sounds like a bad battery to me. If you have tested with a bunch of different ROMs and the problem is the same then it's probably a hardware problem. Did you by any chance allow your battery to drop to 0? this is apparently very hard on batteries, though I wouldn't know because I don't want to risk it myself.

It does drop about 1% per hour during standby. I wonder is it a side effect of the Snapdragon turbo charge technology.

battery percentage

Hey guys, just wanted to ask you if any of you had had a smilar problem. Mainly, my battery percentage goes for example to 95%, and then after a few minutes it goes back to 97%-.. is this normal, or is it time for me to change the battery ?

hasn't happened to me yet. You'd better let the battery discharge completely once and charge it fully. Then see if it works or not
Apart from enoromous readings battery works fine.

stock or cm or aosp rom?
Stock 4.1.2
i didn't have that on stock only on cm and aosp
Heeeeey I started to notice this on my stock rom 4.1.2 yesterday after reading your thread :| But you can be sure that it's not a problem since I've bought my g last week so it can't be because of your battery age. It's natural. I think it's impossible to show the correct and exact battery percentage in any OS. To test, you can let your battery discharge to the end and you'll see that the end is sometimes 3 percent (the device goes off when it has 3 percent or more left) and sometimes you get 0 percent but the device is on Maybe that's why percentage is off by default.
I contacted LG and they said it's normal. Is it normal?

Yes it is, it happens on my device from time to time and I believe it's guesstimation technology :highfive:
What can drain battery faster on this phone?
Browsing the internet through Wifi or 3G?
Thanks.
3G!

[Q] Questions about battery

I want to buy a g3 i heard that this phone is really good on every aspect, but someone told me that the battery life isn't that good and the battery easily heats up.
Is that true?
I have one more question, I know nothing about android so my question is can I use stock android 5.0 on g3 instead of what lg is giving me on the phone?
Thanks.
Battery is great on stock lollipop, I get 5 hours of screen time and 24-25 hours total.
There is no stock android on the G3, closest thing are CM roms.
Like said, battery is good. Could be better I believe but it is good. Getting also like 5 hours SOT.
At the moment there is only CM 12 that is close to AOSP Lollipop.

odd im only getting 3 hours sot :/
Really depends on what your doing with this screen on time browsing,watching video,playing games
Also what brightness settings each user is using so results will vary

[Q] How's your G3 battery life?

So how's you g3 battery life. I'm just wonder because I'm running the latest CM 12 builds on my vs985 and am getting around 3 hours of screen on time.(screen on time is how I like measures battery life) I have 2 batteries and and external charger for my G3 with I got threw lg when the had there promotion. But before the g3 got bumped on the stock ROM I used to get about 4 hours of screen on time, but if I'm like most android geek we love our stick android and the latest version of Android. So below is a couple questions I'm wondering
1. What G3 model do you have?
2. How's the battery life?
3. What ROM are you running?
4. Have you found anyway to increase battery?

There are several threads in the General forum which talk about this issue. You should check those out.

Samsung galaxy S4 mini battery drain!

Hi everybody...I have this phone and I have a problem.When I charge the phone up to 100% battery and then take it from the charger,battery drops to 99 or less without phone usage...And when I go to sleep and then wake up,the phone lost about 10-15 percent...Can somebody plesase help me?
Check what's keeping your phone awake during idle, "wakelock detector" and "better battery stats". Though you need root for these. You've nor given us any details of what your phone is and what ROM?? Try searching for threads on how to calibrate your phone battery.
Ohh sorry...My phone is S4 mini GT-I9195 LTE....I have stock android 4.4.2 kitkat...I have already calibrated battery and bought new battery...But same problem...
Will be an app causing your phone to wake
I dont know...i searched on the web and someone said that stock kernel have some problems

Not always the case... Depends when and where your phone was made. Could be a faulty kernel or motherboard but it also could be an app or a setting on your phone or an unclean install. Have you always suffered this issue?
I got phone about 3 weeks ago...and the battery was very bad so i bought new one.I also tried CM 12.1 but the phone is heating in unnormal way but the battery there is better...
You have problems with motherboard. Go to service center to replace it on waranty.
Powered by CM12.1
But my phone isnt on waranty...i got it used haha....ahh nvm,i will live with that problem.thanks for help!
Bad luck then. Normal consumption for our device is 0.2 - 0.3 % per hour in stand by.
Powered by CM12.1
How long does yours battery last with some normal usage?
Almost 3 days with moderate usage.
Powered by CM12.1
Woww thats a very big difference haha.

Your best bet seeing as unless you pay for a new motherboard is to try one of the battery drain fix kernels on here. Though I think you may be limited to certain compatible ROMs.
Why are you not staying on cm 12.1? For me it's amazing, i observed at least 100% more battery efficiency than stock (4.2.2). I also observed the same problem with high temp too. But i think we can't have it all. When i play games and the outside temperature is about 35 celsius, i do not expect anything less, because this mobile is not designed for this android version. I think that's reasonable and i finally can use my mobile with a joyful way without having my mind always on the battery stats!

Thanks guys! And i will try CM 12.1 for longer time to see if anything will be better!

G4 terrible battery life

Hey guys,
so i have noticed, that my battery life seems not to be the best one.. i wanted to know if maybe some of you experience the same drain or know how to improve the battery life. I'm on the latest LG Rom (TIM italia).
It is possible that your battery is worned out. I received a new G4 when it bootlooped, including a new battery, and the difference was visible from how long the first one lasted. The phone was 11 months old, so maybe that is your problem.

I have three different batterys, but each one has this bad battery life.. also got a new G4 because of bootloop
Install gsam it will break down usage chances are you have system/logs battery drain
Try charging your phone with an old 500ma charger couple of times, worked for me

Problem for me was Google services. Killed battery life. Factory reset fixed it.
common 818 problem, not fixed and probably never will be fixed as lg has abandoned this great device

this device is one of my few life purchases regrets, i paid too much and got too little, i'm using three batteries and still not enough to get through the day with two sim cards active and data on and listening to podcasts for about 3.5 hours a day.
for me, I'm never getting an LG device again.. too bad they are the last removable battery device manufacturer.
LG partner in the country i live in refused to change the phone and only replaced the motherboard when the freaking thing boot-looped on it's on.
