hii i have an old BA whose screen is gone...lost my stylus..and even the battery is dead. i live in Kolkata in India..Can Any of you guys help me on this issue...i got to make it run.:o :o
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] SilverSamurai:
screen is gone?

what do you mean?

is it busted/cracked?

white screen?

bootloader screen? "e.g Serial/USB etc."

tri-color screen?

what exactly do you have at the moment?

(items that are necessary to check if it can be revived)

pc? (given that you posted this)

working battery?

battery charger?

usb cable/cradle?

i know what you think... i've produced more questions rather than answer.

but i think your post isnt getting any point.

if you can provide more descriptive words, we can help you. (as much)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] xplode:
SilverSamurai is right, please provide more detailed explaination

if you have faulty batery you may not be able to turn on your device and the red flash light will be turned on
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] nyxneo:
hii

hii samurai...my ba has a swollen battery... i think ill have to buy a new one....and i have a screen where i think my touch screen is ok....but the lcd is gone....
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] SilverSamurai:
you need to buy these things in order for you to make it or test it if it works

1. battery

2. usb cable (cradle)

you need these two to check if your unit is still operational and i know there's something in the forum how to interface with your BA remotely without the LCD.

3. LCD *** you need to buy a replacement for this. it's the most important part of your BA.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] nyxneo:
BAAAAA

i know samurai...the problem is the BA is very old now and i dont find some good mechanics here in my city...and all the guys here say that the replacements heve to be bought from china...i stay in india.....it seems illogical...hehe...thinking abt it man
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] SilverSamurai:
hmm... :(

then, it's sorry to say that without those two

1. battery and

2. usb cable/charger

you cant deteremine if your unit is still working

or is it turning on...

and without the

3. LCD

you cant use it or determine if it has an OS installed,

and will never know where to start fixing...

until you got those requirement i said above, it will be NO GO for that unit.

I don't personally have the Z Play but I just got it for my sister on my plan and its getting some really great battery life. it had 15% left but already had over 9 hours of SOT! granted she mostly watch's Youtube videos with checking Facebook every so often. what is everyone else getting?

Got the phone a few days ago with Verzion, forgot to get the details of the power usage, all I got is the graph.

I use this phone a lot while working to take calls, playing music on my radio with Pandora while driving, and GPS. Wifi enabled, auto brightness, and GPS high accuracy.

Any idea why anyone would need to buy the battery pack Moto Mod when the stock battery lasts this long?

Moto X 2nd gen user reporting. I get 2-3 hours of screen time on my X2 which needs to be charge after 22-24 hours sometimes lesser than that. I keep all the features on, every sensor on. What can I expect? 5 hours SOT and 35 hours recharge cycle? Or even more with everything turned on?
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] coolkingler1:
Everything? 8 at least.

If you turn off what you don't need, 10-15. Not even joking.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] dandrumheller:
30+ off the charger? I wouldn't have quite made that yesterday - 10h SoT at 18h up with 30 left. Realized I didn't have OK Moto voice activation with screen off set up that first day, guessing that might have been the difference!
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Ravi Venugopal:

[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] RealiZms:
Overall long-term battery life will be great because you plug it in less because I personally go 2 days..

Any other phone out there you plug in daily. If you plug it in half as much you are essentially gaining twice the overall battery life.. Meaning our battery performance will remain consistent for years. I plan on keeping my Z play at least 2 years. I really love it.

Loving this phone! No battery pack, sync on, gps on, Greenify on Facebook only, and that's it! Could have gone another half day pretty easily. Only one I've ever heard of that is able to easily go 2 heavy days and have plenty left over. I've stopped bringing my charger with me when I go away for the weekend. Love it!
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] DadOudidOuda:
I always forget to take screenshots when I used the battery Moto Mod, so frustrating! (Guess it's because the phone last so long)

Anyway to give you an idea, with the Incipio battery Moto Mod I usually manage around 5.5 days with at least 16 hours of SOT (with moderate use). I really thought this mod was overkill for the Z Play but it's quite comfortable to have that much battery life!

