3G bar.
Wow Erazor84 your battery life is much better then mine.
My phone was great from day 1 (got it in November 2011), it lasted for almost 48 hours even with original firmware, and charged to 1480mAh. With latest update I get pretty much the same (ie. good) battery life.
Major battery drain seems from poor 3G signal and phone switching between 2G / 3G all the time.

maybe mine is better than yours, but it's way too low... my omnia 7 has the same config and the same apps installed. battery lifetime -> 1day and 36 hours... so the lumia is still a faulty device ...

Which firmware were you before? 11501 or 11500?
Have you done any hard resets/full flashes?
If I had that battery life I would be happy. I thought generally wifi was lighter then 3G but I wonder if thats the reverse on Nokia's.
I'm considering to update my Lumia to the latest 12070 update.
What's the correct way of doing this?
My handset is unbranded, Black bought in Denmark.
I've seen that an Australian version is available in NaviFirm.
Do you have an upgrade procedure? I've Zune, SDK and Nokia Care Suite installed.

To do this and keep your settings you must use a Zune pushed update (official way) or the cab method.
If you use the navifirm you cant restore backups from older versions which means you will hard reset your phone.
Do you have a guide for the cab method?

I got one of the first phones produced, w/ 7720 firmware, 059J3G0 variant:

I flashed it once to latest Czech (8107) firmware and updated to 8107.12070 via CAB. But battery drain is still basically the same as on 7720 - awesome.

That really suggests mine has a fault then. I have never seen it say over 14 hours really. I am just turning things off. Do you have facebook/twitter added in as well?
Was 8107 version 11501 then? I am tempted to flash mine clean when the newest roms come out for UK.
What kind of discharge rates do you get?
I was getting around 130mAh discharge rate on idle, now around 75mAh (with 12070 update). So I guess battery should be even better now, but it was good before as well.
059J3G0 variant was distributed directly by Nokia (got an "influencer" phone).

Influencer aka the ones they know work
Hmm it appears if 3G is on after 20-30 seconds it jumps to 250-350ma even though wifi is on. It can go higher but I put that down to background tasks.
With 3G off it sits normally < 100.
I am tempted to flash mine but I am just trying to figure out how much pain it will be getting back up and running since you cant use backups?
Anyone downgraded before? procedure?
Edit: Even in battery saver mode its running at 267ma which should disable background apps and data stuff but leave the connection active.

Updated yesterday morning and this has not improved my usage with 3G enabled. I spend most of my time in WiFi areas so had got used to leaving the network set to 2G, which looks to be what I'll have to go back to.
I'll try a hard reset for the sake of completion, then do more tests with the 3G on and off.

I also have a lumia(059J3G0) with that number. I can't get Navifirm plus or Nokia Data Package Manager to find firmware. How are you doing an updated to 8107.12070 via CAB??
Thanks for your help.

After 2 days with the newest 12070 fw my battery seems to last for 1day~12 hours. Something i have learned to expect from GS, N9 and iPhone 4.
Before the update 800 lasted for around 20 hours, with heavy use it would have been dead in 12 hours. Update before 12070 did nothing, but this was clearly the update i was waiting for. Finally i can use it like a smartphone as i really do love Metro UI, but the battery life has killed it of for me.
On idle the battery drain is now around 75mAh, compared to previous ~130mAh.
After 2 days with the new firmware: It is better than with 11500 but still not good enough. 12 hours with use, 20 hours with standby ... In idle 253 mA Battery drain.... In Flight Mode 84 mA.
My Provider only has 3G. 3 Austria does not provide a GSM or Edge Signal. So the cause is the 3G Signal ... With Flight mode (around 84mA) the battery life is great!
So let's wait for another Firmware

Hi.

I have :
OS version : 7.10.8773.98
FW : 1750.0805.8773.12220 .
How to solve poor battery life? How to update latest update for LUMIA 800? HELP
Have you synced your Phone in the last time with Zune? it should show you the latest update, sry if i cant say if you have the latest FW but i don't own the 800
if you have no Zune, or its not show any update, then you should watch in your Settings on your Phone, theres a update option
what is your description of "poor" for my Lumia 710 i get 1-3 Days, 3 Days when all data disabled and no use (just SMS and Phone sometimes) and 1 Day with 3G on and Apps running in Background like whatsapp

mhh. Yes, i synced. :/ Zune say's ,that i have latest update.
But i disabled all, and no use. (sometimes play zombie, doodlejump , just sms ,phone,3G maybe use 5min. ) and get maybe 1day. :/ And dont have background tasks :/
and also, i choose brightness low! :/ and battery saver on..
Considering I get twice that battery life doing the tasks you do, I suggest you go to a service to have your battery replaced. It might have a high wear level.
Playing Games is the best way to get your Battery empty ;D i dont know but i think 1 day is for the Smartphone generation today normal :/
Hey guys I was wondering if anyone could please help me with this issue, Every since i updated my note 3 to 5.0 lollipop my battery dies way faster than it did before.

