1.28 drains battery like crazy..?

Please check the image. I. Bet you can say at what point i installed the update. And also you will notice that from that point my battery goes draining like crazy
Anyone also experiencing this too? Any solution?

Ive got New screenshots Please take a look at them. As you can see the drainage is still awefull. I have only used it for checking my screen and battery so just small screen time.

What does your percentages for usage look like? Does anything stand out as a cause? It would be good if I could see your percentages

most likely just the power drop while the phone was flashing the update, after a couple of charges you will be fine.
John.

check the new screenshots

Sorry i only read English and bad English
As i said, you will be fine after a couple of charges.

It could be becasue they still have not addressed the issue of the NvCPLSvc.apk power management thing.
It says so in the change log.
Cheers.

I'm getting similar stats to you..
I only got my One X today and updated it straight away to 1.28, from a full charge i've dropped to 60% after 1 hour 15 mins screen on time! About 1 hour 30 mins since i unplugged it..
Should let it improve over a few charge cycles to see improvement.

Let the phone and the battery settle.
U`ll find improvement after 2 charges.

I hope you are right , about an hours browsing on the 1.28 update on a standard unlocked phone and I am down from full to 20% !!
Here's hoping the battery "beds in " a bit better

Can't understand why they didn't change the Nvidia.apk thing... Is it that hard ?!
I'm according to the fact that after 2-3 charges it will get better (not perfect, but better) good luck

Whats the problem?

hmm ic. if its newly installed rom then i think its normal. i also encounters that but after 2 or more charging cycles its back to normal. but since ur using it for almost a week, idk. maybe battery related.

Oh, if someone have counter this before this than i relieve a bit. I have charge more than 5 times and counting maybe..

Turned off again just now, battery still around 60% when turned off.

My original battery got bloated, so I bought a new one, and the phone was turning off on 30% every time, then I called guarantee, they changed the battery to other one and this never happened again.
Maybe the problem is with your battery.

when i flash another rom, the problem still same but different result, the battery percent only decrease, not 0% just like when i posting this.
i already use SGW over one year and nothing happen.
maybe battery problem because when i recheck my battery, it bloating a bit.
tomorrow i go buy new battery and try again. hope this problem settled

Sounds to me like your battery is on it's way out. When my original battery failed I experienced many random crashes, shut downs, reboots - the battery looked fine at a glance, but upon closer inspection (ie taking it out and laying it on a hard, perfectly flat surface) there was just the smallest, tiny amount of bloat starting to occur (barely visible - but enough to show the battery was past it's prime).
I replaced the battery, calibrated it and the problems all went away.

[Q] Rapid Battery Loss & Rebooting Restores Battery?

So, my battery is wack... and I think it's only been acting like this since I went to a KK ROM? Maybe? Feels like it...
I've had this tablet since it was released last fall, and this behavior is very recent.
Anyways, it dies FAST. Like nose dives in a matter of 5-15 minutes. What's even weirder, is that sometimes, if I power cycle the device, it'll jump up by 30-60%. But then just dies again in another 5-15 minutes.
And there's a screenshot after I just power-cycled.
It jumped from 11% to 71%!!
Crazy!
I've also tried letting it get to 5% then charging it to 100%, done that twice. No luck. I don't know if this is related, but if I power it completely off, and plug it in, it turns on... kinda weird. My Note 3 doesn't do that, it just stays off and shows the battery charge indicator.

Hi, I have similar problem and I am with 4.3 android. I have battery loss when I play games. It drops to 2-3% really fast and after reboot it goes up to 35-40%. Once I fully depleted my battery and charge it. This time there were no battery lost. After the second charging problem persists.
If you manage to fixed it please tell us how.

