Hay I just left my phone on over night to see what uses the most battery with me doing anything.
The screen used 30% of the battery, what is odd is that everything in the settings is off or set to the lowest it can be set to.
Can you guys help me with how to save more battery from the screen, this is silly that its using so much when it's not doing anything.
What can you think of to help?

Are you unrooted? Do you have a custom ROM? Have you tried taking battery in and out? Or even when these things happened when I was not rooted I found turning airplane mode on and off to work or rebooting the phone as it might of just been a rogue app not allowing the phone to sleep.

hi ,
i would say it is a app,behaving badly ,( badly coded, battery drain? ) that's draining your battery like that ..?
i would suggest try "currentWidget " to check you battery drain ( just remeber to enable the log file, in settings !
my drain, if i leave it overnight,
say about, 9/10 hours, is about 3%/ 4% for this period ( 1mA /3mA a hour )
also try "SystemPanel " to monitor you applications over period of time .
i had same problems as you,
say 15/20% battery drain ,from time to time ,but everytime managed,to id the culprit , with above apps ..!!!
you can find both applications in the market ?
you also don't need, any root for these apps above .
good luck
I'm using LEEDROID v5 I think which shouldn't make a big difference.
Thanks in will download the app and see what they say

Now using cord Droid this is much better on the battery.

regarding the OP, with a lot of the newer kernels the power monitoring stuff is snafu, confirmed by Mad-murdoch on cm, thus the reports of what's using the power are useless, although the overall usage is correct.
Anyone having call drop problems or one way call (usually i can hear but the other side can't)?
Also standby mode is great but using it causes huge Battery drain...
Anyone with the above said problems or with any solutions?
No call dropping, but did have battery drain. Switched from Chrome to Chrome Beta and things seem better.
report all issues to the feedback app in the beta
Yes,metoo on the battery drain ussie. No issues during calls though.
So far I haven't noticed any drain, in fact, sleep is better than ever for me.
The thing that I have noticed is that battery percentage goes downhill like crazy during games and when using Camera.
Much more than it used to on MM.

I have the same impression
I faced/ still facing battery drain issues during sleep in all the betas with the stock kernel. Custom kernal (EX) provided more feedback in this regard ... waiting for a custom kernel to be available for Nougat OOS.
ThanX Guys...Maybe the call problem might be my networks...but I use 2 SIMs from different network...both have the same problem...will try flashing nougat again
Had problem with draining battery, wiped data system cache dalvik and flashed cb8 again and it works just fine now.
No issues here battery life is better to MM
I recently purchased a P2. Every thing's good. Battery life is also better than most of the phones. But, one thing that I noticed is that Cpu usage is high in idle state too. I did a factory reset. But, the problem persists. I usually get around 8hrs SOT. I think that's lower than most P2's.
Is there a way to solve this? My bootloader is not yet unlocked. Have to wait 12 more days.
Thanks.
Wait 12 more days, unlock the bootloader and flash the DrainFix.zip that can be found in Lineage and RR threads.

Are you still on Marshmallow ? There was a bug that caused the cpu to stay at 1689mhz on some phones .
And Drainfix wont make any difference . It changes the governor from performance to interactive , but your already on the interactive governor .

I am now on nougat. But same problem. Already performed factory reset a couple of times. Cpu doesn't stay on 1689mhz. Now it fluctuates. But, still heavy usage from CPU.
Battery drains by 7-8% overnight.
I already installed Nougat, but the phone is sleeping as dead. Charged it to 95% last night, put it on airplain mode and today in the morning after 9h to battery is still 95%.
The android battery stats show that CPU is awake all time, but BetterBatteryStats shows that everything is fine.

Mine is dropping in Flight mode too . Its probably the system tuning itself up while its idle , it should settle down in a few days
I have the same problem
Have you found any solution? I purchased it on 21 April 2017 and currently running it on Naugat.

Here is how it was for me.
I took phone out of the box with MM preinstalled and right after i turned up the screen and connected to my wifi network it asked me to update OS to Nougat 7.0 so i did. The bug that caused CPU stays at 1.69Ghz occures for 100% on Nougat, and you say on MM too ?
Anyways, for me, hard reset solved the problem, at least this one.
But battery drain still takes place. In normal mode 3-4%, in ultra power saving - 5-6% over night (5-7h). This is pretty a lot i would say.
ps: Phone goes into deep sleep mode according to BetterBatStats.
On p2 i get average SOT of around 13hrs

I had same problem under stock Nougat before i installed the magisk and the crossbreeder mod. Now I have 0-2% battery drain at night.

What are those mods ? Are they xposed modules ? What do they do ?

Thanks ill try it once im rooter in 9 days.
So far im very dissapointed with my bateery life. I get 8.5h over 3 days use. It's not really a good result as for such a battery and screen technology.
I counted exactly - 23% of battery went for standby. It's a lot, isnt it ?
Any ideas if its Nougat fault, or bad piece of phone ?
I think u need to drain your battery completely till the phone shuts down then recharge completely while the phone is off then power on and try

How did you install magisk? Did you root using magisk or using phh superuser? Right now I am rooted with phh.. I would like to change to magisk. Please guide or send link to a guide..
Thanks

Systemless root under Nougat with magisk:
1. Format data partition to ext4.
2. Type in the recovery terminal :
echo "SYSTEMLESS=true" >> /data/.supersu
3. Flash the magisk12.zip
4. Reboot
5. Install Magisk manager
If you have another su like phh, will not work, you need reinstall the original boot image.
Should be around 0.2%/hr...

The only way to know the standby drain is normal or not, try install GSam Battery Monitor app...
As shown above, native stock ROM S233 should drain around 0.2% per hour, which in turn to be 0.2% x 8 hours sleep = 1.6% or 1.6% of 5,100mAh is 81.6mAh energy consumption...
Conclusion:
P2a42 can survive in airplane mode for 20 days on a single charge.

So, i just checked my Gsam, and here is what is says:
0.7%/h drain in standby which is more or less what im losing of battery juice over night. It's stick Nougat form OTA update.
Right now im at 44% and i switched into ultra power saving mode. It says that i have left around 51h. I dont think this is normal. Isnt it really very little time ?
It's just a little over 2 full days @ 44%
Damn...
Should i return this piece to store with complain i got faulty one ?
Can you please switch to ultra power saving mode just for a second and tell me what did it calculate aproximately as time left on battery ?
Deliting battery app data allow YT and other app to work on 120hz but everyday I need to do it again because YT go back to 60hz.
Any workaround?
Thanks

Reboot
Yea, I did that but except that.Did someone find permanent solution!?
Tried this and I think browsing in brave became for fluid. Dont know how long will it last. Scared at first when I delete the data in battery and performance because reboot takes longer than usual. And it reboot in miui logo two times.
I have serious problem about my device. I realized when i'm using my phone but suddenly i felt my battery draining so fast and the heat comes up like i'm playing light game or updating apps. That time i notice a small red light from the infrared, i checked with camera and it's flashing. It also turned on when i'm charging in shutdown mode. But it flash so bright when on lockscreen idle and when i input somethings like press volume button, tap fingerprint or anything else it become almost unseen

Xiaomi tells you to buy another phone
in english they released sh*ty updates that nerf the cam quality and mess with the launcher/recent/background apps/ram managment/kernel ... and now the IR
solution : unlock and use a custom rom
Yeah, custom Rom could be your best bet...
