Hello,
I own this device for more than a year now and suddenly my battery doesn't last nearly as much as it used to. This wasn't the case a month ago.
It just started happening out of nowhere. Nowadays I am getting 2 hours of SOT (3 if I am really lucky).
The battery stats give the highest % consumption to android system.
I tried searching the web for a solution but to no avail. Many recommend a factory reset to fix but I can't get myself to do that because I use this phone 99% for work.
Can you guys help me even slightly improve the battery life of my phone?
Thanks in advance.
Hi , something eat your battery.
Better Battery Stats (from xda) let you find what can be guilty.
You can delete cache and data only for this application.
If this is autostarted app, you can use sd maid for block autostart possibility.
If the guilty is a system part, factory reset or installing android again can be the only option.
I was facing the same issue on my Xiaomi. After applying these fixes, my battery life is normal now. You can try these solutions.

Phone: Moto G2 XT1068
ROM: Stock MM (final)

Xposed + GravityBoxMM
Like many on MM I have been getting the dreaded 'Google Play Services' service draining up to 20% of my battery. It didn't start straight away but developed over time.
After extensive log combing and forum trawling, the best I could find was to disable some of the sync services I didn't need in my Google account. This only helped a little.
I was all ready to factory reset and perhaps try a battery friendly ROM such as AOSP, when the thought occurred to me to try wiping my cache first, so I did.
It was like getting a new phone. It's now more responsive (I hadn't noticed that it was laggy until the lag was gone, so it can't have been that bad) and the mystery battery drain was gone. Yesterday I plugged it in before going to sleep with 38% remaining and more than 2 hours screen on time. Google play services wasn't even on the list of battery eaters.
This might not work for everyone, but it's an easy thing to try.
[TL;DR]
Wipe your cache in TWRP, it might make things a whole lot better.
I'm having some problems with battery drain and also with high CPU warnings because of google play services. Everything is up to date. The warnings seem pretty random, and the battery drain some days in none existant, but the following day it will lose 20% in a couple of hours on standby and otherwise unused. I have cleared the cache, I have cleared the cache and data for all the google services I could find. I have deleted my 3 google accounts and re-added them.
Deleting the data and cache from the apps does seem to help, temporarily, but in a few days the problem is back.
My Note 8 is the Exynos UK version.
Does anyone else have these issues and is there a fix? My Mrs has the same thing happening on her S8.
Thanks.
Same Issue on my Note 8
This issue started 2 days ago, it's completely drained my battery and when i usually have 40% left at the end of the day, my battery was dead by 3 PM which is ridiculous. Checked the battery usage and Google Services is taking a massive amount of battery. Any idea of the cause? The drain slows when i put it on power saving mode i need this fixed!
Following :|
People in household with note 8 and s7 both having issue. Worse, device maintenance allows you to close Google play services via a notification which disables many functions for the non technical user.
Hopefully a fix is coming.

Some things to try with problematic Apps/Battery issues:
i) Clear Data/Cache of Apps in Settings/Apps
ii) Try newer builds of Apps from apkmirror
iii) Clear Cache from Recovery
iv) Factory Reset device.
Running in background notifications don't necessarily equate to 'using vast battery resources' Install Better Battery Stats from the store to find out what's really going on.
After updating to 9.1.0.252 I noticed faster battery drain. Did any of you experience the same behavior? I'm thinking to go back to 9.0.1.
Thanks
I feel the same

Don't forget that our device/battery is getting older with every update?.
It might look like new but mine is already 2 years in use.

I noticed faster battery drain on my ltr-09 as well. All is fine now. I noticed when i first upgraded location was turning on alot almost like it was learning when to turn on. Then it levelled out. Example opening google now at first it always turned on my gps now it doesnt. When i was on 9.01 i left my phone on battery saving for gps. You cant on 9.1 and i have seen alot of apps that used to be good with battery saving location now going for full with gps. Big bttery drain. Those were the differences i found. What I believe solved my battery drain was actually my battery getting all screwed up. I had this happen when i would switch roms and my battery stats would get all messed up. I solved it before and solved it this time with my p10 by running the thing right dead. Then pluging it in overnight with it turned off (no fast charging) Then I did it again the next night drained to dead , plug in charge with off ( no supercharging) and my battery life is better again. Hope this helps. EDIT After a few days of testing i still felt the battery was better but battery life still wasnt right. I did a factory installed minimal apps. Battery life was good until play store updated carrier services. I uninstalled updates to carrier services, disabled auto update. Then i actually disabled carrier services completely. Battery seems good now. From what i read carrier services is for next gen texting. Saw online others were having issues with this update.

Wrong, batteries get older with time and charging cycles. Updates have nothing to do with it and if you notice a drain right after one - it has nothing to do with the condition of the battery, it's the update's fault.
updates are huawei's way to convince you to buy a new phone
first they borked the camera, now they are messing with battery
I managed to improve battery life a little bit by disabling apps running in background and disabling unnecessary location permissions for several apps like @bigshowjh said. Like @bigshowjh said I found apps resetting their permission or settings after update. Still the battery life is not like it was before updating with the same usage behavior.

I have ran a couple of days with very good battery life. 11.5 hrs with 62 percent left. Seems like it used to be with Oreo. Overview of all I did was as follows. Clear cache partition, factory reset . Uninstalled Google Chrome (used Firefox instead) set carrier service to factory in apps three dots advanced. Disabled automatic update of carrier services in play store, then in settings apps disabled carrier services completely. Went through and disabled network access to every app that doesn't need it. I don't use Facebook or Facebook Messenger apps. I use them through my browser. Oddly chome on pie is a battery killer as well. I'm very satisfied with proformance of my P10 again.
My GPS is pretty much always off (unless I really need it) and the battery level still goes down by 9% during the night. It used to be 3-4%.
I cannot find carrier service anywhere.
In my case I can't see power hungry apps in the stats, standby process uses the most energy.

Settings, apps, apps again, select three dots in upper right, select show system processes. You will find it there it's a little hidden lol.
Still no carrier services for Play Store.
Hello everyone!
I recently bought the Samsung A33 5G, but I'm having battery problems and I don't know what it could be.
Using, for example, WhatsApp or Twitter I spend approximately 3% every 5 minutes using Wifi and with the brightness at 20%.
I have monitored the battery with apps like Battery Guru and AccuBattery but I have not seen anything strange. I have also tried to wipe the cache partition from the recovery and repair the apps but it has not improved either. I've also disabled battery optimization (seen it on reddit and some have found it helpful) but it still doesn't get any better. I replaced the phone but the problem persists.
Somebody can help me?
Thank you!
Battery consumption is strongly dependent on the size and type of screen, services used, distance from the GSM mast. There is a long way to go to get your phone to use less battery. For starters, try using a Wi-Fi connection for a while, without using GSM. The next step is to turn off LTE/5G and stay on a slow but less draining 2G/3G battery.
By the way, disable unnecessary services with Debloat Tool, mainly updates and sending notifications by applications that you do not need.
