What's your experience on the battery life?
I fully charged it and it got from 100% to 94% in 11 hours in complete idle mode with wifi and location services on. Is that normal?
I think 6% in 11 hours in idle is normal.

Thanks a lot thats an encouraging reply ! I was a little bit confused about this. I moved from Redmi note 9s to this,and the battery on redmi was outstanding. Also can you tell me something about the battery's temperature? Vewing facebook app or watching on youtube the battery's temperature is around 39 celcius.is that normal too ?

Hi, i have 35° watching youtube. Faceboook app is not installed in my phone.
I think 39° isn't alarming temperature.
Your drain in 11 hours is normal I think. What I've noticed is that on the battery page there is always Android System consuming a lot of battery, almost like Screen. Is that happening for you too?

Hi. I have my s2 with 2000 mAh Samsung battery, and on official firmware, and the battery is discharging very fast: 62% in 6h and 23 minutes on normal use. On F1 GalaxyNexus rom i have about 70% after 8 hours of normal use. There is a sollution to fix this huge drain?
Checking it simply, it can be guessed that your phone isnt going into deep sleep at all. Install betterbatterystats found free in xda and see whats causing the wake lock.

Your screenshots give no useful information to diagnose your alleged problem.
There's no such thing as "normal use".
Hi!
Have you installed any applications? It might be one of theese that holds a wake lock which prevents the phone from going down in "sleep mode".
Regards!

A bit of basic arithmetic tells me you've had a bit over 2 hrs of screen on time (that's a rough calculation), and you've used a bit more than a 3rd of battery capacity, so that indicates (again roughly) you'd expect to get ~6 hrs of screen on time.
What's the problem
Nothing wrong here if you didn't use a charger than 6 hours with 60% left means 12 hours easy.
I agree with the guy in the above post, Facebook potentially is the main culprit. Give it about 3 battery cycles? What kernel are you using?
Facebook is fine, he is using it that much, so are the calls. heck if I get that kinda battery while mostly idle I'll be happy.

Get better battery stats from xda and cpu spy from play store. Bbs will see if you have any rogue app that's draining battery and cpu spy will see if your phone is deep sleeping

Greetings all ,
I noticed that my battery on Xperia tablet s draining very fast .
For example : i am on battery for 4h 24 minutes and i have 76 % left with 1hour 26 minutes screen time .( Which i made some internet Surf and watch some video)
Android OS has 26% of usage with Keep wake 2h 16 minutes.
Is that ok ? or something going wrong with my battery?
I think thats very bad stats.

I know my battery runs 7~8h of continuous use with 50% brightness. About 5:30h~6h with 80%+ brightness.
That is a mix of web browsing, videos, facebook, etc.
EDIT:
Forgot to mention that the stand by consumption on the Tablet S is MUCH grater than, for example, samsung galaxy tab. Whereas Samsung practically doesn't use aby battery, the Tablet S may consume up to 1% every hour on stand by.
Thanks for your reply mate.
After charging several times now and did a full cicles of the battery i am getting very satisfied results and i am very happy
Thanks

I recently charged my phone overnight and suddenly the battery has gotten worse. I thought it was an error with the ROM possibly so I updated it and to no avail. On Ampere the battery health is good but the actual speed of charging fluctuates from 10ma to 1830ma (but it also peaked at 4880 so take that with a grain of salt). The battery has also been lasting a lot less than before. I'm running the default Global ROM. Any help is appreciated as currently I'm charging it fully to try and calibrate it.

seemingly rooting & deleting battery data file is the only solution. I'm hoping to recalubrate it naturally by totally discharging & recharging it to 100 upon normal usage don't know if it'll harm my battery though :/

Did that work for you? After 8 hours of charging I'm finally at 100 and hopefully it'll be good when I fully empty it and then charge it again

It is giving a little progress. But don't go discharging your battery down to 0%. It might harm your battery.

Does your phone charge quickly again? I'm following a guide I found on Android Pit and I hope it helps.
yeah I've noticed bad battery on last 2 updates, 7.3.6 and 7.3.7 global rom. Looking in installed apps, runing, I can lots of processes stuck on restarting all the time.
My battery was actually charging normally but the max amount of usage was like 4 to 5 hours SOT and in normal use one day and a half... This happened to me after flashing CM13, though i don't charge the developer for this "Problem" as it might not be the dev's fault but mine...

well it's my wife's phone and she says charging was still fine, but i wouldn't completely trust that.
but anyway, i think i jumped the gun on saying the problem was in 7.3.7 as well, as today's testing seems to show is back to something like normal again.. but I'm still going to keep an eye on it over the next few days
Hello all ,
I was about to buy an Exynos model and read somewhere on here that there was an update to fix battery life. Is this true and how much has it improved ?
Thanks
Personally I see much better battery life after the April security update. SOT gets about 6 hours of normal use.
i still haven't received the latest update, but my battery life is great
i get 8hrs of SOT
ARD 4 is latest firmware ?
From wich country ?
Tnx.

Latest security patch, i.e. 1st April 2018
Reading Anandtech article, exynos does not seem to be a good choice unfortunately. I have read all about it after my devices was shipped today, might return it.
I will tell u the truth, i have snapdragon and 5 hrs of SOT , since 1 month so the battery life is almost same
5-6h SOT with 2 days of usage between each charge. But depends heaviliy on your usage.

