Is there anyone else here that experience that the batterytime is max 3-4 hours standby?
No, battery time is more than great. I got my X1 last monday and the first three times I charged the battery to full and then let the X1 with full screen light on. This lastet more than six hours!!! Then the X1 shut off itself. The same at the second charging zyklus. Again more than 6 hours of best screen-light before switching off in cause of less power.
This is the best result I evere had at a PPC
guess you'd have to replace your battery. seems to be buggy.
my battery lasts about 6h+ of video playback (700mb, avi, dvdrip)

Wow,
I'm using Sync and wifi. can i't be because?
I got 4-5 hrs with wifi and bluetooth while streaming with the screen on max brightness. I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT!!!
It's Media Panel
Have you launched the Media Panel?
I noticed that if I used the Media Panel for music playback
the back/battery was getting VERY hot. Not good for its
lifetime . So this Panel consumes a lot of power. I guess
the Xperia developers got some work to do.
Also Wifi needs lot of battery power.
Using both about 4 hours are thinkable.

No, not mediapanel.
Well, i test without Synk and Wifi tomorrow.
That's it. It's Wifi. Having Wifi turned on all the time you
will get these results. It's one of the most battery intense
functions. Only turn it on if you need it. For example,
notebooks with much larger batteries will have much less
runtime (bad english, I know ).
Sync isn't responsible for this. I have an hosting exchange
server running but I didn't notice any effect on the battery.
Hope, I could help.

im able to switch my wifi on for 3 hours then music for another 2 hours and 1 and a half hour calls still manage to have 3 bars left on my phone whats wrong with yours?
the battery on the x1 is insanly good compared to the diamond.
(however, when i was charging it yesterday there was somekind of bug that drained the battery when the charger was plugged in, it did not detect the charger after a while, havent checked what it could be, had msn/skype/wifi and the arc slider open )
edit: softreset solved that problem
the battery of X1 is working fine, 10 hours continues use time (for internet + MSN)
WiFi is something that should be only turned on when you are using it. Same goes with BT too infact.
so my accu holds approx. 1 day with music, Games, wifi, video, but I think the accu is already become better as in start in the normal one use he holds 2.5 days
Wow, 8-10 hours without Wlan!
on 2g i got msn/skype running from morning to bedtime, 3pushmail accounts and normal usage, 2bars left of battery at bedtime so its good.
But. i get strange problems when charging the battery and the phone is on. it seams like when the battery is fully charged, it starts to discharge if i not plug out the charger, this morning when i woke up the phone was off but fully charged, it could mean that the battery was charged, then discharged and shut off, then charged again.
a normal businessday: 230 min phone, 30 mails, 15 SMS, bit Internet ....and the Battery is still alive....it´s good enough for me )
sonox
it,s the poor reception that drains the battery,seeking for a signal most of the time..
Since having the X1... Now 1 week... I would have to say its the best battery life on a WM device I have used...
I get approx 2days of usage without charging... which I think is good.
Cheers
I heve my phone checking for new mail every 5 minutes. Does this consume a lot of battery or is it negligible?

yes it consume a lot of battery, more on 3g than on 2g, if you think its a problem. just increase the time to 30min or so.
I've had the Note through GB, ICS Stunner and now official ICS rom....
Stunner was definitely better for battery than the official ICS rom.
I unplug my phone at 6.30am and put it to charge every night around midnight, with battery usually nagging me to charge it - about 10% or so...
My question is that normal? I use my phone normally, the odd facebook and twitter time, a bit of note taking, internet etc...
is 17/18 hours as good as it's going to get?!
yes 18 hours is good, consider the size of the screen etc and how you use it
Mine dies in 9 hours with Wi-Fi on and Auto Sync on. Is that normal?

I would say yes. WI-Fi on means constant power consumption. Auto Sync on means even more power consumption. Wy do you leave them on? You can synch when you need to and switch Wi-Fi on when it's necessary.

