Your phone is always awake whereas mine isn't (see screenshot, awake is "éveillé"). Maybe you need to disable mobile network like me ?

Yes, but before the Pie update, my pocophone was going in deep sleep and uses 2% standby at night, now 10%

That's why I thinks it's a bug. May be usefull to make a bug report.
I have the same increased stand-by battery usage (1-2% per hour). After monitoring battery usage with a Gsam Battery Monitor app, I noticed that 'sms_snd wakeup' activity was active for several hours.
After googling, I found out that sms_snd is a proximity sensor's process.
Try to disable 'Pocket mode' in Settings -> Lock screen & password -> Advanced section.
I am testing it at the moment, will share my results after a day of usage.
Please try and share yours.

You can as well switch off the phone.
You have a severe mobile signal issue. The place where the phone was (while sleeping) has a very bad mobile signal. So for you it might be a solution to switch off the network. If you can't do that (as most of us can't afford to do that), another option is to switch to 3G or 2G where the signal might be better.

Actually I don't think it will disable this process. A lot of users are reporting that there proximity sensor is always on (small IR led in proximity always on). This activity could be the source :/

Yes I could switch it off at this point xD. But it's faster to wake up when it's on airplane mode. Anyway I don't personally need network when I'm sleeping.
I have not noticed any progress with Pocket mode turned off. Also double tap and change orientation wake up switchers are turned off. 10.2.2.0 is in use.
Still awaking, still battery draining...
Are there any news to resolve the problem?

Same issue with mine...
Googled a lot but no progress .. nothing works..
If anyone find solution.. please do inform me..
I did not have any issue when moving to MIUI 10 (androi Pie) myself on my pocophone, but I recently installed a nokia 5.1 plus for a friend.
New, out of the box, new install, immediate upgrade to android 9 (it's an android one phone), no additional apps installed.
It barely survived more than 10-12h, phone never went to sleep.
I found this was a quite common problem when upgrading to android pie, and most users suggest to clear system cache from recovery menu.
However, that is not possible anymore as in most cases android pie doesn't show you that option anymore.
I solved the issue by doing a factory reset from within the OS, then did not configure it when it started up. Instead, I turned it off again, booted to recovery menu and again wiped all data. After that, the phone was configured and the battery was fine. From 10-12h it now holds for 40+ hours.
For reference: that phone lost 30-40% during nighttime!
I'm having issues with my battery too, does anyone know how to fix this?

Hello, everybody. Newb here (only have had the HTC Evo View 4G for a couple of days now). I have a question about the battery and screen. Is it regular for the screen to use up about ~60 percent of the battery? (According the usage stats). I find that the screen is bright, even on the lowest setting.
Also, I have a question about the battery. It seems to be draining a little quick (I am using lowest brightness and WiFi only). Could some people share how long their battery usually lasts for regular usage? I don't think it's a hardware issue. Like I've said, I've only had it for 2 days, so I don't know if I still need to wait a little.
Thanks!
The screen is one of the biggest battery drainers (if not the biggest) on tablets. So if you are using the tablet a lot, and the screen is on for long periods of time, then 60% seems normal. I don't have my Flyer with me right now to check what my % for screen is.
Battery drain is going to depend a bunch on how much you are using your View, and for what. With moderate usage, I can get around 2 days on a charge. I'd say that is about average for me. But if you are downloading big files and gaming, and/or have the screen on a lot, it can be significantly less.

Okay, that makes sense. The battery life seems to be getting better. One more question. I want WiFi to turn off after a certain amount of time once the screen timeouts. Is there any way to do this in the settings or with an app? The settings (official 3.2) has a WiFi timeout policy that gives three options:
Switch from WiFi to mobile data when screen is off
Never switch WiFi off
Never switch WiFi off when plugged in
I live in Canada and don't have a plan. Would using the first option drain more battery because it is looking for a connection? Or should I use the third option?
Thanks again.
Hmm, not sure. I have the WiFi only version of the Flyer, and on mine the first choice is just "When screen turns off". The first choice on your View is weird. Mobile data always uses more power than WiFi, if both are available. I don't see why you would ever want that.
BTW, I'm at home and have access to my Flyer now. Battery usage for screen is 52% for me. So I'd say 60% you mentioned is pretty normal.
You should also take into account, unless you've taken steps to turn it off/remove it, Cell standby might also be causing your battery life to take a hit. Since the View is set up to also be able to receive text messages, out of the box it's constantly trying to connect to Sprint's cellular network, even if you have mobile data turned off. This thread discusses ways to deal with it. Cell standby used to be one of the biggest users of my battery. Now, it's no longer a problem and I've seen a major increase in battery life.
As for the WiFi issue, the first choice in the settings actually says "When screen turns off (uses more mobile data)." That doesn't mean that it automatically switches mobile data on if you've turned it off in the settings by selecting that option. It's worded that way because the View is designed to be used on Sprint's network, so under normal circumstances it is assumed that if you turn WiFi off, you'll have a data plan and automatically connect to the mobile data network. If you don't have an account with mobile data from Sprint, and you've turned off mobile data in the settings, it won't be an issue because you have nothing to connect to.

