Wipe Battery Status

Hello Milestone users!
I am using Moto milestone for some time now and I have a question about battery calibration status. In NORMAL hacked recoveries there was an option "Wipe Battery Status". Of course in Open recover (got recovery and i guess adb recovery too) that option doesn't exist. I wonder if any of wipes available does something like battery status wipe? If so, does restoring nandroid system backup affect somehow battery capacity information? I'm asking because i get miserable battery life on single charge and i'm seeking for a reason (about 14h of well.. light usage...)
Sorry for any grammar/spelling mistakes, English is not my native language. I hope this post i readable

No worries: just open an adb shell and type the following.
mount -a
rm /data/system/batterystats.bin
The battery stats are stored in the mentioned .bin file!

According to my personal experience, whenever you flash a rom which is basically different from the one you are going to remove, it is useful to wipe the battery stats and charge the phone to its full capacity.
This is generally valid for all the android phones.

Thank you, Sir! I was not aware of that script I will try that for sure, but I guess I will still have to visit my carrier and send my milestone on warranty.. Come on... 14 hours? I can't plug it twice a day EVERY day..

Please do the proper test before sending your phone to the assistance.
Consider that the battery life depends on:
- your peculiar usage (do you listen to music or play games?)
- the number of active widgets which connect to the net
- the quality of radio signal of the area where you are
- the temperature...
Consequently, wipe the battery stats, charge the phone to its max capacity and come back here!

OK, if users don't mind I will "extend" this thread and complain about my battery;
In general it looks like this:
-Auto brightness always on
-3G always on
-google sync on
-exchange sync on
-weather sync once for 4 hours
-news sync once for 4 hours
-no data absorbing widgets (only weather bug)
-no games
-no music
Oh, and about signal quality.. I almost always am in good range of 3g/hsdpa network
Now, I don't surf internet alot, but I read news when I go to work and home. Screen is active total 2,5h a day and according to battery use built in android screen absorbs up to 75% of whole battery! (usually 60-66%)
I made some reaserch one day and I wiped whole phone, switched to edge, disabled exchange sync so I used stock settings. No apps, no additional data (only google account) and battery still made only 14h... That made me think, that something is not quite ok.. I had previously htc magic and battery was not an issue that I would consider as important. (I know bigger screen etc, but still...) If you think I am doing something wrong please advise
I will try your tip with battery ststus wipe in a minute and will give report tomorrow or day after
Thank you for your help! I appreciate it!

Don't want to disappoint you, but from the description of your usage 14 hours might be normal. Especially with 2.5h screen being on. Few advices: disable google sync (I assume you use exchange) you will get 10-15% more. Make sure you don't have widgets that update themselves set to update too often, remove the weather widget from screen (just for a day to see what gives), consider installing SetCPU for root users (free for XDA members) and define some profiles like lower CPU frequency while screen is off, or when you reach certain batterly levels (of course if you have root).

I also had a magic and, according to my experience, the Milestone's battery lasts as long as Magic's one, if not a little more.
Switching from HTC to Motorola did not affect my usage abits, and maybe it's the same for you, so I think the differences may be due to the battery itself.
Try changing it!

Are there other ways to wipe the battery status other than using ADB?

Sure: you can manually delete the file "batterystats.bin" stored in /data/system/ using apps like Root Explorer. Before you have to set the filesystem as "read/write".
With the Magic it was also possible using the recovery; maybe the next releases of GOT's O.R. will add this feature.

Well, maybe you're right about usage. Physical qwerty under the 3.7 " screen... It screams for being used for browsing and reading news Good old magic wasn't that attractive.
I've wiped battery stats and if I don't use it a lot (1h screen on) and don't make many phone calls MS is able to make 24h uptime without charging. (Thanks for the tip, I didn't know it's that easy)
I guess I could send it to service just to make sure everything is technically ok, but atm I don't feel like stop using smartphone for over 2 weeks ^^
Thank you for all your help!
Cheers!

Some user at PDAClub.pl who had got a deep look into the matter of low battery life got to conclusion that the exchange sync sucks the juice out of the battery like crazy.
Please refer to thread "Milestone - Bateriowy koszmar" in the Milestone section of PDAClub.pl forum.

I have it off,all the time,but still baterry life sucks.
Unfortunately its something we have to learn to live with...

do you have to fully charge you battery to 100% before deleting the batterystats.bin? Or can you delete it whenever at whatever battery %?

