Where to check the versions level?

Mates, will you please point me to the guide about version numbers?
I have L29C185B190, is L29C185B320 newer version than myne?...
Is it worth to update?
I have EMUI 4.0, how would I update it to 4.1 ?
Sorry for these dumb quiestions, I just got new phone...
Thanks in advance!

320 is newer but its not without its bugs. If you have a stable experience on 190 I'd say hold off any upgrades, at least until we see what the final release of nougat looks like

Thank, bro.
What about EMUI update? Or it should be done with the whole image? Is there any guide to read?
I had Galaxy Note before, and a bit confused now...

I did mine with the full downloaded image, but if you have an ota available then you could just use that. At the time there was no ota for me

Hi tatuk,
Just bought huawei mate 8 and i found that the battery life is not as well as i'm expecting ( 14% after 20 hours with moderate use).
Can you please tell me about your battery life with this rom version ?
It will be useful,, thanks.

Sounds to me like a fairly typical usage scenario, but of course that's largely dependent on your usage habits, screen brightness, cellular signal quality, etc.
Depending on my usage I've observed anywhere between 6-36hrs between charges. Just today I got 15hrs (down to 35%) with only 4.5hrs screen on time

Screen on time

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Xiaomi Mi 6 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

When i first had mi6 it was performing good but after 1 month i get less screen time then ever. I dont know why.

I am on Epic Rom 7.8.17 an getting 8 to 10 hours of Screen on time
I Had xiaomi.eu and official global stable Rom before and Had max 4 to 5 hours...
Can recommend Epic Rom in every case, works very Well!!!

I used same version of epic rom but i had 5-6 hours sot. Any suggestion?

I get a pretty consistent 7 hours of screen on time on both miui and resurection remix. I've got one sim and mostly browse Reddit and YouTube. the most I've gotten is 20 hours but that was exclusively watching offline futurama with low brightness.

More than 7hours SOT with Resurrection Remix + AKT tweaks(Oneplus 5 subfurm)

Mine is awesome on epic rom 10h+, but I don't really play any games.

What kernel and GPS and Google setting!

Screenshot SOT from Mi 6, 3350 mAh battery, MIUI 9, Snapdragon 835, battery remaining 15%.
Sync ON, Mobile Data and Wifi ON, 4 Active email, Twitter and Instagram ON, light messaging and telephony
pretty satisfied though

stock rom " Miui global - 9.0.2.0 "

Battery performance got down after the last update

I don't know how its possible, but 8 to 10 hours of SOT sound always a impossible to me,
I've tried ,
1. Stock ROM
2. Xiaomi.eu
3. MIUIPro
4. LianageOS
5. RR
Nun of them gave me more then 4hr 50 min of SOT
by the way, I will try Epic ROM now.

Hey what AKT tweaks do u use and does it work for oreo? im on PE 8.1

Anyone else experiencing poor battery?

I bought my Pixel in Nov 2016. Battery lasted on average about 1 day & 10-20 minutes based on my personal usage. In the last few weeks, it barely lasts 24 hours. I haven't added any new apps. My battery usage info doesn't show anything unusual or an app consuming a lot of battery. I downloaded GSam Battery Monitor but that doesn't give details on app usage unless you are rooted which I am not.
Have others also experienced poor battery although the phone is not even a year old?
Any ideas on what it can be? I haven't changed my usage either (I only monitor it on weekdays since that usage is basically the same each day).
Just an example here: took off charger 52 mins ago and it's already at 89%.

What software are you running? If you don't get the OTA for 8.0, I'd enroll in the Beta. This will prompt you to get the official release at this time. Once that's installed, I'd Factory Reset data and start from scratch.
Alternatively, you can uninstall apps one by one to see if there's an increase in performance/battery life. Also, maybe try wiping cache to see if that helps.

Yes mine went from 5-6 hours SOT to maybe 3 1/2 to 4. Horrible. I've flashed countless factory images. Never abkr to figure it out.

I wouldn't expect it's related to the age of the device necessarily. I only just got my Pixel a few weeks ago and it averages about 4 hours SOT over 24 hours with little left in the tank. It's got a small battery.

Mine is terrible on Oreo

You have to give the software about 2-3 days to learn your usage so that it can set everything for you, if you just installed Android Oreo, then, it's going to be at least a day or two before your battery corrects it self.

I have been on the Oreo dev preview, back to Nougat, now back on Oreo and the battery life just has gotten to be terrible. Factory wipes every time I load a new version on Android.
I get about 1.5 to 2 hrs SoT in a 12 hour period and it just about is dead. I have surrendered to the fact that I will just never had good battery life as long as I own an Android phone and I charge them any chance I get.

Personally I use Wakelock Detector on a rooted phone, but it may be possible to get information without root using ADB.
https://plus.google.com/+GeorgeTanner/posts/gT5f7XntmEu
The Wakelock Detector instructions for not having root are more thorough.

I am still on Android 7.1.2 running the latest update - NHG47Q (I think this is the latest). I have not tried the Oreo beta but would hope the battery life will improve since that is one of the new features.
I have heard that one should factory reset when going to a major update like 8.0. I just hate to reinstall everything (apps & settings) from scratch. (I am not rooted.)

