My op2 is getting horrible battery life compared to others i've seen posted around the web. I get 2 hours or less of SoT which only lasts me half a day. I've seen people get 3 to 5 hours of SoT on their op2. I've tried both CM13, OxygenOS 2.1.4 and even custom kernels with battery profiles, but none seem to improve. Is my battery just bad?
Hi all,
i own my OPO since january 2015 and started noticing that the battery doesn t last like it used to be. i now usually get 3 hours of screen-on and it seems that the battery even takes longer to charge. How is your opo battery doing after more than 1 year of service? i'm asking because i want to know if it's a software problem that drains the battery (latest cm13 nightly) or really the battery got degraded
almost one and a half year old and the battery is still good.
after 2yrs, my batter gone down from 10hrs to 5hrs
What karthics4 said!Need a replacement soon!

if it got really degraded, change it.
Before replacing it, what should i check to be 100% sure that there is no battery drain on the software side?
With the right ROM and kernel I have much better battery life than two years before.
Oneplus One
I'm having less battery time than when it was new.
I have 3h SOT max currently.
Me 2. Currently looking for a good battery replacement...
After 2 years the battery is still extremely good.
Still lasting a day with ressurection remix and governor set to smartmax with lte,only wifi if i charge it to full it will consume only 35 to 40%.
I've had my OPO for over a year and battery life is excellent on Omnirom Nightlies (screenshots attached)
I get about 5 or less hrs SOT on CM13 Nightlies but with a custom kernel like Boeffla I can UC CPU and GPU and get about 6 hrs.
When I had my phone new on 4.4.4 KK I used to get 6 hrs SOT on COS with no tweaks whatsoever over 2 or more days.
Of course it will less, but I'm still getting 4-5 sot. I bought mine since the invite was sold like 40 dollars lol.
remmember that lithium batteries degrade when heated... and they get hot (40 C).
another thing to remmember is that android 4.4.4 that the OPO was delivered to us lasted more that MM and Lollipop...
after two years my battery is good, not bad not awesome like it new, but good.
I'm using ressurection remix with undervolt -130 MV
And I still can go to university and home with 50% battery.
The problem is you'll not find any ORIGINAL replacement battery for that phone. Its all label-faked batteries which will not last as long as a 2 years old original one...
I tried already some of them..
in GPS, choose the "DEVICE ONLY" mode and see that the battery will last more. CM bug...
Hardly any of the replies in this thread are useful. Most of you started out with KK and then went to LP and MM, which have much worse battery life than kitkat, so you don't know how much of the degradation is from battery wear. Flivercod's new AICP MM rom is the only one I have seen since kitkat that has a similar battery usage profile to kitkat - the screen uses at least 4 times more power than system, play services, OS, etc, so to me only someone who was running this rom could make a valid comparison to how their battery life was now vs how it was new. For me, I have dropped about an hour of SOT, from 6 to 5 due to battery wear, which is about what you would expect. Due to this, I would like to replace my battery.
It peeves me to no end, like Guido83 said,. that you cannot find an OEM battery for the OPO. They all appear to be counterfeit crap from reading the reviews. Oneplus does not answer emails asking how to purchase an OEM battery for the OPO. So, I guess you are SOL when your battery gets wonky or just old. With phones now being fast enough and good enough to be used for more than 2 years, except for the frigging battery, I am waiting until some manufacturer decides to make one with an easily replaceable battery (and that has good support on XDA) before I purchase another. Until then it's the OPO and my backup Note 4 (which I rarely use since it has awful GPS despite having a replaceable battery and SD card.)
15mths in and my battery life has improved dramatically just by switching to RR. If you're rooted then it's worth trying out another Rom.
Third time lucky for me. Oxygen was by far the worst for me. I couldnt even get to 4pm without a charge up. Since installing RR I'm finding battery life has more than doubled.

One.five year old with max Sot of 4 hrs
Hi dears,
I am on stock Android 8.1 DP2. I barely get 5 to 6 hours on average use and 4 hours of screen on time which is bad for a 3400 mAh battery.
I am planning to root my phone to get the best possible battery performance along with some Pixel 2 features if possible.
Based on your experience, which ROM have it best when it comes to battery life?
It is a bit hard to test all the ROMs
Thanks all.
All the 8.1 ROMs are turning out quite nice. If it's pixel features you want try SuperXe stock version. 4 hours SOT is ok with me the higher amperage charging makes up for the difference.
I know one plus 2 has aged very well but I always have soft side to 1+2. Now since I Switch backed to 1+2. I Experience battery drain ( Max SOT 2.3-3Hours) and gets heated like hell. Will Replacement of battery will do any good? Just tweaking kernel is only option? What's the average SOT you guys get?
2.3-3h SOT is not that bad, a new battery will give you one more hour maybe. The heating problem is normal on op2, it's because of the snapdragon 810.
I personally get 3-4 hours of SOT depending on what apps I'm using.
You may try another rom for more battery, also bluebolt kernel is giving good battery life.
Been using mi rom from start; before the update I used to get standard 10h sot. After an update sot got real bad. so I rolled into custom rom. Used havoc (latest build) not good sot around 5-6h only using moderate things. then went to extended ui by far good sot near 7h still no enough i guess. then tried evolution x 3.5 it was few bugs also not good sot;
so now I rolled back to MIUI 11 global (android 10) 11.0.4 .
i tried calibration still no improvement..
If anyone can help me with this it would be great... TIA
I'm having the same issue, I've already tried MiuiMix, MiGlobe, no ROM seems to be fine, it looks like Android 10 it's draining a lot the battery life...Nothing seems that can be done, I can barely get 4H SOT with this device...I like it a lot but the battery life it's a shame....

Extended Ui Rom 1/18 is the best one to use, i get 9 to 11 hours of SoT.
