hi guys
my battery started to drain really fast 3 days ago suddenly over night even in deep sleep and goes from 100% to 60% in 6 hours and it gets warm from bottom i flashed stock jb and kitkat but no luck still battery is draining very fast. i also took out the sim and sd card to see whether they are causing problems but battery drains the same i have also put it into aeroplane mode but no difference. so is it hardware problem or battery problem any ideas would be appreciated

I've seen this behavior before in other posts and experienced the same type of problem. SETUP:
+ HTC HD2 Tmoble Leo 6.1 original ROM.
+ PTEL carrier alternate carrier.
My Solution: Temporary solution was to configure APN differently than ROM default setting.
Permanent solution was upgrade to XDA H2O provided ROM with DIFFERENT RADIO.
Have gone from to 6.5 , 6.5.1, to WP7.8 since all without the internal components getting HOT (Big Battery Drain) like before.
Personally, i believe it's the BAL NWO (British Israelism) forcing Telecom operators to spy on the herd.
Maybe the battery is dieng ... Literally lol :thumbup::beer:

I had to warranty my phone due to a hard brick. My replacement phone had the same problems as yours. After a week of trying everything, I eventually brought the phone back and asked for another replacement. I've had the second replacement for months now with no issues. Turns out that the first replacement was defective.
well today i turned off my mobile completely but battery is still draining

Make sure GPS and Carrier ID is not causing drain, disable it helped me.
I too had alot of battery drain, and it seemed GPS was constantly trying to find my location.
This could be because of gov. spyware " carrier IQ , IQ agent, or just generally the LG seems to have problems getting good GPS signal. So, I disable "Carrier IQ".
Using the Free program " Manage Android AutoStart" -> Android System , and disable : After Startup, IQ Agent, Factory reset, and com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE
Bingo, no more Carrier IQ, or GPS seeking or Battery drain.
Hello friends, first thank you all for the wonderful community they built. Excuse me errors because the English language is not my native language.
Well now I tell them my mystery to solve ... because I have in my hands about 5 terminals LG G3 D851 tmobile and it all with the same problem: work well except that when the battery is approximately 20% or sometimes up to 30% the terminal after placing a call goes out or restarts. This also happens to me if I do something that requires a high consumption of battery such as making a video with active flash ... finally after reaching a battery level below 30% the phone restarts or shuts down when attempting .He tried very many calls batteries including new or original and all supposedly have obtained similar results. My question is if it will be a battery problem, the well terminal or some firmware. I tried taking android lollipop and marshmallow and does exactly the same so I think it is not a software problem. Another useful test I have done is test the battery terminals lg g3 but specifically the normal work d855 which inclines me to think it's a problem the phone .... but then there comes another concern me: perhaps will be many damaged terminals together? I say this because as I counted 5 D851 mobiles and all with the same problem. In short, they think about this?
Thank you so much everyone
Hey guys,
so i have noticed, that my battery life seems not to be the best one.. i wanted to know if maybe some of you experience the same drain or know how to improve the battery life. I'm on the latest LG Rom (TIM italia).
It is possible that your battery is worned out. I received a new G4 when it bootlooped, including a new battery, and the difference was visible from how long the first one lasted. The phone was 11 months old, so maybe that is your problem.

I have three different batterys, but each one has this bad battery life.. also got a new G4 because of bootloop
Install gsam it will break down usage chances are you have system/logs battery drain
Try charging your phone with an old 500ma charger couple of times, worked for me

Problem for me was Google services. Killed battery life. Factory reset fixed it.
common 818 problem, not fixed and probably never will be fixed as lg has abandoned this great device

this device is one of my few life purchases regrets, i paid too much and got too little, i'm using three batteries and still not enough to get through the day with two sim cards active and data on and listening to podcasts for about 3.5 hours a day.
for me, I'm never getting an LG device again.. too bad they are the last removable battery device manufacturer.
LG partner in the country i live in refused to change the phone and only replaced the motherboard when the freaking thing boot-looped on it's on.

