Hello guys,
I got 32.0.A.6.200 on my Z5 few days ago (I'm in Sweden) and since then battery drains much much faster then before. I use the phone in the same way and did not install new apps since the update. I use the phone for about 3 months and never had battery issues until now.
Yesterday 13th Feb, I had 100% at around 12am and after barely 8 hours I had 59% with ... STAMINA ON since 12am (!) ... crazy. Battery was fully discharded during the night. I will post some photos once I find a way how to do it...- I cannot post outside link, can you guide me how to upload photos?.
Today 14th Feb I charged my phone to 100% at 10am and estimated battery life is only 18 hours (this time with STAMINA OFF). Later today I will post some screenshots when battery reached 10%.
Do you experience the same?
Cheers
Sly
I guess thats the mobile radio active bug thing thats eating up your battery. You check for that by going to settings->power management ->battery usage ->click on the app that most used your battery and see the mobile radio active thing. Its a lollipop bug ??

I don't have problems (using 152 fw, though 200 fw is almost the same)
If u have had better battery life before upgrading, I suggest u to do a full factory reset - I've seen stranger things getting fixed by factory reset
Hi, i had that Problem too, the best solution is to use androplus v11 with thunderplug, i got much better battery-life with it.
EDIT: Best to use with Kernel Adiutor, because of the Features.
Best Regard's

i have poor battrery on .200 too. I have polish phone from orange but without simlock and i use Plus GSM. I make 2 times factory reset but still nothing. The most drainer for me is ANDROID SYSTEM. On LG g2 i have problems with google services and here with system. In G2 i have root so that was no problem to solved but on Z5 i'm using visa and NFC to payment.
Thanks for your responses guys. It seems I am not the only one...
Just for info. Yesterday I repaired the phone via PC Companion so the firmware has been installed from scratch and I restored my backup data. The interesting part was that after all of that I had approx 50% of battery left and Z5 showed me that it should last approx 1 day and 13 hours - which is a very good result. So I thought that finally (!) it's been solved some way.
My happiness did not last long as the battery decreased a lot during night (approx 20% on a newly installed software without any 3rd party apps).
So this morning at 10am I charged my Z5 to 100% and it shows it should last for 23 hours (!). Totally unnaceptable.
I think I will try to do a factory reset tonight...
PS. And I switched from iPhone to Android to have better battery life..... no comment.
Cheers

Estimated battery Remaining time is about how you use ur phone so it's not a important how much you have left.
I have now 20 hours left and i usually get 6 hours sot.
Yes, I agree with you however please note the following:
- before 2nd update to 32.0.A.6.200 I never had any objections or complaints about battery life (since 3 months of usage),
- before 2nd update to 32.0.A.6.200 when the battery was fully charged I had approx 2 days remaining battery time (with few days in Standby),
- after 2nd update to 32.0.A.6.200 when the battery is fully charged I have approx 23 hours remaining battery time (with barely 1 day 2 hours in Standby). And I do not have any apps installed (as like out of the box).
So clearly something is wrong as the difference is crucial. I regret I have installed that 2nd update at all.
Don't let the numbers fool you,use ur phone for few days and you will notice that thing will be back to normal.

You need at least a week after a factory rest to test a battery life.
Lot of sync and pop up during that time.

If your battery is draining without any 3rd party apps, while your mobile is sopouse to sleep, there is no need to rest or test. Don't defend Sony developers! Lets hope for MM as soon as posible, and that it Will resolve all our battery problems.

I heard the standby time on this phone is awesome.
When I got it, the standby time was terrible!
How can I improve battery life?
What am I missing?
EDIT: added poll
This is my experiance.
When I bought the phone...first 3 times I fully discharged my battery and charge it over night when he was off. 3 times like that, one kind of "formating" battery process.
Now with stock ROM 1.66 WWE EastEurope...5-6 programs and 3 games,with normal use I can used him 48h, with full use of everything...24h.

hey thanks! I'll try that. so just let the battery die then charge it up again and repeat?
Do a search. I average about 2.5 days of moderate use.
please don't let your battery die.
Li_ion batteries doesn't suffer from memory loss, so there is no reason to let it discharge fully. let it get low like 3-5%.
but besides that, conditioning of the battery is important on a new battery.
if you flash a new ROM, it is also important to go through cycles before it configured the correct battery capacity.
i got it a couple of days ago as well, and standby time is very impressive. batteryrarely drops over-night.
the problem is during the day with heavy usage...

last night I let it go down to 6% and then powered off.
Then I charged to 100% overnight and I think the life today is better than normal.
I've played a little tekken and I still have 4 filled in battery slots!
Turn off push email and limit anything that updates automatically (weather, facebook info etc..) I went from 1 day to 3 days just by doing that.

