[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] szalaigabor1999:
In the following test I measured the actual charging rate of the phone.

Software: Ampere

Conditions: Summertime in Europe, non-air conditioned room at 25-27 degrees celsius. (78F)

I had put an old 100W AMD heatsink on the phone (screen side) to prevent overheating (otherwise the measurement would be invalid).

Charging power:

View attachment 5993723

You can see, it's nowhere near 18W but 13W. You have to keep in mind that your charger may provide 9V at 2A but the cable drops around 0.4V and the phone limits it's power draw because of that.

I measured 8.5V and 1.8A at the USB-C port with a KEWEISI KWS-1902 meter.

Voltage and current:

View attachment 5993719

Here you can see the current and voltage values in relation to the charge percentage. You can see that the battery charges at 3A constant. The battery is a 5Ah unit so this 3A is barely more than 0.5C. It isn't harmful for this battery. However the voltage exceeds 4.5V! I would VERY strongly recommend against fast charging your cheap aftermarket battery.

Temperature:

View attachment 5993721

The overheating point is possibly at the 40C mark at least that is where the Xiaomi phones reduce their charging power.

Note: When you are using an external display with docking station, the phone didn't appear to be taking more than 1A (for charging purposes) which might be because the phone has to power the HDMI MUX chip, power the GPU, push more pixels and all within the same small cooling budget that the phone has.

An electronics engineer's recommendation: You can fast charge all you want until 60% because the battery only degrades* when the internal potential differences are high. So I would advise against fast charging at that high voltages (4.5V is considered high even for a HV LiPo battery).

Here you can find all the measurement data:

Motorola_G100_QC - Google Drive

docs.google.com

*degradation consists of a lot of factors: high internal voltage, spent time at elevated temperatures, heating-cooling cycles etc.

Have a nice day!

[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] Moto-J:
Just curious Gábor, with what you tested and noted, it seems that extra degradation is not in effect when not using fast charging, even when charged till 100%?

In the past (Oneplus 3T) I always tried to keep the battery level between 40-80%, but I now always plug in my Nio when using my car, resulting in a battery level which is mostly between 90-100% (without fast charging). What do you think about that; bad or not bad for battery and extra degradation?

Very informative test btw; thanks!
[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] szalaigabor1999:
Depends on what you classify as extra degradation.

The degradation mostly comes from the formation of the SEI interface which happens whenever the electrolyte and the active materail (Graphite, and LiCoO2) has a potential difference of 0.4V. So the higher your battery voltage, the higher your SEI formation rate is (and the thicker it is which leads to slower charge rate).

The degradation at high SoC% is determined by the time the battery spent at these high states of charge. Not how fast it got there.

Fast charging (AFAIK) can only damage a battery if the battery is cold (eg. <10C 50F) AND is being fast charged. Because in this case the ion exchange is too slow, and solid litium is created on the outside of the active materails. This reduces the number of charge carrying particle count, and increases cell internal resistance.

In your use case, I think you will have internal resistance problems (phone turning off in cold weather at 20% or so) before you would notice a significant capacity loss.
[General Questions and Answers] IceVSin:
Hi, I was just wondering as an android user if there is any possiblity to somehow be able to airdrop to apple users and if so please direct me in the right way. I know its not in the ecosystem but maybe it is possible?
[General Questions and Answers] V0latyle:
AirDrop is Apple proprietary. If it were reversed engineered it could probably be ported to Android but Apple keeps a tight lid on their software.
[General Questions and Answers] IceVSin:
but if properly reversed engineered do you think it would be able to send to apple devices all the same?
[General Questions and Answers] V0latyle:
If properly reverse engineered, I have no doubt the project would get an immediate cease and desist from Apple.

Remember, they are the company who sued Samsung and tried to take down Android simply for "similar design cues" such as a rectangular phone with rounded corners, a flat touch screen, an interactive OS interface...
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] TheLostOne:
I own a Motorola Edge+ 2023 and read only good things about the battery life.

Compared to my old Huawei 20 Pro I don't feel a real improvement.

I've attached a screenshot of the battery usage screen. It seems to draining a lot of battery when not in use.

Is this the expected battery life for this phone?

What are you doing to improve the battery life?
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] killuminati206:
So the first two weeks I had this phone the battery life was spectacular. I was getting anywhere from 8 to 10 hours of screen on time with like 20% battery life left. After a security update I had the same issue with the mobile network did a factory reset and it helped I'd say about 75%
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] TheLostOne:
Thanks!

