Hi guys!
With your help i try to create rough a comparison between all roms and their battery usage/drain.
For sure it wont be 100% accurate because everyone uses their phone differently, but i try to value posts from similar users and usages higher and try to take an average amount. Lets try it at least.
Rules/Guidelines:
- Stock Kernal
- No bigger modifications like underclocking GPU & CPU
- [important] Post screenshot of active/idle % per hour & sot (preferably from same monitor app maybe "Franco Kernal Manager" is popular) + screenshots of full battery/device(inclusive "display") usage in settings.
- May temporarily disable battery saver apps for this day posting screenshots
- Post Screenshots of a "full day" not only of 2-3 hours and at best not more then a single day.
- Add the Rom version and Gapps variant
- Be fair & please dont troll & fake (like leaving the phone screen on while doing nothing on it or photoshop ...)
Google Spreadsheet Table
On this Spreadsheet i will collect all your data, maybe later i will drop some charts or search for a different service.
Advice/improvement tips are appreciated.
Thanks.
SOT for me means screen off time.

The details are in the last picture. I always limit battery charge to 80 % and never go to zero. No gapps. 23 frozen apps, 31 running.
Ressurection remix is f*****g insane
14h sot from 100% to 8% with every battery saving mode on

With a light use everyday (a few pictures shot and sent through Telegram, one hour music listening through bluetooth) it appears RR can last more than 10 days. I bet that if I wanted to charge to 100 %, it could last 2 weeks. I wish I had that ROM on my Mi Note 10. In my screenshots, full charge means 80 % because I want this battery to last longer.

I cant add anything to my table if you dont provide all the data i need, mentioned in the rule section. Aswell your usage is way to light for a "normal/moderate usage".
But i appreciate your images aswell, it looks insane.

You could try to reset the phone but you will have to reinstall all your apps so I would use the backup feature before you try it. If that doesn't work then you would be better off exchanging it if you are within the 14 day return policy.
the est time remaining is a dynamic estimate, it will change depending on use. i've read that it could have something to do with google accounts constantly syncing if you are experiencing poor battery life. a reset seems to fix it for now, i would try that, and if it's still poor, exchange it like bjd223 says..
Well, it hasn't been charged since but it's showing 9 since last charge and 9 hours remaining with 35 percent left. That initial amount was disconcerting though.
like i said, it's all dynamically changing and is based upon the usage pattern of the last poll, so if you were using the device heavily and then went to check the battery saver stats, it would base the est time remaining on as if you were using the phone in the same way until the battery died. if you start using it less and then go back and check (like i'm assuming you did) it will give you a new estimate based on that usage pattern. i've had it tell me i have 50% left and like almost 2 days of time remaning.
android's battery graph works in a similar way, it just shows you more detailed information of what's using your battery.
Agree with @adiliyo that the phone battery status will keep changing on how you are using your phone. I get around the same time as my lumia 900 and sgs2 which is anything between 13 -19 hours depending how I use it ( I am used to overnight charging).
Some Battery Culprits
Nokia Drive Beta + ( If you open this when closing it is suggested to keep pressing the back arrow key until you reach homescreen to exit it properly
Background Tasks - Disable whatever you don't need to in the settings menu
Email Sync - Try using a longer duration ( I use one hour for four email accounts )
and I always switch WIFI or Bluetooth off when not in use.
And Poor Network Signal will always drain your battery as the phone as to work harder to get a proper signal also resulting in the phone getting hotter especially during browsing
Hi everyone!
I got my Sony Xperia Z2 two days ago from Sony, and I'm noticing the battery isn't lasting nearly as long as the reviews (or official specs for that matter) say.
For example at 1pm it was fully charged, and now at 9pm (8 hours later) it's down to 58%, with a usage I would describe as moderate (mostly Wi-Fi use, streamed two YT videos, used chrome a little, listened to some music).
Yesterday I spent most of the day setting it up with apps and stuff and it died before the end of the day...
Coming from iOS I don't really know what to expect!
Please tell me about your battery and usage so I know if my expectations are too high or if my battery is acting weird.
Here are my battery settings.

