I am in the same boat. I pretty much have disabled everything I can think of and have started carrying around a battery pack because of this. I pretty much have to charge my phone 2-3 times a day. I use my phone primarily for texting and listening to audiobooks. every once in a while I will watch some youtube but not that much.
That's why I had to give mine up for the Nexus 6p the battery life was getting ridiculous even with the fast charging barely helped the situation.
Weird. My battery lasts most of the day with moderate to heavy use. I disabled almost everything that I could in application manager.

that is more worrisome, phone is getting heated and sometime fast charging does not work, should I do factory reset and give another try. Just do not want to rely on factory reset every time I have issue.

For me the fast charging worked for about a week, and then the default samsung cable stopped charging quickly. Once I changed the cable the actual charger worked no problem but still it is annoying how fast this battery drains.

same here! I really regret buying this phone, seems impossible to get root on it, no custom rom, and the battery drains crazy! when I walk my dog & just put the phone in my pocket it's getting so damn hot without even use it!!

Some times when I reboot my phone my battery drops any where from 10-70% this happens on all rooms and all kernels. Is it just miss reading after reboot and I still have the amount of battery I had before I rebooted? Our does it actually get drained that much?

I don't want some one to say that after rebooting that its showing the actual correct battery % because that's total crap. If I had not restarted my phone it would not have had this battery drop our lost battery fast. My battery always steadily drains. The other thing is it seems like when my battery drops the remaining % of battery drains way slower of a speed. probably cause there is more battery than it is showing I so frustrated its nuts please any one and every one help me out. I need to solve this! Tia!

Maybe an overclocking kernel that you are running cause this. Sometimes this happens to me too, what i do is, i connecte my charger to the phone then reboot. Either it shows a higher % or stay the same.

To me, I think it is a miss read, on my Epic I would get the same results and I would be like what the heck? Lets say I was at 80 then I rebooted and it went down to 15 I rebooted again and it would back up to 70, so I try not to reboot as often cause if it goes down alot after reboot I might be SOL without a cord near by to bring me back up to life.
I also have done all the calibrate stuff on the battery, but every once in a while after a reboot I get the hard drop on %.

I'm definitely going to give this a shot. You both mentioned having a charger near by and it can't hurt. thanks guys!
Your battery stats need to be wiped.
HERE is a post with a easy way to do so. If you read the entire thread I wouldnt do as the OP did and flash EG12 Modem! Most users on EG12 have issues with calls not coming through while screen is off on the device, unless it is plugged into charger. Device does not "sleep" while plugged in therefor calls come through like normal.
Like many here I've been having battery drain issues since the day I purchased the Galaxy Nexus. I also purchased the extended battery since day one. I've been reading through every single forum on how to reduce the battery drain and none seems to have worked for me. I've tried switching to wifi, 3g only, no email push, no google+, etc and my phone at 100% battery would lose almost 30% within 2 hours idling. Then I was looking at the settings and I came across the Developer Options/Background process limit and limited my background process from Standard to At most limit to 1 process and my battery has improved tremendously. Prior to making the change the Android OS was using 80+ % on idle (Wifi or 3g didn't make a difference), now it's uses around 20 or less. On idle I'm seeing around 4% or less an hour vs 15% battery drain.
Please remember this may or may not solve YOUR battery drain, but it has definitely helped mine and I just wanted to share with the community on what else you can try.
I've had pretty good results with my battery. I think some of ya'll are either just playing around with it too much or have some energy-sucking apps out there.

Or that you don't have a connection to the data network.
Just say'n. (I do the same thing at night)
I had Wi-fi enabled for 12 hours, and the battery only dropped to around 85%. I have been on 4G for 5 hours now, and the battery is now down to 13%. I'm going to use a Wi-fi/3G combination tomorrow. Oh and I also have my phone rooted/underclocked to 900Mhz.

