[\SOLVED\] [Discussion] Possible solution to the battery drain (SIM) - Sony Xperia X Guides, News, & Discussion

This came up to my mind just now, after all this time, but I'm not certain it is causing the problem since I haven't tried it out (like I said, came to my mind just now,) There is a poll up there, if you are suffering from battery drain please say so.
So here we go.. my phone XX with the latest poison rom is experiencing a weird battery drain that doesn't seem to get fixed by doing anything. I recently stumbled upon an article, about the problems of cutting your SIM card. Well, I did cut my SIM card instead of buying a new one. According to the article, the problematic SIM card could lead to battery drainage. This is my last guess, I don't know how to explain it otherwise. What are your thoughts on this people?
If you are experiencing a battery drain, is your SIM card cut or brand new?

i`ve got battery drain on stock rom (7.1.1) and my sim card is brand new.

Thanks for feedback. Any idea why?

Only solution is to replace the baterry, i've got 4h30min screen on time, the others xperia x users got about 6h -7h SOT

But the phone was brand new and the drainage existed, why would I replace the battery?

as if faulty?

I heard that other xperia x users faceing the same problem with the baterry, some models come with fantastic baterry life and others with poor baterry life, i strongli sugest that you replace the baterry.

That is very dissapointing. Sony releasing faulty devices, so it's 50/50 if you get a poor battery or a display with backlight bleed. Maybe that's why they discontinued it.

i found out that logd causes the battery drain, renaming (and disabling it) in TWRP made it much better...

Everyone. debunked. New Sim changes nothing

Okay, I did what you said through root explorer because my outdated TWRP could not find the file. Thanks for your help, hope its solved

this cant be done while the device is running...
just mount system partition in TWRP and it will be visible...

? I visited a xda page talking about the logd file and the battery drain , and it said it is perfectly fine to do it using root explorer and reboot it

how is your battery life now,with the logs disabled?

It is noticeably better, but it seems like there is something still holding it back, I can't figure out the problem.

how much screen on time get you with normal use ?
i have instaled battery care and now i`m getting over 5h of screen on time.

[Xperia X F5121] Incredible Battery Life on Nougat (Concept 38.3.A.0.107)

Just wanted to point out, without evidence yet, that battery life on Nougat (Concept update 38.3.A.0.107) is amazing. I'm talking about days here.
¿Anyone else experiencing this?
As for the evidence, I will charge my phone to 100% today and upload a battery life screencap as soon as I can.
What? I need that firmware! My battery goes from 80 to 70 in 5 minutes On screen time!!!
Hi,
Just a quick update with a screenshot. Just 2h short of a day with 14% to go, the mostly horizontal part of the graph happened when I was asleep.
SOT for that is 3h13m

Um... ok?
Maybe I'm coming from a terrible phone and this seems very good then.
Nevertheless, I can tell you for sure that my phone isn't dropping 10% batt in 5min SOT.

well now that I have applied some fixes and calibration it isn't in mine either. I am not sure really, but 3 hours of SOT is just not good, and Im coming from a bad phone too
I'm thinking x-reality might be disabled afteryour update. My screen takes up 30 percent battery with x-reality on.
I never havwe x reality on.. seriously yoy think I didnt check it or what

With poison i have more than 6 hours SOT. Without any mods. With the original rom i had 5 and a half hours SOT.
I dont understand.. my phone is brand new, I have optimasations, underclock and everything except wifi is off.. what am I doing wrong? I have also calibrated the battery, full discharge ans full charge, its not any app im using since with stock and. nothing. installed battery runs the same.. Also the camera is worse after the drm fix than before drm fix (too much noise) the hell is wrong with my phone??

you too are in concept rom? because that is standard now battery going way too fast, try installing gsam app and give permissions via adb so you can check which app is consuming too much power, i have done it but i still can't figue out what is causing it