As smartmob says, yes. I did it like that for a few days but ended up switching most things back on (email accounts, weather, ms myphone etc.), but with longer intervals between things.
I was suprised how much of a difference turning off these things made to be honest. Turns out that my telling off from O2 (1.2GB of data in a week ) was a blessing in disguise

Hmm, so having read up on some posts claiming that battery life steadily improves with the HD2, I've been patient since Wed (when I got the phone, TMOUS HD2), but my battery life is still horrific. I've got every auto update off, besides weather and email every half hour. I've adjusted every other option I could think of that would drain the battery, and yet, I'm experiencing at best, a 6-7 hour usage with NO web browsing, 2-3 calls, and about 10 texts. In standby alone, my phone is dropping 2-3% every half hour it seems. Also, I've made sure that no superfluous programs are running in the background via taskmanager. Now I've read that others have had poor battery life too, but my case seems pretty bad, and don't see hope that the battery will improve much beyond this. Is it possible that my phone is faulty or that my battery's faulty? or perhaps even both?

There's obviously something wrong somewhere, isn't there!
Perhaps it may be a good idea to try a different battery. It obviously means buying a new one (and not some cheap crap off ebay either!), but it's an easier option than sending your lovely new phone away for repair.
same here
especially coming from a nexus one, since day 1 i have tried all of these solutions and no success.. i did a hard reset as well just to see if that had anything to do with it and it didnt..
im at 40% and i have had the phone for 6 hours and a half, i literally sent 10 texts and called 2 people for a total of 20 minutes.. really strange..
i wish these smartphones had bb battery lives lol, but then again my bb didnt really have a huge screen or touchscreens
yeah if I can't figure out what's causing the issue, I might just go ahead and get my HD2 exchanged for a new one since I'm still within the 14 day return period for Tmobile. Too bad I already applied my screen protector! What a waste...

Maybe you can try using with no sd card. Some people found out that one faulty mp3 may cause such issue. Have a look at the topic 'Extreme battery usage with non-official ROMs' under HD2 ROM Development section.
I wanted to post a link for this topic but I cannot post link due to some restrictions.
Interesting, thanks for the heads up. The thing is, I've only been running the stock factory ROM, and I haven't even uploaded any MP3's onto the device either. Anyhow, I'll give a read through and take my SD card out now to see if it helps!

I'm beginning to think there's something faulty with the TMO-US HD2's.
We should do some testing...
I'm kinda curious about this. I'm so astounded by how much it's changed that I feel kinda obligated to post...
Some background:
I have an Xperia X10 from o2 UK and my battery life was /diabolical/
I would unplug the charger at 7:30am, and head off to work.. I have gmail and an exchange server (I hate moxier!) on PUSH mode.. battery life?... by 3:30-4pm at the latest my battery is at 10% warning!
Incidentally I don't have any aftermarket battery.. just the stock one.
Changes:
I ran the root.. so now I have a rooted R2BA023 install.. then I got set cpu and enabled a profile for screen off which locked the max CPU at 384mhz and min at 256mhz.
New batterylife? I dunno, I'm still counting.. 57 hours since last connect and 22% battery remain.
My actual question:
Anyone else done things to their X10, and what battery life are you seeing as a result?
Greetings friend,
To be honest i found out from my testings that firmware .20 with set cpu on auto had the best possible results till now for me.
Now i am on .23 firmware and testing it . i am having a full charge now and i will revert with my comments.
But the results you posted are amazing. Could you please give me your activity ? Calls - sms - wifi etc
Your post:
New battery life? I dunno, I'm still counting.. 57 hours since last connect and 22% battery remain.
Please keep as posted.
Thanks and regards