Well, I doubt that I can do that since I have a Custom ROM on my tablet

I have a similar problem with my p600. the tablet is new, got it since a month or less.
at first i was amazed of the battery life i use it a lot for work writing documents and sheets on excel, battery used to perfom quite well giving me more than 5 hours of screen on, but recently the battery starts to drop very fast, now i can barely get around 2 hours of screen on.
i've already done 2 cycles of full discharge and then charge it completely with the tablet turned off. but the problem stills.
also sometimes when i reboot the tablet the battery goes from i.e 20% to 40% after the reboot.
im still looking for a fix or solution, today i found a new official firmware for my model (4.4 firmware for telcel mexico). going to wait until the tablet is fully charged and then flash the new firmware. I dont know if its going to help but i got nothing to lose.
by the way, sending it to semsung is not an option because of knox 0x1

try this, bring life back to battery. If you use the trial version, keep exit and redo it until all cells are done.

Well unfortunately this has not worked....battery is still tanking. last night i played plague for 30 minutes....in 30 mins battery went from 90% to 25%. I think i will try reflashing KitKat....maybe my original update was screwy. If that does not fix it then I guess I will have to call Sammy.

Man i ha e exactly the same problem. I calibrated it some months ago and it seemed to work fine. Now the problem is back.... Dont know what to do... I have tried several apps, though i read google doesn't recomend to use any app to fix the battery... we really need help here

Bumping up I have the same exact problem... any fixes?
Sent from my SM-P600 using XDA Free mobile app

Sorry to bump this, has anyone found a solution yet.
I've replaced the battery 3 times in about 9 months, but had this issue about a yr, was sent back to Samsung who changed the battery and supposedly updated the fw 4.4.2, I have since replaced the battery another 3 times every 3 months, each time either factory resetting or flashing a new rom, currently on official Smp600 5.1.1 BTU rom, today my battery was on 47%, I plugged in charger and was watching/streaming a movie on it, about 80 minutes later the tablet shut off, which was odd it's never powered off while on charge, powered it back on and battery said 19%, my previous issues has been the same as others, it can be on 100%, play a game, or stream a movie,or watch youtube etc and it will nosedive dramatically 20/30% at a time, sometimes within 10 mins it's gone from 100% to less than 30%, it's clear there's some sort of issue if others have it, I was wondering if a thread should be made to list ppl with this issue to see how many there are and go from there.

I've been having the same issue for some time now. Calibrating the battery does help, I don't experience the problem nearly as much after calibrating it. But it'll still nosedive on occasion, maybe once a week. This is the app I use to calibrate it https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration

Huge battery drain

.Hello everyone,
Just got my G3 about 3 days ago, and so far the battery is going really bad for me.THis phone would consume the whole battery in just 6.5 hrs!!
I used to have Xiaomi Mi4 before it and it would easily make it the whole day -some times +18hr- on the same usage connections.
I've tried different roms and kernels, limited the CPU to 1.9GHz, set governor to powersave, set brightness to auto and then to 30% manual, and still all the same, nothing better! I don't play games or use huge apps, just facebook, whatsapp, 9chat, calls, and FaucClock.
On average, I lose +10% of the battery per hour, Is this normal for this device? The battery says it's 3000mAh but it's acting like it's 1450mAh!
UPDATE:
Yesterday I tried to drain the battery to 0% to charge it again by watching a Full HD movie. It consumed about 30% of the battery leaving me with 30%, that was on 02:48AM. Today I woke up at 9:00AM and there was 29% left, meaning it only consumed 1% in about 6hrs. using the phone would consume more than 5%/hr but the standby is getting really good and very stable. I'll be draining the battery and try to recharge it later hopefully it can get better than this.

Thanks for the reply. I really don't know how to read it, so I just attached some pics, I hope they're useful for you.

I have the same, if not worse, battery drainage. I got my phone(new) yesterday. Just 40 minute ago o was charging it and after i plugged out o saw immediately how the battery was draining more like a % per minute . I looked in the the battery section to see that it'll stay on for 3 hours and 40 minutes. Now i'm letting it play on YouTube till the battery is empty-empty , do a recharge and if that is not the case, maybe i just have a faulty battery and hopefully not a faulty phone. Although i looked at the apps that were used in stand-by(over night) and i sow that Google services was using 16% battery in stand-by , something that i never had like that. Yesterday when my phone arrived it had already pre installed Lollipop 5.0 . After connecting to wi-fi the software updated once more with a small file, something like 120-160 mb, i'm not sure exactly. Now it says that it has the latest update - 20h . I'l do a few full discharge/charge cycles and if that doesn't solve the issue it must be the battery or the phone. Either way i hope i'll not end up returning the phone for testing , the though is already infuriating me a little.

