[Q] Battery Drain - T-Mobile HTC One (M8)

Anybody else having battery drain since Lollipop? Running stock/S-0ff non rooted. Noticed it eating battery faster so I did the factory reset and restored with htc backup, got better for a few days, now it seems to be eating battery again. Usually I can stream music all day through my bluetooth speaker and go home with over 50%, lately by 10am I'm down to 60-70%.

I've noticed as well. I've had to start using the battery saver app to help.

I ended up doing a full reset again and did not restore with htc backup. seems to be better. Android system was draining pretty heavily in percentage but only had about 20 minutes of actual run time according to the system.

I'm back to easily a full day from charge after turning off location services. I scaled that back a bit and am using appops to turn off location services in particular apps as well, after that and removing my T-Mobile account my battery life is back what it was. That being said this phone hands down is the best battery life on any phone I've ever owned.

[Q] S3 Battery Drain after Jelly Bean

So I searched all day for an answer similar to mine and I did not see what I could do.
I was on rooted on ICS until this weekend when I updated to Jelly Bean and rooted again.
My Battery usage was working fine in ICS, what I would call normal battery drain.
After the update I am getting terrible battery use!!!!
I have tried closing, diabling all apps, radios, I have diabled bloatware.
But my battery keeps draining at a rate of 10% and hour!
All this with minor use.
I have opened a few apps and the Play Store but nothing else.
The S3 has just be inJust in standby.
In the settings, under battery it show my main power consumption is the SCREEN at 60%
I dont know how!
When the screen is off, I dont have a video wallaper and when I do power up the screen its so DIM I can hardley see anything.
All this happened after the Jelly Bean update!
Any idea on what I can do?
Do you think a factor restore would help?
Yes, back your dat up first though (contacts, calender, ect.) because you will have to redownload your apps. I did a reset and was on stock after updating but still had terrible battery life. The fix? Take the battery out 40 minutes, put it back in and run it COMPLETELY dead, and recharge it while it's turned off. Make sure you have time to do this without needing the phone because it takes a while. Like 7-8 hours. I've went a day now without much usage at all (still at 90% charge) and have a day left on standby. The battery reset helped more than anything I believe.
Yep same as mine jb update has a heavy battery drain..and my skyvalex callrecorder stopped working..i just flash back to ICS.

My opinion, factory wipe and Re-root it.
Install SetCPU and the Ktoonsez kernal to manage the power settings. Also Go Power Master is a good app to tweak power settings.
In SetCPU you can have it clocked down when the screen it off.
Had the same problem. Called att went through the ranks until I was told by att warranty supervisor that they had no work around and I should root my phone. Shocking they told me that. But I found the problem. I uninstalled the update to Google now and then shut it down. Battery seams to be doing good now.
Got a free battery from att though. I guess cause there higher ups have no idea how to fix drain.

Luckily your type of phone has a removable battery....unlike me...cannot replace to a higher battery capacity

Semi-solved
I somewhat have solved my problem.
What I did was Factory Reset from the Setting menu. I thought I would have lost Root doing this.
It was already set in my mind to just wipe the S3 clean and start over but the root did not get washed out.
So, I used Kies to only restore my contacts.
Instead of having any old apps restored I downloaded them all over again from the Play Store.
So far so good!!
I have better battery life than prior to the reset.
I had been losing 8% and hour in Standby and 10%+ when in use.
So far today I have used the phone with my screen brightness high, made about 10 calls, surfed youtube and I only down 6% in the last 2 hours.
I consider that better.
If there are some things I can add to my diable list that you all know of to give me an EVEN BETTER result please let me know!
Poor battery life here too. Battery settings says screen is eating 78% and Maps eating 10%. I'm a heavy user but its mostly surfing this site and Facebook. I don't play games or watch YouTube much
Does this solve the battery drain issue?
Hiya all.
I haven't got a S3 so I can't confirm this works.....
A friend was having the same battery drain issue and I was going through his settings and noticed that "Sync All" was on.
Turned it off and the battery drain stopped. We think.
It seems to easy to be true. So I'd like more S3 owners to try.

