I have lenovo a6000 1gb model and i have noticed that its signal reception is quite weak as compared to other phones. Even sometimes, when the wifi signal is average, the wifi will disconnect automatically and search for networks for a while and will connect again. This happens randomly and more at times while playing games which need internet. I am using cm13 build 2 by ed300 without any custom kernel.
next update there will be option for no optimization it will increase wifi signal but effect battery while using wifi
Thank you so much sir..you have turned this unusable brick to a fast and fluid phone. I have been using your rom from cm12.1...i must say that your cm 13 much better ..no lags at all.. Just dt2w and s2w causes lock screen freeze i hope you will fix that in next update
And please increase the wifi signal strength ....i dont have any problem with the battery backup in your rom....i get a full day usage and charging completes 0 to 100 in just 90 mins...so please look into the wifi..thanks
What is no optimization ?
I m using ED300 CM 13, what is no optimization ? Can u explain me ?

I thought I would share my recent findings with all of you as it appears battery consumption is a hot topic. First of all I've never had a probem with battery consumption on my DHD, I've always been happy and I'm still happy. This is just an observation.
In my house I have a good wifi signal everywhere except in my bedroom, when I'm lying in bed it can lose connection every now and then, this has not really been a problem until 2.3. It's as simple as this, if I leave wifi on with a fully charged battery next to my bed the next morning there is 10-15% battery left, if I turn wifi off then the next morning there will be 75-85% battery left.
If I'm at work with wifi on all day even though it's not connected to a wifi connection when I go home there is still at least 60% left. Clearly if you leave wifi on connected to a network and the signal drops out every now and then or if the signal is poor expect your battery to be exhausted in no time. Leaving wifi on is not the problem, well in my case it isn't, it all depends on the signal strength of what you connecting to.
Same here . and if you have a good wifi signal the battery life is much much way better than using 3g connection

This is normal behaviour, when wifi is on it will try to reconnect if it loses network, hence in your case it is continually reconnecting to the wifi and draining the battery, if this is a new issue with 2.3 it may be curable by flashing one of the older radios as it may be an issue with the new radio?
same probllem
i have the same problem with my DHD, i have stock rooted rom 2.3.3, and my bettery is draining at an alarming rate, cause it always trying to reconnect to wifi network. but the main prb is that wifi signal is strong, as my laptop has excellent signal, but my phone is strange, sometimes it has full signal, sometimes it drops and completely disconnects from wifi. as i move it arround a bit it reconnects. if i flash an older radio will it resolve this prb? and how do i flash an older radio?

You need to be Radio S-OFF to flash the radio, but if you didn't have the problem previously just try downgrading with one of the RUU's listed here
which will re-flash the older radio which should put you back to before the upgrade, a work round for now is to turn wi-fi off when not actually using it at least for now. BTW this problem doesn't appear to be present in the GB custom rom's so must be some tweak by HTC that has gone awry.
i've searched trough the forum and found some answers. htc made gb drop wifi connection when the signal drops bellow -88dcbl. cusom roms have a drop limit of 101dcbl. i was on stock (only rooted) GB 2.3.3 . I've downloaded kingdoms custom rom v1.7 intalled it but i get blank screen, only wallpaper, and can't get any further. like unlocking screen and getting in to the menu. would you recommend a custom rom that's most stable for DHD? btw my phone is rooted and all OFF. i flashed like... 4 radios all the same problem, so... stock roms are no good.

Do not need to change a custom ROM, and there is a wifi connection fix (decrease the drop threshold) flashable patch zip.
Sorry I have forgotten where is it, but I think you can search and find it among the forum.