I just hope it's the first few days of the battery life and it would get better by time, but tbh this is the first time I see something like this!

I don't know if it helps but I had similar battery drain after I install a new update of Android. It happened after every update.
For me the solution was a full wipe.
After it I can reach ~2days with ~4hours SOT.

Use greenify messenger and whats up are causing all those wakelocks....

At the time i posted here(post #4) my battery was at around 60 percent playing YouTube for the first real drainage of battery science i've got my phone. Now it's at 12 % with 26 minutes estimated till complete drain. I mention i have the speaker on mute. If i had it on the drainage would've been a little faster. Anyway, after the drain i'll recharge the battery and let it overnight in stand by with the wi-fi on. Also the location will be enabled so the data connection even though it's somewhat deactivated by the wi-fi on status. I enabled also bluetooth and NFC although those are more dormant than active. It'll be setted just as i'm using it daily . Now it's 12:14 AM Eastern Europe time. I'll post here the finishing time of charging/letting it in stand by. In the morning (my morning time ) I'll post again the battery percent. I'll use the phone normally with a little bit of everything . Wi-fi will be on all the time, so the voice network and from time to time i'll "simulate" a carrier 4g/LTE data only usage(YouTube, FaceBook and Mail). I'll post againt the time when the battery will be depleted completely.
It's now 01:12 and the battery is empty. I'll charge it and talk to you in the morning.

Check the SD card. do you still have a battry drain if the sd card is in the Phone?
i had the same problem. i toke the sd card out and my Phone was normal again and no overheated Phone.
i formatted my card to NTFS and it worked.

I don't have an SD card.

You have stock firmware?? And try to install os monitor and it tells you witch program is using the most!

On stock rooted firmware

I also don't have an sd card, and of course i did a phone reset before recharging. I'm getting a little worried dough. Last night it finished charging after 1 hour and 50 minutes. I immediately started tu setup the phone with the google account , did a google restore . Also i forgot to tell that i'm on Orange Romania and i do have some bloatware but i disabled all of it just to make sure that those apps won't interfere with my test. Already my battery was at 85% before going to sleep. I mention that my google restore does not take to much time . When i woke up 10.45 AM my time( now is 11.23 AM) the battery was at 75 percent. I stayed a little on YouTube and just answered a 30 second call and it's down to 67 % now. I am getting aggravated. I'll call Orange support to tell the about the situation and i'll ask them if i can firstly try to fix my problem alone by rooting the phone. If they don't like the idea of rooting my phone i'll try a few more charges/discharges .

Install OS monitor!

I'll try it. Thanks! By the way now the time is 15:56 and the battery is at 66%. So it lost 2 percent in 4 and a half hours(stand-by).
Ps: now that i woke it up for writing this post, it's at 63%.

OnePlus 3 battery suddenly dropped to 0% from 50%.

So I am not a heavy user. Usually my phone requires charging once in 1 and a half day. One moment my phone was around 50% charged which some what amused me as I couldn't remember last time I charged my phone.
After half an hour or so, I tried to unlock my phone and was greeted by this ( clicked from Xperia Z2 whose back camera isn't working).
Here is my battery stats.
Any idea what could be wrong? Should I visit the service centre?

are u on oos as i experienced the same on PA rom?

See if the issue persists. Try to slow charge it overnight or leave it on the charger over night just to see if it does help. Even though we reached 100% the phone keeps charging.

Using Freedom OS CE. with franco kernel.
My guess it is caused by franco. But I will wait if it happens again.

i will wait and see if the issue happens again and as i wipe after every charge so corruption of battery stats file is also unlikely and as i happened to us on different setups then it can be firmware related problem from one+(my wild guess).So keep me posted if it happens again and i will do the same.
Sorry for my bad English.

If you have a dead battery this will happen many more times, and yoy won't experience good battery at all.. I bet it is just a one time software error.
