[Q] Battery drain by Android OS - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

I found my Nexus 7 switched off after idling for hours today and my battery level dropped from 100% to around 75% after around 7-8 hours with wifi on.
The battery graph was zigzag like with a few sudden increase of battery level within minutes. Sorry that i forgot to capture the image.
Moreover, the device was crazily lag and the screen turns on 10 seconds after I pressed the power button on and every requests took a lot of time.
After reboot, I decided to backup everything and flashed the stock nexus image and see if the problem still exists.
After a few hours of usage, I checked the battery stats in setting and it noticed that Android OS was using more than 75% of battery while screen just used about 5-10%.
I also found the device was hotter even if I am playing less cpu and gpu demanding games, like Coins Dozer.
Web browsing, switching between apps are little bit lag than before.
My device has restriced profile, rooted without installing any custom roms and kernels and is protected by a leather smart cover.
Is there anyone experienced this before? Thanks:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

I have the same issue, it might be caused by smart cover...
Could you try to remove smart cover?

My problem does not exist now. I am not sure if it is because I switched off google sync.
I don't think it is related to the smart cover

This problem has happened again:crying:
Anyone can give me some clues to solve it?
I have the battery monitor widget and system tuner widget wakelock for a few hundred times but I have them installed on my Nexus 4 also which does not affect the battery drain by Android OS.
I have really no idea on what happened:crying::crying:
Please help

It does help after wiping but this issue comes again after few hours. It makes my devices laggy and the antutu and quadrant benchmark scores are much lower than normal ones.
Is there anyway to resolve it completely?

Guys, i got good news. It is android o.s related. Wasn't the hardware after all.
I'm using aokp builds from Dev forum,with Franco kernel and the issue is suddenly gone.
Looks like the people at aokp reverted some commits which was causing this.

[Q] CM9 Battery Drain

I just wanted to start off by thanking drk.hd and invisiblek for all of their hard work on the ROM and I love it. However there is a problem that I got with the latest build and I can't post in that thread because of the 10 post requirement. With that said, I have been getting massive battery drain overnight the past 2 nights and I was wondering if anyone knows a way to fix that. Last night I went from 67% down to 14% and the night before was even worse, 74% down to 4%. Does anyone know a way to fix that? It's the same problem I had with AOKP and Abduction and I didn't have that problem with the previous CM9 builds. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I forgot to add my kernel. I'm using the incredikernel hwa beta 2 running on smartassv2 with 128 min and 1113 max.

I do have those off. I actually had no problem on build 8 and I had amazing battery life and I've been using it the exact same way. I flashed over build 8 with 9 and then I started getting this massive battery drain over night. Weird thing is that it doesn't happen during the day only when the phone is idle for a long period of time.

Thanks for the response Tiny. Unfortunately, both of those apps are freezing up my phone and forcing a reboot.
I just resorted to a full wipe and hopefully that works out. Will report back tomorrow.

If they are freezing your phone there are other problems. Since you said you just wiped or will wipe hopefully that will fix it but it won't tell why.

You're right Tiny. After the wipe it seems to be back to a normal battery drain again as in build 8. The real test will come tomorrow though when I wake up. And the weird thing is that the apps work now after the full wipe. I still have a nandroid backup of the build 8 I flashed over if you want to do some tests with it to see what might have gone wrong.
Ok so it seemed that it was one of the apps that made my battery drain like crazy. I installed badass battery monitor again because I had a 12% drain in an hour at one point with it being idle with the screen taking up 40% of the usage. I uninstalled the last app that I installed which was the Videocam Illusion and I got only an 11% drain over night so it seemed like that fixed it.

[Q] Help! Flashed Jelly Bean, down to ~6hrs Standby Battery Life

I flashed Jellybean for my gnex this last weekend, and I've noticed a severely precipitous drop in battery life (15% in 90 min, 15 min screen on). I found this yesterday when my phone went completely dead after just 6 hours on idle, despite running some pretty severe power-saving options. I can literally see the battery draining as I took the screenshots to post.
Running 4.1.1 stock, Franco Kernel Version 5 (power save powermode), 2100 mAh battery - I tried to provide as much information as I can in the screenshots. The weird thing is that none of the information stands out as an obvious power-drain, its just falling for what I believe to be no good reason.
Please help!
First of all: congrats if providing such detailed information about your battery information! (I'm being serious, not sarcastic)
Secondly, have you tried running it with WiFi only to see if there's a difference? Also, you need to go through about 2-3 charge cycles before you have a good idea of our battery range.
Also, what kernel are you using?