Ihave already used auto brightness and I am currently using an all black background i also have all togglea of such as bluetooth, gps, NFC, wifi, etc. And it still deatroys my battery. Pls help and thank you in advance.

But the problem is i saw nothing on this issue online so im aftaid they wont fix it bacuse they dont know about it
I've seen quite a few post online about poor battery life & other data/Bluetooth issues after updating to emui 10, for both Mate 20 Pro & P30 Pro.
I used the files posted by dog121 (10.0.0.155) but battery life is still great for me as it was on 9.1
I'm sure Huawei will fix the issue with the official (stable) release.

Same problem here, I'm in version 10.0.0.180 but the battery life is still very poor. Disappointing!!!

Mine honestly doesn't have any problem with battery life and i'm on a10 still got 6-7 hours screen on time within 16-20 hours of usage and i'm a really heavy user
No difference noted on battery life since I updated from android 9 to 10 on my Mate 20 Pro...
.
Right for me (mate 20) it was great on version 10.0.0.155 but after the update to 10.0.0.180 battery life is very poor
I'm on A10 with 158 version and have actually observed improvements over version 9.
I am on 180 and battery life sucks. After 3 hours on 60%.
Bought this phone for the exceptional battery life.
Not pleased...
Go to System --> Battery --> Battery Usage to find out what's consuming your power so much. It certainly isn't normal for EMUI 10
For me battery is much better - v. 181
After I updated to .180, my battery is phenomenal. Gained almost 20%, its back to being a 2-day battery phone.
10.0.0.182 - no visible difference.
I will say though that I wiped out the cache partition and it took a few days to calibrate. I did the same as on EMUI 9.1, disable a bunch of system apps, particularly PowerGenie.
Was hoping for better behavior in EMUI 10 but it still stupidly kills apps and notifications...so it's gone.
Which version of firmware was the best in battery life?
Hey guys.
Just for the record I am testing the Xperia 1 iv battery drain in standby.
The phone seems to drain over night by 20% that's alot for juice compared to the Google pixel 6 pro or over phones like the oneplus 10 pro etc.
I have started this discussion to see if anyone else here , having drain issues maybe due to the overheating issue to drain battery down but that's only if the phone is using apps that are demand CPU etc.
I will keep testing this ,my thoughts are, thats alot of battery drain for standby mode.
I think Sony my need to do more future firmware updates to address this issue
mine uses some 5-6 % overnight, generally veeeeery happy with battery life.
Maybe you have something running in the background that is killing it. Something that pings the network all the time. What does batt status tells you?
2nd time charging the device is a little better working out 2 percent per hour at present.
Thanks for the reply

Hi could you please give us your build number ? We have 64.0.A.8.25 in Europe, released the 1st of August, thanks .
in that thread* we 've been said , the 64.0.A.8.25 is only a safety one
* https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/xperia-overheating-problem.4467263/
I am on 64.0.A.5.71 Running a dual SIM mode with a digital SIM. I am also rooted with Magisk 25.2. All my Google apps are removed, so my phone runs without Google support. No Facebook or social media apps, also no games. No battery drain happening. It mainly depends on the apps you have pre-installed. Some apps are capable to use mic, or gps in the background even when they are not active. Any unrooted device is a potential privacy, and security risk, specially when you have facebook and google apps installed.

The august build
I am getting over eight hours sot. Now also a tip is to calibrate the gaming app to battery prefer and then select samina mode on on all your games
Theae settings on you get no overheating issues also if you play retro games or name it's not too demanding on your CPU.
Also I have social media apps installed over 330 apps including games etc and utils.
No need to root the device at all. Thanks guys
There is a new firmware available. 64.0.A.8.25 I am not going to try it, i don't want to root and reinstall my device from scratch. Mine only have 40 apps installed, mostly root related. Nothing allowed to run on the background, except call recorder. All my apps only have internet access if they are in the foreground, except my banking app and skype , icq . The device does overheat when the camera is active for a while, however I only have it about a week.
