Ok, this may sund stupid, but i wonder, how bad is the battery drain in lollipop?
Some weeks ago my phone started to shut down at 60% or 40%, dropping down to zero in no time, but if i charge it for 15-20 seconds being turned off, the battery restores to normal, so, its a bug as I think
My phone works perfectly, no over heating, no lag, but the battery is getting quite annoying
Ive read the lollipop was bad due the battery drain, but i still have Kitkat, compilation number 14.4.A.0.108
My battery dies this way:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So i wonder, does the battery gets even worse than this on lillipop?
Should I keep on KitKat or should I try lollipop ?(Via Sony Companion)
Or should I use the repair?
Im unsure to try to install a rom, since , is like partly rooted, says im rooted, but some root functions are disabled (Like writing on system) , besides, my phone is unlocked by carrier, and the last time i installed a rom on a phone like that, i lost the signal (After trying recovering, my Xperia T died forever)

Hello all,
I just wanted to share my experience with my Nexus Battery drain and Google Maps.
I was always complaining about the horrible battery life of Nexus S compared to my previous devices (Xperia X10, Galaxy S, Desire, Hero, etc... some that I bought, loans, tests, etc..)
IMPORTANT: Since the beginning, my phone had a strict sleep policy (on screen off) and the phone was always awake.
I first remarked the battery drain with my battery status was spotting GMaps and I was right.
Just before going to sleep, I uninstalled it and just get a wonderful battery help:

Any explanations?
Any similar experience?
I never had this problem with my Nexus, I just drained the battery a few times when I first got it so it can calibrate properly, I don't know if you have done this yet.
I don't think a battery calibration would explain a Google Maps battery drain, but yes I did it.
I even wipe battery stats 2 weeks ago at 100% power.
Same behaviour here with Google Maps. I am 99% sure that it's the Latitude that keeps updating my position all the time - although I haven't tested it, yet. Latitude should have had a setting for the position update interval.
Hi guys,
I charged battery till fully charged yesterday and I went to flash a firmware upgrade which took about 15 minutes in total and thereafter when my phone restarted, it showed me 39%, a huge 61% drop during this process and I checked the battery voltages in fastboot getvar all and using gsam battery app, it still showed me 4.2-4.3V which is usually a full charged battery. Now after charging a while, it suddenly goes back to 100%, any idea is this normal? This is the first time this is happening.
Hope to get some help and advice around here, thanks guys.
Screenshots after charging over an hour:
Just plugged into charger:

After charging over an hour, suddenly it shows up at 100%
You need to re-calibrate your battery. There are a few different ways I've read people doing it. I usually just let it totally drain, then charge it to full again without messing around with it. You may want to search for a proper method.
Hi guys, like the title says the last couple of days my battery has been really terrible. I'm currently running PAC 4.3 + yank's kernel. A few weeks ago when I installed both rom & kernel I had AMAZING battery life. Like, 24 hours+ and still 20-30% remaining.
Today I listened to music on the way to college for like 15 minutes (screen was off obv), checked my mail and other social networks in the morning when I woke up and again when I reached college. It was around 50% at that time which is crazy for me already. Then I leave my phone on my desk when I go for lunch and when I come back I have only like 23% remaining. While I took the below screenshots, it already down to 19 -.-
Just wondering whether anyone could help me understand these ss? The weird part is that I had really really good battery life a week ago but I didn't change anything much really. Thanks in advance!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Try to update then
After that make a factory reset
Discharged battery completely, charged to 100% with phone turned off, and now battery life is better then ever! After one day it spent 49% [emoji1]
I've had this phone for about a week and this is the first instance where my phone has gone down to 10% battery in the matter in 8 hours with what I can only describe is light use. I get a few emails, most of the time it sits with the screen off. I checked the battery stats and saw Android OS at 21% usage followed by Cell Standby and Screen.
I am rooted at 5.0.1 but stock and encrypted. Only mods I have done is DPI at 493 and double tap to wake.
Anyone else experienced this before?
So I've been having that issue the past couple days too. I installed a program called BetterBatteryStats.
Yesterday I fired it up after having about half my battery drain in a matter of a few hours.
I saw that my deep sleep was about 3 hours, my awake was 8 or so hours but my screen on was only about 1 hour. Something was keeping my phone from sleeping.
I went threw and uninstalled everything I could think of that had either updated or been added since it started and now it seems to be sleeping again so I'd look at installed apps and updates.
