Daytime Android System battery drain, nighttime OK - BetterBatteryStats

I have the following issue - even when I am using the phone moderately (around 1 hour SOT) throughout the day, my battery drops from 100% to 30% in less than 12 hours. The only thing for sure is that no user apps are draining the battery but the drain comes from Android System. Android stats show that for this period 1h20m SOT has eaten 10% battery while at the same time Android System has eaten 31%!
Installed BetterBatteryStats to discover the following figures for 10 hours use throughout the day: 6h Deep Sleep, more than 1h Screen On and more than 2 hours Awake (Screen Off). So the question is what the heck has been happening during those 2 Awake hours when the phone has been in my pocket? I am attaching some stats for your reference.
PS At night time, when I leave the phone 100% charged with AOD on, the next morning it has 90% charge (I think that normally AOD eats around 1% per hour).

SEIDIO extended battery, superd battery issues?

this is my 3rd full charge on a 2600mah seidio extended battery
with WIFI on and running 100% it lasted around 12 hours
with wifi off and running 49% (i guess all the gmail syncs), 98% on standby, didnt do nothing with it
it is at 2% now and has the uptime of 16:20...itll probably last another hour or so
i have super d 1.11 ram hack with swap on, apps2sd
i read on the battery reviews that their phones would last 24 hours easy with full use..
ive been leaving it 98% on standby with occassional checking on the battery and its surviving for a fraction of that, blue tooth off, brightness down, wifi off, gps off, on edge..
it will die within the next hour or so
cell standby: 49%
phone idle 46%
display 3%
android system 2%
16 hours and 20 minutes, with 2% left
is something wrong or what, i expected this battery to last at least 2 days when its on standby / idle over 90%
whats going on? is it the ram hack or the swap
the phone DOES shut off after an hour or two after it hits 2%, it does not keep running, so i cant see it being a calibration issue
but i expected from the reviews that it would last 2-3 days on standby at least
any opinions? or is what im seeing normal

You know its all about that batt!

Got a z3c a week back (precisely), and just want an opinion if my battery life seems good as per the general reputation of the phones battery life around here.... responses would be appreciated
my power management shows i have estimated battery time of 13 hours (1 day 7 hrs on standby) at 20% battery remaining. My battery usage has been 2d,4h,35 mins with screen at 28%, cell standby at 19% and 14%, calls at 12% android os and system at 7% and 6% respectively, and wifi n fb at 4% and 2%. I mostly use my phone for mails, fb, whatsapp and surfing, and random time checking once in a while on the phone. I barely have any kind of apps on it, except the default sony bloatware, fb, whatsapp and two odd more.. mobile data is on about 80% of the time whereas my overnight drain of 2% is without any data or wifi active. Location is always off, and wifi is on merely about 5-10% of the time.
TIA!

I'd say it's actually more about using the "Search" function.
Guess we already have a dozen threads about this topic.

Normal Battery drain or defective Turbo?

So I've had my phone a little over a month now and i never got amazing battery life, but compared to other phones it was solid. However, i see people with 6-7 hours of screen on time, when i struggle to squeeze 4 out of my phone. Typically i get down to about 10% with 17 hours total and 3.5 hours of screen on time. Also my phone usually turns off at 5-10% randomly, is this normal? Lastly, every so often if i let the battery run down until it turns off (8% or so) i get a screen that shows the battery sign with an exclamation mark on the inside. Is my phone defective or are peoples battery stats a matter of difference in usage.
SOT heavily depends on use and screen brightness.
I always get 6-7, auto brightness, no gaming.
Yes but I'm saying i get a max of 4 hours SOT with absolutely no gaming. All i do is text and use normal stuff like twitter and instagram.
My device at the same, up to 5 SOT
Do you think battery problems on this device?
Edit: 8-10 hours standby -> %10 battery drain...
Location - Battery saving(always)
Brightness - Auto(always)
Wifi - off(idle off- Scanning always available <-OFF)
Network - 2G(idle)
Bloatware - all disabled
Moto Apps - Only Moto Display -ON-
Facebook / Twitter - I don't use!
I typically see 1% battery drain for every hour in stand by and 10% for every hour of screen on time. After 24 hours with 2 hrs SOT, I'll be around 55%. I don't use WiFi or GPS very often.

Just wait for Lollipop update and the excessive battery drain will be gone. With KitKat I had around 10% or more battery drain overnight, but now I'm having at most 1%-2% with the same synced settings, so it was a huge improve, believe me.
Besides this, try to disable Moto Actions (except camera wrist), keep those sensors awake all the time drain a lot of battery. The exclamation sign inside the battery should be present in around 5% battery left.
Also, as far as I know, Turbo will be updated directly to 5.1, so it would be better, but hope that Verizon crap-ware doesn’t ruin the update.

