Hello everyone..... I have flashed 3 custom roms on my phone rr aex and lineage ..... In all three roms i had the same problem which i didn't have on stock rom, i.e. battery. In the custom roms i get 1%drop in every 3-4 mins while screen is on. And while the screen is off it is okay bur sometime while the screen is off too the battery drops 1% about evry 3 mins.... This didnt happen in the stock rom , on that i got about 1% drop in 9 mins plus the standby time was amazing..... So i wanted to ask why is this issue there? Is there a problem with the custom roms or there kernels? And should i flash the stock kernel on lineage os 15.1, will it make a difference??what else can i do for better battery? Thanx in advance:good:.

I believe its with the ROM itself. The way the ROM manages BG processes and deep sleep cycles, u can improve battery with the custom kernel ( ko kernel ) but you have to sacrifice a bit of performance , by twerking the CPU profiles using kernel adiutor , but even then it won't make a huge difference.
I'd stay if battery is ur concern, go with pure aosp or stock . I hope the issue is fixed soon , the dev have acknowledged it.
Im using rr rom with ko kernel,greenfly and amplify.it gaves me about 10 hours SOT.battery drops at 20% after 2 hours using SOT

https://forum.xda-developers.com/asus-zenfone-max-pro-m1/development/kernel-t3817910
This is the ko kernel for zenfone max pro m1..... Download it and flash it from recovery....
This will fix your battery issues
Also if you are having battery issue check and see if any of your apps is eating too much battery in background because when i flashed the magisk module of youtube vanced app on the ko kernel the battery problems started again and when i removed it the battery was fine again?

I have found a better kernel than ko kernel
https://forum.xda-developers.com/as...velopment/x00td-rawwork-kernel-v1-0-t3811851/
I am using this kernel now and i found that battery life is better on this one and the ram management too..... With ko kernel i had like 1300 mb free at all time but now with this kernel there is 1800 mb ram free at all times ..... It has made the performance better with good battery life.

Hello i can see that your system has used very less battery than mine .
In your screenshot system shows only 17 % battery used.
My system used up 34% battery with 6hrs 5 min screen on time....
Why is that ?is there a problem in my phone or is it just cos we use pur phones in different ways.

It does depend on how you use your phone. What is important is to figure out if your phone is using battery on something that you don't expect it to. Use better battery stats to see if your phone is using battery on unwanted stuff. Now I am getting 15h battery.

Nopes, it shouldnt be that much. Check your partial wakelocks or kernel wakelocks. Sometimes i have cdfinger_wakelock which is taking up battery. I also have ActivityManager-Sleep wakelock which is also consuming too much battery. When I restart things start working(sometimes). Sometimes I don't have a clue how to stop them.

This happens with me too..... Sometimes when i restart it after charging to 100% then it doesn't consume any battery while the screen is off even for hours but sometimes while sleeping and even when screen is on the phone consumes 4% battery in 12 mins. I hope there will be a permanent fix for this in the future.

That's probably from buggy ambient display. Try turning off n check if it improves. I am no expert in wakelocks. I am myself figuring out stuff. You can ask people in better battery stats thread. They might help us.