As far as I know, if for any reason battery stats are messed up, you will not be able to charge the phone to 100%. I mean that the phone will display a full charge indication but the battery would not be 100%. Consequently, I'd suggest to wipe the battery stats befeore charging...

Do you guys suggest to Wipe Battery Stats? I never done it on my tab, but would like to hear your thoughts before i jump the gun,
Thanks

Battery Problem Xperia Z !!

Guys I have the c6603 model running 10.3..a.0.423...i live in india but got the phone from australia and its telstra branded. the phone has been running well until a few weeks back i started noticing the battery level going down faster than usual...i am not a heavy app user...and in the battery settings, i have noticed that "android system" is using up almost 70-80% of d battery...the rest like 'screen', android os etc. only 5-10%...this has resulted in the phone lasting hardly a day even on minimal usage. So, could anyone tell me why is the phone acting like this ? what could be the possible reason for the android system using this much battery.
Any help would be appreciated.

Well. What i can suggest I have the same sort of issue. Disabled facebook app et al problem fixed.
Well if you want dig a bit deaper then instal app so called "wakelock detector "-> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.uzumapps.wakelockdetector&hl=en
Hope it will help!:fingers-crossed:

I'm a quite heavy user. I hadn't ever turned stamina mode off since I got the phone. Been using it for a few days with stamina mode off and the battery seems to be way better. When there's a hour or more wherein I won't use the phone I put stamina mode on.

There is a problem with the latest google services framework so that it eats your battery as long as you have location services enabled. So deal with the battery drain or disable location services

Here is your answer! FB is an piece of **** coded app, that is useless on non-rooted phones (Greenify is an must for even using FB app so you can terminate the app after each session).

I had the same problem with battery. I deleted fb with titanium backup and installed friends caster. With location services on and green power premium. I have two days of juce now. No greenify or other apps just green power set to switch off data and WiFi at night and during the day switch it on for 1min every 30 min. Of course when the screen is on I have the data constantly on. No games just websites, music, Tapatalk, Gmail and phone calls plus occasional Facebook browersing using friends caster.

I have just received my phone back from the Sony Repair Centre and seem to be suffering the same issue only more acute. The battery drain is so fast that I can't even charge it unless it is totally switched off, even with the screen off a no apps running it will only charge 8% overnight and with the screen on that 8% will drain in a few minutes.

Newest stock or not?

I'm not sure, it's a C6603, if that helps. I only got the phone originally in about July and it stopped working, wouldn't switch on or respond to any input. They returned it to me working, albeit with the SIM missing, but it had 44% charge, so I put it on charge. It actually seems to be getting worse, I've now switched it off in an effort to get it to charge faster, but having been on charge for several hours it's only up to 56% from 22%, I would guess that's in 7 hours.

Attention!
Guys I just came across this battery issue with samsung s3 users. They have this file "gsiff_daemon" which is giving them battery problems same as ours. the file comes under the name of Android System. Have a look at it and read about it on google. They have a post about it on xda as well.
So I checked if I could locate it in our Z's and maybe rename it or do something, but I wasn't able to locate it even after using ES File explorer. Maybe it is present under some other name and is probably the reason our "Android System" is using up 70-80% of the battery life.
I request some advanced users here to look into the problem and see if they can help us.

Background process limit
Hi all,
Trying this (Background process limit), i think will work, because now i see a lot of more processes in background than in previous releases ( wasting our batery and internet conection..)
I had the same issue in upgrade in a previous release and i solved activating the limitation of background process .
I am trying this solution now
To limitated, go into developer options
Then the 2 option beggining by the end , Background process limit.
I have put 2 process at most

okey ill give it a try & tell u if it works or not have a gud day

Please don't mess with the background process limit. It will have a negative effect on your phone's multitasking and will not increase battery life at all. In fact, it may decrease battery life because cached processes will be regularly removed from RAM and have to reload themselves.
The option is in the developer options for a reason. You shouldn't be touching anything in there if you don't understand what it is.
It's sad to see uninformed nonsense like that posted here when this is supposed to be a place for people to learn how their phone works. ?

its not about the software (as many forums try to imply): I went to a lab to replace the battery and now the phone works like expected. runs a full day. not few hours.

