There are a few things you can do that will help your battery life and performance...
Performance
· Do some graphical tweaks...
1. Install Spare parts
2. Set Window animations > Fast
3. Set Transition animations > Fast
4. Set Wifi sleep policy > Never While Plugged
· Adjust the Android memory management...
1. Install Autokiller
2. Menu > Presets
3. Most people have best results with 'Moderate' but you could also try 'Optimum'
4. Menu > Settings > tick 'Apply settings on boot'
Battery
· Wipe your battery stats...
1. Allow the phone to discharge completely
2. Boot into recovery (hold Home and press On) plug the phone in if you don't have enough charge to get into recovery
3. Select Wipe > Wipe battery stats
4. Go back and Reboot
5. Leave the phone to do a complete charge (preferably over night)
· Adjust your radio settings...
1. Go to Settings > About phone > System updates > Update PRL (it's normal that the phone process will force close at this point and the radio will reboot)
2. Go to your dialer
3. Dial *#*#INFO#*#*
4. Click 'Phone information'
5. Scroll down to the first dropdown selection and set according to your preference below...
· WCDMA preferred (default) - This will automatically switch you between G/E/3G/H depending on the best signal available by constantly monitoring all signals. This uses the most battery.
· WCDMA Only - If you only want to use 3G/H (3G) and do not want to use G/E (2G) select this.
· GSM auto (PRL) - This is the preferred option as it will allow you to use G/E/3G/H but uses the PRL list on your phone (provided by your carrier in the PRL update) rather than constantly monitoring all frequencies thus saving your battery. This may not work with all carriers if you have difficulty getting mobile data in some areas you will have to use one of the other options.
· GSM only - If you only use G/E (2G) select this (it's the same as selecting '2G only' through the settings menu). This option uses the least battery.
Upon making your selection the radio will reboot and the setting is saved, so just back out back to the dialer and you are done.
(edit your /system/build.prop with a file manager with root access)

>Reduce screen brightness
>Reduce the Screen Timeout
>Keep a Black wallpaper or a dark theme
>Restart the phone once a day
>Switch off GPS, bluetooth, WIFI
>Uninstall unused apps
>Change Refresh Intervals
>Change your charging pattern
>Playing videos
>Stop staring at your phone
>don't sync accounts which you don't really use: twitter & LinkedIn contacts, active exchange calendar and tasks etc.
>Use throttling software such as SetCPU to lower the devices power requirements when it is idle.
>Remove any weather widget from home screens (or atleast reduce the frequency of update)
Don't use any Taskiller
And dont look at Battery level again and again, it will drain battery faster.
What is the different between task killer vs autokiller? Thanks for your advices
We use task killers to manually kill apps and auto killer kills the task by themselves on precondition basis.
But dont use any taskkillers cos android works exact opposit than windows do. Windows need free ram to run effectly whereas android use ram as cache, more its filled more effectively android will run.
Press thanks if i helped.

Your battery facts need a little refreshing.
1.Wipe your battery stats
Today's myth debunking:
"The battery indicator in the status/notification bar is a reflection of the batterystats.bin file in the data/system/ directory."
No, it does not.
This file is used to maintain, across reboots, low-level data about the kinds of operations the device and your apps are doing between battery changes. That is, it is solely used to compute the blame for battery usage shown in the "Battery Use" UI in settings.
That is, it has deeply significant things like "app X held a wake lock for 2 minutes" and "the screen was on at 60% brightness for 10 minutes."
It has no impact on the current battery level shown to you.
It has no impact on your battery life.
Deleting it is not going to do anything to make your more device more fantastic and wonderful... well, unless you have some deep hatred for seeing anything shown in the battery usage UI. And anyway, it is reset every time you unplug from power with a relatively full charge (thus why the battery usage UI data resets at that point), so this would be a much easier way to make it go away.

2.Allow you phone to discharge completely.
Tip #2: Avoid allowing your device to discharge completely
Every wondered why your modern phone, PDA or iPod is able to cheerfully tell you that “Your battery is now exhausted” for several seconds on its brightly-lid LCD screen before switching off? The reason is simple; there is an artificial circuit that shuts off the device when the charge in the battery is too low.
This extraneous circuit is built to protect from the damage that could result if the charge of your lithium ion battery falls too low. If you still don’t get it: if the charge of your lithium ion battery falls too low, the battery can get irreversibly and permanently damaged. So since Lithium Ion has no “memory effect”, it is better to simply charge your portable device as and when you can or remember.
To set your mind at ease, a “charge cycle” means a single iteration of depleting followed by a re-charge until 100% of battery charge. If you consume 50% of your iPod’s battery on day 1, recharge to 100% at night, and do the same thing on day 2, then you would have just finished up one charge cycle of its battery life.

