What really is up with Android phone and their battery life. This been bugging me for like forever and its 4:00 AM and i have to post.
Like my sister had s7 edge and just the general messenger apps IG, WhatsApp, telegram & Weechat. Rest are game for toddler. But all the time the phone been with her, her average SOT is like four hours and the BATTERY KEEPS ON DRAINING on Wi-Fi or Data and NEVER flats out. It only does when in airplane mode. Before you guys days uninstall the games, in the battery usage graph same with GSAMbattery, Android system is like up all the time. So it has to do with Android OS.
is Android really just like this? Do iPhones person better?
I have EXACTLY the same issue with my nexus 6 rooted. When my wifi is up, none stop drain and BBS doesn't show any unusual activity.
What going on guys?

With 4 hours screen on time that is about what you can expect. Mainly when using things like weechat which is notorious for uploading all it data over and over again to its servers in China. Then you have whatsapp which is done by facebook which are known for some of the worst coded apps for battery drain in the market.
Your biggest issue is the screen on time. $ hours is a bit ruff on a device. As the screen is the biggest thing to take up battery. Unlike the iphone which uses a less intense screen due to its lower quality res.

Bro, you should use an iPhone and see! It's much worse than Android. iPhone have less size batteries and you can hardly get through the entire day with one charge according to your usage. Although apple's implementation of background apps optimization is excellent, but still the battery life is less due to small batteries. I feel android is much better in terms of battery.

Totally agree.
You can add that android is still an open system which allows you to hard modify the system, apps behavior, etc.. So you can set your device especially for your daily use.
For example, the way I set my 2yo-phone gives me 8 to 10 hours SOT, which is faaaar from any Apple devices autonomy..

It's not especially the screen which tumble down the battery energy, not as much as touching it. Which will litterally eat your battery life..
So my question is, can the voice detection+voice commands be less energy-consuming than the touch-sensitive commands ? (while keeping an active detection)

Bro, its time you pull up your socks. Root your phone and enjoy a whole lot of new features and performance. Our's is one of the best development on xda and you have plenty of options to choose from. All The Best. Hope to see you in the threads around!'

No it's really mostly just the screen being on. You can test this by setting the device screen to never time out and let it sit. You will notice that it kills the battery.

If Weechat and Whatsapp were responsible for the drains, why don't they show up on battery usage as top drainers?
It's always Android System

That is generic which means apps system api or systems the app uses. Like say the LG tones app. It uses the system BT api and if it drains the battery then all you see is BT at the top.
After years of trial with all sorts of applications to kill apps, battery /juice saves, my ultimate solution on Samsung alpha, 1800amph only battery is conjuction of Greenify, follow up with SD Maid. Alternate day.
Excellent results. I'm rooted.

I'd say that you either have a battery that is past it's useful life, or you have some serious wakelocks going on. 2-2.5 hours SOT is awful. I bought my device used 9 months ago and can easily average 6-8 hours SOT over the course of 48 hours on battery (on stock 7.0 unrooted). I'm only now seeing a lower SOT with this current update to Google Play Services. And even now I still get 5-6 hours SOT in 48 hours.

I know the reason for my bad battery life. It's my signal. Signal here is spotty and if you leave town you lose signal all together. So my device spends most of the day looking for a stronger signal. SOT really doesn't mean much to me.

Ah yeah, well there is that as well. Have you tried turning off LTE and preffering 3G? I've found that helps in some fringe areas.

Yeah I normally keep late off. It doesn't help really. Signal is just too spotty. You can bounce between 2g,3g and lte in 5 min and never move. Then you have the times when the military blocks all GPS and unless you heard the announcement and turned GPS off that would also kill your battery. Then like I said once you leave town you have no signal for hundreds of miles.

We would need more info before we could really explain it. For starters though it looks like bluetooth is sucking the life out of your battery. Do you have something connected to it currently?
As far as my screen on time goes, im on the pixel rom with no addons and i get 4 hours screen on time

How is 6-8 hours sot possible over 48 hours? I've tried different kernels, lineage/CyanogenMod, Pure Nexus, greenify, and even tried down clocking the CPU to 1.2 GHz or less at all times (shockingly, in normal use I couldn't tell the difference lol). Never got that much screen on time. I'm not even sure airplane mode would do that. My best was around 45 hours, but with about 3 hours of screen on time. And that was with the phone being less than 3 months old.
Currently I'm on stock Android, and getting 20 hours at best with 3 hours sot. At this point, I will say my battery is shot since it is a year old. But I'd love to see your settings and see if I could get close.