Hello everyone. I have the LG G3 model D855 running Android 5.0. Recently I've noticed an issue with the phone's battery; it drains really fast. The phone was bought in August 2016 so it's pretty unusual for a technically new phone to have a bad battery. Anyway, I replaced it with a new one but the issue still existed with the addition of the battery charging really slowly. I figured the shop sent me a defective product so I told them to send me another one but it still had the same problem. I even ended up formatting my phone but the issue wasn't gone. Can anyone help me? What can I do to fix it? Any type of help would be appreciated.:crying:
hello there, been following this forum for ages, and a owner of a htc 10 for two weeks....
But I have a big problem....... the battery.....It really is abysmal......
I am currently on LeeDroid oreo, but have tried other roms, and come to the conclusion, the battery sucks!
I know there are kernal tweaks, but with this phone, i just like running the basic custom rom, no bells and whistles......
i am s-off and know how to downgrade/sort signal out/CID/ADB and everything, but I am reluctant to go too far back (Although I do like marshmallow)
I know on other phones, that going back to a previous firmware...sometimes improves the battery
but will it improve my battery????????
I went from Oreo to Nougat. Battery much improved. I was running pure stock rooted. No other mods on Nougat. Took a day to settle, but I could finally leave the house not worrying if I needed to carry a USB cable with me for a charge.

And overnight, do you notice any abnormal discharge? As much as 25/30%? or less?
I have this much of a discharge on nougat and on oreo... Did not noticed much of a difference on both FW tbh... As i bought this phone 2nd hand about a month ago, it was already on N and never tested it on MM to tell if there is any difference.
Our luck is the fast charge capability this phone has...

No, maybe like 2 - 3% at most overnight.

I would say so, yes I had problems. I bought this phone 2nd hand as well. A mint Red one. Pristine condition - at least in appearance. I also have/coming from a daily driver LG V20. Which also uses same 820 chipset. So I had some kind of expectation as to what battery life around. I was kind of shocked how bad the battery was on the 10. Phone was dropping like maybe 20% overnight. In the daytime on stock before I rooted I was getting maybe 1.5 - 2 SOT hours depending on use(i'm not a heavy gamer). I had never experienced such bad battery life before on an HTC phone. I unlocked it/rooted it and started playing with mods. The most success I had was with the Helix engine. I also had some Magisk modules installed to help deep sleep. Probably improved to getting 3 - 3.5 hours SOT. There is a thread dedicated to getting better battery life on Oreo in the guides section and I'd follow that thread and try various things. Also I had done the HTC calibration a few times, and the HTC battery test just to get a sense of the battery's health. In their test, I scored an 85, so I'd say the battery was OK. Not in the area of being a replacement.
But in the end, I was curious to go back to Nougat and then maybe on to Marshmallow to see how battery life would be. Simply going down to Nougat, I was satisfied. Not quite as good as my LG V20, but close enough. Don't feel the need to go down to marshmallow for it.
Maybe in the future I'll go back to Oreo on the 10, but for the most part, Nougat is fine.
From what I've read as well, HTC sort of 'unleashed' the power of the 820 chipset in Nougat, therefore when people went from Marshmallow to Nougat they reported worst battery life but improved performance especially in gaming.

Im aware on the unleashed power htc did on N, but it just don't justify the amount of energy drained. It does not make sense to remove social or other apps from background just because you need to retain battery. Still have a one M7 and the battery still is way better than this htc, with all the apps and settings i need on both, almost a clone of my m7. Im no gamer at all, and don't use whatsup, viber, FB, g+ etc.
You are saying that just by returning from Oero to Nougat, your htc 10 battery got less discharge, like it got fixed? without any mod's?
Thanks for your time to answer me!
Yeah, for me moving back to Nougat fixed my drain problems. Keep in mind, I didn't own the phone before Oreo, so I can't say what it was like pre oreo. But I finally felt comfortable with the performance/battery life I was getting on Nougat. I can't say this will work for you, but others have reported the same. Moving back to Nougat improved battery life.
Before you do it, I'd advise to rule out a hardware problem though to save the aggrivation of downgrading. Do the HTC battery test. If you fall below 70% in the test after an hour, I'd say it might be more hardware related than software.

Good morning.
Wile i was chating with you (yesterday), finally used the htc battery test and to my surprise it went from 99% to 88% in that hour test (99 because it was off and spent that ~1% booting). So, hopefully, will experience the same as the most of you who made the downgrade.
Perhaps its some part on the process of downgrading that fixes something, maybe the format of the [persist] partition one have to wipe to recover access to the baseband (thus the imei) repairs something, a kind of file system error that makes the android system use a lot of power(?).
As i told before, if do mobile repair and to this day, after several hundred of phone fix (hard and software, various brands as lg, samsung, htc,, iDeveices and china phones, never seen this type of problem unless it was hardware problems like pmic (power management IC) due to use of bad chargers / bad cables, water damage, drop damage, etc. Got this 10 and as soon i got here (xda) immediately noticed the amount of people that had the very same problem. And we are (here on xda) just a few to the many thousands of 10 owners around the globe that don't use xda or any other forums to talk about this problem.
Going to do this downgrade today. Im eager to see the result and use my 10 finally (another agnostic hope :angel!!
Thanks!
