Battery drainage?

[xGromiTx]

Hello all,

Usually i am lurking around but two days ago i got my phone from repairs and ... well the PrtSc can explain it better:

Mediaserver 12% (sync is off)
Device idle 12%
Android OS and Android system 20%
... if any1 can help reduce those numbers... well you have a beer from me!

Regards.


I have like 12 apps installed, the regular like fb etc and just 2 games lazers and gears of time.

You haven't given us enough information to go on. You should include the following 3 screenshots at a minimum:We need to see the top portion of the screen, showing the graph with total time.Tap on the graph area to expand that view so that we can see what your signal quality was like.At a minimum, include the detailed view of the screen (and any other big hitters).

And 19 hours with 43% left. What kind of battery life do you expect to get? There's nothing wrong with your phone.

So are ya saying if my phone remains idle for almost couple of hours and drains 4%, it is normal???

No what i meant to ask is the battery draining rate since my remained idle in most of the time.
M looking for deep analysis.

We're saying that the one screenshot that shows almost 2 hours elapsed and 96% remaining is pretty much a useless data point.
The other 3 screenshots that show 18 hours of use make it appear that there's nothing wrong with your phone - for very little usage, that seems an appropriate use of the battery.

Why screen is sucking my battery too much? I mean it is over 25.

The screen is one of the biggest battery hogs on the phone (along with cellular radio/mobile data radio) - it's not unusual for the Screen to be listed at ~29% usage for ~19 hours of ON time. The only real thing you can do to reduce the Screen numbers (other than not using the screen, which is rather pointless) is to reduce the brightness as much as possible.
I leave my brightness at the lowest setting possible when indoors and the screen remains generally readable. You can try something like Display brightness: http://market.android.com/details?id=rubberbigpepper.DisplayBrightnessPro (there's also a free version), which makes it easy/quick to adjust your brightness even if you're in the middle of a game. If you use the phone alot in dim/dark settings you may even want to adjust the brightness down further using something like Screen Filter: https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...tore/apps/details?id=com.haxor&token=_KKYXzHJ

I'm using my phone at Auto brightness and it is works good rather than pointing it manually at lowest. And one of the reason not adjusting brightness
manually is in sunlight ya can hardly see anything. And if you are walking out in the streets ya have to run and find a place where light is dim, that makes it worrisome n irksome. So it's always better to keep the phone on autobrightness.

Yes, it's normal for your battery to drain when the phone it turned on. It's never truly "idle." The OS is always running in the background, waiting for anything that might request OS services. The radio(s) are on, checking in with cell towers, connecting to or maintaining a WiFi or BT connection. Apps like email, Facebook, and many more sync in the background. The only time your phone is truly idle is if it's turned off.

Understand that this isn't a "phone." It's a pocket sized computer. And just like a laptop, if its on its using power.

there was a phone update a few days ago i installed
and i updated all applications i have
now my baterry seems to be discharging much quicker?

Was it charged to 100% before you unplugged it 6hr and 24 minutes previous? If not, the stats being displayed include usage prior to the last charge, and you really can't read a lot into this. To reset the battery stats, and get an accurate indication of use, you need to charge to 100% and then unplug.
