¿Is it normal? Battery drains too fast because of "Android O.S."

Hi,

I'm using Android ICS on my Xperia U (Official Iberia 4.0.4 -- 6.1.1.B.1.10 compilation) and I'm having trubbles with the battery behavior because the process "Android Operating Sistem" (Sistema Operativo de Android in spanish).

¿Can someone please help me?

Here is a screenshot, in 3 hours 12% battery drawn in standby mode 95% of time.

Did you checked running apps as I mentioned upper? Because those processes are hidden under "Android OS" Winking_Face

Yes, I said before:

  "That screenshot is made with the fresh installation, no other apps installed, just the default ones.

  So, it is not because any application installed by me."

Thanks anyway.

And that's what I say - there is running a lot of useless system/default processes. It depends on it what you are using in phone, but for example on my phone is ruunig only 4-5 processes. I killed everything else and now it looks that I made new personal record regarding battery - appr. 8-9 days (before it was 7-8 days)

No matter wich apps are running if I haven't installed anything, it has no sense if you buy a phone that drains battery so fast because of default processes pre-installed by Sony.

Anyway, I've heard a lot of times that Google doesn't recommends any task killer in Android.

I think it is obvious that the behaviour isn't normal, is it?

Thanks.

No problem.

I have the same percentage over 50% and my battery last 1 day and a half, 2 days the most (closed during night) with WiFi on all day, bluetooth and some internet checks or calls not very heavy. Still on GB 184 fw. But I have also some apps installed. Don't know if it's normal. What is normal anyway with XU? :smileygrin:  There's too much elements involved in a smartphone so I don't think you'll get any specific help other than repair or factory reset.

Do what you think  Winking_Face  But keep in mind that your ICS is completely the same as mine, and your HW is completely the same as mine Slightly_smiling_Face  So how it's possible that my battery is working 7 days? Because of that what I'm posting all the time in this thread