Thanks, this is not bad at all for an exynos. This is really odd as some users claim they get much less like 3 hours SOT and 16 hours standby. Are you on BER5 btw.? Thanks

Yes, i am. I also changed some settings of the device and disabled a lot of apps to save some power, but im not using a power saving mode. Standby drain is still a bit high though with 3-4% in 7h.

I'd like to know if you guys are using Facebook and Messenger apps. Tried it on a brand new unit without logging it in and the standby drain is less than 0.5% an hour. Installed those two because I actually need the Messenger (can't seem to greenify Facebook) and my standby drain is like 2% per hour.

Nope, i do not use Facebook at all, only Whatsapp and Telegram. Facebook is known to be a battery killer. But i think there are official lite apps which significally reduce the power drain.

Recharging the G965F(exynos dual sim) every evening at 7,8 PM after unplugging in the morning at 6,7 AM.
AOD , gallery syncing, nearby device scanning, cloud based services, find my mobile service, NFC off. Wifi power saving on, 5 Sammy blaotwares disabled , no game playing , most appkications are in sleeping mode, no battery hogging app and I'm just a light to moderate user with 90 % wifi connection.
4 to 5 hours sot and 13,14 or maximum 15 hours it lasts. Experienced other top of the line phones with better battery life.

With Messenger you mean the Facebook Messenger? Well no facebook, no friends at facebook to chat with .
I just dont like this company at all. The idea behind it is really cool, keeping people connected. But what they do with your data isnt. Not a tiny bit.
And if the trend goes on, WhatsApp will also be uninstalled someday. But this would be hard, since nearly no one uses an alternative messenger.
Whatsapp does the job for me and its much easier on the battery.
But back to the topic: Have you tried this Lite app?
Should be less stressfull for your battery.

Sounds a lot like my usage, also the settings you have done. Did you also disable 4G active while on Wifi? Its hidden in the developer settings.
Otherwise im currently ~32,5h off the charger with 42% left. My screen usage is at 2h 22min, so maybe 4,5h overall in this run. But its not too bad cause of the overall runtime, as standby also drains the battery.
If im pushing the battery more without trying to achieve 2 days i have no problem getting to 6h of SOT.

That sounds very similar to another poster here who is also having issues with dual sim battery drain. He also made the same comment about having better battery life with other "top of the line" phones. Interestingly, I thought you posted a screenshot of 8+ hours SOT with the exynos recently (and 15+ hours SOT with the snapdragon). So I suppose those figures weren't a good reflection of your "average" SOT? As now you're mentioning only half that SOT, despite quite a few tweaks too.
Question - it sounds like you have around 9-10 hours where you're not actively using the phone during a typical discharge cycle. Do you have a sense of what your hourly standby drain is (I asked the same question of the other person having issues and I think he mentioned about 1% or less drain per hour)? A good way of observing it is leaving the phone uncharged overnight. I'm just curious as to whether your relatively poor battery life is mainly due to excessive standby drain or excessive drain despite only doing light-moderate tasks. I ask this because, in my experience (and also with people like Galaxo60) and demonstrated in numerous battery drain video tests, heavy use (eg. GPS navigation with high accuracy) tends to drain the battery by around 10-15% per hour and very heavy use (complex games, video calling) tends to drain the battery by 15-20% per hour.
Assuming a standby drain of 1% per hour (which is on the high side with AOD disabled and a good wifi connection), you can see that even if you played a complex game for 2 hours (40%), then an hour later (1%) you did a video call for an hour (20%), then an hour later (1%) you spent 2 hours navigating Maps with GPS on high accuracy (30%), and then you went to sleep for 6 hours (6%), your battery would be down to about 2% over a total of 13 hours on battery with 5 hours SOT. I'm probably giving the high side of the estimated battery drain in each task too. And this should be without any significant tweaking (based on my experience, and unless those video tests forget to mention tweaking etc). It sounds like you don't do any of these heavy or very heavy tasks, and therefore your SOT should be more like 6-7 hours over 20 hours or so (just a rough guess to make the point).
So assuming your hourly standby drain is also around 1%, then the only thing I can think of is an app that you're using or a task that you're doing (or some specific combination of apps/tasks that exynos doesn't like?) that is draining the battery more than it should. Or throwing in a wild speculation, somehow there's a built-in kernel backdoor that activates while your screen is on and is secretly doing something that drains your battery more hehe (and of course doesn't show up in any battery stats).
I know the occasional poster has also mentioned having only 1-3 hours SOT, so you're not having the worst reported SOT I suppose. It would be interesting to know what the hourly standby drain for those people etc is too.

Where have you seen me posting 8+ hours with the exynos? It was of 6 hours and 50 minutes in the "screen on time" thread achieved when additional battery saving steps like bk package disabler disabling huge chunk of services and apps and keeping location in power saving mode. (bk no more working as it's removed from playstore and I went for factory reset after BRE5 update)
4 to 5 is the average sot with 13, 14 hours with few battery saving steps. No wakelocks no battery hogging applications.
after update of MIUI 9.6.18 is battery draining faster or I am only feeling this thing?
Yes, I feel the same. I'm barely getting just around 5 hours SOT on normal usage without gaming.
I don't think its true in my case, just today i drained it to 5% and sot was 7.5 hrs which included pubg 2 hrs, world of tanks 30mins, utube 1.5 hrs and other normal usage like twitter, little skype about 45 mins. sorry i don't hav the screenshot to show
I get 8hrs of sot.. I tried every thing to get drain faster but it doesn't drain..