CM 7 all the way for me, and if you must have sense ARHD is supposedly very good
Use wifi timeout app so phone can sleep properly, without significant drain.

i use coredroid v7.0 now... and it's the best rom till now, i've tested 80% or custom roms on this forum. it's the most stable and complete rom. i'm sticking to it.
Hi,
Recently upgraded a T-Mobile HU carrier locked device to Marshmallow. Ever since the calls/cell standby is on the top of the battery usage list; the cell standby with around 12-14%, and the calls go up to 50%ish depending on the amount of calls. Tried to read up and saw a couple of suggestions like disable VoLTE, Wifi calls, but none of them are in the menu (see screenshots). Also found the suggestions about clearing the cache, did that one yesterday, now it seems a bit better regarding drain during sleep (only lost 9% overnight opposed to 20% earlier), but the cell standby still on the top of the list (see screenshot) with good signal. Is there any possibility to check for these options without breaking the warranty (so preferrably without rooting/custom rom etc)?

Hello,
I am experiencing exactly the same problem with my G928F. I have tried to flash several Marshmallow ROMs yet the issue persists.
The moment I switch to mobile data the Cell Standby drain begins. At the end of the day I barely have 20 % battery left with cell standby on top.
However when I use the WiFi(which disables the mobile data) the battery life is a lot better and I end up with more then 50 % at the end of the day.
I guess there are some problems with the radio/software in that Marshmallow. If that continues I will try to roll back to Lollipop.
Hi there,
Thanks for the feedback. Altho I must admit that since I upgraded to MM, if I dont touch my phone at all (mobile, wifi, bluetooth all turned on), battery holds in standby for 4 days, whats not bad. But if I dont do anything that should drain the battery like web browsing, video watching or games (what I dont do anyways), just do some calls during the day, the battery drops like hell, I'm on 20% by the evening. Cellular service stuff should consume much less battery in my opinion...
best,
Balage
Same issue, On the three network
Same problem here. Cell Standby is on top.
Anyone got any fix to this?
I have contacted Samsung Support and they told me to send the phone to their repair shop.. WTF ? I am sure that is a software issue as it is not only my phone and I doubt they are going to fix it. They will just waste my time...
One more: same problem for me (using TIM in Italy with an unbranded device). I will try keeping the wifi connection on (I usually don't use the wifi connection in my office) just to check if even for me this is the main cause of the battery drain I'm experiencing with Marshmallow! I'm currently using the French stock ROM (PC3) which seems to be the most recent version, but still experiencing short battery life

Of course it is not a device hardware problem, given that with Lollipop for all of us it was not like this!
I have the same issue, I simply turn DATA off to get rid of "cell standby drain". I use "wifi" most of the times (office and home) for my data usage, only switch on network data if I am out and just to check for updates and disable it in a minute or so.
Have somebody tried the new UK version rel. PDA PD2?
Just released last night...
Might this new release have sorted out this battery drain issue?

