Hi I'm facing kind of same problem but other device HTC one m7 and rom is aicp I don't know what is draining battery in idle time but almost 10 to 20 % is gone in idle and the fun thing is I use airplane mod all the time
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jacob11701:
You guys have to also take in consideration the Lollipop total connection time bug. Apps open up a connection and it won't close it when it's done... For example my first charge cycle I signed into instagram and it used 40% of my battery without me ever open again. The total connection time of most apps ends up being hours when it shouldn't be. That won't be fixed untill Marshmallow comes to the Note 5. Google is aware and has fixed it. It's on multiple Lollipop devices.

I use greenify to hibernate apps but still some thing is going on but marshmallow is coming out soon so I am happy
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jacob11701:
Yea I've used that for a while. When I force stop an app I tend to not see it encounter that bug

If the device is rooted then you can try Greenify to hibernate the apps which are consuming the battery life.Try other simple solutions like disabling the Wifi and other tools when not using them.Sometimes Play services may cause the issue so try to fix them.There are some guides which may help you http://fixdroidbattery.net/fix-fast-battery-drain-problem-on-samsung-galaxy-note-5/

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] saravuthream:
The problem is ...because of the device used to be root although we flash original stock firmware it is still drain when device idle ...you can take a look in Android OS and see stay awake period ...one way is flash custom room that said deep sleep fix . Hope this comment could deal your problem
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carla1983:
Goodmorning, I’d like to root my galaxy Tab 3 GT-P5200 Kitkat 4.4.2, the problem is I can’t find an autoroot file complatible with the Build KOT49H.P5200XXUBNK1 (I took a look here and in Chainfire site) here in XDA forum the guide is old and is not specified if it’s for jelly bean version or kitkat

In chainfire there is an auto-root file for device that running the build KOT49H.P5200XXUBNH2.

My question: may I flash a firmware with the Build compatible with chainfire autoroot file or I can make a mess?

Thanks

Hey guys,

I just want a confirmation if this problem only exists on my phone or rom. The E-Mail app from sony xperia accepts perfectly my mail account but if I setup a second the app returns to main screen (after mail account assistent completed) and displays my first mail account with a short toast message like "mail account not found! Maybe it got deleted".

Phone: Xperia Z C6603

Rom: Link: [ROM][LB/UB][5.1.1 .222][ v1.5.0 ][ Fully Featured! ] Customized Sony 5.1.1

I think this is up to the new E-Mail app from the latest update. Can someone confirm this?

Thanks!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j4GGy:
I have exactly the same problem on my Xperia Z3 Compact (no custom rom). Did you find any fix for it?

Edit: I don't exactly know how I fixed it, but it seems that clearing the apps cache before creating a new email account helped. Also I alternated between creating the account directly in the email app and under Settings -> Accounts...
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] __BJ__:
Yeah found a fix too. Adding an account manually, then add an account with automatic setup (e.g. gmail). After that you can add as much accounts manually as you want and you can delete the automatic setup account too.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcobreros:
I have the exact same problem.

I can add one activesync account (whichever one), but when I try to add the seccond account it just finishes without an error but I can't find it anywhere.

I've tried clearing email app cache but it didn't help.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Six9siX:
Same here

I have working 3 email accounts.

Accidentally cleared cache & data in email app. (wakelock detector)

After that I was able to access only one account.

It passes all settings but only one stay's active.

(I have all google services disabled)

Before smashing the phone tried to re enable all google stuff.

After that (phone reboot etc..)

Now I can put how many emails I want and it work.

Now disabled google again and all 3 emails work.

HELLO.

sorry for my bad English.

I wrote a Google translation.

I have a very big problem.

my P8000 is not working. BOOTLOP

only works CWM recovery.

i cant flash with flash sp tool. downloading not starting.

I install the drivers for MTK

I can not install the rom with recovery ....- bootlop ...

I no longer know what to do.

I have an idea.

I did not do a backup of my stock rom.

Please let someone shares buckup your rom then might be able to save my P8000 with recovery.

