Battery Problem - Epic 4G General

I'm having a problem with my battery only charging to 91% and saying its full.
Running
Epic Experience (latest version)
Phoenix Kernel 1.43
only 2 things i've done besides upgrade to epic experience is switch from the latest phoenix kernel back to 1.43. I also updated launcher pro through the marketplace, not sure if this is okay to do or not.
Before doing the upgrade to the latest epic experience I also wiped battery stats and cache.
Also the full battery thing kept popping up even after the upgrade.
Any help would be great, I am trying the various ways to calibrate the battery but haven't found much of a solution yet.

News Widgets Cause Major Batt Drain?

All of a sudden today my batt went from fully charged to yellow in less than 4 hours (no gps, wifi, didn't even barely use it). BUT... I did install 2 news widgets (engadget; gizmodo).
I'm just wondering if they are batt hogs and how often do they check for new news?
Thanks
I was having the same problems when i updated everything with jf updater app, so I decided to re flashed everything all over againc 1.51 image and latest radio with my computer and now the battery last a lot longer, so this solved my problem.

[Help] Battery Drain issue in One Plus One

Hello Experts,
My Battery is draining like crazy. I tried almost everything to figure out what is the issue but could not figure out. Below are the details I gathered from the things I tried.
My battery started draining almost 30 % overnight. Initially I thought it was due to the Unofficial Marshmallow Rom, I could see Wi-Fi to be cause of this drain. Hence I tried different Roms (Cyanogen Mod, PA, DarkObas, Sultan ROM, and stock Cyanogen OS ( Past 3 versions, including latest one). but the battery drain didn't stop.
So I decided to flash PA rom again, installed OpenGapps PICO (Only Google play service nothing else). I installed CPU spy and left it over night in Airplane mode. When I checked in the morning (after 7 hours) battery drain was of 25 %. This was surprising as nothing was running on my phone and only the minimum apps were installed. At this time, CPU spy showed no abnormal wake locks and was in Deep Sleep for almost 93% of the total time. The stock battery usage showed only Mobile Stand by and usage of 50 mAh.
Can you please help me figure out what is causing the battery drain.

Did you try to disable Location>Scanning>Wi-Fi scanning & Bluetooth Scanning? I had a similar situation and started using amplify + greenify on Resurrection Remix and now I have a very good battery life...

Thank you for your reply.
Yes I already tried that. The strange thing is Battery drain is observed in Airplane mode also, while minimum apps installed(Stock apps with PA rom and Opengapps Pico package). Do you have any other suggestions.
It's really hard to judge what could be your issue, you can try different methods to find out who is the actual culprit.May be an app eating your battery or device might have nasty wakelocks,alarms etc or the battery itself would be damaged etc.
Anyways,Turn off ambient display, install BetterBatteryStats then run a full cycle and analyze entire stats of your battery, you'll get know the issue or at least a clue. If you couldn't find out the issue after BetterBatteryStats test then clean flash the a ROM(Recommends CandySix or Darkobas ) w/o GApp and give it a try
Firmware
Try a different firmware version. Here's a link :

Sounds like your battery cannot hold its charge anymore.
How old is your OPO? May be your battery life is about to over.
And this battery drain suddenly started or gradually increased?
Try diagnosing by changing the Location settings to device only. It's some weird bug with COS and CM that's making it to the latest builds of 6.0.1 . I saw that older builds in May don't have this problem.

Thank you for the reply and sorry for the delayed response. I was getting New Battery
Unfortunately, Problem still exists even with the Brand New battery. Can any hardware issue cause this issue? It's certainly not Battery problem and not software problem as well.

You really should have taken my advice earlier and diagnose before making any decisions. If your battery truly was dying, then apps like 3C and Geekbench's battery test would've picked this up as they've linear-regression curve data from aggregate sources that you could've compared to. In your OP, you stated that you saw WiFi as a culprit, but did you also know that Google Play Services (depending on version) can do location requests up to 78 times within the hour on stock apps alone? I used to have this similar battery issue, but that was related to location-requests from Google Play Services that somehow propagated to other sources based on CM13's July commit, meaning that kernels also based on this could've been affected as well. What I eventually settled for, in the meantime, is using SultanXDA's 08082016 build and so far everything looks good on Wifi regarding what I expect for typical battery performance. If I learn something, I'll come back to report on it.

I did took your advice and checked Location services. The problem occurs even with Wi-fi, 3G and Location desiabled. Also in Airplane mode with almost nothing installed (only gapps PICO package and CPUSpy)
i suggest trying old version it may help

You might wanna try that. Possibly MM eating through. I still use Lollipop too. I find no need for MM yet. Also MM feels anti-dev to me for some reason :/ Needs all workarounds for things that were previously much easy to do. Oh well. Try Lollipop and see if it helps? It'd have been my first step for troubleshooting before buying a new battery

Yesterday, I left my phone in Recovery mode (TWRP 3.0.2.0). In less then 5 hours, I observed battery drain of 20%. Same amount of drain is observed when running MM rom. I don't think changing to Lollipop will help. To me it looks like some hardware issue, can any hardware beside battery cause such issue?

