4.2 seems to be more power hungry than previous versiond - try wiping battery stats (though that wouldn't help in all probability) and see if anything is preventing device from sleeping

One night I charged my phone up to 100% for about 2 hours. I then disconnected it at about 12am. The following morning it had dropped down to 29% I had absolutely everything turned off.
Why??

Cm10.1 for me has better battery life than stock, from with a full charge in the morning though out the day I've made about an hour in phone calls played a few games. Its now 11pm for me and I'm still on 80%. Make sure you have data turned off while not using it and use the lowest screen brightness possible, those are main things that drain my battery.

I have installed better battery stats and cpu watch app and I'll charge it tonight and leave it overnight to see what's draining all the power

jb 4.2.x is a battery eater. on my old phone, the nexus s, 4.2.x performed really bad on battery life while 4.1.x was just great.

problem with battery please help

Hey guys
I have problem with battery
Now my battery 40% when left note sleep up to 3h i back i see battery 41%
I saw it with custom roms and stock i tried all kernels
And problems sometimes appear and sometimes no i tried wipe battery and
No diffrent
I want to destroy this problem for ever
Thanks alot.
No One Know How i can fix it ?
I don't think it's a bug.
I'm pretty sure it's just the way it estimates your battery percentage.
Here's how I think it works.
If you've been using your phone for, say, 3 hours straight, your phone calculates your drain rate like batt%/min or something.
And judging by how long you've used it for, it will estimate the approximate percentage of battery remaining.
When it's on deep sleep for a while, not only is the clock rate different (probably <200mHz at deep sleep), but the drain rate will change too.
The phone will re-estimate the battery percentage according to that new rate, hence the different (often higher) battery percentage, after a period of inactivity.
I could be completely wrong, but that's how I see it.
Thanks for ur Idea Brother
Any one have other Idea ?
I didnt get your problem....
Is your battery draining fast???you mean to say this???

If Battery drain is your problem, try this-
Discharge your battery till it switch off automatically
Now connect your charger in switch off mode and charge it till the full.
Now after recharging it fully, unplug your charger from the socket.
Go to recovery mode and go to advance,wipe battery stats and restart your device.
HIT THANKS BUTTON,AS IT IS MANDATORY.

Brother my Battery Not Drain its Incrase 1% with itself on deep sleep

Xperia Z - fast discharging at around 30% (4.1.2 software .253)

I've got a doubt about battery discharging in my phone. When it normally discharges from 100 to 35% everything is in normal, with similar drops every hour for ex. 2 days. But (even in standby) when battery is on app 35% I see very fast drop to 25-20% in couple mins. At the beggining I thought it is maybe broken cell in battery but I notice that around camera surface is warm, not hot. So it is probably matter of software. What drains my battery so fast and always at app 35-30%? Do you have similar issues? I made factory wipe few charging cycles ago but it did not make any changes.
Do you use any of the power management settings like stamina more or....
What apps do you have installed?
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
Yes, I always use stamina, I switched it off just before taking picture. I use dropbox, GO backup, Network Singal Info, netmonitor, Gmail and one additional mailbox. I have Google backup - off, Hangouty - logged off, google now - off.
Well, I don't use stamina mode anymore. I too had these sudden drops when stamina mode was on.
Try switching off stamina for a couple of cycles.
If you find that there are no drops, then you have your culprit.
So you mean not use stamina at all or switch it off at around app. 50%?
Try without stamina mode.

Ok, I'll give feedback in few days. Thanks.
Get root access, charge to 100%,delete battery stats(or use battery calibration app),drain battery to 0%,charge again to 100%, now see if still the same problem...

I've tried once without stamina but I got visible faster discharging so now after update to 4.2.2 I am testing with stamina ON.

Deleting battery stats does nothing. I post this every time I see someone recommend it, but I feel that the point needs driving home until people realise that it is a placebo at best.

my opinion
Sorry, it will not improve your battery, just if you have wrong indicated battery %,it maybe solve that. I solved a problem like that.my battery went from 50% down to 18 in a cuple of min.after deleting the stats and a few charges it was O.

No. The batterystats.bin file has no relation to the percentage displayed in the notification bar. It is used to calculate the usage statistics displayed in the battery usage section of settings. Nothing more. The file is deleted every time the battery is fully or nearly fully charged anyway.
The G+ post I linked to was written by an Android framework engineer, so I think they know their stuff

Ok,maybe i'm wrong,but somehow my problem was solved
I am sure that I hadn't wrong percentages but period of strange drain battery (when % suddenly drops) because I felt warm temperature around camera. So I suspect any strange thread/wakelock/trigger.

Battery drain when idle?

What type of drain are people getting while phone is not in use?
Last night I dropped from 64% to 54% in 9 hours, despite the fact that better battery stats showed 97% deep sleep for the time period. Seems bad to me. On lots of other phones, overnight drain is in the 2 - 5% range.
Yes, active notifications are disabled while I sleep. I don't even have touchless control set up yet, so it can't be that. I have the same few location services turned on that I always do, and like I said, I usually see 2-5% overnight on other phones, not 10%.
Anybody else?
PS for those of you who want to say who cares, I did this test because I was noticing faster than usual idle drain during the day, too, but sleeping is the best time to get a long chuck of idle time.
Edit: could it be because the phone always has those sensors on waiting to to see if the phone moves to light up the time? Or the double twist for camera sensor always being on?

Get "Better battery stats" or a similar app to see what is running during idle. But to be fair that is just over 1% an hour.....that is not awful whatsoever. The only way you could get any better would be to disable any wifi/data, and those location services.....OR just turn the phone off completely. I've had phones that have had way higher drain on idle than 1.5%.

Like I said in my op, better battery stats showed 97% deep sleep in that time period overnight. And most of my other phones have lost only half as much or so overnight.

If your phone is in idle state for a long time, there will be no third party apps running, only android OS, in the background. So, even if you loose 1% battery during the idle state, that will be cause of android OS, that is how it works. So Unless you are getting extremely low battery life, there is nothing to worry.
For example, suppose you left your phone for two hours and it drained 5% battery and Android System drained 80% of it, that means, Android system is 80% responsible for the 5% battery your phone lost, that means 80% of 5%drain=4%drain.
This means, for two hours, to keep your phone in idle state, Android system used 4% of battery. that isn't bad now , is it ?

You are right i guess.. :good: I'll give it couple of days and see how battery life is. Not satisfying for now anyway like %10 per hour or even worse.. Thanks for reply :highfive:

Since it is a new piece, give it a couple of charge cycles. once it stabilizes it will be good

[Q] High battery drain: any suggestions?

Greetings everyone!
I have a M7 with an Android HD Revolution 51.0 with LTE always on (of course switched to wi-fi when possible) and bluetooth (due to the Pebble).
I have a really huge battery drain issue: of course, I'm not willing the phone to last forever, not even 15 hrs with LTE and Bluetooth almost everytime on, but my M7 can't even last for 5 or 6 hrs.
I've also thought to return to stock but could that change the battery's life?
Thanks in advance for your help!
