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 Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.

Can you Please share the usage Graph of your Device ?
Mine drains around 5-6% at night in standby! Its more than average considering the large 5000mah battery
Greenify / Freezing / disabling Google play services, or going nogapps improves battery life x10 times. In other cases, frustrate the app by denying it all permissions, so that it force closes every time it launches automatically (wakelock and drain prevented). Its an analogy to tying a runners shoelaces.....can't run, can't consume battery.
There are how many updates come till now for this phone? Please someone confirms it.
Draining issue is high.
Drained 29% last night..
Seems like software issue

That's true .my phone droped 20% charge last night.
It shows that the battery is consumed by android system is very high. I think it is a software issue
Same problem here after update
Battery drains overnight
I'm using custom rom aex and my battery drain is just 2% for 9hrs 30mins
Same problem here , can it be fixed with future updates ??

Use your phone till it becomes 0% and let it shut down Now press power button for 30 secs and make sure no battery is left to reboot the phone
Charge your phone till 100% with phone turned on/off (but don't use the phone while charging)
After 100% remove from charging and start normal usage till it becomes 0% again and now repeat same procedure 3-4times
Contact Asus CC they might provide better solution for your device after checking device details

Yeah, custom roms are highly optimized though it's unofficial right now I didn't think it would be this good. Well I'm on stock rom still and use greenify which does help a bit, the drain was 4% in 8 and a half hour.
the problem is on the apps that consumes power and data like facebook, instagram and some other similiar apps.
possible fix is disable them. and use fb instag by chrome. it makes the ram usage a bit less because the app wont use ram but "move" the ram usage to chrome.
ideal drain is more, after update and a bug also found Sim 1 hd capable.
I've noticed that my used ram is always above 2.0 gb. I wonder what's running in background consuming this much ram ?, this also might be the root cause of ideal drain I guess.

Hi all,
Why does my battery drains faster? I checked the battery used and "Cell Standby is 70%" could this be the reason of it?
Currently using Custom Rom OptimusXrom v1.1..
Help please..
Download Spare Parts and monitor with that.
Hi badeaioan, I'll check it later.. Thanks!
still my battery drains faster, cell radio is almost 70%.. can somebody help me here?
Install Watchdog. That monitors your app's CPU usage and warns you if it goes above it's threshold.
Also, you can try wiping your battery stats.
already wiped the battery stats... nothings happens.. still the Cell Standby is 70%.. how about yours?
20%.
Do you have SetCPU installed? Try setting a profile that lowers your maximum frequency down to 245MHz when the screen is off.
EDIT: Also, you have to note that the battery info in the about menu is not live information. It updates slowly (once in a while).
yes i have installed SetCPU. I'll try to make a profile, and monitor it.. I'll post an update tom. Thanks.. I'm planning to try UbuntuDroid if this wont work.. I already tried, amber home, prime and currently using optimus x.
Cell standby is also at 75% for me and the battery has juice for 2 days. So don't worry about it.
All the p500 phones show that cell standby is the biggest conssumer (i know 4 guys with same phone). For example on a Galaxy S the screen eats all the battery.
I figured it out!
The battery usage info menu does will not show you whether your battery is draining faster or not.
Here's how it works:
Suppose I have 5 apps: a, b, c, d, and e. Let's say cell standy is app letter a. Overall, battery usage is 100%, right? Assuming everything consumes power at the same rate, app a gets 20%.
If you have cell standby consuming 70% power, everything else consumes 30% power.
Confirm this by visiting your battery info menu. Also, you only have a problem when what's consuming more is an unnecesary app. As for cell standby, I wouldn't worry about it.
Do you have a screenshot of yours?
No I don't have any screen shots, so you mean it's ok that my cell standby is 70% sometimes more... ? My officemate's Samsung galaxy s cell standby is something like 3% - 10%.. that's why I'm thinking that cell standby is the reason why my battery drains faster?
What apps do you have there by the way? I'm guessing there are a few, or many but using only about 1-3%
If you ask me, no. Out of the 100% battery use, cell standby is using 70% of that. 30% goes to everything else.
How you use that 100%, though, is a different story.
hmm.. I see... well I guess I'll try different rom... what rom are you using? I noticed, before I go to sleep,for example I check the battery 90-95% when I woke up and check it again, the battery goes down to 50%... I wonder why... standby.. and drains that fast?

