[Q] Severe Battery drain.. :( :( - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I have a very weird issue with my play.
It is having a very horrible battery life, the battery drain is so fast i cant even use it for 4-6 hrs also.
This issue got started after I flashed XPACman-zeus-v3 ROM.
Earlier i was having ICS rom and it was working nice but now after flashing PACMAN JB rom this got started.
After this issue i tried ICS rom again and also GB roms but same issue going on.
Please help me out with this.
Thanks.

Try Battery Calibrator from the play store.

does battery calibration worked? did u fix your problem?? i will try it

I have the same problem, calibrated with Battery Calibrator but no hope, so I bought a new battery and everything works well again. The tech guy told me that a phone battery is in good condition for only 1 year plus / 1000+/- charge cycle, after that you'll face battery drain and lots of battery issues like shut down even it has 20% battery (my case). Calibrate it, if problem still exist, buy a new battery, it isn't expensive anyway

i was facing the same problem..i fixed it with reset to factory data setting. i don't sure if this will works on your device but it works fine on my Play.

[Q] HELP!! S-off device has battery drainage problems due to Android OS

Hi there,
so i gotta HTC one x last week, my first android..and I've gotta say that so far im hugely disappointed.
The phone has been draining battery like crazy ever since I got it. I've been charging it more than I've been using it, while it runs for no more than 4 hours when fully charged and heats up quite quickly. The battery usage options shows that the battery is being used mostly by Android OS and Android systems (over 85% for the former).
My friend suggested that i install a custom rom because it might be that the OS is corrupt. I bought the phone brand new and it came packed with an ICS stock rom. In the recovery mod the phone states that it is an S-off, with a CID #111111.
So i flashed the phone last night and installed a Jelly Bean Bindroid rom but the problem still persists. The phone drains the battery even when on stand by.
The phone runs fine besides the battery running out way too quickly issue.
Could anyone please help me with deterring what the cause of this problem might be and if the S-off thing has anything to do with it? and if so, how can I solve this battery problem? could it be a hardware issue?
Please help me. Im a NOOB at this!!!
Thank you in advance.
Might be a faulty battery. Look for a replacement OEM battery.

Check task manager too see which apps are running. Disable background sync if it's enabled, delete htc sense account if you have added it in account settings (it's a real battery hog).
Also, try to charge the phone to 100% battery 2-3 times and then check the battery performance.
Use BetterBatteryStats (search on here for the apk and instructions on how to use it).
Or, factory reset.

[Q] Xperia S Jelly Bean overheat and battery drain

Well, hello everyone I'm having this problema with my xperia s since I got the Jelly Bean update the battery drain really fast firt I thought it was firmware thing since in some parts of the world there was alreay the .211, so yesterday I decided to put a ROM (this one) and results that my xperia starts to overheat and battery drain even faster that in .200 firmaware, I just want to know (or if there is any solution) who else is experimenting this problems. I had a hard case my GF told me to take it out, cause a friend of her had the same excat problema also I read on internet that its normal when OS update to have problems with the battery drain that the solution was to charge the phone to 100% and the let it discharge to 0% and then repeat the cycle 2 or 3 times more, but im not compleatly sure about that, what can you tell me? Thnx in advance and sorry for my bad english.
cheers

it takes 2-3 complete battery drain to complete charge for a rom and kernel to become stable with your rom if that rom still causes ur phone to heat and battery drain...try this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2263625 and if u have unlocked ur bootloader go for this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2309770
Heat and Battery drain
First of all I don't think that the Hard Case has to do anything with this..
secondly in the Initial stage, the ROM gets to settle down and uses lot more energy causing the phone to heat and draining battery..
P.S. you may find more relevant answer in the ROM thread that you've installed. try searching it there... :good:
I am also facing the similar issue. I have installed some custom ROMs, however my battery showing mysteries.. draining is very very fast!!!
5% per min.

[Q] SGW I8150 drain battery very very fast after i flashed it with CM-10.1 alpha6

i just flashed my samsung galaxy wonder to have CM-10.1 alpha6 a few days ago. and i realised that it drain battery very fast.. just simply fully charge it to 100% and left there with wifi,bluetooth and all applications off, yet the battery drained in half day..
if open 3G, the battery drain 30% in 20 minutes.
can sumeone tell me what's the problem and how can i solve it? thx a lots
Why don't you try to flash another kernel..
I personally recommend kernel by hurtsky, or by castagnaIT.
that's only my opinion..
you're welcome to try..

first, how old is your battery?
older than 1 yr, u should try getting a new battery.

