[Q] Huge Battery Drain

Hi,
since a week or so my u8800 suffers from a huge battery drain.
Today i just got 10hours out of it and almost did nothing. (4min. phone call/ 10messages/ max. 10min surfing)
The last 10% of battery was gone in 30 seconds.
It all started last week when my phone was on stock 2.2. Then i updated to the latest stock 2.3.5, but still the same problem.
Model number : u8800
Android version : 2.3.5
base band version : 404020
Kernel version : 2.6.35.7-perf [email protected]#1
Build number : U8800V100R001C00B528G001
I also wanted to calibrate the battery, but i can't root the phone. Tried every program out there
Anyone got the same problem or has a solution ?

Hello Kawadude,
I use superoneklick and it works fine to root the device. Hier ist the how to, what you must do before use superonklick:
- Dial * # * # 2846579 # * # *
- Go to projectmenu, background settings, log settings, log switch and set Log on
- Reboot phone
- Set USB debugging on
- Run superonklick http://depositfiles.com/files/n0dcxce3t or http://shortfuse.org/
Hope it helps

Already tried that without a result.
I also tried DooMLoRD v4, Unlock Root and One-click Root.
Since i installed the official 2.3.5 i can't root my device annymore. On stock 2.2 this wasn't a problem.

Hello, do you keep wi fi enabled at all times? i noticed my battery drains increased greatly when i leave my wifi on 24/7

No, wifi is only enabled when I'm at home.
A couple of weeks ago the battery life was just fine. (With the same usage)

Close any application in your pc that might try to connect with an android device (like huawei's or Asus PC Sync, etc). Those applications use the adb driver and block superoneclick. Check if windows recognize your device and install it properly. Hum... That's all I can think of... ;-)

Try this. I did hear that this last release from huawei (B528) couldn't be/was really hard to get rooted. I haven't tried this, just found it. Credit to @Igory0k.

Didn't work for me.
The phone rebooted and freezed at the huawei logo.
The only thing i didn't find is step 6: "6.log setting-dump & log-on"

You have to do it, rooting apps need that option
And launcher apps etc. don't install them, your battery won't drain Uninstall unnecessary apps too

[Guide] Ultimate RAM and Battery management for All Rooted Xperia Devices

HeyZZ!!!
If You have a successfully rooted device., so take its advantages. Start hardcore RAM and Battery management.
Today I am writing a guide for advanced battery and RAM management. If you like it or help you please HIT thanks button, your 1 HIT encourage me to write more.
Writing reasons
There are thousands of battery saver and ram booster apps are available in market but they all just do similar work
- All Battery Savers : Turn off WiFi,BT,Decrease brightness
We all know WiFi,BT ,Brightness consumes power so why use?
- All RAM boosters : Race with running apps/tasks STOP...after 10 sec START again STOP..
Starting Closing consume more resources(CPU+RAM) then running + more battery power so why use ?
In single word they worthless...
Results of this post
I have Xperia T2 Ultra Daul running with Lollipop. Device's both SIMs are always active and installed about 180+ User apps.
- Free RAM in my Device is 510+MB out of 862MB and consumes 1-2% or less then 1% battery in a night.
- Device never legs.
So I decide to tell about it to all Xperia users....
Requirements
Rooted device with full admin rights (r/w).
Complete System Backup for good confidence.
Android version : JB, Kitkat, Lollipop
Dry fruits and a glass of chilled almond shake.
Each step is independent so follow as your desire, but remember group of fingers is Clenched fist. Try to follow all for best result.
Steps :
1.Remove all bloatware and unused systems apps using System App Remover

## Never add Device manager, servicely ,trickster mod

If you are a not very hardcore gamer or user and your device has above then 1.2 GHz CPU then this setting is mind blowing for your battery backup.
Go to menu (Left top corner)
> General
>General> CPU Frequency Control
>Frequency Lock ON (Save: Tick on Top) : Try again if failed
> Select Min 384000 or around this range (don't worry about low becoz Greenify and Servicely running so less RAM Less CPU Requirement)

5. Cache management
=> Cachemate => Download
Download and make a shortcut on desktop to easy remember and use Cachemate once at start of the day.

MAN, THANK YOU!
I was looking for a list of apps i could safely uninstall on my T2 Ultra Dual, and you have the same device as mine.
I actually have one question about step 4. To change settings on kernel my Bootloader has to be unlocked, right?
Cause I'm only rooted and I'm not sure if changing this settings will have some real effect.
Anyway, good job.

huawei p8 lite theme issue

when i open Default themes app by Huawei P8 Lite (it says no themes in featured tab and all other tabs)
only already downloaded 4 themes are there.
I don't know whats wrong.
Please help me out here....

Hello,
First thing first check your internet connection. For some users it didn't work on wifi and only on data etc.
If it doesn't help -> in Settings clear cache for this app.
Regards
//update
Still you can download themes from the xda and install them by putting @ HWthemes folder.

i have cleared the cache of Themes App, and connected to WIFI and also checked on DATA 4G.
But issue still remains.
it was easy to download themes from this app instead of Downloading and putting the theme in themes folder.
i hope some this issue can be fixed....

Can you check your Firmware region?
Go to Dialer and enter *#*#2846579 #*#* and then go to menu point 3. (Network Information Query) and then to 4. (Vendor Country Info)
For some reason your Firmware might not offer themes in your Region
If thats alright you probably have to download themes manually.

You are right | But can i change it?

I checked it. and it says
Vendor: hw
Country: meafnaf
Themes were working fine and i was able to download the themes from Themes App.
i think i tried updating it once on Android 6.0 by downloading the update.app file from XDA forum and it gave error while installing it. then i restarted it. After that it started to give this issue.
I just tried Factory Reset but still the Vendor information stays as is. Is there any way to fully reset my phone?

This worked perfectly! Apparently the update broke some stuff.

Late to the party but this also fixed the problem for me. Thanks, crayonyes!

Android System - Excessive Battery consumption on MIUI 11.0.4

Hello all,
Maybe somebody can help me here.
I've recently updated my device into the MIUI 11.0.4.0 (QFJEUXM) rom . Official OTA update by Xiaomi,
I've noticed an increase in battery consumption ( mainly caused by android system app around 25%).
Somebody with similar issue ? is there a way to rollback safely into a previous version ? My previous version 11.0.3.0 was working just fine... I'm actually regretting having updated my phone.
Kudos!

Yes, many users have the same problem, including me.

Well, I feel my Mi9T has strange battery consumption through all the roms.
I'm now on custom rom with 11.0.4 vendor. Some times it uses more than 1%/h while deep dozing.
Screen on time is estimated to be around 8h, is this too short?

I'm getting sick of the android system drain. Does anyone know if xiaomi.eu rom any better? Is it worth flashing?
