So I think whatever the issue was it had to be with my modules because when I went in safe mode everything was fine. I flashed back to stock, unrooted. So far so good. I still find that the screen drains the battery somewhat. But the battery like is back to acceptable.

I got almost 5 hours of SOT (4:48 mins) the other day. Wifi, 4GLTE, Bluetooth on. However, I'm on the OP3Lite rom, don't know if that plays a role or not. I could of gotten longer battery life but I kept restarting my phone to get V4A to work from different sources. I'll screenshot next go around without any restart.

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nickporwal:
Battery is same with 3.1.2 and 3.2.0.

It's great. Guys if you will use LTE, battery is not going to be very good. But its the case with every smartphone. Given 3000 mah battery, op3 is performing quite well. Better than my Nexus 6p.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] marcadam:
I have absolutely no idea how phoneArena managed to get such poor battery life in their test? Their result doesn't come anywhere near to my real life usage, I think their test isn't as close to a real life simulation as they'd like to think it is?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Devesh2094:
Hi. I only yesterday bought my new op3. Wondering if you upgraded via OTA or something. I am still running on 3.1.2 and haven't received the OTA for 3.2.0.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] marcadam:
Install tunnelbear (or your choice of VPN) set your location to Germany and the 3.2.1 OTA will appear for you.

The phone always behaves well in the short term after a factory reset or clean ROM flash. Let's hope it stays that way!
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] brickedvice:
Lol he sure did and that's fine and great for him. But no point to come here, post those unrealistic statistic and continue to defend his point that he didn't simply keep the screen awake to increase SOT. I don't know what satisfaction do these kind of people get. They either are 9 years old or they simply have mental issues because no normal person would do that.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] biglilsteve:
Well, to get back on topic. I get between 4 and 5 hours of SOT during a normal day. This is an assumption because I'm usually around 25-30% at the end of the night with 3-3.5 hours SOT logged. If I continued with my normal usage all the way to 0%, I'm sure I'd fall within the 4-5 hour range.

My normal day consists of charging the phone late at night around 10-11pm before bed, unplugging it, letting it sleep all night, then using it all day the following day.

This is with about 14 hours of WiFi at home and around 10 hours of LTE at work and during commutes. Signal strength is medium at home (mostly yellow, sometimes light green in battery stats). Signal strength is good at work and during commutes (mostly light green/some dark green).

I'm on completely stock and unrooted OOS 3.2.1.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nickporwal:
Getting approx 8hrs of SOT is possible if you do lots of browsing on wifi. That doesn't mean its unrealistic. However you will get around 6hrs of SOT on LTE. That's with no gaming.

You maybe heavy user but no need to question someones credibility if someone is getting more SOT. Not everyone uses mobile for gaming. I use it for voice calls, fb, browsing, youtube, streaming.... I easily get 6-7hrs on wifi.

Using camera a lot drains battery very fast though.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] brickedvice:
The dude had 10hours SOT. Also learn how to read battery screenshots. It is clear that his phone was sitting on the desk with screen staying on doing nothing. If you really think you can get that with normal activity or even light activity on this phone then you are as delusional as him.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Roobwz:
10hrs is not impossible man. The opo had a smaller battery and was able to pop 10hrs of SOT. This with very light usage ( wifi, low brightness, eBook reading etc) and with the correct kernel tweaks. So why would it be impossible with the op3??
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] brickedvice:
OPO actually had bigger battery but battery size itself doesn't mean anything. But okay I won't argue it with you because it looks like there are many fanatics here. No reasonable person believes these stats:View attachment 3810007View attachment 3810008
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nickporwal:
Sigh there is no point of arguing with you. The way you are judging everyone is hilarious. Dude i know very well how to read the battery statistics. This is not my first smartphone. I am not defending him/her. I don't know him/her. Point is that you can get 10hrs of SOT on medium to light usage. I am not saying to follow him/her. Plus the list he has shown is not full. You will get the apps used probably in the bottom. Maybe 1% to 2%. For example if you will watch movie for 4 hrs on mx player, SOT will be way higher, but mx player will be at bottom somewhere. Anyway everyone is free to use their mobile as however they want. No off topic now. Peace. :)

It would be interesting to know the battery usage while using camera and gps. These two drains the battery quickly.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Roobwz:

Lol okay good for all those that are getting 10hours SOT with medium/light usage. Keep up the great results ?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] JumboMan:
SOT depends upon usage patterns.

e.g when my usage is light weight i got about 8-9 hrs of sot while if i use device heavily my sot drops almost to half around 4-5 hrs.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] MrPhilo:
It's possible. I don't know why you're getting upset for? Theres no reason to post fake info.

I mean look over 4 hour screen on time, with 44% left, this is including Pokemon GO on LTE and WiFi plus mix uses of YouTube and Chrome along with reediting. Maybe a few phone calls and whatsapp

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] azik:
I get great battery life compared to my OPO. With about an hour of TuneIn on 3G and about 5 hours of SOT, I would still end up with 20% within a 24 hour timeframe.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lakino:
Why would you drain your battery down to 0%? that's horrible practice.

