Battery Saving mode not working as expected in stock OxygenOS - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I got my OnePlus 3 nearly 4 days back from the date of this post and I have been experiencing issues with the "Battery Saver" mode. When enabled, I still get all the notifications and from applications like WhatsApp, Facebook, etc. leading to battery drain issues and poor user experience.
Check attached screenshot for more details. I was in battery saving mode and still got a WhatsApp notification, and with 95% of charge and it shows me 4hrs of standby time.
Please guide me at the earliest if this is a problem with the device(H/W) or the operating system, so that I can ask for replacement if required.
Current OxygenOS version : 3.2.7
P.S. I moved on from Nexus 4 to OnePlus 3

Your OP3 likely is fine. You probably have an app not behaving well. I would try a wakelock detector or some battery savings tips posted in the forums. You could also try greenify and/or the kernel governor profiles listed in the news section. Some members have their device so well optimized they are getting 7-10 hours SOT. I am sure with a little more reading you will come across a solution that works for you.

I also moved from N4 to the OP3 and am loving it. I get 7+ hours of SOT.
You can do a factory reset and check. You can also calibrate the battery once by allowing the phone to reach 0% charge and shut down automatically. Then charge it to 100% while it is off and when fully charged, boot up the phone.
Most probably your issue should be solved.

Thanks for sharing,
I too loved my rooted Nexus 4.
And I think that I am getting a better battery backup on my new OnePlus 3 since past two days after using Greenify and by calibrating phone's battery(I was avoiding Greenify to benchmark this phones performance ).
What's still bugging me, is that after doing some comparison tests on other phones, when the "Battery Saver" mode is ON and I am on "mobile data" I still get application notifications on my device, which is in contrast to how other devices behave.
Behavior was similar when "Battery Saver" mode was ON and I was on "WiFi".
Devices on which I tried were OnePlus X, Moto X Play, Moto E3.
I have checked the battery optimization option, nothing there. I hope I am making sense !

Hi,
Thanks for sharing,
Yeah I am regular follower of XDA and used some nice optimization apps(greenify, wake detecter, leandroid, xposed,etc.) myself earlier on my rooted Nexus 4.
Whereas in my new OnePlus 3, what's bugging me is this :
After doing some comparison tests on other phones, when the "Battery Saver" mode is ON and I am on "mobile data" I still get application notifications on my device, which is in contrast to how other devices behave.
Behavior was similar when "Battery Saver" mode was ON and I was on "WiFi".
Devices on which I tried were OnePlus X, Moto X Play, Moto E3.
I am starting to believe that this should be a software bug and not hardware issue, but wanted to be sure and learn from the community here if they have faced something similar.
I have uninstalled some apps to get a better feel for this devices performance while its still in warranty.
I have also started using Greenify to get a better battery saving experience, which I was avoiding just to benchmark my device's performance.

[Q] PowerManagerService wakelock

I am monitoring my battery through BetterBatteryStatus. I see that the PowerManagerService kernel wakelock is keeping my phone from going to sleep. It keeps the phone on for nearly 120 mins in a day. Any idea of what that could be? I suspect that it is due to the Smart Stay feature of Galaxy S3 and I just disabled it now.
I'm getting this on CM 10.1, so no power stay. Wondering what it is too though.
PowerManagerService is basically a catch-all for partial wakelocks (wakelocks requested by non system apps). To see which apps are actually requesting the wakelocks, go to the Partial Wakelocks screen.

Is there any way to drill down this service and detect what exactly is draining the battery?

Use Better Battery Stats. instead of looking at the Kernel Wakelocks, switch it to partial wakelocks, and if I understand correctly, the sum of the partial wakelocks is effectively the powermanagementservice wakelock
Just wanted to say that i too had a lot of partial wakelocks draining battery on my SGS3 CM11 (using ART) but I've managed to solve the problem via cleaning the cache in settings->storage. Since then, the CPU is awaken only 19% of time and my batt last 5/6 days with WiFi, Now etc.. (I have a 7000mh zerolemon)

Have you seen any benefits by switching to ART?
If I clean the cache, what will it delete? Will I lose all my App settings and game levels? I have about 54Mb in there.

