Battery health checker ? - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, I'm just wandering if is there any way to check battery health ? an app or something.
Tried several apps on Playstore and all say that my battery health is good, but I'm having a battery drain and shut down from 25%.
thx in advance.

Try Accubattery, it showed the issue with mine when it was doing similar before Google replaced it.

Hey, do you remember how healthy your battery was according to Accubattery (in %)?

This.
AccuBattery shows 90% health for my battery, but still i get only 2.5hrs - 3 hrs Sceen-On Time with apps greenified and Aggressive Doze On. If you remember the details, would you mind sharing them here?

Mine was down at something like 30% just before it was replaced. Now its at 104% and I get 4-5 hours of screen on time.
Now just using stock Oreo as no need for root at the moment.

Thanks. Guess I'll stick with this battery for now.
I'm getting 4-5h SOT and, according to Accubattery, it's 87% healthy.

Interesting. I made the mistake of charging overnight at first. I only realised a while later that it only took 1 hour 45 or so to fully charge, so now I charge when I wake in the morning. Overcharging is supposed to be the main cause of battery depreciation.
When I first installed Accubattery I was at 91%, that was the end of June, don't think I'm doing too bad.

Like every Nexus phone I've owned ... since the Galaxy, I have left the phone on the charger 24/7. All day, all night. I take it off when i leave the house/office and sometimes it stays on the (stock) charger for days. The N6P has a high number of defective batteries, but that shouldn't change your daily charging habits. In other words don't change charging habits if the one device you have has a defective or sub-par battery. Put a new battery in and carry on. We have 3 N6P's in the family and they are all still above 90% according to Accubattery... Guess we are lucky.

Really Awful Battery Life

Just a few days ago my battery on my phone drained to 0 then charged it while turned off. But something suddenly came up and I need to go immediately and plugged the charger out before it was full. After that, my battery can barely last 1 day but normally my phone lasts up to 3 days without wifi and I already have Juice Defender and I actually upgraded it into Ultimate. Another thing that I noticed is that the temperature is becoming hotter than it used to be. Possibly because it's hot here. And no, it doesn't have any bumps.
So, what can I do about this? Do I have to buy a new battery or does anyone have an alternative?
My battery lasts 7 hours... Beat that!

better to try some custom ROMs which has a better battery life..after flashing custom ROM drain the battery and make a complte charge w/o interruption and then calibrate it..just download battery calibrator from playstore

Did your battery heat up like mine as well? Charging temperature is 42-43C. While Normal use is 35-39C and when playing some games it reaches to 40-42C.
Can this even be fixed by Battery Calibration? Just rooted my phone today.
And I am also eying the possibility that my charger is the culprit since it's becoming hot too especially the AC and the tip that you use to connect to your phone. Now I'm waiting for my aunt to borrow her charger and find out if it really is the one at fault.
And another thing that confuses me is my battery's health is still good. And the main drainer is "Cell Standby" and "Phone Idle".

And are the 3rd party ones any good or are they cheap made in China knock-offs?

I don't think doing any SW related stuff will do anything so you just have to wait and judge till you get current sot your new battery giving irrespective of full charge.
Also,how much time you waited to see if your old battery actually has a life before you changed it? I mean you obviously judge atleast 10 days before changing to see if its actually happening everytime after using any custom kernels or so,right?
I hace been testing diferent roms and kernels since dicember. Because I wanted to improve battery life. However I am not getting, the same SOT as other people says. In fact I get much less SOT thar everybody. So i decided to change muy battery

I had the same issue. To solve this issue
Drain your phone to 0% by playing games or music or anything you wish to
Now after the phone turns off itself, plug in your charger and let it charge over night(dont turn on your phone after connecting to charger)
Wake up in the morning and turn on the phone and use again till it becomes 0% again and after that charge it as you do normally and check if 100% shows up!

Standby Draining Thread

Hey guys! How is your One+ behaving? Does it sleep like a baby? mine does depending on the moment. usually I do not get more than 85% of deep sleep. Do you think it is normal? Phone wakes up randomly when it should be in deep sleep. Let's share our thoughts about this.
My OP5 arrived on Tuesday this week.
Charged it and did a basic set-up the next morning. Left the phone on, and went to work. Returned home about 10 hours later and the phone drained from 100% --> 94%
But like I say, that was just a basic set-up. As soon as I install FB, etc... I can see more battery drainage occurring.

It's similar for me now. I used to use a foreign sim card and I thought that the drain was due to it. Now I have a sim from the current country I am living in and it's exactly the same, so I do not know if there is any problem or the people who say that have 7 hours SOT lie.

I think that I could do it, but if I have 24 hours idle time my SOT time is going to be 5 hours, more or less. I think it is not bad.

Yea because if you use your phone on and off its gonna wait a while before it stops the cpu so more battery will consume itself to fuel that. You can't expect perfection on a lith ion battery

Getting less than an hour of SOT with a new phone and battery

I am in desperate need of help, I've only had this phone for like a week and I really like it but the battery life is abysmal. I'm getting less than an hour of screen on time, the phone is using about 10% per hour when in my pocket.
I've done the factory reset, deleting everything, downloaded greenify and absolutely no progress has been made.
Phone Idle and Android OS is sucking up about 20% of my battery. For the first couple of days I was getting about 2 hours of SOT and that's the best I've gotten so far. I just bought this thing and I really want to keep it but I can't afford to have this thing dying on me when it's just in my pocket don't nothing. Please ANY help would be appreciated, thank you!

Seems to me you may have a flawed device? 2 hours sot at best with a new device and new battery is horrendous, I have the T-Mobile variant as well, was refurbished and I'm getting a solid 15 hours with anywhere from 3.5-5 hours sot! Depending on usage so I believe you may have a defective V20 friend. I'm going to keep an eye on this thread see if anything comes up

That would mask the problem, not fix it. He would then probably get 2 hours of screen on time when he should be getting 6-7 with an extended battery.

Yeah every once in a while I get "Invalid Battery" and it shuts down and I have to leave the battery out for 10 minutes or else it will do the same thing. It's happened 3 times in the past week.

Is the battery new, is your phone refurbished, water damaged battery? Old battery in New phone? Something is up with your battery it sounds like. Would be the easiest thing to replace and test. It could be the phone itself having a hard time receiving the charge (faulty pins)

The phone was new for sure, but the battery was already installed in the phone when I opened the box. Is that normal? I watched a couple unboxing videos and they had the battery separate.

high idle battery drain

So coming from a LG v30 to this I been experiencing high battery drain when leaving the phone idle (screen off) at night. I had left it at 24% and woke up with it having 7%. Anyone else having this issue. On the v30 I could leave it at 5% and it'll hold that charge until the next morning. Any ideas
You may have an app preventing deep sleep I left mine on the other night and only lost a few percent overnight

Checked and says system was drain 24% since I slept
No idle drain issues for me. Started at 80% BTW. Must be an app or something on your end.
Are you rooted? I noticed Google News will occupy a lot of my battery even without using it. I've uninstalled it and have been okay ever since. Thing is a beast with battery.
To me it has to be an app issue. I can't believe how great my standby life has been so far.

Would definitely recommend a factory reset. Rogue app maybe? I'm surprised to have someone run into this issue. Hope you can get it squared off and get the full battery potential of the device. Nice to see you here from the v30 forums! ?

Wasn't trying to do that but why not, not like I haven't done this plenty of times with the v30(rom switching) ?
