I was having the early shut down issue, so I had my battery replaced with an oem Huawei battery and everything was great. This was just a hair over 3 months ago and it's started it again. All of my research seems that it is thought to be battery degradation, but my battery is new.
Has anyone reported the phones shutting down prematurely with a new battery? Does it on resurrection, dirty unicorns and pure nexus roms. Haven't done a total wipe and back to stock yet, but will be doing that.
It typically does it when taking a picture, or just randomly when nothing is going on.
I did do a search, but like I mentioned, it seems to be thought caused by a bad battery, so I wanted to ask about a new battery.

First install accubattery and run it through a few charge cycles, see what it says your battery health is. It is likely they installed another bad battery.

I'll do so, although I've read that Accubattery is a gimmick. Is that not the case? Thanks!
I'm pretty sure it's the battery at least in my case it was. The original battery was fine but my first replacement cause early shutdowns immediately after installed. The second one so far is running fine we will see. I would suggest replacing the battery again.

It calculates the current going into the battery and matches that against the battery's manufacture specs. I've seen a lot of users showing 70-80% health, and after they replace it the app shows 95-105% (depending on battery maker)

Purchased a One Plus 5. The 6P continues to reboot. Oh well.
I have very high demands when coming to a camera on a mobile and after analyzing the latest mobiles pictures I am as a photographer most impressed with Nexus 6P.
I have found a brand new copy of it for 350 euro.
But what makes me still not sure is the bootloop thing.
1) Does the bootloop problem comes after the phones age, is it caused by worn or is it caused by after an update?
2) I have root a few mobiles and always the camera has got a bit worse after installing CM/LOS/AOSP, is it the same with Nexus 6P? Is the camera best with the stock rom?
3) Are there any other problems with Nexus 6P that is very common?
AFAIK the bootloop is totally random - I have a 6P and never had it, but I was affected by the battery early death.
I'd look for newer phones.

LG V20 is cheap these days.
Moto Z.
If I didn't have a Nexus 6P, I would not buy one today.
There are too many alternatives.

The only two new phones that have better or same camera quality is Pixel and HTC U11, but their way too expensive.
V20 is like all other LG and Samsung camera, to much oversharp and unnatural colors.
There arent too many alternatives if you looking for a camera as good as Nexus 6P and with at least 5,5" display
Brand new? Not refurbished?
If it is actually brand new for 350 euro I would buy it. Yes there are alternatives but not at that price.
Basic stuff:
1) take care of the battery, don't let it go to zero (many of us had our phones replaced due to early battery death)
2) put a decent case on it, screen will crack if you drop it on a corner on a hard surface
I'm on my second 6p and I've not experienced the bootloop issue, but I did get early battery death on the first one.

Agreed. No better camera at this price and take care of battery. I have accubattery and battery repair app. After nearly a year, still 96% health. Don't charge over 90% and don't go below 20% if possible.

I'd say go for it great phone just recently picked up one and couldn't be happier.
I was wondering the same thing since I'm thinking about dropping Sprint for T-Mobile, but the Bootloop issue that we've all heard about has me extremely worried. Anyone recommending this phone (in the US specifically) in 2017?

What? You're joking? I never heard of any of these issues. Especially the bootloop which I JUST HAD on my LG G4! I got this phone as a replacement by a friend and it got the same issue? That's hilarious.
What's the battery thing? I can't let it go under 20%? That's rather annoying since this phone (as well as my LG G4) doesn't seem to have stellar battery life so I will as a hard user drop under 20% easily in a day. Is it really that serious?

Oh, I'm not questioning you. Just venting my frustration as well appreciating the humour coming from a device that had the exact same problems, and then got this device as a temporary replacement. Wonder if it's related to the Snapdragon 808/810, those SoC's weren't the best.
Could you tell me anything more about the battery issue? What is it exactly and is it common?

Well, I've only had the device since October last year and reading about the battery problems others have had on older devices, such as shutting down at 50% has got me a bit concerned. Just following xda charging advice. I've been on nougat, dp4 and now back on last stock marshmallow build because I miss Xposed. Battery life seems better and wakelock isn't showing any apps misbehaving. Just an average user willing to take whatever advice I come across.

Not sure how old this device I got is, but I'd guess at least one year. I'll guess I'll just have to see.
Where can I find the XDA charging advice, or is that just the one you posted, not above 96% and not below 20%. The last one is going to be tough since I suspect this device doesn't have stellar battery life so I'll easily dip below 20% in a day.
Which one is DP4? I'm on CarbonROM now (love the selection of ROMs for this device) because of it's excellent support for MicroG. About to try out Pure Nexus and LineageOS.
Isn't Xposed ready for Nougat now? Although I don't miss Xposed that much anymore after Magisk.

