Battery drains very quickly

Hi all
I noticed that the battery runs out quickly.
It holds only 12 hours in normal use.
While I was at 48 hours with my Huawei mate 8
Is there a solution to this problem?
I have attached the phone version if it can help.
Wait bro, your firmware version is outdated, latest Lollipop firmware is 2.20.40.184, but yours is still running 2.20.40.90, update your firmware first then compare your battery stats from your previous firmware version.
How long is your SoT(Screen on Time)? Well, on a daily usage my Zenfone 2 lasts for up to 6hrs SoT(with wifi browsing, some gaming, 2g/3g texting including standby for almost 12hrs as well) so i think your experiencing average for this kind of handset.
Also note that you've posted on a wrong section, this thread should be posted on the "Q&A, Help, Troubleshooting section".
This phone generally has **** battery life for majority of people, there are every few people who see any decent battery life (like above). There are no solutions for good battery life for this phone.

I wouldn't recommend somebody (even less a new XDA user) to flash a beta firmware. Only the user itself should decide if he /she really wants to try beta software.

Comparing this phone's battery to a Huawei battery is like comparing a Prius to a Tesla. I can go 3 days on my Huawei Ascend Mate 2 but it's a 4000mAh battery and a Snapdragon chip compared to a 3000mAh battery and an Intel chip. The ZF2 battery will never get better unfortunately
I was getting some serious battery drainage on stock rom - I upgraded to the CM13 ROM with Android 6.0.1 - Set it on Root and installed Greenify + Xposed Framework - Smart Booster - Battery Doctor - Configured them all and keep my brightness on low when in doors and automatic when outside. My battery seems to be holding much better now. I haven't used that Stock rom Beta release of 6.0.1 yet so I'm not sure if that'll help. Good luck!
P.S - I only installed the mini version of GApps.

Check for the running apps and disable those that are not of use to you.. There are apps that run in the background, just run those that you think you will be using always.

Disable touch gestures, the ones that let's you double tap to wake it up, I disabled mine and during the night, with wifi on, it only used 1% battery.
Also, disabling LED notifications would help.
To replace the double tap to lock screen I use Greenify's widget, need to find a way to let me wake it up by volume buttons too.
Any other battery saving tips would be great.

But still, that's very good. I probably won't get this low because I have crappy reception at home, but I'll check it anyway.
zenfone 2 is best for performance lag free most of the time .....but battery life sucks.... and about that ferrari and prius thing... my friends sony xperia z series especialy z ultra has awesome battery life it is also quad core processor phone ...it is also a beast phone ...but there stamina mode saves a lot of battery ... 8 to 10 hr SOT is normal for z ultra..... so clearly power managment is very poor for zenfone 2. i am using marshmellow cm 13 .. greenify... .. overnight drop is 3 to 4 %... but as soon as i start using it battery starts to drain quickly..... i have searched whole xda forum.. but everybody is talking about wakelocks, thats fine but during actual use also it is consuming a lot of battery....i am tired of searching

Is Downgrade Possible on N910C?

Hello,
So I've been wanting to downgrade back to android 4.4.4 mainly for better battery performance, because ever since it went 5.0.1 and up the battery went downhill fast. However, I've been reading that the N910C got a locked bootloader after android 5.1.1, is there anyway to downgrade the bootloader so I could downgrade to android 4.4.4?
Thank you in advance!

Make sure the new battery is purchased direct from Samsung or a reputable carrier, or get a Powerbear or Anker. Lots of fakes/cheap rubbish about.
I'm on Marshmallow and get 5-6 hours screen on time with WiFi and Bluetooth on all day. 6 month old battery from Samsung UK.

Brand new OEM battery and believe me when I say I tried tu use the damn phone in a most efficient way possible, even airplane mode when not in use, same crap, terrible battery life. When I bought it couple months after release, with 4.4.4 the battery was just amazing, like 10-12 hours of screen on time, now I barely get 2 hours with EVERYTHING on power saving mode and MAX EFFICIENCY use battery wise...

I donno about n910c but i have n910t and i tried every single rom kk lollipop mm maximum screen on time i get 5 hours on kitkat and mm 4.5 hours and the worse is lollipop 3 hours.
I went all the way from 4.4.4 to 6.0.1 update by update as they were rolled out, every single update it got worse and worse, 5.0.1 was just obnoxiously terrible, then 5.1.1 kinda bit better compared to 5.0.1 but still crap, 6.0.1 brought in Doze, but that didn't seem to affect anything too much, so pretty much from 5.0.1 forward, battery is just stupidly terrible, I charge the phone 3 times a day on average...

