So last night after a long dilemma i updated my Z5c from MM to Nougat and today the battery was just horrible.I updated at 95% and after the update i had 75%.With around 2hours screenon time i went under 15% ,light usage.
Is this because the phone has to adapt and the update was so recently done, or nougat battery management it's just this bad compared to MM?on MM i was able to get 6-8 hours screen-on time with a charge.
What should i do?
A:Roll back to MM.
B:Wait for the phone to adapt to the new software.
C:Try to do a repair with PC companion?
Sorry if i asked anything stupid ,i recently got this phone and im still a newbee about it.
Thanks
I have the same issue
Do get you some help, we would need more infos.
Like, Did you root it?
Which version is installed?
Dirty update or clean install?
Battery is fine with mine. 8 hours idle and just 3% drain
Could you check the battery with AccuBattery . I bought a phone in late October 2015. I'm charging it every day. Until now it musit have been around 530 charge cycles. AccuBattery says that current capacity of the device is around 2009 mAh. I also checked the capacity of the battery with this Voltage Current Detector Power Tester. When charging the device from 1% to 100% it measured 1800mAh. Almost the same number gave me the AccuBattery for that specific charge. I have a feeling that after the last update, the phone last less (I did master reset). A friend of mine, who bought the phone a year ago says it's Z5c last longer after last update. AccuBatery also shows that his capacity is around 2700 mAh. I'm thinking to send my phone to repair but I doubt I would have any success.
Try AndroPlus kernel. It solved my problem

This morning went into battery saver to see the estimate of battery life when I unplug and noticed that the phone stopped charging at 96%. It was charging the whole night. Unplugged. Waited. Plugged it in again but it sat there at 96% and not charging any further.
I noticed the same after updating to latest firmware yesterday (11500). Though I still get more charge than before the update. But the last 4% wont charge for some reason although the battery indicator shows as full when the phone says its fully charged.
Probably not an issue, Samsung often do it on purpose.
I don't believe it's an issue either. At least I do not worry about it. It's just a number that doesn't impact the phones functionality.
I´m spanish, just in case you want to answer to me in castellano . I also had the same issue. When i charged it the second time, it reached 100 %, but full charge capacity lowered to 1380 mAh.
In that ocassion the battery was depleted in 11 hours with a high discharging rate. Strange thing is that today when I charged it for the third time discharge rate is low again, something around 120 mAh and the battery´s life expectancy is back again to normal (27 hours or so).
Anyway, the full capacity is still around 1380 mAh. I say around because the number changes by the day.
Saludos.
Yes, running 11500 and only noticed it today. The other day when I actually checked battery saver in the morning it was at 100% and 1 day 3 hours remaining with 1517 mAh full capacity ... today, as I mentioned, 96% and just 23 hours remaining at 1470 mAh full capacity. It appears that there is still something screwy with the battery. The phone does last longer than before however.
Had similar issues with HTC Desire back in the days when it wouldn't charge to 100% required full discharge or battery recalibration.
Now mine charges up to 100%. It was just the first charge after update that went up to 96% only.
The maximum charge capacity fluctates from time to time. Nothing to worry about it just does that I assume.
What is det estimatet time remaining after charging 100%?
Around 1 day and 15 hours.
I have the same issue! I left the phone charging the whole night, the morging after the battery charge indicator was 100%, but as soon as i un-plug the usb charging cable it fall back to 97%!
I suggest you to use the nokia diagnostic app to see the charging percentage of the battery, in my case is never up 97%. I think It's a WP7 bug...
The bug isn't that big.
I've had mine stuck on 45% for a while, that was really annoying
Hi,
When I received the Prime I was so happy to finally have it that in my haste I forgot to do the customary 8 hours first charge. My battery life is very poor and I was wondering if there is a way I can remedy the situation so that it become better battery life.
Thanks in advance
I dont have the dock, I live in Canada and I have the WW version of prime and I am at .11, didn't receive de .14 OTA update yet.

Haha same thing happened to me. Not sure there is much we can do other than run it through some deep cycles. (
Deep Cycle question
How many deep cycle would you do to try making up for the first 8 hour charge ?
you can try draining the battery then use CWM and wipe the battery status then leave it in the charger for 10ish hours~
Umm, Li-ion batteries don't require a long initial charge. That's a holdover from NiCad days. And fully draining the battery for a "deep cycle" is worse for it than almost anything else you can do with it.

Actually, its better to just drain it immediately when you take it out of the box. Mine came out of the box with something like 28% and I killed it by setting the screen to max brightness and never sleep and played a netflix movie.. Surprised to say 28% lasted a long time for the device..
Anyways, after it's dead continue to power it up for about an hour.. get it really low. Then charge it overnight 8 hours.. then you'll have a pretty nice cycled battery.
But what do I know..
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.
Hi,
On Friday evening I've updated my H9 to Pie.
I always charge my phone during the night to have it ready for the morning.
On Saturday morning I found it at 98% of charge. I have rebooted it and put in charge another time. This time it raised 100%. During the day the discharge has been good.
This morning another time it was at 98%.
Why? Is it a protection for the battery or I have issues with Pie update? What I can do?
I've had my g8 Play for a few months now and I've been relatively happy with it. The battery always lasted me longer than the full day, probably 30-36 hours of normal usage.
One day, a couple of weeks ago, the battery was down to 5% by early afternoon. I assumed that I had forgotten to charge it overnight as is my usual practice. Nope. It's now only getting 5+ hours on a charge.
I installed Accubattery and it reports that my battery capacity is still fine at 3941 of a rated 4000mAh rating. It also reports that I'm getting a full charge.
What has me worried is the battery drain of my apps. Chrome, for instance, is drawing 649.3 mA. That seems pretty high to me, but my top five apps are all quite similar.
Accubattery predicts that I will get 7h49m of normally use on a full charge.
I did a full factory reset but that did nothing.
Can anyone tell me what's going on?

There is a G8 play forum
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g8-play
Do you want this thread moved there?
Try LMSA'S flash rescue option
https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/update-moto-lenovo-moto-smart-assistant-t3951714
Sometimes OTA updates don't quite install correct or something and reflashing the firmware will fix it.
Lmsa is pretty easy to use.

Thanks Shadow. I'm currently traveling and only have my Linux laptop with me. I'll give this a shot next week once I'm home and have access to a Windows machine
Interestingly enough, the situation has spontaneously resolved. As of a few days ago, I'm back to normal. I unplugged my charger 16 hours ago at 80% charge and I'm now showing 1 day + 5 hours remaining. It must have been something that updated in the background that was causing my grief. Accubattery now reports that Chrome is drawing 321 mA.