Hi Guys,
I am using xperia sola from last twenty days.....:good: but the battery performance is very bad:crying: when i checked my battery usage, analysis came out that more than 50% of battery is getting used by display....so to cut down that i have started using picture wallpaper instead of live wallpaper but to my surprise i came to know that Live wallpaper is running in the background which is still consuming my battery.
Battery is lasting for less than 24 hours.
help me to resolve particular issue.

either the apps running behind the background or the 3G
is the no.1 battery killer
use advanced task killer to kill task or disable those autorun apps

Task killer won't help, those tasks will come back and make it even worst for the juice they use for initation.
Disable data, or use 2G only (turn 3G back on when you really nead it). Or you can search in this forum the way to do it automatically .
For the live wallpaper issue, just uninstall it
Bright
You should try reducing the bright, Hight bright eats all the phone battery...

just choose a static background, reduse screen brightness and usage. Today's smartphones need juice. Consider buying a spare battery

Screen brightness is going to be your number one killer. Also, if you're using WiFi/3G/4G all day long that will kill your battery too. Finally, if you're playing games that use a bunch of graphics that utilize your phone's hardware (openGL, unreal engine, etc.) it will drain your battery pretty fast.
I have seen an article somewhere saying that live wallpapers don't actually consume as much battery as people make them out to be, and i found this to be true, i got 5 days out of my Optimus 2X (no sim card inside) and it had a live wallpaper, what consumes the most battery is the screen itself (reduce brightness to get better battery life while using the phone) and data on 3G (i always turn off data when i don't use it) and i normaly get 2 days out of my Optimus 2X (1 day of heavy usage).
Thank you for the info whoever provided here.

Try or start with this app above and hunt for apps that syncing/updating in the background and basically you need to make a dumb phone out of your smartphone. Disable all autosyncs/notifications in the setting and apps like Facebook disable notifications. Open up Google play>settings and uncheck all default checked settings. Disable gmail/email notifications. Disable auto backup/restore. Disable all location services/vibrations/sounds when typing/wifi or GPS or BT when not in use. Disable data or stick with 2g in standby mode. Find a custom ROM that usually will be much better with battery management.
That's in a nutshell of how I can basically keep my phone draining 1% per hour on standby mode.

Free available n the paid one is awesome... I am not saying saying will get 100% increase but 30~40% INCREASE is observed by me and well something is better than nothing... M using the paid version bt the free one is equally good.. Oh yeah one thing.. Download.. Thn customise.. N forget it because its fully automatic...

I highly recommend GO Power Master: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gau.go.launcherex.gowidget.gopowermaster
It lets you customize power profiles and set "sleep" cycles so that it uses minimal power when you're not using it anyway (I set mine to just be phone/text from 11pm until 7am).
It also has a "smart kill" button on the widget (which you don't have to use) that will prolong battery life by killing apps that are doing nothing. I know there's a lot of argument about app/task killers out there, but it's always worked well for me.
Adjust screen brightness to 0 (dim)
use dark wallpaper
disable gps, bluetooth , wifi when not in use and also air plane mode during night time
and also clear running apps with task manager:good:
Also you could try GSam Battery Monitor Pro, it will show you which process are using %'s of power
Try this one

First, excuse me for my bad english. I'll try to said something and I expect would not to be an offense to you . . . It would to be easy to turn of the phone . . . no?
Of course I have to do something of this things, but If it's necessary to do all of them . . . it would be better to don't have a smartphone . . .

Juice Defender functions only if you have you phone a lot of time inactive . . . It functions turning of your conections in inactivity period and olnly turns it on in few intervals depending of your profile . . . It's very good, but if you want your cell phone conected every time . . . this is not a solution . . .

You are using stock firmware or custom?
If you face problem with battery.. draining like hell..
then these tips are for you....
1. Battery Calibration
2. Control Apps
3. Device Setting
1. Battery Calibration
Don't use any application..
Just charge your battery till 100%.. Restart your phone
without remove charger..Important
after restart (battery show 60 to 98%. leave it on charge again till 100% + 2 hrs. more
Then remove from charger & use phone until battery drain to 0% and switch-off itself
Don't recharge between 100 to 0%.. then try to restart at least 3 time.. to sure drain battery completely
now connect your phone to charger.. after 10 minutes start your phone.
but don't remove your charger till battery goes 100%...Important
(sometime it take more than 4-5 hrs. so better in night) When battery goes 100% ...now you done Calibration..
Technically..
on every restart Android reset Battery (by wipe battery status)
So.. on 100% Android make Maximum level - on 0% minimum level
P.S. Do this calibration on every ROM flash or at-least one time a month..
2. Control Apps
Some Application consume battery do much..
i.e. Facebook, Youtube, Maps, Whatsapp, Viber, Yahoo! Mail / Messenger, Skype, Hotmail.com, etc.
so when you don't use these apps (running in background) kill them .
Better use Browser Bookmark instead applications
i.e. Facebook, YouTube, Yahoo! Mail, Yahoo Messenger, Outlook,
It help to save your RAM also..
3. Device Setting
lowest brightness..
lowest screen timeout
Close WiFi if no need
Close Data Conn. if no need.
Close Bluetooth if no need.
Close GPS if no need.
try to use dark backgrounds..
Try these tips then tell me how your battery work
Sorry for horrible & terrible English

Just one comment on your procudure.
The text as you wrote:

Io-li batteries cannot be fully discharged. POwering up mobile at 0% (withou charger pluged in) just to exaust battery can lead to a permanent battery damage or shortage in its life.
The rest of the procudure may help (or not),
Battery says its about on 6% juice and the phones turn off (first of all that should not be hapening). However bigger problem is that after it turns off, i turn it again and battery jumps to ~32 procentage. So pretty much I have to do it every time. WTF is that ? I heared a lot of users have this problem. so hardware or software issue ?
also battery gets stuck on 100% after charge. maybe gdr3 will fix it ?
Battery was ok for few days, but this night after charge battery overnight went from 100% to 77% (in about 7 hours) in stand by mode. Obviously thats not right so I did a restart and battery back up to 100%. Seriously wtf is that?
Every time after a charge I have to restart a phone to have a good battery life. How to fix it ?
is possible firmware release in your phone have bug... same model of Lumia dont have same firmwares... almost every operator or region release have different firmware...
also for battery saving use these tips:
turn off unnecessary background tasks (in settings - applications - background tasks)
limit number of Live tiles on start screen which uses internet
use simple picture for lock screen (dont use live lock screens)
dont use battery status applications (uninstall it completely)
dont use or limit some option for Glance screen
turn off or increase mail checking time

Are you running WAZE during your phone charging?
WAZE will drain battery so fast that isn't possible to charge simultaneously.
If in charge mode WAZE can damage your battery.

No waze. Pretty much a stock phone.
Hey Folks,
I am using Stock with manually removed Bloatware. Root and Xposed are installed. My problem is the high current consumption of my Z5c. I get an average idle consumption between 200-450 ma. On my Z3c the consumption is between 50-150ma in idle state.
I tried several kernel. Stock kernel and androplus v20 - v27, in all kernel i get the same high comsumpition with interactive as governor. Brightness at the lowest and WIFI/DATA off. I use Amplify and in WLD i dont see any Problems. I dont use Facebook, only Whatsapp and GMail. Is somebody have the same problem?
Do you get same values?
Sry for my bad english
You should also check what apps are using CPU power. I had a somehow similar problem and found that some apps were pretty hungry.
I checked it already with a process monitor and the biggest cpu user is always system ui. In the battery usage stats of android, the highest usage come from display and android system.
I reflashed the .163 tft three days ago to start with a fresh installation, but the high consumption has remained.
Then maybe there's a setting that you are always making after flashing the system... Live wallpaper?
I have no other idea at the moment...
No live wallpaper or sth like that. Do anybody know the average ma consumption of Z5c?
Or is it the 810?

No live wallpaper or sth like that. Do anybody know the average ma consumption of Z5c?

It's some of the system components or pre-shipped apps,
CM13 e.g. is able to achieve 1% per 4-8 hours or even less in idle (Airplane mode), but Stock ROM seemingly always keeps something in the phone busy,
my current suspicion is the fingerprint scanner, adaptive brightness, tap2wake, etc. - so system-side is keeping kernel-side awake, but wakelock detectors hardly show any wakelocks when most is blocked (e.g. via Amplify)
all of those work without hardly increasing battery consumption in AOSP and CM13;
so the only things left are apps and system services - or proprietary "****" that is hidden behind app-name, services and others
the Snapdragon 810 is a kind of hothead, it consumes quite a lot energy under close to full load but that doesn't explain the idle drain ...
Mine is regularly around 350 give or take a few, that might explain why I only get 4 hours of battery life ?
my widget pro(same app) says -12ma worst case while screen locked
maybe something running at the background
this phone got lot of problems
but battery is the only thing is pretty okay even without stamina
on average usage its about 2 days for me (heavy 1day)
only calls and sms (with data and wifi off even 4-10 days) android 6.0( build.185)
if the battery was li-poly it was abit better
i could solve the problem. It was the xposed module "flat style colored bars" in the current version ( from 2 May 2016; Version 2.1.0), which caused this high idle current consumption. I deinstalled also the latest "goolge play services" update. It was hard to find the guilty.
Now it is back to 100-150ma in idle state. This Thread can be closed.
Thank you for all your help.

How did you narrow it down to that app? I don't have that module installed but use xstana. That could be my problem.
First i listed the running cpu process per adb shell (root, with command top). The Sony Photo Analyzer used up to 20% of the cpu every time, so i removed it. After that, the System UI used the most of the cpu all time. I disabled all xposed modules for testing and voila the consumption was back at 100ma. So i go through the list and enabled the modules one by one and restarted it.
I am using XStana in the latest version, so it could be not the problem in your Phone.
My List of Xposed Modules:
Amplify, AppOpsXposed, Battery Home Icon, Blurred System UI (LP), BootManager, Flat Style Colored Bars (Version 2.0.1), GravityBOX (MM), Navbar music Visualizer, Prevent Running, XLED, XStana, XUIMod, YoutubeAdAway, Youtube Background Playback
So you see, i am using lot of modules, but the perfomance and battery consumption is as normal.
Hope i could help you with this information. It was very time-consuming to find the problem. You should also checkout google play services, revert back for testing to the last version if you dont find any other problem.
