Worst battery life!!! - Micromax A116

I have tried several ROMS, MIUI, stock 4.1, 4.2, Samsung and xperia mods.
None of the ROM provides better battery life, which mean there is some problem with the kernel and Mediatek libraries.
Usually phone is @ 60 % before i go to sleep and in approx 8 hours battery drains to 30, Data, GPS, Sync are switched off, no apps running, there is a continuous 4-7% drop in battery percentage.
Worse is when i play ingress on my phone battery drops by 40% / h, i have an app BatteryDrain which tells the approx hourly drain.
Are you all facing similar issue. can you guys please share the screen shot of battery drain.

Okay.... I will give u the solutions in increasing order of intensity..
1)check auto brightness off
2) go to settings and check battery statistics.... Force stop / Uninstaller any app if it consumes to much battery
5)go to developer settings and click on don't keep activities.. Also delete battery stats in Cwm recovery ( not responsible for Wierd stuff which might happen)
4) install greenify , and hibernate apps....
6) install juice defender ( my battery life is doubled )
7) flash pure performance(look in general section) remember to backup. ( not responsible for damage)
7) take the backup of ur rom and reflash stock 4.2.1 ( not responsible for damage)
8) it might be something wrong with ur battery... So go buy another genuine CHD battery or steal it from ur friend
9) Go to service centre and show them how bad the device battery is.... If u have Warrenty ur in luck

Yes I have the same issue what do u have Now, as soon as my battery reaches to 30% my phone gets switched off,
I have tried all ROM but having same issue,
I have flashed Stock 4.2.1 ROM of My phone 919 but same issue,
So what I did I have just replaced my battery with one my friend who is having same Canvas CHD phone, Now I don't have any Battery issue.
And strange thing is My OLD battery is working very good on my friends Mobile,
So he is also not having any battery issue
He is on SamHD and I am on Stock 4.2.1 ROM
So my advice is,
Just try to use On stock ROM for few days you will back to Good Battery Life

You should flash pure perfomance and also try pimp my rom both of them are available in the general selection(remember to take backup). These tweaks will increase your device's perfomance and also increase the battery life.. It helped in my case

Thank you for replying, for now I have installed juice defender and greenify, will share the results.

Thank you have installed greenify and Juice defender, later will try pure performance and last option would be to buy new battery.
Cant i buy battery from different manufacturer instead of Micromax? Like ERD, MAXX.

Yup... Do share the results.....
And as far as the battery is concerned.... Go for a genuine mmx battery.....But I won't go as far as to forbid u buying other company stuff.......

I have one better option. instead of buying new battery u should go for battery banks. I just bought nokia battery bank worth 1150 bucks and the benifit is it is not phone specific and will charge battery quickly as it has more mah than normal charger.

I note that you have tried several ROMs. but have you ever tried calibrating your battery at least once after flashing any of those things?!. If not I suggest you calibrate your battery properly and then give your comments.

EDIT: btw, don't use that pure performance mod. it causes issues. you won't need it anyway.

But with this rom I dont see any wifi or IMEI problems even the overall battery is Good.. Only problem I see is it drops from say 30 to 10 in seconds.. that rapid drop seems to be the issue for me.
Dude.. The same problem.. Battery drains from thirty to ten in twenty minutes...

Hii
I m facing the same issue. After Upgrade to 4.2.1
Battery started giving dokha. Once reach 30% it drops to 10.
I m looking for the solution too.
May be battery calibration will be a solution but for that it asks for root access
Which I don't want what to do.?
Hey...this issue is there with 4.2.1 stock rom...not everyone must have noticed it though...but it does not effect the usability of the phone...though i agree its irritating...try to flash a custom rom & see if this issue exists for u...for me that worked...whatever works for u...battery calibration didnt help though
Possible fix for battery drain(30%-10%) rooted device.
Hey guys i used to have the same issue before, calibrating didnt work at first, flashing custom roms didnt do the trick either so in the end i finally snapped n tried calibrating the battery the other way round. I calibrated my battery when it reached a sufficiently low charge(did mine at 7%). I used rom toolbox(device must be rooted) which can be found in the play store, ull find the option in rom management > wipe options(DO NOT tick any other options other than wipe battery stats). Other battery calibration apps might work but it didnt for me. after wiping battery stats it will ask u to reboot. Reboot the device and let it charge to 100%. Then check if the drain is gone:good:!
hope this helps you guys!
Use at own risk. I will not be held responsible.
even im facing the same problem.Also after 87% of charging it jumps directly to 100% in 2 minutes.I have replaced the battery but still same issue.Service center repairers said that its motherboard problem but i dont think so.If I charge only till 85%, I dont face drain problem after 30% till 10%.but if i charge it till 100% den my battery drains in 2 minutes from 30% to12%
Ya dude . And the same is happening here too.....