Hi have the lte version that i got couple of days back and i have the same problem. I have not rooted and it came stock with jb. So you have to do a factory reset and remove the battery and try or just the battery?
Also how to remove some stock apps, I don't use any.
My battery life stinks. I had to get the Mophie case with extra battery built in. works great

[Q] Rapid Battery Life depletion during sleep

Hey XDA friends. I got the Verizon HTC One a few weeks ago and battery life started out fantastic. When I put away to go to sleep it only lost 7% all night with GPS on and wifi on and all that and I was astonished. However as time went on I found those results kept getting worse and worse until I was draining 30% in a night. I went and uninstalled battery guru and now I only drain 12% a night. Some nights however I still lose 20% in a night with sleep mode on. How do I check what keeps waking my phone up and draining my battery. I'm afraid this will affect my phone's battery in the long run. I will start disabling GPS at night but I wish I still had that 7% in a night. How do I check what is messing with my phone???

go to settings/power/usage. this will tell you which app is using the most of you battery. also you should never have gps on while youre sleeping. you might also want to turn off auto-sync and then re-enable it after you wake up. you can create a widget to do just that. if you need help with that, just let me know.
Turn data Wi-Fi and gps off lol.... You are asleep

Do you use blinkfeed, that will kill your battery pretty fast. Even if you don't think you are using it, go check and see if it's syncing anything in the settings. I thought mine was turned off, but then I logged into facebook (turned sync off in facebook), later I found that blinkfeed was syncing it anyway w/out my knowledge.

You can go into settings and make sure everything is unchecked. Mine had several checked by default and it was draining battery.

Update: Battery only drained 10% last night with GPS off, Blinkfeed never updates on its own and all social networks are checked off (I don't like my social networks on Blinkfeed) other than that though everything seems to be in check. If anyone else has anyway to improve that 10% let me know (by the way the 10% was drained during 9 hours of constant sleep I went from 77 to 67)

Really, 1% per hour on standby with cellular radios on is pretty acceptable. Depending on signal strength, the radio could be pulling that just to maintain a connection to the tower.
Thanks everyone!
With GPS off, Sleep mode on, and NO BATTERY HELPER APPS (Battery guru was diminishing my battery life) I got a record breaking (for me) 4% loss in battery life during my 8 hour night's sleep, not bad if I do say so myself, after that my battery has been a lot better. I wish Verizon would give us HTC's battery saving software back but let's not ask too much of Verizon or they might give us timely updates.

Glad to hear this!!
those battery saving apps are so pointless IMHO, it's just another app and if coded incorrectly will do exactly what it did to you, destroy your battery that is working fine. very happy you can now enjoy your phone the way was designed to be!

Hey..I had the same problem so...first download wakelock detector from play store..after installing jus use your phone like as usual..after 4 to 5 hrs or right before you charge your phone, open the wakelock app and check what's waking up your phone during sleep..for everyone it seems the battery is drained by Google services ..the main culprit being the location services.. so switch off the location services in settings..and also in Google maps, go into setting and then into Google location settings and make sure location reporting and location history are disabled, make sure they are unchecked.. that's it..restart the phone..fully charge it and test it out ..and DON'T use any battery saving apps ..and also uninstall wakelocker app after your battery life is back to normal..I'm an average user and I unplug around 9 in da morning and when I come home around 6, I still have 65% left..I don use facebook .. heard even facebook app is major battery drainer....you jus have to tweak and play with settings till you find your desired battery life expectancy cos everyone uses their phone differently..and we all have different apps so the main thing is to find out what's eating the phone battery most...I'm just pleased with my decision in picking HTC ONE over galaxy S4
similar problem here....google services is killing my battery (relatively). location is part of it, but google hangouts is also going crazy (watchdog alerts me to excessive usage....over 50%, but hangouts was at 100%)
i was spoiled on my g-nex, where i left wifi, bluetooth, and GPS on 24/7 and could easily go 24 hours. now i'm lucky to get 12 (with about 1 hour of screen on time).
I'm hoping things will sort out, device is only about a week old, but google optimized location usage (iirc) such that it isn't supposed to constantly ping and kill battery. we shall see, i guess.
I'm not sure what the problem could be but I'm just gonna say that yesterday I got around 18 hours of battery life with over 5 hours screen on time which I consider awesome battery life.
I'm stock, so it's definitely possible to get good battery life.
10 percent overnight? Thats not that great but not horrible. My dna is running carbon (android 4.3) I use tasker to turn off autosync and data/wifi and put it on silent at whatever set time I make it. My phone drains about 5 percent max overnight, usually a lot less.

