Battery Draining Extremely Fast

Introduce the issue

Sorry if this issue is poorly formatted. I'm currently on mobile.

I have been testing my Pinetime for two days trying to find out why this is the case, but battery life is really poor: about 3 to 4 hours in sleep mode. This is the Gadgetbridge graph from last night:

I was using my personal fork of InfiniTime with support for Portuguese accents and some tweaks to show seconds in the digital watch face when I noticed battery was draining fast, then I switched to regular 1.15 (main branch). I don't understand why such a performance nosedive happened, and I don't want to lose my watch. Feels bad, man.

I've been with the watch for about 2 or 3 years, can't quite remember. I expected the battery to worsen gradually, not like this. It was lasting 4 days or so just a week prior to this.

I tried disabling raise wrist and shake wake up methods to no avail. Disabling Bluetooth on the watch makes me not have Gadgetbridge data to show here, but it drains at about the same rate.

If I missed anything or you want to know something I'll try my best to explain it. Thank you for your time and your work on InfiniTime. I hope there's a fix for what's going on with my watch.

I don't have the option to buy a new one as I live in a country where Pine64 doesn't ship to. I got mine due to a friend going abroad.

Start by reproducing the battery drain on InfiniTime main at commit 9afc23c, using sleep mode and the Gadgetbridge graph as the reported baseline. Compare it with the reporter's prior four-day behavior and investigate the recent firmware or configuration differences described in the issue; done means identifying a reproducible cause and restoring normal battery life.
