1)Wifi is on 24x7
2)Social Networking(Whatsapp+Hike+Instagram+Facebook)
3)Email push services( 2 Gmail accounts)
4)Browsing(Chrome)
5)6-9 calls (5mins each approx)
I am just loving it (No bugs so far except that SD card 1 which will surely get fixed in next OTA) with superb battery, design aesthetics and yeah main selling point DISPLAY
Hope it helped some lonely surfers who are still finding a way to not buy the phone. I will say don't waste time if you have an invite just grab it. In next month when One Plus will Open source it's kernel, things will be far better placed than now(Custom kernels and roms )

Great.
I am getting a SOT of 4 hours, and generally make it home with 10% left in the tank.
I charge my phone before going to bed till 100. Disconnect. Set the alarm. Goto sleep.
Wake up. Overnight drain is around 10%.
Leave for office at 8. My phone is always connected to wifi or 3G. Also both sims are active. Bluetooth always active.
No email sync. Also I have disabled most notifications except calls. The only thing syncing is Whatsapp. Location disabled.
Also disabled auto brightness.
With similar settings my moto g delivers 6 hours SOT.
So I believe OPX is just average. But still kinda expectsed.

There is a dedicated battery life discussion thread already here,

No need for multiple threads on the subject. :good:

[Q] Battery chart

To be honest i was expecting a slightly longer battery life. Judging from what people write around here their battery life is considerably longer than mine.
I was looking at battery drain chart and was wondering if there is an app or another way i can check what contributes to my phone being 'Awake' as from what i see in the chart it's awake alot. Maybe a bit too much.

Upload a pic of your percentages, that'd help a lot with seeing what your problem is and therefore how to fix it.
Oh god, stop making new threads about the battery life. Your battery life is completely normal. Theres a thread JUST like this posted like 30 mins ago, I'll take my reply off it;

Becuase your phone was in use for a lot of that time.
Normally I get 7-10 hours battery life with my semi-heavy usage.
But yesterday I tested to see if I could get more, I only used the phone for four 5 minute phone calls, tonnes of texts, a little bit of web browsing and a little bit of youtube on 3G and wifi. No games or anything, and the battery still had 40% left after 20 1/2 hours.
But with my normal usage as i said, I get 7 - 10 hours.

long story short. Your battery life is COMPLETELY normal.

Battery life w/ ViperROM + JDU

Just wondering if anyone has discussed anything about battery life with this specific ROM and using Juice Defender Ultimate (or not).
I've done a quick search and didn't find anything and I looked on the viperROM thread and I saw the dev claimed he got 19 hours of battery life on it. I'm only getting around 9hrs on it now.
Any ideas\suggestions?

Try calibrating Ur battery. JDU is good to use. Also grab autostarts and stop apps from running in the background. After calibrating your battery life should almost double.
Sent from my Beastly EVO.. And did I mention it has 3D?
I use JD and Viper and no problems. Not real sure what my battery life is because I don't monitor it that much but if I take it off the charger at 6am by 4pm when I leave work it is usually around 75-80%. That is with probably an hour of podcast listening and a few other things like texts and phone calls. Not a power user but not completely ignored either.
It depends on usage... i ALWAYS make it a whole day. Light usage i made it more then two, with a bad wake lock that drained 20% before i noticed it.
I'm on Viper and I use not juice things. Here's the battery life I'm getting.

Download CPU Spy from the market and see if you have any widgets or apps preventing your phone from going into DEEP SLEEP.

[Q] Custom Rom bad for battery idle

Hi,
I'm off to a festival soon and usually I have to bring 2 standard fully charged batteries and a 4300mAh anker battery to get through because all the ROMs I use seem to drain my battery, idle or not.
I have rooted my S3 since the beginning, going through a ridiculous amount of custom ROMs but now I'm starting going back to stock would be a better option. I've been using an iPhone 5 recently and was absolutely amazed when I fully charged it at 100% and then 2 hours later it hadn't dropped a single percent, granted it was locked the whole time but if I did this with my current S3 then I would of lost probably around 10 percent.
Can anybody recommend me a good ROM and tell me how much battery they're left with when they go to sleep/wake up. Approximately I will lose probably about 35-40% during the night.
right now i'm using the latest version of android revolution on my i9300
Stay on sammy based roms if you want better battery life, and if you want, stay on stock for stability, just fully debloat it from all of samsung crapola and install for ex. boeffla kernel. Kernel is the main succesor for good battery life in my opinion.
Then try playing with the kernel in boeffla settings, if you stick to zzmoove governor you'll get max 1% drop overnight (that's 8-9h).
Also to mention, all apps are greenified except Facebook and Whatsapp, WiFi was on but sync, gps, bluetooth etc was off, aaand battery is 1.5y old.
P(r)oof:
When i wen't to sleep round 1AM it was on 71%, in 9AM it was on 70%.

