If it is a mic icon it may mean an app is accessing the mic. Check to see what's running.
The white ring is wretched...
Lol, I'm still running on 9 and 10... and I like it.

I guess I will hard reset for remove it. I checked everything but couldn't find the solution.
At least you can try 11

Ummm, don't bet on that!
A factory reset is recommended after a major upgrade so there's that. That aside I always prefer finding the root cause whenever possible.
You can also try clearing the system cache.
The highest I'll go on my N10+'s is 10. They run fast, very stable and are fulfilling their mission.
The one running on 9 current load will be 2 yo in June with minimal maintenance. I reboot it when I think about it, sometimes 3 days or more. I'd be kicking myself if I lost this upgrading as at this point they're optimized and have all the bugs worked out or worked around.

You may want to check what apps have permission to display over other apps

I upgraded both Note 10 plus as soon as I got them to android 11, they run for weeks if not months without rebooting and they are fast stable reliable phones. I think your problems is more between your both ears than on your phones...same with battery's. The oldest has its original battery in it...not exploded nor inflated/bulged back yet. Same for the 4 years old Huawei's we have, all running on original batteries, granted their batterie life has degraded but not to an extend that these phones are no longer useful.
You have to change your tune as it is getting old and very boring after being repeated in every tread...

Could it be "Tips" icon?

Your Li battery knowledge is... amusing.
Live and learn then... there's no point to keeping a degraded Li other than ineptitude, apathy or proverty.

If so you should be able to punch it. Apparently it's static by glitch or design.

This really works - doubled my Desire battery life!!!

HTC recommended solution!
1) Turn your device ON and Charge the device for 8 hours or
more
2) Unplug the device and Turn the phone OFF and charge
for 1 hour
3) Unplug the device Turn ON wait 2 minutes and Turn OFF
and charge for another hour. Your battery life should almost
double, we have tested this on our devices and other agents
have seen a major difference as well
I was very reluctant but after trying it I must admit it does work!
Good Luck!

In my opinion the battery recalibration doesnt work..
I mean, after that, the battery show 100% for a very long period (this good), and goes to 90% jsut after a long period (this good again).
But after that, it starting going down faster than the normal behaviour OR sometimes the phone power off its self when the battery is still more than 10% instead to power off when the battery is at 5 % as usual.
That what i've noticed.
That is calibarting your battery need to do when you get the phone initially. you cant do that every time. Honestly if you do that your battery will be Sc***ed

Ohhh *****y!
Not being *****y, the OP posted something that's already on here so of course they're going to get flamed...my response was to the guy calling me a prick (and it would seem they think there's a swear filter on here, that or they're just so cool they use numbers instead of letters)
Some nerds spend too much time on forums
Not a nerd mate, just have an interest - work gets boring time to time and when I'm not DJing I need something to take my mind off things...if you're going to try and talk a good game you'd best be able to back it up
As a quick note, this method doesn't work per se but it gives the impression of longer battery life - it stays at a high % for longer but then drops off quite quickly
... after all that....
right then people. lets be constructive and help a chappy out. I've recently had absolutely sucky battery life. It was OK with LeeDroid 2.2e, latest radio, but then I upgraded to 2.2f and everything went to pot. Seriously, just with moderate use I was getting 12 hours at best. Overnight charge, unplug at 7am, by mid afternoon it was switching off again. This is not how it used to be.
So I switched to Oxygen 0.1.3 Beta - still sucked
Now on CyanogenMod - which I love, but battery life still sucks. Trying various radios, but IT ALL STILL SUCKS!!!
I've now switched over to 2G only, turned off auto sync and mobile internet, except when I want them, just to get through the day.
Help!
I have searched and there are generic answers, all of which I have done. I have recalibrated (don't start that flame war again please) and found negligable benefit.
Your thoughts would be much appreciated (short of buy a bigger battery).
Have you tried a stock ROM at all? It could very well be something in the custom ROM(s) you're using. At least then you'd know if it's the handset itself

Hmmm... interesting thought. I may well get a full on Orange UK RUU on the phone and see what happens. I'll report back if and when I get round to it and test it out properly.
There's your issue - there isn't an Orange RUU
You could try a stock WWE one, though (with a gold card)

Horrible Battery Life on Moto 360(1st Gen)

Hello,
I own a moto 360(2014) and I am barely able to get more than 6 hours of battery life.
Things I have tried to do :
Factory Resetting
Paring to different phones with different android versions
Using it just as a watch without bluetooth and Wifi
Below are some screenshots :

Guys Please help me..
Did this just start for you?
I've owned my watch for years, and last week suddenly started having issues. I can't help but wonder if there was a software change that is causing excessive drain.