Here are screenshots of my battery use from March. 3 days with 6.5 hours SOT. I keep my screen at a relative 20% or so (lower at night). I have very strong signal (major city) And I use wifi about 65-70% of the time. I also actively moderate my screen touches (yes, they do indeed matter). I turn off NFC and I don't use BT. I also actively purge misbehaving apps (I refuse to install some, like Facebook) Other than this, I can't really say. Perhaps, I just lucked out and got a cherry of a system (with the exception of my headphone jack not working with mics...Grrr... and my camera's image stabilization Causing blur at certain shutter speeds)
Hi all,
As the title suggests, please post your screen shots of your max SOT and I'll update the leaderboard with the top 10.
I'll post my max to set it off, bare in mind please, this is only for normal usage not for leaving your phone plugged in all day with reading mode on, this is only for real world usage.
Averages are about 8 hours on the OnePlus 5 but some average a lot higher, myself I normally get between 8-10 hours however on occasion (usually when on the internet researching ) I'll crank up some crazy SOT, my highest being what I'll post below.
***NOTE***
To qualify, post your battery meter showing depletion and a long screen grab of your stats from the stock battery monitor, also post your ROM and version as well as your kernel and version, as i'll show below.
No cheating.
If you want to drop your BBS stat file then please feel free although it's not needed to register your SOT score. Personally i don't give two hoots about this, it's complete overkill so don't feel obliged to record it.

Well sir, that is stupidly good.
Well played.
Have to say I've got the p20 pro with a 4,000Mah battery, can't come close to the 1+5.
That being said, I completely believe you but without proper proof it's a little hollow..
I'll put you up for now but will need a repeat.
What ROM, kernel??
How do you guys manage to get such high SOT? Talking specifically to @dladz, have you selected anything in particular while installing xXx like those features in AROMA to enhance battery?

No not really, i've not got this phone anymore i've just sold it but the settings are pretty much stock.
Turn off gestures, live widgets.
i only have one page on the pixel launcher.
No apps with ads in them, 1 gmail account nothing else, no facebook, no viber / skype / work email / snap chat
I only use whatsapp and twitter now and again.
4G, Wifi, location i always leave on.
No google photos, no automatic updates, no bloat unless what i need.
Auto brightness on, Stock kernel, No xposed, Black theme.
No antivirus, no back up facility, tweaked google to not collect so much data, deny most apps location unless required.
No overclocks or underclocks, no CPU / GPU governor client.
basically just lighten the load as much as possible, bare in mind that i don't always get 14 hours, i mean that's insane, i was doing a lot of reading online that day and it just clocked up the hours, i was amazed when it went past 10 hours with around 20-30% left.
Your battery is going to depend on your usage and your apps.

What are you using now? I bought a pixel 2 xl and had to return it to the original seller. The pixel 2 xl software is amazing but the hardware is trash. Build quality isnt worth that premium price everyone paid for when it first released.

It's in my signature, the P20 Pro, it's a pretty special device tbh.
Camera, battery, screen, performance is all amazing.
The only problem is the development lol it's a little light on ROMs, although the stock image once you're rooted is actually very good, I can change any aspect of the ROM and I'm completely fine with it
The only problem I've got is with the variants (models) available in the world, there's so many of them and lastly Huawei have decided to stop allowing bootloader unlocking which for many is a deal breaker, it hasn't happened yet but it will in the coming weeks
As I've already unlocked mine its ok.
My colleague in work has the pixel 2 which he loves, camera is excellent, plus I'm guessing the development scene is pretty strong, I'm not a fan of their design though.

Yep, it's not bad, just sold my 1+5 on Swappa for $340, tbh it's in great condition it's been my favourite phone up til now by some way, the only thing that ever bugged me was the lack of OIS which when you go back to a phone that has it like the p20 pro and even my previous device (HTC 10) you realise how important it really is.
Beyond that the OnePlus 5 is for me still their best device, reason being is the battery Vs screen size /Res, the 5T had a higher resolution and larger, the 6 I think even higher and even larger, yet the battery is the same so the SOT's you're seeing here just won't be possible, not even close.
I know the 845 is meant to be even more efficient but it's not going to be enough to compete here, unfortunately.

Ah glad you found something you like. As much as I like my OnePlus 5 I feel like I need an upgrade as well. It's a solid phone in my honest opinion. I'm looking into the V30! I've heard a lot of positive input about it (except for the FFC). I don't take selfies much so that might not be deal break for me.