I've been using it for 3 days and have had no issues. Anyways its as easy as checking the standard limit if you ever wanted to revert back.
Hi Guys,
Got a problem here. This will be my 2nd Note2 after sending it back to Samsung couple of months ago. It was charging this morning and tonight after a long day of work, I decided to play some game on it. Noticed that the battery is on 15% I decided to charge it. After 30mins I checked the status of the battery and to my amaze it was not charging! I tried 3 different cables, 2 different chargers, and none of them works. Tried my cables and chargers to a different phones and it does work. I connected my note 2 to my laptop, and it does not recognized it. Tried to charge it while it is turned off, I can see a battery icon, but it does not show the charging battery icon. It will disappear in a few seconds. Please see image below:

It's a rooted phone. Tried to clean the charging port. I even opened it without damaging the warranty sticker, and I can definitely say that there's no moist inside. But just to be sure, I blow it using a hair dryer with the temp off. But with no luck. I used to experienced this a few weeks ago where went back charging after a few minutes. But this time it's worst, it's been an hour and a half and still it is not charging. I can't do a full wipe yet since the battery got 9% left on it.
I know that if it will really not charge, to resolve it..it's either I send it back again to Samsung, replace the board myself (hope it works), or buy an external battery charger. Unless there's more that I can do to fix it.

I did but to my amazed after leaving it alone the whole night, It went back charging again. Yes I am glad that it's working again but I am worried it might happen again sooner or later. I have read some threads with the same issue and with the same outcome, I really want to know what's behind this.
So if its under warranty unroot and monitor

Phone can not be charging when off
Hello all,
The problem is i can not charged my phone when the phone is switched off. When i inserted the power cable it will automatically switch on the phone then it will charging normally. I am on Phoenix ROM V18.8. Your kind feedback is much appreciated. Thanks.
Im not really sure why, but my phone has been acting very strange for the past week. If I restart my phone it displays a different battery percentage than it was before. For example, I charged my phone up to 100%. Then when I restarted the phone, it was at 81%. I'm not really sure how to go about fixing this. I cant re-calibrate my battery because it will randomly restart and then have 5% battery left, then continue in a cycle of turning on and then restarting. Is my battery itself the issue? Or should I try completely resetting my phone by going back to the factory kmz file? I tried switching roms and I still had the same issue.
Heres an example of the ridiculous jumps in battery life after a re-boot.

Before you buy a new battery I would recommend using the tot over the kdz. If it still has problems pick a day you don't absolutely need your phone and let it boot loop until it completely drains the battery then fully charge it before you turn it on. Fully draining the battery is bad for it but if you might need to get a new one anyway its not a issue.

Yeah my battery life is still being weird after doing both of those things. Guess Ill need a new battery. Thanks!
Hi guys
I've had my HTC 10 for over 2 weeks now, and as I decided to change from iOS to Android the first few days/week the battery would only last me barely 14 hours.
However, the last few days were very impressive with the phone lasting me 2 days and 12 hours with normal usage (no games and not heavy internet browsing).
But today something weird happened as I took the phone in the morning to go to work and at 10:30/11:00 my phone was down to about 60% without me doing anything to it and without a specific reason to it.
I will attach some screenshots to see if anyone had the same problem/issue.
I would appreciate any feedback you may have!

Did you try to restart the phone? Something is keeping your phone awake. A restart every couple of days is always helpful.
Yes, I did.
However, the phone's battery still only lasted until 7 pm. Which is really weird as I literally almost didn't use it...
Will see how it goes today
My battery life did not last very well either when K first got my 10. I'm an HTC lover by the way. In my experience, I've learned you really need to optimize the controls and settings after you purchase the phone to get the most out of your battery. I restrict a lot of app permissions that ask for location so my phone isn't constantly locating itself on GPS. Same for Wi-Fi. I turned off the auto scan for the Wi-Fi cause that absolutely toasts your battery. And then I turn off vibration feedback for touching keys just to conserve even more. I moderately use my phone throughout the day checking mail, texting, browsing the web, facebook, xda, altos adventures, a YouTube video here and there. I get to my office at 4 in the morning, don't get home til 3 pm and my phone still has anywhere from 45 - 60% charge. I think that's great considering my M8 normally has 15 - 20% when I would get home. Just tinker with the controls for a bit. Maybe I'm wrong but this is what worked for me
Yes, I understand and I have done so by restricting must apps and by having the same constant brightness and normally (as it happens today) the phone after 12 hours still has 50% battery. But it was that episode that literally was eating away the battery without me using the phone at all!
Thanks for the replies so far