Okay, thanks everybody. I really appreciate it. With heavy usage (basically using it all the time) I'd get about 6 hours and 10 minutes. Is that normal for everybody else?
Also, I have a couple of more questions, if you guys don't mind.
First of all, could rooting my device boost my battery life? Would it give me more access to settings like screen brightness?
And, do apps running in the background use battery life or are they 'frozen' until active? This sort of leads me into my next question. Is having 400-500MB of RAM always being used normal? Is the OS using all of it?
And I notice that when I put my tablet in airplane mode (to kill the 4G radio) I lose access to Bluetooth. Is this normal and will turning off airplane mode for a minute be a battery drain?
Thanks again, guys.

Answers:
Rooting won't necessarily boost battery life, but does give you ways to access more system items if you want using apps that take advantage of root.
Android attempts to keep non-rumming apps in memory so that it can load them faster in the future (Ram is much faster than SD memory). 80% Ram full is typical.
Airplane mode turns off all radios, BT, Wifi, GPS, 3g.
There are apps in the market that can turn various things on / off based on your environment / time / conditions

You don't need root access to adjust screen brightness. Settings -> Screen -> Brightness.

Airplane mode turns off all radios initially, but then you can turn almost all of them right back on (except for the cellular radios). I run mine in airplane mode all the time to keep the cellular radio completely inactive, but I still use WiFi, GPS, and Bluetooth when I need/want them, and they all work great. Are you running Gingerbread or Honeycomb? I do seem to remember some mentions of not being able to use Bluetooth in airplane mode on Gingerbread. It works perfectly fine on Honeycomb.
And you can turn off the 4G radio and all data service without turning on airplane mode (Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Mobile network). Doing this turns off all radios that receive data from the cellular network, but it doesn't turn all cellular functions off since the View is also set up to receive text messages. That's what airplane mode or any of these options address.
What I meant by adjusting the screen brightness was being able to control its range more than I can right now (I feel that even the lowest setting can be too much). But it seems that rooting/installing a custom ROM wouldn't do too much for the battery.
But my issue with airplane mode is that I can't turn on Bluetooth with it (Bluetooth is 'grayed out'). I am running official Honeycomb.

Did you try tapping on the box for Bluetooth in the settings even though it looks like you can't, and did you try using a widget to turn it on? I'm using stock OTA Honeycomb, and Bluetooth works perfectly fine for me while in airplane mode. I can turn it on in the settings (the box does look a little "grayed out," but you can still select it) or via a homescreen widget. If you can't turn it on with either of those, then it would seem that you've got some other type of problem. It works fine for me. I just tested it out again.

I just tried it. It seems to not be working for me, but it doesn't seem like a glitch but something built into the OS (I tried with a widget and it did a little 'no' animation). It's alright, I rarely use Bluetooth anyway.
Thanks for all of your help (plus everybody else, too)!

I'd venture to say it's not something built into the OS. If it is built into the OS, then there's a glitch that allows me to use it under the same circumstances, and glitches rarely enable functionality. They almost always cause a device to lose functionality like you're experiencing. I'd be curious to know if anyone else is having the same issue you're having.
Last time I have ran battery test on my Flyer I ran it for almost 11 days on one charge. Yeap, 11 days. I mostly used Flyer as a notepad, checked orders on website couple of times a day, read emails. One day I played a game for about 20 minutes. At the end I set up and tested Plex and Google Music. I stopped the test at 11% charge. Overall screen was on for a bit over 4 hours (40%). Wi-fi on for 16 hours (only 4% ??) according to stats. That's pretty much it. Tablet idle 43%. Fairly light usage, but I mostly was testing how much of useable time I can get out of it. 11 days is a pleasing result.
When i fall asleep i just place my phone nearby the bed and its on airplane mode,wifi closed,data closed and generally no apps running(i think so).The battery is level (ex)50% and when i wake up,about 7 hours later its always about 15-20%.why this happen?
I checked the battery manager just after i waked up and the first was screen(56%) and after that adobe reader(10%)

