Hey Guys,
you have also a massiv battery drain on your Pixel Device?
I need to charge it twice a day since I updated to Android 13 ...
Do you think Google will fix it asap?
There are a ton of battery life threads in this section - more than one page of search results. I know battery life has been mentioned with regards to Android 13 in some threads in this section, although I'm not sure if it was in a battery-specific thread.
For what it's worth, I haven't noticed any difference on mine.

Have you checked to see in the battery usage what's using it
I had this problem before. The fix was completely wipe the device then install everything from scratch, not using restore service. Additionally, I putting background restriction on many battery hungry apps like Facebook, Messenger, Google Maps, etc... Also, I'm using Kirisakura kernel on top of battery restriction. My battery can last up to 22-23 hours.

hmmmm, thats a shame, because it is bad enough setting everything back up again after restoring it. But incredible the battery life you are getting.
My phone has Shamesung health app smashing battery, phone idle and and mobile network cosuming huge battery again

Try disabling the Physical Activity permission of the Samsung Health App, it might actually do wonders when it comes to battery life. While it wouldn't affect your watch, your device would no longer be able to count steps [for me, that was worth the trade-off].
the answer is bluetooth and wifi failure and trying to reconnect NONSTOP. after 4 factory resets my phone suddenly doesnt do it anymore and battery life is fine. came to this conclusion when i connected my galaxy watch to my phone and is disconnected every couple minutes. looking at the quick settings id see bluetooth looking like its resetting itself. i didnt check the crash log but at this point its kind of common sense what it was. after some research last night i saw i wasnt the only one. it actually was so bad that my phone died over night even tho it was 43% when i went to sleep

I had my first full day with A13 yesterday and it was hard not to notice how fast the battery was draining, I would have expected this to have been picked up during beta testing
Less than 24 hours since update and I noticed it too.
My Pixel 6 used to be awesome in terms of battery.
But today, after 9 hours it's 30%. It's been some heavy usage, but it should be 50% at least.
Edit: The second day things went back to normal. After 16 hours i'm still at 66%.
The battery drain is bad for the initial 3-4 charge cycles, then it goes back to what was "normal" on A12. Which sucks, since if you listen to YouTube (downloads only, screen off) and use Google Maps while snapping photos (20-30 and no video), the phone will die in less than 8 hours.
In other words, the phone is unfit for travel. Pitty, because the camera is great.
You would think that now that Google has better control over the hardware and complete control over the software (including services), plus a huge 5000mAh battery, the P6P would do far better.
Sure, it's better than my last Pixel, a 3XL, but that was so bad I swore off Pixels.
The iPhone 13 Pro Max lasts twice as long with a much smaller 4353mAh battery. Without having to turn off 5G or regular services. What a joke.
SITREP !
Bluetooth issue still ongoing and still causing the major battery drain. Has 0 to do with what this guy said ^ . Sometimes its OK but most times it just crashed and restarts.
I dont have any of those issues. I guess I got lucky.
43% and it died overnight? Dude that is insane. Even if it is Bluetooth/wifi keeping the phone from truly going into deep sleep, you wouldn't think that alone would be able to completely drain the battery to 0 over the course of what... 5 - 8 hours? (Unless your my ex, then it's more like 14 hours ). Have you pulled any logs or looked at the battery usage? I'd be hesitant to believe that there isn't more going on there contributing to the massive drain. Gotta love google... I remember the first talks of Android 13 was geared towards smarter battery usage. Go figure.
Today my phone has been (and is yet cause the battery is not charged) plugged to a google charger for 3 hours and half and the battery has charged from 40% to 82%
The phone had the screen off for 1 hour by this time. This was when the battery recovered 40%.
I tend to think that we've got, Houston, a big problem here...
No massive battery drain for me. 8.39%/hr active drain and .80%/hr idle drain on stock kernel. Active drain is a little higher than usual for me, probably because of rebooting many times doing stuffs.
Fast charging is also the same for me using an Anker Nano II 30W charger. No problems in that area.
I have no solution, but I can confirm this is an issue. I had no issue before the update lasting up to even 2 days with light use. Now, I even with battery saver turned on, it dies in about 6 hours in my pocket.
I just went on a trip to Toronto last week and it was terrible, had to keep my phone powered off in my pocket so I could still be sure to have enough battery to get an uber back to my airbnb.
So far today at work. I unplugged my phone at 730am to leave for work, it's 1105 and typing this out is the most I've used my phone. It is both warm to the touch and the battery is at 73%.no wait 72% it just went down...