Battery Drain Issue - RESOLVE
I was having hell lot of Problem with Battery backup (using SamHD V3.2), tried using Calibration but didnt work.
Then I after searching/surfing the Internet, used a custom Method as mention below :
1. Charge your Phone to 100%
2. Download "ROM TOOLBOX Lite" from Play Store.
3. Go to ROM Management -- Wipe Option -- Click Wipe Battery Stats (DO NOT tick any other options other than wipe battery stats)
4. It will ask for Reboot, do it.
5. Then charge the phone to 100%
6. Calibrate the phone using Battery Calibration & then start using the phone.
Phew!!! it works now, I was mad behind this problem and now my life is kool...
Note : If this doesn't work then instead of point no. 1, please do the Point No. 2 at 5% or 10% battery status
PRESS THANKS, If I HELP YOU

Strange Battery Issue

I have Micromax Canvas hd purchased 1 month ago.I m facing a serious trouble which service center also cant solve(as i have tred visiting it).When I charge my mobile to100% and when it reaches to 30%,my battery drains too quick till 12% without having any apps open.After 12% I tried charging till 35% but it drains normal till 0%.I have updated android from service center,changed battery also.They say that motherboard needs to be replaced(they havnt understood the problem yet properly).Is it firmware problem?
in which some files are corrupted due to which it is showing wrong battery stats.Beacuse I get normal battery life.I can use it for 1 day after normal usage.
After 87% of charging it jumps to 100% in 2 minutes.But if i charge only till 87% then i dont face drain problem from 30% to 12%.
Is this a motherboard issue?
Exact problem with my device too.... Please some experts suggest solutions on this.. Battery calibration dies not work...

Try a battery calibration it should work if not then try installing a custom ROM this will definitely solve your problem but in case you don't want a custom Rom try installing Pure performance and if you don't want to try even this one then try downloading a battery indicator app which will show correct readings. Generally this is just a problem with the software you'll get the complete 100% output but only the numbers out there are different. so it should not be a big problem.
Hit thanks if i've helped.

i hav tried battery calibration through various apps e1 manually deleting batterystatsbin file but none helped.Installed stock rom 4.1.2(v0.16)coz many people dont have problm with it(i knw personally 2-3 people) still none working 4 me.I will try custom rom but what is "pure perfomance" i wana try it b4 installing new rom.
Hey it happens to me as well. Battery calibration I am yet to try. The real reason I wanted to reply here is I have had a bad experience with Pure Performance MOD. Its just a zip file flashable through CWM. What it does is it makes ur phone faster than ever, however battery drains equally as fast. Before you try it, I really really really really suggest a backup through CWM.

Sir but it means you're facing few problems which many don't , yes few of them complain of such problems but there are also many who've experienced dramatic increase in battery backup.
Source: My personal experience
Before i installed this ROM, For example in night by 10.00 pm if the battery % was around 70 by morning it would be around 64-63 but now it is 69 or max 68 and i also see changes in benchmark tests etc etc.
I recommend you reflashing the Rom and would recommend it to others.
---------- Post added at 08:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:20 PM ----------
Pure performance is a Rom developed to increase the overall response of your device.It also boost battery backup etc etc Search about it in XDA.
I also having the same issue...
1st when it happens drain battery to 0%
Then charge it to 100% plus some more time....
It works perfectly till again 0%....
At least it works for me nd my friend....

@G. Ashwin Kumar
I don't really bother about benchmark scores. As far as system response time being faster using PPX, I go for an alternative.
Settings-> Developer options-> Lower the window and transition animation scale to .5x [Currently running X flare v2]
This is why it did not work out for me bro...