CPU Sleep
Thanks! However, I'm already running on only one core, from a setting in Franco's app.
My problem is that there doesn't seem to be anything glaring that is draining my battery. Awake time is slightly more than I'd like, but not nearly enough to drain the battery at 10% an hour with the screen off.
And for the above poster, I have not tried running it with wifi only and no mobile data - wifi at my office is spotty, and I'd like the conditions I am testing it at to try to mirror how I would normally use my phone.

hmmm... did u try replacing the battery?
Battery
No - the battery worked just fine on ICS as of last Friday (28 hours standby charge). I would hope that flashing ROMs/Kernels would not actually damage it.
Thanks for trying to help - I'm really confused since all the ratios look comparable to people who get great battery life, but for some reason, just seem to suck about 5x more battery for me, so its impossible to pinpoint one specific culprit. I thought it was a mis-calibration, but apparently that is just a myth.

Let me start by saying that I am not an expert, but the following tips helped me. I agree with the WiFi and the detail you provided was great. I see that you are running 4G, this will eat up the battery. Your ROM may have a toggle for the 4G (LTE) and 3G (CDMA). If you have WiFi available I would use that. You may want to turn off the NFC (system setting>Wireless & Networks More....) unless you use google wallet or share screen alot. Also, I had horrible results with the Facebook app running in the background, which I have taken off my phone. I set a bookmark in dolphin browser instead of using the app.
If you are not seeing any improvements with in the next few battery cycles you may try wiping the battery stats in Recovery. The first ROM I flashed from stock my battery life was all over the map and wiping battery stats helped. I ran the same Franco Kernel and was getting 2.5 -3 hrs of screen time. Hope this helps.
also, get CpuSpy from the market, and see which speeds your cpu is using (or not using).
Not that this will help software issues but Sprint is giving away a free 2100Mah extended battery with the door. You just have to pay for the shipping. No scam at all, I think they know that they have a glitchy piece of product and need to help calm us down. Just call telesales and tell them you own a Gnex.
CPU Speeds
Almost exclusively at 384 or 729 mHz, capped at 1026.

So that means that the CPU isn't going into deep sleep, which is an issue.
All I can suggest is reflash with a full wipe, and reinstall the apps you can, and slowly weed out any rogue apps that could be causing said issue.

Deep Sleep
Sorry, I meant that when awake, the vast majority of the clock speeds are 384 and 729. I am in deep sleep approximately 75% of the time.
If no solution comes up in this thread, I will try re-flashing to stock JB/stock JB kernel tomorrow night to see if it just needed a few recharge cycles to stabilize, and if not, if wiping/reinstalling helps.

Yeah, that seems to be the general experience here. My phone is down to ~28% since the OP. Again, the proportions in which things are draining power are correct, they are just doing it too quickly (1% per minute of screen time).
I'm going to completely wipe and re-flash JB tonight, keeping the stock kernel this time, unless someone can help me out.

Did u flash francos kernel yet ?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Yes - every process/screen is drawing the typical percentage of power use (~50% screen, 8% Phone Idle, 8% cell standby), but the battery is draining 4x faster than it should. Francos app shows me running at completely standard voltage, and I'm on the powersave mode. I think it must be a battery indicator/stats issue, otherwise the proportions would be all off.

[Q] Battery Drain Issues

Okay, so I am getting pretty bad battery drain whenever I use my phone. The phone goes into deep sleep just fine, and wakelocks don't seem to be an issue. Whenever I use any app though, the battery drains very quickly. Now obviously using the device will make the battery drain faster than it would when it's asleep, but I'm talking about losing 2-3% with only playing 2 minutes of Scrabble or checking a news feed for less than 3 minutes. My screen is on half brightness, but it's only been a week since this has really been noticeable.
I'm not sure if my battery is getting worse or something (although I try to not overcharge it and let it get to around 50% which I don't see why that would be an issue) or this is just an illusion and it's been happening the whole time.
Has anyone found any solutions or ideas to help conserve battery?
I'm stock, nonrooted, running the latest update. I never have any sync or push notifications active. I keep NFC on but I've had that on since day 1 and didn't seem to be an issue before. I restrict background data for the Play Store (tried that yesterday but didn't seem to help much), brightness is always around halfway, and I am using JuiceDefender pro. I have the Amazon App Store installed which I've considered to be an issue, but haven't seen many people complain about it recently and it doesn't seem to report anything on BetterBatteryStats.
Bump? =\
I've been experiencing the same problem as you recently. I'm going to backup and format EVERYTHING and odin back to stock and see if that'll help.
I have a feeling it has something to do with my SD card.