Not above 90%. Once in a while should be alright. Dp4 is the last beta of stock Android o. I usually stick to stock so I don't know much about custom roms. I use ex kernel for color profiles - can't stand stock yellowish tint. Xposed for nougat I tried. Before attempting to install any modules, other apps begin to crash. I don't know how much progress has been made since then but only a few modules work anyway. Only tried magisk to install system wide sound module once before but haven't used it since.
I flashed the stock image and i found the battery life abysmal. Not even a day
7-8 hrs tops with barely any usage
Anyone has experienced the same issue
Give it a few days and see if it improves. Sometimes drastic updates can have adverse effects on the battery
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
I have one of the best battery life on O right now and I'm not pointing fingers to anything but google.
I was excited after hearing "Android Vitals" and they are on point about it.
Try to flash a custom kernel like EX or Flash though Ex's kernel isn't fully committed with the O source code but you may at least try it. On a side note there are still apps out there that aren't coded properly for O which would probably hinder your angler so look out for them a lot.
Thank you everyone for pitching in
Like I mentioned I flashed the stock image and gave it 2 days but as I disconnect the phone from the charger at around 9 AM (100%) , by 3-4 PM I am being left with 30% or less . By 6 PM it starts beeping as it hovers 15%
I barely use the phone at work. I just do occasional messaging (text and whatsapp). I removed all apps except the ones that I really need. No games...etc
I did flash the other day the EX Kernel ( Beta for O) for which I have the paid manager version.
It drives me crazy as it seems to be draining at a very fast rate with no apparent reason.
What's even more frustrating is that the built in battery app doesn't shed much light. The process that takes the most battery is "System" but that's all.
Maybe it's time for a new phone

Yes, I went back to paranoid nougat, because I got the same
battery experience as you with O. But I'm reading that you use
what's app, do you can play a video if someone sending you one? Since the O previews for me the videos are just loading but not playing, and that's only the case by using android O, doesn't matter if I use what's app or what's app beta.
I got the 2% battery drain bug and sometimes i dont, ive reflashed oreo about 8 times lol, sometimes it dies at 15%..

No, just my twrp backup, you can stay on latest bootloader and radio. Strange thing with whats app, may oreo doesn't like my internal, if final release come I will complete clean flash with fastboot.
Edit: check latest Pixeldust rom, it's like pa with a bit more useful features
I think my phone may be defective
Even on Paranoid the battery seems bad
The miscellaneous was on top of the list . What does that mean .... ?
Battery update.- Running kylo kernel r9 , working great so far just a few personal tweaks applied.

I'm not sure what you're expecting, give the rom some time and charges to settle battery. How old is your phone? If you don't have patience flash stock image and completely wipe your phone if you think something is faulty.
Well...
I used to get like a day out of the phone . With my minimal usage I would disconnect it in the morning and still have like 30-40% when getting back home in the evening.
All of the sudden one day I was just on my way home and I noticed the phone was off. I tried power it back on but it kept on flashing red as it was totally drained. Since then battery went downhill.
I'm not crazy and I do not have unrealistic expectations but 5 or 6 hours of battery with almost no usage seems a bit off. I gauged just by looking at the numbers being something ridiculous like 10% an hour.
I did wipe and flash the stock few times. Oreo then Nougat
Since the issue persisted I am thinking the phone just went bad.
If your battery is faulty, then it's faulty, that's why i asked how old your phone is. Ain't there battery health apps to take a look how worse it is.
Yeah I think it's maybe 1yr and half old.
I'm starting to evaluate those Essentials and Pixels 2.
Or better get a Pixel 1st gen if they drop low enough
Sounds to me like your battery is worn out. I'm amazed that you got 1.5 years out of it because I've seen posts from people who didn't even make it a year. You mentioned that it's draining 2% at a time and shuts down at 15%, which are pretty strong indicators that your battery is shot.

Nokia 8 (pure android) is an option too, but I would change the battery, n6p is still a very nice piece of hardware. Essential
is a hype phone til now.

There are so many floating around and I'm not sure about their quality

Hard to say, I will run accubattery for week, after a first charge it doesn't look very promising for me too, and my phone is a bit over a year old. may some other users know a better tool or app, but this one doesn't seem to be so bad. Let's see what happens after some charges.
Akku Gesundheit=Accu Health, sry it's german here.
If you search for a replacement there is a thread here on xda
for the 6p, OEM battery or something like this

surprisingly most batteries (Even blatant knockoffs) have the advertised capacity, except the 3600 mAh ones. Just grab a Cameron Sino or one of the original-looking ones and you'll be fine
I got a replacement OEM from the states for 5 quid - it was the cheapest on ebay at the time. Works perfectly. My phone returned to it's formal glory, except for Quick Charging which was broken before.
Just ordered this one: it's supposed to be for the Axon 7s which I think as the same structure inside, so it must fit well. Seems legit, 3320mAh as the Axon 7s is 3400 mAh
Battery Aliexpress
And 2 speakers as the bottom one seems non fonctional and the top one is not sounding good anymore

