A couple of days ago I noticed my phone partying on my precious mAh's, it won't even last a full day anymore and even though it's being used quite alot I haven't changed my usage and still got a full day and more earlier.
I have auto-sync, wifi and 3g on constantly. But facebook sync is manual, other than that it's just skype(only when I'm logged in) and whatsapp and ofc google services. I think all Google's stuff uses push? I can't find any sync settings for that.
I should add that removing the widget was the first thing I did when I woke up so no actual usage is in the battery log. After that I checked tapatalk for 5 mins and put the phone down, after 20 min battery was down to 60% just like that...
I don't get why it uses around 40 mAh for a minute so often, at one point it was up to 162 mAh. And what the hell was it doing at the end? 60-100 mAh for a full hour? And only because I stopped it, could go on for alot longer I guess...
battery stats
Hi that is weird coz ur stats were excellent up till 8.20 ish, how about adding the 'Log running applications' setting in current widget to see what's turning on and draining ur battery.
Okay, I'll run another log tonight. Too bad the log gets like ten times harder to read with that option.

u could see it urself aswell btw, in current widget, go to analyze log and select top processes, itll tell u what is draining sorted with the biggest power consumer. from ur earlier log standby should be at ~4ma and whatever is at the top is ur culprit. but post the results anyway just to be sure
I can't find that option? Anyway tonight it was a mess: EDIT I somehow didn't see the update in my apps...
The top of the list reads: com.cyanogenmod.cmparts(what's this?); gentle alarm(gotta have this...) and audiowidget(I don't even have the widget on a homescreen)

CMparts is cyanogen settings,
audiowidget is the audio manager app -https://market.android.com/details?id=com.smartandroidapps.audiowidget&hl=en
u need to remember that android has a memory management system which doesnt shut apps down immediately and only suspends them, it does this for quick recalls of a recently used app. when the phone needs more memory for a bigger app it then kills of the oldest recently used app, to free ram. you can use the task manager to kill apps off manually but not recommended since it may or may not destabilize android itself.
As for the battery drain, its actually very good, u lost 1% per hour with all of those apps running. The spikes that happens is just the phone syncing background data such as facebook, foldersync, etc as well as standby apps such as viber and go launcher activating from when you actually waking the phone up from suspend.
Google does use push sync, if this bothers you u can shut it off from Settings > Privacy > untick backup my settings - note that this will wipe backed up data and application history from google servers and not ur phone - doing this wont wipe calendar or contacts as that belongs to gmail.
if u actually notice on current widget during idle the phone sits between 1mA to 5mA. this is the expected range, now say if u open facebook it should spike up, on mine this spikes up to ~263mA for a while till it finishes downloading.
Wifi is another cause as well, since it usually disconnects after a certain period unless u specify the wifi to never standby, it will use up power to scan for the signal every so often and then reconnect.
Apart from that ur battery consumption is excellent. you can expect to use the phone regularly (browsing, calls, etc) w/o charging for a couple of days.
Thanks for an excellent reply. The thing is it usually lasted a full day and with around 30% left. Now I need to charge it around 9 or 10 so it's a couple of hours short. I use my phone alot, about an hour of music, constant wifi, games, Tapatalk, browsing and lots of texting. I was actually surprised it lasted as long as it did and even if my battery life is good now it was alot better before.
I have noticed that sometimes, say I've just exited and game with 80% left. After five minutes it can go down to 70%, don't know if my indicator is failing or my battery is crazy.
Btw wifi policy is set to never.

So i wake up and took my phone off the charger. I am at 100%, I use it for two hours, texting/facebook(a little)/instagram(a little) and had a 3 minute phone call. I have juice defender on and brightness all the way down. I am on DARKSIDE.EVOLUTION.3 [6.23.2012] [v7]. I lost 23 % in 2 hours. Something wrong here? Or is it just me? I get about 11 hours on my phone while at work, mind you, my phone is idle most of the time. No service for internet cause i am in a warehouse, so all i do is text if i am on my phone, but cant use it heavily. Yet my phone only lasts like 10-11 hours. Anyone can help? Thanks in advanced.

