I think that dash charge will destroy our batteries in the next year.. 6 months have passed and i feel it already left with 3/4 of the total power..
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] alan sh:
I disagree. MIne is one of the first ones and the battery life is still excellent.

Does anyone know with this pictures, why my deepsleep is so bad? I really dont get it...

Sync off Bluetooth off, location off. Latest oos 5.1.4 stock kernel

I did two clean flashes... Wiped everything...
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] strongst:
Please provide a dump file off better battery stats. According to the screenshots you have very much screen on time compared to the deep sleep time+idle time.

For investigating the battery life its good to just measure the idle drain, not usage drain.

You can refer here https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179809
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] payback_75:
Thanks for response
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] strongst:
Thanks for providing, but the deep sleep analyzing can only be possible with nearly 0 screen on time. Charge your device to 100%, unplug it and let it settle for min 6h or use a custom reference withing bbs.

Looking forward to see a new dump :svetius:

Seems Deepsleep is back to normal. Too many buttons under battery optimisation ?...

But anyway Thanks for your help

Does anyone have any tips for respectable battery life with apps like Facebook, Snapchat without hibernating them? I'm getting around 3-4 hrs of sot on xxx stock (I've tried a million different ROM/kernel combinations and so far stock is the "least worse")
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] DarkDampSquib:
try disabling background data for snapchat. but dont disable running in background. or you wont get notifications.

i get arround 6h sot with data on stock oos with renderzenith kernel. i use snapchat, whatsapp, instagram.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Im_Mattgame:
thanks for the advice, just switched to Renderzenith as it seems minimal and power efficient :)

My idle dump on new rom

This is my dump on a new rom that i installed yesterday.

Just want to make sure i have all required settings for bbs on,

Any suggestions to improve battery life? Any suggestions on apps?

TIA
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] strongst:
0.6%/h is a very good value. You can think about disabling the quick search box if you want otherwise I won't dig around due to the very good drain
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] atrix4nag:
My idle dump aeema fine but not getting good battery afterwards

How can i improve?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] strongst:
I can't tell you since you did not provide any information about your setup.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] atrix4nag:
I am on xtended rom rooted and decrypted. What other information needed?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] strongst:
WeatherService is causing wakelock and whatsapp is downloading traffic in the background. Otherwise it's a rom/kernel issue, not transparent to bbs.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] atrix4nag:
Thanks for your input. I am not using weather service, how to block it and WhatsApp?

Edit: wakelock blocker added to weather service, for WhatsApp what i should block?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] strongst:
If you don't use an app, I recommend to freeze or uninstall it(first freeze to see any impact). Blocking wakelocks can lead to other side effects too.

Both mentioned apps have only a minor impact measured by bbs, so there's no huge improvement you can expect.

It's more the os or kernel.

If you want help maybe you can describe in more detailed sentences.

And also consider to do a clean flash if not happend already.

Further analysis requires a breakdown of several components including a better battery stats dump file of your idle drain(one breakdown).

[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] strongst:
I'm actually on OB32 with stock kernel and getting excellent results with idle drain(mobile cell reception) of 0.5%/h

Screen on time isn't much different. But you need to try it on your own, cause we do not have same environment, usage behavior, apps etc. ;)

Hmm, you have twice standby drain. Maybe you can repeat the test with the mobile connection only instead of wifi connection(do you have wifi connected or enabled along with location scanning?).
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] atrix4nag:
I will try with WiFi off tomorrow.

I was connected to WiFi during the test.

but not sure about what you mean by along with location scanning
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] strongst:
Settings - security - location - search. Should be both to off

Meh. It was late. My bad. :eek:
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ArtVandelay2:
Looking at the leaderboard thread, how in the hell does anyone get these crazy 10+ SOT stats? I'm on 9.0.8., stock ROM, stock kernel, rooted/TWRP, no other mods. I'm glad if I get 4 hours SOT these days, usually it's around 3 hours or sometimes less. Bluetooth and Wifi are usually turned on, but that shouldn't make a difference of 6 or more hours. I bought the device less than 2,5 years ago, original battery still not replaced. Any ideas?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Hello there :) it's my thread, all legit.

