I started a thread about the juice defender application. Can anybody recommend a good application for saving battery life? The juice defender application turns off data when my screen is off, but my battery is still draining very quickly.
Thank you
Take a look at 2x Battery by Sam Lu on Market. I like that app.
i have been using this app for some time now. and getting around 18 hours with moderate use. i decided to disable this app and i am getting round about the same battery time. i wanna know why this is so..could it be that greepower is wasting battery by staying running in the background? who else noticed this..is there a better way of conserving battery while keeping data connection on?
if you are using this app or any other battery saving app please comment or if you simply do not restrict your data connection i want to know how much battery u end up saving or using
read the sticky from ahalford on wakelocks. There you find all you need to know about optimizing battery life and why battery saving apps dont generally work.
I'm having trouble diagnosing battery drain. My stock battery app says Touchdown is staying awake for six plus hours an accounts for more than 20% of battery drain, but the gsam app registers Touchdown as barely having an impact on battery drain.
Even when I force touchdown to quit, the cpu usage continues to tick. Is this just the stock battery app malfunctioning, or is touchdown really the culprit?
Photos attached.
So my first Note 8 had draining problems which seemed to somehow fix itself with every other cycle. I replaced it with my current Note 8, which had really great battery life for a week. Yesterday, it started draining randomly at 3%++ on idle. I didn't download any new apps. I didn't change anything at all. According to GSAM, it just says it's from app usage, but I'm not using the phone and all apps are closed.
In Settings|Device Maintenance, you can find a list of apps that are draining the battery.
What does GSAM report for deep-sleep percentage?
Do you have AOD turned on? Many are reporting excessive battery drain from it.
I have found this useful on more than one occasion. It will give you deeper insight into what's going on, than the battery monitor in the phone.

Another vote to look at disabling AOD.
I checked my battery stats yesterday and it was the top consumer after 5 hours of work. I didn't use my phone much - there was about an hour of SOT, but the AOD seems to be taking way more than 1% an hour - more like 4-5% an hour in my case.
I do hope that they fix this issue in an update. I'd like to use AOD, but not at the expense of that much battery life per hour. I guess when they're testing their software, they don't test battery drain.
I wonder why the AOD draining more. I don't ever remember seeing AOD using battery on my S7E. I love the AOD but i have it set on a schedule. ifi leave it on all day it consumes 5-6% battery.
Chiming in to say AOD was the culprit for me as well. I was losing as much as 5% an hour on AOD. Just not optimized. I had it on all the time using my S8+ and it didn't drain more than 6% for a whole day which is something I can live with.
I don't have AoD turned on, but it's also not disabled. It's still active, but I can disable it with BK Disabler.

It doesn't list anything in particular that is draining it, which is why I'm having so much trouble finding out the issue. My old Note 8 would drain for 3% per hour and then after a charge or two, it would go back to normal. This time, it hasn't reverted back to normal yet.
For deep sleep and light sleep, they're both around 40-something percent.
Hey guys,
I have been playing with quite a lot of miui 12 settings to some how decrease battery drain and come up with these settings.
1)settings/privacy l/usage and diagnostic
When i turned this off my battery drain spiked on average i am loosing 8-10% daily overnight is it correct?
2) settings/password and security/privacy
Here you will find two more setting user experience program and send usage diagnostic data.
My question is that about these two setting will turning off increase battery drain.
Also if you guys have any more tips do share it
Thanks for reading it