Thanks guys!
(P:S: by the time I wrote this post my battery was down 4% for example)
Turn on stamina mode.
Also go into stamina mode by pressing the word and then tick restrict performance. I'm getting over 7 hours screen on time

Also, click on battery usage and then screen to show the screen on time. That's most important

Thanks for taking the time Jack!
So I did activate stamina mode, restricted performance and even turned on standby mode, only allowing two messaging apps to function when the screen is off, I'll see how it goes!
But so when Sony advertises "amazing battery life", are they implying "on stamina mode / restricting performance"? (I'm not being sarcastic, honest question here)
Because I thought those settings were for those of us who really wanted to go the extra mile, you know?
Anyway I'll just try it this way and I'll keep you updated.
Over the last 9 hours my screen was indeed on 50% of the time and used 70% of my battery. It seems like a lot as it's not on full brightness , it's like at 50%. But maybe the other adjustments will be enough to get good battery life while keeping an enjoyable screen quality!
Thanks again for your help, I really appreciate it !
Have a nice day / evening (depending on where you live )
The battery usually takes a few days & charges before settling down, I have stamina mode on all the time but don't enable most of the other options other than restrict background data. I'm getting over 2 days usage & that is using it a lot & also plenty of gaming. Screen on time before I flashed the latest firmware was over 7 hours, my galaxy s3 usually managed 2-3 SOT before dying.
Yes I think I'll give it a few days before judging the battery performance!
2 days of SOT would be heaven, but I don't feel like mine would last two days with heavy use, no matter the settings...
I guess we'll see, thanks for your input!
I just posted a thread saying how to get amazing battery life in the general section. Have a look

Are others having this? i mean i go through a full battery about twice a day.... I cant figure out what is draining it so bad. i have used WLD, greenify, and bootmanager to try to figure it out..... None of my apps are ever on the battery list, and screen is around 50% usually with android system and android OS always being up the list. I always thought it was my bad signal strength at work but i had two weeks off and my phone NEVER lasted even close to a day.
I have factory reset once but loaded my same apps backup.
I heard someone else mention that the sprint has this weird battery drain that is explainable and was wondering if others see that also.
I am on the search for a 6000+ mah battery i know it will have a replacement back plate but i don't want the whole case thing like the 9000 zero lemon.
Sounds like kernel wakelock
As of the last two days i have also been experiencing much faster battery drain. Have had the phone since launch and never had this problem.
I do not use the device in excess. Very few if any phone calls per day, some texting and gmail, occasional skim of xda, huffpo, phandroid apps and very light Twitter use if bored and not near the computer.
Battery has dipped 5% since writing this post...that's all of 1-2 minutes in use.

That's not normal for a Sprint LG G3. A couple of questions:
Have you looked at the battery stats page to see what app(s) are using the most battery? I'd suggest taking a screen shot of that page and posting it here.
Have you tried rebooting the phone? If there's an app or process running out of control that will often clear it up.
Are you rooted? If so, install better battery stats so we can get a better look at what's eating the battery.
Finally, you might want to take a look at this thread: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...android-system-eating-your-battery-check.html
While it's unlikely you have the same problem I did, the tools and techniques I used to debug it might be useful for you.
Gonna wait for some custom roms to see if the problem just goes away.

