[Q] excessive high battery drain on FW 3.62 - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I have installed new firmware 3.62 1 week ago. First I had ARHD 31 installed. the battery drain was really high. (always with full wipe and few batt cycles)
Now I installed IC 6.0.2 ROM but the battery drain is still high.I checked what drains the battery I don't really have long wakelocks.. only AudioOut_4 but this is normal since you listen to music. I can get only 10 hours of standby time and 2,5 hours of screen on on brightness on 33%.
I have location and sync all disabled. Disabled even all push notifications with NotificationsOff but the drain is stil there..
I guess I have to downgrade my FW..
Do you guys have this too ??

stock or custom kernel?

stock

Same to me. With auti sync off and only some browsing and whatsapp and really little facebook browsing it is hard to get 12h standby with 1,5h screen.

Take my advice.....Go get the GE STOCK.....runs like a charm, great battery life. Been there done that with the roms you mentioned.
Even tried the pure stock 3.62.

Battery problem

I've updated to DOC & Kalpik's new v6 from 5.1.1, and charged 100% before I went to sleep. In the morning(6,5 hours) the battery was 79% with screen off, wifi on(never sleep).
Even if wifi was on, I don't think it's normal(3g should eat more), so I wiped the system. Now I'll put the applications back day by day, and let you, and other people know what eats the battery.
Okay, a bit of an update:
If in 6 hours battery dropped 20%, battery should drop 3% in 1 hour. I was letting phone alone for 1 hour, and battery dropped 4%!!!!
Completely new system, it's newly wiped v6. Spare parts says: running 30%, screen on: 30%. No app, that uses cpu too much.
Installed applications:
- Spare part, Swiftkey keyboard, Astro, Battery indicator, autokiller.
wifi on : never sleep. Stock adw.
Any idea what eats the battery? I just wiped the system from clockwork!!
Froyo, that's what.

Is it?
With Doc's rom it shouldn't be a problem. It's highly optimised to battery consumption. I remember having version 5f of that ROM, and battery life was excellent! I don't know what happened...
1% battery drain every 3 MINUTES
One more thing I have to add:
I have 1% battery drain every 3 MINUTES if I'm browsing stock browser. Now that's waaaaaay too much!
What I do wrong?? Or is it normal?!

Battery life
I managed 6 days straight hehe with old style phone use, no gaming, no serfing, just 5-10min call time avg per day, a bt headset connected 5hrs avg per day, screen brightnes set to auto. Just once connected over wifi to download 1-2 apps and 10mb files. Fully charged on Saturday around 1pm, empty battery today about 2pm. While idle the battery drops 1% every 6hrs.
Won't do it again though, cause this is not what the phone is made for , i realy missed it during this test
You will get 1% per 3 minutes of high cpu and screen use (browsing)
It ends up at about 100-0% in 5 hours
That is what I usually get out of my battery on all firmwares, watching video's last longer though, 6+ hours

i have the same problem...
last week when i was testing doc/kalpik's or 2.1 rom i got 3% out of 6hrs standby.
last night it drained 25% on sleep! (maybe sleep is disabled somehow? or a tweak that is preventing it from sleeping properly?)
anywho.. before all this happened i noticed that the phone started to lagg (not the normal pause or two.. you could not do anything without it lagging..) it started to drain the battery (1% every 1-2min, screen on but not doing anything).. it went back to normal when i disabled usb debugging mode.. (very strange)
maybe there is a fix to this?
cheers

Battery drain Darkys 5.6

Hey guys,
Can please anybody help me with my battery problem in Darkys 5.6 Rom? This night I lost 47% within 8 hours in standby with only wifi on all the time. With the stock JPO with OCLF installed i only had battery drain of 1-2% per hour with the same wifi configuration. Does anybody has this problem, too?
check if any program prevent your phone go to sleep.
under partial awake
There is nothing special. On the top was Android System with really little use...
i have the same problem. in just ~2h i lost ~ 30% in standby with no wifi or something else and ~180mb free ram. i have the same apps that i used in other builds without problems. so.... ?
I have same issue.. i have everything disabled.. from GPS to Data service.. believe me everything.. I even keep my brightness at zero...
Still every 15 mins.. I see the battery bar going down.. I dont sms .. I just turn on the screen to see the battery
Me again:
I flashed on Darkys 6.0 and flashed the BUJP5_Modem.zip, too. After that i deleted the batterystats with sgs tools, but I still got battery drain of 4% per hour... In the partial awake there is only Android System with 8 min 47 sec...