Mine is always on wifi and last about 2 days... ^^''
Stunner averages at 16-17 hours, and most people get 17-18 hours if you look at the stunner thread. The best battery life was on stock GB though, 40+ hours for me (light use)
I would think so too with GB...thats what I'm currently running. =)
Measuring total uptime (from charge to charge) doesn't make much sense IMO,
because we all have different usage habits.
Screen on time, however, is a different story.
Anything less than 4 hours of screen on time is bad in my book.
I'm running the german ICS now and after a few tweaks (autokiller) .. i get 2 days of power :d thats with wifi off at work and at Night .. an hour of playing games.. half an hour of voice Calls and some music listening + web browsing. I'm a happy man
@chasmodo: i do listen to music lots with the screen off so screentime is not an absolute measurement of usage either ...
Cpu states However is a very good representation of usage .. minutes 1400mhz..200mhz..Deep sleep ...

Im using LPY rom and for me thet battery time has actually improved compared to official GB. I keep wifi on 24/7 and 2g mode / powers saving, gps off, so on avarage use of around 8h daily, i get more than 24h in one charge.
Yeah since I've done the flight mode and battery pull my up time is amazing! Been on 9 hours now and lost 30% of charge. Very happy with it..

17 hrs so far and battery at 65%. Auto sync, wifi, gps, BT on. Too lazy to turn that stuff off.
Nothing special just stock ICS.
i can only get 16-20h tops... with texting, some calls, gaming and wifi :/ but i've only made 4 charges to the battery yet, so hope that life time will grow up.
using it for about 10h now, and bat @ 55% runing 4.0.3 german ICS
I get more than a day with moderate use. Lots of wifi, FB, a bit of browsing and gaming, some music, a lot of texting and whatsapp, a few calls and just playing around scrolling between homescreens and stuff. Pretty good to me!
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
I find I get on average 16-20 hrs with good use. It really depends on the screen on time as it sucks up most of the power. White especially uses up the most power on these screens. When I check battery stats I usually average about 3-4 hours of screen on time and most of that is web browsing and checking email. Your mileage may vary if you've got background processes
At idle, I lose about 1% per hour (sometimes less if i disable wifi/data/gps/sync). So theoretically I could get over 4 days in idle. With the display on constantly I would guess it would use 15-20% per hour. If you're playing a cpu intensive 3d game you can probably double that or more!
I found cpuspy really helpful in diagnosing battery issues. I was suffering from the deep sleep problem when I moved to ICS LPY (the sounds off/airplane mode/reboot fixed it). The cpu never went to sleep so was eating up at least 5-8% per hour. It might not sound much but if I forgot to recharge the phone at night I would end up with a dead phone in the morning!

Those are still good numbers but from those pics your posted, where the graph goes up it looks like it was charged partially at least twice. Connecting it to any usb will charge it. The battery hours display only resets when it has been fully charged.
Over 24 hours

Is anyone else getting severe battery drain when listening to music from their bluetooth headphones?
Without listening to music via bluetooth, I can get around 8-10 hours of SOT but once I begin listening to music via bluetooth, i can only get 4 hours.
The battery drain is intense and I don't think it's any other app causing the issue. The battery drains much, much faster on standby when listening to music.
I've searched around and keep seeing answers online about people saying that listening to music via bluetooth shouldn't have too much of an impact on their battery life. However, this ~50% battery decrease is worrying me.
Is anyone else facing this issue? Or does your battery drain at the same speed with and without listening to music via bluetooth?
Just today I noticed my device runs very hot and Bluetooth eats more juice than the screen. I've had the phone for almost two weeks and it's the first time this happens. I'm sure rebooting fixes it but obviously I shouldn't need to do that
No problems here. Could be the player you're using?
When connected once to a device, after disconnect, the Bluetooth logo show like the phone is still connected and drain battery. Simply cut Bluetooth and reactivate it.

