Battery drain over night

Hello, I'm new here. Coming from a Galaxy Nexus, and I'm impressed with this device already.
My question is if it's normal that battery drains around 4 or 5 % over night. I always turn off data, wifi, put it on airplane mode. I also disabled active display, the camera gesture thing and the voice commands.
I think it should be 0% drain :/

Zero drain is pretty much impossible unless you turn it off or own an old school Nokia

(Guessing 8 hours of sleep.) .5-.6 % per hour is great for this phone.
With data (not wifi), active display, gestures and voice commands turned on, plus a few root level changes like greenify, xposed amplify and freezing apps, I achieve around 1 % per hour at idle on stock 4.4.4. This usually equates to around 3 days standby and 1.5 hours of screen time for me.
(I am now testing lollipop... I'm at 1.5 days with 1.5 hours screen time, longer than normal talk time and 30% battery remaining.)

I don't even make it to a day lol. Usually I've to charge at night and then around 7 pm

Here is my sleep running r12 kernel. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59527748&postcount=811 And I don't turn on airplane mode or anything. That is just screen off.

Same problem here (Android 4.4.4, rooted).
Battery drain in flight mode (additionally also tried Moto Voice off, Active Display off, Data off, GPS off without any positive effects) is nearly the same as over the day when using the phone.
The fact that "Stand by" has 25% of all battery usage is a little bit perverted
I'm really happy with Moto X' battery consumption over the day. Normally I have to charge it every second night. But putting to flight mode at 56% when going to sleep and not charging it and finding it at 40% the next morning is kind of frustrating

Install Bettery Guru from Qualcomm, from play store if you run 4.4.x or download the apk from somewhere if you run 5.1+. It will help you reduce the standby drain.

Hmm...doesn't seem to do anything more that I and Tasker do: Deactivate WLAN, Data & Co.
But okay...I'll try that out

From my experience the Motorola SoC has a abnormal high Standby battery drain. You can try whatever you want but you will not get below a certain level like on other phones. Perhaps the contextual cores are never turned off no matter if you use the feature or not, i don't know. At least it gets me trough a day...

Not really, check the screenshot below. For 10hrs ide, it drained 2-3% witch is perfectly normal.
1 square = 1hr

First night on battery

I let it charge to 100% around 1am, unplugged and work up at 730am. Battery was on 85%. No use at all.
During regular use it seems to drain quickly. I've disabled probably 20 apps.

I have my edge since Monday and what you're saying I have not experienced. Post some screen shots of your battery stats so we can have a better idea of what's going on

I went to bed around 1am as well, woke up at 9:30am. I also disabled around 20 apps. Bedtime battery was at 95% wake up battery was at 85%. I dont think thats too bad at all.

I'm pretty happy with my battery life so far

Does Verizon have an immediate ota update like tmobile? I didn't he update right away and seems solid enough. Not as good as my g3, but way smaller of a battery in the edge.

Disable the Amazon App Suite from Applications manager. This has been the culprit for every carrier on the S6. If you use Amazon app store, download it through amazon directly (it is a different app than the one included with the phone).
Your problem will be solved right away!!
Also, the Edge display (not the contact color part, but the clock and news feed) is a battery drain.

another problem with alot of s6 owners, aside from the stock amazon app, is there has been alot of battery drain if using wifi. I had wifi on most of the time and noticed a drain from cell standby... once you turn off the wifi that never comes up and drain is perfectly fine... no cell standby battery drain...

My battery was terrible the first day, ok the second day, and far better today. Seems like it has a time it needs to settle down.

I haven't gotten >3.5 hours screen on time yet. Which kind of stinks.
Disabled a few more apps today, will see if they helps any.
Sure have been getting use out of the quick charging though.

Yesterday my phone took a change in the battery department....

Sorry, I didn't look at that before I plugged it in.

Almost 6 hrs of screenon time use, Netflix for 30 mins...Facebook and texting. Screen set at around 30% brightness. Happy with my S6.
Not disappointed in how short the overall battery is...it does what I want and need it to do.

