Oneplus 3 percentage to show while charging?



Hi guys,

I've got an OP3, and loving it!
One of the small niggles I just can't figure out is how to make it show the percentage while charging..? I've set it while discharging, but it has no effect while plugged in to the (awesome) Dash Charger.
I know, I know, it's a miniscule annoyance.. But one of the few I have with the device.
All help greatly appreciated :)

[GUIDE] How To Show Battery Percentage in Notification Bar



Maybe this is obvious for some, for others, maybe not.
Anyway, coming from an HTC M8 where I could chose to show how many % were left in my phone without opening the notification bar was a very nice addition.

It is also possible in OxygenOS! Not as obvious as in HTC or Samsung phones.

1. It lives in something called the System UI Tuner

2. To turn on System UI Tuner, you'll have to enable the developer options on your Android 6.0 Marshmallow device. To do this, head into Settings, 'About Phone'. At the bottom of the list you'll see the "build number" for your device software. Tap on this repeatedly and it will unlock the developer options that will be added to the settings menu.

3. Enable System UI Tuner. Swipe down the Quick Settings panel and you'll see the settings gear icon at the top of the display. Press and hold this.

It appears at the bottom of the settings menu.

4. Open up this menu and you'll find a range of options. Toggle "show embedded battery percentage" and you'll get the battery figure added to the icon, so you can always glance at it.

That's it!

You have to keep System UI Tuner enabled in order for the % to show.

Deep sleep battery percentage drop?



Hey everyone,

I currently have 6.0.1 installed on my XT1575. I've had previous versions of android such as 6.0 and different ports of 6.0.1. With all of these, when the phone is in deep sleep, I lose about 8-12% of battery life. Is this common for everyone? I've followed many guides to improve battery life that encompass using greenify, amplify, etc. I've currently got all those running to help with the battery. However, I still get this bad drainage of battery when I go to sleep. I've turned off all location options, wifi, wifi scanning, etc. When I check BBS, there are alarming wakelocks at all. The phone seems to be asleep, yet, it drains battery. Coming from an LG G2, I'm used to the phone only using 1-2% of battery while it is asleep.

What are you guys experiencing? And have you tried anything to improve this?
