Hyperion battery under-performing?

Got the Hyperion last week from Amazon and overall I was impressed with its initial performance. It was a huge boost from the oem battery as I didn't have to recharge my phone at all during the day.
My only concern is that I've noticed I haven't been seeing similar numbers as others have mentioned with their Hyperion. I mean, I'm not getting 24+ hrs of use with 8 hrs of on screen time. I'll take a photo next time when its at its lowest charge but I am averaging about 5-6 hrs of on screen time, and thats with basic use, surfing the web, texting, couple phone calls, no games or movies, wifi/gps/sync on, and 30% brightness, non rooted as well.
Does anyone else feel their Hyperion isn't performing as others have claimed?

24+ hours with 8+ hours screen is is down right impossible. The reason people get extended batteries is because they want more than the stocks screen time for 4-5 hours without worrying about their phone dying.

Not really... With the correct kernel and ROM I can push that if not surpass it. Paranoid 2.51 leankernel 1.6 been home all day from the storm... That's 3 hours 12 mins screen on time @ 67% juice left.

For me, not so much. Today for an example, I got a little over 12 hrs until I hit the 5% mark with almost 6 hours of screen on time. Home all day too with wifi on and screen brightness at 30%.
One thing I did notice though is that the "sdcard" used 1 hr and 17 mins of the battery. I've never even seen the sdcard on the activity list before, this is the 2nd time I've seen it since installing the Hyperion battery. Hmm what could it be?

I almost made it.. I'm running Aokp build 4. Not sure what the kernel is.
Plus the batteries have to go through a charging period... I noticed the first day it lasted a long time almost 2 days. (1day22hrs)I forget what the screen on time.

No, it is very possible, as I get that all the time on my hyperion.

Have you looked at any wakelocks your getting with better battery stats? That is pretty bad for the 4200 batt. Did you do the charging cycles that were detailed in the user manual?

Hey I was just passing by and reading threads, although I don't have this battery, a very possible reason that your battery life might not be as good is that you're still on stock. Notice everyone else who posted is on a custom rom + kernel. The GS3 stock roms are nice but come very bloated with apps. I read somewhere that on stock when you start up your phone, by default it starts a very impressively high number of processes ~50ish. I could be wrong on that but yeah a bloated stock rom MIGHT be the problem. Just my thought.

No I have not tried that app yet.
And yes I did follow the initial charging instructions as well.
It has to be something with the phone because even with the stock battery I had terrible performance, it'd last me only 3 hrs of on screen time where I've heard most users receive around 5.
He is my cpu time, it seems normal since the phone is spent most of its time in deep sleep.

Good at first/No so good after a couple months?
I havce the Hyperion, and have experienced close to 48 hours of life, albeit with very little use. With moderate use, I've experienced 30 hours. My screen time never surpasses 3 hours per day.
A few weeks ago I installed the Serenity 1.1 ROM. I have not been able to get more than 15 hours with that ROM.
This morning, I put in my stock battery, and it has been in for 9 hours so far, and is currently at 83%. I did a reboot about 4 hours ago, so don't have accurate screen-on stats. But I'm never at 83% this time of day with the Hyperion.
ANyone else experience good, then later, poor performance from this battery?

In the beginning I head awesome battery power. Now the battery is horrible I only get 2 hours screen time at 65 percent. Any ideas? Also undervolted and running 1.8mhz but battery still runs hot.

Screen on time

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the OnePlus 3 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Sounds great so far, knowing that the battery normally becomes better after 2-3 days of charging I hope that we will reach even better SOTs

I hpe for at least 4-5 sot with wifi and normal usage and 3.5 hrs for mobile data.

SOT really depends on usage, and whilst I was one like many here that is obsessed with SOT, I've started to just use phones without really worrying about it. Plus Dash charge is a great addition (aside from having to carry the charger with you).

Used a few apps, specially Snapchat and Whatsapp. Got a screen on time of 3.5 hrs on 4G. Decent yeah. OPO had a tad bit better.

What's the stand by?

I bought it on the launch day and conducted the test the next day after a full cycle. At precisely 5 pm I unplugged the device, at 100%, Connected to wifi with brightness at 25%, with auto brightness off. The phone was at 3% the next day at 4 pm. I got about 5 hours and 15 minutes of screen on time, moderately heavy usage, the phone only lost 6% overnight. Made 15 minutes worth of phone calls, light gaming, lots of browsing and video watching. And some apps with location as well. My previous phone was a oneplus one and for my usage, it seems to be giving me better battery life.

I'm soo ****ing tempted to send my nexus 5x back and get the op3. 400 bucks is a steal with those specs. Also your SOT looks good. Are you using a dark theme and a dark wallpaper or not? From what I've read it comes prerooted?

