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

I don't think it will be a great deal. Maybe hardware faulty

Been waiting 6 weeks already for these promised updates. Being on b110 is probably why my battery just drains away during standby.

I used Funkyhuawei. European version.

Need emui 4.

Hi guys, upgraded mate 8 to nougat but buttery drain is huge. Downgraded back to what turned out to be emui 4.1 and it's the same thing. Battery drain is still quite huge.
does anyone have a copy or link to L29C636B320 or the last emui 4 Asian spec that works?

how about trying to determine what the actual cause for the battery drain is before flashing around like a crazy person?

i have to agree..don't rollback untill you investigate. i am on latest mate 8 firmware and have no battery issue.
about 2 days of battery with 4g mobile data enabled.

In a way you probably have a point but I'm simply following instincts here. I do believe it's the firmware itself but not sure how.
Ive rebranded to c636 emui 4.1 and it's a little better but still draining. To put that in perspective, I'm losing 18% per night with phone turned off. This never ever happened with emui 4. Infact on emui 4 with heavy usage i.e phone calls, music player on, Bluetooth on and a good 2-3 hours of gaming, internet browser and msging, I was still getting 2 days usage before getting to 20% battery. I had Kernal auditor but no other app to adjust battery performance.
Might sound silly but what's the best way to determine whats causing drain? I don't have any tools apart from SRK tool and Huawei extractor.

by "phone turned off" u mean u completely switched off the phone? as in power / shutdown? or just airplane mode?
if its the former, this points towards the battery itself, not the software. how old is your phone?

If you loose 18% with the phone switched off....well i think your battery is dying.

I've been thinking about that but I'm still not convinced. I might take the phone back to original c185 spec and see what happens.
Besides, last night it was fully charged at 100%, just plugged in the charger and it's showing 78%.

Post your issues found in the MIUI 10.3.6.0 update.

Hi, I got MIUI Global Stable 10.3.6.0 update yesterday in my Redmi Note 7 (lavender) (Model : M1901F7G) and mine is 4GB RAM & 64GB ROM variant.
I noticed more battery draining compared to the previous version MIUI Global 10.3.5.0 Stable. Anybody else noticed that?
Also I got a new charging animation and dark mode in settings > display.
Thanks ?

I have also got it, and have noticed more battery draining, other then that, I'm realy satisfied with the update.
Realy love the dark mode

Yes, the dark mode is very interesting but the battery draining is very very worst though ?
If possible, go to feedback app and catch a log and send it to Xiaomi. I also reported them. Hope the problem will be fixed in next upcoming update.

v20 Pie

Does anyone have any information on the progress of the v20 pie update?
I'm on a vs995 patiently waiting for the update but seeing no light..
Is the pie update just for the korean models or will it be for others in the future??
Thanks.

I never really expected it to come to the carrier version's of the v20 (vs995,H918,H910), but they could have at least did it for the US unlocked version US996.

I really hope it does.. Since others have been saying it improves battery life.. Oreo has really done a number on my battery.. My OEM battery gets roughly an hour under light load, I got to the point of where i made my own battery for my phone, i took the board from an old v20 battery and attached a 7000 mAh Li-ion battery to it to get at least 9 hours of heavy load.. i'd really love to see better life out of the battery and hopefully better system performance too

that is really off i get like 8 hours of medium use out of mine light use it goes 12 hours i just have a standard 4200 mAh battery and im on OREO...

I have it on my F800K, it's working fairly great. I even managed to root it.
We know that it's possible to crossflash with LGUP developer edition. If someone that is confortable with all of that (and knows how to go back if a brick happens) is motivated to test that out, it'd be neat.
I can't since I only own a Korean one.

Both of my H910 lasted all day on Oreo

And we're even better after getting the perfine 4200 batteries.

Oreo came several months after it was supposed to. I'm giving it until summer 2020. If not by then, then I'll throw my hands up and say that it won't come.

It's a fairly involved process. You have to downgrade to Nougat using LGUP, root using DirtySanta and then upgrade back up to Pie without flashing aboot and abootback (using LGUP "developer edition" in PARTITION DL mode). Finally you have to flash the correct Kernel.
Only issue so far is that the camera can't autofocus anymore. I do not take pictures with that phone so I don't care, but could be a deal breaker for you.
I'm not sure yet if it's a Kernel issue or a root issue. I need to re-downgrade and upgrade again without root to make sure the camera works with the same Kernel but without root.
I might make a detailed guide when I get the chance.

They have a new battery out that is a 4380 milliamp hour battery. I'm using it now with Alpha Oreo 1.3.1 with MK 2000 2.2 kernel. Using greenify. And a fresh install a few days ago. Battery life looks even better than it was.

i just got a perfine battery first 100% to 18% charge lasted me almost 2 full days

Do you have a link to the new Perfine battery please? I stocked up on their 4200mah's - I have 3 in rotation and 3 new ones in the drawer - I'll keep using the V20 for watching media while travelling when I eventually get a new daily driver. I get 6-8 hours SOT over 36-48 hours on Nougat.

I jumped from the V20 to the A71 . I added a 4000 battery in the V20 , but she is stock still on 8... ill see what plops down but its a good back up phone !! still works fine ..

I normally charge to 85% with charge limiter. That generally gets me through from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. normally about 20% by the time I go to sleep

Need help with this issue of phone shutting down at 20%.

Hello Everyone,
It seems like my phone is having this issue for a long time. I started noticing it after installing latest stock Oreo rom rooted version from this page
(https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/stock-rom-lg-v20-h990ds-h990ds20a-idn-t3890697)
My phone always seem to die at 20% battery. I have tried replacing battery many times but it doesn't seem to work. Is there any chance it may be this custom kernal's issue/misbehaving or is my phone's motherboard faulty. ? Is there anyone else facing same issue ? Please help

I had the same problem it is most of the time the battery that starts to degrade and when it hits 20 per cent has way too little voltage to keep the phone running. Try going back to full stock no root on nougat not oreo then root it again and try installing another H990DS rom I am using the stock flashable oreo I forgot the link but it is the Indian variant

Thank you friend for replying. I will try flashing stock nougat today or tomorrow using lgup tool and let you know. So just one question, did your issue of phone shutting down at 20% got resolved by changing battery or flashing stock oreo ?

In my experience, never use OEM battery. most of the time those are 2000mah crap.
so, in my opinion, better get unofficial 3200mah or 4100mah or larger battery from reputable battery company on your country or import perfine/shenmz/other reputable ones (look on lgv20 subreddit for more info if importing) if possible.
