Do you use WCDMA (3G) or GSM (2G) in network modes?

Hi snk123,

Welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.

You may also want to check the Power Management section, this will shed some light on the expenditure of the battery.

Menu > Settings > Power Management > Battery usage

Go to Settings > apps > all > eco mode controller > clear cache > force stop then switch off your device. Fully charge the mobile. Its better to switch off the device before charging.
