Looking for Some Battery Guidance Please - Performance is Really Poor

[John Venables]

Hi All.....

Looking for some help with the life of my Battery, It has been unplugged since 6am full charged, its now 1pm and its sitting at 30%...so currently, its been unplugged for 7hrs and its already 30%

My usage today has been almost nothing(or at least I think almost nothing) couple of whatsapp messages, couple of facebook messanger messages, email through Inbox(Google) with default settings and Gmail(for my Hotmail Addresses) set to every hour for mail check. I have played about 30mins on a couple of games in total(Dragon City & Monster Legends) and that is about it.

Currently on Android 5.0

Looking at the batery use section, it tells me I have 5hrs left of usage on battery, 3h til full charge and use levels below

Screen 36%
Android OS 11%
Monsters 8%
Android system 8%
Google Services 6%
Cell Standby 5%
Facebook 2%
Dragon City 2%
Gmail 2%
Facebook Messanger 1%
Phone Idle 1%

This is the 2nd battery i have tried, the 1st one(original) was even worse.

Surely this cant be okay, Is there any tools that can check the health of my battery & any tweaks I can use that would assist without changing the way I use my phone too much or what would be the point?

Any help would be appreciated

Cheers

John

Better Battery Stats This is very helpful if rooted.

GSAM Battery Monitor This is recommended to view stats. Way better than the stock battery information.

You can get the free versions of these if you wish.
