I am so sick of this tablet...

Had to return the first one as the battery dropped so quickly I could see it - dropped by about 5% at a time every 2 minutes or so...
The one I've got now has been working fine (for the last 2 weeks) until today.
Turned the screen off at about 65% battery. Turned it on about 3 hours later and it had dropped to 43% without the screen being used. Mediaserver and Google Services had been using most of it apparently.
Rebooted it. It then went from 43% to 36% to 26% to 22% to 15% to 9% to 2% in about 5 minutes.
How can Samsung release something so useless?? Is it the software??

Wow that's f-ed up sorry about your luck.
htc one

No luck man.
I'm very happy with mine...

Hi. No, not rooted.
The battery stayed at 2% for ages. I then turned it off and on again, and the battery showed as 36% again. It then dropped straight to 23% which is where it is now.
Seems all over the place...

you try a factory reset? worked for my battery drain problem :good:

Not with this one, but I did with the previous one, several times.
It's not acceptable to me to have to wipe my tablet routinely to get it to work properly...
How long has it been since you did the reset?
Thanks

Have you factory reset and not installed any programs to monitor usage?
Perhaps something your installing is doing it. Are you using a microsd card?
I just starting charging my tablet after 1 day and 17 hours with 9 hours and 30 minutes of screen on time.
And I still had 18% battery left. I'm not saying it to brag just that battery life is fine on this tablet.
Until then please search Google for mediaserver battery drain. This is not running on my tablet btw.

Media server can happen if you have some corrupt media file the tablet is trying to read and identify over and over again

Threads like this are always interesting. If every owner on this forum's N10.1-14 performed like OP's don't you'd think it would be on the front page? So OP's issue is something unique. It could be:
A manufacturing issue that affected a batch of N10.1-14's. If OP's exchanging at the same place all their devices could be from the same batch.
Samsung uses different s/w in different regions and perhaps there's a battery draining s/w issue in the particular ROM OP's using. But unless OP's from Antartica you'd think others from his region would be reporting the same issue.
OP's loaded something on his device that's either incompatible with 4.3 or Exynos 5420. A lot of older legacy apps still run on newer Android devices but don't run well and create issues. If OP's using restore his old apps are being installed as soon as he signs in to his Google and/or Samsung account.
Of the three I'm guessng number 3 is the most likely. I have a SM-601 with 130 apps installed, a dozen syncs running, and two Exchange push account always downloading. Used exactly the way I used my N-8000 I'm getting about 10% less battery life. That seems about right to me considering the PPI is doubled, the SoC is more powerful, and I'm using also Samsung's motion, voice, and air sensors which didn't exist on the N-8000.
OP, try setting up the tablet without signing in to either your Google or Samsung account. That'll make sure no apps are installed without your knowledge. See if the battery drain is still there. If it's not, your issue is s/w and not the s/w pre-installed by Samsung. Good luck.

Thanks for the replies.
It seems there are 2 separate issues.
1. The mediaserver battery drain (I do have a micro sd card, but haven't recently added loads of new files or anything). The tablet has run fine for 2 weeks without this issue, and I haven't recently installed any new apps.
2. The fact that the tablet doesn't know how much charge it has - goes from 2% back up to 36% without being charged etc.
I'm not sure what to do. I noticed that google play music was running in task manager so ive disabled that, and have fully run down and am fully recharging the battery. When in plugged the charger in symbol went from showing battery empty to about 20% charged instantly which doesn't bode well...
If I still have an issue i guess I will exchange it a 2nd time for a 3rd unit...
Thanks for the help

Thanks for that mate. I'd already seen that thread but thanks anyway.
Before this issue today I was happy with the battery life. My problem is not a general battery life issue - something is obviously seriously wrong with my unit...

I reset it once, a few weeks ago and its been solid with power usage since.

Perhaps it is being effective by the new Google Play Services, which appears to have a battery draining issue. This started in the last week, I believe.

The battery drain just happen recently, isn't it? I've just bought my Note for 4 days, on the first and second day, the battery is awesome, but from the third day it run down from 45% to 5% in minutes.... I think that related to some update service and happen to massive device recently!

