battery life - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Hey guys!
How is all your battery life?
Mine is currently going pretty bad..
My phone is like 11 months old now and my battery life has gone from 48+ hours to like 13 max now..
I dont use my phone that much but the battery has become terrible if I think about how it was!
Is there any warranty on batteries?

I'm also on the same boat, since the last update. I don't know if it has something to do with it. Let's wait for emui 9.1 it appears to be very good on the mate 20 pro in terms of battery.

You can replace your battery for free if you warranty

Update..
I don't know what the problem is. I deleted Facebook and Chrome because Facebook drains pretty hard but that's not the problem I guess..

How about a factory reset?

Mine suddenly did this yesterday. C432 on . 286 usual day, whole day at base at work too so not even used any GPS and at 18% by time I was home...... Usually 40%+ ran calibrator see if it helps as has done before. Shall report back

Not too shabby here.

Getting the usual 36+ hours on .286 C432...

Mines back to normal. 40+% after a quiet day at work. Must have just been an odd day

You have to consider outside temperatures aswell. It is summer in the end, if you spent time outside a lot than it is normal for battery to drain faster since it is so hot outside.

Nah dude, that is not what I did...
You will never get pure black like me that way

There's an article on xda about dark gray vs pure black interface. The gains are negligible.

My P20 Pro's battery varies from day to day mainly depending if i'm on Wifi or not.
Do you guys leave all your apps open or close them when you are done?
Only reason I ask is Twitter and Snapchat seem to constantly run in the background if I leave them open.

Many apps stay open in the background, the most obvious being the social media and messenger apps. No backgrond=no notifications.
Haven't bothered to clean memory since I've had phones with more than 1gb of ram. The P20 Pro, in particular also has a big battery and almost always lasts me a day, so no worries. Charges really fast too

Battery Life After Update to 4.4.4 (At&t)

I accidentally updated my phone to 4.4.4 about 2 weeks ago(didn't want to update b/c i do not like the new dialer). For the first week i didn't notice any difference in the phone. The past week though my phone's been dying very quick compared to normal the two biggest users are the screen and voice calls as usual so I am not sure what this is due to. I would like to figure this out though as it is beginning to become a problem.
Need as many screen shots as you can post to help.
If you're rooted, then we can see wakelocks too.
Try Gsam, it says miles more than the stock battery usage screens. Go from 100 percent to about 10 and take the screen shots. No reboots during, or Gsam will reset.
If you aren't rooted... Will be a little harder.
If you want to maximize your battery, see the first 4 posts in the Battery thread in my signature. It's for the N5...but it all applies to the Moto as well. ?

So I am down to 88% on 8 minutes of screen time. Been off the charger for 3h47m

Nothing in your screenshots seem out of place.
What are you doing in those 8 minutes? And what screen brightness?
I'm thinking it's your usage, that's all.
Without seeing wakelocks, it's hard to find issues. According to your graph though, your phone seems to sleep well.
Is location on? Google now? Are you using the options in Android device manager? Is location reporting on? Those are all battery eaters.
If you play a game for 8 minutes, with the screen bright, or even leaving it on auto brightness in a well lit spot... Would be completely normal to use 12 percent.
---------- Post added at 07:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:29 PM ----------
For the screen to use 49 percent of your battery in 13 hours, with only 2 hours screen time, tells me it's running very bright.
Keeping it dimmer, and adjusting manually would probably cut the drain down a lot.
I use "display brightness" from the play store. Very customizable and you get a slider always on your screen.
In that time is just text messages and yes the screen brightness is auto. But like I said this is draining it nor then it has in the past. I don't use Google now, or location services.

Please try Gsam... Even without root. Go from 100 to about 10 and post screens from it. Including kernel wakelocks and the "screen" screen. ?
Just texting, that's a lot of drain. Especially if you have those things off completely. Location especially. Is it off, or you just aren't using it to your knowledge?

Location services can be linked to all sorts of battery issues. The first step is turning it right off to see if the problems stop. Then go from there. ?
My European Moto X also drains within 10 hours of moderate use. Also for me, the screen uses about 40% of the battery while I have almost no screen on time. could this be the Active Display feature that is draining the phone?
my phone is bricked ... anyone have AT&T 4.4.4 ?

[Q] Someone help me with my battery life

I have tried everything. Stock, Franco and Lean Kernel, UVing by 25 as well as 50mhz, have greenified everything I can that I don't need. But I just can't seem to get more than 2 hours of SOT out of this phone.
i'm not really the kind of person prepared to shut everything(bluetooth, data, location etc) off to save battery. I bought a smartphone so I want it to be smart.
Some screenshots: first two are on leankernel, the last one is from an attempt today with franco right after I finished charging it up(phone barely held a day)

turn off adaptive brightness, and lower your brightness to 20% or lower. i keep mine at about 15%, and see about 5.5h sot. for every 20% i raise my brightness, i get 1h sot less.