I'm still waiting for the battery, this is Aliexpress
For the 3650 mAh, just a little search on the forum will answer your question, or a search on Aliexpress. SPOILER: it's a 3200mAh
Just received my battery.
Just a reminder, it was supposed to be a battery for Axon 7s which has a greater capacity.
The battery I received is a standard yellow one for Axon 7 with ZTE logo.
I'm too busy to install it right now, I hope it's a legit one and has a standard capacity.
Conclusion: you can't find any Axon 7s battery
I ordered mine off Amazon called Cameron Sino like someone here said earlier and it's working good for now I hope it stays this way for a while. I've read about 3rd party batteries degrading too fast compared to oem ones. Almost doubled my battery life compared to a 2 year old battery i was using before this

For my first time I would say not too bad but I did end up scratching the speaker grills and ordering a replacement. To me, getting the speaker cover out was harder than the actual battery. I've posted some sot screenshots in a different thread if u are interested in seeing them. And as a first timer also have advice for others who want to try it as well so they don't make the same mistakes as me. It can be worth it if u don't care about keeping your device that mint anymore. But it can still also be mint depending how good u are at replacing it. If u use a case, the scratches can be covered up anyways. Imo I would say only do it if u had your phone for too long or got bored of it. Once u know how to do it perfectly, this can almost futureproof the phone and u might not feel like switching anymore. Another time to do it could be when u order an already used one for less than half the price of a new and have nothing to lose. Replacing the battery will make it feel new again and u just got yourself a good deal. There are a bunch for sale either on swappa or ebay. I think people usually sell their phones because battery degradation is the main reason and they went for a new phone instead of replacing it themselves
I need a battery replacement too.
I get 1.30 hours screen on time and Battery Saver is enabled all the time.
If I use WiFi I lose 1 percent every 30/60 seconds.
I need it mostly on screen.
I checked accubattery multiple times once it said 1.950 mah left and now 2.150 mah.
I'm running Android 9 but I got worse results on older Versions of Android. I don't even play games now.
Is this all battery fault?

I dunno if you replaced your battery since posting, but I had the same levels of battery degradation as you. I just changed my battery... And this thing is flying again and not feeling like it'll shutdown after 3-4 hours of use. It's crazy how much my device was throttling with the old battery.
Be careful not to damage the screen ribbon. Also not to over heat the grills distorting them. The glue on the camera glass has to go during assembly.
This happened to me today while browsing facebook.
My phone suddenly shut down. While trying to turn on, it would get to booting screen and then shut down again. It didn't loop - I had to try each time manually.
I cleared cache and reset it to factory settings to no avail. BUT once I got back home and managed to connect it to a charger (the battery was at estimated 90% capacity), everything runs smoothly. No shutdowns, no freezes - despite the phone getting warm. I stressed it quite a lot and it seems to hold, so I don't think this is related to the "bigger" CPU.
Could it possibly be a battery issue? Could my device be misreading the actual capacity of the battery?
As a sidenote: it did crash/shutdown once I disconnected the charger, but only after 20 minutes or so when I uninstalled a running at that time app.
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated, so I have something to work with and replace stuff accordingly - and hopefully not the entire phone, as I love my 6P.
It seems like it has to be connected to the battery, as it has been now holding (presumably) at 56% charge for over 4 (!) hours. AccuBattery shows the same data as what the phone reads, and now it seems that my power drain is in negative without charging the phone.
Sadly, there are no original replacements available in my country. Only cheap 3550mAh knockoffs that sellers call OEM. They do have Huawei logo, but everyone knows that 3450mAh is the only original capacity (right?)
Update: Nearly 20 hours on the same displayed 56% capacity.
Any help? Please?
No, you are wrong. Those 3550mAh batterys are the brand new ones from huawei. Those are the newest revision of the battery. Dont get the 3450 ones. If the seller is really selling a 3450mAh one, then its probably one of the old ones with the known issues.

Thanks for the heads-up. Just out of curiosity - how do you know that? When I contacted Huawei support, they did not answer me whether the 3550mah bat is a genuine product, or a farce. They avoided that question until they force-closed my support ticket without a proper answer.
First: Because i bought one and informed myself before. Then the new battery ran better then ever before. Even better then when the nexus 6p was new. Its the new batch that is better then ever before.

The thickness of the cable does not matter that much. Something you can care about is the weight. But this is something you can check when you got the new battery and also took the old one out.
To have longer battery life dont use the original charger. Use max a 5V 2A one. For example from a older Samsung mobile phone. Those have good electrical efficiency.

Thanks again.
For the 3 years I've bee using my 6P I never had battery life issues. In fact, even now the battery is holding well, despite the stats showing that my battery might be dying.
I came to this forum section looking for feedback on what could possibly be going on with my phone presenting the issues I am having. I am no mobile tech unlike many of guys around here. I might budge then and hope that the local Huawei repair center in my city will be of more help than the official Huawei support.
