Did anyone having battery drain issue after update to b170 version? Need to know everyone experience here b4 i update it.

I am on version b103 now, the battery is quite good when i test it on aeroplane mode for few days. When i insert my sim card, the battery start to drain very fast & i only run on 3G connection.

Anyone facing the same issue?

Hi latte36, How do you achieve that? I tried so hard only can get 5h++
your SOT mostly on surfing or video?
Did you enable wifi & data all the time?

I only surfing, whatsapp, Facebook and video less than 1 hour.
With wifi & 3g smart switch. 40% of time is screen off.
I suspect my battery having issue . Or 4G can save more battery?

Hi Uncle Benny, thanks for sharing, will try 4g to test my battery from now on. Btw, we need to root the phone before we can use the ?

I can see in power usage, mobile network have a lot of red & yellow line, mean that the phone keep searching for network. I am using digi, I think their 4g coverage is better I think

And so i used the stock charger. It is indeed capable of around 2.5 hours to full charge. No idea how Anandtech got 80% in an hour as i only get around 60%. The power delivery seems pretty spiky too but surprisingly close to 3A at the beginning.

Joseph, which battery manager you using?

Me too, "dead trigger" not shown in my play store.

When using fingerprint unlock, lock screen did not show magazine wallpaper. Anyone have the same issue? I on ver b170

Only 2 theme have magazine, black and gold, tried both also not working

I found that the wifi/mobile data switch reminder drain lot of battery when choose 'use mobile data' when wifi not available.

Wifi+ also not auto connect when wifi available

Try to restart the phone, I have the same problem. Battery drain drain 10% overnight without wifi or data on.

Screen should consume most of the battery, I think this is EMUI bug

Uncle Benny, how you check the wakelock on mate 8? I tried using wakelock detector from play store unfortunately my unit is not root & need to connect to PC to use the apps. Tried to follow the instruction to configure in PC but no luck.

That number is really amazing with youtubing.
For me, it used 5% of battery for 10 mins of FHD youtube on phone's speaker

Did you enable data & background data for those apps you need notification?
Phone Manager>traffic manager>networked apps

Same like me, not root & can't check wakelocks.
But after I disable "Android system webview" in apps setting, battery improved. Check your app> ignore optimization.

That is the phone's gorilla screen?
Try to take it off & your phone won't have screen anymore

Yes, on B180, it is very obvious the battery percentage going down faster when surfing

I found that copy files from PC to HW phone is a bit slow.

everyone is excited with the DSLR smartphone now.

Jump topic a bit
6h45m SOT in 52 hour, is this normal?