Somebody please help.
[Elephone P8000] sharkware:
You have to re-flash ROM.

Stock ROM you can only flash from SP Flash Tools

If SP Flash Tools do not work you probably dont have drivers correctly installed on your PC, so before you can do anything you got to make that work....
[Elephone P8000] blaca87:
ok

in device Manager when i connect powered off phone is written

"mediatek preloader usb vcom port"

it means the drivers are installed????

I have a windows xp
[Elephone P8000] blaca87:
Please can someone give me a backup of elephone p8000 ROM.

If you want to restore anything from RECOVERY MODE then download Eragon ROM.

This is how my Device Manager looks:

See, i still have yellow exclamation marks (unsigned drivers?), but it works for me.

Did you connect it via USB when the phone is powered OFF? It's those drivers that

are important (Preloader USB VCOM)

I suppose you know that phone has to be powered OFF when you connect it for

flashing with SP Flash Tool?

Windows XP MIGHT be diffifult to get drivers working with though...

Time to upgrade ;)

hi can you share your SP driver and short flash tutorial how to flash new stock rom 09092015?. I try to flash my P8000 but i do not have DA USB COM in my device manager. What am i doing wrong?

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Halfbaked156:
Hi!

Phone finds the update, downloads the 600+ mb then restarts for installation then the Update Failed thingy comes up. And after this, while searching for updates it says " You have the latest version". Went to recovery more, reset the phone, then the same thing happens.

Any suggestions?

Or do I just download the 5.1.1 firmware and flash it with Odin?

Any help would be appreciated!
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uzair40:
Download the latest stock firmware, and flash it with Odin.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Halfbaked156:
Thanks for the reply. I guess that's the only alternative before I root. But there's this message in recovery mode "dm-verity verification failed....Need to check DRK first"

No idea what this is, have googled and it is not related to the problems shown on the web. Phone is not rooted, still official firmware.

So, is it safe to flash the latest firmware through Odin or will it brick my phone?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uzair40:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rotunda440:
Hi all

I tried going to a Lollipop ROM on my S2 but I only managed to change the recovery, the ROM didn't work (boot loop) so I used ODIN to revert back to the stock ROM (i9100XWLSW) wiped both the data and dalvik cache. I did also have Kingroot installed during all this and I installed it again after flashing the stock ROM but I've since removed that too with another write of the stock ROM via ODIN.

The problem I'm having now is Whatsapp and other apps won't actually do anything if the device is asleep. The WiFi appears to be connected, logo is present at the top if i wake the device but it takes about 10 - 30 seconds of being inside an app (such as Whatsapp) for anything to happen. I'm not sure if this is a WiFi issue or some sort of app issue across the board? I woke up today at 9am checked my phone there was nothing on it. It was only at 10:30am when I went to send a Whatsapp message to someone and opened the app manually that i had messages come in from 8am that morning. I also use Whatsapp Web and some times it won't connect to the phone via WiFi even if the device is awake. I have to reboot and try again. Although if it's connected via Whatsapp Web and asleep messages come in no problem at all both on the PC and the phone??!!!!

It's doing it constantly now, at the start it was touch and go but now it's all the time i have to constantly check the app for messages to come in. This happens on other apps too.

What's going on? Have i damaged my device some how from the flashing process? I'm pretty familiar with ODIN as I used to flash my old Galaxy Apollo all the time but never had this problem.

I was going to get a new phone but I actually really like my S2 and it actually keeps up with most of the phones in my price range and in some cases (camera, AMOLED screen, storage, sometimes RAM) it is better than the new stuff!

Any idea's please?

