It's been less than a year I bought my BlackBerry passport ...
The battery life is not stable.. it's discharging really quick. In every minute it's discharging 1%. Please help me regarding the battery life issue. Need suggestions.

Turn off " run in Background" on all your apps. Go to Settings, app manager, go to app permissions screen....
Also, if you haven't rebooted your device lately, now would be a good time.
you should reboot at least once a week. and whenever you download or update an app.
Every so often, it doesn't hurt to refresh your device by side loading a fresh copy of the OS,either.(I assume you're running the latest OS 10.3.2.2876)
I've had my Passport since the day it was releast to market and it runs perfect. - 10-28-16, 04:46 AMFaisal Islam1

In addition to the permissions suggestion, do you have any Android apps installed? What does the BBVE app show as your battery health?

Mine only does this with specific apps, like Kindle and Skype, might want to check if there are a couple of culprits...
- 10-28-16, 04:38 PManon(3732391)That a good idea, for sure. Skype is a real hog. I finally just deleted it.
- 10-29-16, 03:28 PMdmlisI have no issues with Skype on Q10 and on Passport as long as I don't forget to stop it running in the background. And I try to avoid video calls if I have no battery bundle in my pocket.

One more suggestion: to watch location services performance. I have experienced serious issues on my old Q10 last year when location service suddenly began to drain the battery extremely fast - ironically, only in bedtime mode.

Start uninstalling apps in the order they were installed to find out what's causing poor battery life. My money is on a stupid android/amazon app.

Did you actually say stupid android/amazon app. or were you just thinking out loud??
No matter. I'm now forced to answer with a responsible reply!
You guys just became my new best friends!!

Some of the amazon and android apps are great, but most of them are super clunky and suck down battery.

i would advise to get a second passport with double the battery. now is cheap to get and you got a lot of advantages.

Maybe location service is on or accounts are sync very often?
Posted via CB10 - 11-01-16, 08:46 AM85_305
Just watch the device monitor and look for applications using lots of battery, cpu or ram.
Posted via CB10 Passport - 11-01-16, 03:20 PMandi89
I look the monitor. The system and dhe display have more %. What to do?
Posted via CB10 - 11-01-16, 05:33 PM85_305
What brightness is your display? I keep mine at 75%. Also, I have low battery mode set for 12% remaining battery and that's set to dim the display significantly also.

it's Normal

Security wipe? Nothing is nicer than a clean, tidy OS.
- 11-02-16, 07:26 AM85_305
Unless you've got years worth of configurations and personalizations embedded into the os....
