[Q] My poor battery - Huawei Ideos X5 U8800

I had always battery problems. I have been using for 1.5 years.
1 month ago i installed b528 rom and nowadays, the charge goes around 4-5 hours. I did not make calibration yet.
I have to charge 4-5 times in a day.
Until %50, it goes very fast. After %50, it slows down.
I dont know what will i do. Maybe buying a battery 2050 mah can help me? I dont know what to do.
The best thing seems carrying 2-3 batteries with me those charged the before night. Please tell me some suggestions.

HOw are those?

I have a problem with battery too. Android system take more than 80% of battery usage. I tried many roms but no result

We are waiting some help.
Now i have made calibration. It seems cool but we will see.

Have similar Draining problems. It goes from 100-90% within in minutes. No WiFi or Data enabled.
@Cursed Chico:
Has Calibration helped?

Yes a little helped. Now it goes 4-5 hours but it is some stupid, it goes to %60 very fast, then jumps to %37 then after %15, it jumps to %3.
Until %60s, it goes very fast.I think i need new battery

Battery indicator of HD is unreliable

Why in the world don't you charge properly the battery before rebooting the device ?
My HD always reports the right battery values because I don't let the battery drain that much, if you wan't the battery to last many months please don't let it drain so close to 30%.

Because I want to test the battery consumption of HD .
Perform a complete discharge, recharge fully and then test..

Also some of us have no choice,
My device never lasts a whole day,
The battery consumption on the device is very bad.

You should say: some applications I installed or functionality I have enabled are draining my battery badly. The device itself with the standard applications does not drain the battery in one day.
I agree that for example using wifi is a major drainer, but I do not beleive there are other devices out there that do it a lot better, like say continous wifi for two days...
Battery cosumption is always a problem in all devices. There is no single PDA out there that does not have a "battery" thread and how bad it is blah blah blah...
I can give you examples of devices that will be drained within a couple of hours, and the same devices being able to last for three weeks or more. It all depends on what you run and how you use it.
Your may be right or maybe not,
I think I'll un-install my apps and reinstall again with each new app being added one day at a time, to work out if any of them is killing my battery

A "normal" application doesn't drain your battery. By a "normal" application I mean something that you open, work on, and close it again.
You have to pay attention to applications, which are running in the background and/or are polling every few seconds something.

Hi,
the battery took long to reach 50%... about a day of heavy usage but after 50%, it took less den an hour of heavy usage to get to 10%. anyone experience this? or is my battery fautly? thanks.
i know that between soft resets my battery will change values, usually go up e.g. if its 40% when i reset when it reboots it will be 44%
i have the same issue here
but the battery last 2 days with me

Same here...on my device from 50 to 10% goes WAY faster than from 100 to 50%. To me it means crappy indicator. Must be a HTC problem, as my Prophet displayed similar behaviour.
This behaviour ("jumping" percentage after power-off) is completely normal, but the explanation would be very long.
Short version: What the battery % displays is in fact a translation of the voltage of the LiIon battery. When you switch off the device the voltage recovers a little bit, thus you get a higher % value when you switch it on the next time .. and which will fall rather rapidly until it stabilizes under the present load of the battery. Also the discharge curve of a LiIon battery is not completely linear.

Unique Battery problem

Sorry to start another thread on battery issues but I was unable to find a scenario like mine.
Hey everybody, Im new to the android scene, just got my vibrant less than a month ago. Before that I had an Iphone 3g. So far I like the phone but the battery life is horrible. When I surf the internet on wifi or 3g I noticed that I use like 3-5% in a matter of 5 mins. Is this normal? I consider myself to be a light-moderate user and have been getting and average of 12 hours or so on my vibrant. Also if it makes any difference when my phone is idle or being used my temperature runs around the high 80's low 90's but when being charged it drops to the low 80's or high 70's. What is going on? How can I get more 20 hours on my phone? With the iphone I used to get an easy 15 hours and still have like 40-50% remaining.

When I first got the vibrant, it had pretty bad battery life, I would lose like 25% while sleeping 8-10 hrs. So light usage would be like a day. Slowly I started to get longer battery life (2 days on light usage). Recently I could get up to like 3.5 days on real light usage. After updating to JI6, max I can get now is like 3 days. I didn't really do much and I tripled my battery life by just giving it time.
Thanks burntrat I guess ill be patient. And I must mention that I am running stock.i was just worried because my battery temperature gets colder when charging and warmer when idle or running.

