[Q] Z1 Compact battery drain fast? - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, I bought my Z1C about more than 1 week. Device is unrooted and using stock ROM. It was doing fine on fhe first day of using, with battery down by 10% in an hour on screen. However, lately I have experiencing pretty fast battery drain; it went down 10% in 30min.
Stamina + low battery mode + location based wifi + queue background are on. Brightness only 50% with adapt lightning mode. I checked battery health test and it said battee was doing fine (or is it?) with 2388000 uAh
Now I'm at 25% from 8h 33m on battery, which includes 4h 37m on screen (too big usage were Android system [50min] and Bubble Witch Saga 2 game [1h 10m])
Is this normal? Should I call Sony tech support? I'm kinda worry . Thanks

Most likely some app eating your battery in the bg. Install some battery monitor like gsam or betterbatterystats(cant remember if you need root). Good luck.

I would also post some screenshots of the battery stats (default android battery screen with the awake time and big line graph and with a battery stat app like GSam or BetterBatteryStat) to see if anything stands out. Could just be some rogue app.

Very litlle battery life on my GIO

Hello all,
Am i the only one that is having problems with the battery life on the galaxy gio?
I charged the phone today at 5 in the afternoon, by 8(3 hours after) 70% of battery, charged it with the wall charger and i rebooted it when the battery was full to close all tasks.
In 3 hours without any wifi, only 1 sms received, no calls and no other tasks was executed i lost 30%.
What can i do to improve the battery?
Are you experiencing any similar problems?

You can wipe battery stats, and turn things like gps wifi data autosync unused apps etc off, for some things you need root acces

What rom you have ?
I have problems with battery life too...but because i play games. Is weird because you didn't do nothing like browsing or play games and your battery was eaten.
Try a full wipe.
Also search the market for PowerTutor, it might be able to help finding what eats your battery, as what you describe this is not normal.
If you've rooted your phone you can calibrate your battery. There's an app for this in the market. It just wipes the battery stats file and creates a new one. I've head that it is good with every rom change to calibrate the battery Hope this helps! GL!
Actually it's good to flash every new ROM when you have fully charged battery. If you fail to do this you'll have to calibrate the battery and it might not be easy to do right the first time.
SO much easier to flash having full power
Battery stats wiping
IIRC google denied that battery stats wiping would actually increase the battery life: http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...-battery-stats-does-not-improve-battery-life/
I assume, you have things like WiFi, BT or GPS turned off... Then you maybe might try another launcher. Samsung's TouchWiz is quite a power eater.

It won't increase battery life, true, but think - when you unplug the charger? When your phone says "100% charged", right? And if your battery starts are wrong the phone may say "I'm charged" when it's actually, say, 40% charged or whatever.
Wiping stats should also provide more accurate battery indicator when it gathers new stats after some usage.

In my experience the battery indicator may work a bit odd (e.g. it goes fast to 40% then stays there for ages). But it didn't keep the battery from charging to full, even when it indicated 100% it still kept charging. But to stay in the topic, clearing the stats might help the "dropping by 30% really fast" issue
Yup, that's what I was talking about - wiping stats won't improve battery life, but might fix indicator accuracy
It could be your background applications eat too much mobile data. Check out your background applications and disable them. Stick with 2G also it improves battery life a lot
if the phone and battery are ok, and you don't have Wifi/BT/3G/EDGE/max_screen_brightness/ or high CPU usage background apps, you should get something like in the attached picture:
AT least for me CM7.2 really improved battery life up to 2 (TWO) days!
Unfortunately CM9 ruined this again and brought it back for ~8h...

You can use CM 7.2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1381355
It is stable and saves battery better than stock rom.
Another thing to check is that Wifi is set to disable when the screen turns off or when plugged in... If not, you can loose 50% battery life in 6 hours. (Which i did once. NOT FUN.)
As well, apps that sync in the background. Ie, mail checking your inbox every hour for new mail; facebook, twitter, myspace checking for new notifications every hour; leaving apps using GPS running in the background like Navigation, My Tracks, etc. Those sorts of things can drain a battery really quickly, beacuse it has to wake up the phone, get the phone to get the required data over the cellular network then go back to sleep again, instead of just letting the phone sleep.
Another thing you can do is to make sure you kill apps. IE, don't use the home button to exit the app, use the back button. That will kill the app instead of leaving it running in the background.
Its kinda funny, this is all stuff people have mentioned already, but it seriously can be the difference between a half a day and a whole day on a battery...