[Moto 360 2015] Mister-B:
After having the Moto 2nd gen for a day I'm pleasantly surprised at the battery life. On my 1st gen Moto I usually got just under 10 hours of battery with the ambient mode on. My 2nd gen has been on for over 20 hours and the battery is down to 46%. The screen has been on the whole time except from midnight until I put it back on this morning. This may be a new feature whereby the Moto can detect if it is being actively worn or just lying on a desk at night.
[Moto 360 2015] iggdawg:
Overall battery life has been stellar on my 42mm Gen2. My only issue with it is that at or shortly after it hits 15% it shuts down automatically and won't turn back on till it's charged up for a couple minutes. basically I don't get the last 15% of the battery. I exchanged my first unit and this one does the same thing. I've had it for 4 days now, and going through a few full charge cycles hasnt changed anything.
[Moto 360 2015] catachresistant:
Strange. My unit definitely doesn't do this.

I've not had a smartwatch before so the rate of decrease is a little alarming for me. I can still get through a day no problem though - perhaps I could even stretch it to two if it's fully charged in the morning.

What disappoints me is the speed with which it recharges. Since the battery is tiny, I assumed it would recharge within an hour. Instead it seems to charge slower than my HTC One M7, which is notorious for being the slowest charging phone of all time.
[Moto 360 2015] jonasmckee:
Never owned smartwach, impressed by battery life

I bought the 46 and for 3 full days never ran out of battery and and 20 to 30% left at bedtime, ambient on wrist gestures off.. i am playing with it like mad so it will even get better i assume.. but loving it
[Moto 360 2015] Bladder61:
Only on my first day, but so far battery is far superior to original Moto 360 and even rivals my LG G watch R performance. With ambient on, and moderate use (emails/text/weather) I am seeing 3% battery drain per hour (8.5 hours use with 74% remaining).

I will give a more thorough update once I have spend a few days with it.
[Moto 360 2015] studdmufin:
Odd my 46mm is at 22% and it has been about 12 hours. Seems a bit short compared to what you guys are getting. Granted I have all the features turned on (ambient display, gestures, etc) It is my first full day with the watch. I'll see how well it does tomorrow maybe just the first drain needs to calibrate the battery. View attachment 3494810
[Moto 360 2015] StykerB:
I don't have a graph for it but having it on from 10 to 10 (12 hours) mine went 100 to 71% surprised the hell outa me considering the day before was 80 to 30% in about 4-5 hours granted that was with setup and fiddling with apps and whatnot. If it didn't make such a damn nice little nightstand clock I'd have just left it sitting for the night. This is with ambient on gestures on wifi auto and all the heart monitor junk off on the 46mm model.
[Moto 360 2015] Mister-B:
I got 44 hours out of mine yesterday with ambient on and gestures off. I'm still observing the screen going off if the watch is just lying around somewhere. Funnily nobody else seems to be mentioning this.
[Moto 360 2015] delcopa:
How did you turn off the heart monitor stuff? I didn't see any options for this either in fit or moto body. Even checked the android wear app and the connect app. I do see it is checking heart rate at least once an hour or more at times, and just checked it and found it checking every 5 minutes now.

Want bad the other day checking every hour still got 2 days use, but noticed it last night and today when the battery was only going max a day.
[Moto 360 2015] studdmufin:
Day 2 of battery. About 12 hours and it is at 38%. Ambient and gestures on. Curious as to what you guys are doing for substantially better battery life. I am going to try turning off ambient tomorrow. View attachment 3495890
[Moto 360 2015] murdok83:
i think it would be better if you mentioned the model you have since the battery is bigger in the 46mm model
[Moto 360 2015] Bladder61:
I have a 46mm Moto (400mah battery). I use 3rd party watchfaces and run ambient (always on), auto brightness, and receive approx 40 emails and a dozen text messages in a normal day. I don't use tilt to wake as I can always see the watchface in ambient, and wifi is off. I pulled off the charger this morning at 7:15am and now at 11:30pm I am at 47% approx 3.6% drain per hour. Have had the watch now for 4 days. This rivals the performance I get out of my LG G watch R. Must say I am very happy with battery life so far.
[Moto 360 2015] zettajon:
Can anyone with a 42mm tell me how the battery is with ambient off and gestures on?
[Moto 360 2015] stevenlong:
Wow, I have had the 46mm watch for two days and both days it had died by 1pm after pulling it from the charger a 3am, not even close to 12 hrs :(

