Deleting battery stats file does not improve anything on your phone and it does not fix any issues either!
And restarting consuming more battery is normal, as phone is using more resources to load Android.

Thanx for the correction, Someguyfromhell. Just thought that was the only difference with my installation as my Arc S does not lose so much loading up with my many apps.Thanx still
I have also experienced big drain during reboot and specially when in CWM installing stuff or running/restoring backups. Out of that battery is just fine so I wouldn't worry :good:
try using kernel fusion 5.5/5.4

Debloating

Hi All,
Just want to ask, does debloating the wrong apps have any possible negative effects (except for some functions not working)?
Like reduced battery life and wakelocks?
I tried debloating stuff which I "thought" were useless, and battery consumption during standby was higher than normal. Thank you.

I believe debloating system apps will prevent the app from running its features and consuming Ram + Battery. So it really lessens battery use.
Besides, there are some guides spread all over the forum in what apps is safe to remove/freeze.
Hope I help. ^.^ Goodluck!

I cant really say that this was as informative as I wanted the answer to be, but what the heck, its in my sig anyway...

What drains battery ?

Is there any good apps that can show you which component/app that drains your battery. Don´t think that the inbuilt in android works that well as you only see system and not the actual componenet.
I use gsam battery monitor

ok, will try that one. Thanks

Should I even bother using Greenify?

I used to use Greenify when I had my Xperia Z3, but I don't know if I should keep it on my 5T, and if it affects performance or not (ex. reopening apps draining more battery or apps taking more time to open).
I have the 8 GB model, so I don't have any RAM problem.
Lately I've decided to try not using any battery "optimizer". I'm currently on OOS B2 with Flash Kernel 3.0..1 and I can easily get nearly two days if battery life with a "normal" use with around 4hrs of screen on time and 1~1.5% per hour while on idle overnight.
So, I think that overall that's not worth messing with Greenify. IMHO
About performances, in theory having to relaunch apps that have been terminated by Greenify would have some inpact on that. Guess that would be quite low, being the device so fast!
My advice would be see how it goes as it is and then try installing Greenify and see if you notice any improvement.
My two cents.
M!

Greenify only hibernate apps, not terminate.
I use Greenify for Facebook and Messenger as they drain a lot of power. I would simply check your battery stats if there are apps that use a lot of power without active usage. If so, Greenify then. If not, it probably doesn't make a huge difference.
Greenify is no matter what, a must download app for me.. Until V30+ and OP5T.. Didn't need it anymore, because I didn't notice a different between installed it and not..
This is an easy one. No.
Deep sleep and idle battery drain seem pretty good on the OP5T so far, I wouldn't bother.
I still use it, nothing related to performance but because I personally do not need some of my apps to run in background. I only use them when I open them so I can save a bit of battery by keeping them hibernated until the next use.

As long as I have good cell signal, I can routinely get 8hrs of SoT with the stock One plus kernel from OpenBeta2. I do use Greenify for the social media apps though. Greenify will basically tell you if it will help or not by displaying apps that it thinks will benefit from hibernating. Although, if you aren't rooted, it basically isn't worth installing.

I'm just asking because I use Amplify, Greenify and Android's built-in battery saver and Android OS still drains A LOT, and by a lot I mean that I can get 3 hours SoT with amoled themes on.

Wait, you get that on the 5T? If so, return it.

I reinstalled the whole rom, seems like its fixed now, I probably messed something up with the kernel.

There may be apps running in the background. Find out about them. See which app is consuming max battery. If possible, clean flash a ROM like bootleggers and flash bfr kernel under clocked. The download link is available in the bootleggers thread.
Sent from my z2_plus using XDA Labs

Kindly share few basic information with your question.
Which ROM
Which baseband
Which kerñel
How many sim card
Which is your primary network
Your usage patterns (games or social or video, or like 4G or WiFi)
Age of Phone (actually age of your battery)
What is your SOT and standby (how often do you need to charge?)
Etc..
Usually battery monitoring apps like AccuBattery can give you good idea on what is using how much battery !!
