battery draining in 2% increments

[mvasquez009]

So as im sitting here using my phone at work im noticing my battery is draining in two percent increments , just went from 84-82 and now 82 to 80 percent. Ive had my phone since launch and have not had one problem with it up to this point. Has anyone heard of a battery doing this before ?

This is strange, to be sure. Any new apps installed recently? Do your battery usage stats indicate anything strange or different from usual?

The one time I had a heavy drain problem was the day after a Facebook update. After closing and relaunching Facebook and Messenger the problem went away and the battery has been back to fantastic.

Look over the battery usage by app and tell us what you see.

facebook is ur problem. use metal app and uninstall facebook

Facebook says new battery issues can be fixed with an app reset, no update on old battery issues | Android Central

Mine does this occasionally. I think it's just a battery calibration issue and not something to stress. if it happens regularly, try depleting the battery to zero then doing a full, uninterrupted charge to 100%.

My battery has not been anywhere near as good as it was before the January security update. Any one else agree?? I don't have Facebook or messenger so I am not sure what is going on.