Here are 2 examples showing the difference between before and after A13
Just when I was about to switch to my P6P, I'm reading all these problems with slow charging and mediocre battery life. I wonder how widespread they are?
I can't use a new phone that seems to have a worse battery life than my P4XL...
Not to mention the whole sideloading apk FC thing.
Guys, I am also having massive issues with my new Pixel 6 phone which is approx 10 days old only....
A12 was fine for the first days then I want to A13 and then all hell brooke lose The battery drain is awful and I am facing these problems :
- Phone idle is between 20-37% - even when phone is in flight mode for the night it consumes 20-30% instead of normal 1-2%
- Viber is draining battery with 20%+ consuming when its not really used shows usage of 20+ hours Never had such issue.
I am over now 4-5 recharge cycles and I have turned off adaptive almost anywhere... What to do?
Just pray and wait for Google to drop a fix/patch for A13 for our Pixel 6 ???
For those that upgraded from A12 to A13 and having the issue, have you wiped the phone (factory reset) and started fresh? I know it's a PITA getting everything setup again, but that's crazy. I was at 100 percent at 7 am, now 7 hours later, I am at 66 percent with pretty heavy usage... Generally YouTube constantly along with everything else I'm doing. By no means is my battery life amazing, but def comparable to A12 on my end.

I've been troubleshooting this problem for weeks now - have never found a cause. I did a hard reset yesterday and have only installed the mainstream necessary apps - nothing sketchy or buggy at all.
My battery life is usually great and when unused drops less than 1% per hour...until suddenly it goes crazy and starts dropping ~10%/hour with NO USE.
I think perhaps something is wrong with my radio as the "mobile network signal" graph in the picture below is always spotty and shows the radio off for significant chunks of time when I know it's on. When these battery plunges start happening, it shows the radio as solid on, as you can see below...and reports the battery drain is from the radio.
A reboot fixes it but it comes back randomly within a day or two...the problem is that I can leave the phone unused for an hour to make dinner and when I pick it up next it has dropped a significant amount!
Hopefully AT&T will exchange it for me tomorrow and I will have better luck...I bought it on June 28th and tomorrow is July 28th...the 30th day, by my count.

16hrs on battery and still at 43% is pretty darn good if u ask me.
This has happened to me too on stock and AOKP. Just happened again a couple of hours ago.
So I did the exchange 4 days ago. Have not rebooted since then. Thought I was in the clear until this afternoon when the battery started to plummet again...I updated the screenshots in the first post with today's data. Very disappointed and not sure what to do now except to try and do a hardware reset and use the phone stock with no apps for a few days and see what happens...

I have used it extensively. Posted numerous logs and screenshots in the developer's thread and had them examine it...no one could figure anything out.
Tonight I have watched it plummet again. I turned off wifi - it kept dropping. I turned off mobile data, it kept falling just as fast. Lastly I turned on airplane mode and it seems to have leveled off...seems to me the phone radio is the culprit but I have no clue what it could be doing!
(Forgive me if I'm hijacking)
I scooped up my SG3 on Sunday, and noticed almost immediately that my battery drops pretty quickly. I haven't rooted yet, and needless to say haven't flashed anything on it. I'm completely bone stock. I guess I'm wondering the same thing, in that I may need to return to AT&T. I lost as much as 70% in almost 8 hours with moderate to heavy use (Web browsing, textibg, a few calls, etc).
Something else: there is an orange sticker on the box it came un, much like a price tag at a retail store. On the sticker it reads: "REMATE 7.11.12" and has me wondering if this is a refurb they unloaded on me. Any ideas about the battery or this stupid aticker?

I notice that my battery life seems very unstable - one day it goes 10 plus hours no problem, the next day with the same usage its dying at 8 hours. The phone went bezerk this weekend, to the point of multiple reboots and just turning the thing off since it was unuseable. Factory reset over the weekend, wow ! Battery life is rocking 12 hours easy with heavy use.
The software on this phone is strange to say the least -

The reason I say this, is because of the fact I've heard of 12 to 14 hours or more of battery with the same (mostly) moderate to (occasional) heavy use. I understand that usage = battery discharge, I'm not a fool.

my battery usually only lasts 12 hours with minimal use, the only way i can go more than 8 hours is if i switch on airplane mode while i know im not going to need my phone.. while at work.

So perhaps I'm worrying over nothing (hopefully). I have been doing full charge to full discharge cycles and charging once it shuts down to "gel" or "season" the battery. But, there still remains the question of what the "REMATE" sticker is all about. It clearly has a date printed on it, which strikes me as odd...