I just use spotify... shouldn't be much of an issue right? spotify didn't drain my battery that much on previous phones, the only difference now is that I use bluetooth to listen with this new phone and headphones.
If its not much of a hassle, is it possible for you to tell me a bit more about how you use your bluetooth headphones? What do you do with your headphones on your phone, how long do you use your headphones with your phone and whats the battery drain like?
Thanks!
Don't have any issues using Deezer hardly makes any difference when using wired for battery usage
I listened to Spotify on Bluetooth headphones for a half hour walk to work and the battery stayed at 100%

haha its pretty hard to do on a normal day because I pretty much need to listen to music!
But when I'm not listening to music my usage is basically just Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, Discord and Reddit lol
Try changing the bluetooth audio codec in developer settings, see if that has any effect on your experience. Hope you get it sorted

It's impossible to change bluetooth codec. It just defaults to aptx when connected to my bluetooth headphones and I can't change it.
I have the same, buetooth drains battery like a mofo, both with Spotify and Pocket Casts on already downloaded content.
Hi folks.. facing a lot of battery drain issues.. mostly it had to do with social network apps .. bit in general the battery y efficiency in emui is not that great.. pls share your thoughts and tricks to lower battery consumption ..

I do have what's app and Instagram apart from the other two that you mentioned .. my general use is of 3.5 to 4 hours per day but by the end of day the battery dies..so my question is should I stop background running apps? I have around 30 to 35 apps installed on phone..
I got this tips for battery longevity..
Also, don't put phone on vibration mode...it consumes battery...either silent or sound..
Attached
1) get charger alarm and set it to 80%
2) disable uselesa background apps.
Thats it.
I charge to 80% every morning, despite having 4G volte + data 24/7 with upto 2 hours calling, 30mins-60mins gaming, 1hr+ chatting, 30mins+ 9gag, 30mins youtube...
Mine phone still stays around 35%...when I check next morning
Data (4g), location, auto synch are ALWAYS turned ON
(Yesterday my totol usge was 5.5hours with 1hour gaming (fortnite)... My battery was at 25% when i checked this morning)
I recently bought the honor play but have found the battery usage to be higher than I would like at night during standby. I leave my phone connected to wifi and 4g (although 4g is not on when wifi is) and I noticed that the phone wakes up a lot during the night. It seems that it mostly wakes up more often when on wifi as when on 4g during the day there are far fewer wake up events. So to solve this problem I'm using tasker to disable wifi, deny all network activity (excluding calls), bluetooth and auto sync for me during 11:30pm and 7.30am. The result is that the phone barely wakes up at night now and I am getting 2-3% battery drain over 8 hours instead of 10-14%. So I would recommend doing this, as it seems to improve battery life. There may be other apps that can do the same thing but I like the interface and usability of it over something like automate.
Edit: I would also recommend leaving the standard power saving mode on all the time as it doesn't limit performance but just limits background activity. However, this does disable auto sync, but then you could just set auto sync to turn on at set intervals using tasker, at least that's what I'm doing.
Hey there, so recently I got a Note8 since my mom switched to a Galaxy Note20 Ultra and she gave me her old phone since I had a J3 before. She had it for 2 years and now when it was given to me I found some extreme battery draining issues, I watched MrWhoseTheBoss' video and in 1 hour the Note8 drained to 91% however in 1 hour MY Note8 drains to about 60%-40%. Also when I'm not using it the battery drops like I'm playing Asphalt 8. Any solution to this? I checked battery usage and nothing is out of the ordinary. The highest usage is Instagram at 2-hour drops 20% but I only use it at night and this battery problem is during the day. For most of the school, I keep it in my pocket and only use to listen to music. The battery still drops extremely fast. My friend has an S8 and his battery is much better than mine.
All I need to know is if this is a software issue, or a hardware issue as the battery sometimes runs out and I boot it up to 15% or something close to that.
If it's a software issue please help me down in the comments, I have turned off location, limited CPU speed to 70%, and disabled background usage.
Thanks.

This is normal in my opinion. Even if the battery was only a year old, I'd say that is normal without proper power management.
My note8 is the same and the owners they had it before me, i don't know how much they played games with it, but how much i know about tech my note8 have never changed that battery and never was open back cower and the battery is still good up to two days average use, but i don't use apps like twitter, Facebook, Instagram or any social apps, only Viber that's all, the twitter, Facebook, or other thing i check on web-browser and that why battery should bee good.
The apps i mention up, i consider them partly spyware, battery-mongers, personal data movement mongers.
Btw, make a screenshot of your phone screen,\battery usage after the battery has drain to about 20% so we can see if we can have any conclusion to it, and pres this code (*#21*#) and call in keypad, make screenshot to see if someone is lurking on that phone on background.