The reason why some get good and some get bad is because it's subjective.

Some people have apps that draw more power, or a setup which does, some are located in an area where the device may have to work harder to get the signal out, also due to habits and the actual device itself, some will be marginally more efficient.

The you have to look at what OS each person is on, what kernel is in use, which firmware, charging habits (i don't charge overnight, not once on any phone i've ever had) and finally what may be syncing on an app level, eg: Google sync services, some may have some on some may not.

Individually this won't make much of a difference but combined with other factors, they add up, a good indication is what your idle drain is overnight, I have the P20 Pro now but when i had the Oneplus 5 and xXx no limits running, i was only losing 0-1% overnight (8-9 hours) consistently, a single app can double / quadruple that number quite easily.

The time i recorded when i achieved 14 hours 40 minutes SOT on one charge over the weekend, i was in my room for all of it, pretty much, signal is amazing in there which was a huge help.

Bare in mind also that the oneplus 5 is a few years old now, so regardless on your habits, it's a dated battery and will almost certainly have lost some efficiency.

Hope this helps :)

PS: Personally I wouldn't bother switching things off or moving to power saver mode, i'd also stick with the stock kernel as it's normally the most stable.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sunki:
My SOT its average 8:30 and battery health I have its 83% most of the time I used AccuBattery app to monitor charge and usage and charged my phone over the night only handful times. Signal coverage at home its great and poor at work. If i use phone at work battery dropping so fast.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ArtVandelay2:
It's not really subjective, because the SOT is simply measured. And in the thread they compare OP5 devices, which are more or less the same age. I also compared my settings (ROM, kernel etc.) with other users and it doesn't make much sense to me that they get up to 10 hours (!) screen time more than me. I take care of my device as well, never charged it over night etc. The general performance of the OP5 is still amazing, I don't really want to upgrade to a new device just because of battery issues. Replacing the battery is also risking, people experienced even worse battery life after a replacement.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] strongst:
Every user has different apps, signal strength, usage behavior, temperature, brightness, settings, signal speed etc.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] 350Rocket:
I was getting 3 hours or less on a pixel XL with 95% battery health and similar on a galaxy s8 I had for a few weeks. The OnePlus 5 regularly goes 5.5hours screen on time over a period of a day for me. Sometimes over 7 depending on what I'm doing. Listening to music on it all day long brings it down to like 3.5 hours give or take. I have 90% battery health left on my original battery.

I have lots of Google sync stuff happening and did have Facebook and Instagram (rarely used) up until now. I'm experimenting with how much it will improve without them because I've also had to add an app for work that tracks my location all day long to log the hours for each job I'm on and it uses up to like 20% of the battery through the day. That and Google RCS chat is now active on my phone and seems to be using a high percentage of the battery too. I'm kind of experimenting with chat for a bit (only works texting my mom because she has a pixel which has chat already). If the battery drain doesn't slow down it won't be worth keeping it active so I'll turn it off.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] vdbhb59:
Mine for example. Though I am on Xtended Q latest.

I do get 6-8 most of the times.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] lazostat:
It's simple. Whoever managed to get over 9hours it's because he had a new battery + lowest brightness + they just let the screen opening doing nothing.. But that's cheating i guess..
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Lol that's not true at all. Check the leaderboard I made.

Haha who the hell would do what you've just said?

Friend i think that my battery after nearly 3 years is very bad now.. It makes sense.. How can i test my battery? Accubattery is accurate?

Do you know guys where can i find a original oneplus5 battery?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
I understand the logic, however I'm not doing that, that's my question, why would anybody do that?? It's ridiculous

And as [MENTION=613506]strongst[/MENTION] just mentioned, if you have a problem with your battery then perhaps you should talk about it rather than suggesting we're all leaving it on reading mode, for what? To say hey look at me with my high SOT?

