Hi,
Since a few weeks I have a gt-I9195 (S4 Mini, Android 4.2.2) and have some issues with the battery life.
After installing CPU Spy, I noticed that the device CPU suddenly starts running at the 810 MHZ frequency, without any reason. Sometimes for the whole day, until the battery dies. (turn off location, remove SD card, it all doesn't help. The phone is not used at all and sync is off).
Now, I just discovered that when pluging it into the original wall charcher, the CPU wakes from deep sleep and starts running at the 810 MHZ frequency until it is fully charged. My other phone (S4) doesn't have this issue and is kept in deep sleep while charging.
Any suggenstions?
Install a custom Kernel which solves the deep-sleep issues (or probably the issue will be solved by updating to Kitkat).
There are a couple of custom Kernels available here.

Thanks for the reply, but when installing a custom kernel, I assume it would triger the knox security flag. Can you confirm if it does?
If so, I prefer to wait for KitKat which is not available for my country yet.

You're right if you have Knox boot loader will trigger Knox (
Good news is that you can flash any official KitKat with Odin SMS won't trigger Knox

If you want to root your device you should be aware that rooting will trigger the Knox flag as well. All Kitkat firmwares with build date after June 3rd are patched - Towelroot will not work anymore.
I don't recall deep sleep while charging on custom kernels, are you guys simply makimg assumptions or you tested them?

When charging my S4, it is in 99% in deep sleep.
When charging my S4 mini, it is 0% in deep sleep.
both tested, both stock kernel.

And can you confirm that I can go back to 4.2.2 (downloaded from sammobile for my own country) after flashing a KitKat rom from another country. The reason I need to know is that I am still considering returning the device under warranty.

Mate, I already knew that S4 mini doesn't go in deep sleep while charging what I was saying is that, for my experience, stock or custom kernel doesn't make a difference in deep sleep. I used f4ktion, vikinger, brisk etc., and cpu frequency always kept at 810mhz while charging. I remember that my samsung galaxy mini used to behave more or less the same.
This phone likes very much 810mhz. Not only it keeps this frequency while charging with screen off, but also while you're for example listening to music or radios with screen off. Weird.

I think you can't downgrade anymore, because kk came with new bootloader, technically you can downgrade to official jb with the same bootloader as kk but I don't know if such thing exist.
About your wakelock can you post battery stats or wake lock detector.
My s4mini is duos but never seen the thing you describe. I think its a wakelock, do you use a dockstation or non stock charger?

This night I charged the phone while turned off, so I cannot see the issue. When battery gets low, I will try to create a wakelock screenprint.
For charging I use the official wall charger (micro usb plugged into the phone) no docking station.
Please, don't make him think he has a problem, EVERY s4 mini (or stock ones at least) have this behaviour when charging.

Guys it's not a "problem", you don't even notice it if you don't look on cpu spy, BBS etc. Charge is quite slow when on but even when off is slow (more than 2 hours).
I'm assuming that:
you've got a GT-I9195 and not the dual/3g variant
you charge it with the cable

That is all correct, I now use charging when turned off, to avoid the CPU issue and it seems to have impact on the battery usage too.
Since charging when turned off, by battery life is great. I do not recall changing any other settings.
Now waiting for the Dutch KitKat update and see if that solves the issue with CPU while loading.

To improve battery life when you charge the phone while is ON, unplug it from charger at least 15mins after 100% notification (you know... the one that tells you to unplug it). Try not to use it during this time, then unplug it and you'll notice that the first % will go down much slower.
Today I've seen that a GT-I9195 with KK (friend of mine's phone) has this cpu behaviour as well while charging, but not at 810mhz. At 345mhz (which makes a bit more sense I think).

I'll try your tip on charging and indeed, Kitkat seems better, but still, my S4 is kept in deep sleep while charging, which is even better and should also be possible for the mini I would assume.
Yes you can downgrade from KitKat to 4.2.2 only with Brasilian firmware...

You will stay with the same ROM, just a different kernel. So more governors, tweaks etc. You won't notice a difference visually.

