I have searched for a good battery for the phone but haven't found any. My phone is still in good condition and operates well. I use it as my secondary device beside oneplus 3. Only problem I face is the battery. It charges very slowly and goes from 70 to 100 in a flash and while discharging I can literally count the percentage dropping. I get around 1 hr sot.
So guys please suggest some workaround. And do suggest which battery I shall use.

Ok so Here's the deal
When I flash a rom I charge the phone till it hits 100%. I then reset the battery stats and go on about my day. With in a few minutes of being off the charger my battery has now dropped down to about 96 %. I do realize that batteries do not stay at 100% but this is crazy. I've only deep cycled my battery once for fear that it may damage my battery.
I Am using Teamwhiskeys ultra awesome bionix-v rom with ttabals oc kernal. I know I am to expect a slightly more rapid drain but this is crazy. I have even tried to lower the vcore and I slowed down the cpu to 800mhz. It still drains just as fast.
The odd thing to me is If i turn my phone off and let it fully charge to 100 percent reset stats then turn on phone It will show full for a minute then drop down to to 96 or 95 percent.
I personally think my battery is damaged but spare parts shows that it is ok.
So i am rather confused by this .
I know I should probably use the stock kernal but it seems like its just as bad with that.
I have looked at the threads about battery life and I am not expecting it to be amazing just hoping it will be ok!
Tell me what ya think !
mt battery play tricks on me too when my phone doesent see that im lookin at it it shows 90 when i look at it and phone notice it bounces to 85 like it hates me , lol but dont take my words for it P
Spare parts would show that too. I remember when I had my G1 spare parts would tell me it was fine. But a 3 hour full battery doesn't seem fine does it? Id suggest getting it replaced.

Ill probably nurse it... but I am having major ocd type problems about it.
I cannot stress this part enough, so I'm putting at the top, do not do the following often, as it can have a negative effect on Li batteries if done too much.
You want to try what is known as a bump charge. With your phone off, charge to 100 percent. You will see the green battery icon with "100" on it once it reaches full. Unplug from the charger for a minute, then plug it back in, phone still off, and let it reach 100 again. If you want you can do this a third time, do keep in mind, bump charging too much or with any type of frequency can have negative effects on your battery, but doing it once in a great great while helps with with what you are experiencing.
thanks Br1cK'd and those who replied.
I have tried the bump charging method. I am affraid that my efforts to repair my battery are causing it more harm than good.
ok i just restored bionix v and had it charge to 100 percent
spare parts says
battery level 100
battery scale 100
battery health good
battery voltage says 4243mv
battery temp 30.0

There is one thing you are messing up. If you flash your phone on a 100% charge then you DO NOT need to wipe battery stats. You only have to wipe battery stats if you flash when your battery is not at 100%!