That's why google did a bad job to deliver apps with a light material design on devices with an amoled screen.
Good apps does not have grey fonts on a white background. Or have options to change those colors.

5.5 hours of actual screen-on-time isn't horrible. I usually get around 4h but I don't care about stuff like turning down brightness or disabling bluetooth. My N6 easily lasts through the whole day - sometimes 1.5 days (with only light use, though). And if the battery (for whatever reason) gets close to zero Moto provided us with a gift called turbo charger...
It looks to me like you have pretty bad signal with the 69% with no signal. Your phone will keep searching for a network which is going to destroy your battery. Since you have WiFi constantly connected try turning of mobile data and see if that helps.

no. 5.5 hours of screen on time is normally considered very good.
Don't you guys swap in the Team Blackout inverted apps? It adds about 30-40% more screen on time on AMOLED screens. It won't help in areas like settings etc if you are stock based but they have all of the Google apps, Spotify, Netflix, etc inverted and transparent. It always gave me great screen on time on my AMOLED devices. When people asked about my numbers, that was my first suggestion.

i use layers, which is a new light weight open source theme engine. no cm involved! it was started by sony, then some devs here with a n6, took over. i use the pich black or out space layers. pich black themes the rom black, and also themes the gapps black, as well as the google launcher

B370 First Impressions

I have only been using it around 12 hours but it seems a lot snappier than stock MM and a hell of a lot better than the last round of beta's.
Memory management seems vastly improved.
Few little things are annoying me like sharp noises when making a call, black notification drawer.
Also my banking app (Barclays) doesn't work.
However so far there aren't any problems that will stop me from using this as a daily driver.
I can't comment on battery life yet as I only took my phone off charge a few hours ago.
What does everyone else think?
I think that's worth waiting I'm working on B336 since January (beta project) and I'm happy with battery, maybe performance could be a bit better. But if B370 is as good as you say, than all grand.
I guess there ia no app drawer and private space?

Sent from my HUAWEI VNS-L31 using Tapatalk
Private space and app twin are not there, same as USB OTG. Apart from that, it's working great,stable, fast, smooth, it's prettier than MM. I feel that battery life is worse than on MM - for now I get something like hour less screen on time than on MM (5 and a half vs 6 and a half hours). But, it's too early to tell - I found out only today that WiFi scanning was turned on, although I have turned it of while on MM. Also, seems like RAM management is even more aggressive on Nougat, and that's a bad thing for multitasking. There's additional bloat - Avast antivirus is included. I don't need f_cking antivirus on my phone.
Phone i much faster and fluid , remote app for telefunken tv does not work , cannot find tv , and no one app for locking the screen works , it locks the screen but when you try to unlock from fingerprint , asks for pin , otherwise everything is fast , great and beautiful....
I decided to update to B370..for now everything is smooth,but... One thing from MM is still here.
.Autofocus when rec video whit stock camera not working... Everythime I need to tap on screen to get focus..Huawei have to fix this.

Screen on time is not the problem. Standby Drain is the problem. If u dont use it much and leave it idle it drains without any reason.

No drain here in standby at B370. Everything working well. For example, going to sleep with 60%, after 8 hrs geting up with 58% left. Bluetooth works fine, Camera and Video focus working. No crashes or reboots. I dont know why a lot oft people having these Problems. Before i upgrade from MM, i maked sure that enough free space (5 GB) is available. After Upgrade i did a full Factory Reset.

This seems to be a common problem with the p10 and p10 plus. If you think about it older phones that didn't have doze mode didn't behave like this. Well, in my experience anyway.

Yes it can be but wait a custom rom can help or a Huawei update it.
Its not a problem with phone.
It's software problem. Ok
I've had this phone for around 2 weeks and only managed to get 6 hours sot max (mix Wifi Lte, wifi only, Lte only)
Suddenly today got updated via OTA to b124 and...
88 percent remaining with 1.30 hrs sot is crazy efficient. Admittedly this is 100% on WiFi, but before b124 100% Wifi only getting me 6+ hours sot.
Will try mix Wifi Lte tomorrow and see the difference.

No.
Your baby is single sim and p10-plus dual sim dual hardware and simple is single system using battery ? low power and the dual system is used battery ? more power consuming ok.
And your phone software is perfect and the P10/plus software needs to be more work to Huawei. Ok
And finally you said it's baby. Ok
But i think p10 plus is not a baby it's a father. Ok
So need more work to be done.

