As you can see my phone Charges pretty fast. It Charges 0 to 100 in one hour. But charge Drains fast also like 4 and half hour screen time. Im on MIUI 13 global.

That's stock MIUI, right? It's possible you have some background stuff going on that drains the battery on a regular basis. If you haven't already, try clearing your Recents view to see if that helps.
I am using Arrow OS 12.0, myself, and ended up enabling the Developer Options selection for 'kills all activities once user leaves them'. This improved my active consumption rate from being ~8-9% per hour to ~6% per hour. You can give it a try, too!

Yes its stock. I couldnt find any app yet, im Still searching and looking for a help.
Oh, maybe you have the same issue that I had.
Check if the MIUI gallery is going crazy in the background. I have yet to figure out what caused that, but it wrecked havoc on my device.
Get something to view your CPU frequency in real time, normally all cores should idle at under 1000MHz with nothing else open in the background (I used CPU Float to check that).
If your little and/or middle cores appear to be clocked high, try to see if force closing the gallery and not reopening it helps. I fixed it for good only after having disabled its storage permission, ended up switching to google photos instead.
Hope this helps.

I'm running AOKP 20 and Franco kernel but seem to be getting really bad battery life. I see folks claiming 1% battery loss over 8-9 hours of sleep. Mine loses 12-15% while I sleep and that is with WIFI on.
I'm not real familiar with the Better Battery Stats or Battery Monitor Widget. Can I use one of those to find out what is killing my battery life?
Does anyone know of something that might be causing this or how I can find out what it is?
Rogue app? Wich Franco are you using?

I tried 14.4 but went back to 13.1 hoping things would improve. Same on both.
Better Battery Stats' ugly interface really does mask what I feel is a great app. In your case, assuming you have it installed, change the top box in the app to Kernel Wakelocks and Partial Wakelocks and see what is preventing your phone from sleeping (post the screenshots of the two pages if they mean nothing to you).
I've also found CPU Spy to be an easier to understand quick overview of what's going on with my device. It'll list out the various clock speeds my kernel has and how much time was spent in each. If you notice "deep sleep" isn't the biggest bar, you likely have something going on.

Yup, yup. I was going to suggest CPUSpy, it's a decent little app. My phone will spend ~60-70% of the time in deep sleep over a nine hour or so period with WiFi on.
It looks like my phone is going into deep sleep and then something is waking it up and it can't go back. These processes don't mean much to me...

The audio out wake lock is caused by keyboard sounds, touch sounds and screen lock/unlock sounds. Turn those off.
The other wakelock seems to be your gallery syncing constantly.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Touch sounds were on, I turned those off. Why would those be waking my phone up in the middle of the night though?
How do I keep my gallery from syncing constantly? The only setting I see in the gallery options is to turn off my google account sync which I assume would turn off my gmail and other things as well?
Never mind, I found where to turn off photo sync.
Is it normal for touch sounds and gallery updates to keep your phone awake all the time? If so, what is the point of having them if they are going to eat your battery...
what franco are you using?

Here is a screen of my overnight usage. I don't know why but I've just noticed the clock has gotten stuck. Stupid thing.
*Edit* I have a few things syncing over night, and the LED was literally flashing for the entire time, I didn't check my e-mails on purpose to see what nine and a half hours battery drain would do when that bright little LED was flashing all night, not bad I reckon!

15% after 63 hours, UV and OC
I have been having issues with cm10.1 "android OS" using too much battery. And i have seemed to squash out the bugs. nearly doubling screen time. (in the sense that by bed time i had about 4 hours screen time and 10% battery left and now can hit 8 hours in a day)
I am going to slowly try different things to see where hte main issues were. but here are the majority of the changes i made.
1. Wifi, this should be off during the day, simple but true. Also i noticed build.prop had wifi scan interval set to 15 instead of the recommended 120
2. Auto rotate screen, i have read this has bugs in some builds (not sure on ours) it should be disabled unless you absolutely need it, you can add a quick tile for quick toggling. (I honestly think this is the biggest cuplrit)
3. Dev options, try to have all unneeded dev options off. I had strict mode enabled, not sure if it made a difference, but its useless cpu cycles.
4. Battery apps, as helpful as they are, uninstall asap, unless you are isolating a problem they eat cpu cycles trying to figure out what is eating your cpu cycles...
5. Notification Light, its not the LED so much as it is the CPU cycles required for the timing of the led light.
6. sign out of or uninstall/freeze (disable) google talk.
7. disable gps (use quick toggle for when really needed)
8. go to system settings -> google (under accounts) -> maps & lattitude -> make sure "report from this device" is unchecked and if you dont move around a lot (aka you work really close to home) turn location reporting to either do not update, or set location...
9. and of course any other common place one, screen brightness etc...
I will slowly implement these back in to see if they cause the drain to come back.
I think its auto rotation honestly, but it could have been a combination of all of them.
I get 8-9 hours on stock 4.1.2
I get 6 hours screen time in 4.2.2 without doing any of that, and I still think that's pretty bad compared to touchwiz. I use all those functions mentioned (except gtalk) all the time, so cm10.1 is nowhere near usable as a daily driver for me.
So battery is not draining on its own anymore.
Now time to find the culprit.
If its autorotation then the cm team can fix it and that's a good thing

I'm not saying cm10.1 is the culprit. I'm trying to figure out what is and so I can help squash it.

