The problem for the battery drain here is software (Modem Firmware) related.

Calibrate battery help sometime on my Lenovo ThinkPad to get better values from the battery (Battery training, or Battery gauge reset), but it would not help here at All. The problem for the battery drain comes from the modem Firmware and calibration of the proximity sensor. sensor is looking for data all time long and prevent so CPU to go into deep sleep.

This problem is active only under SailfishOS. With FairphoneOS oder Fairphone open - there is no battery drain.