Odd battery drain issue that popped up last month

I was previously running andybones' rom from 2.41.605.12 base, then found my way to resurrection remix, great rom, but some update last month killed my battery life and my ability to quick charge, phone was also in constant awake state, but I do not believe the issue was ROM specific. Either way, ran a battery stats report and it appeared that my motion sensors were keeping the phone awake. I completely wiped everything and RUU'd back to 1.19.605.9 (launch firmware), battery drain went away, rapid charging came back, phone would sleep. Performed some OTA updates and everything was fine until it got to the final version of MM 1.85.605.9, rapid charging gone, battery drain back, updated all the way through nougat and nothing changed, still draining.
I am currently back on 1.19.605.9, rooted, twrp installed. Rapid charge and no excessive drain.
What could possibly be causing this? Is anyone else dealing with this?
Here is my post with my last battery stats log
I'm currently dealing with the same thing.
Update: Ran an RUU of 2.41.605.36, then did a full wipe and installed santod40's [ROM][STOCK] 2.41.605.36, chose full wipe, unencrypted install, did some debloating of vzw software... and somehow, I have rapid charging and no wakelock drains...
I have ruu'd before and never resolved the issue. I am not sure what changed in the last RUU for me, but it worked.
...and it's back... lol

So I can't see the full log on my phone, but my phone is having a similar issue. I'm wondering if it's the same as yours. Under partial Wake Locks for BetterBatteryStats it shows NfcService:mRoutingWakeLock runs ALL of the time so my phone never goes into a deep sleep.

To be honest, I didn't even bother getting too deep in to it this time, I ruu'd back to an mm version that I know I don't have this trouble on. 1.85.605.8, and then used santod's debloated 1.85.605.9 after wiping and formatting data. The first time I had the issue, it appeared to be the accelerometer that wasn't allowing the phone to go to sleep... When I looked at the battery stats this time, it didn't seem to be my issue.
If you're s-off, you can downgrade. As much as I would appreciate certain features of nougat, it's not worth it if I have to be attached to a charger all day.
Not sure if it's an issue that carries over with my Google backup, next time I try, I might just do a fresh start and install apps one by one to see if/when it starts.

Galaxy S5 Sucks On battery life!

Help Please!!
Battery is draining extremely FAST!!
Did everything including wipe system and wipe cache
Using TWRP
Refashed the ROM
But didnt solve the POOR battery drain issue.
Here is a story of the problem i am having
I charge the phone on a evening to 100%
I then go to sleep with 100%
Wifi Is off location is off
The only thing i have is my alarm clock to wake me up (Which works)
Wake up and realise that my battery had dropped to around 70% just on idle with alarm
I used the Wakelock Detector [ROOT] to detect any wakelock stuff
Then greenified pretty much every app except the google and some omni stuff because it said not hibernating.
Reflashed ROM, i have nothing at all installed,NOTHING,no app from the play store
Just stock Gapps.
Still the battery is draining like usual.
See Below For Photos
What does Mobile Network Mean and why is it soo red?
Can someone help me please or at least suggest a suggestion that could work.
I dont want to go to linegeOS as it is too plain.
Thanks for reading this
By the looks of it, it seems that you are running a custom Rom so I can see why you'd be confused. My question is are you still using a stock battery because I had a similar problem with mine running stock so I flashed Resurrection and I still had battery drain problems. I would recommend purchasing an aftermarket battery from Powerbear on Amazon. It's around $20 which is quite step compared to purchasing another stock battery but (speaking from experience) it's worth the purchase.

Battery Issue

So, I have been using the Moto G4 Plus ( Indian Variant -XT1643 ) for a quite few months. Then 1-2 months ago, I rooted it, first with superuser and then replaced it with Magisk. I am using ElementalX kernel. But then after some days , the battery started acting weirdly. It drains very quickly. Also if I charge the phone fully and then reboot in bootloader , it drops to 15-16 . Sometimes the phone switches off at 10% battery. Even in idle, the battery drains very fast. When charged to 100%, the battery page of settings shows something like 45-55 mins left and that too varies. Currently on 56% it's showing 51 mins left. It's just 1 hour ago when I charged my phone to 100%. Is it time to replace the battery or is it a software issue as it drops to 15% in bootloader even if fully charged. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I have the same problem but only with magisk, wih SuperSU everything is ok ?
Alright, I will try with SuperSu and update you. Thanks for the help.
Its software issue, may be ex kernel, magisk, supersu or any other app is draining it. Use better battery stats or similar like it and see who is sucking your battery juice.
And as you have already rooted your phone then try any custom rom as they dont have its problem (some may have also). And if wanna stick to stock rom then reset your phone and root it and then use for a while you will get the difference from before and now.

Ok. Its good to know that it's a software issue. I already tried factory reset but it didn't help. Strangely, the battery is fine now. I drained it completely and charged to 100%. Maybe that might have reset the battery stats or something. Anyways , if the problem still persists I will try custom ROM. Thanks a lot.

Hmmm, I never had battery drain issues while using ElementalX kernel rooted with Magisk (14.0).
At least not while using Motorola stock Nougat with the above.
Maybe your battery just lost its calibration as you assumed.