you can turn off updates in facebook and its not bad, but yeah if you have autoupdate on, it can kill the battery.
as far as the OP, I don't get why you don't charge you phone while you are sleeping. Seems like the perfect time.
Turning GPS off shouldn't affect your battery life. If you're not using your phone, the phone isn't going to use the GPS for anything. So it shouldn't be using your battery. The culprit is usually an app that is wakelocking your phone. So you need to find which app it is that constantly wakes your phone from deep sleep. Turning off autosync would help a bit if you are really paranoid. The big thing that hurts our battery when the screen is off, is the LTE radio, but most people are connected to WiFi when they sleep so it's not a big deal.
Just an FYI, turning off GPS has been ineffective since 2.2 Froyo. When Gingerbread 2.3 was released like 2+ years ago, it allowed for the GPS to only be used when an app called for it to be used. Otherwise GPS will not do anything unless you pull up an app that calls it to do something.

[Q] Battery drain on stock 4.4.4 / rooted / unlocked / doomkernel

Up to now I'm happy with my Z1C.
But in the last weeks the battery drain went up.
Before that I could get a day and a half to two days of use , I am a moderate user during the day.
Most of the time wifi is off, 4g is off but bluetooth is on, day and night.
Before I had bluetooth turned off when not in the car.
But because I bought a Smartband talk I switched bluetooth to on without turning it off again.
Up to last week the battery was draining faster because of the bluetooth use but it was still good enough for me.
The last weeks / months I downloaded a lot more music on the external card and switched USB use to MSC so I could use it in my car. I listened to music in the car when driving to and from my workplace (1 hour drive single way).
Because it was charging in the morning and in the evening I did not notice any abnormal behavior.
Before I started to use the phone as a mediaplayer in the car I could get 1.5 to 2 days.
When using it as a mediaplayer this did not change, probably because of the charging in the car
Now I switched from workplace and stopped listening to music in the car.
Now my phone lasts for 0.8 up to 1 day max.
When looking at the battery stats it seems to me the mediaserver was eating up a lot.
So I deleted all data from the phone and I did a reset to factory settings. I also removed 80% of the music on the external sd card.
But even then I get a battery drain from 30-35% in about 7 hours time during the night.
I'm running again with only necessary apps installled.
So for the time being no xposed modules, no smartband talk and only switching bluetooth on when using the phone in the car.
But the problem does not seem to be solved.
I have a weak signal at home (1 bar), I had a weak signal at my previous workplace (1 bar) and I have a weak signal at my current workplace (als 1 bar max).
I wonder what is eating the battery so fast?
Is it the weak signal?
Is it because I charged the battery too much (every morning and evening in the car)?
Is my battery dying?
Is it related to an app (multiple apps)?
I have this phone since april 2014.
I am on 14.4.A.0.108 / unlocked / rooted with the doomkernel v22.
So can anybody tell me what monitoring app to use and how to interprete the results from such an app?
I'm in stamina mode.
Estimated lifespan battery is at 2 days when an actual battery percentage of 42%.
I already have betterbatterystats but I do not know if this is the best app for monitoring.
Is there something else I have to look into?
Today I was trying to get my settings in the state I need them to be and when looking at power management / battery usage I can see the screen is the biggest battery user but that seems normal in the current situation.
What about deep sleep, how to monitor this?
How to identify apps being the biggest battery consumers?
What about the apps in manage notifications, there's a lot of them, will it help disabling some / a lot of them?
I really like to get back to charging the phone only once every 2 days.
Any help would really be appreciated.