Yesterday my phone was dead from 6am to 6pm today at 5pm still have 47% left and I definitely used it more today. Better with age?

Hello I just gave my first full charge to my phone and the cell stand by is at the top, is there a way to avoid this or we going to accept to live with it, thanks for your help.

my battery wasn't too bad either

Battery drain

Hello people
I bought z3compact, and I started to have big problems with battery drain, I tried to downgrade on 5.0.2, then tried factory, then 6.0.1 beta, and at least I tried custom rom Lolipop Slim and everytime is same story, I barely had one day battery juice, and when i go to sleep, I lose more than 20% thorough the night, when I go to settings number one in battery using is Cell standby, SOT I have barely 2 hours.
Is there any help, I think the radio is problem.
Thank you very much

Check the mobile radio active time in the apps that show the greatest battery drain. If any of them are more than an hour when you're sleeping, then the big has bitten you. Connect to wifi as a workaround. There's also a supposed fix for the mobile radio active bug somewhere on XDA. Try searching and food luck!

so I tried everything, and the result is that when mobile goes to sleep I have to many wakelocks, around 3500 wakelocks in one night, but when screen is on i have on 10 percent around 1 hour of SOT, please help me

Look at which apps are using the most battery under settings/power management/battery usage.
UNINSTALL facebook, which will be the biggest eater of battery, access it through the webpage
If you have a rooted phone, install AFWall., then restrict whatsapp,twitter,*messging apps* to wifi only, see if that makes a difference. Once you see a difference in batterybehavior, slowly let them back onto mobile data one at a time until you find the culprit (whatsapp probably)
Google Play Services is a usual suspect. Start by turning off synchronise on your google account.
There's a fix for google here.
If you have poor reception of mobile signal in your house, trying turning the phone to GSM.
Settings/wifi/advanced wifi - scanning always available OFF - keep wifi on during sleep ONLY WHEN PLUGGED IN
Research on the BBS thread
If you have a rooted phone download Disableservice from the playstore.
Once it's installed, open the system tab, open Google Play Services, then untick (disable) the following:
ConfigFetchService
FitnessSyncAdapterService
GoogleLocationManagerService
GoogleLocationService
NetworkLocationService
ProximitySettingInjectorService
UserPresenceService
WearableControlService
WearableService
WearableSyncService
then reboot your phone.
Disabling these from running should have no impact on your phone, it doesn't for me, and will give you 10-15% more battery life.
The other thing that extended my battery life was deleting the cached data. Settings\Storage and hold down on Cached data until you get a popup asking you to delete it. I know it sounds bizarre, but it really worked.
As a last resort you could try amplify as it is good at reducing wakelocks, but to get it running requires xposed as well as entering lots and lots of changes to the phone timings, getting these wrong will stuff your phone! Beware

There's an extremely great guide here on XDA on how to save battery Here check this out
It incorporates Greenify which is used to hibernate apps, Amplify which is to limit wakelocks and many more, personally Ive been noticing a great improvement, I only lose 1% per 8 hours per night of sleep

battery
So I tried everything that you wrote, and last hope was KITKAT, and baterry is little bit better but not enough, barely I can use it one day, so when I am on sleep battery % drops quite fast, about 4% per hour, but when I have screen on I have 20- 25 minute in 10 % of battery. do you think it is battery bad or software bug?
Thank you

So guys i put marshmallow, and when the screen is on all day i have 6 h of SOT, but when it sleeps i have barely 1-2 h SOT, what the hell is going on with my phone

Screen on time measures just that, the amount of time the screen is on. You can drain the battery by playing music all day and get 0 hours of screen on time. It is not and should not be used as an indicator of battery life. Send us another screen shot of your usage statistics

Battery life a bit odd? Amongst other things

Hi all, bit of background, I had my Z3c for just over 2 years and 6 months, heard the news about the XZ1c and soon as it was out I jumped at the chance of buying it.
Sadly, I haven't bonded too well with it.
Compared to my Z3c the battery life hasn't been all that good even using stamina. That's with minimal screen on time too. My Z3c used to do almost 2 days, this I can get a day and that's barely! Greenify is in use to kill apps etc.
After a full charge with battery care enabled I'm losing a load of charge and God knows where...!
SwiftKey absolutely sucks on this phone unless I have stamina turned off.
Vibration is bad, I've had to turn it off on the keyboard.
I also want to find a way to mod the stamina mode 3 so it's device performance but kills data too just as per the Z3C.
I'll attach some screen shots too so you can see what I mean... Just a bit disappointed.