[Q] Bad battery drain, new SGS, tried everything

hello,
i've had my SGS for a little over a week now. from day one i noticed battery drain but i thought it was normal for a new device. i flashed darky's 10.1 extreme on the second day i got it because it was very slow and had a lot of bloatware ( i wasnt very patient and i flashed at 95% or 96% battery), the drain was still there. i let it go through a few recharge discharge cycles and no improvement, so i used an app from the market called "batterycalibration" by marosige, no improvement and it the reading would drop to 99% or 98% after taking it off the charger.
i did a little digging and discovered i had the android os bug (was over 50% usage usually) so i used titanium to wipe software update and samsung account, and froze the first, didnt help by much
i then flashed darky's again at 100%, and now it still reads full charge after removing charger and android os bug i gone (reads 4% system and 4% os), but drain was still there. i emptied it to the point it couldnt turn on anymore then charged it from wall charger while turned off to 100% while i slept
i woke up and tested it by playing a game (Blastmonkeys) for like 20 mins and the battery went down to 90%, that was less than 2 hours ago, and now its at 87% and it was completely idle
notes:
my brightness is turned all the way down with no animations but display reads 54%, wifi is usually on when im home but battery stats show 6% wifi so i dont think its a big problem
also, the device was bought locked in france by someone else and im in egypt, so i dont know anything about warranty..
im sorry for the long post but i tried to be as detailed as possible...
hello,when i upgraded my sgs to 2.3.3 i also got battery drain and android os was consuming hell lot of cpu about 70%,..,.,then i flashed 2.3.4 jvp i didnt get any battery drain in that firmware then i upgraded it to 2.3.4 jvq this also donot have ny battery drain..,,.i recommend u to flash it and try it once
will try, but isnt darky only compatible with JVH? what happens if i change to JVQ?

see jvp and jvq are bug fixing firmwares and i didnt use any custom rom ,..,i have stock firmware which i just rooted and didnt use any mod or rom.,,.,.jvp and jvq are stable roms diffrence between the both is that in jvq browser is improved gallery improvement,.,..,etc
As far as I know, the percentage not being 100% after unplugging is normal. To prevent wear on the battery, the phone cuts the charger after reaching 100%, and restarts charging when it reaches ~95%.
I don't think a 3% drop in battery over 2 hours is uncommon. Wifi and data connection will pull a lot of power if on, even in standby.

Normal, this phone drains about 20% battery per hour of screen use, slightly less when watching video.
2-3% drain over 2 hours is also pretty normal if you have wifi/sync on.

I just got my SIM card replaced today. The one I had used before was about 12 years old. So whenever you-re having battery issues, make sure your SIM card is not the cause for it .

Battery drain

Hello people
I bought z3compact, and I started to have big problems with battery drain, I tried to downgrade on 5.0.2, then tried factory, then 6.0.1 beta, and at least I tried custom rom Lolipop Slim and everytime is same story, I barely had one day battery juice, and when i go to sleep, I lose more than 20% thorough the night, when I go to settings number one in battery using is Cell standby, SOT I have barely 2 hours.
Is there any help, I think the radio is problem.
Thank you very much

Check the mobile radio active time in the apps that show the greatest battery drain. If any of them are more than an hour when you're sleeping, then the big has bitten you. Connect to wifi as a workaround. There's also a supposed fix for the mobile radio active bug somewhere on XDA. Try searching and food luck!

so I tried everything, and the result is that when mobile goes to sleep I have to many wakelocks, around 3500 wakelocks in one night, but when screen is on i have on 10 percent around 1 hour of SOT, please help me

Look at which apps are using the most battery under settings/power management/battery usage.
UNINSTALL facebook, which will be the biggest eater of battery, access it through the webpage
If you have a rooted phone, install AFWall., then restrict whatsapp,twitter,*messging apps* to wifi only, see if that makes a difference. Once you see a difference in batterybehavior, slowly let them back onto mobile data one at a time until you find the culprit (whatsapp probably)
Google Play Services is a usual suspect. Start by turning off synchronise on your google account.
There's a fix for google here.
If you have poor reception of mobile signal in your house, trying turning the phone to GSM.
Settings/wifi/advanced wifi - scanning always available OFF - keep wifi on during sleep ONLY WHEN PLUGGED IN
Research on the BBS thread
If you have a rooted phone download Disableservice from the playstore.
Once it's installed, open the system tab, open Google Play Services, then untick (disable) the following:
ConfigFetchService
FitnessSyncAdapterService
GoogleLocationManagerService
GoogleLocationService
NetworkLocationService
ProximitySettingInjectorService
UserPresenceService
WearableControlService
WearableService
WearableSyncService
then reboot your phone.
Disabling these from running should have no impact on your phone, it doesn't for me, and will give you 10-15% more battery life.
The other thing that extended my battery life was deleting the cached data. Settings\Storage and hold down on Cached data until you get a popup asking you to delete it. I know it sounds bizarre, but it really worked.
As a last resort you could try amplify as it is good at reducing wakelocks, but to get it running requires xposed as well as entering lots and lots of changes to the phone timings, getting these wrong will stuff your phone! Beware