So check out this graph...update of the earlier one.
-turned off wifi - plummet continued.
-turned off mobile data - plummet continued.
-turned on airplane mode to turn off the radio - battery stabilized. You can see the plateau towards the end.
-turned off airplane mode - plummet resumed as you can see.
Any conclusions I can take from this? It seems like it's the phone radio/standby and not apps...

Of course but battery loss is a corollary response to usage. Who made the rules on what moderate or heavy usage is? Besides other factors like strength of signal, etc.
That said I personally average 10-12 hours with 4hrs of screen on time.

Didn't see this mentioned, the stock rom had a cell standby bug where it drops by 32(whatever the measurement is) instead of what's supposed to be 3.2. This has effected me before and there are fixes.

Juice Defender Ultimate works great for me at work. Shuts off my data radio while screen is locked.
The location for wifi(allowing it to control wifi) is a little funky so I stopped using it(and suffered a little in the beginning because i kept forgetting to turn off wifi at night)
You can see how much my phone goes into deep sleep mode - This shows last night when I went to bed

This is my battery graph - note that sharp drop was last night when I was installing the Google Wallet fix and the dev had an issue with the update. Took me a little while to figure it out as you can see.

That doesn't explain why the actual battery it dropping so fast. I suppose it could skew the "reason" the system gives for the battery drop...but it's further proven by the fact that the only way to stop the drop is to turn off the radio - even turning off mobile data alone does not stop it at all.

Your sharp drop is correlated to heavy screen on time. Mine is correlated to nothing...just sitting there with the screen off and nothing happening that I can tell.
I reported this problem back in June. This same exact thing happens to mine. Normally the battery is awesome, but sometimes it starts discharging at a crazy rate at which point I restart thee phone to fix it.

That's definitely my problem. When gsiff_daemon hasn't gone crazy the battery life is very good. I've only had the phone 3 days now and on the second found the battery discharging quickly when the phone was in standby (like the OP). I diagnosed this to be caused by gsiff_daemon. Seems to happen after the phone stops responding to input then does a warm restart. I only found one thread on this issue on one of the other S3 forums at XDA (TMo or global?)
Is there any sign of a fix for this? This is making an otherwise excellent phone horrible. I tried to relate this problem to Samsung through their support site, but just got a generic robot answer. Samsung's support site appears to be useless. Is there any indication Samsung is even aware of these problems?
I use System Tuner to check for gsiff_daemon going nuts. I normally notice it because my phone gets hot. If you use the Task Mgr from System Tuner and turn on display of kernel processes, it will pop right to the top if that's your problem.
The easiest way to deal with the problem when you notice it is to kill the process with System Tuner. It will start up again, but will not longer pin your CPU. A restart also works, but takes longer (and uses more battery).
You might also want to set up the Watchdog app to notify you when gsiff_daemon goes nuts.
I noticed you posted BBS logs, but gsiff_daemon will show up in Process, which doesn't appear to be logged (at least it isn't in the log in just dumped from my BBS).

So today, with pretty heavy usage (at work...checking facebook, twitter, email, web, texting, maybe 15 mins of youtube) I ran through all 100% of my Samsung 2100mah battery from 7:30am until 1:30pm. And I put my 100% fully charged third-party 2200mah battery in right after and now it's at 40% by now.
Unbelievably how terrible the battery life is with the S3.
This is with wifi turned off. with GPS and bluetooth turned off. with not a ton of apps running in the background.
So 1.6 fully charged batteries in 10 hours of occasional use. Wow.
The battery life is like 95% the only reason why I miss my iPhone.

That's either a bad device or something rogue is running. You are one of the few with that bad of battery.

Either way. 160% battery life cycle in 10 hours of sort of heavy usage is nuts.
In the morning I'll be just reading news on Flipboard and Pulse with brightness at like 60% and running wifi, no GPS running, with no huge apps in the background and it can go from 100% to 90% in like 30 minutes of reading news.
Could be a bad device or maybe some garbage running in the background. I get 14+ hours of average use out of my device.

