battery drain after s244 update - Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers

i did factory reset too. but still the battery is draining quiet a lot
about 10-15 % overnight
this was not the issue in s233
any solution????
P.S - the phone feels much smoother after the update but at the cost of battery
after installing battery stats app, it shows that wifi is draining my battery but my wifi is not on, i don't know why it is still draining my battery
any ideas???

I am not facing this issue at all. No battery drain on sleep. Flashed the zip fresh after wiping all previous data, system casch.

I am also not facing any issues after s244 (not rooted , bootloader not unlocked), smoother as before

What happen if we put it in airplane mode and leave it overnight, say, 8 hours stand-by...?

This clearly demonstrates that the cellular signal strength is very weak in your location. Get in touch with your telco to report weak signal strength of the cell tower in your area.
Otherwise, put in airplane mode to see any difference in overnight stand-by drain... My unit is at 0.1%/hour discharge rate which translate to 0.1 x 8 hours = 0.8% battery drain overnight in airplane mode.

thanks it will provide for a reference to compare with my readings

I noticed after the s244 update applied that my wifi settings had changed.
Go to wifi settings and turn wifi off and there will be a message about wifi scanning. If you click that you can disable wifi and bluetooth scanning for location services.

You were right after putting in airplane mode the drain was only 1% overnight
What solution do you suggest now????

There is a universal deep sleep patch available in XDA. Try that.

Just get in touch with your telco... Report to them the cell tower in your vacinity is giving bad reception strength to your devices... If they refuse to rectify, port out to other telco (if this is the merely choice in hand...)

I suggest you to try and wait for at least 3-4 complete charge cycles. It will definitely fix the issue and revert the battery cycle as similar to S233

Cell Standby 66% battery usage

My battery died in a few hrs today and the culprit seems to be 66% cell standby. I've never experienced this kind of drain before. I'm running the latest Franco Kernel and I'm wondering if anyone else is seeing this?
I just posted something exactly like this earlier in the day. Do you have google chrome and recently updated? I think when I just uninstalled it, it fixed my problem...
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda premium
would be amazing if you actually posted a screenshot of your usage, with awake time, screen on time, and network state....
Leave your screen on all of the time. It will make the cell standby percentage go down .
On a serious note. what's the time without signal? Just press on cell standby and it will tell you the percentage I think. It sounds like you didn't have coverage and your phone was constantly trying to find it...which would kill your battery fairly fast and probably make your phone warm in my experience.

I've noticed that juice defender ultimate hasn't been running so maybe this has been a problem I didn't notice, I turned it off because I hate how long it takes to bring 4G back up...
phone has of course been on the charger since I was less than 10% but:

What did your network level look like over that drain? It looks like you have bad signal, but it shouldn't effect it that much if you're on WiFi the whole time... as noted before, a radio constantly hunting for better 3G/4G signal can really drain the battery.
How much screen on time was that? Probably pretty low?
56% of the time you were without a signal? Where do you live? Alaska? On a serious note though...I'd recommend switching to 2g/3g or wifi when you're having trouble finding a signal.

WOW yeah didn't even see that. There's the drain right there. Your phone is boosting power to the radio to try and get a signal and just obliterating the battery.

At home, my signal is generally 2-3 bars 4G, maybe we're having tower issues in my area. This battery consumption is definitely not the norm for me. Kind of took me by surprise which is why I posted...

So it is true that when your phone did not have network connection, it will constantly find coverage and thus account for the awake time in the battery state? Therefore eating up the battery life, even though the screen is off?

Yes. This is true. The phone pushes more power to the radio also, which drains the battery.

[Q] Another battery problem

Hello everyone, I have bought htc one x not so long ago and noticed a problem (or maybe it is normal?) that battery drops like crazy when in use. Phone is on stock sense 5 rom (android 4.2.2) and not rooted. The problem is that it dishcharges in crazelly fast, sometimes not one by one % but like 3-4 % instantly down, when using. And there is not much difference between playing or surfing (with wi-fi or just on mobile network). Another thing that i've noticed, that it does not charge fully, battery calibration app on 100% shows 4183mV most, as I know there should be 4200mV. When phone is on sleep, battery holds perfectly, only 2-4% down after night. Just writting this battery went down from 35% to 22%
Thanks for replies.