Well, it is a possibility. My first gen Note 10.1 wifi does not seem effected by it. It is on 4.1.2. I also do not think this effects all devices. Wondering if it is a 4.2.2 and up issue or something along those lines. I only suggest it a possibility to check into.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2378962
in here state that the problem could come from the new update of Google Play Store. I did remember that it is updated before the problem appeared (but not so sure). Just remove the update of Play store and see the result. Will report back

Just to update you all in case other people are having the same issue - I disabled google play music, ran thrbattery right down so the tablet switched off, charged back up to 100% and then used it normally. Battery seems much better. Although it did drain really quickly from about 35% to about 5%, but over an hour or so, not in minutes like before.
Weird apps have stopped using all the battery - its now used by about 90% screen, 5% android os etc which seems normal.
Still, there is always the worry that ill get it of its case one day when I nred need to use it and the battery will be flat!

P600 wifi getting 14 hour battery life here. Been using it all day and played some games too. Im happy with the battery life.
If people get together and help make knox proof root, I might be interested in making a rom with all my battery saving goodness in. Or work with some people to make a nice clean, lean rom. Who knows.

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%.

[Q] Problems with month old LG G4

Oj oj people
I've got a bit of a problem with my G4, which is with me around a month and it is fun to use it.
The model is H815, I'm from Cro, Europe.
However..... I do have Greenify, LeanDroid, very little aps installed, only one game, screen brightness is at around 45% and when not in use Data and Wifi are turned off.....
So first week it was so so with battery life, after around week and a half it all went to be quite good, BUT, it the last 3-4 days the G4 has been acting... strange to say.
Usually even if I had Wifi turned on and even if I was connected to any of my nets, over night, let's say 8-9 hours, it went from 100% to 100% maybe 99 in few days but nothing serious, so it was pretty great stuff, also respond was great, in less than a second to say.
Now.... even with turned off Wifi over night, 8h, I lose like 4% of battery, which is kinda 4 times as much as before and I have no idea what's going on. I do have google play games, cuz of PVZ2, and I had to update both the game and that app to play it, but when I'm not using it, they are turned off, force close if I have to, as well as other few google thingys.
Next is, when I opened sms tab it took him like 3 sec to figure out what is happening, the screen was black with only bottom 4 buttons, (back, notification, main screen and multitasking). Happened 2 or so times
So as you can see, I didn't start to use any other new app or something heavy drain and I don't know what it is that's draining the battery faster. I don't use it heavily but it's rather weird as to what is going on.
Also before I forget, in the last few days, the G4 would heat up rather nice, and I don't mean when I'm playing the game with wifi on or shooting 1080p videos, it could be just few mins web browsing and it became rather hot. Didn't scrape of my fingers but it also wasn't "normally" warm so yea.
I don't let my battery to go below 35-30% and charge it to full plus leave it for around 30 mins longer as I've red somewhere that it helps prolongs the battery life in general.
So if any of you would know what is going on or would help me with it all (even reading my "essay") I would be most grateful
Cheers

Ok so you wrote such a log post to describe a "problems" that you have. And your first problem is you lost 4% overnight?
Second problem is your phone hiccuped for a moment when you open the SMS app? No way the G4 sputtered a bit
I don't really see what problem you're having
Sent from my LG-H811 using Tapatalk

Yeah, I stopped reading after I realized the issue was that the phone used 4% overnight..

I would try rebooting the phone to fix the battery issue.
The stock LG sms app is pretty bad imo. After I imported all my messages (few thousands), it felt like I had the phone for 2 years already as it hiccuped. You can try an alternative like Textra which hasn't hiccuped on me yet.
Asides from that, not much you can do without root if you dont want to do a factory reset. I say live with it. 4% isn't bad at all

Do remember that the phone displays 100% for longer than it should.
With the same drain on the battery, you might drop from 100% to 99%. But if you started at 95%, maybe you would see it drop to 91%, under the same conditions.
So if you did not start at 100% one night, that could contribute.

The problem is not that phone used 4% overnight, the problem IS that for no good reason phone started spending more battery life compared to before while I haven't done any major change....
SO
call me crazy
but that is considered normal?

draining battery fast.

First two days I had the phone it had great battery. I was getting 16-18 hours of life with 4-6 sot. Now the last two days at work it's worse than my op2. By the time I got home yesterday I was at like 35%. Previous days I was well over 60.My android system is taking most of the blame. On my good days it was at like 8% when the phone would die. Right now with my phone at 79% it's already at the top with 5%. I've barely used the phone while I'm at work right now. It's been unplugged for 3 hours and my sot is 35 minutes. Not sure if it's got something to do with the ambient display. Maybe finger print scanner. Any one have ideas?

Seems like you had been on LTE for quite long. Mobile data takes pounding on battery life. You will always see android system, android os and Google services etc on battery stat when using mobile data. Not the same case with wifi.

same here
i have mixed net usage with m,mostly lte on and wifi
can anyone have its quick fix pls report asap

Humm I thought it was the other way around. Nevertheless I have WiFi at work. Can't remember if I was on it though. I'll have to test that out.