Seeing posts like this make me want to order that battery. Probably will this weekend.
Okay, I know comparing battery stats is almost pointless but I will finally share my experience.
I am a copier technician. I work roughly 8-10hr days. I am literally constantly on my phone. Why? Because I use OTG USB A LOT. My usb flash drive is connected to my phone from the time I get to my first service call, to the time I get in my truck to drive home. I use OTG because I have to use different service manuals through out the day. So I am constantly accessing my flash drive for at least 45 minutes, each hour, every hour until my day is done. By the time I get home, I am down to about 30% or so, give or take 5% maybe. I use it at home to browse XDA until it just about dies. Charge it all night, than do it all again the next day. By the way, on my way to and from work, I play music in my truck. So roughly I get 10-14hrs out of my stock battery.
I have 58 apps installed. And Adobe Reader and sometimes that stock PDF doc viewer bloat is constantly running because my service manuals are pdf.
IDK.... There are so many threads/posts about battery life. I enjoy my Smartphone to the fullest. Run a ton of apps and and many widgets.
I used to try to do EVERYTHING to increase battery life, task managers, Better Battery Stats, going thru cycles of discharging and charging, wiping batt stats, calibrating battery, (which I still do). Underclocking, messing with voltages, etc etc etc.
It got to the point where I was so concerned about battery life I was missing all the great features of these phones.
I use my phone and all its features to the full potential. I bought a cpl batteries I keep charged around me incase I need them. And Overclock and just enjoy my phone.
Watching my battery life constantly and doing everything thing I can to increase it just took the fun out of of having a Smartphone with all these features.

What I've noticed on my att GS3 is that the battery destroyer without a shadow of a doubt is the LTE/HSPA+ radio. With this on battery drains at least 10% per hour especially with the LH9 update. As a test I shut off only mobile data toggle and the amazing battery life I had with my iPhone 4 returned on a more advanced phone. However, that came at the cost of having to shut off the mobile data connection. Mobile data toggle off all day at work 8+ hours and when I got home battery was like 85%.
I believe the data radio is the culprit and I hope they learn how to optimize its battery usage.
Had the same issue with the stock battery I had for 2 months, where just playing music screen off with about 15 minutes of data drained ~40% of my battery in about 2 hrs. Decided to get a replacment, with the same usage I still had 86% after 2 hours. Battery drop has also gotten worse with LTE on the LH1 update

I'd say you've got a bad battery, or a bad phone, or your ROM is bonked - there's no way you're burning through that much juice with normal operation. Maybe talk to your provider and see if you can swap the handset?
Oh, and discharging/charging your batteries does absolutely nothing. Li+ batteries have no memory, so you don't need to drain them - just use them out of the box and they'll work fine.
Might be a bad device or some garbage may run in the background, my cheap Lvbattery the Extended Battery For the Samsung Galaxy S3 [4500mAh the extend the battery] purchase. Eiemall.com fantastic. Easily over a full day
flashed a different ROM than C9/C10, "Triune 2" and started using the excellent battery/setting tweaks in "Go Power Master" and have noticed a pretty decent improvement.
Mainly by having Power Master turn off wifi/gps/location services while the screen is off, and only having my music/messaging apps running and shutting the rest off.
Highly recommend that app.

looks like its about $25 on amazon
but its thicker than the normal battery, so you get a extended back cover with it. sounds awesome but if you (wisely) use a case with your GS3, you'd have to find a different case

Our devices use a 4600 mAh battery and was wondering if anyone ever actually sees that figure? I've been struggling to get more than 4-5 hours use and started investigating why. The highest I've ever seen on a full charge is 4309 and the average is about 4260-4280.
Another strange thing I've noticed is that if I start playing a game with 100% charge and the tab plugged in I still loose about 1% per minute.
I've tried multiple roms and they all seem about the same as far as battery usage goes. Right now I'm back to the stock LG KitKat as it seems to perform about the best for me and very stable. I use the battery calibration app and was wondering is there another that might work better?
In closing looking forward to any suggestions or advise
Yep,same for me.battery life is terrible.have tried multiple roms,lucky to get anywhere near 4hrs.

I just tried an experiment, 100% charged, unplugged tab w/o turning anything on and I already lost 7% in 15 minutes !! I have Greenify installed and all non system apps hibernated and it still eats the battery.
My Sero Pro can sit all day and only loose 1%. If I could be sure I would receive a perfect unit I would consider RMA. But after reading all the issues with the screen problems I'm not going to take the chance. My tab is perfect aside from battery life.
I found a replacement battery on Ebay and am considering buying it to see if I have a bad battery. Something definitely isn't right.
I went to Mahdi rom as soon as I got my tablet about 2 weeks ago. This past weekend I did two battery tests.
These tests were done with wifi always on (medium signal strength, most google apps synced, google location reporting off, no twitter/facebook app, no greenify or any power management apps
If I left the display on indoors at auto brightness, it lasted for about 7-8 hours.
If I left the tablet idle (display off), it consumed about 3% per day (most of it consumed by wifi).
I would suggest trying the same thing with yours and see whether its a hardware issue. You can just do it for a few hours and extrapolate.
I've never calibrated my battery (drain until its empty) unless I notice an erratic drain from a constant task.
Mine is the same, not being used it drains almost nothing. Currently mine is at 49%, been unplugged about 12 hours with 2:47 of screen on time according to the battery stats in settings. 100% stock KitKat, bluetooth off. 15 minutes of screen off (with the screen on long enough to look at battery settings) and no % lost.

