Hey there,
I have recently bought a Huawei Mate 10 Pro but since from the beginning I have encountered a problem with the Phone Manager's optimisation. It is always within 91-97 percent. Sometimes 89. Why it doesnt reach 100 percent. Isnt that the point in optimizing? What do you think is the problem or do you think there is any problem at all? I have tried to search this but didnt know how to address the problem.
PS: Yesterday I opened up Ultra Power Saving Mode when the battery was on 6-7 percent. I had 6 hours of sleep. When I woke up phone was dead. When I plugged it on battery it showed 3%. Do you think this is a problem. I havent done any battery training with this lhone tough. Is it necessary with the new generation? Thanks
1. It is normal since you always have apps running in the background. when you optimize the phone it kills all apps but restarts the ones that are alwys running like antivirus, phone, messaging, whatsapp etc. thatswhy its never 100 (that is why it is not recommended to "clear all apps" all the time since some people argue that killing all apps and then restarting all background apps drains more battery than leaving them on in the first place.)
my opinion: no problem
2. huawei phones usualy turn off at 2%. i think this is to make sure the phone shuts down properly and prevent loss of data as well as protecting the battery since draining it completely reduces battery life span.
I notice that my phone drains a lot during night time sometimes (10%) but other nights ist just 3-5%. if you relly want your phone to not lose any battery turn on flight mode. bad cell reception can cause the phone to search for reception continously. Also i am not sure how much the power saving mode really does. the samsung power savings mode turns off a lot of things that the huawei does not. from what i can see this mode only turns the screen black and disables background apps. i dont think it will extend battery life a lot.
When i was travelling in australia and the US i often had bad cell reception and noticed that this drained my phone the most... since turning the phone off and on all the time drains a lot of battery, i recommend using flight mode. it not only turns off the hardware parts (antennas) of the phone but also all apps that run in the background simply stop trying to communicate.
Hope this helps.

Hello all! I have been a silent user of these forums for a while now. I am finally turning to you all for some help because I am unable to determine if the issues with my phone should be treated as related or unrelated.
My phone: Image attached, no outside URLs. In short, Galaxy S2, ATT, 4.0.3, not rooted.
I have had this phone since about March. Ironically, I had a model of the captivate that was subject to the random shut offs. ATT worked with me and since my upgrade was so close, they moved it up a bit. Badaboom this phone. Enough with the stories.
Applications: Some utilities I have on this phone include juice defender, advanced task killer, onavo data manager, eco battery protector. I do admit to the use of applications like instagram, facebook and browsing through some websites, but the effect on my phone is not necessary what I am looking to fix. Also, I use ADW, but I have been a long term user of ADW and find it to be light on my battery usage. Never even shows up in my battery summary. I just feel you should know.
The issue: My phone is being a pain in the rear. I am trying to determine if my overheating and poor battery life are related. When in idle, my phone can drain within about 5 hours. When I first started noticing this, I would make sure wifi and sync were off 'cause I really didn't need it on at work. Still, maybe saved myself 45min of battery life in idle (some screen usage to check time and w/e). Then when I charge, the phone gets so hot I start to worry. I was used to my captivate getting kind of hot, mostly because of the cheat cover, so I've stopped using it and charging with it. Right now, I mostly use a dock to charge my phone overnight, but still, when I take it off its hot as Hades.
Usage: I have noticed a significant difference with juice defender on/off, maybe about a couple hours worth of usage. Usage for me is usually gmail, texting and sometimes yahoo instant messenger. (Yahoo has been pretty light on my battery, never really noticed too much : I have noticed a significant difference with juice defender on/off, maybe about a couple hours worth of usage. Usage for me is usually gmail, texting and sometimes yahoo instant messenger. (Yahoo has been pretty light on my battery, never really noticed too much and that kind of drainage is normal). Heavy usage might include me using my phone as my GPS when driving. I do this while plugged in otherwise it would be off before I exit my hometown. The overheating gets so so so hot that I might unplug it for a bit and turn the AC on. :crying: Also, I use things like instagram, facebook, gizmodo but I make sure to kill those tasks when I am finished using the various utilities I have. I make sure I'm on wifi when I use those and I have them set to only working over wifi with onavo.
Other Issues: Recently, there have been issues with charging. I have had random moments where my phone does not register it is being plugged in until I pull the battery. At first I thought it was my car charger and maybe the fuse on it was a dud but when I got home and tried my dock, it was still nothing. Then I tried USB to my computer and still nothing. After a battery pull, this was fixed. Happened about 2 times over the past 2 months.
.. I don't know what to do to get a balance back. This has been going on for about 2 months now and I can't keep looking for a power source a mere 4 hours into usage.
I am considering looking towards rooting and seeing what customization I can do to manage my phone better and achieve a balance right for me. I am familiar with the process and proficient enough to work through it. Due to my phone feeling too new, I have been avoiding it. I would hate to shell the money out for a new battery, given this phone is less than a year old.
Please please please gurus .... I need your help. I don't know what to do to get back to having my smartphone work for me efficiently.
Well first get rid of the battery savers. In my experience they crashed my brothers phone and don't save battery in the slightest. Just remember to turn WiFi and data off using a toggle. Also download betterbatterystats from the xda forums and cpuspy from play store and let the phone do its thing for a day