Your experience is similar to mine. I have about 30% left when the day is over and that is with having about 2-3 hours of screen time. I turned off the majority of location and updates and keep screen brightness to a minimum. Despite not being as good as what I was expecting, it's better than the Pixel I had before this phone which couldn't make it through my usual 16 hour day without being plugged in.

that an estimated time only, depending on your history use.
but yeah z3c was kinda king with battery... i dont think this one will be. Sna835 is powerefficientier but remember that apps will be alway hungrier too.

It's better than majority of phones on the market... I think the Z3C spoilt us though, it was definitely king, even at its age it still gives well over 36 hours use.

Im having a great time with my xz1c.

My first charge
My first full charge is pretty good 51 hours alive with 5,5 hours screen on time.
I have disabled vibrations when typing, manual screen brightness (most of the time set at about 1/3), sync on all the time, Wi-Fi and LTE enabled all the time

Use gmaps, chrome, played 1:40h heavy game... Im satisfied with it..

The only strange thing I see is high battery drop over night.
It goes more than 10%, I was hoping for 3%. Phone idle battery consumption is on top then. I hope it will change in the future ROMs.
Do you guys see it also?

you can limit an app on background and also limit its data use. make a test: close all aps overnight and see if it changes.

I'm gonna try this, as I'm also seeing a big battery drop overnight. My Z3c used to drop 2% overnight, this drops massively.
I think the stamina mode isn't the same as previous z compact phones. Really really struggling to bond with this phone man lol.

well see if there is app eating your battery in the battery stats. if yes than choose the option on the app to limit it on background. Dont forget to limit its data plan on background too in the data plan menu.
reboot the phone. close all aps and go to sleep.
tell us if something changed.

Lost 2% in my 8 hour sleep.

I've noticed that Google Play Services seems to get the hump if you have any extended stamina mode. When I check app battery usage with stamina mode on, GPS is one of the top users. But not there with stamina mode off. If fact stamina mode seems to use more battery than if its turned off. I need to do a few more charges to confirm.
Battery life is excellent btw, better than any phone I have had before. Regularly getting to three days of use.

I have power mode activated with zx1 compact I disable the vibration jacket and some useless application kindeXXX is still improved battery life

So it's been a few days! So far I've:
- Changed my SwiftKey setting to vibration off,
- stamina mode changes to performance orientated instead of battery life biased like before,
- auto brightness off
- Limited MANY app's background data and background running as above (cheers for that mate)
- priority mode on to alert me of important calls only, everything else just uses the notification light with no sounds.
I'm now finally, because of the above, beginning to see 2 days battery life almost 3 days last week!
Still more to do for good battery like instead of just stamina mode On like on the Z3C but hey I guess I can live with it!

So as happy as I am... Still can't get to the bottom of why it loses the first 10% so fast?! Check this out, taken off charge like just over an hour ago and I've lost 4% already!
From 80% onwards it lasts a good while but damn man why's it losing the initial 10% or so that fast?!

This is my battery life for the last few days, it's been good... But this is doing my head in, losing first 10%so fast...

... And I've lost another 2% since that last post! Ffs man.

Can you tell me what is the Firmware of your device ?

Lost 15% of the battery while my 10hr sleep today. Very strange. My Z3c used to eat no more than 3% without any limitations, closing apps or stamina mode.

Question [Help] SOT

It is my second day with the phone. Exyons version. I charged it 100% and left home at 5pm and here were are 11:40 pm 21% with 2hours 44 mins SOT
How?
4g enabled about 40 mins
I only used camera, google maps, a little facebook and uber.
Bluetooth enabled for the watch and the buds.
No wifi. No nfs.
Adaptive refresh rate and 1080p resolution after it dropped to 60%.
What have I done wrong?