Yeah i had that same issue. First off, update to V8. Its smoother and you save a ton of battery. Turn governor to Badass setting with 384 as min (you can set max to whatever you want....kept mine at 1350).
Next turn off all automatic syncing for all apps....Facebook and GTalk is the biggest culprit of battery wasting. To be honest, you dont need automatic syncing for Facebook, mail, xda etc. another big killer of battery is loss of signal. I turn on airplane mode when i am going to be out of signal for a prolonged period of time. Oh and obviously...turn off wifi if you are not going to be connected. I also found widgets to be a source of alot of wakelocks which keeps the phone from sleeping properly and leads to battery waste.
Next part is up to you. I use a combo of GSam Battery Monitor, Better Battery Stats, CPU Spy, and CPU Sleeper.
-GSam Battery gives you a detailed breakdown of what is using your battery, how much, and tons of useful data including some wakelock data.
-Better Battery Stats gives you a detailed breakdown of detailed wakelocks. (you are aiming to get rid of the wakelocks associated with user apps, cant totally eliminate some but get them way down)
-CPU Spy gives you a detailed breakdown of CPU time in state and DEEP SLEEP

So, when i updated to official JB , i immediately went abroad, so i didn't have access to packet data. When i returned home, and when i turned on packet data, i am getting higher battery drain. I am not turning off packet data at all because i was used to that. Can that be the cause of my higher battery drain. Syncs are turned on, also auto update on weather..
Here is screenshot of battery details. You could see that i charged it a bit atm cause i need battery to write this thread. You can also see that i used a bit of wifi.

Most of us are now seeing higher drain on JB exactly like your pics show. That's how mine looks too. Look at all the awake lines. I just assume its because I'm now running Google now. I've been planning to turn it off and test but just been lazy. On ICS my idle battery was dead flat and showed not a single awake line.

even im facing the same battery is pathetic
is there any way to increase ??
I swiched to Android Revolution HD 6.0.1 (with JB 4.1.1) ans since then I have a higher drain on my phone.
The strange thing is I have a lower, wehn I turn it off, but a much higher when I'm using it for browsing or anything connected with the screen.
It seems that either the changings have a higher usage on the graphic area or that (somehow) the screen uses more power.
I have noFrissl installed , and it tells me that most of the time the CPU is at 350MHz, so this can't be the reason.
Anytime I use the screen (by an app (even without internet)) it sucks the battery faster dry than at 4.0.4
I'd appriciate a solution and to be able to use my phone more than just 1.5 days (but more the two days I had before)
Ok this is the thing:
When i use my phone modest, i have great battery life. It means that im using wifi for half of the day, using it for taking photos, playing some games etc. As soon as i turn on mobile data network, i have higher battery drain...

I would agree with this comment. For me...mobile data always is a battery killer. I always use WIFI over it and turn off my 3G unless I need it. I save a ton of battery life. Your phone always is gonna have more significant drain hunting for towers and for a good signal. It sucks, but it is what it is.
Hi everyone,
I dont have this great battery drain, using always mobile data on and wifi when i'm on home.
The first thing you can do for better battery is install franco kernel r230-jb or Fugumod ( <3 ) kernel, this help alot with consumption and have no negative effect.
second thing is remove haxsync or facebook app , using tweakdeck ( support facebook&twitter ) or only one ( Facebook ) or mobile browser ( no update ) , its more less battery expansive.man with that usage, you are very lucky with this battery life, you have a lot of ~45% screen on ( ~4-5 hours ) with 8% facebook cpu usage, and ~8% haxsync , and some calls, of course battery go down so fast
another suggestion is always stay on 2g, switch on 3g(4g?) only when need ( for me never, because i use twitter/pulse/facebook update/web, twitter go good also 2g network data, pulse too, facebook is extremly low, but update and notification work, web is fast with Opera Mini.
No problem at all.
ALWAYS REMOVE GOOGLE NOW, ITS USELESS AND THE FIRST CAUSE OF BATTERY DRAIN
Hello xdadev!
I was hoping someone may point me in the right direction (I have searched but have not found this particular issue in the forums).
After an 8-10 hour charge using my samsung wall AC adapter (1 amp) I unplug my phone and check email, send a few whatsapp/line messages, browse the internet on chrome. the very FIRST app I use causes huge battery drain. For example if the first thing I do after unplugging the phone is use whatsapp then whatsapp causes 70-80 percent battery drain over the next 15 minutes. As an example this morning I used whatsapp first on my phone, then chrome. Over the next 15 minutes my battery drained from 100 percent to 79 percent (in 15 minutes!). The phone also gets warm during this time. When I check my drainage whatsapp is at the top of the list next to screen and my screen is at the dimmest brightness.
The next part is variable. After about 15-20 minutes of constant use the rate of discharge changes to a slower rate. Easily can tell on better battery stats and the native battery monitor software. Sometimes I can curtail this super rapid discharge by force closing every app i start for the first time after unplugging the phone and restarting that app.
I don't know of any other i747 user who goes from 100 percent to 79 percent in 15 minutes. Would appreciate some insight!
Btw i'm rooted running CM 10.1.2 and here is a graphical representation:

EDIT - Update 8/17/2013 - rebooting into cwm and wiping the cache and dalvik cache appears to have improved the battery situation. Drainage is more reasonable.
With the phone idle now for the past hour I have gone from 75 to 55 percent battery. So in the less than two hours my phone has been unplugged it has drained about 50 percent battery. I dont' see a ton of wakelocks either. Now as time has passed you can see the INSANE battery drain when i first unplugged my phone.
Here are some relevant screenshots:
So what happens if u unplug at 100%, and then just leave the phone alone for a bit? Try greenify from the market, it's free and its awesome!!