I just tried clearing and a message came up saying "Security policy restricts clearing of this app's cache."
Is this normal? How can I find out which app is causing the problem?
I have a Samsung galaxy note 2 and every time I lock lock my phone it suddenly turns right back on. It's been happening for two days now. I've tried factory reset and hard reset.. nothing seems to work. Looked at several forums but none seem to help either. Use wake lock app and it says this ..see attachment
Same here with various audio partial wakelocks that add up to 12 days of kernel wakelocks. This started when I upgraded to:
gapps-kk-20140606 & cm-11-20140611-snapshot-m7-snapshot kernel 3.0101-cyanogenmod-g329d6a1 build03 #1
I have gmail sync disabled but contacts sync on. I notice CM have added apollo to the lockscreen so this could be a bug I need to search for

I'm on HTC 10 and have the same issue with huge amounts of wake locks. The device basically never goes into deep sleep.

What do mean by 'better' and 'wonderfull' specifically?

Zenphone 2

I have a few questions before I get a ZF2
How is the battery life now ? Did they fixed the battery drain ?
Is Lolipop 5.1 available for this phone ?
Did they improved the camera ? I remember some reviews complaining about the lack of DR in most pictures.
Thank you.
There is no battery drain on this phone. You will always find people complain about battery drain on every smartphone out there.

you should check Android authority's review and tons of people are complaining about the battery life. Maybe you got the phone with an update preinstalled ? That would be a good news !
Are you a moderate user like me ? If you are, how much battery do you have left at the end of the day ?
Thank you
I have it for a month now, got it with an old firmware, now i'm running latest. I get 6 - 7 hours sot over 24 hours. Also, don't use the integrated Asus task killer, battery saver and autostart manager. They only drain battery. I rooted and installed a custom rom that has almost all Asus apps removed but i didn't have battery problems on stock rom either. There is an "android system" that is showing on top of battery usage but it is not a problem for me as it only drains 2-3% over night. I olso turn on data, wifi or gps, only when i need them. I always get top battery life on every smartphone i have, i don't think this is coincidence or luck. The drain is exactly the same as on every other powerfull smartphone on the market.
This phone receives software updates every two weeks and is getting better and better. It just got a new update today if you look in general section. What other oem updates their flagship so often? ?

As previously mentioned, there is no extra battery drain on this phone. It holds up to a good 5-6 hours on daily use. It is an amazing device except for the camera, which is the only bad thing I find about the phone.
Incase you're wondering, ZenUI is AMAZING! I don't know why everyone hates on it, but I've used almost EVERY manufacturer's edition of Android and ZenUI is by far the best. It is the most customizable, it looks the cleanest, and it takes medium amounts of RAM. I say 'medium' because HTC takes A LOT, Sony is whatever, LG is okay, and Samsung takes TOO MUCH.
I feel like ZenUI combines the best in all of the skins and features into 1 neat package that is highly customizable. NOT TO MENTION, you get tap 2 wake STOCK while I had to custom ROM custom Kernel my HTC in order to get a battery hungry and impractical version of it.
Just buy the phone, and make sure to get the 2.3GHz/4GB RAM version.
Enjoy

I'm running stock and get ALMOST what he's getting with stock kernel.
The key is to get root and uninstall/freeze any ASUS apps you don't need/use, install Xposed and use Greenify to freeze apps after they are closed, and finally, set proper battery options such as disabling WiFi & 4G when the screen is off. I need constant email notifications so with the automatic Data Disabling option, I set the GMAIL app as its exception and I continue to get notifications at 10 minute intervals. I assume it disables the networks but re-enables them momentarily and lets GMAIL sync, then disables again. I've never seen this done before especially as a STOCK option.

there is no battery draining (for now) when both are enable anyway, so I dont see why I should turn it off. The battery start draining fast as soon as Im using it. It is by far the worst battery life I ever got.
The good news is I can apparently return the phone at no cost, not even the shipping. I will know more next week. Hurray !

