[FIXED] Battery drains strangely faster after several official updates - Realme X2 Questions & Answers

Despite having very basic using with phone (web browsing, texting, whatsapp, telegram) and no gaming, still battery drains faster than the first day when I bought the phone (about 6 months ago) the phone had Color OS 6 and things were acceptable even in gaming, but now after every push updates for Realme UI, battery drains even faster than the first release.
in DeepSleep I had a drain of 1% overnight but now it's about every 3~4 hours of DeepSleep = 1% so if I leave the phone for 6~8 hours it drains 2% and after using the phone for 4 to 5 minutes it drops another 1%
This is obviously not tolerable although we have a super fast charge of 30min 67% but there is some sort of problem in software side.
*UPDATE: Issue mostly fixed with a clean & fresh reflash of latest Realme UI ozip file through twrp recovery, been using the phone for 4 days and no issues so far.

[Q] Is this normal?

Hello everyone
I got my DHD last week on tuesday, very happy with it so far!
So I was playing Slice It for about an hour and a half, and my battery went from 100% to 56%.
Battery Use shows this:
1h 36m since unplugged
Display 58%
Slice It 29%
akmd 5%
Android System 4%
Cell Standby 2%
Mediaserver 2%
Wi-Fi was off the whole time, brightness was at about 15-20%, and the volume at about 35%...
Is this normal for the battery to run out so quickly?
P.S. I did charge the battery for 8 hours before any use like the manual said.
Cheers
Yeah its normal for a less than 2 week old battery. My battery got progressively better every week up until week 5 or so.
Your battery will get better. Plus you were using your phone quite heavily so everything sounds about normal.
The battery doesn't last too long on the DHD. I've noted marked improvements by using a combination of JuiceDefender and AdvancedTaskKiller minimising bg apps.

[Q] Battery life has suddenly shortened

Hi I have: HTC Wildfire with CyanogenMod 7.2.0-RC1
In about the past 2 days my battery life has dropped considerably with the phone not lasting more then 12 hours, as opposed to the previous life of 2-3 days.
I charged it too 100% last night and this morning when I checked it it was at 20%
I have not installed any new apps, my screen usually runs on low brightness and the data connection only running on 2g/Edge and I have changed no settings lately.
I tried a battery stats wipe, no change.
I remember having that problem just after I flashed a new recovery.
It was about 80% before I sleep And when I wake up I find it 55%
I installed Sympfinity kernel and it really improved battery life.
now only 10% (sometimes less) are lost through the night.
Try Sympfinity kernel.

I Flashed CM7.2 RC2 it seems to have fixed the problem.

I advise you to install battery calibration from play store, sometimes after flashing a new rom, battery may be miss-read
tip
the battery life is also affected depending on the time you have automatic update on your phone because if you have updated very often it spends considerably battery not in use so the phone .. hechale a look at this and help us a lot of your battery greetings
Welll i used to have a similar problem on my wildfire,so i downloaded power max and used it on standard mode and used Go power master with autoswtching and other stuff...just before exchanging it for a Nexus, i had the battery to last around 40 hours with 5 hours of browsing, 3 hours of listening to music and 2 hours of gaming with heavy use of whatsapp and texting and 30-40 minutes of calling...previously my battery use to last only 10 hours...hope this will help you...you can also go up to ebay and buy an extended battery for just Rs.960 which is 3000mah...cheaper than the original smaller battery....link to the extended battery http://www.ebay.in/itm/3000MAh-Exte...4-HTC-Wildfire-G8-/140533335447#ht_1453wt_907

(help) battery draining too fast, new phone

Hello, I have had this phone for 4 days now, and since the first day after the full charge, I haven't got more than 3 hours of screen on time (SOT), today my phone was already at 30% with only 1.5 hours of sot. My usage is average, whatsapp, snapchat, instagram, music, sometimes videos and music. I woke up at 7 to go to school and normally at 9am is already down to 90% with 2 minuts of SOT. Sometimes I have reached 1.5 hours of SOT and the phone was at 75%, but then the draining was too fast. I have already rebooted the phone many times and already done a wipe cache. The phone is on full stock android 6.0.1, what should I do?

see if the drain is still happening.
If not, something you installed is causing the drain.
Go through battery stats and figure out which one, or start uninstalling stuff one by one until drain is gone.