Task killers do nothing. Juice defender used to help back in GB days. No longer needed. Just use the phone normally. Also did u say yer on the stock ICS kernel? I was gonna suggest a factory reset to clear data and cache but if yer on stock ICS kernel don't do that.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2
The first thing I would suggest is to get rid of the stock ICS root then custom rom ICS after that get a little app called battery calibration, fully charge the phone and calibrate the battery i have used this app and swear by it as far as juice defender i have used it and never really cared for it it really never did what is said it would.
Guys,
Sorry to bother you with this subject again...
Before I get the Lumia 800, I heard about the Battery Issue.
Anyway, I saw that with an update this problem was solved so, I've decided to buy this to simple use.
Well, I made all update that was disponible on Zune last sunday and this problem remains the same...
Sometimes I fell the mobile phone a little bit warm as well...
Is there a way to solve that?
I have no facebook installed, my email account is set up to check email in one hour. I cant figure out how solve it. Im very disappointed because my battery go down with 8 ou 9 hours in normal use...
How to check how much charge my battery gets when it is in full charge? Do you think that if I do a hard reset it can be solved?
Informations about my device:
O.S: 7.10.8773.98
FW: 1750.0805.8773.12270
RADIO: 1.7.50.08
Many thanks for any help!
Just to say that yesterday I wiped my phone and I had no good results.
Still bad. In the diagnostic tool show average of 200mA.
I cant believe that in some screenshots, other people has average of 70~100mA ..
I must doing something wrong, but I dont know what....
I love this phone, but the battery...
i will not tell you to turn off anything that can drain battery, because I guess you already did that. But one thing that people tend to leave on is the option to "send statistics". It is a huge battery drainer, it always connects to different servers and sends off statistics, like keyboard stats., sysem stats, location stats etc. so turn them off. Oh,an WP 7.8 is already out, install it in first place, use the Navifirm method to insure you delete everything from the phone
Thanks for your tip, but mine is as you said...
I think the only way will try WP7.8.

wings, I follow yours tips and installed WP7.8.
Unfortunatelly it doesnt work.
My phone is with gps, 3g and wifi turned on and my email account is set up to check email in one hour.
My phone keeps losing 8~10% per hour with screen off. In my oppinion it is so much! My last phone (an Xperia Play) it spend 1~2% during the same time with the same configuration...
I'm really disappointed with nokia.
Is it normal in diagnostic my phone has average 170mA? I saw some videos in the internet with some guys having 80mA as average in battery test...
I already tried to wait cellphone turns off without battery, and then charge during one entire night and without success... same problem again...
Really that I'm the only one that is having this issue recently???
tks again.
Same here wid me dude... I updated it to 7.8 n now my fully charged battery in the night goes fully drained in the morning. The phone is switched off when I wake up. And also the phone gets more hot also when the phone is in standby. on WP 7.5 I used to charge my phone the next day morning but with WP7.8 i'm charging it 2-3 times day.. Is any one facing the same issue???
First of all... having WiFi turned on at all times is a batterykiller, no matter what phone you use. Also using autocheck on email kills the battery very fast, push is even worse.
So... the first I do to keep the battery for at least 24 hours is to turn of automatic backlight and set it to medium. The lightsensor drains battery more than you thing. I have WiFi turned on only when I need it. And I check my mail manually...
I have also read somewhere that if you exit the PeopleHub in facebookmode it keeps syncing in the background, and if you leave it in phonebookmode it does not.
These small tips keeps my Lumia 800 with 7.8 for 18-24 hours with Heavy texting, medium 10-15 2 minute calls and checking my mail 3-4 times a day. I did the same while on 7.5