Okay guys...!! To start with I was very upset with my battery life that it doesn't even last a day or even 4-5 hours...
I was so upset that I was feeling like taking a new phone instead of this...
I also tried to add custom ROMS ( Cyanogen Mod 10.1.2, PAC ROM, AOSP )...
but nothing worked out for me...I keep asking in the forum of XDA how to save battery life, which rom does give more battery life..
Finally, I've found my own way to increase the battery life, It says learning on its own teaches you everything...!!!
I learned finally how to increase the battery life...!!
To start with, I'll let you know how much I used and how much % battery it lasted...
On my daily usage it comes to Whatsapp+ using it 24/7...!! Facebook, downloading apps, Browsing on Google Chrome, Listening Music allot, Playing games ( smaller games like Wheres my water, Despicable me, Ninja jump, Pool, Cricket, temple run, angry birds..) Asphalt 8 really sucks in battery...If you use it for 20 minutes and play that game your battery will jump from 70 to 55%...
Even after using my battery so much, I had 13% left to use...!!! A REAL SHOCK
After doing all that My battery lasted for 9 hrs and 52 minutes...!!! I was really shock with it...!!! But it really worked out...!!!
Stamina mod showed 1day and some minutes as a standby mod...!! I'll soon post the screenshot...!!
Lets start:
It's just 10 Simple steps
you need to 1st VVVV important thing is to ROOT the phone..!!
2nd..Again important thing...!!! ( DO NOT DOWNLOAD ANY BATTERY SAVING APPS )..Examples are ( GO power, Juice Defender which sucks for me, DU Battery saver...!!! )
3rd...Keep the Stamina MOD on..!!
4th..Download Better Battery Stats...for your guidance...!!
5th Make your screen brightness to 0...( Select Adapt to light conditions )...Trust me making brightness to 0 will still help you to see anything on the mobile even in the sun..I've tried it..
6th Download Greenify for Hibernating apps....which will not eat your battery allot ( Worked for me like a charm ).
7th Download Startup manager...For stopping all the apps that start when you boot the phone..
8th Don't keep any launchers ( Next Launcher, Go Launcher, Nova launcher or any other launcher except for the Xperia Home..)
9th On the homescreen, put the apps only on 1 page...!!
10th Don't use any Live wallpaper or anything news or weather widget...!!
Trust me guys..!! You'll definitely see results as I've experienced it and I'm now really happy with my Xperia Z ( Rooted) phone..!!!
Below are the screenshots!!
Uploaded new photos...!!!!

Rather than using apps like Startup manager, it is better to de-bloat and remove system apps that is known to eat up the battery or converting them to user apps, and then greenify the **** out of them.
Also with the use of custom kernel with undervolt and init.d script support will help a lot - it makes the battery life tweaking easier!

It's the screen-on time that is most important and amount of time between battery fully charged and phone shuts down because of 0% battery, not the current percentage..

Not everything, Just what you never use but Google decides that it should be running in the background wasting battery for nothing...
Its up to the reader to decide whats Worth or not to disable then.

exactly, why shouldn't we disable/shut off certain things: There are plenty of features or apps
1. I tested but didn't like or
2. which I know better alternatives to or
3. which I never use or
4. ...
Why should we leave these things (ON) on our phones?
Thats irrational.

Lol example from the op:
Keep screen brightness at zero
Only one page of apps no widgets
Sorry but I'd rather have a bit less battery than neuter my phone..... I would say that's more irrational, it's like buying a sports car and saying I'll save gas If I never drive it, or only drive it ten feet every week!

Sure you can do that
I was a bit upset regarding my battery life however I myself learnt how to save battery and it worked for me...
I was also worried about the admins or some devs who will comment that don't post something like this...etc
But it's okay as It worked for me, I am guessing it should work for everyone if they do the same thing that I did..!!
As it worked for me, I thought to let other users know about this and it might be useful for them...!!

Atleast I posted this thread because it worked for me and I'm still using it like that...!! Maybe it won't work out for you coz you don't want to TURN OFF everything..?? Others it may help...!!! I'll suggest you to try and then say...!! I'm sure it'll work...!!!

I'm a little busy today so sorry for the delay guys!!! Have to go out suddenly and my battery will die today by 3 am because I'll be coming late
My battery life is almost the same as it was back on CM13. My phone is rooted and running xposed V81. I clean flashed 3.0.0 using the modified TWRP. I'm only getting around 2 1/2 hours of SOT and ~10 hours total usage.

Hi,
I have been facing similar issues, I have been using my OP2 for the last 2 months and has continuously got an avg. Of 3.5 hours SOT even when I am connected to WiFi throughout the day.
I rooted my phone and greenfied FB, Messenger and few other apps, used POWER Nap, yet I can't get more than 3.5 hours at all.