Look at the application lost on the battery stats.

If your need help then ask for it, I won't however entertain your accusations.

[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] 350Rocket:
I fully plan to replace my battery when the time comes. You can test it with accubattery or there's a OnePlus app that can do it along with a bunch of other tests. Mine is still about 90% health.

Your best bet is probably one of the well known suppliers like iFixit. I used to recommend E-Trade supply but I had a bad experience with their warranty policy, shipping cost more than the part and they wanted me to pay the shipping when the part was defective.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] lazostat:
I can't find battery on Ifixit for oneplus5.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] 350Rocket:
They used to have it because I tried to order one. The Canadian site didn't and they don't ship here anymore. I guess try eBay.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] lazostat:
This is the state of my battery right now.. I guess it's bad.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] 350Rocket:
Mine has held up well but I try not to run it low very often. Keeping it above 30% before recharging helps a lot, as well as unplugging before it gets to 100.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] lazostat:
Yeah, most times i charge it from 20% to 80%.

This time i was at viber for 1h5m and i lost 10%. Which means if i am non-stop at viber or browsing i will have 9h+ Sot. The real problem is the standby drain. Especially during night.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] 350Rocket:
If it's standby it sounds like it's more likely a software issue than hardware.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Pokemetti2:
I don't think this is helpful. As a JerryRigEverything subscriber I cannot accept this statement ;) . Buying new phones when you could just replace the battery or get the battery replaced by a professional is wasteful! And often it costs you more... Afaik the Oneplus 5 battery is easily replacable. Plus he was just asking for help and not complaining.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Well there is a bit more to it than that.

The phone itself may actually have become less efficient.

Chips, camera, touch screen, audio, mic.

They'll all degrade over time. 2 years is about everyone's limit. The warranty is gone by then and if he / you has been charging over night, every night then that'll have but the capacitors hard.

Essentially yes you can fix it, you can swap anything out to a point, but similar to a car it has to be cost effective.

3 years unless you've treated it perfectly, it's going to be a less efficient phone.

PS I do like the make do and mend mentality btw, everyone should, and with certain things I definitely make adjustments and fix what I can. But with phones there are limits

PPS: sorry I didn't mean to sound as negative as I did.

[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] 350Rocket:
Still getting 4-7 hours screen on time with my original battery. Stock 10.0.1. Always gets through the day and lasts longer than my new op8pro by a couple hours. Switched back to the old phone hoping updates will improve the new one. (especially poor speakerphone for outdoor use).
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Strange that.

If you've updated to 11 then make sure your l you factory wipe afterwards, you'll almost certainly inherit and create issues by changing base.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] 350Rocket:
I wonder if it has anything to do with the "invert colors" being broken and unusable on the OnePlus 8 pro? Is this the case on yours or is it just me? I opened a ticket with OnePlus and shortly after that I got a reply from a problem with my OnePlus 5 I opened a ticket 6 months ago, so I don't expect any help from them. When reading in the browser on the op5 I would always invert the colors in the quick toggles so the background would be black, lots of battery savings there. The op8 has the same feature but it just makes it go gray with a bright white hue over top.

I did a fresh wipe when I installed the Android 11 update shortly after buying the phone. I kept using the OnePlus 5 until that point. Since I didn't use it as a daily until after the update I don't know if there problems existed before. I've received one update since the Android 11 update and it didn't fix either of my issues.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Have to say I have never had a use for inverting colours..dark mode works fine for me.

I'm currently on about 8 hours with 22% left.

Battery can be saved in more places also depending on usage
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Also make sure you enable chrome://flags

Search dark mode and enable it

It'll be amoled black
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] 350Rocket:
Thanks that worked. Better than nothing. I'll still be missing working invert colours for certain apps that don't have a proper black mode..other than this and battery life still being worse than my tired OnePlus 5, my only problem is very low speakerphone volume compared to the op5. I use speakerphone outdoors on construction sites while working and it was great on that phone. With the OnePlus 8 pro I can't hear them at all. You've had both phones, do you notice a huge difference between the 2 in speakerphone mode?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
AHH construction, cold weather can have a massive effect on your phone, try keeping your phone warm..I've been on sites before with my older phones and it definitely has an effect.