Did you guys flash with odin or did you OTA the N update? If you did OTA I would try totally wiping the phone (factory reset) and then Odin the latest N firmware. There are links for the N firmware in the guides and news section. I usually get 6 to 7.5 hours of SOT on N. I use T-Mobile firmware on my ATT device, wifi tethering works on the TMO firmware with the ATT unlimited data plan [emoji4]

Everyone says I have a battery draining app and I know i do not as I had all the same apps when i first got this phone (ATT s7 FLAT) when the battery was great. The battery has been worse since the first update. I know batteries degrade but not this much. I factory reset and download all my apps again and for one or two days my battery is better. This phone either has a bad battery or the people working on the updates are just not caring as they just let the battery drain. Down to %50 after 30mins of screen usage of just Sync with reddit and 5 hours standby, Android System and OS are draining tons.

I noticed faster battery drain after upgrading to 7.0 but after agressively disabling unused apps with Package Disabler Pro and switching to a black wallpaper and lockscreen my battery life improved noticeably (as well as performance). But if you don't see any improvement with these tweaks then it is possible that you have a bad battery.
I've had an issue where I put my phone on vibrate and an hour later it goes back to sound and vibrate.

P10 Plus battery life concern

Hi everyone.
I'm interested in buying the p10 plus. The only problem is that i am worried about the battery life. I have heard negative things about the battery life. Currently i am using s7 edge which gets good battery life. I average about 6 hours screen on time with my s7 edge. What i have read online mostly states the p10 plus averaging around 4 hours screen on time. If anyone is coming from the s7 edge please compare the battery life and for those who aren't can you tell me what you average on screen on time.
Thank you from now
Dunno I used a Z3C and a Note 4. The P10 Plus performs really well, and you should never forget the ultra-super-fast charging which trumps Samsung in every way. tl;dr: I would not be worried. It also uses no PWM (no flicker like Samsung), and it's an LCD, so no burn-in like AMOLED. Best of all worlds.
It's too early to say something as I have it for few days yet, but battery seems good so far. During one heavy usage day I got 4h15min screen on time, but used navigation quite a lot. At least it compares to my Nexus 6p back in the good days. Hope to get it back from RMA soon But overall P10 Plus made an impression to me.
If you guys post screen on times it would be highly appreciated
5-6 hours DOT are very well possible.
Yes 5-6 hours sot,with 1 hour gaming and 1 hour browsing,some YouTube, Facebook, WhatsApp.
Almost 5 hours DOT and still 37% battery left, after mostly browsing, watching YouTube and some TV shows

Battery life seems better after I flashed Nathan's 3.0 kernel!
My battery life is quite a bit worse. Nothing has changed in my use of apps. On 8.1 July I would have just under 50% battery remaining. I use a slow charge dock at night next to my bed with Sleep as Android running, and back to 100% in the morning.
Now on 9.0 I am at less that 30% end of day, with the slow charge dock sometimes it just maintains charge, but often it decreases. This morning I was at 12% with 24% showing last night at bedtime.
When I plug into the dock, I check that charging shows on the lock screen and led light. I manually turn of always on display and enable immersive display with tiles in the pull down menu to insure the screen being blacked out at night, even though Sleep as Android runs.

My Battery life has gone for worse after installing P all fresh.. Battery life was good when i was on beta, once i moved to Final release of P and wiped everything for fresh start.. battery life been worse.. need to charge battery every 8-9 hours.. usage is same as i had earlier . I have even uninstalled many apps which were present on 8.1 and P beta...
Pretty disappointing.. Not sure if its only mine Pixel 2 XL.

Battery is def worse for me. I did OTA at first and then clean install. Same result. My battery life is better in 8.1 with always in display vs 9.0 WITHOUT always in display. Idle drain is worse also on 9.0 for me. I downgraded back to 8.1
Battery life for me has been better overall as well. Not a dramatic increase, as it was already pretty good on O, but it is noticeable.
Battery is not good for me on 9.0 why are some getting good and others not? Same hardware and software?

Hardware yes, software no, we all use different apps.
I'm trying to track it down, but the Battery section is showing nothing. I just installed BBS and granted the adb permissions hoping that will show me something.
And even if two people have the exact same apps installed, everybody has different usage of each app.

How are you getting this kind of battery. I used to get that on my galaxy S8+ but can't get 8 hrs sot on my pixel 2xl. I usually get maybe 7 max. Any tips?
Im not seeing any difference with the new feature adaptive battery, its neither worse or better
So in other words... Some ppl the worse than before, some better than, and others are getting about the same, all to varying degrees... That's nuts for real...