Not really no.
I've not got any software update over a year I think.
The watch was off for a while, about a month.
But since then it's got really bad.
I've faced similar issues with android phones, where wiping the battery stats makes the battery life as good as stock. If there is a way to achieve this it would be the ideal solution.
Get your battery replaced. I did mine and now Im getting full day outof it compared to half day before.

Did you go to the service centre?
or purchased the battery online and fitted it from outside?
if you did purchase online a link would be helpful
I did get this battery some time ago on ebay. Im in uk. It wasnt genuine battery but VHBW brand which for my experience is reliable.
Replaced it by myself. There is some guide on the web for doing it. Hardest thing is to get back cover without breaking it. I actually broken my one being carefull, its so fragile.
after another phone side android wear update my battery life is back to normal. Off the charger at 7 AM, and at 7 PM I still have 40% left in the tank.

yes, now on 2.7.0.177669439
I've had these issues for about a year now. No updates have made a difference for me. It's not that my battery depletes quickly though, it's that the watch powers off with plenty of battery left and doesn't come back on until charged, usually at the 50-60% mark.
It's nearly 2pm here, been off the charger since maybe 8am, still at 69% battery but I bet it'll be gone in an hour or so.
Is it possible to get a custom ROM for these in case it's a software issue?
UPDATE: couple of minutes later, at 67% it has died.....
ht tps://ww w.youtu be.com/watch?v=wl61mDJlu9E
use this guide! Its so easy to replace the battery!
I also replaced my battery but I used this guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1as_h5jnBM he explains very well and some steps explained poorly in the ifixit guide are shown here detailed. The hardest part is removing the backcover without cracking it. I failed and cracked mine but battery is perfectly fine now, for the cracked backcover there are some replacements for about 20€. However I own a 3D printer and will print me a new backcover by myself, I hope it will be fine, i will provide some pictures at the end of the week just in case someone is interested

For me I noticed that Snapchat and Instagram has been taking alot of battery now where I just used 30m of Snapchat taking 17% battery and Instagram 57min taking 11%.
What do you guys think?

I can agree with draining but not with the heat honestly. Since I just do social media often.
I have seen a few reports that Android Auto started working for some users with the Feb update.
Can't say that I've noticed poor battery performance, but that's not to say that it isn't legit.
Overall, feels like the same device I had running the January image, nothing says WOW...
Actually for me, the battery has been better.
I think so Battery its better with the update on My pixel..
The biggest thing for me was the bluetooth connection in may car. I have an LG Watch sport connected to my phone all the time. Before the update, it was like the watch didn't want to let go of the phone, and it would not automatically connect to the car when I got in. I would have to go into the phone, and manually select the car to connect. Then I would have to wait a minute or more before I could play music or make a phone call or the car would tell me it was searching for a phone to connect to, even though the BT light was on indicating a device was connected. The first time I got in my car, after flashing the February update, after I started the car, my phone immediately connected to the car, and Android Auto fired up just like it is supposed to. I was able to listen to music, and make phone calls right away. It has happened like that ever since. I'm so very happy that it works like it's supposed to now. As for battery, it's still great. My 2 XL has always had killer battery life. I can go about a day and a half on one charge. A couple weeks ago, I took a Friday off from work, and was busy moving, so I didn't use my phone a whole lot. I took it off the charge on Friday morning about 8:00 am, and I didn't have to charge it until Sunday around lunch time.
Okay, I'll keep watching my battery... Maybe it was a random temporary decline... Your experiences sound good
When I do these updates, I usually clear the cache for Play services and Google services framework. Maybe it's the flashaholic side of me that always wants to clean flash everything...
Hmmm, I will try now from 100-20%~
Have you guys tried recalibrating the battery? Since a lot of these battery issues people complain about are right after updates. Haven't updated to Feb patch yet tho so I can't comment on battery life.
Just tried 100 to 3% and I would say its been better, Usually I barley came up to 6h and now its 6h and 44 min!
Here below is my apps:
I think battery is excellent, if it wasn't for Maps I know I can get more out of it:

Any release notes?
Probably going to update (OTA) the next days. Flashed the russian pie rom and received this OTA. Working fine except for "Smart backlight control" stopping to work (when using USB tethering over a longer period of time, weird). I don't have wifi yet so i need to make sure my mobile internet is enough to try out Torchlight Fronters this weekend, that's something i definily don't want to miss. I'll give feedback if i find anything unexpected in that update.
UPDATE: Disabling Smart background control fixed my issue. Luckily it's not really something neccesary.
i also got the update and installed it. Nothing has changet at UI, i think

You're making some pretty harsh accusations, even going so far as to call them "shameless", but without anything to back it up, and even becoming overly defensive after getting called out on it, you come off as just an immature kid spewing nonsense (basically slander) on the internet.
It's perfectly fine to complain about worse battery life after the upgrade. That by itself is valuable input of actual user experiences that adds to the conversation and provides people more perspectives to what may happen after upgrading to Pie.
But to go one step further and claim that the weaker battery life is because of a conspiracy to purposefully cripple your phone in order to get you to go and buy the latest model?
If you have actual evidence indicating that the age old theory is actually true, by all means blow that whistle and tell us.
Otherwise, you're just spreading false information pulled out of your ass instead of contributing to any meaningful discussion. I don't see how you can justify that sort of behavior.
My battery life is just fine since going to Pie. If you don't like it, just roll back to Oreo.
@puiatmp: Why did you purchase a Sony device in the first place, if you despise the company that much?
I don't know if it was mentioned before. The .33 firmware contains Android pie with November security patch:

you are absolutely right, and world is run by aliens as well, lol
fwiw my phones battery lasts a lot more after upgrading to PIE. usually 2-3 days with normal use, including about 2-3 hours voice calls, 1-2 hours internet browsing, usual emails, 1-2 hours gps while driving, approx 6-7 hours SOT . you better check if you have some power hungry apps running at backround. anyway, making such absurd accusations without having anything backing it up is childish and doesn't give anyone anything.
UPDATE: Smart backlight control was the thing making problems. Disabling this fixed my problems. Pie is fast, my battery life seems to be even better than before but Wifi WPS is missing i think or maybe it just got moved somewhere else.

Oh paranoid android will come to our device alright! It just won't be supported for more than like an update like always. Everytime I switch to PA they abandon it.

Lmao you're right though I'm not falling for the hype anymore. It seems they just do it for likes , shares and donations cuz for the like the last few years they'll announced a new version when the next Android os drops then after a build or 2 they go missing again for a whole year or 2 and leave us in the dust I'm good!
yeah i stayed away as its not guaranteed to be updated all the time
my go to custom ROMs are AOSIP or Havoc but neither are developing for P6 I think. But Proton does look like it could be good also.
Agree with the commenters here; Paranoid Android is no longer reputable (and hasn't been in many years). ProtonAOSP, Lineage, AOSIP, and a bunch of other mainstream ROMs will officially support the P6 so it is absolutely not worth messing with PA.
I'd like to add "but" the more developers working on the P6P the better for everyone, even if one group's stuff isn't up to snuff. At least, as long as they share information when appropriate, which the best developers do, in my opinion.

Yeah, development on the P5 was severely lacking but on the P6 and the P6P many more people have it in their hands. Unfortunately, I don't root any longer but I like to see the tweaks and new stuff the devs come up with. (I actually rooted my P5 and loaded a rom before rolling it back before I sent it in for trade-in) Specifically kernel tweaks which are usually drastically needed. Nonetheless, it's a good start as you say.