battery has improved a lot(dint root my phone)..its been 5 hours since i updated my phone at dat time it was 64% n after 5 hours i see my battery reduced to 59%% dats awesome
20min of wifi use(timesscape update,installing app from market,facebook)..7 calls(max 12min of talk)..11 messages n 15 min of asphalt 5..loving da new update thx SE
Baseband: 1.1.27
Build No: R2BA023
Yeah people are seeing about 48 hours average standby with the newest firmware (I might note that before debranding the newest my phone would update to was R1BA016! What the hell are o2 UK doing?) however mine is now at like 60 hours and still counting. Getting close to the threshold at 20% battery remaining but still.. more than acceptable now.
Usage:
Little bit of music playback, about 30 minutes..
bunch of missed calls
constant push emails (my exchange account is pretty busy, it'll see dozens of mails per working day), several of which I reply to...
about 30 minutes of talk time
alarm clock every morning
few apps from the marketplace downloaded/installed
few minutes of webbrowsing
about 10-12 photos.
roughly 10 minutes of video recorded.
setcpu will help out your battery, but the r2 firmware greatly improves on the r1 firmware in terms of battery life. i am not rooted and if i leave my phone unplugged and with wifi off the battery life barely changes at all while sitting at idle.
did you have the r2 firmware before rooting? i bet most of the improvement is coming from the updated firmware
I fully charged my mobile and after 5 minutes i lost 5% of battery i dont know why but firmware . 23 seemz thats not working for me , i will keep it for a bit but already thinking to go on . 20 again. I domt know if i am doing something wrong.

Wow!!!! Battery life absolutely sucks.
I have a Rogers X10. I just picked it up yesterday, so I have done nothing to it yet. It is now almost 5:00 PM where I am and it is dead. I have not even made a call on it. I have not turned on Wifi. I have not turned on Bluetooth. The display is set at about 50% Email is not set to poll. I have surfed a bit. I have sent and received a couple of texts, and downloaded a couple of apps. Otherwise I have just explorered the phone a bit....not a lot.
I'm returning it tomorrow unless you guys have some great ideas. I'm a bit hesitant to root it and flash a ROM of any kind because of the fact that I may return it. I will gladly root, annd flash if I'm confident I can improve the battery life.....and not underclock the processor to any great extent.

What is the firmware on? If it's on R1FA014 then update it ASAP you'll get about twice the amount of battery life you currently get.

most people found that it takes about a week for the battery to be going at full capacity
and then the r2b...20 update pretty much double my battery again
with everything except gps/bt on i easily get over a day and a half , thats 3g , push email , auto screen brightness , wifi on when the screens on
your most likely using the old firmware which has issues where it uses a lot of power when on standby. with the latest official SE update my phone maybe a 1% per hour when on standby. im very impressed
i dont use anything that needs root to achieve this.
oh and if your worried about warranty then you should still have a warrant with SE if you debrand and use there own updates from SEUS . i did this myself (debranded from uk vodafone) and when i broke my usb port they swapped my phone no problems
thanks guys. I have no idea what firmware is on it. I'll check when I get home and plug it in. Do you have a link to Se's latest firmware, or to debrand it?
Dave
you don't need a link.. go into settings, about phone, software update.. update now...
or it's it's not available over the air then you should try downloading SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Software).. and follow the on screen instructions.. sometimes the update come out on one of those before the other.. also bear in mind that the new firmware hasn't completed it's rollout yet so may not be available for your region or brand yet..
Check out the other thread that lornova started which shows where, and which brands the update has reached so far.
How do I find which software version I have? I'm on Orange UK and have done run an over-air update (which did provide me with some update) but my battery life is still poor - unplugged at 10am today and it died at about 11pm.
I don;t mind de-branding or rooting my phone if that's what I need to fix the battery life. How do I go about this?
Will rooting also effectively de-brand my phone? It is difficult to see any Orange branding anyway! Would this help battery life? What other benefits does rooting have?
Sorry, I'm a bit of an Android novice (almost 18 months on WinMo 6.1!)

first thing you should do is plug into seus and update to the r2 firmware, next thing you can try is to download a home screen replacement launcher from the market as I have read that this also helps to improve battery life. I use adw.launcher, it is free and works great.
I have owned the milestone, HTC magic, nexus 1 and the x10a and all of them needed several battery cycles to break in the battery
The R2Bxxx update has changed the phone a lot in terms of performance. Im quite happy with my x10 now and I wouldnt bother rooting it. My 2cents..

please try avoid simple answers like task killer stuff, startup, etc.. I'm pretty used to all them now hence y I'm looking for a really good solution?
everything else is usually working pretty well..

Hi guys
After two weeks of trying to solve this myself I'm completely out of ideas and desperate. My phone is an international d802 running on a strong Australian 4G signal.
No matter what I do I seem to be getting around 3%/hour battery drain when the phone is idle/sleeping.
I've been analysing with betterbatterystats and wakelockdetector and my phone seems to be deep sleeping 99% of the time yet the battery still drains.
It the past couple of weeks I have experimented with Stock LG, Cleanrom, Cyanogenmod and Omni as well as a custom kernel and the drain happens on all of them.
The test I performed last night involved
*Completely wiping my phone restoring the factory image
*Running setup and only installing betterbatterystats (wakelockdetector was installed this morning after the test)
*Disabled WIFI, BT, GPS, Location Services, NFC and Sync.
*Leaving the phone on my table unplugged but not in use.
*I woke up half way through the night the check the result and when I noticed it was still draining I disable data for the 2nd half of the night.
I've attached some screenshots of what betterbatterystats and wakelockdetector had to say ignore the flight mode I only put it in this mode for the last couple of minutes.
$5 paypal to the first person that can solve this problem for me! getting a new phone doesn't count
Any and all advice would be appreciated.
More screenshots. I only installed wakelockdetector this morning after the test to check what it had to say AFAIK it should still have accurate results despite this.
What apps do you have that sync?
Ur crazy and without signal.