Dude the battery app should show you what is causing it. Something has gone rouge!!! I just had my weather app running in the background using GPS for 5 hours, yeah my battery went way down. Freeze some BS apps. I routinely get 30 hrs plus on a single charge. Not the phone itself something you are using is causingi it.
As requested, my craptastic battery info. Brightness was 83.

bought BBS, phone is up stairs charging... imagine that... will post those screens next drain...
What in the WHAT!!! My battery life has been up and down since I've had this phone. I sotpped using the GMAIL email app and am using Type mail for all my accounts. That seemed to help out with a small bit of the battery life, I didn't do any specific tests so it could actually have not changed anything at all. I'm having a very strange issue yesterday and today. I'm at my new office, signal strength is very low, but there's still 4G and a tiny bar of service. Additionally, I have WiFi available to connect to so the data shouldn't be straining to use the cell radio. I have my phone plugged into the wall (it's not the fast charger, just the regular Samsung plug) and the battery IS DRAINING!!! How is this even possible, what is chewing up my battery life? I've also seen the phone slow in it's responsiveness lately? I am considering a soft reset to factory, but I don't do anything really crazy with my phone. I email, facebook, text, and have Nova Prime and a weather widget. What is going on with this thing?

Take a look at your battery status. Post a screen shot when you experienced a bad drain again.
Try not to use wifi at all
Did you install one drive during setup. Check the camera upload setting which is turned on by default. So all ur pics upload to cloud on wifi. See if this setting helps

I looked at it yesterday before I posted...and I should have taken a screenshot...but the top two were Cell Standby @ 14% and Android System @ 13%. I will have the opportunity to grab a screenshot later today. In contrast though, this morning in the last 10 minutes since I've left my house I've gone from 95% to 90% and this reply and an uber was the only thing I've done on it since taking it off the charger.

That's not an option. I have a low data plan, 3GB, because it is SIGNIFIGANTLY cheaper and I live in DC where I have free Wi-Fi almost throughout every inch of the city. Plus when at home I have my phone on my network to take advantage of Wi-Fi and corporate resources.

It wasn't installed during setup, I have AT&T, but during the install after I made sure to disable all those features and verified it was still disabled. All the cloud apps I have disabled any upload features.

I wrote a post over at reddit about this topic:
w w w .reddit.com/r/GalaxyS6/comments/345tt9/galaxy_s6_and_s6_edge_lag_and_battery_improvement/
I can't post it on XDA yet due to the external link limitation since I am new to the forum. Just copy and paste the URL removing spaces in the URL beginning.
I am regularly seeing Lag free performance with five hour screen on time. I started with less than 2 hours SOT and constant lag.
It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
First impressions - battery
With my old Samsung S5, if I wanted to play games at night, I needed to charge it in the end of the working day. With Redmi 5 plus I only charge when I go to sleep and it still has around 45 to 50% of available battery.
Before this I owned a redmi pro phone with 4000mah battery and I have to charge the phone about two to three times a day and with rn 5+ have to charge after one day of haves usage
42,5 hours from battery, 8 hours and 38 minutes screen-on-time

Update on screen on time
I have changed to global ROM (I was using the Chinese with English language) and it seems that the battery drains a little bit faster then before. Still it's enough for a day. At the end I have around 30%.
Not bad
From 90 percent. Miui 9.2.13.0.
Mine only 2 days
Only wifi and some music.
Very nice.
On LTE whole day
In my experience no matter what your android is you need to charge it at the day end. As for mi note 5 with calls, gaming and networking it reaches bottom by day end.
The screen on time is very good!! It minimum last me for 6 hours if I'm use it with very heavy gaming and 9hours I get in maximum SOT with normal use.
Note: I'm a heavy user! Facebook, Instagram, wechat, whatsapp, Twitter, dragon nest m, crusader quest, and etc. More than 80app in my phone.
Awesome and very impressive battery life on the Vince!
Just got my device a day ago. Charged it up to 100% and then updated apps/ OS.
My usage is limited to YouTube, Telegram and some light gaming only as this is my secondary device.
Mostly on WiFi. Using a Jio sim for data.
Not rooted and no battery optimisation done yet.
I guess I am the first user to post SOT on custom ROM.
I really hate MIUI!
I've been using the latest Liquid Remix and I am very pleased!