In my experience stuff like Greenify and Power Nap do more harm than good. For Facebook i would use Facebook Lite or the mobile website.
To your logs: i don't know what app you were using exactly but in both logs you have your CPU at highest frequenzy for over an hour. If you are using an App which needs the CPU to run on its highest speed it sure is using a lot of Battery. I don't see anything abnormal in your logs. Maybe head over to the BBS discussion thread and show your logs there.

The best battery life I got so far is to run on STOCK. 4.5-5 SOT on LTE only (surely longer if on WiFi)
with CM13, I get about 3.5-4h SOT (standby drain very fast).
With xposed, amplify, greenify, power nap, various kernels (AK, boeffla) all didn't significantly improve anything at all. The placebo effect is really strong.
Same here. OSS 2.2.1 was way better. I installed new hydrogen os MM and I have best battery than OSS 2.2.1, for now, I have to do more test but it's looking amazing.

OOS 3 has been the best for me in terms of battery. With moderate usage and sync on I frequently get over 5 hours sot over 3 days of use vs 1.5 days on 2.2.1. Doze is fantastic and I barely lose 2% a night.

Can you explain your point about the wifi issue?
I'm running a clean install of 3.0.0 and it's LOVELY, but my battery is terrible.
Would be interested in ways to improve if I could understand the wifi problem.
Please, while complaining about f**ked up battery life, do something that benefits us all.
Post screenshots of your battery usage chart from android settings and post logs from apps such as BetterBatteryStats.
I did try, however i'm "new" to the forum (posting) and therefore could not attach or add links .
Essentially though Android OS is showing:
CPU Total: 1h 15m
Keep awake: 57m
It's also 15% of my total battery usage.

Don't you have idle drain because of network dropping? Since marshmallow, I've had that issue that once the device goes off to sleep, the network bar in the battery is either yellow, or orange. And it isn't that I don;t have good reception, I never had this issue before upgrading to OOS 3, otherwise the OS is really good.

From what I've found, each time I turn off wifi my wakelock increase by 2 minutes under android system/oxygen, more specifically "connectivity service"
I believe it's just the system trying to find a data source after wifi is turned off. (my data is off)
So given this, its best to leave wifi on unless you're gonna be in a place with no wifi all day, turning it on and off will cause wakelocks

I notice this as well, reception is sometimes green and mostly orange/yellow vs solid green on 2.2.1 but it hasn't seemed to affect my idle drain. In fact it has actually decreased from 2.2.1 where I would get a drain of at least 5% every 7 hour sleep period even with airplane mode and power saver enabled. Now on 3.0, drain is more like 2% with wifi over the same period.
Additionally, someone stated that the orange/yellow reception phenomenon was marshmallow actively trying to conserve radio power when its not needed. I don't know how accurate this is but it might be true

Weird, on OOS 2.2.0 I used to get hardly 3-4 % drain in around 7-8 hours, on OOS 2.2.1 it became more 5-7% and on OOS 3.0 I get 8-9%.. Very weird... Isn't OS update supposed to make things better? Also I did do a clean flash of this particular rom and I am all stock, havent rooted the device yet.

And also, weird thing, the phone is not awake during the deep sleep, atleast not showing in the battery graph.
Could you plz explain did you do any changes to have 11hrs of SOT??
I'm desperate, Android system and Android OS are draining my battery, I can't get to the end of the day and when using it it gets hot very often, despite not using hard apps. I tried to flash Hydrogen OS, CM13, PA, using greenify, etc... facing exactly the same problems. Can anyone help me?

