Hi, can I check if anyone ever encounter battery cycle and battery capacity showing 0 in Pixel 9 Pro XL for USED device?
What could be the reason, is it software bug or hardware issue?

Sometimes it happens. Probably to prolong the battery life.

Hi guys, my pixel 9 Pro XL battery life has been terrible the past few months. Not even halfway through the work day and my battery has dropped to 40% already with 2.5 hours of SOT. Is there any way to fix/improve this?

Some apps seem to be in the background draining lots of battery despite me not actively using it. Does it explain the excessive drain though? And that 10% usage from Camera being open a total of 3 minutes taking a few photos of my cat wtf.

Battery health is 93% according to the phone, but I'm not sure how accurate this is. I've had this phone since Aug 2024.

Yeah I also saw that article, for now I put my phone in power saving mode basically 24/7, seems to help a bit but still only around 5-6h SoT while on wifi.

You using 4G? not 5G?

I suspect 4G is pretty battery draining.

Not sure why, but 4G seems to drain the battery very fast.. could be placebo though..
