I keep having my phone completely drained of battery over night, and im not sure why.. Each night the phone will easy chew through 30-40% battery. Only thing that helps is putting it in battery saving mode. But feels like a temporary solution.
The second most used app is at 7% percent usage.
Am running GrapheneOS, anyone else struggling with this?
Wasn't a big issue with Graphene that it doesn't support any form of smart battery charging?
And before the responses pour in, yes, I've read https://akc3n.page/posts/battery-management/. And no, there is not a quoted source for a device skipping maintenance mode at 80%, or to refute the many studies showing the benefit to lithium cells, or to cover wireless or non-PD charging. When a "solution" is using a smart plug with HA to stop charging, it's still an issue.
Edit: I do like GrapheneOS. This is just a decision I don't agree with.
This is news to me. That said, I'm usually one generation behind but upgrade every 2 years as my phone is usually EOL for software updates by the end of the period. I try to time it so I can get a replacement paid outright at mid-range prices.
With the Pixel 8 introducing extended software support, I'll have to dig more into this.