Better Battery Stats is you friend, it will help you locate what it depleting your battery and keeping your phone awake, as well as listing the deepsleep times .
If you have a rooted phone download Disableservice from the playstore. Reading your post you use a fitness tracker so disabling all of these might not work, but it's worth a go.
Once it's installed, open the system tab, open Google Play Services, then untick (disable) the following:
ConfigFetchService
FitnessSyncAdapterService
GoogleLocationManagerService
GoogleLocationService
NetworkLocationService
ProximitySettingInjectorService
UserPresenceService
WearableControlService
WearableService
WearableSyncService
then reboot your phone.
Disabling these from running should have no impact on your phone, it doesn't for me, and will give you 10-15% more battery life.
Turning of sync on your Gmail also saves a lot of battery, especially if you live in a poor reception area, as it polls the Gmail server every few minutes. Likewise sync on your normal emails. It means you have to check yourself to see if you have any mail, but will put a few extra hours on your battery.
The other thing that extended my battery life was deleting the cached data. Settings\Storage and hold down on Cached data until you get a popup asking you to delete it. I know it sounds bizarre, but it really worked.
Try putting a stock kernel back in for a few days and see if that makes a difference.

Huge battery drain

First let me give you my phones state
Full stock
Was on Feb update, yesterday (after 2 days of the issue) manually flashed through android recovery to march update and bug fixes.
Not rooted.
The past 3 days my nexus 5x battery has been draining very rapidly (97% down to 32% last night), nothing has changed in the system that i've done and no apps updated aside from google docs and amazon I think. I had installed a few new apps (All4 and iPlayer)) but have since removed these to remove them from a list of culprits. Prior to this battery life was brilliant.
Currently in the process of resetting to factory to see if the issue is more deeprooted. If this fails however im not sure what else it could be besides my battery dying.

Check what drains your battery. I had simillar problem.
When I opened the battery screen i saw quite large drain from some service 10112
I was able to open the service and notice it had something to do with GPS and it basically turned the GPS on without my permision (i had gps turned off)
Then i noticed it even set the GPS to high accuracy and that caused the drain. I switched the gps setting to battery saving and the problem was fixed.
However, I still havent fixed it fully because last night it turned itself on again, and my battery dropped from 79% to 65% within hour.
I did the same thing and it stopped the drain again.
Ok thanks will see if it happens tonight after full reset, I did check battery screen but the highest on there was Google play services and even that wasn't that high (4% and some small mah figure).
I permanently leave my location on battery save and previously have had no issues.
Did you restore from a previous backup? Do you have Snapchat?
No backup as not rooted etc. No snapchat.
Just reset device and reinstalled. All seems fine over the weekend no unusual battery drain.

Horrible Battery life on Pixel 2 XL (Pie) (6%/H Drain)

