Wondering if there is something that reflects the rate of your batters capacity that your consuming at any one moment.
Thanks
The app you are looking for is called Juice Plotter and is available in the Market.

Im using froyostone v2 and at this moment battery drains only 1% for over one and half-hour (from 44% to 43%) on standy.its impossible though . but then i just noticed the batt temp is 25c because my hd2 a bit cold because of air conditioner.
in regards of one gadget that shut itself down when overheating.
do you think batt juice going friendly when its cold?
this is the section that you need to post in

it is possible that your phone drains only 1% battery in one and half hour. If you want to monitor the current(for better understanding on how your battery is draining) try current widget from the market and enable logging to the file. My phone loses about 8-10% battery in standby when kept overnight. That's about 1% per hour.
And to answer your question I don't think keeping the battery cold would help with the battery performance. if the battery is hot it sure hurts the performance but I don't believe its true the other way. Its just my experience...don't have any technical proof for this belief!
yes im using 'currentwidget' and it drains 7mA. battery meter using 'battstat'.
just now i've installed 'batteryminder' to get more scientific explanation on this. and i'll try to get it colder
i'll post my report

hmm i never make log on currentwidget. i'll activate this too then
im doing some googling and found this interesting article- although this article explain NimH Battery but think in chemical way they are bothers in hell :
http://www.mpoweruk.com/life.htm
Temperature effects (on battery)
Chemical reactions internal to the battery are driven either by voltage or temperature. The hotter the battery, the faster chemical reactions will occur. High temperatures can thus provide increased performance, but at the same time the rate of the unwanted chemical reactions will increase resulting in a corresponding loss of battery life. The shelf life and charge retention depend on the self discharge rate and self discharge is the result of an unwanted chemical reaction in the cell. Similarly adverse chemical reactions such as passivation of the electrodes, corrosion and gassing are common causes of reduced cycle life. Temperature therefore affects both the shelf life and the cycle life as well as charge retention since they are all due to chemical reactions. Even batteries which are specifically designed around high temperature chemical reactions, (such as Zebra batteries) are not immune to heat induced failures which are the result of parasitic reactions within the cells.
The Arrhenius equation defines the relationship between temperature and the rate at which a chemical action proceeds. It shows that the rate increases exponentially as temperature rises. As a rule of thumb, for every 10 °C increase in temperature the reaction rate doubles. Thus, an hour at 35 °C is equivalent in battery life to two hours at 25 °C. Heat is the enemy of the battery and as Arrhenius shows, even small increases in temperature will have a major influence on battery performance affecting both the desired and undesired chemical reactions.
interesting find! can you experiment further and let everyone know?

okay this is pretty amazing , so when we go to sleep put the phone in the refrigerator

since 1hour in 35C = 2hours in 25C, so, under 0C = not losing power at all! :O
Anyone know an app for measure the real total battery charge in mah ?
So we can verify the spec claimed by factory.
Battery Monitor Widget Pro. You can also choose the free version.
Isn't the original android OS battery usage accurate?

It's not about accuracy. He just wants to check the total amount of mAh in his battery. To see if his battery is really 1230maH or 2300mAh.

I tried Battery Monitor Widget ... but I cant find any discharge test for measure total charge in mah ... I tried also other app like current widget but I cannot find this option
There was an app that you can use to check your phone's battery drain in detail.
I can't remember what it was called... any help?
I had GREAT battery life until today. I would get 35-40 hours for a full charge, and today it didn't last 12 hours...
The app I use is Battery Monitor Widget found in the market. It shows your battery history and how much mA you lose every 5 mins, along with a lot of other stuff.
ok it was called betterbatterystats
It was probably called watchdog
I use Battery Monitor Widget too, find it a great app to use especially if your also trying to undervolt your cpu, you can see the difference with the drain from each charge.
Hey all,
2 days ago, I got my Op5. Very happy with the phone, except for one thing : accubattery says that the capacity is just beneath 3100mah, instead of the 3300mah it should have. I let it run down and charged it to 100% and kept it on the charger for about one hour after that, still around 3100mah, according to accubattery.
How are your batteries? I'd like to know if this is a widespread issue.
How do you know that accubattery is correct?
Alan
Same here, but even lower. After 42 cycles is around 3000 mAh.

Well, since it is measuring the amount of current going in the actual battery, after some cycles you can assume with quite confidence the actual battery capacity. Besides, it will actually plot the measurement, so you can actually see if the data makes sense.
I'm curios also about the actual capacity, because this would be an indicator of why I have seen so much variation about the battery life on different handsets.
Man, I really don't care. Best battery life ever! (I came from OP3 and OP2 before that)

This app shows significantly lower capacity in almost all phones. To determine capacity you have to discharge battery completely (which is not 0% reported by system) and charge it with precise measurements (5 seconds sampling rate like Accubattery isn't enough). This app is like cancer. This is fourth thread in last two weeks about this **** app. Only things it does well is reporting false data gathered by pseudoscience method and drain battery by wakelocks. Do you need to mess up with battery stats? Get Google battery historian.

So, how some users like the one above achieve 8h SOT while others like myself neither 5. I'm even never play games almost, which is typical a drain source on phones.

There is no typical drain source. Everone has different apps installed, different usage, different settings... etc. I can achieve 8h SOT or 2h SOT too. Do you really think, that 10% of reported battery capacity loss would make 60% higher difference in SOT?

Thanks, I didn't know this app is that unreliable.
Basically what the title says.
I've noticed lately that the battery tends to heat up a fair amount during use, as much as 43°C, which also leads to faster battery discharge.
I mean, this phone is almost two years old. Do you think it's a good time to replace the battery?
Background processes
I guess your mobile battery is heating because there might be background processes running and also these processes make your battery drain fast if the above is not true than Replace battery if the phone screen on time is less than 2 hours with full charge.
The capacity of Lithium batteries decreases after some years, but there's no increasing of temperature cause of aging.
It's like mentioned already: battery heats up cause of usage behavior. You can monitor with ampere app how the discharge current increases of specific apps you're using.
As already known: moto g4 plus isn't made for gaming(if this is your field of application.
