had my hd2 for a couple of months now, battery has been ok, normally if i didn't do much with it it would probably last a couple of days.
But over the last couple of days i've seen my battery capacity disappear, today i unplugged it from the charger at about 9am, by 3pm i was down to 50%.
Of course i checked all the usual suspects, but found i have no apps running, no wifi, no bluetooth, no data connection and i had made or received no calls or text messages
while i investigate what might have changed over the last week or so, can anyone else offer some suggestions?
how is your signal where you are, if it drops from H and 3g it will use more battery power trying to get the signal back, or you could have a damaged battery
Having the same issue right here, just in the past few days. I got mine 'round christmas. Maybe the battery is of poor quality, so it looses capacity after "few" charges (remind how often you have to recharge your hd2 under normal conditions).
looks like it's solved
tried rebooting and resetting with the reset button but no joy...
i had installed a trial version of Navigon 7 last week, i removed it last night and the battery consumption is back to normal now. Strange as Navigon wasn't even running while it was draining the battery, maybe it has some process running in the background?
Each time I reboot my OPT, the battery level drops by at least 4-5%. I also find the phone takes pretty long to boot in general (around half a minute, if not more). With my Huawei Mate 7, rebooting was a matter of seconds, and the battery hardly lost 1% in the process. (The phone had other issues, though ...)
Who is experiencing the same? What could be the issue? Purely apps autostarting, or could it be something else? Note that I am rooted, running Xposed (with only 2 modules: GravityBox and VibrateMode) and on Boeffla Kernel beta15. I don't use Greenify and Amplify (anymore) and don't perform any heavy tasks on startup, except for loading some widgets (Google News & Weather, Google Calendar and Google Keep).
Same
Happens to me as well, using the same kernel, though i use kernel Auditor app too which starts on reboot, have greenify aswell .. battery drains by 4-5% on a reboot
Wow ... this is really such bulls**t ...
I adjusted multiple settings today that each needed a reboot. First I was at 30% battery, after the reboot I was suddenly at 20%. Note that before that, the indicated battery percentage had stayed at 30% for about two hours, despite being on mobile data with apps running in the background (not normal!) Then, I made a nother reboot. Immediately after that, the battery was at 17%, then suddenly dropped to 15% after several minutes, and several minutes later again to 11%.
Clearly this is a bug in how OOS calculates the battery percentage and something OnePlus needs to address in (one of) the next system update(s).
EDIT: LOL ... while I wrote this, my battery dropped to 7% ...
i can second this..., so if you dont want your battery to drop, dont reboot! LoL, kind pain in the *ss

Yeah, but you sometimes have to, like when updating an Xposed module or changing a setting that requries a reboot ... though I admit, none of this happens on a daily basis.
I tried soft reboots, but those seem to lead to issues with the phone recognizing the network carrier correctly ...
Hello, OnePlus, are you going to fix all of these annoying bugs in the next OOS update?
Today: percentage stuck at 44%, down to 41% after reboot, drop to 33% after several minutes. This is the most extreme case I have experienced yet ...

That's exactly why i only updating xposed modules, adaway host etc at night before sleeping with the phone plugged to wall charger, LoL
Like those?
First time that happens to me.

Whoa! I never had it THAT extreme ... I wonder what is wrong with the way the battery percentage is calculated. Seems like something with the calibration is way off in OOS.
Another observation: This doesn't seem to happen when the battery is freshly charged. I just did 2 reboots after charging to 100%, the first time it dropped to 99%, the second time to 97%. -> more evidence that the percentage isn't properly calculated while the phone is in use, hence these heavy drops from time to time vs. percentage staying the same for multiple hours.
Yep I'm seeing this too, mine even appeared to jump up after a reboot a couple of times
I am having the same issues, easily leading to 5-10% less battery after rebooting!
Also, my battery goes through the first 15 % or so very easily and then settles, there is clearly something wrong with the calibration!
There is clearly something very wrong with the battery calibration and/or the way OOS calculates the remaining battery percentage/time. I charged my phone to 100% percent over night, played a power-hungry 3D game on the train for 30 minutes, then flashed the latest Boeffla Kernel and did two reboots. I was at 78% after playing and at 64% after the second reboot (which seems "normal"), now my phone is idling at 64% since 2 hours.
Notice that the remaining time is shown as less than 2 hrs, and has been like that for 2 hrs ... this is highly unlikely. Also, what's the big gap there? The reboots surely didn't take half an hour ...
I also experienced this battery percentage stuck thing it stuck at 24%for few hours during that period my cellular data is on and sot is also half an hour during that time.
After that battery percentage suddenly drops to 20%.
Was experiencing the same, I tried calibrating my battery (Let it die, then charge it while it's off to 100%, run a battery calibration app, restart, charge it again to 100%), I used a 5V/1.8A LG adaptor (and not the original one, which seems to mess up touch sensitivity) and it seems to be fixed by now.
Hi guys,
I have some trouble with very differing battery discharge behavior, because of unknown reasons.
For example today: in the afternoon, the phone was lying on my desk, in Standby (you know, black screen, but switched on). After a while I grabbed it and noticed that it was quite warm. And indeed, the battery had lost way more than normal during a short period of time. I shut it down completely to save some capacity for the evening.
I turned it on 45 minutes later only to see that it had lost a significant amount of capacity while shut down/turned off!!
Sooo:
1. Has anybody experienced something similar?
2. Is there an explanation apart from a very crappy battery (but usually, it does not seem to be one) or a spy software running?
Regards,
Puni
Hello,
Today my battery just died randomly, I was about at 65% and the phone just turned off, boot up failed due to low battery and I had to plug in and charge to get it boot.
This has also happened previously when the battery was at around 30% a few weeks ago.
What can I do to rectify this issue? I am running stock unrooted Android 7.0 on my Nexus 6P. I have attached a screenshot demonstrating the sudden drop in battery from the graph in settings. It's like 65% of battery life just disappeared!
The only thing I remember doing to the phone was accidentally double tapping the power button and it opened the camera, but this shouldn't have caused the battery death should it?
This is very troubling as my warranty expires soon and I need my phone to be reliable throughout the day!

Get it replaced.
I know I had another post about my horrible battery life, however I was able to finally resolve that. This time however I have a new issue with it that just started a few days ago so I figured I would make a separate post.
I will say, on a side note, I'm super close to crushing my Turbo 2 in a bench vise at this point, Motorola and Verizon are quickly getting themselves to the top of my **** list......
I'm having an issue with a wakelock by the name of "ConnectivityService" that is keeping the phone awake and causing the "Android System" to be at the top of my battery drain list at 70%. This only seems to start draining the battery when I'm not connected to wifi. If I shut off wifi completely it gets worse.
Connectivity Service is holding the phone awake constantly and draining my battery down completely in just a few hours. I can't seem to figure out if there is an app or setting that can disable that wakelock, but I haven't installed anything new lately and there haven't been any app updates that I have seen.
The other issue is when I restart my phone, the battery level drops by 10% every time.
And for what its worth, with my past battery post "fix" I was only able to increase my battery to last around 20 hours on a single charge with 1.5 hours of screen on time. Still not great but this new issue is pretty much rendering the phone useless.
Any suggestions or should I put a deer slug through this phone?