I use greenify, and i agree it's awesome!!! I don't greenify whatsapp however because I wouldn't receive notifications when I get new messages.
If I leave the phone after I unplug it, sometimes it discharges at a slow rate, sometimes at a fast rate. It's tough to predict.
One thing i've noticed is if I charge it by usb port on my computer it seems to hold the charge better and I would never get this kind of spiked discharging.
Maybe it's a hardware issue?
I've had to charge it several times in the car today (and on a long drive as well) ... check out that loss of charge when I woke up today!
Yea, I'm kinda at a loss bro. Unless your phone/battery is older? Might be time to replace the battery and see if that does any good? Wish I could be of more help...

from what I have heard, google apps can sometimes be very sneaky and hard to detect. its worth a shot
Turn off data if the drain stops you know its an app that's locked into using your data and causing high wake locks. Apps that show low to no data usage when you know you use them usually show up in android is as background for some reason. Ie (YouTube). Really just freeze one app at a time to test them

Take out your battery lay it on its side, if it spins like a top it's bad and needs replacing, seen many different samsung phones do that.

LOL a battery within a phone within a battery within a phone.
Interestingly, I booted into cwm and cleared cache and dalvik cache ... charged up back to 100 percent and now i'm 20 minutes in and at 98 percent ... I guess I have to do that every time i unplug?

Nah it might have just been a one time thing and you might have fixed whatever app was doing it. If it happens again. Redo the clearing. Slap that thanks button! And put a solution in op for future people!
Like a lot of people I found myself with battery woes on the G4, at first my battery was comparable to my G3, if not a little bit better but over time, and certainly since MM was released, my battery life was quite frankly awful.
Long Story
I was losing power rapidly, even when I was barely touching the phone - so I finally decided to look into it. After carefully monitoring apps, wakelocks etc nothing looked out of place, everything was working normally until I installed my old faithful app - SetCPU, this is a nice basic app that just shows what your CPU has clocked too and how long it spent there in a given timescale and one thing alarmed me greatly. I was getting less than one minute of deep sleep in every 60 minutes the phone was running - now if I had been using the phone for 58 minutes of that hour I would expect this, only I hadn't!
I did more testing, and more testing and more testing but the results were the same, the phone barely entered deep sleep, and when it did it didn't stay there very long.
Now as I said, using all the other apps, and android stats, nothing looked particularly out of place and after a few days of trying everything under the sun to fix the problem I decided to go nuclear. I wiped the phone, installed no third party apps but setcpu and began testing. I left the phone for a period of 10 minutes to see what the deep sleep value was (looking for it to be somewhere between 80 and 100% of time, which it was!) and it seemed to be back to normal, working fine. So then I started to install my core apps, one by one running the same 10 minute test between each one, idea being eventually I would hit whatever app it was that caused me problems.
So I installed upwards of 30 apps, and everything was still fine, in 10 minutes of not using my phone I was getting around 9 minutes of deep sleep, which is what you would expect.
And then came facebook, now I know there are lots of reports of facebook being a bad app blah blah blah, but I have never seen facebook react like this before, and I don't know if it was marshmallow or a mixture of marshmallow and LG - but when facebook is installed my phone stopped sleeping again, at first it wasn't a huge change, but was noticeable it dropped to deep sleeping at about the 40% mark so I had 4 minutes deep sleep in my 10 minute test - force closing facebook made no difference, I tested it again and again, rebooted and again - same results.
I then installed facebook messenger, and my deep sleep dropped again, to about 20%.
I then uninstalled messenger - no change.
I then rebooted - back to 40%
I then removed facebook - no change
I then rebooted - back to 80+ %.
TLDR: The "Solution"
Now for some of you this won't be a solution as you will claim you need the apps, but there are third party alternatives out there that work pretty well without causing this issue.
Facebook (and facebook messenger) on stock MM builds (at least on the G4) causes the phone to hardly ever enter "deep sleep", this means it is always running a CPU clock, albeit the lowest setting, but it consumes far more power than it needs too especially when the phone is not in use.
After removing them my phone is now sleeping fine and my battery life is back to being very good - lost 4% in the last 8 hours (albeit idle, I was asleep), which is much better than losing 4% an hour that I was before facebook was removed.
Go give it a try, install setcpu, reset the timer close go back to your home screen then leave your phone for 10 minutes then check your deep sleep values, then try it after removing facebook (and rebooting).
Let me know how you get on.