WTF??i have tried it many a times..Can u provide step by step instructions bro??btw which app?
I have had a similar issue with my o3d which seems more like a hardware problem because a re-flash seems to do nothing to help the issue nor does battery calibration. I am stuck at an almost constant 0% though so my issue may be different i do have a thread in the o3d forum about this. (although i do recommend calibattery app if stuck for a battery gauge even though it is not completely accurate but better than nothing). If under warranty i would just try to get a replacement.

last time i rooted my phone there was not a asingle problem
now battery 1% die in every 5 seconds
i tried battery calibiration
used wakelock to find apps then greenify them still hardly 40 min till my 100% goes to 0% and its new phone and battery was working well before rooting
last time root had no rpooblems
this time i installed SQlite installer for root guess thats reason but i cant delete its really imp app for me
Battery stuck on 14% a long time.
@Rohit.
What I did:
1. Download "Battery calibration" from playstore. (Developer- Nema)
2. Drained battery till 1%..
3. Charged the phone to a 100%. [Received 2 calls for approx 10 mins in total, for which I had to unplug the charger.]
4. Once battery was 100% I FIRST UNPLUGGED the charger and then clicked Battery Calibration.
The last step here is not what the app suggests in the instructions, I only realized it after I clicked Battery Calibration.
I hope this works for you too brother.

[Q] Serious battery drain and weird behavoir (Neatrom)

Hello, xda.
[i9100, Team Win Recovery Project v2.7.0.0, any recommendations for different kernel? and what show i do in order to change kernel?]
using a great guide, I installed neatrom AOSP 4.4.2 in my galaxy s2,
everything is great and seem very stable, BUT:
the battery drains really fast. also sometimes when rebooting i loose about 40%.
once the battery wasnt charged and after rebooting (and loosing 40%)
the battery raised from 22% to 23%.
while charging in my car today and using waze, the batter dropped... (WHILE CHARGING..)
the battery is really old (1.5YR) but its not the problem, the phone looses a lot of battery while idle.
any help?
(I wanted to buy BBS but its simple for me to buy online right now during credit card issues..)
Thanks in advnace!
:good:
EDIT:
Please tell me there is a way to change my username xD
Aosp roms use battery like is nothing. Get BBS for battery stats and what's draining you're battery so quick. Sudden battery level drop means bad battery. Will need replacing soon. Ask a mod to change names. Most will help you with this. :thumbup:
You definately have the right idea. There is a free version of BBS here on xda. Just search BBS thread. And don't forget to enable root feature in settings...

all Kitkat roms have a battery drain ..
so if u want the best battery life u should go back to 4.1.2 .. like WizzedKat Rom or any stock rom..
and use Apollo Kernel
if u want to go back from kitkat to 4.1.2 u should flash PhilZ Recovery and full wipe )
I will soon upload my bbs logs, I made a test and the phone consumed much less battery when the sim card wasnt inside.
is there anyway to cancel all background apps or to reduce cellular data usage for apps?
perhaps use greenify to freeze apps......
or dont sync ur apps too often....

Battery Life Woes!! Please Help

My CHD'S battery backup has deteriorated very much in. I have a 9 month old rooted CHD, and I have tried all the following things to improve battery backup, but nothing Is working
Tried several roms, like Samflare, X-Flare, Jelly Xperia, currently using SLD ROM BY Cmahendra,
Tried Battery calibration, that didn't work
What happens is, the phone charges till 50 to 60 percent normally and then automatically jumps to 100 percent, then the phone lasts only for 3 to 3.5 hours before dying, I even tried Pure Performance and Kash Kernels, they didn't help either.
Please someone help me as soon as possible.

charge your battery over night,
and flash 4.2 Stock CHD rom
if same pro. persists again then it will be a battery pro. i think....

@pankajpadra Thanks for recommending but his problem is battery itself. May be he still did not realize it after trying all , almost all, roms.

I guess the problem is with the battery itself...my battery used to do same...jump from 60-100 while charging...so I replaced it...and its solved now..

