I do not know if your issue is solved but I had similar problem. My battery used to drain about 6% per day which gave like 2 weeks of battery life instead of suggested 24 days. Not a huge problem like yours but still. Well last week I read that this battery should be formatted first and its good to keep the watch plugged to the charger additional hour after it reaches 100%. On the same day a new firmware update was released. I did the longer charing and now, 5 days later, my battery status is 93%! I do not know if the new firmware helped as well, but who knows... I hope it will help you.

Hi^^ No way... impossible in 30 minute to discharge or charge. It takes 1H30 // 2 H to charge normally with a 5V 1Amp wall charger to charge it.
Your battery isn't calibrated or dead battery [ Main problem for GTR made before December 2019 ]

The best way to resolve your problem is :
Firmware update
Hard reset // Factory reset
Charge it with a 1amp // 1.5amp 5v wall charger
Let it charge to 100% and @ 100%, don't unplug it let it alone charging for an extra 2 hour time.
Don't let the battery die... @ 20 / 25% Charge it and repeat the first process

Always charge it with a wall charger 1Amp // 1.5 amp 5V.... the battey is a small battery, if you have an old "branded" wall charger for a old phone [ like samsung it's perfect ] Sure you have one somewhere in your house.

* and avoid fast charger over 2amp or USB charge [ Fast charger or USB charge plugged to a PC // USB Hub is avoid on my side, it's personal choice ]

I also have a problem with the battery, my problem arises when updating the Zepp, my battery from 100% lasts only in 3 days, whereas previously it could be up to a week on a single charge