Hey burntrat or anybody, has your battery ever acted sort of schizophrenic on you? I mean one day I leave it on standby and its drains like 1% in 7-10 hours another day I leave it on standby and it drains 18% in about 4 hours. Whats going on?

if your phone is draining a lot during standby or sleeping. There may be a rogue app out there or an app that didnt shut down properly. (I guess that would mean a rogue app)

@aamir123 and burntrat: maybe you guys need to calibrate your battery? Also the stock rom usually has a lot of bloatware running in the background. Flashing a custom rom oughta do the trick.

How do you recalibrate the battery?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Try this. Download the system panel app from the market. You can set it to monitor your system and it will chart what applications are running and how much they are using the cpu. If you find you have some unnecessary bloatware running in the background download titanium backup and freeze those apps.

There are a lot of different ways mentioned in different forums. Try this:
Let your battery drain all the way to the point when it turns off by itself.
Charge it while its off until its full.
Unplug it, turn the phone on, then plug it in again.
After it reaches 100, unplug the charger and turn your phone off.
Once off, plug it in and let the charging complete.
Once complete, unplug it and turn the phone on. When everything has loaded, turn the phone off (note: no charging involved in this step.)
After it turns off, charge it one last time until 100%. After this, go into recovery and clear battery info (or cache, I forget). There you go
Oh, and its better if you don't download too many apps that monitor battery usage, cpu etc. cuz they will contribute to the battery consumption.

It isn't a good idea to let your battery drain all the way to zero since it is lithium ion. I think skipping that part and just charging it when it's on to full, then off to full, then on to full, then off to full and then wiping battery stats would suffice. Also you need to have clockwork recovery to wipe battery stats.

When the phone turns off by itself, the battery still has some juice left in it to prevent it from losing the ability to charge, if that's what you meant by not a good idea cuz its lithium ion. If thats not what you meant, then please explain why.

Agreed. In my case, I barely lasted 12 hours on moderate use with any of the JI6 2.1 ROMS (Eugene's, Bionix, Fusion, etc). I think after I updated to 2.2, all of the ROMS have been giving me 18+ hours on moderate-heavy use no matter what modem or kernel I use.
So where is the "unique" problem?

Battery life been sucking...

I don't know if it's my imagination, but since the 2.4.6 update, my battery life has dropped a bit. By the time I get into my office from my morning commute, I'm anywhere in the 65-70% battery life after unplugging from a full charge. I haven't done anything new. I always unplug around 8:30 am when I head out, I do some light chatting with gf, browse some sites, check facebook (usually very briefly), and maybe sometimes do a little reading on my device. By the time I get into the office around 9:30 or 10 AM, I'm usually around the 80-85% area with battery.
Lately, doing the same thing, I'm seeing the aforementioned 65-70%.
Is anyone else experiencing decreased battery life since 2.3.6?
I'm on a Tmobile Nexus S, running stock 2.3.6 (no custom ROMs).
2.4.6 ? .... maybe 2.3.6 ... and yes, I also noticed a slight increase in power consuption after the upgrade. The stand-by is still great .. about 0.8 - 1% per hour.
Sorry, yes I meant 2.3.6.
Thanks for replying Ro_explorer. Is your increased power consumption significant? Seeing 65-70% when I'm used to seeing 80-85% as I get into my office, I find, is a large change. To be frank, the battery life of the Nexus S in general isn't so fantastic to begin with... this hit makes it worse.
Anyone else?
I used to get home with about 40-50% after a whole "normal day" (unplugged at 8AM, and getting back home at ~8PM) .. now (with the same average usage) I'm getting home with ~30-40% ... that why I said "slight increase" ...
Not your imagination, I too have noticed this. I hope the next update, will fix this - as I used to get pretty good battery life (even with over 250 apps).
When I recently updated to the 2.3.6, it caused a bug of continuous reboot (every 1-3 minutes), so I had to do a hard reset - now it works fine, but I only have added back about 15 apps - and the battery life sux!
Downgrade OS' it will be ok.
This is so weird. Why is the battery life worse?

You want bad battery life? Try an Evo 4g with a Sense rom. I averaged about 6hrs using a 1500mAh battery, in stock form.
The nexus is pretty light on power consumption, if you ask me. I average 15hrs on the stock 2.3.7 rom/kernel combo, with stock battery.

I'm on 2.3.6 and need to charge every two days. I text a lot and do light gaming. I'm typing this from my phone. Maybe you could drain the battery and wipe battery stats? I'm not even at 50% yet and I charged yesterday.