For this test it should have been nothing as it was a complete fresh install with no user apps other than BBS. I manually disable all of google syncing in the settings menu. I've performed similar tests in the past couple of weeks with my normal daily driver setup i.e CM with a few apps running and sync/bt/nfc/wifi/data enabled and it produces very similar results.
This test was just an absolute barebones "control" test to rule out anything I could have installed so I was shocked to still see the drain.

I'm not quite sure what you are trying to say? If you are referring to the 3hrs of no signal in BBS that would be when I disable data for the 2nd half of the test.
Ok after another night of testing I'm at a loss.
This time I tested in flight mode the whole time which should rule out any sort of radio issues.
To my shock I lost 25% overnight at 3.2%/h screenshots attached.

Looks like u have a bad battery

yeah with data provided it can only be bad battery.
reboot and check for weird percentage jumps, just for fun. They might not occur, I would return the phone for service if I were you.

No its not. I usually drop about 2% in 8hrs with LTE on, being when I am sleeping and not touching the phone of course.
Oh dear this isn't great news though on one hand I'm almost strangely relieved as I've been going crazy testing every possible solution for the past couple of weeks.
Now the bad news. My phone is a grey import (so I could get the international model before the local model was released) so warranty/service could be a massive pain if at all possible.
I'm now looking into purchasing a replacement battery. The only one's I can find are on ebay for around $60 delivered and then I'd need to pry the phone open to replace it.
Is there any way I can 100% confirm it is a faulty battery before spending more money? I do recall certain tools during my testing describing the battery health as good but I don't know how reliable they are.
Voltage leak indeed. Could well be a bad phone and boot just battery.I may lose .1-.2% overnight airplane mode. Sry bud.

Riiight. So your phone without touching it, on LTE, will last you 16 days?

I'd have to agree with the majority here and blame it on a bad battery.
See if your location options are on, if they are, turn them off and try again.

Sorry, what's this got to do with battery?

Hi guys
After two weeks of trying to solve this myself I'm completely out of ideas and desperate. My phone is an international d802 running on a strong Australian 4G signal.
No matter what I do I seem to be getting around 3%/hour battery drain when the phone is idle/sleeping.
I've been analysing with betterbatterystats and wakelockdetector and my phone seems to be deep sleeping 99% of the time yet the battery still drains.
It the past couple of weeks I have experimented with Stock LG, Cleanrom, Cyanogenmod and Omni as well as a custom kernel and the drain happens on all of them.
The test I performed last night involved
*Completely wiping my phone restoring the factory image
*Running setup and only installing betterbatterystats (wakelockdetector was installed this morning after the test)
*Disabled WIFI, BT, GPS, Location Services, NFC and Sync.
*Leaving the phone on my table unplugged but not in use.
*I woke up half way through the night the check the result and when I noticed it was still draining I disable data for the 2nd half of the night.
I've attached some screenshots of what betterbatterystats and wakelockdetector had to say ignore the flight mode I only put it in this mode for the last couple of minutes.

You way read the whole topic with feedbacks, and you will maybe understand.
some people reported a good behaviour of battery. So maybe it could help.
Thanks for all the extra advice guys

Went to try that a a couple of days ago but unfortunately the dialer code doesn't work from cyanogenmod and haven't bothered to flash back to stock to test it out again.