Same problem here, Optus in Australia. No 4G connectivity, massive battery drain (only when not on wifi). What I have discovered is that the mobile network is continually disconnecting and re-connecting and that is pretty much sucking the battery aswell as rendering data on the phone useless. It cannot connect to 4g, even if the signal strength is 100%. SMS take a long time to send (i guess they go in teh short time it connects. Phone calls either fail competely or like yesterday I had one where I could hear them but they couldn't hear me.
I went into an Optus store, but of course they just want to sell phones. They said I could put it in to them under warranty and would be without a phone for 10 days+! Or could go to Samsung store, which I have an appointment for tomorrow. I don't hold out much hope on that.
Custom firmware is not an option as I need to be able to connect to my work WiFi and that uses vmware air-watch and it doesn't work with rooted devices or custom roms.
Is there a way to rollback to lollipop without losing the ability to use air-watch?
Hi
haw are you
I have a note 4 N910C , the phone works good but when i turn on the internet he became very hot specially in the screen , there is overheating in the screen after using the internet only otherwise he's good , i was using android 5 and i updated it to 6 and the problem still happened .
It seems that you have low signal from your operator, this causes the phone to heat while it's trying to communicate.
the signal is very good , it's H+
I tried a lot of rom's, from Android 4 to 7. A lot of them are great. The best rom's that works for me are Lollipop rom's. They are fast, stable. Such as:
cm-12.1-20151026-UNOFFICIAL-ms013g-ver_AIO-3.zip
cm-12.1-20151107-UNOFFICIAL-ms013g.zip
cm-12.1-20160613-UNOFFICIAL-ms013g.zip
The only bug that I have with all lollipop rom's is that, wifi will go to sleep if I loose range on the wifi and come back. If I leave my home, out of wifi range, and come back. Phone will automatically connect to my wifi, but it will fall a sleep after 1min or so. So I need to restart my phone, phone will connect automatically to my wifi again and it will stay connected until I leave my home again. So, I need to restart my phone every time when I'm connecting on same wifi.. or, my wifi will fall a sleep in the stand by.
This is the only issue with lollipop. 4, 6 and 7 rom's dot have these problems.
Is there any way to fix this ?
Use motion base rom its awesome and stable.. im using it for 1 year.. plus it got the highest antutu bench mark i test all rom its score is 28000+ the other rom in 24000 below... the rom has no fc and no bugs ;all sim are working properly and as well as gps...
Im using Noble rom 2.1 rooted with magisk...
Since the first release of oreo I started using the rom as a daily driver, later on paired with a good kernel it had some good perfomance
But after some days of using the rom i started to notice a huge battery drain caused by the Mobile network standby process?
My battery was old (OEM 2014 battery) so i decided to revert back to lineageOS just after a couple of days where I haven't had any issues with that mobile network standby
Now I'm really curious what is causing this issue,drain because I am using the phone on the same settings as on 7.1 nougat, I am living in a country where all networks run on 3G,H+,2G etc. so no 4G if this can be a cause
Changed the network modes many times and tested throughout the days but there was no sucess the drain was still persist, tried updating,downgrading bootloaders swithing modems but again no sucess
If there, in the world of android is any solution, here is the thread to discuss about this issue. :fingers-crossed:
I've wondered this too. I've been running los15 on my g900v , I rooted and boot the first ROM that would work without having or remembering todomuch, I ran the first custom kernal I could find via google, and ran whatever was noted as the latest Verizon modems. its like right off the bat, smooth , consistent battery life and nice. Then the next day I noticed things would crash, my Bt temperamental at best and restarted it just to get by. if I have sync on at home, WiFi off, it just chills , if I turn sync off and drive around town, my battery life gets eaten by the unknown. I pulled some logs to see whats up with my BT but haven't got around to it yet. But my battery too is old (I literally found my s5 in the trash) and I run weird processes and tweak settings all the time just to mess with it, so that could be it to. If I see anything weird I'll let you know.
I'm struggling with this issue for months, since the first port of an Oreo custom ROM (LOS and RR) for the Galaxy A3 Duos (my device) started being developed.
From the beginning I had this problem, and what, since then, puzzles me the most is the fact that only some of us, flashing the same ROM in the same device, experience the issue. Whenever I flash any of those ROMs, even before installing any user apps (or when running in safe mode), the drain is there, which leads me to think that the culprit must be some setting: not an app, because I have none installed; not the ROM itself, because not everybody has this problem.
Unfortunately there seems to be no developers looking into this bug.
For the sake of information, I've observed two things that should help to narrow down the issue; or maybe not.
First, all the devices affected, as far as I've searched, are double SIM.
Second, the Mobile Network Standby (MNS from now on) drain is narrowy connected with the Bluetooth drain (which "also" occurs in Oreo). I've experienced the following: If, after a full charge, I don't switch on Bluetooth at all, then what drains my battery (according to Advanced Battery Usage information) is MNS. However, if I switch bluetooth on -even if only for one minute- then what apparentlyh drains my battery is Bluetooth, at the same speed as MNS did before switching bluetooth on.
Funny enough, the battery use info reports zero minutes activity for both Bluetooth and MNS. But how can a process which runs zero minutes drain 50% of the battery?? I'm afraid that the battery use information isn't reliable. But then that's very bad news, since, in such case, it might well happen that the real juice sucker is neither MNS nor Bluetooth!! We might be dealing with a "ghost" here, since we can't even trust the battery use information provided by the OS.
If someone has something with which to contribute to this research, or any ideas, please comment.
I'm having the same trouble on android 9 betas, even better, my phone gets without signal during those times and there's nothing I could do but rebooting the phone.
How can we help solve this? it looks like it's annoying a lot of people now
