Battery life in offline mode

hello, as anyone tryed how is the battery life on a full charge - on airplane mode?
can we get near a week of usage watch/chrono etc?
thank you

Bluetooth consumes but a fraction of the neergy the watch needs - most of it is needed for display, memory, processor... I don't think you'll see a much improved life in offline mode - maybe just because you won't be getting notifications, but that would still save just a small amount of energy the watch usually needs.

I tested at night with screen Off and airplane mode. It drain 9% in 8hours.

And that is about the same drop I have leaving the watch overnight: connected just the "Always On" on off. As Zvieratko says, very little impact, only the screen is relevant to fast or slow battery consumption.

The battery life sounds disappointing on the LG G Watch R. I really like the watch and want to get it but I want to be able to stretch the battery life to a week so I only need to recharge it once a week.
Right now I'm using Samsung Gear Fit in offline mode, Display Activation on manual, monitoring my steps, only connecting via BT to my Note 4 before bed each night to sync. With its puny 210mAh (vs Watch R's 410mAh) I am able to make it last 7-8days. With BT on all the time, maybe 4 days.

In airplane mode with the display off I get about 1% usage every hour, so I guess it will last about 4 days on a single charge, however I see no point in this mode. I want to be able to look at it at any time so display is always on, and I want to see my notifications, so it's never in airplane mode. It lasts between 1.5 and 2 days like this.
Since I take it off before I go bed anyway I don't see a problem. The charging cradle is nice, it's not like I need to plug a lead into it. Now that would annoy me.
Of course it could be a problem if you are camping - sorry, can't tell you the time, my watch only lasts a day on a full charge.

But now we have a lot of USB (tiny) power bank we can charge several time your watch, so you can have it on your bag

Or considering my watch only has a 400mA battery, it could quite possibly recharge of a solar cell stuck to my back pack

Battery Drains faster when in Airplane Mode.

Hi guys
So for some reason on my rooted Samsung Galaxy the battery drains quicker when listening to music in Airplane on than with a cellular and data connection :/ any ideas why? Background processes running and trying to access the internet or something?
Any advice would be great. This is really irritating as from 7 AM to Noon only listening to music my Battery life goes from 100% to 50-60%. :banghead: Thanks all!

My first guess would be that your music player is trying to use network services to get more stuff, and the phone is searching for the connection that is unavailable due to airplane mode.

Have you looked at the battery consumption to see what it's reporting as the power draw?
Settings -> System -> Battery
For example, mine shows Rocket Player #1 at 25% and Android OS as #2 at 15%, but that's after listening to music over bluetooth off and on from 7am to 2pm. Currently with 78% charge remaining.
Then click on the graph and you can see the battery 'curve' and the small dot graphs below showing Mobile network signal/location on/awake/screen on/charging.
In your case I'd be real interested in those graphs - see if there's anything forcing wifi/location/mobile network on when they should not be, also see how much 'on' time there is.
If that doesn't help you may need a more intrusive inspector like GSam or BetterBatteryStats or Wakelock Detector.

Go into Wi-Fi settings, 3 dots up top, advanced, turn off always allow scanning. That may be some sort of wake lock also.

Battery life not quite good

Hi everyone,
I have this little phone for about 2 weeks and I've never ever reached a good and consistent on screen time. I've always had about 2-3 hours, although this phone could manage 5-6 hours on screen time!
This is my situation right now (I have 43% battery left)

Is that normal??

If you disable RCSservice you will get at least 20% of your battery back, with no side effects.
RCSservice was invented by google as an alternative messaging protocol, to be added to mms messaging. But it never really took off and from what I can gather, some service providers don't support it, at which point RCS seems to go into some sort of error state, eating battery.
I put some instructions together on how to remove it and reclaim some battery.

Disable wifi scanning under location settings.
'Keep wifi on during sleep' should be set to 'only when plugged in' (under wifi prefrences\advanced)
Try installing Greenify to slow down the wakelocks.
Better Battery Stats can be installed on a non-rooted phone with some ADB commands. This will tell you everything you need to know, what's waking the phone, what's using the network, whats' waking with alarms etc etc. As well as having a helpful thread to talk about what you find.
Using 5Ghz wifi uses a lot of juice, if possible sepearte 2.5Ghz & 5Ghz bands on your home wifi and use the 2.5Ghz. The speed difference is negligable.
Disable sync under account settings . This will save you heaps of battery, but then you're going to have to open Gmail and press refresh to find out if you have mail. Most other stuff works ok with it turned off whatsapp/twitter/snapchat/et all

Here a similar issue with the XZ1 compact. Think battery life is quite disappointing to be honest, felt it was better once upon a time.

My XZ1C battery life is quite good

P) high battery drain

hello everyone, here is my problem - in last couple of week i'm having really big battery problems (to the point i'm thinking of smashing my phone to the ground ) I take my P9 of the charger and it says it is at 100%, after only few min it drops to about 90%, and when i open some app (facebook atc) it freezes and when i try to turn it on again it says 0% battery!! when i hook it up on charger it takes 20 mins to charge to 1%, and when i turn it on again it says anywhere between 40% and 100%!!! Freezing most commonly appears when i turn on my camera and take a picture, it snaps then freezes. Tried with the factory reset it didn't help.
Please anybody!!!

Most likely the battery has worn out. Is it still under warranty?

Same here, sometimes camera apps freeze and then i will reboot it. After reboot, phone shows 5% power and then force itself into shutdown. The battery actually may not empty as told by phone, when i start charging, it shows more than 5% and phone actually have juice to run longer.

Sounds like a battery replacement to me. Have to tried installing AccuBattery or anything similar to check the battery health?

It's not the battery causing this fault

I have replaced the battery in my P9 and it still gets a power drain when the camera is operated. This usually occurs in low light environments. If I immediately turn the phone back on it starts up with maybe 20% battery, which then drops 1% a second and gets hot. This is with a brand new battery fitted. I conclude there is a glitch with updated software. Hopefully Huawei will read these posts and correct with future updates.

Not the battery
Try removing your sd memory card. I think a malfunctioning sd card was causing issue of battery drain during camera use. I can't explain the full science behind this, but my p9 phone has been fine since I removed the sd

Question Phone Getting hot when play a while ( no game)

I have phone for two day everything is ok except battery draining fast and phone getting hot when I watch some YouTube or just check something on the website or chatting with friends.
Anyone have same issue?! I have china version one.

Mine does not heat up. I occasionally play cod for maybe 1hr with no issues.
Certainly no heating up under normal use.
Battery - it will take a week to learn your usage and bed in.
I'm on 2 weeks in. 7.5 hrs sot over a 14hr work day. Exactly what I think a 4500mah 888 device should do.

I have my phone for 4 days now.
Heating up and battery drain...im just using email + messenger + facebook + Line + Whatsapp. Few calls during the day on Skype...
During night time battery goes down 1% per 1hr = so approximately 8%

Sounds appy. Something running all the time?
Over a normal 12hr work day what sot etc do you get? This is an easy 7.5hr sot over a full day device.
I get that with everything on full except brightness usually at 50pc inside .
Can't comment on dropping overnight, mine sits on the wireless charger.

Yes...almost all applications on this phone. Even they are disabled from background if I open battery usage details I have for example netflix or YT running for 18hrs in the background and for example 20-30min in the foreground.