Nope. Actually refrained from using the dark theme to see how well the battery does. And my wallpaper is the default never settle wallpaper. And no, it doesn't come pre-rooted.

Thanks for the info. Rooting that thing shouldn't be too hard anyway. Wonder how much battery you can sqeeze out with a dark theme / wallpaper? Haven't used an oled screen in years, though. Even more tempted now.

Time on: 7h 2m 41s
Computer power use: 534 mAh
I'll PM the Droplr link for the battery stats and SoT screens
I've using the following:
Dark Mode active throughout
Night Mode active throughout [ I REALLY REALLY LOVED IT, so I keep it on all the time.]
Apps used - Gmail, Excel, Word, Dropbox, Apple Music, Pocketcasts, Fenix, Messenger and Whatsapp.
Data usage is split over LTE and WiFi.
Battery was at 5% as I post this
If there is any other stat you'd like to see let me know

I'm getting exactly 5 hrs of sit for the last 2 charge cycles. Completely on wifi. No sim cards for now and moderate usage with low to no gaming.

how is your battery holding off?

Hi, i have been noticing that my battery its just getting me through the day with 4hs SOT in 14 or 15 hs of use. I have tried many roms and kernels and there is no difference. My phone its not too old (1 year and a half) so i wanted to ask you how was your battery doing. And if mines dying. (Sorry for poor english)

lineage os 15.1
I get from 4.5-6h of SOT depends on how heavy or how many pics I abuse the phone
stock pie, I barely get 2.5h of SOT and if I go heavy use on it, I barely crack 2h

18 months is more than average use, and that usage is normal, and mine is exactly like yours by the way, and the device is of same age too LoL. I am gonna keep using it like this and when SoT drops below 3 hour mark might consider replacing the battery. You can already consider changing the battery anyway.
PS: Tip, stop using those stupid Adaptive ****s Pie brought, both the battery and brightness thingy, those do nothing except drain more.

What about like stock pie with a custom kernel?

Stock Pie here, latest security, just rooted with TWRP.
Get about 2.5 with mixed media and gaming and little gaming I can get about 3.5 hours SOT. Just got the phone about two weeks ago, coming from a 6P. Accubattery shows 71 battery health.
It's not too bad but not that great either. Personally it gets me through work and back home and it charges very fast using the 6P charger even when gaming.
I wish the battery was better, other than that I LOVE my Pixel XL!

Stock Pie, not touched, not modified, not rooted. Perfectly happy with battery life so far, up to 8 h. SOT, up to 1 day of moderate usage.

8h SOT seems pretty crazy for a 2 year old device but I can see it. Mine usually gets upwards of 5-6 depending on what games I'm playing on it etc. Mind you I'm rooted with a custom kernel installed. Either way I am still very much impressed with the Pixels battery life.

Sorry to say, but are you sure you didn't charge your phone to 90 percent and unplug it a few times? That doesn't reset SOT.
Hard to believe that my phone is still bate minimun, stock Pie and can barely squeeze 3.5 hours SOT out of it at 72 percent battery health.
There are legit nothing keeping my phone awake either. I use gsam and BetterBatteryStats.
There is no way you're getting 8 hours SOT on a two year old devices, when even the Note 9 isn't getting anywhere near that.

As I have mentioned before, the one in my hands is brand new, born from Pie. So I am holding barely 2 months old device, far away from two years and it easily last from morning till next morning. 8 hours of SOT is possible depending on usage, double checked. Even GSM arena test says it's holding 11 hours of video playback. Moderate usage, dark themes in every possible app, some YouTube, Facebook, Google Play Music, browsing, on WiFi almost 24 /7, up to 30 min calling per day. But no gaming at all.
My first screen shot may be a bit confusing one as I unplugged my device from charger while taking it and posting. 5 h SOT, half juice left, but it will go a bit faster now, never exceed 8 hours here. If you are using if for processor intensive task I agree 4-5 hours will be most what you'll get.

Stats at this moment.

How do you guys get such crazy battery life?! I'm lucky to scrape in an hour of screen on time! And that's just using it to look at Facebook and Snapchat here and there.

AccuBattery Pro stats

Custom pie rom here. I usually average about 5 hrs sot. Sometimes if im just texting and light browsing I'll get to 3 hrs at 50% but no matter what else i do it magically ends at about 5 hrs even when Im on track for 6. Now if I start using snapchat, youtube, camera the battery drops like a rock and I'll show only 3.5 maybe 4 hours. this is with LTE, not much wifi, but that doesnt seem to alter the outcome much one way or another.
Oh and share, Im getting 1 less with pie compared to oreo. Someone in another thread tried to tell me it was just me and my phone but looks like thread everywhere show pie is a battery bogger.