Inconsistent battery life on the OnePlus 3?

Hi y'all,
I've flashed about a week ago the latest open beta of OOS on my OP3. For a few days my battery life was awesome in my regular usage (Browsing, Some social networking, a bit of reddit and some listening to music on roads and at work). I've been able to reach 6-7hr sot easily but after it came the fall, My battery life went inconsistent. Can't even reach 5 hrs of SOT on one single charge and my usage stayed the same. Now i know a lot of you saying SOT isn't a metric for battery life, but note that also my standby time/drain is worse.
Any ideas? I'm listening to music via spotify (offline) if that matters.
latest beta has pathetic battery life for ur info brother
Can you share your Battery Usage stats ?
I have heard many a times , after dirty flashing or upgrading some apps tend to utilize more battery .. the biggest defaulter is Google Photos .. Uninstall that and check again if you have .. this much of battery drain means you have wake locks ..
can tell better after seeing the consumption
the latest OB12 has great battery life for me, best i have had since i had the OP3 since launch day, I used to get about 1 day with about 4hr OST, i always had to charge every day, now i have about 6hr OST and about 2 days between charging, must have been a good flash, it sucks b/c i am a flashaholic

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 Sony Xperia XZ Premium'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!
damn no reviews for this lol im just here letting you guys know that the standby battery is amazing went to sleep yesterday at 12am with 69% of battery woke up today at 7:30am with 67% damn my old lg v20 couldnt do that lol
It's quite bad here with standby drain as well. "Phone Idle" is always on top of the battery usage apps and it's probably a few percent an hour, depending on charge of course. >90% it's 1-2% an hour, but that increases when the charge level drops.
Stock .145 rom with storm//'s hack and have greenify running
Standby drain 0,2-0,4 %/h. locked BL, .145, Greenify.
phone idle coming top 3 with 6% took from 100% in about 4 hours! what could be causing that??
phone idle 4:11 hours
screen time 1:50 hours
36minutes of sniper 3d
7minutes playtube player while screen on (plus 20 minutes screen off)
I am on 57% just after 4 hours of use! while only 1:50 hours of them screen on!
phone idle for 4:11 hours took 6% which is a ratio of (1.5% per hour)
not good at all, what could be the problem??
I tried draining to 0 then charge to 100 on a straight charge while phone is off, phone is factory resetted, locked, not rooted, stock rom .119 oreo
what else can I do here?

I don't know but I have the same issue for months... Usually 2,4-2,8% per hour (when screen off!!) and battery stats not showing anything relevant.
I have everything stock, and I am using Greenify since a ~week, now I have 1,5%-1,8% on standby (which is still a lot, but improved compared to the previous situation).
Is really bad because if I detach my phone at 7 in the morning, at 14 I am already at ~80% without doing nothing! That's also means that using it, specially a lot with maps or things like that, I am not able to go farest than 17-21 :crying:

i noticed that factory reset didnt work for me, neither does software repair
so what I did was, flashed .179 firmware, fresh flashing, wiped every thing!
battery life was almost still the same, it got a lil better.
BUT, I am now using stamina mode any time I dont use the phone much, in my pocket, or even if im slightly using it (whatsapp, instagram etc...), I only turn it off when im gaming or watching some thing which is getting me to lose 1% every 4-6 minutes when using the device, and not losing anything when the device is off (as I activate the stamina mode) this should get me around 6:30-8:00 hours of screen time!
also I noticed I had viberation on navigation buttons, I also had face detection unlock and "ok google" unlock, and google feed and a lot of widgets and a live wallpaper, and avg running in the background.
so I disabled all of these useless features as I really dont use any of them (maybe rarely) and i can feel a slight improvement. (still slight improvement over slight improvement makes a noticeably improvement)
so now I unplugged my device at 17:00 at 90% more or less and now its 22:07 and i still got 56% so in about 5 hours I lost 34% while 2:14 hours, screen was on so its very impressive!
I can get to 6:45 hours of screen use which is very very good! im still testing though.
Nah i know its too late to write this but,.
For you all who have a problem draining battery even at sleep try Greenify Donation Package + Powernap xposed module
Even now my xzp still have sot around 6 hours with 15% battery left. With everything enabled like x-reality, auto brightness, mobile data.
Btw i'm using existenz v10 cusrom + DT2W Kernel