Standby drain

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 Google Pixel 2's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Stand by amazing like international s2 amazing when the phone locks and goes to sleep even with all the listening it's doing this thing is solid ur at 5 percent and u lock ur phone u can guarantee that it won't move for a few hours
Went to be with 93% woke up 7 hours later with 93%.
Night 1, went from 55% to 47% in 8 hours. Hoping this is an anomaly and it gets better tonight. It's not terrible, but not great either, and not consistent with other reports I've heard.
Mine is average 7-10% overnight drain. Have had the phone for 3 nights. Will continue monitoring

Nope, everything enabled.
I noticed when my phone was not fully charged , around 94 percent , I lost 8 percent overnight . Gonna do a full charge tonight and see if another drain happens
From 11pm to 7am overnight the battery dropped from 90% to 80%
I tried with and without ambient for my standby average.
Without ambient it took 4% for 8 hours
With ambient it took 5% for 8 hours

I am a very light phone user, I went to bed at 100%, woke up at 100% , just now reached 90%!
I'm averaging a little over 1% / hour drain overnight. Looking at GSAM battery monitor, there's a small spike in battery usage at regular intervals. This even happened in safe mode.
So in other words, it doesn't hold charge during standby any better than other phones in this segment. My Honor 8 will only drop 3-5% overnight and it has numerous accounts set to auto-sync.

I tried Greenify and drain went down to about 0.4% / hour overnight. I'm not sure if the difference is Greenify or turning off Always on Display.
See my Screenshots below. That's what I am expecting from a standby behavior. When I'm done using my phone, there is almost no drain over a long period of time (like over night or during work).
How did i achieved this? I've disabled for certain apps the background app refresh, like on the battery consuming app Facebook - app keeps updating your timeline. ...or Whatsapp - app keeps downloading photos and text messages in the background...
All other pixel related features like always on display or playing now are still enabled. Expect OK Google, I prefer the active Edge activation.
I have also the newest official Software update installed with display color fix, (working) NFC buzz fix and November security patch. Build OPD1.170816.025
Always plug in over night, but in morning when I unplug, minor use for 3-4 hours still says 100%. NEVER got this good on my Pixel 1 or Nexus 6p. I have several push email accounts and background news, but ZERO social media apps loaded.

Same here and i was worry about the small battery in this phine but it seems it's better than what i expected.
100% at 11pm Las night woke up at 7:30am so 8 and a half hours later at 100%. Didn't even know that was possible. (No always on display of course)
Bug in battery usage stats
Just noticed an hour and a half after I unplugged my phone that the phone showed "13 min since last full charge" and the phone showed "100% battery life", thought it didn't make sense as already had about 20+ minutes of screen on time and was using Bluetooth. I restarted my phone and found the battery was at 98% then within a few minutes drained to 95%, but when I restarted it the battery stats showed "last full charge 0 minutes ago".
I'd guess if your batter is showing 100% after a few hours of use, the battery is miscalibrated rather than having super low drain.

Battery Issues

Hi All
I bought Nokia 7 Plus yesterday and set it up, but the battery drain so fast. I left my phone to sleep with wifi on throughout my sleep it drains 10% with just pushing notifications from FB, like everytime I will get FB Notifications and not open it it will drain 1% of the battery.
Remove fb and see magic
U just answered to your question. It's not the phone, it's just crappy facebook app.
Facebook Lite is the way to go if you need FB, I think - normal version eats battery a lot, and I'm not sure if that will be fixed at all - seems like they don't care.
If you have to use Facebook, use Facebook lite or alternative apps like Friendly.
Hi, I got Nokia 7 Plus yesterday and started using it today. Initially with the battery percentage came with package, battery draining was slow. After doing first charging from 21% to 100%, battery is draining too fast. It is common for some batteries and takes some charging cycles to get battery optimized. If battery draining is happening too fast even after 3 to 5 charging cycles then there would be some fault with battery.

I got my phone day before yesterday & its now running Android 8.1 with the May security patch. Since the time of use, I've charged my phone only twice & both times charged it up to 100%. I feel the batter is draining. Please have a look at the screenshots and let me know if the battery consumption is fine or its draining fast. The battery dropped by 1% in 4 mins of the phone being idle with the display closed. Also the stock camera app is consuming a lot of battery.
I can confirm a very hard drain, too. No way to reach 7-10 hours of usage.
i'm getting about 5-5.5 hours of sot with moderate usage... Checked the app usage..where it shows PUBG used 12% battery in 38 min, 45 min of youtube drain 8% 26min Instagram drain 5%...I don't use fb much on phone when needed i mainly use fb lite... .i don't use auto brightness. so my brightness level is always 45%.. in overnight( well it's like 5-6 hours) battery percentage dropped 4%.. Wifi is always on and GPS is always on high accuracy.. in power saver 19 apps are allowed for background activity...
Battery drain
I just purchased my phone yesterday and used it for some time. I put it on charging at around 20% and didn't use it until full charge. After it got completely charged and then I just used it for few mins it went down 100% to 95% very fast; later after few mins I started suffering net and did misc stuff for about an hour it went down to 85%. Next morning I saw the battery % was 81%. Is this normal? I mean how can it last for 2 day as the company claimed. Aslo I am android 8.1.0

This has been a comman issue with Nokia 7 plus, including me. My battery had high discharge rates in both Oreo and Pie. However, post March security update, I am seeing some good battery life. I would also suggest to update to Pie and update Device Health from Play Store. Hope it works out for you.
try letting the battery drain to 0% then charging it to 100
TA1062 with build 00WW_3_51F here.
Before the march update, the phone could last for almost 2 days with moderate usage.
After the march update, I barely have 5 hours of standby time, and like 2 hour of usage time. This is crazy ! Not heating, but also randomly shuts down while it says like 65% remaining battery. I haven't changed anything else !!!
Does anyone have any idea how to improve this ?