Standby Drain Problem - can't find the reason

Hey guys,
i recently got a HTC 10 cause Ive dropped my Galaxy S7 in water. (insurance)
Besides that the HTC is noticeable faster, the standby drain drives me crazy.
HTC 10 @ Viper ROM with elementalX Kernel
1) What the hell is "BatteryServiceUpdateStats_3"? in 16 hours, it causes over 600 wakelocks per hour. Maybe this is my draining problem? In the Battery Historian screenshot you can see, that my phone is constantly doing something because of this process.
2) Why is there an "unknown" entry at "Kernel Wakeup Reasons"? 287 per hour... wtf?
3) In GSam you can see, that "Android OS (Kernel)" is (always) the top process...

Thankyou in advance, i can't find more tools to analyze this strange behaviour....
Edit: so i checked Battery Historian with active/inactive WiFi... and what do I see? Yep, much less wakeups from BatteryServiceUpdateStats3 & generally less Wakelock time..... why???

You might have this problem. I have it too and it's infuriating. I've pretty much stopped using WiFi unless I'm charging. Really spoiled my experience with this phone.
Do you have "ok google" hot word detection enabled? That was causing me some serious wakelocks, and I had forgotten I had enabled it to play with, it's usually not something I use or want. I'm still not sold on Google Home being a good thing because google knows everything there is to know about me. I'd rather some devices not know the pitch of my farts or where my girlfriend hides her phone when she has no pockets.
My battery life was still pretty decent though, amazing actually considering it was staying awake and always ready for my next command, but I know with it not running it will be much better.

You could have shown more infos from Battery Historian
If you wanna know what a proper Standby looks like, you can take a look at mine:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc...ark-thread-t3376159/post68929720#post68929720
but yeah.... there are a FEW known issues with HTC10 Standby....
A) 4g might cause more Batterydrain than 3G, but that was an early issue, and mainly on American Carriers.
B) WiFi does have shîtload of wakeups you cannot control. ExKernel has wlan_rx and wlan_ctrl divier options, set both to 8 (maximum) might help.
C) If you have Access to your router, maybe deactivating IPv6 can reduce WiFi Battery Drain.
To your 3 Questions.....
1)Already answered here:

Power Nap [Xposed Module] also blocks them. But it doesn't matter. Because they do not wake the phone, they happen when the phone gets awaken by something else.
Check this out (With Power Nap enabled and What's app excluded)
As you can see, almost no Userspace Wakelocks:
As always Google Services is the only thing you simply cannot shut up, no matter what
But yeah, the Problem is on the Kernel Level....
You see a Normal Wake due to an UserSpace Wakelock:
And one that's happening due to Kernel:
So as long as you have these Kernel wakes, the BatteryServiceUpdateStats_3 will activate at the same time. Batterylife itself is not really affected.

2) Wish i knew what these Unknown Wakeups are.... Wish i knew!
3) i don't really like GSAM, i prefer BetterBatteryStats.
What does the Battery Historian say about CPU usage by App?
Hi, did you find any solution? same thing is happening in my lenovo k6 power but only when i use jio sim. if i don't use sim there is no battery drain in standby. check my attached screenshot of battery historian.

Hi try to reinstall other kernel, im using CleanSlate v2.2.0 now so far superb. and also install htc bost to sure not eat so much RAM usage.
Last time using elemental kernel but im lazy to configure, therefore battery drain quite fast even in standby mod.

[Q] Custom ROMs and battery life

I've been using Resurrection Remix and Lineage on my Helium since I got it and found the battery life to be pretty bad, 1.5 days max so I have to charge every night.
Would switching to the standard Miui increase my battery life at all?
I saw one reviewer was getting 3+ days with Miui.

