Battery drain - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys,
I recently got my refurbished htc m7 and updated to lollipop. Now when im on my phone my battery goes like 11% to 5% in 30 seconds or so. Is there any option to get a better batterylife? Im on stock at the moment.
I hope to see your sugestions and your help

It sometimes does mine as well. It shows there's 10-11% left and suddenly it goes down to 1-2% just put it on charge and charge it to 100%.

Battery calibration can do the trick. Idk if it works though because im too lazy to do it to my phone

And how about a custom rom? Can i have better batterylife with that? I want to stay with a sense ROM

[Q] Battery Drain After Updated to Latest official Gingerbread firmware

The battery drains very fast even when I'm not really using it, it uses about 20% of electricity just for 9 hours of idle.
Does anyone have the same problem?
I am also on 2.3.3 and constantly draining the battery completely and charging it several hours past the green light to make the most of the battery, but I still have to kill WIFI and 3G to even get it through ONE day, and that's only standby.
Donno if it was better b4 i upgraded 'cos I only had 2.1 the first day.
Thinking of getting the 3rd-party 1750mA battery, ASAP.
Also hoping the good guys can Root this phone soon, and warriorvibhu makes a swirling fast SUnAaBh-Sense-Rom for it. That would be fantastic!
I absolutly can't say that i have the same problem - actually, my experience is just the opposite.
Try to folow the steps in this post.
Yes there is an issue with the Incredible S dialer using a high amount of battery even while idling. This issue has cropped up after the 2.3.3 update.
The DHD is experiencing a similar issue. No fixes yet. Probably a bug in the ROM.
I just can't understand it. Why can't HTC make firmware that doesn't crave so much power? Don't they betatest at all?
I've tried the jkolner-trick vigorously and got a few hours more, but still not accepting i can't have it on standby for more than 24h. It truly SUCKS!
SO longing for S-Off so i can get the HD-Rom. Damn HTC!!!
Try airplane mode during the night, i went from 10-15% to about 3% overnight.
I had the same issue
Resetting Battery Stats solved my problem.

[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 .

[Q] please help! rooted Starbusrt Rom +1.4 overclock..screen using 80% of battery!

Hi guys,
after flashing the starburst rom and over clocking and several tries to calibrate the battery my battery is still draining a mile a minute. I used the battery calibration app....have let the battery fully drain and charge at least 5 times now and I still can't get back my battery life!
I'm thinking the root of the problem, well...when I go to settings than battery use it says the screen is using between 70-80% of the battery...I am assuming that what is sucking the life out of my battery but I have no idea how to fix it. my screen time out is at 30 seconds...brightness is almost as low as it can get. ITS DRIVING ME NUTS
I am assuming I calibrated the battery correctly cause it does not drain at all when the screen is locked.
please, any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I am ready to rip my hair out!
I just opened battery calibration app its at 70% 4mv isn't it supposed to be like 4000mv? or is just abbreviated?
I just flashed a new rom and still having the same issue!
trying to calibrate the new rom using battery calibration and its barely charging...been stuck on 61% 4mv for about a half hour now..
is it possible that this problem is being caused because I installed the roms with ROM manager and not CWM?
I apologize for what questions may seem dumb...I am a noob....but i have searched relentlessly for answers on this specific problem here with out finding much yet.
disregard that last question..lol..u can see how badly this has my brain turned upside down

[Q] EMERGENCY!!! BAttery draining like a rocket

CAn anyone suggest how to fix battery drain im on fxp Cm 12 02/09 and i turned everthing off and battery on low brightness.Also this happend before on other roms.NEEd a fix please reply fast:crying::crying:
What other ROM's did this happen on? Were they also Lollipop ROM's? I personally experienced this once on CM12, my phone went from 70-ish % to 1% overnight by doing absolutely nothing! My advice is to come back to Lollipop when it is more stable, it's way too buggy right now to be used as a daily driver IMO.

Same here with the battery. I returned to stock 4.3 to see will the problem remains.
i have been using one plus x charger since few days.. battery charges from 14% to 70% in around 30 minutes (with 3g onn!!)
What could be the problem for this? Few days ago i didn't have problems with battery and then suddenly yesterday morning it went to 50%, though i charged it at 100% the night before.

Question Battery drain issue

Hi there, are u guys having battery drain when reach 20%? Like down 1% per second when 20% or lower. I did hard reset but the problem persist.
yes, drains pretty fast even before I could connect to charger it shuts down.
when battery remains around 5 % ,message gets displayed that phone is going to shut down in 30 seconds, like that.
To get automatic call recording I got Indonesian rom flashed in Indian model. I was thinking battery drain might be because of that.
