[Q] Battery Consumption Measurement Mah - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

is there any way to measure the battery consumption in mAH, as I read in battery trick they are saying the battery originally drops 50 mAH or more in standby, but after setting the trick they said that it got to 5 - 6 mAH, so how can it be measured?

is not only battery trick.... read other thing what you need to do... battery trick is useless if you have draining battery with other apps (dont use too much apps with live tiles, working in background, mail checking, etc..)...

Athena Battery Life

Hi Friends
My Advantage show battery life in percent, but it is add by 10%
it mean 10% 20% ... 90% 100%
it jump from 100 to 90
is any way to see complete percent?
SPB Gprs monitor show how much battery life work, but don't show the percent of battery

no, the reason this happens is due to the limitations of the internal circuitry of the battery.
In keepimg with many modern devices I expect the indicator is just that, an indicator!
It's not that accurate as the monitoring circuitry would be faily non cost effective for a consumer device.

Battery "calibration" after new Seidio 3000mAH battery....question

Hey all,
I am now using the seidio 3000mah battery, and I love it. However, the 'low battery's state of the phone (low brightness, no camera, etc.) Now last for 6 or 7 hours or more with heavy use....no joke. I think its the 15% or lower mark
Is there a way to tell my phone that the battery is not actually low.....
Thanks in advance,
Matt
Not that I know of at this point. I have the 3500mah battery and experience the same nonsense.
Lol. It is doing that because the battery is low. All the battery stats are based strictly off voltage.
4.2 volt is full
4.0 volts is 80 percent
3.8 volts 60 percent
Blah blah....
So by the time your phone shuts the camera down your battey Is actually low, the problem is that your battery has double the capacity so your low time is twice as long.
The easy fix is to flash a rom that has that fixed. The hard part is to find that rom.
The phone is working exactly as designed.
You can try to reset battery stats and relearn. All that does is tie percentages to voltages though. It might help you some.

That looks pretty damn good.
I was just about to post a thread. Something is draining my battery life and causing Android System to be the highest battery usage. Check out below.

Auto brightness.

But I used my iphone at work to watch videos, ect while there is downtime. I usually watch while it's also on the charger
For the Note series, does anyone know if that "kills" my battery for long term?
I know you can replace battery, but just wondering for future use.
Thanks.
Issue with battery drain due to android system is real
All three people I know that just got the Note 4 were experiencing the same issue I had with excess battery drain with the always generic "android system" taking more battery than anything else including the screen.
I downloaded an app called "System Tuner" and looked the CPU% for Android system and it was a constant 3-4% when the phone was otherwise idle.
I found a post at http://support.t-mobile.com/thread/80459 where they were experiencing the same issue (lose around 12% battery an hour with android system taking a huge chunk of battery). The person from that post was able to address the issue by turning location off, rebooting, turning location on, and rebooting again. After I did this I saw Android system idle at ~0.6% - 1.1% instead. So far I'm getting much better battery life but I'll need to give it some time to know for sure.
Hope this helps!
mine took about 2 full days for everything to finish syncing, downloading, indexing, etc. I had books, news articles, pinned music from google play, etc.
Once that happened, everything is now "normalized" and I'm getting better battery life than I was with the note 3.

Short answer: Maybe, it depends on how you are doing it. Using it while it is charging is not necessarily bad but watching videos and keeping it plugged in while the cell voltage is pegged at 100% will likely deteriorate your battery faster.
Long answer + tips:
Lithium ion batteries are great - they are light, can be made very thin and have excellent energy density but they are also very finiky.
Things to avoid doing with a lithium ion battery
-Charging to 100%, leaving it plugged in overnight is a poor practice(high cell voltages reduce the service life*, stopping the charge at 90%[4.10v] can double the service life, stopping the charge at 80%[4.00v] can quadruple the service life.*)
- Discharging the battery to below ~20% (Li-Ion batteries are somewhat sensitive to deep discharges)
-Charging/exposing Li-Ion to elevated temps or below freezing.
*service life is defined by when a battery can only retain 70% of its rated capacity. Most consumer batteries used in mobile devices have a service life of 500 charge discharge cycles.
It is not uncommon for batteries to lose 30% capacity in 1.5 years or less. Changing your charging and handling habits can double or quadruple a batteries life span.

LOL your picture took up have my damn screen on my 1080p laptop with 15.7 in screen. It was crystal clear too.
On my 2nd charge, auto brightness. Pretty freakin' amazing battery life....
15.5 hours off the charger with 8+ screen on time!
I got awful battery life on the first charge cycle. It drained 50% overnight. 2nd charge has lasted amazingly long and I still have 64% after 12hrs of average use.
First charge. Battery life has been phenomenal. Brightness on auto.

			
				
Did u use any power saving features to achieve that time?

Definitely improve battery with recent update and I'm a power user
After the latest update
I dont know why but my phone goes from 100-90 in less than a hr with minimal use while the screen is set at auto, also in the leaving it unplugged in the night the battery also drains like 5 points.
I've been at full brightness and using the hell out of it non stop so far, and I'm at 35% with screen on time at 3hrs 40 min.

Battery capacity less than it should

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?

Question How's the battery like in details? Could you please provide screens from AccuBattery?

Hi guys, how do you find this phones battery life with cellular network on? Can't seem to find any info about it.
I am on Pixel 6 Pro and I am looking for replacement. As you can see on my screens P6P has some serious battery issues. While it's in my pocket or lying on the desk with screen off it sucks battery life like crazy. Up to 5% per hour sometimes. This is my fourth device(Google agreed to replace it 3 times) and all the previous ones had the same issues. I have tested it in safe mode too. It's that crappy modem in P6P. Btw I am unable to wirelessly charge it too. I noticed that when P6P will heat up to 39degC it will stop charging so in northern Spain I'm unable to charge my phone(unless I put it in the fridge for some time) without a cable lol.
Will NP1 have better results?
This is normal with the screen on and full screen brightness.

I am asking about NP1 and talking about battery standby with screen off performance(4,5%/h) for P6P.
2592000 pixels in NP1
4492800 pixels in the P6P
The battery in NP1 is Li-Po 4500 mAh
The battery in the P6P is Li-Ion 5003 mAh
If the Qualcomm SM7325-AE Snapdragon processor in the NP1 is more economical and online operation does not devour as much power as by Google Tensor in the P6P, you can minimally extend the all-time online usage time with the screen on.

Alright but have you got any data regarding standby screen off battery usage on NP1? This is what I am asking here about.
I do not deal with insignificant models in which components spontaneously fail after a few years.

this does not show anything really. Can you please go to history and open a log when you were like from 100% to 10%?
Never been from 100% to 10% since I got the phone as I use Android auto and it charges. Will try to do a 100 to 10 tomorrow and then post it here.
This is 83% to 59% if this helps
Is DeepSleep working for anyone?
Getting poor battery life on my NP1. Black 8/256 Indian variant. Any tips to improve
Looks like firmware is broken, not a hardware problem
Guys, can anyone confirm, how much SOT to expect from this phone?
Also, in accubattery and castor apps, my battery is showing 4350mah instead of 4500, is this an issue?

SOT more like 7 hours plus (varies with usage I don't play games and got 7 hrs : 40 mins sot ) and inaccuracy of battery capacity is there with many tools reporting 4350 while others 4500 like CPUX reporting the later one. Accubattery has a feature of estimate battery capacity after few charge cycles that is showing 4495 on my unit so check that incase.
It need to be 7h+ but it is not, thats the problem.
