Terrible battery usage

[Parham Goudarzi]

That is awful! I have been using my phone with medium usage. I am down to 7% from 100. 30 minutes of playing modern combat 5 . 30 minutes surfing the Web using Chrome. And 2 hours of chatting and browsing the gallery. That is awful. I have seen people mentioning they have 1 day of medium usage with LTE. But I was completely on WiFi. And right now that I'm typing this post, my battery has gotten down to 5 percent.
I have everything turned of. Motions and gestures, GPS is set to Power saving and....
My old iPad mini lasts longer than this. I live my phone, the great performance it has but, the battery is terrible.
Have any ideas?
And I have been in a strong signal today.

Firstly, I am not a game player so no games on my phone.

I use it quite a bit, but nothing like what you are doing.

I browse the internet using CM Browser which is far better and more efficient than Chrome.

* CM Browser - Fast & Secure - Android Apps on Google Play


I do a lot of news reading and watching TV news videos, some YouTube videos, and a lot of forums which is mostly text.

My phone's battery is rarely below 60% at the end of the day, but has been as low as 35% if I push it a lot harder than usual.

I have all Background services turned OFF.
I always have Sync turned OFF.

I have disabled all of the bloatware that came with the phone, S Health is disabled, parts of Google services are disabled (careful here, Play Store will quit if you turn off the wrong thing )

post up the screen time and battery usage

Here is my performance in the current cycle:



I use Ultra Power Savings Mode when just using telephone and messaging and do not need my other apps.

Without data, all anyone can do is make random guesses about what's using up your battery. Charge you phone to 100% (not 99%, not 90%), unplug it, use it normally until the battery is below 50%, and then capture screen shots of you battery status screens and post them here.

Here's an example of the screens I'm referring to: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...attery-draining-so-quickly-3.html#post3822959

So why in the world would you have smartphone at all with that usage pattern? A Nokia 3300 would be sufficient!

Playing games on any smartphone will suck the battery dry, why you are surprised i'm not sure, as the screen is on for long periods and the CPU is usually maxxed out. For example play any of the graphically rich games and you knock off 30-50% battery in no time. Its the same if you play movies or videos for any length of time. Try using your phone one day without playing combat and then check your batt stats.

Thanks for all of your replies , Tomorrow I will post my statics

It shouldn't do unless it checking for your location constantly.

Can you post a picture of your battery stats?

Why? he's a gamer, so screen time and CPU are draining his battery. Its not rocket science

 

[Parham Goudarzi]

That's it

10hrs uptime and 3hrs screen time, those stats are good considering the gaming you do imo.

Yeah I bet if you tap the time (where it says 10 hours) it will show the screen on and awake from that dive on.. Which is from the game.. So it's definitely going to be the gaming .

We like to ensure all angels are covered and not just assume... We have seen drains from people who play minimal games and it wasn't the game .

Yep I realise that, but in this case it's pretty clear cut

@ Op

As you can see below.. I have rocked my battery hard. Mainly the screen but also I'm constantly streaming via LTE.. Which doesn't help.. But... The screen is always the biggest drain...

So playing games puts the screen on but also the GPU on the phone as well has to work harder... It will kill the battery pretty fast .