I use Temasek as my rom with greenify, amplify, kernel audiotor , appopsxposed and tasker.
On custom kernel Clarity r26 (permissive)
My brightness is set to 12 when I am indoor or after 5 pm. From 10 am to 5 pm I have automated brightness to 15 when outdoor.
Once my screen goes off wifi or data is turned off. My phone goes to Airplane mode from 12 am to 7 am. Once I am home wifi is turned on and data service is disabled.
I am sure most around here knows how to use amplify and greenify so I wont go about explaining the same.
With appopsxposed I have disabled all the location permissions of all the apps including play services except tasker as I dont use them.
In the next post I will post my kernel settings. I have tried and tested this multiple times and the results have been more or less same.

Thanks man. I'm on Temasek + Clarity Reborn, linaro compilation of reborn kernel has an awesome performance with great battery backup.
Hi for all!
I want to up the clock of my Moto E XR1022. It's a ROM Stock Lollipop 5.1.
I already did root and bootloader.
Is there a specific setup for my configuration (ROM Stock 5.1) with kernel audiotor?
Thank you!
I am using clarity reborn + mokee ROM.
CPU scheduler=impulse
I/O Scheduler=SIO
disabled DT2W.

OMG are you serious ? This works on a depleted battery as well ? You can get 10 hours of SOT with a newer battery. And use Kernel audiutor and make sure you are using clarity r26 with permissive.

To ensure you dont drop much while device not in use ... You should use amplify and greenify all apps that you have installed. Kill Google play service and ensure the apps you greenify are not waking up.

The only working solution for now: flash Lollipop. It's not perfect but it heats and drains battery much less than Marshmallow.
I'm creating this thread so that we can discuss battery life issues and look for a solution.
There is a popular thread on this topic but it is marked as solved, and while the original poster's issue has been solved there are many others that remain.
For some people the issue was solved when rootkernel was updated to fix some bug. But that was a long time ago, and some bugs are obviously present even in the latest kernels rooted with the latest rootkernel versions. It's still unclear if the issue is present on non-rooted kernels.
I will create a poll, please consider answering it to help clear the issue.
By the way, has anyone encountered any issues on 5.1, or is it just a Marshmallow issue?
Partial solution: I installed OM5Z kernel and it has significantly improved battery life on Marshmallow.
While it's still much worse than what you would expect from a Sony compact, it's not awful anymore. The phone can go a day (no heavy usage) without charging now.
Stock or Xpower 4 ,rooted or not dosnt metter - i have a drain every night(8-9 h of sleep) about 5-7% in airplane mode.Try BBS and WD now but seems phone sleep good.Think i lost about 15-20% at 24 hours
On Xpower 4 lite as is...with andro kernel v36 same issue.And i dont have any other soft. Goggle sync and other garbage is off.
Dont now where is may be problem.

Try Xpower3, it looks like X4 got more problem. I'm running v3.0 Full(stock kernel), when I set it to airplane mode over night only drain 1~2% everytime but I've installed greenify donated and used xposed amplify.
For anyone reading this thread, are there any other things people can note about their setup?
Country? Carrier?
If you are having issues, what apps do you use? Do you have a microSD card and if so, what brand/model?
If you are not having issues, same question about apps and microSD card.
I have seen on my phone the higher Android OS CPU usage which is of course the black hole of power drain for many people. I still need to do more scientific testing of usaging or avoiding apps to see if anything is triggering the drain.
T-Mobile US customer here, typically on Wifi at work/home also with T-Mobile cellspot for signal strengh. Standard apps for messaging and social media including Snapchat (bad app for power usage) but avoiding Facebook for now. Google Now Launcher.
Stock firmware, rooted stock kernel, don't have issues
1) Z5 was incredibly hot out of the box
2) Wiping the system, rooting the kernel etc. fixed this but gave me awful battery life
3) Installing the modded kernel then fixed the battery life (found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/general/9-battery-drain-overnight-97-deep-sleep-t3382145)
I can stretch it to 3 days with light use, a day of heavy use can put me back 50-60%
I'm from the UK with the UK unbranded official ROM.