Is your phone rooted? Like others said, try to install the xda-forum version of BBS but it's weird because I did install the one from GPlay.
One of the first lead is the WiFi? Is it always turned on? There's a bug with it. Go into the advanced WiFi settings and set it to 'only if activated' (I don't know the exact spell in English but it's something like that).
But you better have to dl BBS & check the wakelocks.

what?
Underclock when you're not using your phone.
That will save battery.
If ur using stock TW. Put on power saving mode
PM Me if u want to know more.
Try using an app called easy battery saver and only use the cable and plug that came with your galaxy s3 it works for me, today I had eight hours after charge and using internet with 3g nearly continuously.
You would get much more by leaving it on standby.
Also restrict your background data, turn off your automatic updates at play store andturn off WiFi while screen is asleep.
Follow all these for better battery.
Use any battery investigation apk/widget (I'd recommend battery monitor widget) and look what is causing the drain...
may I guess: cell standby or gpsd?
guys i remember you that the cell phone is on flight mode with wifi,gps and data turned off
and, if you have a soft which contains a bug - you'll have such processes running.
It is up to you to install any apk which will contain more detailed statistics what actually is consuming so much juice.
If you do not want - no one would force you.

I have the exactly same problem,30% drain overnight.That happens after updating to 4.1.1 JellyBean.With ICS never happened.
Go into the battery page, click on the graph and then post a screenshot of the detailed graph here. It is usually an app or process not letting the phone go into standby. Happened to me when I had my phone on ICS out of the box. I fixed that all up through the individual app settings and all was sweet. Then when I went from ICS to JB, the issue came up again and I had to go through the apps again to change the settings back. It seems that by updating from ICS to JB, certain settings get set back to default, which then does not allow the phone to go into standby.
Culprits that I have found are:
Facebook - set to manual refresh interval
Weather (or any weather widget) - manual refresh interval
Google play store - Turn off Google AdMob Ads
Any form of newsreader (I was using Pulse) - Turn off notification when there are new stories
Wifi advanced settings - Set Keep Wifi on during sleep to "Always"
Samsung account - Turn off sync
Samsung app store - Turn off Update Notification, turn off push notification, turn off ad preferences.

Guys please keep in mind that keeping the stock os without any custom kernel might be not as effective than using an adequate custom rom...
In addition remember, cooler temperatures cause ur battery to lose its charge faster...
So if ur phone is placed on the window shelf and its getting cold during the night it might cause ur battery to drop fast..

Hope i helped.
I've had my Z5C for about 10 days. I'm relatively happy with it, except for the battery life. Much worse than my old Z1C. Less than 24 hours of battery; my Z1C always got 24+. So, last night I tried the Stamina mode for the first time. Very UNIMPRESSED! I must be missing something.
1. In Stamina mode I still loss 15% of my charge in 7 hours.
2. With Stamina mode on it takes a couple minutes for my Wi-Fi to reconnect once I turn the screen on. Hardly usable.
What am I missing? Are any of you happy with the battery life? Does it improve over time? If you use Stamina mode, what are your settings and what is a typical battery discharge amount over an 8 hour period of non-use? Suggestions?
Thanks.
Im quite pleased with the battery life. 2-3 days with abt 4 hrs screen on time. I have disabled few services and applications from settings. There is a thread about it. Last night battery dropped only about 2%
For starters, disable location and untick "Scanning always available" under Wifi>Advanced Settings. Disable photo analyser service under All apps. Try these out first

5. I'm using an old weather app, BeWeather, because I like its widgets. I did notice that under "Location" BeWeather showed high battery use, while the Google apps listed showed low battery use. Any weather apps with widgets suggestions that might have low battery use?

I might be wrong on some points, if this changed over the years, but...
1) If android/google isn't searching for location constantly, it will remember the last known location. So only your approximate location will be known, and apps that use it more specifically (like google fit, running apps etc.) will be less effective.
2) It means that your phone will connect to Google servers, even when Wifi is off. As far as I know.
3) It should be in your list with all apps. If it's not, I have no clue where else you should look.
5) I use "transparent clock & weather", and I never ask it to update his location constantly. Instead, I use a fixed location. Even when I'm 100km away from here, the weather will still be about the same, so for me that's enough.
Can't you look at the battery usage stats and disable anything that is near the top that you dont need?
I find the normal drain while using it is about the same as even my old phone. However standby is much much better. I used the phone sparingly and it lasted me about 2.5 days. On average, its lasting me about 2 days. On heavy usage days, I only get a day out of it. I havent had it very long so more testing is needed. There was only one instance where it drained really fast. I was in a plane on the ground. It seems that the reception is rather poor so it has to try alot harder to maintain a signal.