You don't have to run a custom rom or loose dash charge cause your rooted. I'm still using stock oxygen 3.1.3,and have the basic functions like dash charge working. I'm not sure if you have to be rooted to use gsm, cause I'm always rooted, but it may gave you more specific insight as to what exactly is draining your battery quickly.

You know the image you attached, with the graph on it? Tap that and check the Awake heading. Is it one long solid blue bar? If yes: your phone stays awake (doesn't go in deep sleep mode). Does restarting it make a difference (i.e. does the solid blue bar get broken up)?
The problem emerged on my OP3 as well yesterday AND I had it on my prevous phone (a OPO). On the OPO the problem was that it wouldn't release a wakelock that kicked in during charging. While I haven't explored the problem on my new OP3 enough to know if this is the same problem, here's what fixed it for me if the problem is indeed charger related: when charged to your liking turn off your phone with the charging cable still in. Once turned off, remove the cable and restart the phone.

Are you talking about under history details? I'll check tonight once my phone is drained. I did a battery cycle yesterday. Let it die and charged to 100 while it was off. We'll see how it goes today. And your saying it was an actual charger problem?

Heavy battery drain might have to do with the "pocket problem". The fingerprint sensor constantly activates and is not properly blocked by the proximity sensor.
There are several threads and posts about it, here and on the oneplus forums...

Yea I had that once in a while with my op2 I'd take the phone out of my pocket and it would say too many attempts at the scanner. Nothing on this phone like that though. And of course today is a different story with the battery lol its good today. So maybe it's while I'm at work. Idk it's odd. I need some more testing. Currently I'm at 9.5 hours on battery with 56% left and almost 3 hours sot. I'll see how this week goes at work and see if I can diagnose anything

I've been having this problem as well, losing as much as up to 20% of battery overnight, while it was doing absolutely nothing. I've tried a couple of things, but last night it 'only' drained 5%, betterbatterystats reports 0.6% of drainage per hour.
I think this is due to the weather option in the launcher, could anyone else try turning it off and see if battery life improves significantly?

You don't even need to do that. You can just check it after an hour or even less. Just put the phone away for an hour with the screen off and check history details.
And your saying it was an actual charger problem?

Not quite. I'm saying it was a wakelock that kicked in during charging and that wasn't released when I took the phone off the charger. I don't know if it was the charger caused the wakelock.

Great for two days now I'm leaving work with 45% battery and only an hour and a half sot. Unplugged for 9 hours. Idk I feel like it's hit or miss

Screen On Time

Hi. Im currently on beta 9. The battery life sucks for me. Im cirrently on 50% with only 1hr and 30 mins of screen on time. I've attached ss. Im only browsing the net. Wifi is on all the time. How do i fix this?

Guys please help. I dont know how to fix this.

You're going to have to do some further diagnosing using a wakelock detector to figure out what exactly is causing the drain. That is an unusual drain by Android System.
I've had no issues with battery drain on OB9, mind you, I never do a restore (ie. titanium) and always clean flash.

I tried doing a clean flash. I wiped data, system, cache, dalvik and then flashed ob9, flashed twrp again, flashhed sr5 then when i press reboot system, it says no os installed. :/ Also, im not draining battery during sleep. It's when the screen is on. Im losing 1 percent for like every 3-5mins.

1 percent every 5 minutes is 500 minutes for 100% which is 8.3 hours of screen on time.
worst case scenario, 300 minutes = 3 minutes per 1% - 5 hours screen on time.

Im mistaken. I just checked in bbs. I've lost 5% in 12mins. I've computed. That would only last me 3hrs screen on time. And om just using the internet with wifi.

That doesn't sound too unusual, depending on what apps you have running and syncing on your phone.

Really? I'm seeing people get 5-6 hrs screen on time easily.

I have had flashed leaked OB9 though.

SoT is really a hit and miss and vulnerable to too many factors to be used as a quantitative measure of battery life/performance.
My day to day activities include text messaging (a lot of it), reading on my phone, minimal social apps (facebook and twitter), and non hardware intensive games and I can push out 4-6 hours of SoT (adaptive brightness on). If I put the phone into airplane mode and watch movies stored on my phone, I can easily hit 8-11 hours of SoT.
No matter which way I look at it, this phone gets me through my entire work day and then some on a full charge.
I'm used to charging my phone once a day and this phone does the job well for my use. And Dash Charge is phenomenal if you need a quick boost.
