Battery drain problem! - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

Hi Everyone
My OP3 is on stock rom(OOS 3.2.6) and recovery .. my battery drains very fast while using mode.. it drains 1% on 1 min usage like Facebook, game and Instagram. any ideas and solutions.
Thanks.

We need screenshots of battery usage. Instal gsam battery monitor. After a day send us the logs. We cant help you otherwise. We need details my friend

I need to do this too, mine drains like crazy now and it used to not. I'm on vacation in the bahamas. I have to sim in, just on wifi and I drain like 20% in an hour. I have turned things off like Bluetooth, location and so on and it hasn't helped. I uninstalled apps like Facebook in hopes to stop it but the issue remains. Just installed that battery monitoring app... Hope it will point to the culprit

Solution for overnight battery drain.. Tested and working!!!

Whats up guys.. I have a one x and my battery just drains when i go to sleep... Around 20-23 percent.. Even with power saver on and all toggles off.. I tried many apps just to prevent this and still its the same result.. I heard about this app and i just want to share it to you.. Battery drain is down to 4-5 percent within a 10 hour period.. Thats just great!!! App is called Greenify and it hibernates your apps than drains battery.. Have a try and let me know.. Support the dev as well.. Cheerios!

Been using this for a while and it works well. Just understand what your 'greenifying' so you don't think apps are broken as a result.

Does your battery drain even with screen off at night too bro?
Thanks for sharing, this is sort of stuff I looking for
Anyway, I prefer to solve the problem without this kinda application first, I'll try it once I'm at dead end

Not hugely like yours but I use it among other things to get a good full day use out of my phone without limping towards end of the day.
I would use gsam to identify the app drain at night and greenify to help if you can't stop it with the app settings or a fresh install.

I used wake lock and saw google maps draining so much of my battery and I disabled it and so far 4 days battery is good... I mean it doesn't drain. Hope it works.
I use this Greenify with Deep Sleep battery saver at night, Wifi drains alot of unnecessary power in the night, deep sleep turns on wifi and sync every X hours. Managed to get 1 day and 11 hours with total of 3 hours screen time(i use my phone as a PDA not as a high performance device)

[Q] Battery Drain Issue

I am trying to troubleshoot my battery drain issue so I have been inserting a fully charged battery into my Note 2 just before bed.
Stock 4.1.2 ROM
Rooted
Night 1
Before bed: 100% battery, airplane mode
Wake up 7.5 hours later: 100% battery life
Night 2
Before bed: 100% battery, WiFi connected, background sync enabled
Wake up 7.6 hours later: 54% battery life
I have Greenify and BetterBatteryStats and still can't figure out what is sucking down the power.
Sync Interval:
Twitter: 4 hour
Facebook: 30 min
Touchdown HD: Push (exchange)
Reddit News: 12 hours
Any help would be appreciated!
I think you really have nearly answered your own question - it's the syncing that's killing your battery. FB is notoriously bad at draining a battery all on its own and the others may be bad too. The dead giveaway is the phone isn't deep sleeping anymore with sync on. Keep up your experiments but freeze each app/process in turn to see how bad each one is and you'll find out. No need to leave it over night - an hour or two should be plenty to find out. In fact, if you have your phone set for max battery life, it should go into deep sleep within minutes of locking it. Personally I only sync manually and that's including email - but I'm not too plugged in so I don't mind checking a couple times a day manually. It does mean killer battery life though! Really any process that is constantly waking up your phone will do the same thing as fb - Google Now with location history on is another bad one.

I use fb and I get no battery drain from it
Still unsure about which app is the main culprit. Facebook seems like it could be the biggest problem. Attached is my dump from BBS (BetterBatteryStats) I tried the same thing as the night before except I did the following
Facebook Sync: Never
Twitter Sync: Never
Touchdown HD: Push (exchange)
Reddit News: 12 hours
Night 3:
100% battery before bed, background sync enabled.
52% Battery by wake up.
NOTE: 10076 (Wifi) (com.android.vending.Google Play Store): 86.0 MBytes 95.3% was my apps updating just after boot.After all apps were done updating, I put the phone to sleep until morning.
Things I am going trying.
Freeze Samsung Push
Freeze ChatOn
Greenify Facebook
You need to understand that virtually any app that has the ability to poll your phone and push updates to it automatically without you visibly seeing it is going to drain your battery. This includes:
1. GPS
2. Having your data on in general (networks push packets to each other to stay within protocols regardless)
3. Google Accounts (syncs your calender, contacts, people, etc.)
4. Google Now
5. Mail
etc, etc.
I know this is a little off subject but will face book still drain Battery even if you have location off and sync off?
Facebook Messenger was an issue. It kept waking up my device. I have been doing some testing though and have had almost no luck until tonight.
I disabled WiFi before bed with 100% battery. 7 hours later, 91% battery.
I need to find which apps are using WiFi so heavily.
Go grab greenify from play store

I have been using Greenify the whole time. Currently, it looks like when on WiFi apps are going crazy with connecting and waking up the phone. On Mobile, I got much better battery life.
Try backing up all ur data on internal and SD card.. Then do a complete fresh install.