I tried that yesterday.
The curious thing in my case is that doesnt matter if 3g, wifi, push mail are activated or not. The drain of the battery remains the same.
For example, if i disable everything from my phone, it drains 8~9% of battery with screen off, and I doing nothing with it. And, if I enable everything, it keeps the drain in 8~9% of battery. Looks like my phone doesnt into in "deep sleep", maybe...
Very curious and very frustrating thing as well.
Anyway, thanks for try help me Manneman32!

I´m really sad to hear that nothing has helped you getting the phone to last longer. For me it sounds more like some kind of hardwarefault then... and I suppose the warranty has expired?
Best wishes
Are you connected to xbox live? Disabling this in games hub settings is a real battery saver for me.

How do i turn off that option that you're talking about ? And what about the Navifim method ? I'm pretty new around here and i could use your help, please.
Hi everybody!! First of all thanks to all nice guys and girls here who are always willing to help noobs like me!! You really deserve a prize!! :highfive: Now, talking about my phone.. my gt-i9100 with JellyBAM ROM 7.8.0 and dorimanx 9.18 has a big problem. Well, after 5 months i haven't been able to understand if it's a hardware problem or a software one. Because I' ve always had problems even with my stock firmware (4.0.3 XWLPF italian no-brand ITV), but they were different. My battery has always drained very fast in every condition (asleep, full loaded cpu, even while off) and sometimes the battery went down from 70 to 20 in one night while the telephone was off. Then while the telephone was on it suddenly blocked and started heating. i wasn't able to switch it off normally but i had to do it forcibly (pressing 10 secs power off button). Then i changed battery with a new original samsung one. After a bit the problems were the same. Meanwhile i rooted the phone then got a cooked rom and a new kernel. Same results. High battery drain in every situation, then when the battery is about 35%, it goes down like in 5 minutes and the telephone shuts down even if there are no running tasks, wifi and mobile data off, screen off. I really don't know what to do.. I waited so long before posting this because i know there are tons of threads like this, but i couldn't find any solution searching in them. Now i've seen that BetterBatteryStats report a partial wakelock called AudioOut_2. I' ve already done some researches, but i haven't been able to make it go away. Please Help me!! I don't know what to do anymore
P.S. This happened while i was writing. battery at 60%, then the phone freezed and i couldn't turn it off normally. so i forced to shut down and when i switched it on again battery was at 33%. The phone was quite hot around the camera. Then i used it about 3 minutes and it freezed again, this time becoming really really hot. i forced to power off again and when i switched on, battery was 1%. Then i turned it off normally and put it in charge. But the battery went up again on her own (Blue part of the graphic) at 70%!!! then it started charging (Lighter part of the graphic)...
Hi
I searched the web and also on Xda but I could not find an answer to the problem I got. I want to know if anybody has the same problem as I have. Firstly I want to clarify that I am NOT talking about a normal battery drainage caused by background apps, foreground apps, enabled wifi, bluetooth, google background activities, synchronisation, facebook, google location settings, any antivirus app or something of that kind. There are plenty of threads about that and google search is full of this topic. I am talking about something else when it comes to sudden and quick battery drainage.
It already happened to me a couple of times when I use the built in projector of my phone (samsung galaxy beam). So I watch a movie on the projector and it takes let say.. around 30 percent of my battery life. After I turn the projector off, close all foreground and background activities I wait like a minute or 2 and the battery status drops from lets say 28 to 20. This is normal as the battery status somehow needs some time to get "updated". So after every single fore- and background activity is closed and I got 20% battery left I go to bed. Then in the morning I look at my phone and its dead meaning the battery dropped to 0 causing the phone to turn off. And thats not normal for me. (I do hear the sound of very low battery in the early morning meaning it doesnt turn off within 1 hour which would mean faulty battery) First I was thinking that this problem might be caused by previously overheating the battery but I checked the temperature and here all is fine. Also both batteries are not too old and still work normally (beside the described problem). I may add that using the projector itself is not an "extreme" usage of the battery. When I use the projector, play an HD android game connected to my ps3 controller ...that is a different story.
So my question is what could cause this rapid battery percentage drop even tho the phone has no activity at all and sleeps. Sometimes it happens and sometimes it does not tho..If I would not use the projector then I loose around 2-3 percent overnight, if I use it then I sometimes loose 20% without doing anything. And thats not normal. I understand that a lot of people dont have my phone, but I still would like to know if anybody had the same issue on his phone after "heavy" usage? Maybe android somehow thinks that there is still activity even tho there isn´t. Like a virtual activity making the battery think its in use and therefore draining it. Any thoughts on that?
Im running on 4.1.2 JB stock rooted
Which phone?