This is very similar to my situation but I have snapdragon version my SOT is not that good get about 2-3 hours with 8 hours of use. I already resetting my phone once I'm currently still going through the learning usage pattern after my reset. Hopefully it improves because I'm hoping that my phone is not defective.

I thought about resting the phone but I have already downloaded about 20gb of games :/
I will wait couple days to see maybe the phone is still learning usage pattern . Please keep us updated if SOT got improved with you

I sincerely advise you to do a factory reset, don't restore any data (except stuff like picture and video) and start again installing apps, don't install everything, just the necessary and check the battery, you will see a big improvement.
start from there and then look at the difference.
different apps can behave differently.
And of course put anything you don't constantly use to deep sleep in battery setting!
I did it and my battery now is totally fine.

Question for you. What is normal battery draining for you. For example, if you leave your phone over night usually how much percent does your phone drop. And how long does it take your phone to drop by 1% obviously this last question depends on what app you're using but ideally on average how long does it take your phone to drop by 1%. The reason I'm asking is Because I kind of want to gage how my phone Is performing compared to others. Thanks!

Yea what's been said above, don't use smart switch and give it about a week to settle in, you will genuinely see an improvement.
Put all apps you don't use regularly/ need notifications from in deep sleep. If you have crap signal at home turn on WiFi calling. Turn off nearby decide scanning in connections.
If you're still struggling after a week, download GSAM as it gives much more detailed stats
I lose around 0.5% an hour overnight on standby

on average I lose 0,6-0,7%/h when the screen is off and an average of 10%/h when the screen is on.
fhd+, bt with smartwatch, location off, mostly on wi-fi (when I'm on wifi I use a Bixby routine to turn off data and switch to 2g but I don't think it makes much difference), lots of apps to deep sleep but not apps like whatsapp telegram and gmail.
anyway, everything depends on your specific use and apps installed but I can say my battery life was half than now when I restored my settings and apps data using samsung stuff.

Thank you. I will do a factory reset and update you guys later

I heard that uwb application is the culprit. Many users reported worst battery life with it. It's something related to 5g ultra wide band. Hopefully future update fixes it. Check below thread on how you can remove it. Not sure what functionality gets impacted by removing it
What is Uwb Application and how do I stop it??
So this morning I noticed this app I've never seen before, Uwb Application hogged 14%. I've never seen it before. What does it do and how do I stop it? I recently installed microg and YouTube vanced? Does this have anything to do with these apps...

FHD+/120hz/5g off/smart things off/ everything else normal
Overnight loss is about 2-3%
From 100% to 99% withing 3 minutes after wake up in the morning. That's turning screen on checking Facebook, or browse news.
My Huawei P30 pro would go 99% probably after 30 or 40 min of morning browsing

To measure battery loss from 100-99 is meaningless. The last several generations of the iPhone have behaved like this but clearly this has no real meaning, Which is more accurate? From that clearly the Samsung is the "least worse". To stay at 100% for an hour is absurd. BS calibration. Similar for the P30 Pro. Overnight loss of 2-3% is par for the course (I lose -using GSAM Pro - 0.6% per hour overnight which is probably very similar to you) So ignore a 1% drop in 3 minutes. It is just a matter of calibration.
Edit - added per hour re the 0.6% to clarify.

iOS is lying about battery percentage. If you see 100% it's in 100-95% range.
Anyway, it has more efficient deep sleep.

Yeah. Shouldn't the battery only be at 100 while it's plugged in? Cause as soon as you unplug it, it's obviously using the battery juice...which means it's no longer at 100.

I'm not sure if these Temps and cpu usage are normal, which I don't feel like it's normal, but every time I pick up my phone My phone is just running at 100% cpu usage. Granted I already reset my phone two days ago and got two full charges in. And my battery says it's still learning usage pattern. I'm not sure if this is part of the learning usage pattern phase.