I use normal home screen. And wakelocks aren't a problem, as I said, phone holds perfectly when in sleep. The problem is when it's under load, even not too big, battery just drops by few % instantly (as you can see from using stats, it drops like a brik).

did you have 3g connection always on?
because it drain lot of battery.
during stanby time the battery go down butthe % is not updated and when you use it, the battery drop on the right value
try using juice defender and set the automatic on/off for 3g each 10/15 min...instead af always on

So the problem is, that after the sleep battery's percentage is refreshed only after some use? Well, that's quite logical. But still, I was left very unsatisfied by the performance of battery And as I know, juice defender just turns data connection off, it doesn't change network connection from 3g to 2g and vice versa.

right but better than nothing use wifi when you can, the difference of power consumptin with respect 3g is huge
I leave data on the whole day and i barely drop till 80% with a standby of 16hrs

Try seeing whether wakelock is an issue or not. I've encountered drastic wakelocks that eats up my battery within 10hrs of standby time even on sense rom so I really hope that you''ll take a look

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 Samsung Galaxy S7'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!
hi there. got my s7 few days ago and it sleeps like a baby hehe 1% lost in 6 hrs
Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
I lost 10% of battery the past two nights. I have the always on feature turned on tho.
The mine 0,5% a hour
Inviato dal mio SM-G930F utilizzando Tapatalk
I typically lose about 4-5% overnight. Not bad, but not as good as a Nexus
I have a massive batterydrain in standby when I am connected to WiFi. When I'm on mobile data I have no batterydrain at all in standby
I don't have a clue why it is like this
I lose 18% over 8 hours. Maybe I'll try turning wifi off tonight. That said, battery life overall seems really good. No problems whatsoever getting through a full day on one charge.

Go to WiFi > more > keep WiFi on during sleep > off
More than likely your WiFi is causing the drain by the always scanning feature turned on

Have that setting now but should not have to. On my S6 I have it allways on and there is no batterydrain problem.
with heavy use, 2 days battery life without charging. and also its charging is pretty fast too
I loose 1% over a 7h night on plane mode.

Hey man,
I have the exynos version. Still on stock, i just used "package disabler pro" - as you do - to get rid of all the bloatwares and apps i don't use.
Oh, and i don't know if that's relevant, but i disabled the fast charge, in order not to preserve the - non switchable - battery, it still charges quite fast.
I've checked three times now, i was never below 99% when i woke up.
Hope it helps.

Yet this is. I just turn the phone back (with the screen hidden) so that the "always on" doesn't turn on.
I am having massive battery drain
My phone drops 20% in 2 hours on standby and I'm at my wits end trying to figure out why android os is taking 500mb of data a day
20% Over night absolutely not normal!
Have to recharge phone twice a day.
I am on stock and cannot apply root (this is company phone).
When I had Nexus 5, battery drain was not so horrible.
Here is a picture of my battery drain
From start I have WiFi on and then I turn WiFi off and the battery drain stops
Can't understand why WiFi is draining my battery like this ?

Damaged battery?

Hi guys, I'm a happy Nexus 5X owner, except for one thing: battery autonomy.
I had a true hope that Nougat would change my perception, but I got no improvement at all. After that I tried ElementalX kernel running every profile, including the newest GlassFish 1.2 and HawkTail 1.2. I also use Greenify and don't have facebook app installed.
I unplug my phone everyday at 7:30 AM and it can't get past 2:00 PM. My use is *only* web browsing (chrome) and whatsapp. Nothing like youtube, netflix, gaming or listening to music. I get only 2h30 SOT.
I've been using this charger for about 4 months: http://www.gearbest.com/chargers-cables/pp_350509.html
My question is: could my battery have been damaged?
Thanks!
Probably just the usual combination of Usage, Settings and Signal. We could only guess without some screenshots though, there's a battery life thread in General where you can post them and get advice.
The one thing I can suggest to evryeveryoneone is to use Developer Options > Running services and see which of your 3rd party apps are running 24/7 in the background. These are using your phones resources even if you never launch the app.
Nothing special is needed to get good battery life on this device, I typically see 5-6 hours SoT over 24-48 hours with stock 7.0. No root or loss of features.

How likely is this battery LG Original? http://www.ebay.com/itm/ORIGINAL-LG...963915?hash=item2ef4e2404b:g:nbQAAOSwLnBX6QsX
I'm afraid of overheating because I sleep with the phone charging beside my bed.
Honestly, whats your brightness? Do you use bluetooth? Is NFC turned on? Location? Are you running 2G/3G or LTE? WIFI? Do you have wakelocks? I can make my nexus have 3 hours SoT ober a day also. But I can also make it have 5. Its all usage dude, unless you see a lot of heat, or drops of 5% over 5 mins, id say you battery is fine. Maybe its just the charger that doesnt fill it right? Why do you use that charger?