There's an extremely great guide here on XDA on how to save battery Here check this out
It incorporates Greenify which is used to hibernate apps, Amplify which is to limit wakelocks and many more, personally Ive been noticing a great improvement, I only lose 1% per 8 hours per night of sleep
battery
So I tried everything that you wrote, and last hope was KITKAT, and baterry is little bit better but not enough, barely I can use it one day, so when I am on sleep battery % drops quite fast, about 4% per hour, but when I have screen on I have 20- 25 minute in 10 % of battery. do you think it is battery bad or software bug?
Thank you
So guys i put marshmallow, and when the screen is on all day i have 6 h of SOT, but when it sleeps i have barely 1-2 h SOT, what the hell is going on with my phone
Screen on time measures just that, the amount of time the screen is on. You can drain the battery by playing music all day and get 0 hours of screen on time. It is not and should not be used as an indicator of battery life. Send us another screen shot of your usage statistics

Battery Issues

Hi All
I bought Nokia 7 Plus yesterday and set it up, but the battery drain so fast. I left my phone to sleep with wifi on throughout my sleep it drains 10% with just pushing notifications from FB, like everytime I will get FB Notifications and not open it it will drain 1% of the battery.
Remove fb and see magic
U just answered to your question. It's not the phone, it's just crappy facebook app.
Facebook Lite is the way to go if you need FB, I think - normal version eats battery a lot, and I'm not sure if that will be fixed at all - seems like they don't care.
If you have to use Facebook, use Facebook lite or alternative apps like Friendly.
Hi, I got Nokia 7 Plus yesterday and started using it today. Initially with the battery percentage came with package, battery draining was slow. After doing first charging from 21% to 100%, battery is draining too fast. It is common for some batteries and takes some charging cycles to get battery optimized. If battery draining is happening too fast even after 3 to 5 charging cycles then there would be some fault with battery.

I got my phone day before yesterday & its now running Android 8.1 with the May security patch. Since the time of use, I've charged my phone only twice & both times charged it up to 100%. I feel the batter is draining. Please have a look at the screenshots and let me know if the battery consumption is fine or its draining fast. The battery dropped by 1% in 4 mins of the phone being idle with the display closed. Also the stock camera app is consuming a lot of battery.
I can confirm a very hard drain, too. No way to reach 7-10 hours of usage.
i'm getting about 5-5.5 hours of sot with moderate usage... Checked the app usage..where it shows PUBG used 12% battery in 38 min, 45 min of youtube drain 8% 26min Instagram drain 5%...I don't use fb much on phone when needed i mainly use fb lite... .i don't use auto brightness. so my brightness level is always 45%.. in overnight( well it's like 5-6 hours) battery percentage dropped 4%.. Wifi is always on and GPS is always on high accuracy.. in power saver 19 apps are allowed for background activity...
Battery drain
I just purchased my phone yesterday and used it for some time. I put it on charging at around 20% and didn't use it until full charge. After it got completely charged and then I just used it for few mins it went down 100% to 95% very fast; later after few mins I started suffering net and did misc stuff for about an hour it went down to 85%. Next morning I saw the battery % was 81%. Is this normal? I mean how can it last for 2 day as the company claimed. Aslo I am android 8.1.0

This has been a comman issue with Nokia 7 plus, including me. My battery had high discharge rates in both Oreo and Pie. However, post March security update, I am seeing some good battery life. I would also suggest to update to Pie and update Device Health from Play Store. Hope it works out for you.
try letting the battery drain to 0% then charging it to 100
TA1062 with build 00WW_3_51F here.
Before the march update, the phone could last for almost 2 days with moderate usage.
After the march update, I barely have 5 hours of standby time, and like 2 hour of usage time. This is crazy ! Not heating, but also randomly shuts down while it says like 65% remaining battery. I haven't changed anything else !!!
Does anyone have any idea how to improve this ?