[Q] Sudden drain in battery...need help

I brought Micromax Canvas HD A116 by last august. The phone is not rooted. For first few month it was ok it gave atleast like 8-9 hrs of battery backup...but recently it has been causing lots of issues..it gets sudden drop in battery like from 70% to 20 or 30% then rapidly goes down to 10% holds for couple of hours and then dies out.
I am normal user(less phone calls, average internet usage, average gaming) and it suprises me when I am not using also battery drops like this and it lasts for 6-8 hrs backup only. I don't use heavy games because of this. If I don't do anything then the backup will be upto 9 hrs but it certainly defeats my purpose of having a mobile if I am not even going to use it for phone calls:crying: I also use less number of apps only and they are not power hungry apps...just normal apps.
And also one weird thing I noticed is that whenever I charge it will charge upto 60% and after 1 or 2 minutes it will steeply rise to 100% which is like battery is doing some magic....you can check screenshots I have shared.
And the next weird thin I noticed is that my "phone idle" and "cell standby" percent are always high like beyond 45% always....I donno why... I have compared the reception and also other friends phones where they have only like both stats are around 5-10% only.
Now I really donno what to do with this situation.
Should I go for new OEM battery? Can any one suggest where I can find one online or offline(I am in chennai)?
Should I root my phone? Will it solve my problem?
Should I reset my phone? Can some one suggest best backup and reset solution if you are suggesting this...
Or should go for some other Phone itself(I have moto E in my mind, cuz within one year I don't wish to go for high budget... Now I feel is a bad option for me to have chosen this mobile)
I appreciate any help any one can provide me for this issues....Am REALLY REALLY grateful to you....thanks in advance resolvers.
Edit:
And my OS is Jelly Bean 4.1.2
Do I need to update my OS to sort out my situation? Will it help? If so can some one let me know how to install KitKat for MMX Canvas HD A116?

I am normal user(less phone calls, average internet usage, average gaming) and it suprises me when I am not using also battery drops like this and it lasts for 6-8 hrs backup only. I don't use heavy games because of this. If I don't do anything then the backup will be upto 9 hrs but it certainly defeats my purpose of having a mobile if I am not even going to use it for phone calls:crying: I also use less number of apps only and they are not power hungry apps...just normal apps.
And also one weird thing I noticed is that whenever I charge it will charge upto 60% and after 1 or 2 minutes it will steeply rise to 100% which is like battery is doing some magic....you can check screenshots I have shared.
And the next weird thin I noticed is that my "phone idle" and "cell standby" percent are always high like beyond 45% always....I donno why... I have compared the reception and also other friends phones where they have only like both stats are around 5-10% only.
Now I really donno what to do with this situation.
Should I go for new OEM battery? Can any one suggest where I can find one online or offline(I am in chennai)?
Should I root my phone? Will it solve my problem?
Should I reset my phone? Can some one suggest best backup and reset solution if you are suggesting this...
Or should go for some other Phone itself(I have moto E in my mind, cuz within one year I don't wish to go for high budget... Now I feel is a bad option for me to have chosen this mobile)
I appreciate any help any one can provide me for this issues....Am REALLY REALLY grateful to you....thanks in advance resolvers.
Edit:
And my OS is Jelly Bean 4.1.2
Do I need to update my OS to sort out my situation? Will it help? If so can some one let me know how to install KitKat for MMX Canvas HD A116?

It's coz ur battery s worn out just change it
G kit kat is not available 4 our device so u can't upgrade it
It's better u go to service center Nd order an original battery
But if u want go 4 cheaper stuffs ur local markets do help

Basically mate, Micromax a116 is the worst smartphone in my dictionary. My battery drops down out of thin air, bluetooth doesn't connect, wifi is history, fm is extinct, etc, etc.. i just want to throw this piece of good for nothing in the water... (gosh i wish i could!).
anyways mate, the problem is with the battery that the OEM provided you with, buy another battery, your problem will be solved- for a few months-. I bet once 2 or three months are over the new batter is going to do the same drama. Buusha Micromax, and yea i almost forgot, my camera's flash died too.. R.I.P.
P.S. My canvas is just over 1 years and 1 months.
Try that !

I've had same problem and was lucky to solve !!
I always root my new phones and i recommend that you do the same because it gives you awesome privileges and tweaks !
Now coming to your problem. Some of your apps are using phone processor so dramatically or your battery files are corrupted. Root your phone if you can and try battery calibration (search battery calibrator in playstore for that) do the calibration switch your phone off then let it full charge. That's fine and will solve your problem as i guess. then after install "DS battery saver" (I've tried too many and this is longest running till now).
That's all check your battery performance again and if the same persists then change battery!
PS. Always full charge your battery then let it drain to 20% and then full charge (Battery life cycle that will enhance your battery life)

Dude. You may have a faulty piece. My whole family uses Canvas HD A116. We all have used it over 14 months. Till now no issue regarding anything. So just because you may have got a defective piece there is no need to defame Micromax. For all you know you spoilt it