I had boeffle before but didn't alter the default governor, just changed it to zzmove/zzmove battery so going to charge phone to full and see what drops I have, thanks for the tip

Battery Drain on Every Android Device with different ROMs and SIM cards.

Hi,
I have an issue for over a year now. I am feeling kind of cursed. I try to explain my situation without too much detail.
I have a Honor 6 smartphone, after a few weeks my battery time got terrible. From 6h SoT (screen-on-time), I am now at ~2.5hrs on average. Since then, I have this battery draining thing on EACH phone.
I thought my phone was corrupt, so I ordered another Honor from Amazon (different model). I set up my Google account and installed WhatsApp. After a few full-charges, I was looking at my battery time: same terrible thing. People were getting ~7hrs SoT, my average was 2-3hrs.
I thought maybe Huawei made some mistakes with the Honor models, so I tried a OnePlus device. Guess what? Same issue.
I switched my network providers a few times. So it's not a SIM card related problem.
Is it possible that my Google account is somewhat "corrupt"? Because that's the only technical thing that's the same on each device.
It sounds like a conspiracy theory, that Google wants me to have bad battery life but I am serious. Could this be possible? I don't want to switch, I use many Google services (contacts, email, drive, etc)
Symptoms of my problem:
Occurs on several devices, sim cards (Austrian network providers A1, HoT, yesss), roms and android versions (from 4.4.2 to 6.0.1)
App usage of Android System is at least ~30% battery
Screen brightness around 30% auto brightness
LTE, GPS/Location, Bluetooth always disabled (I don't use these)
Battery drain while screen off: 3-5% per hour!
SoT around 50% of the values other people have (on the OnePlus I got 3hrs instead of 6, Honor devices 2.5 - 3.5 instead of 5-7)
Screenshot examples:

Does anyone have a clue? I spent too much time with rooting, factory resetting, researching, etc. in the last 14 months - now I have no idea any more.
Thanks in advance!
One more thing: I use GSam Battery Monitor, BatteryBatteryStats, Wakelock Detector - and they can't "help" me.
Is there another tool, which has even more details? I don't think so, but there has to be hope

Mate 10 pro battery drain

I have a Mate 10 pro with very high battery drain. During the night 6-8hours it can drop from 100% to in worst case 75%.
I have done many factory resets and just installed basic apps (for me). Up til now I've been used dual SIMs. But this morning I removed one of the SIMs to see if that makes any difference.

To start with, Google Services (in their fifteen million different flavours) will chew through a lot of battery power in the first couple of hours after a factory reset.
Secondly, have you tried doing a tiered installation of your non-standard apps, to see at which point the battery starts going South? It may be that one or more of your apps don't know how to run properly under Oreo? I'd be paying particular attention to Samsung's apps, as their programmers have never been known to care about how the software will run on non-Samsung devices.
Thirdly, have you investigated why the apps which were auto-launched, were auto-launched? If (for example) Slides was auto-launched because you were looking at a presentation from an e-mail, then fine - but I've encountered apps in the past which keep trying to re-start themselves for no valid reason (most notably apps which try to maintain ad revenue even when you're not using them).
Finally, though the signal strength on your screenshots would indicate that you have decent coverage, if you're in a borderline area and the 'phone is having to constantly switch between LTE/UMTS/GSM just to remain connected, that will chew through a lot of battery without anything worthwhile to show for it. If this is the case with either of your SIMs, try forcing that SIM to remain on a single standard (for example, limit it to just UMTS/GSM); that helped me in the past with an Asus PadFone 2 and the rather pathetic carrier I was using at the time (yes, it was Optus).
This is happening to me as well. Started a few days ago, maybe a week I think. All of a sudden, out of nowhere. No apps draining battery. 20% ish drain during the night. Seems like there are many users having this problem the last week after a quick google search.
Last night I went to bed at 2:00. The battery started to drain from 5:00-10:00. No apps have been draining battery during this time.
