[Asus ZenWatch 2] bossman137:
When i first got mine, 1.45in version, with always on screen, wrist gesture to wake, and screen on medium brightness enabled it wouldn't make it through 3/4 of the day.... just terrible. I tried it for two days and no luck. I then realized that i really didn't like or need the always on screen mode (especially since a touch or wrist gesture will show the time just as well). When i turned that off, it more than trippled my battery life. I use it very often now and at midnight i am at 50%.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] raremind:
I'll give that a shot, but I had great battery life for week then it stopped. I am not sure it will make a difference or not since I changed nothing and added nothing to the watch. It just went from awesome battery life to horrible battery life overnight....
[Asus ZenWatch 2] re-2007:
plz can anybody tell me is Asus ZenWatch2 watch have a speaker to make call ??? thanks in advance
[Asus ZenWatch 2] raremind:
The watch has no speaker. In fact I don't think you will ever see a smartwatch with a speaker to make calls. Use a bluetooth head set with the watch and that would solve your issue. Also I appreciate you hi-jacking my thread though, god knows it's hard to start your own.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] dabombcra:
I read it has a speaker, but Android Wear doesn't support it right now

The Samsung Gear 2 and Gear S you can make and receive phone calls. I have the gear 2 Neo and I can answer my phone using my watch because it does have a speaker. It works rather nicely.

Let's stay on the topic here.

I noticed that the battery was draining from 50 to 0 overnight. Watch idle was the culprit.

So what I did is change watch face from Zenwatch to ustwo and noticed huge improvement.

Can someone test this out? Could it be an issue with Asus watch faces?

Thanks
[Asus ZenWatch 2] raremind:
OK So here is what I found. Using what [MENTION=395998]chrisb22[/MENTION] wrote, If I reboot the watch in the morning just after removing it from the charger battery goes into awesome mode. Meaning, past two days 7 AM to 10 PM ending the day at 68%, 70% respectively. Today at 7 AM I did not do the reboot, pulled it off the charger and started my day as usual. It is now 1:15 PM and I am at 27% Battery left. Looks to be a exponential battery drain bug in the software. [MENTION=2769332]danix180[/MENTION] it very well could be the face. I am going to try the reboot tomorrow to confirm that I am not have the drain. If it gives me amazing battery life again I will try the Face and update.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] dabombcra:
I have found the more colorful the watch face, the battery drains quicker. Try a watchface that has a black background and see if this helps.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] jon7701:
My watch had terrible battery life out of the box. A factory reset seemed to have fixed that. I also disabled google play services' keep awake permission on my phone (which vastly improved my phones standby time by more than 4x or more). I have always on screen on and am now at 57% after about 15 hrs (maybe a bit more). My biggest battery killer is watch idle at 8%, followed by something with no name or icon at 6%, then Android system at 3% and screen at 2%. Oled displays really dont use much battery when 90% of your display is black. I am hoping we can get root sometime so i can remove the unnecessary Asus apps such as asus weather, wellness and UP which may help a bit as well since they show up on my usage stats sometimes.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] danix180:
I can confirm once again that some asus watch faces are really what's causing the battery drain overnight. Last night it drained from 100 to 0 with the Gravity face.

With any other non Asus face overnight drain is 10% tops.. It could be one of those asus app like weather or wellness that's actually causing the issue
[Asus ZenWatch 2] cozboogie:
Just picked up my ZenWatch 2 over the weekend. Like others, I initially had great battery life but starting today it totally took a dive. I rebooted the watch and it seems to have slowed the burn rate dramatically. Will probably just get into the habit of rebooting it on a routine basis.

late,

Coz
[Asus ZenWatch 2] pbaumi:
Where can you check, what is causing the battery drain in android wear? 3rd party app?
[Asus ZenWatch 2] jon7701:
Android wear app, click the settings cog in the top right corner, where it says Asus zenwatch 2 connected click it and then click watch battery.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] myet01@gmail.com:
I use a WatchMaker face and my watch has been draining terribly, perhaps lasting 12 hours at most. I just started rebooting it every morning after taking it off the charger and now it lasts all day and into the next. I haven't changed to a built in watch face yet but that will be my next troubleshooting step.