It's not out of the ordinary for a battery indicator to show a few percent drop rather quickly on a LiIon battery. Secondly you should take a battery indicator with a rather large grain of salt. Expecting precision in single digit percentages from the indicator is unrealistic and nearly impossible to rely on given the nature of discharge of a battery. Batteries do not charge or discharge in a linear manner, and people do not use battery powered devices in a linear way either.
It is a visual guide, not a precise and accurate indicator. Many custom roms have a percent accurate indicator, but don't mistake this with being dead-on accurate. It is merely an attempt to make it a BETTER visual GUIDE.
To evaluate battery life properly is moderately time consuming, though rather obvious. Use your device as you would normally. Pay attention to how long it stays charged. If it's not staying alive for a reasonable amount of time (12-24 hours depending on what you are doing of course), then it's time to dig deeper. Apps that wake up and generate unnecessary Partial Wake usage, a lot of background application syncing or apps with short sync intervals, being in an area with poor data/voice signal....these are the usual culprits.
Apart from situations where people are playing around with experimental kernels (i9000 derived kernels tend to vampirically drain battery a few percent an hour regardless), the things that drain your battery are....things that "use" your phone. The more you do (and the more your phone is doing with your permission while it's in your pocket) the less battery you will have.
In the end it comes down to asking yourself some questions. Do you need to automatically update facebook, myspace, twitter feeds constantly when you can manually update them and be inconvenienced by a 10-20 second wait? Do you really need to update 35 rss feeds in Google Reader?
Most people's power related issues come down to three things.
1). Apps that wake up without your knowledge and waste battery for no good reason (I'm looking at you Media Hub!!)
2).All those other apps and widgets that are updating inside your pocket when your not reading, watching, or caring about them.
3). Being in an area with poor data/voice signal, forcing your phone to "hunt" excessively for a better connection.
Apps that wake up and do god knows what without your knowledge can either be removed, disabled, or frozen. Examining partial wake usage can give you insight into what may be going on in that scenario. Apps can be "Frozen" with Titanium Backup Pro (paid) or App Freezer (free).
The other part that is within your control are all the apps/widgets you actively use, and your decisions about how often (or even if) they update themselves.
Has anyone use the battery test in the system test? *#*#7378423#*#*? My battery not very good so I want to test it out but has been running for the last 4-5 hrs still not finish yet.
I think this will run until the battery is completely empty, so you have a few hours to go
Battery
I read on Gsmarena that the battery of sony xperia s is 1750mah but i really get shocked when i checked the battery it shows just 1500mah. What is this? Is there any problem with my phone or the info on Gsmarena is fake
use at least 5-6 hours in one day
I think it's the software. Battery test showing 1500mA but battery health test showing 1700mA.
By the way no improve and took 8 hrs to complete and only drain battery to 70% and indicated reduce capacity????
Hello, i have some bad battery issues, my battery just disappears. According to 3C battery monitor the battery has capacity around 29~~ mAh. I have installed build 23.5.A.1.291. It wasn't so bad until i bought new smartwatch and i kept the bluetooth on during my time in school. I remember that i had even three days of battery on the KitKat 4.4.4, but now i have to charge every 10-12 hours. Also, i found someone who has same issue on Z3. Today i did factory res. and after using it had 97% i put it into sleep and didn't use it, after few hours it has around 85-83%.
It is soft charging function, it will charge your phone but not full capacity. This function will increase battery lifespan but reduce usage time
BTW, try charge your phone many times after installed new ROM, then it will stable
If not, maybe your battery has problem
I am thinking about changing the battery because AccuBattery has shown me that it has 2562 mAh, even if i heard that this app is not accurate. Also, i am thinking if its worth to pay 40 euro for battery change or buy a new phone like Xperia X or Google Pixel.
Hlw Guys, I am facing battery drain issue in my poco f1 for 4-5 days.....its draining like a hell. after full charged its draining 25% in just 30 mins of normal browsing.....its very bad... Yesterday night I full charged it go to bed.... after 6HR of not using phone its drained to 100 to 30%......Its really bad please if u have any solution then please tell me. And also explain me why its happening.... should I have to change my battery or something else can be done without doing this. ):
seems like you need to replace battery..
Check battery health in Accubattery. 15-20 sessions for a reliable estimate in case of partial charging sessions and less in case of near complete ones. If rooted the battery capacity can be checked from the built-in kernel profile.
Hi guys , I have bought this phone for about a week, the problem is that when the battery percentage is 14 to 11, it drains within 30 seconds and then the consumption is normal, I sent it to the dealer for that. They installed the latest version of miui. This was useless and the problem is still there, does anyone have this problem? Or if there is a solution for it, I also did the calibration.
I dont really understand what you are saying, i usually charge my phone whenever it is at 20% or something but there have been instances where it dropped to 5% too but I never noticed it specifically from 14 to 11
I have been using it for about a year now, so far things are good at my end and in general i am satisfied with battery life and charging speeds.
If your phone charges up fast, and overall battery performance is good with 5-6 hours SOT until you reach 20% i think it's good
I have the exact same issue on my Poco X3 GT. When the battery reaches 14% it drops very fast to 11% and then everything goes normal again.