I do use it with endomondo for about an hour in the morning but still, have ambient turned off. Guess I'll try turning off the gestures and see if it might last a day.
[Moto 360 2015] Mister-B:
My best day with the 46mm was the day before yesterday. Took it off the charger around 9AM on Monday. Put it back on charge around 9PM on Tuesday. Ambient On, Gestrues and WiFi off. Still had about 20% left but had to charge it for the next day. BTW my 46mm Moto 2 charges just fine with the first gen charger.
[Moto 360 2015] stevenlong:
My batter life goes from horrible to ok for no reason.

Last night my watch hit 100%charge at around 1am. I took it off the charger and set it on the table. I just over 4.5 hours it was under 25%. Using Wear Battery Stats I see no app activity, and the screen states watch is "Off".

I charge it back up when I got up to 52% before I went out on a 1+ hour workout using endomondo, listening to audible. Both applications were showing on the watch when I check (distance for endomondo and play controls for audible). This only took it down 9%.

This makes no sense.

Think I need to contact customer support or just return it as defective?

Thanks
[Moto 360 2015] SallyC:
I have heard that lithium batteries have the best life span if you don't let them discharge too far. For example, a battery put on the charger more frequently - say 50% - will last longer than one where you wait unil 20%.

This comes from the RC helicopter community where they monitor battery life and performance pretty closely. I'm wondering if anyone knows data about this with watches?
[Moto 360 2015] iggdawg:
What you mention is a good guideline for maximizing battery life. Linked below is a great article I commonly come back to and share out to others regarding lithium battery life.

The advice I usually give is to "fully" discharge the battery once per initial setup or factory reset, and then fully charge it overnight. This will give the OS a good handle on the upper and lower charge parameters to properly report available battery percentage. Most of the onboard controllers for batteries keep them from getting too close to fully charged or discharged, so regardless of what's being reported to the user. The user only needs to be concerned with this middle area they have to play with since they'll never see the "full" capacity of the battery. but even though we never see the "full" 300mah or 400mah, we see the same middle area of each, so from a comparative standpoint these numbers are still valid to extrapolate relative available capacity. if that makes any sense.

Anyways, the short version is that most smart devices already manage the charge cycle pretty well since most smart device users are just dumb users. So if we calibrate the batteries we use with a full charge and discharge cycle, then just use the devices like dumb users, we're probably just fine.

http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries
[Moto 360 2015] SallyC:
Interesting article, and accompanying links. I believe they are saying the same thing as the RC helicopter folks - don't overly discharge, do frequently recharge:

It's fun to see "how long you can go" without recharging, but it might not be the best practice.
[Moto 360 2015] lecca:
Hello guys,

I'm willing to buy the 46mm. We always talk about autonomy of smartwatch but I'd be interested to understand what affects the battery of the smartphone in% after a full day always connected Bluetooth?

Thank you in advance

[Moto 360 2015] phiz118:
JFYI - Turn off Moto Body. It's in the app settings on your watch. That was taking between 20-30% of my battery life on the 42mm!!! I think it's due to taking your heart rate every 5 minutes. Google Fit doesn't do that. Before turning it off, I would make it 18ish hours before needing to recharge (i.e. <15%). After turning it off, I could have gone over 24 hours easy.

Second, after it gets below 15%, it will turn ambient mode off. It might make you think the watch died, but it didn't. Just tap it and it will wake back up.
[Moto 360 2015] iggdawg:
Something may have been wonnky on your watch. Moto Body usually reports 1-3% of battery usage at the end of a given day on my unit. It's been my experience that Moto Body doesn't tend to eat a whole lot of battery.

I don't think the heart rate monitor really eats much battery. For example, my FitBit Charge HR polls continuously (like, 24/7, even when I'm sleeping) and I get about 5 days out of its battery. The two LEDs are brighter on the FitBit, and the battery is certainly a lot smaller.
