Ok so i hope it ll solved on the next one

I use my phone only as a simple phone to make and receive occasional calls, with very occasional use of Google Search and Google Maps. It uses ~13% of remaining battery in a 24 hour period. I get 5 to 7 days out of a full charge. Right now mine is at 41% and i am in day 5. I expect it to be at ~36% tomorrow morning, beginning day 6. At the end of that day or beginning of next, at a bit more than 20%, i'll charge it again.
I would not expect to use the phone with the battery at anything less than 20%. I have it for emergencies, and i would not trust it at that level.

how old is the battery?
did you overclock?
check if it's warm or even hot

the battery and the mobile are about 2 year ...
and no i didn't overclock the phone
and it gets a slightly warm in fact
battery life is approx. 1000 cycles, so in 2 years it is quite possible.
If you can swap battery and test. If you don't OC, then it's not a security restart.
I bet it's battery

i thought at the first it would be some kind of software problem ...
i'll try to get another battery and try it out
really appreciate your answer
thanks :good:
Weird coincidence. This started happening to me on May 10th. My 2.5 yr old phone would restart over and over even when plugged into the computer. I did a hard reset and it still didn't help.
I replaced the battery and it fixed it!

Problem Solved
it was really the battery
once i changed it every thing went back to normal .
thanks everyone for your answers :good:
Its also another weird coincidence as this issue has happened to me, my note 2 is also 2.5 years old and my phone kept restarting too, but i really didnt care much and instead, i continued to use it over and over and overclocked it to 1800 mhz and i have no idea how but is stopped restarting. It was weird, at least is saved me money buy not having to buy a new battery. But as i expected, a new problem arises, systemui keeps crashing. But the battery is still fine, all i did was flashed a new rom.

Samsung galaxy S4 mini battery drain!

Hi everybody...I have this phone and I have a problem.When I charge the phone up to 100% battery and then take it from the charger,battery drops to 99 or less without phone usage...And when I go to sleep and then wake up,the phone lost about 10-15 percent...Can somebody plesase help me?
Check what's keeping your phone awake during idle, "wakelock detector" and "better battery stats". Though you need root for these. You've nor given us any details of what your phone is and what ROM?? Try searching for threads on how to calibrate your phone battery.
Ohh sorry...My phone is S4 mini GT-I9195 LTE....I have stock android 4.4.2 kitkat...I have already calibrated battery and bought new battery...But same problem...
Will be an app causing your phone to wake
I dont know...i searched on the web and someone said that stock kernel have some problems

Not always the case... Depends when and where your phone was made. Could be a faulty kernel or motherboard but it also could be an app or a setting on your phone or an unclean install. Have you always suffered this issue?
I got phone about 3 weeks ago...and the battery was very bad so i bought new one.I also tried CM 12.1 but the phone is heating in unnormal way but the battery there is better...
You have problems with motherboard. Go to service center to replace it on waranty.
Powered by CM12.1
But my phone isnt on waranty...i got it used haha....ahh nvm,i will live with that problem.thanks for help!
Bad luck then. Normal consumption for our device is 0.2 - 0.3 % per hour in stand by.
Powered by CM12.1
How long does yours battery last with some normal usage?
Almost 3 days with moderate usage.
Powered by CM12.1
Woww thats a very big difference haha.

Your best bet seeing as unless you pay for a new motherboard is to try one of the battery drain fix kernels on here. Though I think you may be limited to certain compatible ROMs.
Why are you not staying on cm 12.1? For me it's amazing, i observed at least 100% more battery efficiency than stock (4.2.2). I also observed the same problem with high temp too. But i think we can't have it all. When i play games and the outside temperature is about 35 celsius, i do not expect anything less, because this mobile is not designed for this android version. I think that's reasonable and i finally can use my mobile with a joyful way without having my mind always on the battery stats!

Thanks guys! And i will try CM 12.1 for longer time to see if anything will be better!

oxygem os 3.2.1 insane wake locks

Been using this phone for over a month now and always has bad battery life as compared to what others are getting.. about 4 hours sot with over 20 hours on battery and it used to reach 10% battery level ?.. yeah it's bad... So I unlocked, rooted and installed greenify and amplify and amplify showed the cause... Take a look at this.. so the only way to fix this is to flash a custom stock based ROM right ?
I'm worried about that rijl wake lock.. radio issues ? I always keep my phone on 2g to get even batter battery life but sad situation for me here folks
thinking 4-5 is bad because you got 10 once. Hm...
I don't think anyone has been able to get 10 hours screen on time on a single charge on any phone.......

Sure! Easy, just depends on what you do...
Just remove all the Google Apps, especially Google Now. It's wakelocking the phone like crazy, because it's recording your location for example.

oh man i am so sorry the way i framed my sentence.. i meant 10% battery life lol my apologies. and when i mean others, they usually get 5h sot or more
RILJ is caused by Google Play Services, not by OP3 itself.
Get rid off GApps or just deal with it.

Battery at 0% after 12 hours - even if I changed it ...

Hallo everybody,
a couple of months ago, my watch suddenly passed from a comfortable 20 hours battery duration to a 10/12 hour maximum ...
I thought it was something I installed, but after a hard reset, a face change (I passed to stock faces that are more efficient), a Google Play Service check (37 MB at the moment), nothing changed.
Even after the wear 2.0 upgrade nothing changed.
I keep wi-fi always off, motion on, brightness to 3, screen always on (dimmed).
So I thought there was something wrong with the battery, I ordered a new one from china and installed it: the situation now is worse ... the watch lasts 8/10 hours ...
Any idea?

I sent it to assistance and I'm waiting for a repair ... will let you know ...
I have to figure my battery issue out as well. Took it off the charger at 6am & about 4pm it's 15%. Pretty unacceptable for doing absolutely nothing with it. I may have to factory reset then see what happens.
I used to get 1.5 days on AW 1.0.

I have the same phone, but don't have these issues. I have 1,5 day battery life. Did you look at the list of running apps and what app is consuming most the battery?

It says more than 1 day and still 41%. That is very good I think.
Do a clean flash or check what apps are consuming the battery. I use Accubattery to monitor the battery. Gsam is also good.