I use auto-brightness (usually 50%). No bluetooth, no NFC, location battery-saving. I run half time 3G, half time WiFi. I use this cheap charger at work. The original I use at home. My wakelocks from yesterday are the following:

Thats actually normal considering you have auto brightness and half the time on 3g. However, your whatsapp usage is huge. Try running withouth it for a day. And do you really need location? How is your signal strength?

Auto brightness consumes that much power? What's your recommendation?
Signal strength is always strong. I'm turning off location from now on.

Hell yea. If you have it on 50% and use your phone anywhere outside or somwhere where the phone determines that you cant see it clearly, it will crank up the brightness, and that consumes a lot of battery. Try running it on 10-15% manual mode inside, and 20-25% outside or more if you really cant see, but keep the brightness mostly to 25%. The screen consumes a lot and plus 3g, no wonder you have such bad battery life :/ On 10% brightness, you can pull off 4 hours for sure. At least I can

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 3T'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!
I think MM is good in general, but so far so good. I only lose 1 to 3% overnight.
I have plenty of battery drain overnight, mostly the Android system, Android OS and Google services.
I've had the phone for 2 days now and overnight battery drain is around 5%, but the real problem is that Android System takes up around 30% of my battery.
in 8h night (standby) i get 1-2% drain.
wifi, sync enabled.
if you get major drain, then its something on your setup causing it.
its always like that. (except something is broken on hardware side)
OxygenOS 3.5.1. - 1-2% battery drain;
OxygenOS 3.5.3. - 0% battery drain (in one scenario phone was left to [email protected]% (took off the charger and it drained 0% in 4 hour sleep period and in the other scenario the phone was left @53% to sleep and it drained 0% in 8 hour sleep period)

My experience is that the phone is better than average for sleep drain, just ~1-2 % with stock kernel. With Tyranus kernel v12 by @mdalexca, I'm not seeing any drain overnight at all. Battery life on medium usage looks to be a few days at least. (Yeah, I'm a light user aside from my first week with a new phone where I nearly wear it out ;)
Using Nova Launcher ...experiencing battery drain 3~4% overnight (5-7 hours) with WiFi off. But during the day, WiFi on, not even touching phone and it goes down 10% in an hour and a half. Battery reports Android System as the culprit. Any suggestions guys?

Turn off Android System.
Sorry, couldn't resist.
I got pretty good standby last night. Some nights don't give me near as good standby, so it's quite inconsistent.

Hows your deep sleep, working ok? Even if it shows Android system, it could be some app which isnt working correctly.
I got someone here with one plus 3 non t version (I got t, same problem like you) and is just flashed Chinese version of one plus 3 on his phone and zero drain but bare in mind the Chinese version doesn't got Google services at all , no play store and stuff , is saying is got more juice now , but I am just thinking you will need to install Google services for YouTube and stuff . Hmmm just saying Google battery hog .
For now I am waiting for developers to receive their phone . I just can't wait for many custom ROMs
using stock Oxygen with BT/Wifi on, 2 push accounts with 4-5% drain overnight

How do I check the deep sleep? I just went back to the shop and idk what they did but they said they ran a software check(?) And asked me to try the phone again for a day. Surprisingly overnight with wifi off only went down 1℅ (but this was on oneplus launcher) but then during the day it drained as fast as previous. But now the batt reports show first Android OS, Cell standby and then Android system....

I'm not sure is it possible to check it without the root, but if you are rooted, then BetterBatteryStats is quite handy: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.asksven.betterbatterystats&hl=en

Yeah that apps requires root...thanks anyway
I have the MBA bug. I see a lot of people avoid it by staying on WiFi but I can't. Result is rapid battery drain.
I'm still getting reasonable battery though if I remember to toggle airplane mode. Device sleeps well enough. Almost perfect awake to screen on ratio.

Looks like OnePlus isn't bothered to fix this bug.

why don't you disable wifi/bt scanning and disable facebook/messenger notificationn?
oneplus is actually well optimized and drain is about 4% overnight

Wifi scanning and bluetooth is already disabled, and facebook isn't installed. This same issue exists in Oneplus 3 and Oneplus is not bothered to fix it.
