Hi All,
I'm just wondering if anyones got any tips on how to reduce power drain on a T-Mobile Compact 3? I'm Using Meschle's Artemis 2.1 LITE ROM (awesome)with all the fixes applied. I've only installed apps I really need. The only program I have running in the background is ActiveSync since I use Direct Push for my E-mail.
Battery drain constantly hangs at around 116mW and can occasionally jump upto 500mW which really drains the battery. I've tried following a few tips I've seen in the forums (disable automatic weather updates, lower back light settings) but I was just wondering if anyone had tips as to how to get the drain even lower?
Thanks in advance!

How much battery life are you getting really - you never know you may be better in comparision to many here !
I can normally average about 2 days of battery before it dies on me. I've got 3 batterys in total (brought some spare for when I'm on the move and away from a USB for a while) and they each seem to be stuck on this 2 day mark.
Thanks,
Hi everyone,
I have a 5 months old galaxy nexus. I love this device. After getting upgraded to 4.1, my battery drains out very quickly, almost 1% for 2 minutes (low bright screen and no WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS on, no hidden or many running program as I have just restored to factory reset). I do not think something is wrong with my battery. It used to take more 18 hrs to run out the battery with standard use. Enclosed the screen capture for your ref. The screen uses 75% of the battery and it is hot on its surface. The backside temperature is normal.
BTW, I heard that there is 3000 man battery for nexus. Should I purchase this?
Please help me to advise if something I can do to fix this problem? Thanks!
When you updated from 4.0.# to 4.1.# then did you change baseband radio..? Flash back the baseband radio what you used on ICS or try XXLF1 radio.. it should fix the problem if battery isn't broken... and what was the android version on your nexus? (Takju, yakju, yakjuxw, or what?
Like the title says, my AT&T G3 will not play audio through speakers if the battery is below 80%. It falls to 79% and it no longer works. It works with headphones at all battery %, but speakers simply do not work below 80. I've tried with stock (no root, nothing), Cloudy G3, and now I'm using Candy 5 ROM. The same issue. I have tried this with 4 different aux cables and it's really frustrating. Has anyone had this issue? Have you resolved it?
Hi all,
Finally I've got my new amazing note 4.
I've got a battery issues that idk how to solve them.
Wifi off
Bt off
Location off
Sync off
Screen 25%
And I don't get. More than 4 hours screen time. Whys that?
After upgrading to Nougat, I found that my Nexus 5X's battery drained much faster than before.
I did some testing and discovered that Bluetooth was responsible:
- with BT enabled, the 5X loses about 5% battery per hour, simply sitting there on the table (WiFi and Mobile enabled as well)
- with BT disabled, it's <2% per hour (WiFi and Mobile enabled)
I only use BT in my car, so usually BT should just be idle.
Any ideas would be much appreciated!
Battery is lame on 5x mines particularly worse at work due to the pore antenna always loosing data connection and searching for it seems to drain it quicker just changed from the Moto G4 and antenna in that is much better didn't loose data connection as much

For me 7.0 is totally broken regarding battery, see my thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/battery-drain-fresh-reinstall-7-0-idle-t3451094
I downgraded to 6.0.1 (MTC20F) and everything returned back to normal ( about 5% drain per night).
Maybe radio model on 7.0 is broken, coz it drains power just when it is idle while doing absolutely nothing (no uplink or downlink data sent). I guess always turning ON/OFF wifi and BT might help, but for me it is easier to downgrade.
Not had it that bad on 7.0 but it's no better I think haven't noticed drain while idle but deff needs more tweaking yet hell I just went from the G4 back to 5X OK it has a 3000mAh battery but I could get near day and a half fairly heavy usage , 5X I'm charging mid day to make it through rest of the day and still need to charge around 10pm if up late why did I do it !! For 7.0 of course ,, piff waste wish I'd kept G4 now and it did turbo charge QC 3.0, N5x better chip can only do QC 2.0

Is this being observed more widely yet?
I've just upgraded to 7.0 (stock rooted) and noticed today that the battery was getting a bit of a thrashing - and bluetooth is the highest draw, which I have never seen before. I've always left it on permanently as it links to my car system and never had a significant battery penalty before.
In an attempt to resolve, I've just turned off battery optimisation for Bluetooth sharing (have heard that could be a problem) plus also bluetooth scanning in location accuracy. I really do not want to have to turn bluetooth on and off, it would be a backwards step.
Gas buddy and other poorly coded apps use Bluetooth to acquire your location. Google it. Uninstall them and enjoy normal battery life again.

I don't have Gasbuddy specifically, but I do get your point. I've had no issues for the past couple of days since turning off bluetooth battery optimisation and the bluetooth location scanning. I'm interested to know which one is at fault - I'd guess at the location scanning based on your information - so I'll have to turn them on individually to make sure.
If it does turns out to be location, is there an easy way to track it back to a specific app?