[Asus ZenWatch 2] DollarStrawz:
Hey guys just got my zenwatch 2.. upgraded from a pebble. but so far its been a downgrade :( The battery I feel is defective. First day it made it about 6-7 hours. Second day it went to 6% in about 4 hours!! I have wrist gestures off and screen always on- off. its pretty much unusable I really wanted to make it work and I'm going to try a few more days . Then today I left it on the charger for like 6 hours and battery was reading at 92%??? I pull it off....boom drops 1% the other day I'd pull notification shade down and read bat. push it up and pull it down again and it would drop another point. It's crazy!!! I thiink I need to send it back to ASUS. I wish I could root it and throw another simple ROM or something. I really like the watch and was looking forward to android wear. Maybe its back to pebble. Any suggestions? and or will there be a root/rom for this watch do you guys think?. Thanks glad you guys are here to cry to lol
[Asus ZenWatch 2] pbaumi:
O.k. this sounds like a faulty device. especially the drop to 1%!

My Zenwatch2 lasts arount 24hours including sleep tracking during the night and charge every morning in the office. The charging cycle needs about an hour.

Battery drain was huge in the first 3 days because of constant fiddling with my new toy - i had to charge twice a day :D
[Asus ZenWatch 2] pbaumi:
Additional note: The zenwatch 2 has WiFi support built in. I had to ask google WHY this could be needed?! WiFi allows you to get notifications, even if you are out of reach of your telephone (BT-Connection broken). This also uses some battery - the zenwatch even notified me, it had disabled WiFi to use less battery. Could only be helpful in my own house, when the smartphone is out of reach. I changed the wlan timeout from the default 120 minutes to 15 minutes.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] jon7701:
I agree with [MENTION=2552093]pbaumi[/MENTION], this sounds like you got a bad device. Even when I had terrible battery life, my watch would still last about 8 hours with screen always on. I have screen always on and went from 86% to 48% in about 9 hours. Thats actually the worst ive seen it at for a few days as well.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] DollarStrawz:
Sorry what I meant is that it lost 1% right when I pulled it off. But after a couple cycles its getting a lot better. that first day was wild though. Thanks guys!! so whens root?? lol
[Asus ZenWatch 2] pbaumi:
same behaviour on my watch - but not occasionally. Every time I disconnect the charger, it drops from 100% to 99%.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Acill:
Thats normal behavior for a charger. The battery protection circut turns off the charger as its charging when full and will turn on again as it drops down. What you see is that in between moment.

I just got the 2nd gen Zenwatch after finding my original starting dumping at just after noon. I pull it off at 6:30am as I leave for work. Today is the first day with the Zenwatch 2 and I went from 100% to 80% now in only 3 hours. I am thinking this will go back and I am done with Zenwatches.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] alrosal:
Was having the same problem but after a factory reset and settings tweaks I would easily get two days. I find that wifi is a drain and not really necessary unless Im going to leave my phone in another room in the house. Also turned off gestures and screen always on. Last night I charged it and had android sleep running all night. Woke up at 84% was able to charge it to 95% before leaving for errands. Its now 5 hours later and I am at 75%
[Asus ZenWatch 2] gumbyx84:
Are you using ambient mode? If so what watch face are you using? If I used it for sleep tracking, I'd get about 24 hours with mine. I ambient mode with animated watch faces, a screen turn-off time of 5 seconds, and have brightness set to 2 or 3.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] raremind:
So I have done some extensive testing over the past 10 days. I tested many different things from watch faces to rebooting to notifications and WiFi. For all of the initial testing I did, I disconnected the watch from everything including notifications and turned off WiFi.

First I tried the watch face theory, I used 2 different faces for my experiment. What was done is at 7 AM I would reboot the watch on the charger, change the watch face, disconnect from the charger, and log the battery usage at 10 PM. I went from simple to elaborate. The changes from watch face to watch face were nominal. I saw an average .034% shift in battery use between the different watch faces.

