Micromax Canvas Gold Battery Drain Issue

Hello everyone,

I have a Micromax A300(Canvas Gold) phone, purchased in Jan 2015. I wasn't facing any battery issues until recently(1st week of March). The battery drains from 100% to 0% in less than half hour and even sooner if I am on a call and have data connected(either 3G or Wi-Fi). I can literally see the battery counter going down like some sort of countdown, it drains that fast. The phone runs on 4.4.2 out of the box and did not receive any updates to the software. I have not installed any additional apps either to trigger such behavior. Can anyone help me out here with a fix, else I will have to hand this over to the service center.

Regards,

Suman

Re: Micromax Canvas Gold Battery Drain Issue

Welcome to Android Central! Charge up to 100%, then let it drain to 20-30% with normal usage, without charging in between. Then show us:

1. The main Settings>Battery screen.
2. The fullscreen battery graph screen (which shows Awake time and Cell Signal Strength).
3. The Screen category (to see total Screen On time).
4. The Cell Standby category, if present (to see Time Without Signal).