I wrote that already in the post. Its the Samsung Galaxy Beam.
ya, even my xperia m with JB 4.3 drains heavily.
This is a case where actual current measurements will narrow things down.
It could be that when you turn off the projector, there is still some hardware drain going on.
It could also be that the last "20%" of your battery is really only 1%.
For current measurement, see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2487055
this can be due to some defect with ur battery or with the charger that you are using, you can rule this out may be by trying different charger and also changing the battery to rule out the battery defect. what @Renate NST say could also be the issue.
Problem solved
Ok. Just a little heads up. I managed to solve the problem. Thanks for the replies. This is how I solved it:
1. I first ran this app ( Battery Life Repair) to check for any faults in the battery itself https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.BoshBashStudios.batterydoctorrepair
2. Then I installed this app (BatteryCalibration): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration and followed the advise as written on the app (regarding full charge and discharge- I discharged it until the phone switched off). Find the XDA thread of this app here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1024867
3. After I watched a movie on the phones projector I restarted the phone and it stopped from draining the battery until 0 and went back to a normal discharging state
So with a bit of heavier battery usage (watching a movie on the projector) the phone or battery somehow memorized this usage, and thought it has to continue in this state even after I ended the movie and turned the projector off. But the above 3 actions solved my problem. Its important to mention that you will still loose some battery life as you need to restart the phone. But this is obviously way better than having the battery run down to 0% for a virtual usage... :good:
PS: If you still got problems with ur battery you might want to replace it or change your charger...
Hello.. Can someone who knows about battery draining give some help? I ve got this phone a week or so and I think the battery drains kinda fast. I'm not sure. I used to have Xiaomi Note 9s with a super battery. I m uploading a few screenshots . Is it drains fast?? Or all looks normal? Thanks in advance
That is normal battery life for this phone. In fact it looks pretty good.
Thanks for your reply
On my phone there is always Android System consuming a lot of battery, almost like Screen. I don't know if that's normal. On a REDMI 9 of a friend Android System is almost consuming nothing
@Primal.pr28 the cpu behaviour is setup to react to user action, rather than anticipate user action. If reacting to user actions is priority, then you want to react to the user action as quickly as possible (phone = smooth). This is not efficient. It means that even the smallest actions may require processing speeds greater than necessary. With better optimization you could get at least 25% more usage of your device at no cost of performance. Consider switching battery saver mode on by default forever as well, don't think you lose much performance.
Yesterday I used phone literally from 100-0%, and I noticed strange thing, the reading that it reported as consumed power by the screen was ~48% but it says something like 1300mAh. So obviously totally incorrect. If the battery is 4250mAh, then half of it should be around 2100mAh, not 1300.

It's not percent of the battery capacity that is displayed. It's percent of all things like hardware & software usage put together including system and apps.

Do you use your phone for more than 24h?? Xiaomi is showing only last 24h battery stats.
I'm having the same problem, 12.5.5.0, I heard 12.0.8.0 is more battery friendly?
Same here, insanely bad battery life with 12.5.5, dont understand why, android system is using more than 25%.
Look at this horor, pls

18% overnight !
12.5.5 is same as 12.5.3, most resources are consumed by screen, sometimes buggy Google app "Carrier services". Around 10% overnight battery consumption, phone lasts about 45-50 hours (light use, web browsing, work profile, emails, Whatsapp, constant synchronization of private and work apps on).