[Q] Battery problem

Hi,
I have been using Z1 for few months, this is the first time I got this problem
I have Du Battery Saver Apps, Last night before I slept, I set the mode to" Sleep mode" which means mobile data and wifi were off, and the battery was 71%
Usually I will not lose even 1% of battery when i wake up. but now the battery has reduced to 17% in just one night!
These are the screenshots of my Battery usage and Wakelock apps
You can see the graph that the battery was drasticly dropped
Can you help me with the problem...

Use Battery Guru Snapdragon, is specific for the hardware. BTW, is not a problem with the battery it self but this happen on every Android, sometime they stuck somewhere and drain battery. Next time wher you will reboot or charge to full the problem will disappear. Which firmware are you using? .290 was very well improved in battery efficient.

Has downloaded and now in learning mode,
Also thanks for the answer but I am using .136.

Battery Guru will not make any difference here. Your Media Server and the system usage are higher than screen usage, quite impossible...
Except, your media server ran in panic witch is a known bug. One of your media files (pictures, sounds, videos) is 0kb and causes the media server to loop over and over... Move your media to your PC, reboot your device and push the files back avoiding the 0kb files...
This is how a normal Screen to Media Server / System ratio should look like, consuming like nothing

My friend, do not even try to teach someone here what to do or not, give only explainable reasons if for you, someone is right or not on specific topic, understood?

Worse battery life since the Oreo update

Since the update, I have definitely experienced worse battery life, especially overnight on standby/idle and also overall when I'm at home on WiFi in general, I have read a few posts about the November security patch causing worse battery on a lot of different phones so I don't know if it is because of that, I just hope either the December patch sorts it, or HMD make the battery optimisation better in the next update patch from them soon, has anyone else noticed worse battery performance since Oreo?

Doesn't seem any different to me ill be honest.

For me it even seems to be a little bit better than on Nougat.

I have stellar battery life all together but standby could be better. The other night I lost 3-4% over night and that is more than the usual 1-2% I'm used to on my phones. Not something to get upset about really but something I've noticed.

No battery drain here, my opinion seems the same good as on nougat to

Me too. I have a little better battery performance since Oreo.
Although I'm a battery drain. I only have 18 apps allowed to work in background. I have enabled "Clean background activities" in battery menu too.

Same here, I have most of my apps disabled apart from things that actually need to be running like PingID for work authentication / MS Authenticator / emails and 4 or 5 other things.

Try "data saver" if you have that option in your OREO ROM
Yes I did say DATA saver
Go to Settings - type "data saver" in the search box - switch it on
Works magic for me with a standard OREO ROM and nothing else.

since 8.1 update, battery draining has been worse

Insanely decreased battery life

Is there any battery life issue that anyone may have encountered ever since the previous two updates.. my 6000mah battery that used to stay for 2 days minimum has gone to a single day. It's all been after the update and i saw plenty of forums in Asus itself of the same thing.
Reference :- https://zentalk.asus.com/en/discussion/54786/battery-drain-issue-on-rog-3
Anyone got any leads for this?

You're just overthinking. Stop staring at the battery percentage 24/7 and enjoy the damn phone.

You damn right! But how, bro. When u were accustomed to charging ur phone once in two days and you have to subtract 24 hours from that.. it surw changes the usage from a gaming plus daily driver to either one of the lot .. change for the bad questions a lot of stuff

What is your battery usage? Have you tried a factory reset?

What is showing as consuming most power? An optimized debloated ROG 3 with a healthy can go a week on stand-by with data enabled and even longer (no kidding) and easily 2-2.5 days with normal use.
You have to pinpoint what is doing it. It's wearing down your battery as well...

I tried, actually. The thing is i fear the Android system itself. Coz in one of the threads on the Asus website forums, there were people discussing Play Store or Play activities that keep auto restarting and also twin apps.
So for starters i did try to force close play services (can't disable coz of the emails), then battery turned out great. But afterwards it started reducing again. Same with twin apps.
I ain't kidding too. It's supposed to a 2-2.5day phone easily with the 6000mah battery, but for me it's a single day max to max a 12+ (3-4) hour phone

You can also try to use the Naptime app, it forces the phone into Doze when screen is off. Adb access or root is needed
GSAM can also be used to find the culprit

If disabling Goog Play Services stops the issue, it's likely linked to one or more running apps or processes. It's likely not Play Services itself but because one or more other components are making calls to it. Try to review all the running apps & services on your device and selectively disable them and gauge the difference. Apps that do a lot of syncing, using location services, excessive notifications (cloud messaging), Firebase indexing, etc etc.... If you have a good app manager tool, that will make the hunt easier.