Second I tried 3 days of different use from super light to majorly heavy. This was much more significant but not a major issue. Again at 7 AM I would reboot the watch on the charger, change the settings, disconnect from the charger, and log the battery usage at 10 PM.

Day one - Light use; Check time, priority notifications. 18% battery drain

Day two - Normal use; Check time, all notifications, respond to some texts, minor use within menus. 29% battery drain

Day three- Heavy use; Check time constantly, voice search and responding to all texts, GPS use on 45 minute drive. 46% battery drain

Significant but seems normal.

Third thing I did was no reboot, two experiments both 3 days. This time at 7 AM I would disconnect from the charger, Normal everyday use, and log the battery usage at 10 PM, plug it back into the charger.

Day one; 27% Battery Drain

Day two; 57% Battery Drain

Day three; 2% left on battery at 4:37 PM, Changed for exactly 30 minutes to 79% Battery and the battery was at 9% at 10 PM

Second run

Day one; 22% Battery Drain

Day two; 58% Battery Drain

Day three; 2% left on battery at 5:12 PM, placed back on charger

Day four, 2% left on battery at 1:48 PM

I am 100% sure the battery drain is a progressive software leak somewhere in the OS or a bad resistor on the board. The longer you keep the watch on without rebooting the faster the battery drains. I now have the arduous task of figuring out what is causing it. I would love to know if this is just a percentage of watches having this issue or all of them.

Also I need to add that I am going to test the the differences between a power down and restart (which is what I did for these tests) and a reboot from menu. If the reboot from menu doesn't stop the drain it is most likely software causing the issue.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] danix180:
Thanks for your thorough investigation ☺.

But what I noticed is that the battery drain only happens when the watch is idle. For instance when I leave it sitting overnight on the table.. It can literally go from 100 to 0 in hours
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Voivod73:
Tanks raremind

Raremind,, i would like to know if you were using the Asus Zenwatch manager or not. also, your screen always on were at off or not and finally your gestures was on or off

Thanks again !
[Asus ZenWatch 2] ethnicomm:
Constant refreshes uses up battery?

In addition to the black screen recommendation, I believe that reducing the need to constantly refresh helps as well. Don't use a watch face with a second hand or seconds display. Is there is a flashing display, that'll kill the battery as well. I haven't done the awesome rigorous testing that others have done here but I have read a lot about this when researching how to make my Pebble last the day. Same principles should apply to all smartwatches.

I'm getting about 1.5 days on my zenwatch 2. This is before wifi off which I'm going to start doing as well.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] raremind:
Sorry I haven't had much time to hit the site. With all of my testing ambient mode was off so no always on screen. the Zenwatch manager is an extension of Wear. It runs just like any of the face apps you download. It has no connection to the watch beyond the interface to the Android Wear api. So changes you make in the Zenwatch manager use the Android Wear api to process the changes. No direct connection.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] ichikun:
Hi, I just bought zenwatch 2. And the battery won't charge to 100%

It stuck at 84%

Anybody have the same problem?
[Asus ZenWatch 2] neezy13:
Try draining it all the way to 0% and recharge it. If that doesn't work, perform a factory reset.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] ASUSGUY:
The ZenWatch 2 update is what killing the battery

I tried factory reset, installed none of the apps, and i can barely reach 3 hours !

Used to last me up to 2 days, it's not the case anymore.

Damn ASUS, they always do that.

[Asus ZenWatch 2] bernie90:
So i just got an ASUS Zenwatch 2 'holiday edition' Model# WI501Q yesterday and the battery isn't lasting. Yesterday when I started using it I had 3 updates come through which I did and then I had another one come through this morning which I also did. I had 100% battery at 5am and now at 12pm I only have 50% battery - screen always on is set to off and screen timeout is set at 10 seconds. My watch face has a black background and I don't really use it that much to warrant this amount of battery usage I believe. Is there anything you can recommend to get my battery to last a whole day? Thanks :)
[Asus ZenWatch 2] jshamlet:
That's really not normal. Mine is configured similarly (always off, short timeout), and I usually get home at the end of the day with 82-84% (7 am to 6 pm). I do have WiFi turned off, though. You might try that.