Lithium batteries do NOT like to be drained below 50%. If possible, always charge when your battery falls below 50%. If there's no way to charge then that's life. But if you have access to charge, then charge anytime it falls below 50%. The lifetime of the battery will last a lot longer if you recharge often as opposed to letting it deplete down to 0-15% before charging each time.

Best practice: charge anytime it falls below 50%. DEFINITELY charge if it falls below 30%. If you follow these rules, your battery will last, over its lifetime, a lot longer than someone who drains down to 0-15% every time before charging it back up.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] saurabh40629:
charge anytime it falls below 50% ?? what kind of logic is that and ? Do you have any facts/articles to support it or just making your theory?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lakino:
Absolutely. It's quite technical but by all means you should study up on battery tech.

http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries

Here is more:

http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/bu_808c_what_the_user_can_do

If you want to get extremely technical, you should NOT charge to 100% either. The optimal charge is between 50% and 80%. If you school/work right next to a plug and can charge, it's best to plug in for a bit when it reaches 50% and charge to no more than 85%. Unplug before 85%. If you keep your charging cycle like this, your battery will definitely outlast 90% of the user base out there. But it's not that practical. So my more practical advice is to charge when your phone battery to drops to 50% and let it charge to full. But if you want extreme battery life performance over the lifetime of your battery, disconnect from charger at 85% or less.

More: http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/bu_808b_what_causes_li_ion_to_die

The talk of % is really for lay-people. In the battery industry, it's all about the voltage. Charge your phone to 3.9V, not 4.2V or 4.3V for optimal long run battery life.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] saurabh40629:
Thanks for nice info. Useful but not very practical. Only thing here I can use is "not discharging till 0% or charging upto 100%", rest will be obsessing over battery.

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] hasenbein1966:
Sorry, but this is all irrelevant BS which unnecessarily unsettles some users.

If I only charge the battery to 85% or don't let it drop below 30% or whatnot, then what happens? Riiiight, I need more charging cycles! Because a phone is something which is used permanently.

And more charging cycles are bad for the battery, so the positive effects of the cautious charging are thwarted!

So, dear users, don't listen to this seemingly clever charging talk. Just use your phone, and when you see that now it's better to charge it to not run out of juice at an inconvenient moment, charge it. Simple as that.

And if your battery should happen to degrade significantly sometime in 2018, then, if you should happen to still have the OP3, then you will be able, for 20-40 bucks, to exchange the battery (OP3 is an easily repairable device, and there will be replacement batteries on the market).

Case closed.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lakino:
Your logic is that of a 3 year old.

Yes, you can ignore physics and chemistry and have your battery life shortened. No one would care. I certainly wouldn't. But that doesn't mean what you said above is correct. In fact, it's categorically wrong! More charging cycles is absolutely NOT the reason for battery life expiration. It's the Depth of Discharge that kills the life of a battery. You can cycle thousands of times from 85% to 50% where as you'll only get 300 to 500 recharges when you discharge to 0% and recharge. You haven't read any of the details posted in the links I provided. You're talking out of your ars*e. You're just ignorant and shouldn't be posting here.

You can do as you wish but don't go telling others to go down your ignorant route.

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lakino:
Ok. That's fair. So long as you know the actual facts then it's your phone and you get to decide how to use it. ;)

I've seen countless posts in various forums of users decrying how their batteries have lost a lot of their capacity after 6 months or a year of use. Their phone begins life with 6 hrs of SOT but after 6 months, they're down to 5 or 4 hrs of SOT and they blame the phone manufacturer or OS upgrades or whatever the case may be. But in reality, a lot of the capacity loss is most likely due to the way their phones were being charged.

Now granted, the phone industry does a horrible job of educating the general phone users about battery technology and best practices of charging. Obviously most users are most concerned with getting the max battery life per charge. I get that. But getting the most battery use time for that given one charge actually greatly shortens the overall lifetime use of the battery.

I wish OnePlus designed the phone with a back that easily opens and a battery pack that was easily swap-able. Then we could easily replace the battery when battery life shortens over time. :(
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] jonwilliams84:
Like I said; I have never had a problem with any of my phones. I have kept most of them upwards of 18months, so the problem you are describing is a non-problem for the majority of users. It is not down to misguided users, but most likely a combination of badly optimised roms, kernels, drainage from apps and possibly some bad luck thrown in the mix too.

Again, thank you for sharing your knowledge battery technology; which is clearly far more in-depth than my own insight, and more than likely far greater than I will ever care to understand. ;) At the end of the day, phones like the Oneplus 3 are designed for the "throw away" generation that we have become; after 12 months who cares because we will have the Oneplus 4 in our hands?!
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] saurabh40629:
No phone will give you better battery backup on 3G/4G. First of all , mobile data uses more battery . Second,in mobile data, android system, android os, google play services eat up a lot of battery, so that is also the reason. If phone is lasting you a full day, stop worrying.