Thanks for your reply.
I looked at the power management stats. Oddly, the battery usage is:
Screen 34%
Cell standby 8%
Phone idle 6%
Android system 4%
Android OS 4%
Nothing else is listed. Under App Power Consumption it shows "Currently no apps to report". I don't feel that I'm a heavy user; minimal calls; minimal browser use; minimal texts. I have a weather widget with clock on both screens I've set up. The weather is set to update every 30 minutes. I've stopped using a couple widgets, as mentioned above, but I still don't see a significant improvement.
When you say "standby is much much better", are you talking about Stamina mode, or something else?
Thanks again.
Unless you use google maps, location doesn't matter all that much. Also if you need it in any app, you will be prompted to enable it. Once your work is done, you can turn it off again. Location actually does eat a considerable amount of battery.
About "scanning always available". It means that the phone will constantly be looking for wifi even if the wifi is turned off. This causes standby battery drain so it's good to leave it off.
I'm not sure about the widgets though as I haven't used them.
Lastly, photo analyser service should be in Settings>Apps>All Apps. Disable it to improve performance and battery life as reported by many users here and on talk.sonymobile.com
Cheers

Re: item 3. I had already disabled.
Any more suggestions? I turned on Stamina last night; still lost about 2% an hour. At the rate I now see (including using Stamina at night), I might get 36 hours of usage per charge, and I'm not a heavy user. Nowhere near some of the reports I've seen. I've turned off location, turned off weather updates for 6 hours of the night, turned off scanning always available in Wi-Fi, disabled photo analyzer, and removed widgets that seem to be "on" all the time. Additional questions:
1. I noticed that I have "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" set to always; is that OK, or do most of you have that off?
2. Are you all using the regular Stamina mode or the Ultra mode?
3. What is your setting for "Queue background data"?
That's it for now. But I expect to have more questions until I see the 2-3 day range you all talk about.
Thanks.

Try another night with Network mode set to gsm only. Just a thought
---------- Post added at 11:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:53 PM ----------
I actually lose 0-1% overnight (in 8 hours on an average) on GSM only. I usually keep it on 2G. So basically my overnight battery drain is negligible. Also, I don't even use Stamina mode

I actually lose 0-1% overnight (in 8 hours on an average) on GSM only. I usually keep it on 2G. So basically my overnight battery drain is negligible. Also, I don't even use Stamina mode

Thanks for your reply. I've set the network to GSM Only. Seems to help a bit, but I'm still getting 2% battery drainage PER HOUR with Stamina ON! during the night. Again, looking at all the suggestions. The only one that I really use and would rather not disable is "Location". All of the apps under location show "Low battery use". I also prefer to have my screen brightness always around 90% (old age ). Can you tell me what widgets you have on your screens? I'm thinking I'll slowly delete each widget, if any of you think that'll help. I can live with 30+ hours of battery, but it's far from what I was expecting after reading the reviews. My Z1C had better battery duration.

I just have the walkman and clock widgets. Also, i switched wifi off before going to sleep or if it is switched on, i turn on stamina. Also, i have all sorts of sync disabled as i sync manually. My battery is nearly as good as that on Z3c (which is pretty amazing). Maybe some app is acting up on your part :/ I have nothing else to suggest man.

Might be my weather app. It's set to update every hour. I'll try turning off the wi-fi tonight. Last night I lost 11% in 8 hours. Acceptable, but not great. Maybe I'm looking for too much.
Thanks again for your reply.

Not the weather app. It's set to not update from 11pm to 5am. Tried the location off, no improvement. WiFi was off using Stamina. Something else is going on that uses 2% an hour no matter what.

Aaaand I've run out of ideas. Try gsam batrery monitor from the playstore. Let it run through the night. That should give you an idea of the consuming apps
Thanks for your reply. I turned off my WiFi last night; only a 4% total loss. Tonight I'll try both the WiFi off and stamina, in addition to your battery monitor suggestion. Getting close! ?
Lost just 2% over 7 hours tonight! Stamina on. But I think my problems were all caused by my Bluetooth. I have 2 speakers on either end of my place that were always on. I also had my phone's BT always on. I noticed that at times both speakers showed being connected at the same time. I suspect that BT was constantly connecting and disconnecting as I moved through the apartment. I've turned off the BT on my phone. Battery life much improved. It's been 21 hours since my last charge and I'm still at 58%.
Thanks to all who responded.

Hello there,
I have a concern with my honor 7 (PLKL01B380) which his battery empties at high speed.
My system never comes in deep sleep. I lose almost 10% overnight. Since I disabled the update on the lock screen magazine, I've gained a little bit of autonomy.
What I do not understand is that the wifi reports that it is still active as I always cut the night. For information about the wifi, the relationship between the following two screen shots is strange. I do not know where to look for a solution. I did the update to the B380, I turn off wifi and sync during the night but still nothing. I have two sim cards, I know it consumes more but is that why consumption is continuous all night?
Thank you for your ideas.