I was having these issues too after upgrading to MM. My battery life was appalling and Facebook was keeping the phone awake for hours at a time. I simply did a full factory reset, and then restored my phone from the most recent backup. My battery life is now excellent, even with Facebook and Messenger installed
There was a wakelock introduced with the new version of facebook about a week ago not sure if it is still relevant. It goes by the name of bugreporting service. Something like that. The same goes with FB messenger. I got pissed off with the official app because of this and got Metal instead
I don't run Facebook (never have) or any messaging other than Hangouts and battery is always great (2-3 days). If you don't need it...uninstall it.
Kindle app was always a great one for running constantly in the background for no reason. So I bought an actual Kindle and didn't use the app.
I totally agree with the OP, I started having the exact issues after I updated to the latest facebook and messenger apps and my phone was entering deep sleep at all. I removed them last night and its much much better now.

Until a few weeks ago, the Facebook app had a setting where you could choose the sync frequency and I was able to set mine to every 4 hours.
This setting appears to have disappeared now. Could this be the problem?
Nope. It's not the solution. I uninstalled Facebook but am barely getting 2+ hours of screen-on time on v20b.
A Redditor mentioned that some process called 'logd' is eating up resources and killing battery life. I used Terminal Emulator to verify it.
Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk
logd is a separate issue that no one has quite worked out what is causing it - it is to do with error reporting, either from LG or Google apps.
That redditor here. Logd isn't actually logging anything when its CPU usage hits 16% (the problem). You can verify by running logcat in adb shell while watching cpu usage in terminal emulator on phone.
I removed logd by renaming the binary, it's over doubled by SOT from 1-2h to 4+h. As this is my first post on xda I can't link the thread I made on reddit about it -- but you'll find it on /r/lgg4 on the first page ("PSA: How to fix 6.0 / marshmallow logd battery drain (TWRP/root)")

about 5% lost per night
WiFi always on, whatsup, maildroid checking one imap mailbox for every 120 mins (set to wake up the phone), ok google OFF, now cards OFF, backup-ing OFF. Steady about 5% (4-6%) per night.
Now, I flashed factory image 7.0.0. everything stock. Then I flashed boot.img with disabled encryption and formated data and cache. Everything is as it is described above expect for the maildroid has NOT been even installed yet.
And that's what I get second night in a row (rebooted, cache wiped from recovery mode before leaving the phone):
23% eaten for doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
What even worse, even android itself does not know what it was doing that it ate so much battery because the percentages does not add up for the whole drain.
After so many time invested into this phone for getting pure stock 7.0 unencrypted I just feel exhausted and want to throw this phone out of the window.
I'd appreciate a right direction for figuring out what drains the battery.
Yeah battery blows with nougat. Significant Google play services drain mainly bet scheduler. Had somewhat similar with MM but was able to really calm it down with Power Nap, bit since Xposed is not out yet for N....I'm nandroiding back to MM too.

I downgraded to MM, and it became normal. The next day I missed the quick switching between the last two opened apps and I flashed N again))
Actually, this night it drained 8% what is kinda OK. What I additionally did was that I disabled under google account sync everything except for the contacts and calendar. Also I activated data saver and added only whatsup there. Wifi was on all night, but he phone did not seem to be waking up during the night at all, what is good because I didn't need it to be doing anything except for idling in case someone calls for emergency. So, I guess after some hard tweaking and disabling things I can cope with N, but mostly for the sake of awesome interface features.

Just give it sometime...things are settling in...so a lot of time play services and stuff also go crazy...also apps are getting updated as well...give it a week or so...things will be better
I had this sort of issue on DP5 after a while but clean flashing MM stock and then re-OTAing to N seemed to fix it for me and I'm back at 5-6% overnight.
I honestly think there is a bug in there somewhere, whether its Google services or what i've no idea as my battery stats didn't seem to add up to the drain I was seeing. I had a similar weird drain before on MM too which a wipe sorted out.
give the system some time to settle in. i upgraded to N the day it came out and after giving android a few days i recognize no major difference in performance or battery life, even though things like Force Doze are incompatible now.

I went back to MM not because of the idle drain, infact, I had no drain but the SOT sucks... Like 2-3 hours instead of 4-5 on MM. Maybe I'll wakt until Xposed it compatible again...
Hi, I don't mean to hijack the thread, but I posted about an issue with the screen, which is battery related as well. Actually when idle I have almost no battery drain (up to 2% per night). Could you take a look at this thread regarding the issue: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/nexus-5x-android-7-screen-battery-usage-t3463591
I have screenshots prepared (even worse than what I've already described), but as already mentioned I don't have enough posts in order to be able to post them here.
Is this an issue with the screen, battery or OS? The device is new with the OTA Nougat update.
How exactly did you downgrade to Marshmallow? I'd like to know because my 5X drains battery like crazy without doing anything on 7.0