I also noticed that the battery last less time
I've been waiting to see if anybody else reporting this issue
i noticed a decent increase in battery life going to 2.3.7 and thought that previously the battery life had been fairly poor :\
I am non rooted, and get around 20 hrs on light to moderate use. Again. Stock, non rooted.
How do I recalibrate my battery? I wonder if it could be that...
There are many was to recalibrate. Some involve wiping batt stats, some plugging and unplugging phone several times after charge.
I have always found that using the battery almost all the way down, but not past 5%, and then full recharge conditions it very well.
Oh I've been here to solve the problem
"Why last 2 weeks my Nexus s drain battery so fast ? or I have to calibrate it"
Thank for your notice about update OS to 2.3.6.
I think that's a root cause for me too.
1. Could I rollback to 2.3.4 ,how?
2. Does battery calibration is useful for this case , how?( someone suggest to calibrate when flashing new rom )
Thank you very much..
i want to know who have some methods to do with this stuff

Whenever switching roms, kernels, or batteries, i always perform the following :
1. Charge to a true 100% (Battery Monitor Widget will register +0 to +2 mA)
2. Wipe battery stats using recovery (Amon RA has this option for the Evo, not sure about cwm), Battery Monitor Widget, or a dedicated app.
3. Discharge battery to 0% with normal usage. When the phone shuts down, I pull and re-install the battery and power back up (it will shutdown again very quickly).
4. Recharge battery and be on my merry way.

I found one workaround solution for this issue on
ww.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=1684c50cea15282a&hl=en&fid=1684c50cea15282a0004af022e5ed212
Sproogle77 's solution
Problem solved. Using the OS Monitor app, I found that the main culprit was Google Services - the Contacts sync specifically. Even though I had this disabled (only Gmail was being allowed to sync) it was constantly working, apparently trying to fix a location. The message log showed that it was generating continuous debug messages, all about locations - around 10 of these every second.
I have solved the problem by disabling 'Use wireless networks' under the Locations & Security settings.'Use GPS satellites' is still running. This immediately dropped my CPU usage - which had been running around 30 to 40% even when otherwise idle, to around 10%. Google contacts sync is now using 0% of the CPU. The difference in battery life was pretty much immediate and is now back to what it was before - the change in the slope on the battery usage graph is remarkable!
This doesn't really seem like a solution to me, and I don't know whether other aspects of my functionality are being affected, but at least my phone is properly useable again.
I'm testing for 1 day and I think that's working for me.

One reason is that the new version of the stock kernel removed a speed stepping, so it'll power to higher levels faster, thus using more battery.

That actually isn't the problem. I'm using netarchy's kernel and still get this problem.
My battery life dropped from 16 hours --> 6 hours. the slope on my battery usage life is horrible the system is also awake almost constantly even when I'm not touching it / getting no messages.
I will try the fix suggested on the google support forum and see if that does the trick. sloppy update.

[Q] Strange battery issues

I have CM7.1 on my MT4G. Over the past week or so, my battery has been dying after 2-3 minutes of use. I'll get a full charge, take it off the charger, use any app(Angry Birds, Gtalk, text messaging...) and the phone will shut itself off after just a couple minutes of use. When I turn it back on, it says 2%-3%. It then shuts itself off again, I plug it in and turn it on...says anything from 3% to 90%.
I've always ran the battery down and charged to full. Is my battery kaput? Is there a way to fix this?

Most likely.. take out the battery and inspect for leaks(might be very small discharge you might not see it clearly leak can and will damage your phone)..let it die completely, and let it stay off, charge it till the green light comes on, reboot into recovery, clear battery stats, reboot and see how long it last, also change your brightness, and other settings that might be consuming battery use..if none of these helps.. just buy another battery.
Sounds like your battery is screwed. Just buy a oem battery or get a mugen power 1650mAh

My issues aren't quite that bad, but after I upgraded to CM7.1 from 7.0, by battery has been terrible. 15-20m of phone calls over BT takes ~20% of the battery. 15m on Angry Birds chewed up ~40% of the battery. I downloaded the latest nightly (252) and will see what happens.
Try a dif battery and see if it does the same thing. So you can rule things out

Mines also been horrible since I went from CM 7.0 to CM 7.1. Not sure whats up but it dies in like 6 hours on standby. the battery use app shows that most of the battery usage is by "Cell Standby". So effectively, doing 'nothing' is eating up the battery?
~Phil
I guess I'm not having the problem you guys are having with battery drain. Granted I didnt use my phone that heavily, but still sitting at 60% after 10 hours. But if your battery is dead after 3 minutes something is seriously wrong, I agree and try a new battery.