No, I am using the poison nougat rom. Actually, I have been using gsam for 2 weeks I think, just like you I cannot find the problem. My SOT is 3 hours, 4 hours at best. And keep in mind that is with very simple usage , not any intense apps or games

Every phone has these kind of problems
My battery life is shocking. I do use my device a lot so it's understandable.
There is battery tweaks out there to help people with problems. Someone will bring something out or find something for our devices

Correct, but in our case it is beyond normal. 3 hours O-S-T is not normal for this phone in any case

Yeah, I understand what you mean, the problem here is that we do not know if it's connected to software (or somehow to the bootloader / root probably not though) or if it's the actual phone being faulty. I doubt it's faulty, I have absolutely no problems apart from the drainage

Please help.....my phone keeps rebooting

HI EVERYBODY
I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY GALAXY S5 G900F
IT KEEPS REBOOTING SO I TRIED A SOFTWARE AND IT DIDN'T WORK
SO I FLASHED A CUSTOM ROM THEN IT WORKED FOR A WEEK AND THE PROBLEM SHOWED UP AGAIN
SO NOW EVERYTIME I FLASH A CUSTOM ROM THE PHONE WORKS FOR COUPLE OF DAYS AND THEN THE SAME PROBLEM KEEPS COMING BACK
..
..
..
ANY IDEAS
Hi there,
Can you please define what "a software" means? What custom ROM did you install? Have you tried reflashing stock ROM and try isolating the problem (so, don't install you're usually apps, test them one by one) whether it is an app caused issue or hardware (happens regardless of app/ROM install)? Have you considered getting a new battery? Apologies for the vague questions but the level of detail provided is not sufficient for us users to effectively help.
Regards, Saber

A SOFTWARE:Installing firmware by odin :good:

The only apps i use are social media apps, nothing needs root access or may be harmful
Yes i tried a new battery and it didn't work
Sorry for bad English

You mentioned changing the battery? Is it a Samsung original battery replacement? Cos I think mine was caused by overheating up to 70C and rebooting. I'm planning to under clock in a while.

i think the main problem here is the part that detect the battery percentage, or atleast the battery itself. Since i plugged in my phone then it hanged so i had to pull out the battery then put it back on while still plugged in, then my batter percentage increased from 24% to 45% by just doing that.

This might help a little. Look for these lines in your build.prop:
ro.core_ctl_min_cpu=2
ro.core_ctl_max_cpu=4
Change the value of he first line to 1. It's set to run on 2 cores minimum. If the lines aren't there, try adding at least the first set to 1.
Edit: it actually sounds like you may have a battery problem or another problem with your device. Might want to try to get it replaced.

Heat

Hi guys! So I was wondering to replace my battery, because i got about 2-3 SOT. But I'm not sure, my N6P heating, so i wondering you guys could tell what's going on with this phone.. Even after Hard Reset, at the same time its really hot. Could be that phone going to die? Or could battery replace help solve this problems? Don't judge me, I don't know to much about the phones.
Thanks and have a good day.
I replaced my battery after almost 2 years of use. Fixed all the battery problems and now I get 4-5 hours.
Get a new battery and replace it in a certified store if you don't want to do it yourself (the 6p isn't that easy to work with)
Make sure its a new original battery.
BTW heat wont make your battery life worse. It will actually slow down your phone and maybe save so battery.
If you have any questions or i didn't clearly something feel free to ask.

5000mAh battery lasting only for 3 hour's. Definitely your battery damaged.
Still more information is needed for assessment.
Provide the below mentioned information
year's you been using this device ?
Do you use any kind of rogue app like facebook ?
provide a screenshot of battery usage.
Are you rooted or have knowledge of using adb ?
Thank you. Have a great time !

Unfortunately the screenshot that you shared provides no data related to app usage.
You can try few things to troubleshoot but it's time consuming. So if you're interested let me know.

First thing is remove all other battery monitoring apps . And just use BBS ( no neee to use amplify now ). Rest follow the post.