Yes. I have the same experience. When WiFi is on, the battery life is much worse.

Ok Wi-Fi being on won't kill your battery. Maybe you need to set your to, keep Wi-Fi on during sleep= NEVER. That'll help your battey life some what..

Battery life issues

Hi,
Something seems to be draining my battery. I froze QuickRemote apps, it didnt improvement.
Any ideas? This way since i bought it
I turned of sync in the settings. And I described services with the built in task manager. Long press home button then tasks manager. Then hit the menu key. You will see a list of everything with services. I checked almost all of mine then hit OK.. It keeps those spots listed from running background services. Helped My battery life out..

I am also facing the battery drain issue and wifi stuck during browsing or downloading. Stand by time is also not good 7% drain in 7 hour. How can i find the issue is in battery or is hardware problem?
Charge your device up by to 100% and then fully discharge your battery to recalibrate the battery. I'd say try this two times.
Also, one thing weird about this device is, turning on WiFi drains the battery faster than using LTE.

I get like 15hr of medium to heavy use with mine

Its probably because of the value pack update. Its modem causes constant wake locks. Going back to the original stock modem will fix that.

Flash the official stock rom fully discharged the battery and charge it to full. Play music use wifi half an hour and medium use. Attaching pics. Is it ok now or ?

Standby drain

When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the OnePlus X's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Absolutely awful. I have probably Play Services drain in OOS2.2.1-x (also present in the to roms before this)
(no root or such). See this thread about it.

Play services goes crazy everytime I turn on mobile data. In wifi, it never appears in battery stats but if I use mobile data, this stays on top of the list. I don't know what the problem is, I have used almost all the solutions but nothing works.
On wifi, battery drains is hardly 1-2 %, but mobile data is continuous downwards slope. I have instances where I turned on mobile data in office hours and hardly touched it for 10-15 mins. By the time I reached home, it was down 50%.
Yes. Since 2 weeks I have battery drain like hell. Android OS and Kernel (Android OS) are sucking about 30%. Can't make it to a normal work day. I'm down to 35% at this moment with 46 Minutes SoT. This sucks so hard....
Phone is always awake
The phone never sleeps and is always awake. I have just rooted, so that I can try out better battery stats and find out if there are any wakelocks. But this should not be the case for a stock OS.
Very disappointed. Barely gives me 4-5 hrs of standby time.

This is caused by the mobile radio active bug, and it's present in every Android ROM. Google doesn't fix it despite it has been reported by a lot of people...

I turn off Google back up data. This seems to help for I don't have any serious drain. Also automatic update in playstore.
Its all depends on cellular network reception and range when u r in low range and still tries to use mobile data or if there is a frequent change in towers, battery drains fastly than usual..
The combination of mokee os, partical kernel, naptime and some changes within the google.xml file
my battery stand-by is really good
That graph shows a low use period only 2 h on Screen time
Lol I got the best idle combo and have essentially stopped idle battery drain when cell data is off...

5 days if I keep battery saver on, no leakage whatsoever
With WiFi you always will get a good battery life without do anything, unless you have any App that causes wakelocks. The problem is when you use mobile data... The bug is present since Lollipop in every phone and it doesn't seem to be fixed by Google...
Even Xperia phones with Stamina mode are suffering the annoying bug ?

I'm curious, what changes in the google.xml file?
Nevermind, I found a post about how to disable GCM through Google.xml. I don't feel like crippling my phone's ability to receive messages while it's in my pocket.

The changes prevent Google services from beeing immun against doze and everything else
So your massenger Mails will get thedelay of doze intervall.
SMS anx phonecall and so on will work all the time.

It will prevent messages from any GCM enabled app and I know quite a few of the apps I use go through GCM. I get okay battery life though so it's not a big worry.

I've tried to change the xml file but google services (mobile radio active bug I think) is still there and the battery keeps drainig: 16% of battery usage instead of 5% of screen. Any other methods to fix that bug?

Tested also with the same results.
I don't think no one but Google can fix it, and for some strange reason is not interested in do it [emoji58]

I've found some improvement by going to App->Google Play Services-> Data usage and disabling mobile data but it doesn't really fix the problem... My X keeps draining battery when the screen is off

Battery Life

So I have been having problems with battery life for a month of so. I had google call me today from the support setting. They had me put the phone in safe mode to see if that would help. It seems to have fixed my problem. Its only been about 5 hours but it would seem that my battery is holding way better then I have seen in a while.
Is there a good app to see what may be may battery drain cause? I have taken my phone out of safe mode and uninstalled some apps in hope of finding the problem one.
Am I missing something else here? If I get good battery life in safe mode it's more then likely an app doing it?
Thanks
Maybe Gsam battery monitor in store...
Some stuff you can check in Android here

Yeah that's one of the best. If you're not rooted make sure you read the third op. It will tell you tell to how to adb so you get the proper stats.

So Google tech I think lead me in the right direction. I solved my battery problem and my blue tooth problem. It is SO much better. I was note was using handcent next SMS. I left it off and started reinstalling apps. With out it installed, My phone is working better then it has in a long time.
So in 5 hours of lite use I still have 83% left. yesterday it would have been 40%. 1 bad app causing all that problem
