I generally use chrome for browsing and battery drain is inconsistent. Usually it is very fast and i have to charge twice in a day, but occasionally it's great and lasts much longer. I cannot figure out what's different on the days it lasts longer.
View 4 RepliesI don't understand what is happening with my 4 month old XPERIA RAY..I've changed the battery with the new one, switch off my phone and full charged it and when i've starded the phone the state of the battery was 96%. After 5-6 hours with data activated, no GPS, no WiFi, no Bluetooth the phones turn off (0%) Can't believe that's normal.When i've bought the XPERIA RAY, i've 2 days before my battery goes empty... And now the phone is heater than before.Is XPERIA RAY a big s**t like my first ps3?
View 8 Replies View RelatedSo when I opened up my battery usage I noticed that Android OS was at 70% usage (69% now in screenshots). I check my battery usage several times throughout the day and Android OS was not consuming 70%. It seemed to spike to 70% consumption, which points to an error in battery usage charts.
The steeper drops at the beginning and toward the end can be attributed to the poor reception areas I was in and my heavier screen on time during those periods. The flat portion in the middle is when I went to bed and left my phone for about 8 hours. Notice there are no huge wake locks during my time off battery.
This is my current screen on time....
I'm guessing this is an error with the battery usage calculator but I'm not completely sure. How to know if this is an error with the battery usage or is Android OS really consuming 70% and how I should fix it?

I'm having a serious battery drain problem with my Neo. It seems to drain very quickly within 8 hours sometimes less, and when it gets to about 30% it will suddenly say "no sim card", the battery icon flashes red and then all power goes completely and have to recharge. When the 'phone is switched on and idle, it gets VERY warm, never mind about being used.

View 9 Replies View RelatedThe battery of my xperia mini pro got depleted during an update attempt, and since then it won't turn on, charge, nor be recognized by my computer through the USB cable connection. Hence the PC companion won't recognize it as well. It doesn't vibrate or turn any lights on, just gets a little bit hotter when connected for a long period of time.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've updated my Neo to ICS 4.04 recently and since then apart from LED notiffications not working the stock Email app (not gmail) sync is not working. It was working earlier in GB. I configured my gmail using the email app and set the refresh interval to 1 hour but it never syncs or refreshes. It worked perfectly in GB. SONY fix this issue as I'm missing some important mails.
2. The media server is draining a lot of battery without me listening to any music. I really don't know why that's happening. I did repair my phone after ICS update but still this issue. I don't listen to songs on my phone as I have a music player but media server consumption is around 10 % and that pretty high.
Is it normal to drain 18% in 1 and a half hour with constantly use (radio, messenger, and 1-2 more apps) lowest brightness .. Im always thinking its draining too fast.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI had been using my Z2 for 1 and a half year. everything goes very fine until dew days ago. It suddenly goes into blackscreen while pressing power button/ power + vol. up does not work. I need to dock/charge it for like few secs to make it "alive". I tried reset phone to factory settings, and it still the same.
Tried repair through Sony PC Companion, but it takes FOREVER to download and i just give up this (I have totally no issue at all with my connection. I was browsing youtube, playing games, scrolling facebook etc. without any internet latency problems so definitely will not be my network problem). Then today, it restarted again, so i tried docking it (it was abt 90% remaining). once i dock it, it displays with very low battery (its like less than 10%).....
I received my phone week ago i notice that every thing works fine but battery drain so fast. Even with the stamina mode on and brightness is very low and i also set the auto brightness. I also updated my phone to new version but it still same I also clear the stamina mode app settings and when i checked that which app using more battery there no app there. I install same apps which is install in my z3 but z3 give atleast 1 day or like 20hrs battery the why i use it normally the way I use it .

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have purchased xperia z2 last october in India. The phone was all fine until last few weeks. From past two weeks the phone heats up for no reason. Even using whatsapp for half an hour is heating the phone to such an extent that i cant touch it. I cant use the phone for anything now. Keeping it on for more than 20 mins is heating the phone without doing anything. Is this any problem from the recent app updates? Or is somthing wrong with my phone? And maximum battery drain is always from screen.
View 3 Replies View RelatedOver the last 24 hours i've notice my Xperia Z2's battery is draining very quickly, even when asleep. Even when it is plugged in charging, i keep getting messages saying the phone is unable to charge as it is using too much power. And previously i could charge the phone overnight fully, now it doesn't get close to 40%
In addition to this I've noticed it is kicking out a lot of heat at the top of the phone, and also i can no longer connect to the internet via wifi.
Everything else seems ok, and i have managed to back up my data to an sd card. I haven't added any new apps recently.
I've had the phone for less than a year and as far as i know it hasn't had any heavy drops or anything.
I'm with a 5.0.2 D6603. The issue I have is that the following Kernel wakelocks does not allow the phone to deep sleep.
msm_serial_hs_dma
BTLowPower
I've just performed a sw repair via pc companion, and several factory reset. I'm running the Z3 with no apps.
It happens both with an LG G Watch R (5.0.2) and a regular BT Plantronics (voice only) headset. Using the same BT devices with a Nexus 4, Nexus 10 and an LG G2 does not have the same effect. As soon as there is no usage the phone goes to sleep immediately.
If we take the second device, I do expect a Kernel wakelock while speaking or streaming music. The phone is active any way while performing this task. What is strange is that even if there is no activity the wakelocks avoid deep sleep.
What is strange is that if I move away from the headset (and the BT icon goes the "non connected" status), the wakelocks are always there. The effect is that my phone (both on 4.4.4 and 5.0.2) almost never ever sleeps, and sometimes get warm. It is evident that the battery life affected a lot. If I switch BT off, everything goes back to normal.
I did a further test, in the below sequence:
- BT ON + connected to a Plantronics headset => wakelock + device always on
- BT ON + disconnected to a Plantronics headset => wakelock + device always on
- BT OFF + disconnected to a Plantronics headset => no wakelock + device sleep
- BT ON + disconnected to a Plantronics headset => wakelock + device always on
My z3 (NTTDOCOMO)is brand new and working fine but after couple of uses i realize after i charge at night and unplug , in the morning battery is around 78%-80% only things battery gone is for idle and screen(**bleep**).

Also im missing the download manager app the app that show what you downloaded . Its uninstallable also its running inside Since on apps it isn't disabled. My friends have z3s and they all have it on apps except me ... why?
Nexus 5, 16GB, MRA58N (stock, not rooted). Sometimes the power percentages shown for each process in the battery monitor do not add up to the total battery drain? I am finding that sometimes they add up to within 1% of the total shown.... and sometimes they are WAY off with as much as 30% of the displayed battery drain unaccounted for. Since I don''t have access to the battery terminals, I can't determine independently whether the percentages shown are simply inaccurate, or whether there are missing processes (ie., processes not shown at all in the battery monitor).
View 10 Replies View RelatedI deleted both my Facebook app and messenger, and I had much better battery life for a few days. Now however, my sot is barely at 2 1/2 hours again, and my top usage is chrome. It's pretty frustrating because I stopped using Facebook altogether, and in still having poor battery. I think chrome is not letting it doze.

View 24 Replies View RelatedPrevious smart phones I owned turned wifi off when the screen went dead. So essentially wifi didn't really drain any battery and wifi was easier on the battery then 3g when actively pulling down data.
So now I am on a 2gb plan (previously on unlimited) and sensitive to this I keep my wifi on all the times to use my home connection when possible.My battery however is barely getting through a full day. My wife was getting solid days but she had wifi off.Do you think that this is effecting it? I use my phone quite a bit throughout the day.