Hmm I didn't think of that. I have an SD card as well but I've had it for quite a while so I'm not positive if that's causing it.
Tell me if ODINing it back to stock actually does something. I believe that the battery itself may be causing the issues though, but I'm not sure.
...So there's only one other person which these issues? What am I doing wrong?
I hate to keep bumping this thread but I am literally only getting 3 hours of screen on time when I'm on airplane mode and am at 20% brightness.

For the moment, my battery seems to be doing better. The only reason I wiped out my SD card was because my phone started getting hot at the bottom when listening to music from my 32GB SD card, so I thought it was some sort of corrupt file my phone kept trying to read and drained the battery

Battery spikes to 100% new Nexus 7

Everything else seems to be fine....has anyone else experienced this? Faulty battery? Simple annoyance?
That is some damn fast charging... Has this happened only once? Can you exchange yours locally? Might be a symptom of a future problem or something small that will never happen again. Most likely the latter

Yep, happened again. Only this time it spiked to 100% then dropped down to the real level......then never changed. I restored to factory. I'll report to see if it happens again.

The battery life seems fine though. Could this be just software related?
Seems more likely to me then the battery actually spiking it's voltage. That'd be potentially more serious...

Hey everyone,
My Nexus 7 (2013) is having the same problem with battery graph. There are about 2-3 spikes to 100% in every discharge cycle.
I noticed this problem has been reported in different cycles, but no one seems to be able to give a definite answer of what the source of this problem is.
BTW, after a reset to factory settings, the problem still persists.
ANY idea why this is happening???

I got my Nexus 7 2013 a few months ago. Never had a problem on 4.3 - discharged it, charged it without a problem. I usually keep it 80-100%. But 4.4 has yielded terrible battery life so I'm letting it drain more because ... it doesn't last 1/2 as long as when I had 4.3.
Got my first spike last night.
Been quite a while since I last saw a spike. Not sure at all what fixed it. Don't specifically remember uninstalling an app when it stopped, might've been the stock android update.
Happens sometimes. Stopped when I updated to 4.4, as did the random reboots. Wouldn't worry too much about it
Meh, still happens on lollipop...

terrible battery!

the battery on my nexus 5x is very poor. battery saving apps do not help, neither does a custom kernel and using powersave mode, etc (that only made performance worse, no improved battery life). I'm always worried about my phone dying when out and about, even if i don't use it much (and sometimes i really need it!). any suggestions?

There's nothing that will dramatically increase the battery for you on this phone. If your achieve poor battery statistics with the stock rom, it's time to move on. Get a new phone.

Why was your phone constantly awake while the screen was off? Wakelocks, my friend. ...Unless you listened to music for 14 hours straight.

You probably have "Wi-Fi scanning" activated in the scanning options within the location settings (in the three dot menu). I'm not sure if it actually has a big impact in battery life, but I usually disable it, because, as far as I know, as long as I enable Wi-Fi, it will still use it to improve location.

Yes I looked at it too, I downloaded when i caught WiFi connection wakelock detector, and here results:
Screen wakelock (camera, because double power to run, So thats not weird)
And cpu wakelocks
Music was only about 2-3 A.M, later about 3-4 hours, but thats not on battery usage, but on wakelock detector already is noticed
P.S WiFi scanning in 3dot menu i had turned off, but it still on battery usage is as on, but took not so much battery (13 mAh) so I would keep it away

i also had massive wakelocks, seems like apps like facebook and viber has wifi modes that override the phone ones.
for viber its in general settings of the app, while i have deleted pos facebook and use chrome notifications for it. if you use the non mobile site you can receive/reply just fine without messenger
We already have a very extensive battery life thread.

And the OP hasn't even contributed much info. Why is this thread still going?