(I'll get you screenshots the next time I'll be using the mod)
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] kskkumar:
Any battery numbers after updating to mpn24.104.56? I am seeing a slight degrade difference in battery life after upgrade. Though still it is giving a good backup. But just want to hear from others. Now I am getting 6 hours of SOT. And WiFi is taking more than ever. WiFi is topping the list after 24 hrs of usage. Earlier after a day, I used to get 56% remaining. Now it is 44℅ after 24 hrs. Will do a full cycle of complete recharge and see if that improves. Meanwhile, I will watch this section for any updates.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] McBacker:

[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] xxBrun0xx:
Got to the end the charge. Legitimately 3 days of moderate to heavy use. I've got about 6 hours of phone calls with screen off and a good amount of gaming mixed in here. Again, no battery pack, Greenify Facebook, location history off, and that's it!

Saw that chrooma released an update, so figured I'd give it a shot again. Had used it for a while on my S6, but been on GBoard with the MZP. All I can say is, it's a good working and feature loaded keyboard, but...

OH HE77 NO

Edit: after another app update, crazy battery drain appears resolved. Will continue to monitor and report
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] uberano26:
What kind of keyboard eats so much of battery?
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] dandrumheller:
One with an issue. My guess (with zero evidence to back it up) is it's their new "neural network" learning feature. I sent the devs an email. Keeping it on my Moto E backup device for now to monitor.

It must be my signal strength then because I doubt I'll ever see those kind of numbers. I rarely have Bluetooth on, Location on here and there, sync one email account, GNow disabled, Location History disabled, and mostly on Wi-Fi and I'll typically see only 9 hours SOT, which is still great, but not nearly what some of you are getting.

No as much as we get in mm. Android N is draining battery faster than mm. Dose mode is not getting activated it seems.

I haven't did a factory reset. Because I don't want to reset my device as backing up all apps and my WhatsApp details are time consuming. It is just a OTA update without any cleaning. I will try for 2 more days and update if there is any improvement in the battery life.

But still this battery backup is good even though it is not with par with mm.

I would love to compare battery life numbers with someone on nougat. Set both phones up the same way and see how it turns out after a day.

Mixed use, WiFi and 4G. Check signal strength using Signal Strength Lite, mine is about - 80, 5 bars. Nothing syncing in the background. In fact background data restricted.

I think this phone is a beast for battery life. I usually shut down all connections at night and charge full. 8 hours later it's still 100%.

I just feel like the battery life will drop a little with nougat. I have a Z Force, nougat, and when I set up the phone the same way overnight I usually lose 5% overnight.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] arides:
After I updated to Nougat, I noticed the battery is better and I must say I'm impressed:

View attachment 4039309 View attachment 4039310

I managed to get 9 hours + of screen on time, WiFi always turned on and airplane mode (because signal strength in my room is feeble, so leaving it on would be just wasting battery).

Saturday around 12 pm the phone was charged at 95% when I began downloading the Nougat update. After the download and installation I began using the phone non stop exploring all the Nougat features, and at some point even installed the Nova Launcher to get even more customization, so it was really heavy usage, installing apps, testing them, restarting the phone, and afterwards using Twitter, Instagram, Chrome a lot, etc and got all those hours of sot. I only needed to charge today, on Sunday around 8:30pm.

I must say I was already impressed with the Moto Z Play with Marshmallow (I always got 7 hours max of sot), but Nougat made me fall in love even more with this phone.

We have tons of better and cooler thoughtful features, not to mention the crazy numbers we're witnessing here! =)

Cheers!
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] dachau:
Guys, did you consider trying the data saver feature to also save on battery? It could prolongue standby times as it prevents unneccessary background transactions by certain apps.