Battery drain -

I am still experiencing high battery drain issues. I am using Badass Battery Stats, and I am seeing high battery use from App Usage (30%), with System (com.htc.launcher) taking 16%.
Is this normal, are you guys seeing similar results? What is your Launcher usage?
I am at 65% after 10 mins of screen usage and 3 hrs of standby.
For comparison, my phone lasted like 35 hrs yesterday/the day before, with ~2 hrs of screen usage.

your best bet is to use BetterBatteryStats and that will give you a more detailed explanation in what is draining your battery when screen is off. Launcher should not really eat that much battery it is normally the screen. so if i was you i would remove that app for one charge cycle and try bbs which you can get from a thread here on xda and found out from that what is eating your battery my friend

*#*#3424#*#* -> More -> Battery Test and if it's faulty ask for a return/exchange. I got around 87% +/- 1 after1 hour of the test.
I actually swapped my unit once already, the last one had drain issues as well. I wonder if it's something on my software end.
BetterBatteryStats couldn't find anything unusual on my last device, but I will try it on this guy as well.
Will try the battery test as well, thank you.
I have a ton of contacts (1k+) that got imported from my Gmail. I wonder if the device is trying to sync those, which causes some of the battery issues - since the included "Contacts" package is indicated in the screenshot I attached.
I turned off auto-sync for contacts, will see if that helps at all.

Get Slim ICS installed. I've tried almost every ROM out there for the HOX, and this is by far the best battery consumption I've ever had!
A new ROM is a solution, but was hoping I could get stock working fine first... :/
Do you guys have any suggestions on how to diagnose what could be causing that htc.com.launcher is taking so much battery? I'm up to 25% now.
Is it me or are people using Badass Battery experiencing bad results for battery?
Well let me tell you when I use it I get worse battery. It tells you what is using your battery, but when I decide to disable some of the things it picks up on. I get worse battery life. Also the app itself drains a lot of battery.
I am not an expert, but some the items disabled are integral to the system. And the system trys to enable these apps, but can't. It's like batteries playing hide and seek with the apps and running out of breath.
I got my ram usage down to 490 mb ish with all apps killed, but I had the worst battery life ever. It was draining fast even with the phone in sleep, and I had random apps I disabled starting (Flickr and PDF viewer).
My advice is trial and error. Use the task manager as apposed to these battery heavy apps, and if you find a place where you are getting awesome battery results, stop tinkering!
Edit: a bit enthusiastic in the Ram department.

There's a new battery monitor just come out for free on the play store called carat.
This app's meant to tell you which apps are using your battery and compares it to other phones.
It has to monitor your device for a week before it can give you the results but if it works properly it will be worth it.
have you found a solution? I have the same issue and don't know how to fix
I'm a new user of one x and the battery drain is appalling....i charged it full and was just playing around customizing the phone/settings and i could see it was draining one percent every one to two minutes!
I'm coming from sgs2 although it wasn't great but wasn't as bad as this!
Also, following my customisation etc i changed the sim card and all my customized settings such as wallpaper etc reset back to default!

I, for once was having the same problem..but after one week or two, the battery seems quite stable, and after I played among those beautiful ROMs, I can get the most out of my battery..thank God, I hope you will have the same experience..
Maybe if you wanna stay stock, start to analyze what 'culprit' that actually drained your battery..try using the search bar and use different search terms such as 'battery saving guide' bla bla bla..there are several thread have discussed the same issue..
I am on stock Rom and this is the first full charge after a factory reset although the phone is not brand new but a few months old...

Try disabling Location & Google Search (Settings -> Location). Noticed that Google services drained 65% of my battery, and heated up the phone. And it only happens when I turn on wifi and update the weather widget, which uses network location service. The drain won't stop until I restarted. Under the services, there's a network location service. So I tried disabling the said setting. Not sure if it will work for you, but it won't harm if you try.

Battery life issues

I'm running the Mahdi rom 2.5 on my gpad and my battery life is terrible. I have been doing some basic Web surfing for the past hour and the battery dropped 20% . I checked battery stats and it says the screen used 90% of the battery. I have it set at 70 percent brightness which doesn't seem to high. I'm new to Android so maybe I'm missing a setting . Any help will be great

One thing that helped my battery life was turning off the location access in settings. Alot of apps these days like to monitor your location to assist in features they have within their apps.

That seems about normal.
With the screen all the time on you can get about 5 hours of battery life.
It's the screen that eats pretty much all of the battery so there's no solution for it.

I'm using Mahdi rom too, but it's not that bad, I think it's generally the G Pad not brilliant on battery.
I know this doesn't help with on-screen time, but get yourself Greenify app which helps with off screen battery usage. You'll need Xposed module for it to work.
You can stop wakelocks for certain things too. Get yourself Better Battery Stats to show you what's eating your battery up, especially when in sleep. When you know what's causing wakelocks, you can block them with the Rom.
You can turn this feature on under Settings > Developer Options > all the way to bottom, find "Wakelock Blocker" > Click "Enable"
Here's a few which cause problems, for me anyway, by all means try them out and see if it makes a difference:
- ActivityManager-Launch
- AlarmManager
- AudioIn
- AudioMix
- GCM_CONN_ALARM
- NlpWakeLock
Hope that helps.
All those things don't really help, unless you are losing more battery than a couple of percent overnight (which shouldn't be the case normally)
Actually I think that apart from the screen the G pad is very efficient and hardly uses battery when sleeping.
And there's nothing you can do about the screen being power hungry.
Thanks for the help guys. I guess I will have to keep it close to the charger.