I'm a really light user. I lost a little less than 2% every hour. Basically I use it as a purely communication device. Mostly check facebook messenger, my emails, and occasionally, browse facebook, reddit, 9gag or watch a short youtube video. I stay up about 16 hours on average and at the end of the day, I was regularly around 80%. If I left the phone unplugged overnight while I slept, I only lose about 6% over 8 hours. I was really happy with the battery life. I could very easily see 3 full days out of my phone off a single charge. This was before the Pie update. I tried both the Beta and the Stable once it released, and my battery life has suffered severely. I'm losing 6% every hour, even with the screen off the entire time. At the end of the day, my phone is in the red and has already turned on power saving mode. Android Pie has killed my Pixel 2 XL's battery. I gave it 2 weeks to "learn" my usage habits, but ultimately, I factory reset and even went back to 8.1, but I still suffer from battery issues. Battery usage gives no hint to the culprit. My phone has been unplugged for 7 hours, with 45 minutes of screen on time, and at 54% remaining battery life. Screen On time is the highest battery drain according to the system battery stats. I didn't have this issue until I installed Android Pie Stable.
I have no idea what could be going on, but could really use some help with this.
TL;DR: From 2% to 6% per hour battery drain on Pie. Reverted to Oreo and FR but still an issue. Advice?
Did you check if the WiFi scanning is turned ON? Settings --> Location --> Scanning
I feel its the only issue, nothing should drain your P2XL crazy if apps remaining constant factory reset.
-- personal experience.
I also use it very similarly to you and easily get 2 days with a single charge on Pie. During night my device drains 1 or 2 % only (wi-fi, bluetooth and 4g on), but I have wi-fi scanning off. Google location services are on (including Location Accuracy on). "At a Glance" is turned off but still using stock Pixel Launcher. No hacks/mods installed.
Same except I have at a glance enabled. I disable it 6 hours ago to test and didn't affect battery drain at all. Still losing 6% every hour. Location and scanning settings default except connect to open WiFi is enabled. Right now testing if connect to open WiFi and Bluetooth WiFi location improvement affecting battery drain.
Testing that now. Will report in a day. Heading to bed now. Gn
Does the phone charge all the way to 100%? Does the phone ever turn off by itself when low on battery ~10%? Install and run Accubattery. After a few charging cycles you will get a very close approximation of your battery's remaining capacity as compared with new in mAh. Battery capacity will be located under the health tab. The more charge cycles you monitor, the more accurate it gets, but it will zero in on a number pretty quickly after the first 2-3 charges. Could be the battery... stranger things have happened. This also assumes the user has fully wiped the phone several times going between DP's, Pie and reverting to Oreo.
Does the phone charge all the way to 100%?
- Yes
Does the phone ever turn off by itself when low on battery ~10%?
- Honestly, I don't know. I never let my battery get that low.

I changed some settings and now I'm getting 17mAh drain. Fixed.
The biggest battery sucker for me was having Auto-connect to open wifi enabled and fixing stuck sync tasks. It was preventing my phone from sleeping.
Great to know you were able to stop the draining, I think it might be of great help to other P2XL owners to know what were the settings you changed that fixed the issue.
What settings did you change?
I am having the same issue. I would be interested in hearing your changes as well. Thank you
Download and install Accubattery to monitor your mAh usage. Make sure you check your deep sleep percentage. By the sound of things, your phone is running hot when idle, so it's not sleeping like it should be. You can install Wakelock Detector Lite to see which apps are keeping your phone awake. Once you find out what apps are draining your battery, use the System battery manager in Settings to restrict battery usage for those apps. If that doesn't help, then uninstall the app (unless it is necessary to you). If an app isn't keeping your phone awake, then it may be your system settings. Turn off location scanning for wifi and bluetooth (in the GPS section). Turn off Wifi auto-connect to open wifi. Where I live I have pretty weak cellular connection. I opted to disable Mobile data always active in developer options (Go to about phone, and tap the build number 7 times, then enter your device password). While you are here, you can check Running services in developer options and see what you have running. Also, make sure your accounts aren't stuck trying to sync. If they are, cancel the sync and restart it. Depending on how far you are backlogged, this can take a while. If the sync still gets stuck, try removing and re-adding the account that is getting stuck.
After I restricted/uninstalled the misbehaving applications and tuned the device settings, I'm getting great standby time on my Pixel 2 XL. If I close all my apps before putting the phone back in my pocket, according to accubattery, I'm losing 15mA/h or about 0.4%/h. If I charged my phone to 100%, then unplugged it without using it at all, it would take 10 days for the battery to run out. It's pretty good. As someone who primarily uses their phone as a communication device and research tool, I'm a pretty lightweight user.
+1 What settings did you change?
Yes, please, don't keep us in suspense!
Just got a used one so trying to learn all about getting optimum performance.