Light. Wow, that's a huge difference Try another ROM. See if that solves the problem.
Yep, that's what I'm planning to do.. I hope it'll solve my problem.. hehehe I'm just waiting for my phone to finish charging.. I'll post an update tomorrow.. Thanks again kpbotbot.. how the rom you're using? how's the battery life?
Feels like the stock ROM (which is why I like it). The only difference is that stuff under the hood are tweaked, optimized, and the like. Plus the useless apps are removed. Battery life is... adequate I can go about a day and get about 60%. I don't know how long 100% will last since I always recharge.
PS - In case you're wondering why I reply so fast, it's because I have nothing to do at home since I was advised to rest for at least a month after release from the hospital xD
Try battery saving apps like juice defender.
Im using juice defender with ultimate juice and use its mobile data toggle widget to switch off my internet when I dnt use it..
hmmm..actually I was.. hahahaha.. now I know why you reply so fast.. Thanks dude.. get well soon..
40% it's a normal value?
I don't know why your battery drains so fast (50% over night is tooo much) but right now for example in "battery use" menu I have:
13h 50m since unplugged
Cell standby 78%
Android system 13%
Display 5%
Voice calls 4%
Android OS 2%
I think this is normal.
Have a Telstra S2 on stock carrier ROM
Experiencing random reboots sometimes even on idle.
Last night I ran stability test to check for RAM and actually the test ran for 5 hours before the battery ran out even though my device was fully charged the beginning and connected to the wall charger
However the device got to 61 degrees temperature!
I emailed the dev and he said its a concern the device is getting that hot and that also that the battery is draining that quickly that it can't keep to keep device charged.
Suggests I should RMA it. What do you guys think?
You stressed the device to it's maximum extent and it ran for 5 hours, so 61°C is VERY NORMAL IMO. No question of RMA and else. And also that is the temperature of the Battery, if that were of CPU I'd like it too
Regards.

Yeah ok that seems fair enough but still I am troubled by these random reboots which I still think I am going to need to RMA for? Shouldn't be happening should they?
Still has the huge battery drain though even when not running the stability test
After you have had the battery drain for a few hours, post up a screenshot of the battery usage page.

Since Jelly Bean release ive noticed that the battery life hasnt really improved for me. Actually its gone to worse. Normally i dont use my tablet very active, so there were cases when i had 10 days between charges. No, even without using, the battery holds maximum of 4 days.
I dont have wifi lock, i have disabled backup, only have synchronisation of gmail and drive, but i had those on before aswell.
What i see in the battery graph is that even when wifi and display are off, something still wakes the tablet every 10-15 mins or so and drains the battery. In the stats it says that the "Standby mode" has the most usage...
Could anyone help me with some app to diagnose that problem or share similar expiriences..

I resolved my battery problems using Wakelock Detect:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.uzumapps.wakelockdetector&hl=en
You might want to give it a try. Turned out that some badly written application was holding wake lock on my XTS and thus jeopardizing the battery life. I also use Battery Monitor Widget:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.bmw
It won't tell you source of the problems but it will tell you how much battery is drained when your device was sleeping.

Btw. for WLD enable advanced mode from settings. It was system process which was holding wake lock and by default, WLD does not show system processes at all (!!!).
batery life always been awfull on XTS it was't bad but it could last easy 3 day's on single charge if sony optimise it.
my nexus 7 i can easy achieve 2 day's on single charge maybe 3 day's and it only has like 4200 mah batery with wifi actualy staying on always.
now in standby only drains like 1% batery per 3 hours
XTS always drained 2% per hour for me in standby

Wtf, that would drain the battery in two days?! Definetly some program has wake loke on your device. I havent done any measurements, but I think I've left my device on my table for week and read E-mails every now and then without any charge and it still has some juice left!

Actually on ICS i had one time when i had 18 days of standby and i used the tablet occasionally
Update on thread:
I found out Google Maps was waking the sysem every 10-15 minutes to look for a location, even tho GPS and Wifi were off. I disabled Latitude and automatic locking on location and also disabled every location option possible (use wifi to lock location etc.) and now its better..

As you are saying that your mobile seems "hot"
First you need to confirm that its charger/device issue or only with battery.
First do battery calibration with this method: (In this method you need custom recovery for your device
This may help you

Dont forget to thank him there on his thread.
IMPORTANT: You can skip this step>> "Wait 20 min after you are sure it is 100% (phone should stay plugged in)" - As i dont know much about LG devices and their batteries
Now some advice from me-
If you can cover it >>> Never charge battery again and again before 15 or 20%
Always charge your battery to 100% at once and use your device till 15% or less than 15% and then again charge it full and so on...
This will make your battery backup good as well for battery life

According to the Battery Doctor app, you shouldn't leave your phone on charge for more than 9-10 hours(MAX), otherwise it WILL harm your battery.
You should try hibernating some of those apps with Greenify.
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
BetterBatteryStats
Use better battery stat (check play store) or similar app to track draining application.
In this way you can find a culprit

Yes, over charge can reduce battery life.
I got the phone yesterday, I set it up but haven't transferred my sim yet but I've noticed that the battery drain when idle is quite severe. I've only done the OnePlus transfer. And WiFi has always been on. But this battery drain is not got at all.
Can anyone please advise how to improve it. In fact , I had put it on battery saver mode and it still drained. For example at 10% decrease over 7 hours is not good. I expect a 1-2 % decrease overnight.

Try uninstalling OnePlus Switch. You don't need it if you've set up your device already.

This is just how this phone works, and I recommend you to not expect what you experienced before with your previous phone would happen on this phone. I don't know if one can use Greenify's aggressive doze function without rooting, but it definitely improved the battery drain overnight by a lot on my 7T Pro non-5G McLaren.