I have noticed that if I am driving or walking a lot, it causes the screen to come on a lot, which does in the battery. I usually turn gestures off when driving long distances as a result.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] bernie90:
Thanks, how do I turn off WiFi?
[Asus ZenWatch 2] jshamlet:
Go into Settings -> WiFi > Wifi: Automatic. If you select that, it will offer to turn off WiFi - hit the accept/check. Alternately, you can go into Advanced and set a timeout.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] leap_ahead:
Just let it 1 day and after you will see that battery is better

I unfortunately dropped my Moto X Pure today and ruined my screen. I'm on T-Mobile and have their Premium Handset Protection insurance, so I called and filed a claim. The phone wasn't listed in their system and the rep I spoke with had never heard of it. She submitted my claim anyway and told me they would contact me with next steps. Has anyone gone through this process? Did Assurant approve the claim? If so, how much of a deductible did you have to pay? Did you get a new phone or a refurbished one? How long did it take them to get it to you?

I'm now regretting having bought the phone through Amazon and just relying on my T-Mobile insurance instead of buying it through Motorola and getting their Moto Care Protection plan.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blice:
hy

First of all i want to say two things:

1. This thread was opened after reading 179 similar threads and browsed all 260 pages of q&a answers

on the galaxy tab 2 and other several threads on Samsung products with similar symptoms.

2. Thank you in advance to however is able to resolve this issues, not only for me, but for several others.

the section is full of similar problems with no answer whatsoever.

The story:

My Samsung p5110 WiFi only (stock firmware), started to restart randomly and at one point froze at the Samsung logo.

I was able to enter in download mode, and with odin i "managed" to load the firmware for p5100.

And that was the mistake. at restart started to display: “Firmware upgrade encountered an issue.

Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again“. But kies does not connect and recognize the device at all.

so out of the question to salvage the device in that mode.

Odin still recognizes the device, so i was able to load several stock firmwares:

P5110XXBLH4_P5110OXXBLH3_HOME.tar.md5

P5110XWALD4_P5110OXXALD5_HOME.tar.md5

P5110XXDNB1_P5110COADNB1_HOME.tar.md5

everything goes ok, it says pass, but there is no restarting, the screen goes black. when i turn it on

the same thing: "firmware upgrade.....

Tried to load CWM and TWRP recovery in order to delete everything in the device, installed ok but

no effect, it is not launching, only: "firmware upgrade....

I want to point out that USB mode was to enabled do to the fact that the tablet broke so it was not

planned, i have uninstalled kies and installed the samsung and omap drivers now, same results, and tried

all the usb ports.

I am running out of ideas and other suggestion i haven't found on this site up until now, so any

constructive help and comments will be welcomed by me and more than likely by the others in

my situation.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zte blade l:
use odin in this way

well i had the same problem with my GT-P3113

there is one way i know to solve this which worked for me.

1. flash TWRP/CWM

a)first make sure that you find the rooted md5 firmware for your device.

[this is my 5th post so i cannot add links. so you can always search in xda for other threads regarding your device's rooted md5 so that you can flash using odin.]

b)now flash the rooted md5 using odin

c) flash TWRP/CWM Using odin(i would prefer CWM)

d)then downlaod a custom rom for your device and place it in your sd card.

e)flash it using your recovery

f)now try rebooting and you should go into the new rom

g)now check usb debugging in the settings>about device>touch on build number 7 times>you will see developer options>check usb debugging.

h)now try flashing the original stock firmware using odin

CONGRATS YOU HAVE SOLVED THE PROBLEM OF YOUR DEVICE

NOTE:if you still have any problem with booting or if you are stuck in the boot logo try going to recovery and do a factory reset.

if still you have any questions let me know.