Haven't got a problem with audio personally but I'm not always outside .

My phone's still going 9 hours and 12 minutes left.

I should still have 10% by morning.

Iirc the OnePlus 5 only had mono audio, there were plenty of mods for it, have you got any running?

The best mod I ever used was dragon (I think it was called) really loud but no distortion, think that was been on the S3 i9300.

Viper for me doesn't make it louder, but I'd try dragon again if I could find it.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] 350Rocket:
Both phones are completely stock actually. Mono Audio yeah, but much louder out of the OnePlus 5. I know how the cold can affect certain phones, my co-workers iPhone died after only a few minutes outside just before the holidays. Mine had no issues with the cold.

It wasn't cold yet when I was using the OnePlus 8 pro, so I'll find out when I go back to work tomorrow how much worse it actually is than I already experienced. Not much I can do but keep it in my pocket except when using it. I expect it to drain faster out in the cold, which just concerns me more since I could barely get a full day in good weather with the new phone whereas the old one always had lots left to spare. I can always plug it in when we're in the truck if need be, I'm just used to 3 years of having a reliable battery.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Something is eating the battery, probably a rogue app misbehaving.

Mono appears to be louder but it's probably on par.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] 350Rocket:
It's definitely possible, weird thing is it's the exact same apps and setup on both phones. I did have an issue with the stock weather app draining the OnePlus 8 so I disabled it. Never had anything like that happen with the op5.

I suspect I have a bum battery but I can't test the battery health like I could on the op5. It was at 88% last I checked and is actually lasting as long or longer than 3 years ago on Android 7. I've had a few issues with android 10 on the op5 the worst being no audio when answering phone calls on speaker (finally fixed with the last update) but never any battery issues after all these years.

All I can do is hope things improve with the next update.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
I'd avoid comparing the two. Give the 8 is fresh start.

The 5 was a good phone for it's time but the battery will have degraded by now significantly.

Have you turned off optimize charging?

And you're not charging overnight?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] 350Rocket:
Is there a problem with optimized charging? That's a feature I was excited about as I keep the phones long term and did what I could to keep the old phone from degrading much over 3 years. I will try turning it off but the whole point of it is to reduce battery degradation and allow you to charge overnight.

If I plan on using fast charging I don't have to charge overnight (used to do this with the op5 often - put it in battery save mode overnight - then plug in when my first alarm goes off), but then I switched to a slower charger and did overnight charging instead. When I inevitably wake up in the middle of the night and see the phone is charge I pull it off the charger. Otherwise I leave for work at 7am and get up at 6 so charging really has to happen overnight.

I put more thought into this than the average person, most just charge overnight without ever thinking about it. And for perspective I'm using a 3 year old phone that I've used heavily without any noticeable battery degradation vs a 6-7 month old phone. It should be much too early for my charging habits to have hurt the phone if they're going to.

Anyway I'll try it without optimized charging if you're thinking that it's another broken feature.

Sorry for derailing this thread. Somehow I ended up complaining about the new phone in the old phones battery discussion.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
To be clear, there is nothing (besides not doing it) you can do to stop your battery degrading quicker if you charge overnight.

I've explained this 100s of times, if you charge overnight your battery will not last as long - period, it's as simple as that.

More to the point you really shouldn't have to. The charger should max out your battery in an hour and if you're losing more than 0-2% overnight then it has a problem anyway.

Trust me I've seen what happens to the extreme when a battery is left charging constantly, you don't want that
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] 350Rocket:
I'm not sure I agree that optimized charging (trickle charging to full by morning) is harder than dash charging. It just doesn't make sense. Other than opinion, do you have proof? I've got some pretty old batteries.