Shouldn't have to do that... I've never bothered and it's not caused me any issues. I think people who suggest you do that are probably the same ones who suggest you wipe cache and dalvik cache all the time (burn).

The screen takes an awful lot of battery on this device.

My battery life was getting worse, and a factory reset a few days all fixed it.

The only issue with that is reinstalling all apps and settings.

Standby time is immensely better but lost an hour or so in sot

My battery drains really fast after I upgraded to Oreo 8.1. 30 minutes of Youtube used up 20% of my battery. It used to be only 10%.

I am,went from 5.5 on nougat to 4 on Oreo to 5 again on 8.1 dp1 and back to 4 on final.....sot of course. No change in usage

try getting rid of Back up to Google Drive took my SOT from 2hrs to 5 very odd

Battery is not good even on elemental kernel

Using stock pie ob4 with elemental kernel
And taking all the possible measures to save battery.
But I'm not getting around 5 to 6 sot. Which is very disappointing.
I'm thinking if this is because high brightness mode in my device.
Any ideas from you guys?

Mine doesn't last much time neither, because of dual sim and always DATA on.. But I'm really disappointed with the battery life. I got a OP5 before the 6 and it was better with the battery.
Anyway try to install the last update and if you change the kernel or install an update, just wait 2-3 days to see the results. (Don't charge it each day if you can, but that's normal, I guess lot here wait 1-2% before charging)

Pixel 5" Battery's life

I've been using my pixel with everything stock (not bootloader unlocked, android stock, no root) and i was able to get 3(heavy usage)-4 hours of screen, after the june patch im just getting around 2-3:30 hours, what can i do? Ive been reading about to try the Android Q beta 4, should i try to go there for better performance? Or downgrade to May patch? Or maybe should i start doing root, kernels and those things if yes, in your experience, how can i get the best perfomance?

I used to be in same situation while using android pie......i tried for many solutions like a custom kernel and custom rom, still i used to get a screen on time of less than 3 hours......finally when i shifted to Android Q beta, my Battery life increased to good level around 3.30 hrs to 4 hours.......Even in beta 4 also i am getting similar battery life, so i suggest you to shift to android Q beta 4

Thanks, im getting this problem after june's security update, ill try to go for Q4

Keep in mind that unlocking the bootloader will wipe everything, so be prepared. If you're willing to do so, I suggest at least unlocking the bootloader, even if you don't plan on rooting. This will give you more flexibility down the line.

I am getting poor battery after June 2019 update as well.
It's says that Outlook app (from Microsoft) is one of the apps taking up the most battery but I don't think it is.
The playstore app constantly crashes and I think this is the root of the issue.

For my everything was ok, but battery was draining too fast, im on Q4 and its way better

Something change recently and battery life back to normal(not greatest but ok). I think it could be play store/ play services. My playstore app was updated to 15.3.14. I remember it was 15.2.xxx a few days ago.

Yesterday I updated my OG pixel to Android Q (June patch QPP4.190502.019), thinking that the battery would improve, but it has not been like this
In A. Oreo 8.1 the battery had a useful life of approximately 13 - 14 hours
In A. Pie 9.0 it had a useful life of 8 - 9 hours
and Now in A. Q 1.0 it has 7 to 8 hours of useful life.
Does anyone have any idea how to solve this problem?

Time has passed since then. Check the health of your battery before coming to a conclusion about the OS's efficiency (or you could flash 8.1 and see how many hours you get).

No way of checking. Usually after 250 cycles the battery will be 10 or 20 % less than when it was new. Just the normal course of daily use.

I check the battery health by ADB and using some apps, and allways says my bat life is GOOD. Sometimes the percentage has stuck on 60% for a few hours... WTF ajajjaa:crying:

BY this logic, after 2 years of usage of this phone, its battery life would be terrible.
But mine is decent enough, giving consistently 3.5 hrs screen on time with heavy usage

Nice expectations for Q on this device!
Although I am on June patch, rooted with Magisk 19.3 and using ElementalX kernel and I have around 5h of SOT everyday, even with location and mobile data turned on...
On the other hand, I do use Bluetooth very little and I use PitchBlack substratum theme which certainly helps.
Gaming on this is a rare thing, I only do it at home, on WiFi, streaming from the PC using Parsec (burns 40% of battery in about 30 minutes straight...)

You are WRONG! Modern smartphone batteries start to degrade after 500-600 cycles. If you won't let them down to <25-30% It will last 500-600 cycles. Then it will start to degrade, but not by 10-20% LOL % by %, Slowly. It will last about 800-900 cycles before you will need to replace it to get back good SOT. I still have nexus 4 with battery that i put in it 4 years ago. Until then it had it's original battery. It still works great. Well great for being nexus 4 getting around 2.5-3 SOT every day. But i am not using mobile data and i am not playing heavy games. Light gaming, low brightness, good ROM + Kernel, WiFi ONLY.
Today i got the original Google pixel 5". I will get my hands on it tommorow when i'll take it from office. I hope it's battery will be in good condition. Seller said it's in Good condition overall.
