krishofficial, 06 Jan 2025Dude but a normal phone must be able to last at least 10 ho... moreI've searched the whole phone, can't find anything.

And these measures dont seem to even do anything significant to improve it.

No improvement so far.

I'm guessing it's the HiOS 14 software that's the issue and what is draining the battery.

Maybe it was not optimised properly for dimensity 8050 or something.

    Raiah, 08 Jan 2025An update to this? Does it help ?There's still heating and battery drain. No big improvement.

    Phone is regularly at around 40°C which I feel is too hot for just normal scrolling and light use.

      krishofficial, 30 Dec 2024Maybe later next year bruh, before that Tecno must fix this... moreI think Tecno Camon 20 Pro was promised to receive one Android upgrade, and we had it with Android 14 back in Jun, 2024 in India. I am happy with the phone, as I am still receiving security updates and running Dec, 2024 security patch. What more to expect from an INR 9,549 ($110) phone? Of Course I receiving a great exchange offer from Tecno, selling 11 year old Motorola Moto G for $120. That was crazy deal on Amazon.

          Worst phone I've ever bought. In just 11 months, this model suddenly turned off and bootlooped. It throttles very, very much, the leather back gimmick peeled off, the screen scratched, and the battery drains very, very fast. Overall, this phone is trash. 

            Rin, 30 Dec 2024I mean update not always work for everyone sometimes since ... moreAnyways Tecno must have heard this battery drain issue on some Camon 20 Pro 5G phones like ours, and I believe they must have started working on it... But why only some phones and not all? Maybe since before December 2024 patch, there was the October 2024 patch so I guess the next patch update will be in March 2025, and hopefully it solves this issue...

                Bishop., 05 Jan 2025Battery issue fix These didn't work: Turned off fin... moreDude but a normal phone must be able to last at least 10 hours of SoT without doing these stuff and casual usage... No idea when this will be fixed... Btw the battery idle drain is very less (like just 1 or 2% even after 10 hours of idleness) but when I start using (like scrolling or texting on WhatsApp), something else too runs in the background and drains the battery... I'm unable to find out what causes the drain... If anyone have ideas just share here guys...

                  Battery issue fix
                  These didn't work:
                  Turned off find my device
                  Turned off location services
                  Turned off smart scenes
                  Turned off dynamic port
                  ,, Smart panel
                  Turned off game mode
                  Bypass charging
                  Themed icons

                  Didn't notice any significant improvement


                  Next attempts I tried today:
                  - switched to 90hz
                  - turned on power boost
                  - turned on battery saver

                  Hopefully it might reduce heating and high battery drain

                        Mizukk115, 30 Dec 2024Well the "battery drain" Problem on "this ph... moreI don't think so, bro, cuz I just downloaded 5 apps after installing this new patch and resetting the phone, and the battery drain is still there, with just casual usage like whatsapp, snapchat and occasionally MLBB, with wifi and 4G/5G mixed, the SoT from 85% to 30% is just around 6 hours with this usage, it's very low compared to the condition before Android 14 update, cuz with this same usage it was around 10 hours of SoT... I really thinks it's some bug or issue with the initial (major) software update for Android 14...

                          Well the "battery drain" Problem on "this phone" Is the usual apps problem, I reset all apps in my phone and its normal again

                          Like typing in this apps only drawing 150-450mA which can last 10-15 hours

                          My daily SoT without heavy apps used from 100-1% is 16 hours

                          While full load/ gaming used is depend
                          Medium usage game as pubg can take 3-4 hours
                          Genshin impact is around 2 hours 30 minute
                          And cytus/deemo/cytus 2 can take 4-5 hours

                          All with wifi on
                          If data on take 5-20% of the hours although it too depend on what load.


                          Try to used devinfooverlay and turn on
                          Show battery, cpu freq and batt temp

                          Normally if you only do fast scroll on home
                          It only take 200-700mA

                          And facebook depend on whats in the page although stand still and non video only take 100-300mA which can last for 10-12 hours

                          How can I say normal?

                          I tested it with 5 other phone such as
                          P55 5G, j7 prime, realme 10, sony xz2p and S10+

                          Only sony and this phone are having the high end big power SoC, sometime it boosted so high even on idle although its normal.

                          Once again, try to reset all the phone apps and of course if not used, kill all background apps.

                            Raiah, 29 Dec 2024Just wanna ask, will the Camon 20 Pro 5G receive an Android... moreMaybe later next year bruh, before that Tecno must fix this battery drain issue else I'm not upgrading to Android 15, unless if that at least fixes the heating and battery drain problems...

                              At least this update not make this phone more worse thats only thing for sure if your battery drain not fix / change at all. Lets wait next update and hopes tecno the main issue for us (for who still experience it)

                                    Dec 5th, 2024 patch..

                                    Alright already try it, and heres my thought afrer use phone from morning.

                                    First of all what we want to know is battery drain issue.
                                    Its get better ,after update android 14 till last patch update sot is like 5-6 hours (which is worst). I used phone from morning already above 6 hours from 100% now is 35% or 65% used, i assume its will take 1,5 - 2 hours for battery to get 0% in total its like 8,5-9 hours screen on time (sot) . Well im not say its good but its not bad either. At least now battery life became "decent" even other phone with 5000 mah can stand for 11-13 hours sot. Disclaimer i dont play games at all so idk how long it will stand for gaming.

                                    Second is heat which is serious problem with battery drain. Sadly i need to say it not change to much, i still feel this phone easy to get heat even just for daily usage, its not as worst before but yeah slightly better for now.

                                    And last update it self, tbh i didnt notice any change since i not experience any bug when use this phone this update affect nothing for me.

                                    Well thats i wanna to say. This update is good at least for battery tbh i plan to sell this phone before since the drain battery so annoying. But now i change my mind. You guys should try this patch update.