I guess will need to try a factory reset as well. For it was like that from the beginning but I don't have the phone that long
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] shamanoid:
what does factory reset affect? does it clear appsqdata as well? or only settings?

my highest batt consumption is also by mobile data
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] TheLostOne:
Factory reset deletes everything. But there are more reset options like only deleting all app settings.

I've performed a full factory reset yesterday and will test.

Over the night the phone drained about 15%
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] mxz55:
This phone can use up to 165Hz refresh rate, and a high touch sampling rate (opt in).. both of which are boundary breaking in the market, but certainly come at a battery life cost depending on your usage pattern

So whether or not you enabled a fixed high refresh rate (put the "Minimum refresh rate" value at 120 or 165hz) or just set the peak refresh rate, or kept it at default, can make quite a difference for battery life depending on your usage pattern.

Same for the "High touch polling rate" option in Display settings.

Maybe you had it all customized before the reset, explaining the reduced battery drain effect? Or the mobile network playing part in your drain until factory reset could be a firmware bug.

* Personally i prefer the fluid experience from maxing it all out, I don't experience short battery life at all under those circumstances, maybe because i would either be using the phone debloated, or as currently with LineageOS that runs even lighter and by nature consumes less power during most tasks. I would never wish a low refresh rate (like it can be 60 out of the box) upon anyone, it's just a yikes experience when you go to the lengths of getting a flagship capable of much better.

Unless of course your priorities are different and you may even not know any better (used to low refresh rate from previous phone, easier to set battery life as your main priority)
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] TheLostOne:
Thanks! I will look for the refresh rate setting.

I want to know about the possible ways to extend the battery life, especially for cases where I can't charge my phone easily (hiking, travelling,...).
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] shamanoid:
that seems quite high, mine is at1-2% overnight (X40 running RETEU)

with crdroid also had 1-2% overnight

my top consumer is mobile network like in your pic

can it be because of firewall? (AFwall)

since it is constantly blocking connections..
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] TheLostOne:
I don't use AFwall and still it drains about 15% per night. That's weird and the battery usage statistics are not very helpful.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] Al3xxxinho:
For me it's more than enough.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] TheLostOne:
That's impressive!
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] Zechosenjuan:
Is that from regular usage?

2 days idle seems like an outlier, like left your phone somewhere for 2 days.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] Al3xxxinho:
I use it mainly as a second phone but screen on time is the time that the screen was on ( facebook, youtube, whatsapp, playing some codm ). As tou can see from the screenshot, facebook was on screen for 3+ hours.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo, I think the battery life is super impressive compared to every other device I've used and that's even on LineageOS 20

The forums seem to cut off the elongated screenshot so here's a link from my google photos

New item by Marc Bourgoin

That's at work out of town, 5G and Bluetooth headset playing tunes on PowerAmp for 7 hours so far too

Mostly calculator app open and WhatsApp for communication tbh

FitBit seems to suck battery lol I'd probably get better life without it

I did browse AliExpress a little, but damn she sucks the battery too I guess lol oof

I did a bunch of Chrome browsing but nothing too crazy, I don't think any sites where I watched videos

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] illusion786:
Hi guys,

Dont know if anyone has come across this issue before.

Since around 2 days ago my S23U updated to latest FW, now all my chrome browser (mobile only) links have turned purple, and no, these are unvisited links.

Ive logged out of chrome and have logged in with another account on the same device and the search results are blue (visited links are purple).

Logged back in to my account and all search links unvisited are purple 😑. Ive cleared browser cache, all time history, cookies, even whent and uninstalled chrome browser and installed a very old one.... Yep you've guessed it.... Its still purple.

Whent on pc and logged in google account, all chrome search links are normal, blue unvisited and purple visited.

Thought I'd try another device (s21 ultra) same issue on the same account.

Im pulling my hair out.... I tried browser dark mode... In dark mode links are normal.... But in light mode links are purple....

Im guessing its something to do with mobile browser specific, as i cant replicate on chrome browser for pc.

Any help i get will help me save all my hair on my head.

Thank you

I recently tried to install an app for my phone but I could not because it was an app made for a 64 bit phones. I went to check my phone's processor and it said that it was a 64 bit processor but in 32 bit mode according to Aida 64.

It isn't a problem and it doesn't need to be fixed. Your device is 64 bit architecture, Android natively runs 64 bit, and every app listed on the Play Store has to be ARM64 compatible.