Well..
It's just the same way like how you flashed the cm10.1 rom..
Try to head to this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2218087
There's also an instruction on a proper way to flash it..
And don't forget to thanks him if you like his kernel
CM10.1 aka Android 4.2.2 uses higher voltage compared to CM10 and CM9(especially CM9).
So its understandable. But in CM10.1, SGW can use 1.0Ghz and still fluently do a lot of things.
Try underclocking and undervolting.

try to consider the age of your battery, your lcd revision , and usage.

agree..alpha 6 still not in revert kernel..maybe your lcd is the main cause drain your battery..

I have CM 10.2 everythings is ok..battery consumption is depends from life time of your battery then the number of apps and services activated...
Change to new battery
hmmm.... maybe it's because of your battery.. from my experience , you should buy new battery if the battery is used more than 1 year... i had experinced before when my battery drain faster, after i bought new battery.. the problem solved...
Guys. Stop telling him it´s the battery. If it were the battery the draining would be already that fast before flashing CM10.1, but not just after.
A bloated and aged battery can of course be the reason, but this doesn´t have to be always the case. My stock Samsung battery is already 2 years old but working like new. However I have to admit that I don´t use it that often. Having here 3 batteries I´m changing them regulary every few months.
This draining will be more related to the LCD version in his phone, which he should read about and check before flashing a CM10.1 based rom. Additionally the recent Google updates can cause even more battery drain than the LCD Rev.3 issue alone, which has to be taken also into account.

Battery serious problem

hey guys,i have been flashingmany roms every week for about 2 months, then I decided to start fresh.
wiped every thing via cwm and then flashed stock rom via odin,then rooted it.
problem is battery is as fast as HELL , and i have sudden drops, e.g. phone shuts down suddenly at 30% or even 50% , and when i connect charger it shows 0%.
tried battery calibration but no good.
I bought a new battery , and my phone still have sudden shutdowns when used for more than 30 minutes.
even offline.
Is my phone damaged ,or it has permanent leak ,even i change batteries?!
plz reply ASAP , and btw i dont have a screenshot cuz i am using stock 2.3.6.
I recommend you to go to a Samsung Costumer Service and ask for help. I think is a hardware issue, not a software issue.
Also, to use screenshot on GB, use Volume down + Home button.

Must be hardware. If the battery change doesn't quite cut it, then its a hardware problem.

Samsung galaxy S4 mini battery drain!

Hi everybody...I have this phone and I have a problem.When I charge the phone up to 100% battery and then take it from the charger,battery drops to 99 or less without phone usage...And when I go to sleep and then wake up,the phone lost about 10-15 percent...Can somebody plesase help me?
Check what's keeping your phone awake during idle, "wakelock detector" and "better battery stats". Though you need root for these. You've nor given us any details of what your phone is and what ROM?? Try searching for threads on how to calibrate your phone battery.
Ohh sorry...My phone is S4 mini GT-I9195 LTE....I have stock android 4.4.2 kitkat...I have already calibrated battery and bought new battery...But same problem...
Will be an app causing your phone to wake
I dont know...i searched on the web and someone said that stock kernel have some problems

Not always the case... Depends when and where your phone was made. Could be a faulty kernel or motherboard but it also could be an app or a setting on your phone or an unclean install. Have you always suffered this issue?
I got phone about 3 weeks ago...and the battery was very bad so i bought new one.I also tried CM 12.1 but the phone is heating in unnormal way but the battery there is better...
You have problems with motherboard. Go to service center to replace it on waranty.
Powered by CM12.1
But my phone isnt on waranty...i got it used haha....ahh nvm,i will live with that problem.thanks for help!
Bad luck then. Normal consumption for our device is 0.2 - 0.3 % per hour in stand by.
Powered by CM12.1
How long does yours battery last with some normal usage?
Almost 3 days with moderate usage.
Powered by CM12.1
Woww thats a very big difference haha.

Your best bet seeing as unless you pay for a new motherboard is to try one of the battery drain fix kernels on here. Though I think you may be limited to certain compatible ROMs.
Why are you not staying on cm 12.1? For me it's amazing, i observed at least 100% more battery efficiency than stock (4.2.2). I also observed the same problem with high temp too. But i think we can't have it all. When i play games and the outside temperature is about 35 celsius, i do not expect anything less, because this mobile is not designed for this android version. I think that's reasonable and i finally can use my mobile with a joyful way without having my mind always on the battery stats!

Thanks guys! And i will try CM 12.1 for longer time to see if anything will be better!