I've never had an LG phone, but i've seen my colleagues disappointment after the novelty of the camera wore off, it's the UI it's just not great tbh.
But it's up to you man
Oh well, compared to you guys 11 hours I didn't get all that high but still very impressed as i did use Google Maps navigation for quite a while and YouTube for 5 hours.. It managed 7 hours and 58 minutes with 4% left. Could easily go 8h+.
This is done on stock latest AEX (Aosp Extended) with a amoled friendly theme .
Are people noticing any improvement or worsening?
It's been a lot better for me
Battery life for me is ok, with the official installed for the last 4 days. I'm upto 6 hrs sot on my usage and intend to leave it on charge overnight to complete any optimisations that may have not been done.
The call screen number flashing bug is still there though, but no other issues for me as yet.
i dont know guys... its lottery? i went down from 7h SOT to 2h... i did full wipe ect... i heard a lot of people that said it its better for them with battery and a lot of people saying its even worse than oreo

I'm having about the same batt life as I had with Oreo, but I've upgraded to Pie 2 days ago, so I'm hoping it will get better in about a week when the OS settles down and I'm done with setting it up. I've always had the idea that after a major OS upgrade, it keeps doing a lot of things in the background, making it use more battery than expected. For iOS this is even verified by Apple, but I don't know about Android.
Im used pie for about 2 weeks now.
For me, battery usage for idle is better, im got better standby time than oreo, but once im start using it, it drop faster than oreo. Phone also feel little more hot than on oreo.
Im got battery leakage last 2 days and then i realised that putting video wallpaper on lockscreen eat the battery alive even screen is turn off.. Its just still played in background.
Im got constant 6 and half hour of SOT on pie and 7 hour SOT on oreo (from 100 to 20%) of my battery. I
Im not heavy user, just used chrome and facebook only. No games.
So far, phone is more responsive on pie but never been lack on oreo.
However, im monitor my battery charge capacity with Aida64, im got 3139 mAh on pie and 3220-3298 on oreo. Its seems its limit to 3139 only now for my phone.
By the way, im used Note8 with exynos processor.
Pretty much the same as on Oreo on my N950N running Pie.
Note 8 battery much better with pie...... Verizon
I was expecting the same like for years new update new battery drain. This is the best a battery has ever done. I use my phone alot I have stopped background data for the battery hungry apps. With device care. I set it to see a week at a time. I only done this with Facebook and messenger and chrome. Even before it's been great for me I hope that all of you get better battery life. I know it's hard to do things when you have tug battery charger.
Pie is a joke don't update you will thank me
oreo it's a lot better, but i use custom kernel on pie, "phantom kernel" and my battery life it's a lot better even better than oreo with stock kernel.
Not bad.
Some people here hating on pie, more power to you, but I've only had one minor bug with the sound "popping" in the "My Noise" app, turning off Wifi during use fixes it. Also, all the benefits such as Good Lock, Bixby Routines and dark mode more than make up for the one minor bug I have. FWIW I am on Sprint and Snapdragon model.
Curious. Considering updating soon. Need help manuals. OTA keeps saying "processing failed"
Before April I was getting 6hr sot. While not the best, it's not the worst either, but definitely could use improvement.
I'm comes the April update, and after like 4-5 days I'm noticing better sot, by quite a bit. So I continue to keep checking battery life, doing the same routine daily, so I get a correct reading, and sure enough, I was getting 8hrs sot avg. I normally start charging at 15%, so I pushed it to 8% and reached 9.5 hrs sot, and over the month I still stayed at this same battery.
I was very very pleased and was bragging on Samsung really big time.
So up comes this may 2022 update, and sadly, my battery life dropped back to 6hrs sot.
So it got me to thinking. I've heard people say the battery takes time to settle in after an update, so is that true for "all" updates, or just a like major os update? Because if it's all updates then the battery don't have time to ever settle in really, because we get monthly updates.
The may 2022 update was pretty much just a security update.
So should I just give it time? Or am I destined to be stuck with the 6hrs sot vs the 8hrs I was getting?
same issue
For me the May update has been the same as April update...Well, as I had mentioned earlier, Samsung manages to hit the bell curve in terms of battery life with every update....
Did you find any fix to this?
mines been absolutely horrible since
I'm getting an iPhone in September,fed up of unreliable battery all the time
Did you guys wipe cache after update? I did that and also I enabled 'Suspend execution for cached apps' in developer settings and it seemed to help a lot.