Hmm. Might be that your battery is dead?
Try a pristine install of CM11 again, see if that helps.
batter drain
Sir, I have started using nightlies cm11 on gt n7000 from 2days back, and iam having a bit of battery related problems.. Battery is been drained within few hours only..like 4 to 5 even if my system is sleeping still then its draining quite a lot of battery, rest everything is working fine for me. All the system settings are set to default.. I would really appreciate if you look into this manner. Thankyou
-
May be CM11 Dark ?!
I'm running CM11 Dark (Beta 2) + KhaN Kernel v.1.5 and the battery life is pretty good I'm using Polarcell Akku 1600MAh ordered from ebay for about 10€. BUT if nothing helps and you absolutely want to keep your installation, may be just disconnect the charger for rebooting
i know what are you talknig about, and that's NORMAL: every android phone does like that, if you reboot your device while it's in charge, the calibration charge is messed up, so do NEVER reboot your device so often...if you forced to do that, so wait until it's 100%, wait something like 1/2 hour / 1 hour at least and then disconnect your phone from the charger. Then use it until it shut off for low battery (and even in this case, just ONCE you have to make it shut off or you will cause damage to battery.
That's it, i hope it helped
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.

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!
Sent from my GT-I9195 using XDA Free mobile app
Thanks guys! And i will try CM 12.1 for longer time to see if anything will be better!
Hey people.
I own the OnePlus 3 and its is on a custom ROM Named Experience OS based on OB 17.
Its running on the kernel provided by the ROM and firmware is also stock as I use TWRP from Blu_spark v 33.
Now the problem is when I am charging the device it heats up abnormally high note higher than 46 degrees.
And also I get bad standby time with only upto 4 and a half hour Run time between charges.
I have noticed high drainage from Android System.
I charge only upto 80℅.
Tell me where I am wrong.
Do I need to visit the service center..??
If you require additional information do tell me.

Try another ROM or kernal. I think sultan's ROM has better battery experice and less heat issues. Try to switch to Sultan's.
Something isn't right since dash is meant to take the heat away from the device while it's charging
Are you using the phone at the same time? Also check your app usage maybe a rouge app is keeping it away while charging and causing the heat
+1 i too face the heating issue while the phone is charging. I had a strange incident as well: When i visited my parent's house last week, i received a phone call while it was getting charged and since it was from a family person i told my father to receive it in my place as he was standing near the phone. As soon he touched the phone to his ears he told, "it's is very son".
I have been facing this since last couple of months when i used to have stock oos. Then unlocked bootloader and started triying different roms. But the heating problemus still there and instead i got addicted to installing roms every week?

Well can you provide us some data atleast? It's not normal that you have to charge your phone every few hours. This means something is draining your phone most likly an user app.. Have you tried a full clean install / factory reset with the unbrick tool (method). With 46 degree you mean Battery temp or whatever? What is your surrounding temperature?
same problem , even i'm charging my op3 from a normal charger. device temp. gets upto 42-43 C .. i live in delhi, india and its too hot here.
and one more thing that only 50 minutes takes my fon to get fully charged ,if i charge my op3 from dash charger . i dont think its good !! high temp. is not good for Li batteries
every thing stock except twrp recovery !! tried many roms but oxygen is better out of those !!

As soon as I use my phone the phone starts cooling down.
But as soon as I set it down it heats up again.
Tried checking for rouge app found Instagram stopped it but still no effect.
I even used the fix zip from the dev behind Experience OS.