I myself whitelisted Whatsapp and Gmail which are the most relevant apps for the time I am not on the move.

In fact - activating the data saver feature is just like manually activating Doze 2.0.

I'll try to see in real life if it actually makes a difference in comparision to MM.

Finally found a way to beat up on the battery!

Just copied about 22GB of music over my home wireless network to the external SD card on the phone. Hung up for 20 min or so waiting on input from me on a couple duplicate files. But put a SERIOUS hurt on the battery!

NOUGAT 7.0 EXPERIENCE ON MOTO Z PLAY (retbr - Brazil)

I charged at 5PM Feb 20th, beginning with 98%. I got home today at 7PM40 Feb 21th with 27%.

Intense use is only around 3 hours a day.

A 71% battery usage within 27 hours.

SOT 7 hours and 30 minutes (1030mAh).

Question is: any better than Marshmallow?
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] dandrumheller:
That would be on the good side of normal for me on MM. But it is very dependent on a lot of variables that are unique to your use case. So is it better, the same, or worse compared to your use on MM?

You guys make me consider selling my OnePlus 3 and getting a z play..
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] dandrumheller:
Still on MM here, but the last few days I saw a pretty heavy hit on battery, which corresponded to installing the beta version of Google play services.

I was getting roughly double drain at idle, and 150% drain during screen on (compared to my usual drain rates)

Battery stats were generally not reporting play services as a high use item. However, in a 16 hour run, looking at individual app stats showed play services using over 9 hours of CPU time.

Switching back to mainline play services seems to have returned me to normal battery drain rates.

Anyone else on play services beta notice a hit to battery life?
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] xDark_:
I have a 3T and a Z Play. If you don't use your camera, the Z Play you're getting has Nougat (MM has some serious memory management issues - can't go to reddit then YouTube and back to reddit without a reload), and don't need to unlock your bootloader, and prioritize battery over literally anything, I'd go for it. Other than that, no.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] MrWilsonxD:
Dang, that's even worse than Samsung! Glad that was fixed up for you guys.

Unlocking bootloader is mandatory for all phones! I see root is available though, that's good!

Do you notice any battery drain with multi tasking on nougat? When you never close your apps?
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] xDark_:
It's even worse for me since I don't have N yet ?

Yeah but OnePlus has this nice policy where it retains your warranty if you unlock your bootloader. Once you unlock your bootloader on a Moto device, it trips a fuse in the processor and voids your warranty forever.

I don't even on MM.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] MrWilsonxD:
And here I had hope for Motorolla when I had already lost it for Samsung, HTC, and LG.

Still, the battery life y'all are getting is quite tempting... And I seldom get warranties on phones anyways....
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] xDark_:
I mean at least you get the ability to unlock it. Ask for that option from Samsung.

Yeah, I'm just paranoid about something breaking. Though apparently you could get lucky and get a person who doesn't even check if the warranty is void (I've heard that's happened before).

With Moto mod battery 50 hrs, 9 hrs screen, 30% internal battery left

Went to Vegas for a weekend, forgot my charger, with my Moto Mod battery attached I got 50 hrs, 9 hrs screen on, 30% internal battery remaining. Included a fair bit of Google nav, and some time searching for signal in no signal areas. No conserving battery usage at all.

This phone is fantastic. I just wish WiFi calling was working on T-Mobile.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Milly7:
Why isn't it working? I've used it on stock room before.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] FreeFlyFreak:
We'll that is good to know.

I was under the impression that it just didn't work from what I had read on various forums.

I have none of the options to activate WiFi calling in settings.

If you have used WiFi calling on T-Mobile on a stock ROM then it could be because I am using an unlocked Verizon "droid" version with a T-Mobile sim card on T-Mobile network. Basically the phone has no menu to activate WiFi calling.

If you can confirm that you used WiFi calling, using the non-Droid version of the Z play on T-Mobile then I may buy one and sell this phone.