You need to calibrate the battery after changing ROM's. Download a battery calibrator from the market. (Don't pay for one. There are like 10 free ones)
Charge the phone fully overnight. Calibrate it in the morning.
Give it a few days to gather new battery data, and then enjoy getting a full day's use from the phone.
Update
So, it's gonna have to be the battery. Recalibrated, no good. Tried a few different ROMs from CM7 nightlies to MIUI, no good.
Waiting for the new battery to get here to be sure.
Thanks for all of the help and advice!
same problem here
hello there, i got 2 mytouch 4g both running the same rom (virtuous unity 2.39) one of them has eaten 2 batteries that i bought thinking that the batteries were somehow broken or damaged... i came across this thread, read the reply recomending battery calibrator when i reached for my phone (that i left sitting on my drawer waiting for a new batt AGAIN) to give it a try and to my surprise it was still on and i has been on for 2 days 11hours and the fricking battery was at 97% before that it started to turn off-discharge so i put the thing on airplane mode and there it was till now... dunno why or what but i think it has something to do with the radio/network... hope we find a cure for this
I've been having this same issue, and I was wondering if replacing the battery fixed the issue? Thanks.

Fix For Battery Jumping Around

1) Charge ur phone while off untill u reach 100%
2)Remove the battery but dont unplug the phone from wallcharger
3)Reinsert the battery, you will see 0%
4) Let the battery charge, when reach 100% power on the phone without unplugging wallcharger.
Now should be all good
you are kidding right ?
This is the one of the worst advices I've heard..... Overcharging the battery is dangerous.
It will actually degrade the batteries performance
I don't know what to say. Does this work?
Also by battery jumping do you mean those crazy drops between reboots or just drops due to lack of deep sleep?

Btw the drop between reboots
Battery bin tracks the battery usage giving an estimate of the charge been used, battery .bin gets wiped every time it get to 100%, and the tracking of battery's current starts
As I remember lithium batteries charge in two cycles
1- constant current
2- constant voltage near the full capacity.
But then if you trick the phone to read battery as 0% then you are sending more current to an already full battery overcharging.
The jumping of battery percentage is because a bug in the battery "gauge"
But as always if in wrong, my apologies and I'll be more than happy to read your source.
Biggest issue is that the battery has a very poor C-rating, and has huge voltage drops under heavy load. The reboot battery problem comes from this; when you reboot your phone, or other times as well, the heavy usage spike drops the battery voltage down. Android system them detects this low voltage and just assumed the battery is almost empty. Normally there is some averaging going on to remove these spikes, and even then the battery % only goes down, so when the voltage recovers it just shows the same % for longer. Problem when rebooting is that it only sees this low, under load voltage and acts accordingly.
If the voltage isn't low enough so the phone shuts down, you might get 30minutes of screen time while the battery is showing 1%.
My problem is that the last 14% of my battery lasts under a minute before the phone shuts down. So I just treat 15% as actually meaning 1%.
Also, you can't dangerously over charge the battery, it has protection circuitry built in, and the li-ion charger part will detect the real voltage. This "supercharging" does however cost some long term lifetime from it, so it shouldn't be done too often.
Please excuse me, this is long.
Hello guys. I need some advice. I use I9195.
From the past 2 weeks i am facing serious battery drops
while phone is in standby.
I must mention that in the last 2 months my phone accidentally dropped onto marble floor 4-5 times.
Each time i checked to see if everything was working and everything did. But from the last time i dropped i began to notice this battery drain.
I made sure all hardware is working.
No problem with display even after all those drops.
(only minor scratches)
Earpiece, 2 cameras, speaker, mic, wifi, bluetooth all work fine. Network quality is great. This is the behavior with any rom, any modem and any usage.
When in standby, battery drains upto 2-3% every hour.
No background apps/services , wakelocks or anything that keeps device awake. And yet the drop is steep and is solely due to "cell standy".
I have no screenshots but here is a scenario :::
From 98% to 33% in ,
16hrs usage, 1hr33min awake and 1hr16min screen on.
Wifi enable half the time and 3g data was disabled.
EDIT :: New battery did not solve this drain.
Hey guys. Please suggest what should i be doing.
Read post above. Can new battery help ?
Thanks. [emoji29]