Well you see. When you lay down your phone it will go into deep sleep. Deep sleep doesn't use alot of power which means your device won't heat up at all. In your case it does, as you describe you have only 4.5hr of standby which means something is draining your phone drastically. Can you provide some screen shots of your battery stats? Post as many different screen shots as you can. Also BetterBatteryStats is a really good app you can find the free version on XDA.
This was asked in the ExperienceOS thread too.
You have a runaway process on your phone. This will use 20-30% CPU on all cores all the time, more or less. Use an app that can check the KERNEL log like 3C Toolbox and you'll find that the heat is due to excessive logging (like several lines every second) from the same process. One of the more common issues is the kernel not able to get write permission for the pm-service to thr IPC Router. THis is solved by setting SElinux PERMISSIVE until the kernel can write to it.
This will make your phone charge slower, get hotter while doing it and give you lower SOT.
Usually this is due to using Magisk, since Magisk has issues with the sepolicy and needs to set SElinux to permissive. If SElinux is Enforcing (as it SHOULD be to protect your phone) the above issue will arise.
If you're using SuperSU then Jamal issued a FIX for this as he made an error in the init.d config for SuperSU 2.82. Basically the two issues are identical as far as the end user is concerned.
All this can be found in the Experience thread where you asked the same question and did not read the 10 posts right above your question.
So, i was on V3.15
I got update notification of V3.18 (3.7gb?)
I clicked.
My phone battery was behaving normal, calibrated and charge current speed 5200mAh.
I upgraded to V3.18 and booom, charge current shows always half of the value.
But it charges still 5200mAh but device thinks the input current is 2500-2600mAh.
My phone is EU variant. 16/256 Ghost Edition.
I downgraded to V3.15 (yes i lost data) and problem solved. I upgraded again to V3.18 and hello, problem is back!
This causes battery to be miscalibrated.
For over a week using this update and it still persists, it did not settle down.
So now when my battery hits 18% and i charge and it hits 56%, then its not 56% but in fact, its ~80%.
Charging while phone is fully shutdown is same too. It seems like the kernel is giving false info to device. So when phone system reads 2600mAh it moves percentage by that. So when this happens it thinks it charges alow and raises percentage slow accordingly too but in fact it still charges full speed.
Anyone else experiencing this issue? Using original cable and charge adapter.
Been sending video recordings/screenshots and 8min long of video of me talking/shutting down system/rebooting but the customer service denies to admit they messed up V3.18 charging parameters. They refuse.
So tell me. Who else is experiencing this issue?
It only happens on newest OS update (NX669S_EUCommon_V3.18).
So please, if you experience same issue, write it down here and contact customer service and give them link to this thread.
Raise awareness. I fresh installed V3.18 and it still happens! Wiped data, still happens!
Not normal!
Been using this update over a week with no luck.
Greetings, I am in the exact same situation like you with the latest EU update. Just created my account to post here, since I was browsing around the web searching for eventual fix for this issue. Sadly, I am unable to downgrade to the previous version and this is driving me crazy.
Can you suggest me a way to downgrade? (there is no factory reset option, nor wiping partition in boot mode works)

You cant downgrade, if you do you will lose all data on phone with downgraded version.
The customer support i exchanged 15emails or so and they simply dont admit its their mistake. They just fool with me.
My belief is they intentionally try to ruin our battery to go for the new redmagic 7 device.
They even "overcharge" our phone. My phone alerted me at 74% (overvoltage battery charge stops). Voltage on battery raised up to 4.5voltage because battery charges still fast at 95-99% even tho phone thinks its at 74%.
But no, this Nubia company denies to admit their mistake with my proofs and tests.
Their technical team doesnt even check.
I mean they just need to put this update in their device and then charge from ~20% to 100% and they will see it.
We need more people gathering here up and to make our voice be heard. Come on guys everyone please stand up!

I flashed 3.15 lost all data, then upgraded problem came back at 3.18.
But on 3.15 there isnt any.
Posted to their support with a link to the thread as well, we will search our rights if this is intentional with the release of RM7...
I also noticed, the cpu 4 main cores get stuck at 100% sometimes (for 20min or 1-2hours) causing huge heat build-up and extra high battery usage.
Sometimes it fixes itself and then quickly comes again stuck at 100%.
Only way to fix it is by rebooting phone.
Really sucks. When this happens, and you charge phone and play with charge separation, the phone goes very high temperature.
This is gaming phone? With problems?
Their kernel is bad. Their developers just DONT put effort. they cant release a simple normal clean kernel... I swear, if they dont fix these issues i will for sure go back to OnePlus as my next device, i had no such issue....