Even if 1,5 days isn't any bad average by using the device in a normal way I'll show you here how is going to me on Miui9 last update 7.9.7(I've restricted some apps and services useless for me)

I have been using RR since last year and no battery problems. Power consumption between 0.1-0.4% per hour depending on exact configuration and time of day.
Consumption per hour is between 4-9% depending on usage.
You should check your configuration.
You are not alone in this. I have a lot of optimizations in background on my Mi Max RR (3G/4G only on demand, WiFi off when screen is off, no background push notifications or syncing, only when screen is on, lots of alarms and wakelocks blocked). My best is 2,5 - 3 days of phone uptime with up to 8h SoT.
Back when I was using MIUI 8 and 6.0 Android I was able to get insane battery results (3 days of phone uptime and 10-12 SoT without locking wakelocks, alarms or disabling sync/push notifications).
Those are my battery results back from MIUI (1st cycle so not much done with settings yet): https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68041966&postcount=6
I was never able to repeat this with any custom ROM.

Neither you can with current MiUI. With specific CPU governor settings and target restrictions you can easily climb to 10+ h SOT. With complete setup (governor, HPM scheduler & hotplug) it will go up to 12~13h of SOT. If you go extreme & not much useful for anything other than a light use it can go up to 16~17 h. All well documented on a thread hire.

Modifying the QC power init script would be a best way.
where do I get the specific settings for such and is it edited using kernel adiuotor?

Only a CPU governor part is editable by Kernel Auditor and similar rest is known to get problematic & overwritten (thanks to the SE Linux protection over the sys tunable's introduced in N). You can find settings in a power/performance thread.

Battery drains fast ( + screenshots)

Hi,
I noticed lately that my battery is draining fast. Like 1 percent for 50 minutes (In the best case) when the phone is on airplane mode and I don't touch it at all.
When I actually use the phone it goes down to like 2-3 minutes to 1 percent of battery.
I don't have root at all but used my PC to gain access for Wakelock Detector and as you can see in the pic I got 30 minutes of malwarebytes (I have the premium version with real time protection)
But usually Whatsapp is the one on the top with the most time on CPU
I have a few screenshots of Wakelock Detector in CPU, Wakeup triggers, and kernel wakelock. And almost a screenshot from AccuBattery app. I hope I can get to the solution with your help
Also I heard about AKT that you can get 7-14 screen time hours with it. Can I use it on my device? (of course after I root it)
Thanks in advance

you should uninstall malwarebytes if you want battery drain to stop. malwarebytes is malware by itself
And then, you may want to tweak whatsapp, it consumes too much power

How can I tweak whatsapp?
Btw I noticed that when I close whatsapp my battery is pretty normal so I think whatsapp is the main cause. I got pretty good battery even when malwarebytes was on and whatsapp always seems to take most of the battery bt AccuBattery app.
So 50 minutes for 1% with apps running isn't bad... And I see you're connected to network with two bars on 4G is that LTE or HSPA variant like TMobile does? 2 bars is going to drain your battery because your modem is going to keep trying to get better signal.. none of your screen shots show you in airplane mode as well
I said that I tried to put the phone in airplane mode and even closed all no-system apps with greenify but even then the battery went down 1 percent every 50 minutes.
Btw can resetting the device can work?
If I will choose reset it I will unlock the bootloader and root the phone too
And I still don't know if I can use AKM on my phone with snapdragon 845 after & after the phone is rooted)

Of course no, if you'll continue to use watsapp.
How to tweak it must be described in general android discussions, I bet there's plenty of advices

Lol I accidentaly commented from another device so it's a different account. Anyway, do you think the problem appears because it's Whatsapp Plus (which has a kind of malware in it which stoles data, but still I decided to keep it because of the features) or it's like that in normal whatsapp too?
If I will root my phone I will be able to find an alternative for the Whatsapp Plus features while using the normal whatsapp from the playstore so just wanted to know if whatsapp has this wakelock problem globaly (Don't know if this is the place, tell me where I can open a thread on it if this isn't the place ?)