Have done all of the above and 0 difference
Hi there 10 pro users
I don't know if you all noticed but i started with oos 13 a couple weeks ago without root i had it on QHD 120hz it was pretty good to use battery latest very long lasting and always 8 hours sot so that was pretty good to have until i started to root it again wanted to check out somethings but then the horror started couldn't reach no more the 8 hours sot it was reduced to 4 hours even heavy drains sometimes drops in Hz to 1 found out that it is found in there kernel source too they are trying to prevent root or this device needs a hell of a kernel dev who can fix all this or enjoy the device how you like and how you want too use it. And to be honest my opinion don't root it you will have more fun with your device since this is dead in development
I have posted some pictures below the one with 8 hours sot was before root the rest of the pictures after root
Hi, but there is a difference...
Your screen time is not the same, so the comparison is not valid.
I'm rooted and have not noticed a drain on the battery... I have heavily debloated though.
My apps list in battery doesn't show anything anymore but this is one charge.
I didn't just leave it with the screen on either lol. But have been reading a lot on chrome.

That's oos 12 and seems that you don't even use the device this is not your daily driver

Are you sure the one of 8 hours was the first time I had oos 13 installed even wiped it set it up with something's a few apps what ik using but after I wanted it too root found out that they want too prevent it so my CPU where locked and this only happens in oos 13 but in oos 12 I didn't had that much problems with root but still it's a heavy drainer device

OnePlus 10 pro? Is my daily phone...
I've had oos 13 installed and went back, I have all the relevant information to advise..
No idea what you're talking about lad

Well you switched back so you know what I'm talking about but what did you debloated and what did you use to downgrade ?
But for now my battery is like this I have franco kernel manager running without root and setup with adb commands I have a drain right now of 0.90 but it doesn't seems to add up to my first 8 hours sot

It's subjective based on user, location, network, apps etc..
I've already advised in other threads what I've done in detail.
Rolling back AFAIK there is only one way and that's the rollback package found in the beta thread.
Debloat from the debloat thread.
I average 10 hours at least and I use my phone all day long 7am to midnight most days.

Same. I regularly only have to fully charge this device once a day. It'll last me easily from morning to night on a full charge with moderate use throughout the day. With added streaming / gaming on a lunch break, if I don't sometimes I can even get away with two work days (around 1.5 days) on a single charge.
The battery is definitely good, just need to use your system wisely, like with most tech. The fact that it charges to full in about 25 minutes is just gravy.

Yea mines about 2 days ish.. if I'm on citra or an emulator then sure it'll be a lot less but gaming on lunch will still see me through the day.
Charging is insane on this phone, not 100% if it's good for the battery or not.
Thermals for me were higher on oos13 hence why I switched back, I do prefer the look and feel of 13 but it annoyed me to have extra heat during gaming etc.
Haven't tested C.21 yet, but have heard good things.
Hi, I don't agree with the fact that root is draining battery. I am on oos13 since the first day of stable build and now on C21, rooted with xposed and 4 modules running and didn't noticied any différence with and without root. Maybe loosing a bit with xposed but I still managed to get 11h of sot (wifi and a lot of reading) and average 6h on mobile data. Also the phone is debloated.
@dladz i used to charge my phone with old 20w op3 block (no need of full speed, and trying to save battery life) but the few times I used the 80w I didnt noticied more heat on C21 than on oos12. But I don't use m'y phone while charging and always put it in airplane mode. If you want I can try some scénarios while charging and send you températures to compare

Just run a heavy emulator like Aetherx2 running lets say Tekken Tag Tournament..
I noticed C20 throttle but not A17.
I haven't noticed c,21 as I've never installed it... Fair bit of work to get back to how I like my phone.... Plus a few mods that don't work on 13 yet

Ok i will try it. By throtteling you are just looking if the phone start lagging or testing with an app like '' cpu throtteling test ''?
I know you were talking of c20, I was saying that just for you to have some data/feedback of c21 si you don't have to try it yourself, if I can help. But yes if some of your mods don't work on 13 I understand why you are staying with 12

Ah cheers man.. You'd don't have to do that, but I appreciate it..
Then again it'd be nice for you to get Aetherx2 running.. Reckon you'll like it..
Throttling as in the device getting hot then cycling down the CPU to save it from overheating.
I noticed the dips in performance plus the heat was substantially higher on 13 than 12 just from memory.
Maybe some other heavy games could emulate this test too