Sometimes dont u notice battery heats alot way more than before while doing same thing?
At times its 37c and then at times hits 40c.
Fun thing is when i plug charger it suddenly shows my battery is fallin from 39c to 35c.
Zzz this company and device, probably my first and last redmagic device.

Im regularly checking manually update through the app.

Sometimes i see CPU is very aggresively piking to 100% the first 0-3 cores (4 cores).
Its the small cores maxing to 100% frequency very often.
But at other times it doesnt and i noticed. When it doesnt spike to 100% alot, the phone is battery friendly and doesnt heat alot even during charge, but at random moment this gets triggered and cpu becomes super aggresive for NO REASON!
This is SUPER frustrating!
Very poorly optimized phone, i will definitely not buy a RedMagic phone ever again.
My next device simply OnePlus back.
Im VERY disappointed in RedMagic... Gaming phone? Really?

The video fixes the stuck cpu parameters 80% of time.
It seems like an issue lying down in the phone OS.
RedMagic Gaming phone? Hah! CONSUMER NEEDS TO POINT THESE BASIC ISSUES? What is this
Even a 200$ phone doesnt have such issues.
The video is proof of the issue being unnecesarily running 4 cores at full peak and load.
Causing unnecesary heat buildup and battery drain.

Battery drain, overnight is about 20%. I have disabled 5G, but not much improvement. Is this a defective unit? I'm on Vodafone. I'm still in return window.
Thanks for the advice
Exynos? If so try turning off WiFi, also did you set up with smart switch?
Yes , is exynos. WiFi, is on, while at home, as it should be

I have the Exynos version as well, but I don't recognize this statement. Over night, I lose about 6% with wifi, location and bluetooth on.
Do you have adaptive battery turned on? Maybe that helps for you.

It's well known but may have been fixed, only other thing I could think of is if he used to smart switch to set up the phone
@skinza
It has been fixed in recent updates.
However drain is still significant but not caused by WiFi now.
As you can see Android+Kernel drains over 30% of my battery. Is it normal in recent Android versions?

That's most likely your issue then, another known problem is using smart switch, best off starting fresh and transferring files manually, I used mobile trans app
Need it on both phones
I gave up a 2-month fight with S22 yesterday. I won't do a tester for Samsung for so much money. I returned to the S21U and today I am as happy with the battery life as ever!
I was gonna throw in the towel but now I'm getting 7h sot on 5g and 8-9 WiFi currently at 5h42 with 45% left been watching moves since 100%
Super happy now, but I'm scared to root having to wipe everything I do t wanna lose my battery sd variant
Try to flash firmware with Odin.

When the display is switched on, the phone discharges more slowly than when the display is switched off!

If he is on 2nd April update or above, the Wi-Fi drain issue was fixed.
However, now we have Bluetooth drain! But Samsung is aware and is planning a fix for the following update (or maybe later)

Exactly! I have noticed that Bluetooth drains a lot. How do you know that they're preparing update for it?

Because I'm the one who made the report, they found the issue using my report and told me they were gonna fix it next update or should I say "Fixed normally in a next update whose date is not specified" this is word for word what they told me

7-9 hrs SOT? Jesus. How on earth are you getting that. I too am on S22 SD variant. I consider myself lucky if I make it beyond 3 hours SOT

Tbh it kind of came out of know where
I updated to the xxv Vietnamese firmware for may update as it said it had stability fixes (AVDF) where as mine xsa Australia (AVDD) said only security, I flashed my csc though
Did a battery recalibration and it hit abother level
Adaptive battery on
All apps to sleep except fb, messenger, and emails etc
Got rid of all the bloatware I don't need
Used the galaxy app booster after updating
Manual brightness at roughly 50%
Adaptive display but 120 - 30hz instead of 48
A heap of bixby routines so I can keep location bt and nfc off till needed etc
Galaxy max hz app so phone sleeps as soon as it's off as well as changing Adaptive display while powersaving mode but changed it so 96hz - 30
I'm contemplating rooting but scared I'm gonna lose my good battery life after resetting