Hello guys i dont know if it is posted already but , im having problems with my battery life im using my phone for a couple of weeks now. I tried to factory reset my phone but still, i also installed greenify to see if it is because of an app but NO. Basically i find that sometimes the battery peecentage drains so rapidly without me doing anything on the phone with my brightness at 0% and all other stuff like gps, sync etc turned off. Also another big problem is that the battery percentages skips i may be using my phone at 88% but suddenly it goes down to 84% thats really dissapointing.
I have heard people praise about the battery life of this phone which is one of the reason i bought it but now its not what i expected especially with the skips.
If you guys can help me do anything I would really appreciate it.
Thanks
Hello,
please run this App "BetterBatteryStats". Post a screenshot.

Did you do a restore of previous apps or a clean re-install ?

Set GPS on battery saving. Use high accuracy only when required.

I did a clean re install , and i put my location services off since when i noticed the percentage skips and drain
Also i forgot to say that some times when i use the phone for some time say im at 49% then after switching off the screen for some time and coming back later sometimes it says 50 or 51%.

What does GPS say when you go to location.
Regardless of whether its off, ensure it says battery saving and not high accuracy.
Can you post some usage grabs. How much sot/runtime do you get on average, with wifi only, with data only and a mix of the two.

Hello,
I just created this thread to post a tip that works perfectly with me to enhace battery life and it's very simple to do and i wanted to share it with you.
and it's just switching from BALANCED to SAVE BATTERY like you could see in the photos above, with this i gained +~40% of battery life. In my case i don't use the phone hugely but the way my battery drains was frustrating me even without using it constantly it was draining fast in stand by only.
before i tried this option i was always using DARK MODE and disabling auto start for apps almost for every app etc just to boost the battery life, and now when im on SAVE BATTERY im back to the LIGHT MODE and using the phone with the least battery life extension measures. i joined another photo showing the few optimisations i use.
i had to charge it 2 to 3 times per day from 20% to over 85%, now i don't even think about charging because i know that 50% of the lasting battery can absolutly be enough for me to the end of the day. (as i mentioned before im not a huge user of the phone), so when you use it in games for exemple it will drain as fast as it used to drain, i think it's way of working is limiting the process in the backgroud.
it's a good deal when watching films and videos in a browser also, i use kiwi browser with chrome extensions like ublock to block ads, the battery life is better when you switch to BATTERY SAVE option even when you put the brigtness at higher levels. i don't know about NETFLIX etc i don't use it so TBT.
Now i use 90 hz refresh date in i assume that i charge the phone 2 times per day just for ~35-25% or less just in less 15 minutes just to keep the battery over 70% and it doesn't bother me att all.
i wish this could be helpful for you guys

Good afternoon!
I have a question about AOSP based ROM's. At first I thought this was only occurring in the Nameless ROM but I can also find this behavior on other custom ROM's. It seems that apps are getting closed automatically after some time, as if I would go to the 'Recents' screen (or however this screen is called) and I would swipe those apps away.

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This is definitely noticeable when I wake up in the morning, almost all my apps are gone from Recents while I almost never swipe any apps away. I find this behavior not efficient since my phone never makes use of the 12GB RAM which I've spend extra money on. Here you can see that only 7 GB is actually used (including cached processes).
When I open up all my apps at once my RAM usage goes up but after some time it seems to close apps and it goes back to 5-6 GB of usage or so.
I find this frustrating. I have an iPhone 12 from work and I use that phone rarely. But a week later I can expect my app to still be open where I left it.
In the ROM's I tried, I tried disabling any battery savers if there were any, without result. I also have FKM installed and tried changing some memory related kernel settings which did appear to have some effect but that also might be a placebo and tbh I'm not fully aware what kernel settings I should apply.
TLDR: Can anyone advice me how I can stop my AOSP rom from clearing apps in the background?
Thanks for your input
Kind regards,
GolovaRaoul
Hi,
I have not tried any custom ROM yet, but I can confirm that default ROMs for "OnePlus, Xiaomi, Samsung" are all doing the same behavior once the phone is setting down and not being used for a while "sleep mode" this actually good in my opinion, it will automatically close all apps except the apps you are choosing to not to be closed "locked apps" in oxygen os, you can select multiple apps to prevent them from being closed during night or even when you tap "close all" button.
So, I think this is an Android optimization to save battery during night not only in AOSP ROMs.
Thanks for your response
Well I don't like this behavior personally. It takes time and processing power to re-open apps and navigate them back to the stage where I had them before. I need to relaunch Spotify 5 times per day which is annoying and I really shouldn't need to on a flagship smartphone with 12 GB of RAM.

This actually not belong to RAM capacity itself, it is system implementations and how should apps behave. As I said it will only close the apps during "sleep period" and you can select multiple apps that you want them run in background all the time see attached photos.
You are welcome

Yeah you could be right about the behavior. I still want to change it tho. And by default, AOSP does not have something like 'memory locking' and this is a feature of Oyxgen OS.