I have also recently upgraded from Z3C to Z5C with stock Singapore Customized FW, but I live in France (ordered from eBay).
Weird thing is that during the day it loses may be 30-40% in 6 hours, but every evening after I come back from work, phone overheats with battery up to 50 degrees and drains 30% in 1 hour...
In stats, it shows Android OS using most of battery and keep awake being 80% of up time...
I had same issue on Z3C with last 6.0.1 MM.
During the night I usually lose 5-10%.
Any advice?

The problem is that I have E5803, and not E5823...
Will the HK FW work on it? It's only for E5823 I think (according to Xperifirm)
Also, what exactly should I do - I should wipe everything when installing using Flashtool right?
Should I also do reset after installation?
Can I restore my backup or you would recommend to make a clean install of the apps as well?
I don't want to lose data of apps.

Before reflash or do someting try to use clean frimware without your usually apps.Do factory reset.Dont forget to make backup of your current state phone i f you need.
I think problem exactly in your apps.
I have issue with night drain and i try HK frimware on my 5823 and i dont feel any difference.

Okay, now that I have gathered some statistics I take back my words about significantly improved battery life. It's slightly improved and still awful.
I'm using stock fw, but have deleted about 60-70 apps I don't have any use for. I also use OM5Z kernel. I experience no drain what I know of, usually have about 3 days with normal use.
The only issue I experienced is that the phone totally crashed a couple of times. I can't wake it up at all, and it doesn't take any charge (LED doesn't lid up). I have to use the reset button to reboot it. But so far, it's a small issue

Hello guys. So recently, i've got an S5 (G900F). As soon as i get it, I installed LineageOS 14.1, the latest in order to have Nougat on my device.
The problem was that the device couldnt switch on Doze (or smth like this, i dont know), and the standby battery time is very bad, it discharges 1-2-3% / h standby.
I though that my battery was the problem so i've got a fresh, brand new S5 Battery for a fortune, and guess what? Its the same!
So i decided to install RR Nougat, and it's exactly the same. My last tough was to install an RR MM to the devie, and guess again what! The battery life is amazing, it basically stays the same % in standby.
Why do this bug has in Nougat, and how can I fix this?
Thanks!
Install the Boeffla-Kernel. Battery life with LineageOS and that kernel is much better than MM with stock.

Thanks. I did install the kernel, but right now I'm using RR Nougat. When I installed that kernel I haven't spot any difference with battery. What's your settings in that kernel?
I might consider installing LOS back.

Got stock MM now, and overnight with BT on I see no difference compared to LOS with Boeffla with the battery friendly preset. Haven't compared if one is more battery friendly during daily use.
Going back to LOS as the latest MM update from Samsung doesn't have the mobile ID banking apk which isn't available on at Play. Samsung sucks!

Strange. Can you send me a screen shot from the battery usage?
My s5 is broken recently, i was using LOS and i noticed that battery is poor. Now, i'm using galaxy a3 16 with stock rom MM, 2100mh of battery, the battery is amazing than galaxy s5 LOS with 2800mh of battery.
hey guys, try to get latest baseband and bootloader for your devices. I've updated mine and tons of problems were solved (I've never suspected this would be the problem doe)

Never thought about how doze worked in Boeffla, or understood, but it might be that unchecking it does that no apps are dozing, but checked only those that are white listed native in the battery settings are not. Right?

Honestly, i dont know. I'm crying back those days when my Galaxy J5 drained 0% overnight (CM12.1). Its a shame for Nougat (and probably MM too).

lollipop is the best of them all: I'm using S3 with archidroid 5.1.1 and it doubled my battery life (i kid you not!). I've tried RR MM and Nougat and it too but battery life was way way worse, in general 6 and 7 are worse OS-es than KK...
so to conclude, I'm getting S5 on Saturday and will install most optimized lollipop on it judging by my and you experience on other OS-es here