My P10 plus has not this bug
Mate 9 had disappointing battery life considering the size of it when it first released as well. After a couple of software updates it's doing great. Suspect this one will be the same. Hope so as I've just ordered a p10 plus to replace it.

I just got this phone yesterday and am half way through my day starting from a full charge. So far seems in line with what I'd expect from a 3750mah battery. Will probably chuck up some screens in a couple of days once it's been broken in a bit.

Jesus man m.kk just don't **** with us. Why do you open up a thread when all you do is telling us fake ****?!?
It's just not possible to get 7.5 hours sot with normal usage.
The percentage of ur used apps tells me that u just switched ur display off time to 10 minutes and just didn't do anything with your phone.
Some whatsapps every now and then but that's it.
U just left ur display on until the bat was flat.
No one can get that sot with normal usage like some calls, internet, WhatsApp , music and some apps.
Not with the p10 plus hardware
r u so bored in ur life ??
Tomorrow I follow up with some screenshots and details.

Yah well if he really is getting that then he needs to get a life and do other things apart from playing with his phone all day. P10 plus battery is ok, not amazing, but good enough to get most people through a day.
The Mate 9 is the one to get if 6-7 hours sot is important.

Does This Battery Life Look Bad?

So, I recently downloaded Android Oreo.
I did a factory reset and took screenshots of my battery activity today. I only had 2.5 hours of screen time (I keep my brightness at about 15% - 20%) and I barely used my phone while in my office.
I would like to keep Android System from running in the background, but when I turn it off, I find it back on following a phone restart...?
I have also found that none of my cache cleaners work anymore. Why is that?
Does this battery life look bad? I used to get better battery life.
2.5 hours with 50% left. Seems average.
I agree, about average. I haven't ran Oreo much, not more than a couple of days at a time & I don't have any screenshots but for me Oreo is worse in performance. Well statistically, with real world use I can't tell much of a difference.
So far I still like Nougat. I know I'm stating the obvious but everyone's usage & SOT will be different so some may say your stats are good, others may say not so good.
This is a typical weekday for me on Nougat. But I'm running a custom kernel & custom rom, no bloat & not a huge amount of apps installed. Display brightness 40% on average, display always set to max res. I First pair is today.
Now you got me curious, I should go back to Oreo & test. EDIT: Ok, I'm going back to Oreo right after this edit. I'll see how it does tomorrow.
Since Oreo update, I chose my word specifically , instead of upgrade. It appears standby idle battery is slightly improved.

Don't play games nor do I watch videos on a 6.3" screen. Guess I'm the minority.
Either way here's a screenshot of my Note 8 on Nougat with ****ebook app , didn't change much.

Deleted. Was attempting to attach a screenshot of my battery usage with nougat and FB app. Still showed 8 plus hours SOT.

So here's a typical weekday stat for me from today on Oreo. Took a hit in battery performance. But that's only 1 day of testing so not a fair comparison to my Nougat stat. Although I'm not a benchmark freak, benchmark results are pretty much the same if I use the appropiate kernel versions from the same dev.
Still not a fan of O although there are a few cool features, going back to N until all the compatibilites get worked out (getting closer though).
For me battery has gotten way worse. My phone goes from full to 90% in half hour of really light use

People will usually say, so I'll say it before, a clean install with a major change like N to O is usually recommended and I agree as most of the time it can take care of issues like this. But a clean install did not make a difference for me. Glad to know I'm not the only one experiencing this.

I did a clean install as well. It didn't help. Hopefully it will get better over time

Hopefully it'll be ironed out for the Note 9

Are the auto cache cleaning apps the culprit of bad battery drain/battery life?

Ah, that don't do me any good, I'm not the type to upgrade every year, not much of an upgrade anyway or worth it IMO. I'll wait for the Note 10, I think very good things will come for number 10. Hopefully a new custom kernel will fix it but until then, back to Nougat for me.
It seems to me since upgrading to O. My battery life seems poor. Dont know what they changed. O performs better on the pixel 2. Maybe I'm missing something. Who really knows.

Don't have issues with batt life. But I'm seriously considering reverting back to nougat on my TMO device. Just need to research the process properly before doing it.

Wow! I was eagerly expecting the oreo OTA, I even put a thread about oreo OTA experiences/opinions, but its a huge mixed bag, some say oreo improves fluency, other that have screen tint, batt drain, that no significant apparent changes, others that is snappier, etc, I have not rooted or pushed oreo firms, as I want to be very careful, because my 950F performs really very, very good, I am at a loss as of what to do when the OTA pops in my device, I am even considering to block it via bk