Yes someone actually advised that to me on the whirlpool forums earlier so I did that very thing last night.
Just turned it on and it was on 98%. Not sure what to make of the result??
Bad phone or battery is the result.
I have just bought Xperia Z3 Compact 6 - 7 days ago.
Battery time was more than perfect.
BUT my phone asked me to install 23.0.1.A.5.77 Update.
After update, battery life is very very bad now.
I did a factory reset, but nothing has changed.
Still the same update. Still terrible battery time.
Thanks
You didn't ask a question so I presume you'd like to revert this update...?
If so, grab FlashTool, install its drivers, and find an FTF of an older update, then flash it. It does not void your warranty and it does not harm your device.
Same problem here, specially when the screen is off.
Something is draining 15% of the juice per night.
- Stamina Mode on
- 3g on
- Whatsapp, Pushbullet and Timely in the "exclusion list"
I had similar issues. Also with tap2wake.
Solution: Reverted back to .98 with flashtool. Now its awesome again.
I had 0% drain overnight last night with this update

If you mean Diagnostics under 'About phone'. I went through all the tests, nothing crashes on mine? Or do do mean elsewhere?
Yes, I meant that, and then the second option "phone characteristic" or something like that, then you see how many times the phone crashed and what processes are involved

Say, how many different threads do we need to have on 23.0.1.A.5.77?
Really, this is at least the 3rd one... Please join the ones that already exist, they do address the battery "issue" as well.

Could you post links to the other threads that address the battery drain problem?
I too am having terriblr battery drain after updating to 23.0.1.A.5.77, I've tried everything; Factory Reset, Flashing back to previous builds. All to no avail.
I've installed Gsam Battery monitor and it tells me that 'Android System' is constantly draining and is at the top of the list.......
I really dont know what to do.
haven't noticed anything different really after the update. the battery life seems the same
I noticed battery drains on my Z3 after the .77 update so I did a clean reflash and after letting it settle in for a few days the battery is back to performing awesomely
I heard such battery issues and still went ahead to see does it really hungers your phone so did the update and I hardly notice any unusual battery drain.
My screen shows 45-61% battery usage and rest all fine. Dont know how to reduce that but its ok.
I get 2 1/2 days battery easily without any stamina mode activated so I guess it pretty awesome. :fingers-crossed::good:
Hi, I did not find a battery drain on my z3c but did find out something on my prev. phone, the z2, my phone went battery hungry after flashing update so I gave it 2 days to settle. The drain kept, driving me nuts. I than did a full wipe didnt help. After formating the sdcard away was the battery drain! Probably some corrupted file or sector on the SD kept the phone draining the batt.
Also seen on other phones that some malfunctioning simcard could disrupt the stability and power usage. Some operators use cheap cards that can just die on there own.

Since February update I am getting very poop battery life, usually I used to get SOT of about 6hrs but now it's dropped to only 4.5hrs.
I have accubattery installed and noticed that battery use while screen is off is too much. Yesterday during night it drained 25% in about 6-7hrs of screen off and wifi off.
Anyone else also facing this issue?
Also I noticed since the update, apps are staying in the background usually even after 1-2hrs if I didn't remove the app from recent apps it was working in background but now even after 5-10mins of not using the app it's getting removed from the background.

Install greenify. Hibernate those apps. Might be some apps running in the background without you knowing. I'm on Feb update and I'm still getting 6-7hr SOT.
This has nothing to do with a security only update. I'm pretty sure the problem is caused by one of your apps which you've recently updated.
Install GSam Battery Monitor and BetterBatteryStats and see what's wrong.
Same here and I'm losing my mind. Not sure if it really is decreased or my brain is playing tricks on me. I haven't had the phone for too long, so I only had the January update for 2 weeks or so and I really feel like the February update decreased my battery life. I have set up Greenify and Amplify. I've also disabled sensors for Google Play Services with XPrivacyLua because I noticed that the body sensor was using a lot of battery for it.
Edit: Ok, I'm pretty sure I fixed it and I have no idea how. I just know that it got fixed after a restart, even though I restarted my phone before. And I'm pretty sure it was RCSService that was eating the battery.

Hi bro, I am also having the same issue. The device is installed with same apps that was before updating. I charged the device upto 90 and went to sleep. When I woke up after 7hrs the battery is drained to 55%. Android services and android system(RCS) took the battery. Did a factory reset and no issue. Still getting along with this. Any improvements mate?
Same here, that's why I reinstalled the global rom with january update only.

1. Warranty untouched because bootloader will be re-locked.
2. Battery drain fixed on my a1 with retro to January patch.

Yes, you will be able to get de OTAs because you are installing the official ROM, and bootloader will be automatically re-locked by the Mi Flash tool.

same here, i got 1% discharge in 6 minutes when i was in January update, but after i upgraded to feb security update, the phone discharges 1% in about 4 minutes. Yes, but the charging speed remains at 1% per minute.
I have to charge it twice, whereas a single charge lasted for a day. . i will wait for the March update

If this is an app - it wolud be the update of it only...
Facing same issues. Dropped from 7.5h of screen-on time to 3.75h after February update. I wonder if it's time to move to LineageOS with MiNT kernel