Have u tried backup, factory reset and restore?
Hello,
Off course, i thinking about full reset but I don't like this idea because I don't want to lose time on reinstall my apps, organize in groups, reinstall all accounts and passwords .. etc.
I've searched in all parameters and I think i've found the two parameters causing trouble
1. As I say in first message, magazine unlock auto-update, set it to disabled
2. In localisation parameter / advanced parameters / Localisation Data / Extended menu (below) / Search parameters / Wifi Search, set it disabled -> this one make my wifi always on
Now, it looks better, phone going in standby, and wifi not always marked as activated in the graphical view of battery.
I'll see next night if it go to deep sleep :good:
Thanks
Well in my opinion it's better to waste a lot of time re-setting-up your phone than having a huge battery drain, but try a night more, it could be the solution you're on to:fingers-crossed:
I had battery drain problem too. I solved it just by switching off viber contact sync in viber general settings. It kept my phone awake with screen off, and my battery life was horrible. Let me know if it helps.

I think that only applies if u use viber
Hi guys, this is not the thread where you'll find fancy kernel tweaks to improve battery. I'll share a few little things I personally follow that considerably improved battery life for me. You don't even need root
If you use any other battery saving placebo like greenify or wakelock blocker, then you're on your own. I don't recommend these
Follow each of these steps -
1. Turn OFF pocket detection, screensaver and ambient display.
(AD is upto your preference, doesn't drain battery much)
2. Set location to device only mode.
(DE mode uses GPS satellites and gives enough accuracy, high accuracy mode keeps bluetooth and wifi scanning on, draining battery)
3. Turn location permission off for google app.
(drains alot of battery)
If possible disable location for every app except maps and google play services.
(tracks your device when it's lost)
4. Go to location settings, scanning and check whether bluetooth and wifi scanning are off, if not, turn them off.
5. Go to battery, performance and turn off automatic optimization.
6. Most important step, reboot your phone after doing all this.
That's it guys, try this and report Suggestions are welcome
Good Tips.
Very nice

I MIGHT have missed some points, I'll add them if there are any. Suggestions are welcome

I have done all these except 6 point (once per day). Plus I have installed greenify. But still battery drain in most of the ROMs. Even if I won't use my phone, the battery is draining fast. I have turned location off (always)

Before greenify, it was like 5% drain per 10 minutes even if I won't use phone

Just try that bud
actually the thing is that kernel is not proper for any ROMs for which there is a battery drain...
changing kernels will be battery saving because of CPU tweaks running always in the background even if the device's screen is off...
use greenify in magisk for more if you dont want to tweak with your kernel...
do this and tell if your battery drain is solved... also follow these steps above.. they are mandatory as well...
it doesnot work well for resurrection remix ROMs... i have tried... maybe fixed by change in kernel tweaks...
For some weird reason my device doesnt go deep sleep anymore. The battery graph use to to be flat but now therea a slight steep when i am asleep. I still do my usual habit of turn of wifi, turn off location, turn of sync, turn off scanning for bluetooth and wifi, turn off locatiom history. I am on stuart's los 14.1. this started to happen two days ago. You know the best app to troubleshoot?screen and lineageos system and android is on top of battery stats when checking after waking up overnight.i have no addon or other tweaks. Not even greenify because battery graph overnight is flat before.

Where I can see you're doing wrong is turning things on and off. The steps mentioned in thread do not break a single thing. Keep location as device only mode forever (no on off required).
Just follow those steps for atleast one cycle and report

Ill try. Ive been doing this for a long time since teammex releases builds. And since the first build of stuart got no problem up to the second build.by the way i am.only turning on location once in awhile if i need navigation. Only wifi and data connection is frequently turned off and on. The rest is off 90% of the time

I'm on the latest build of Stuart and I still have no problem, easily getting more than 9 hours sot without compromising anything
Battery drain issue
Any one having a battery drain problem ........Go to magisk( if not installed plz find the tread and do it)....Then download Enable Doze ..... Optimize Google play services and Google app and see if it is fixed......Worked for me
Very nice practical advice. However, greenify is not a fancy placebo. Together with Leandroid, and only following no.1 and 4 of your guide, battery almost doesnt drain at all on my snapdragon Xiaomi when idle. For my MTk xiaomis, I have to flash the drain fix in addition to get the same results as the snapdragon variants.
Anyway, good advise.