G Pro Kitkat Battery hogs

is it just me or is the kitkat ROM really sucks----battery pretty well?
I also notice that the CPU usage does not drop to 20 percent idle but when I used other ROM (JB based) it becomes 5 percent.
RAM usage is good but I think it hogs the CPU. I used cpuz on measuring the cpu usage

Where can I get the JB rom for OGP?
For me, Android was best at JB and went backwards with KK.
Yes, I've noticed absolutely horrible battery life with KK. KK just feels like it is several different parts all just thrown together.
The only reason I think is that theoretically JB uses more battery is that the system uses more voltage than the kitkat. however, what's less voltage use if the CPU is always busy and wakeups are just everywhere.
Hi guys, maybe you could post in some battery stats so we could know more about whats draining your battery in particular and suggest some fixes. I've actually experienced the opposite with kitkat-battery life for me improved. There was even an instance that I got the phone to last 30 hours, with 5 hours, 48 mins. screen. On another instance I got 15 hours life and 5 hours 25 mins screen on. I just lost the screenshots as I had to reflash stock when i was doing some G3 mods., but nevertheless i could post some new ones.
I value batter life was well and i'm curious to see how yours could be improved too..

What a battery life. 15 hours screen time?
how can we accurately measure? because I only use CPU-Z and installed DS battery saver to save power. right now it only used 2% of my battery during the night. (from 1:45 - 5:50am)
I see. can you tell me what app should I use to determine CPU usage of each app/service?

No, my battery lasted 15 hours, and my screen-on time (total time i spent using the phone) was 5+ hours coz i basically used my phone then for gaming the whole day I suggest you download gsam battery monitor app (it also has a temperature_bat. Usage graph), as well as wakelock detector. Another alternative would be better battery stats. What you would need to observe would be the apps and wakelocks draining your battery both when you are using your phone, and also when its idle.
I also notice that battery capacity is 2A in which it should be 3.140A right?
this shows on kitKat but on jellybean, it's 3.140A again.
is there something wrong with the detection of battery capacity?

What happened was that in kitkat, the permisssions required to be able to access battery stat files changed. Thus, apps w/c could freely access the batter stats in JB cannot gain complete access in Kitkat. This is the case for some battery monitor apps w/c now have lesser accuracy in reporting battery. No worries though, as there are means to bypass this problem. If you have xposed you could install a module for this. Also, some apps like gsam battery monitor come with a separate root companion app. Once you install those batter stats will be accurate.
Here's a screenshot of my battery stats for today..might not be 5+ hrs of screen on as i did a lot of rebooting today (themed with g3 tweaksbox). Nevertheless, this is just to show that kitkat has the potential to provide good battery life. Also enclosed is a screenshot of one of the battery apps i use, gsam.
Hey everybody! I have some findings I absolutely must share so you can benefit as well.
I've been doing some tinkering and I've find a way to significantly increase battery life on the OGP.
First thing you'll want to do is put your phone into airplane mode.
Second, turn your screen brightness down as low as it will go. I mean, all of the way down.
Third, don't play any games on your phone.
Try those three tweaks and see what kind of battery improvement you get.

Just so you know, first my cell radio and wifi were both on the whole time. Second, i was on auto brightness the whole time. Third, i played clash of clans as you see in there.
If you have not done this already, adjust your cpu to save your battery juice. Set the cpu governor to powersaver or interactive mode if you just using the phone to send msg and make calls. I let my phone run on msm-dvcs and when I'm not plug in. Check out ROM toolbox if you're rooted. Seriously folks, instead of complaint about how much the roms suck the juice, try these different ways to see they make any difference for you.

Terrible Battery Life

I don't know with the others, but there seems to be mysterious battery drain on my A70. It's night and day, compared to my old ZE553KL with only 500mAH difference in battery.
Is there any tips to get even more battery life from this thing?
Hello,
I have the same problem, battery goes down so fast, very disappointed with battery life.
My battery life is great (6h SoT at least), I usually end the day with more than 50% battery left. Maybe you have some apps draining the battery in the background or the update messed it up so it might be worth doing the reset to factory settings.
Check - background scanning wifi and gps if is ON it drain battery a lot , also if not need change gps accuracy to coarse . Battery draining apps samsung software report itself after 2-3 days .

I don't know with the others, but there seems to be mysterious battery drain on my A70. It's night and day, compared to my old ZE553KL with only 500mAH difference in battery.
Is there any tips to get even more battery life from this thing?

Can you attach Battery Usage? So we could compare the rate for thorough analysis?

I've never had that application installed
I'm getting excellent battery life.. I'm only using 4g network...
I can't say why but I found out that disabling bixby (voice thingy) makes a huge difference on my A70 with battery.
to those, who use 3rd party battery apps:
I think you should stop using 3rd party battery apps (battery monitoring, saving apps) they consume a lot, too, and do the same as the built in battery app. I experienced when I installed one of these "useful" apps, and it consumed the most battery, so these are fake. Simply uninstall or disable really not used apps. You will see difference in my opinion