What's a good app to measure battery health

hi I'm actually xda passive user from 2011, since then I always using sony devices (xperia arc, xperia SP, xperia Z2 xperia XA2 Ultra, XZ Premium) but this is my first time to have an account and be active user. My pixel XL using custom pie rom (liquid remix) and kingkernel by KingBri, Blu_Schedutil gov can least up to 4.5-5hours SOT in 30% LTE and 70% wifi moderate use (WA,IG,Youtube,Chrome) but it can drop to 3-4hours SoT when I'm gaming PUBGM for total 1hour. I think thats good remind I bought second hand Pixel XL in Indonesia just about less than 2 weeks ago. sorry no screenshot because I forgot to capture it when still in liwuid remix and now I'm in BootLeggerROM 3.5 Pie and wanna test the differences. Thank you :good::good:

Battery life

Hello
I just received my s20 plus for a week now and the battery life just like my old s7 edge after 4 years .. 3.5 to 4.5 SOT .
Is this normal ?

Same here mate, but this might improve with software updates.... At least I hope so

I hope.. i am afraid that the device has high power consumption design that with time should only get worse.

Give it 4 days to settle down. But yes it does drain faster than s10+. I knew that before pre-ordering but I thought Samsung would have figured something out...
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app

Guys this is completely normal for the phone to drain this fast, the phone is learning all your usage patterns in order to adjust the battery, use this time to go over the settings and tweak it to your liking. Also in the s10+ forum there is a battery optimisation post, go over there and apply it to your phone. Also maybe you are using the ultra high definition and 120hz, maybe start with that to tweak it.
Another thing is if you just restore the phone from a backup, this can bring corrupted settings that might be the culprits do factory reset and install all from zero without a backup.

''maybe you are using the ultra high definition and 120hz, maybe start with that to tweak it.''
thats physically IMPOSSIBLE now

I assume that you are using the exynos versions?

I had 7 1/2 sot yesterday SD 120hz

Second day, 120Hz is lovely but damn, I'm at home connected to my WiFi and it's draining like crazy, I'm worried how is it gonna look when I go outdoors to the college and will be using LTE. I'm on Exynos

I'm getting 2 hours of SOT through my day (7 am to 10 pm)

It's been a week that I've been using the Exynos version @ 120Hz RR. Battery life is way worse than S10+ on similar settings, tweaks and usage pattern.

I have charged my phone for the 2nd time and i get +- 5 hours of sot. I use everything on the phone, 120hz etc. The battery is still in the learning pattern phase...getting same battery life as I got on my S10+. I get roughly 24 hours with one charge and 6 hours is included when I sleep...The battery will get better. With my S10+ I got 24-36 hours of battery time with +- 3-5 hours sot...depending on usage...So if I can get the same or a bit better I would be very happy

I'm reading pretty bad about the Exynos Ultra as well in different but reliable sources. It's a pain to have a primary driver that dies mid-day on medium usage, that era of "unacceptable batterylife" on a flagship is believed to be over years back. I remember me behaving in an uncivilized? manner with the ones who tried to defend Exynos S9+ in every online forum when the culprit was the SoC itself to start with..

no wonder they didnt want to enable 120hz at 2K res - it would kill the battery in 1h probably

7.5hrs screen on time? How? First person I've heard that high.

I have the S20+ with the snapdragon processor. I think the battery life is very good, way better than my P4XL. I have 4 hours sot right now and have 60% left. I'm using 120 hz refresh rate. I believe it has gotten better over time, either from "settling" or updates, or maybe my imagination, haven't actually checked but some nights I go to bed after a day of light use and I'm shocked at the battery left. I unplug at 6am and at 10pm I've seen 80% battery left. That's minimal use like I said, not a typical day.

I think the battery life is quite alright, on par with my second phone (OnePlus 7 pro)
Exynos/12gb ram/120hz: stranded on 12%, so it would be around 7.5hours of SOT in full day.
Note: got the phone 3 days ago, it's still settling.View attachment 4977585
Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk

I have the snapdragon version and the battery on this thing is a BEAST!
Going on 34 hours off the charger and 7 hours of sot. I have done nothing to conserve battery. Loads of apps/accounts syncing. I am super impressed. Way better then my s10+ was.

120hz on, about mid-brightness, I'm lasting all day use with my personal usage habits. Battery life is as good if not a bit better than on my Note 10+. Snapdragon here on T-Mobile. Mostly WiFi. But it's only been about a week of use.
Can't complain at all.
ETA: Also BT always on using with my Frontier watch and Galaxy Buds on occasion.