Same. If I leave it in standby overnight, I see zero battery drain (in 8 hours). I also tested a full HD movie (1080p) in full screen at 45% brightness and medium loudspeaker volume, and measured roughly 12-14% drain per hour, which suggests it could run 7-8 hours of movie playback on a single charge.
I'm happy with my battery usage. I think it's at least as good as my 2012 N7.
Here's a screen shot of usage just reading the other day. Keep in mind I mainly stop my tablet charging at between 90-95% as often as possible.

I'm with the OP as far as battery drain goes. Mine loses almost 10% in 12 hours at idle with wifi on. With wifi off it'll lose about 3-4% in 12 hours. I haven't done a full to zero test, but battery life is not that great on my personal unit. That is the only thing I don't like about it. I'm running idterror's v50018a ROM.

Then you have an issue with software you installed. It is neither the battery nor the ROM.
Well I went ahead and ordered the battery. I'm fairly confident it'll solve my problem. To Subtleone, with my tablet even with a barebones install I still have real bad battery life. It does not change very much between barebones and all my apps installed.

I don't think so. Even with a barebones install I get similar battery drain. But I knew the G Pad had terrible battery life going in as noted by every industry review I read prior to purchase.
Don't have any battery problems here (stock KitKat, rooted and most non-system apps greenified), get about 6 hours screen-on time at 70-100% brightness when reading books (wifi off) and an hour or so browsing/youtube'ing.
Are people actually going by unplug time until the device physically shuts down, or just what the battery bar claims? Battery stats are rarely 100% accurate, and there's protection measures built in to prevent a battery actually reaching 100% or 0% despite what the device says.

Except that I don't have terrible battery life. In fact, most don't. With KitKat (the one in my sig), with WiFi on, I get exactly 0% drain after 8 hours with it in standby (not actually off). Zero. Needless to say, I do not have any known battery killers such as the Facebook app.
At 45% brightness or so, I see about 13% battery drain after an hour of watching a 1080p movie in full screen with sound coming through loudspeakers.

Biggest battery eaters are apps like Google+ and Facebook.
UCCW and Weather apps too. Also having gps on.
There's some smashing eye candy apps for use and just for info on your lockscreen, they all seem to suck juice like no tomorrow. It's all the updating they do.
Best advice is to use something like wakelock detector to highlight your problem apps, then use greenify to get them to sleep properly. Also have your wifi set to only stay on when your tablet is plugged in.

To test a lot of theory I loaded up stock LG KitKat this A.M. . After letting it install and rebooting 3 times in 60 minutes I turned off WIFI and GPS and left it idle. In 4 hours and 12 minutes I was at 79%. Keep in mind when I left it idle the last time I was at 100%.
So at least in "my" case its most certainly not the software. My battery is scheduled for delivery 5/9/14. I'm hoping that will solve the battery issues.
Once I receive the new battery I'll update the thread. And thanks for the replies

My GPS is always on so I do not think it drains battery in any unusual way. I'll also add that it works darn well. I used the tablet for navigation in a car and it was impressive.
So to continue the theories I put my screen @ 50% watched 60 minutes of 1080p video via MX Player and lost 31%! That's totally bare aside from MX Player. So after seeing Subtelone's results I'm very convinced I indeed have a bad battery.
I know it's not a fair comparison but I've been using my mum's Acer W4 tablet as my 8.3 is being repaired for bad LCD (mura/spots). The W8.1 tablet actually gives me about 8-9 hours of web browsing time. Yes, it's got fewer pixels to push but bear in mind it is running the full fat Windows 8! I just think it's quite disappointing that the LG pad for me barely lasts 4 hours SOT when I mainly use it for web browsing.

Yes, something is seriously wrong with your battery if everything else is identical. My results are exactly as posted.
I have Note 3, stock 4.4 and rooted. I can usually go from 7am to 6pm with 40% battery left.
With the watch, now I have 13% left at the same time.

Mine's actually gotten better since I look at my phone less now.
Is there a lot of bluetooth interference in areas you spend most of your day?

I know in the office tons of people use Bluetooth. I can scan my office and the Note will show all kind of devices. Mouse, keyboard, phone, headset, etc.
If broth interference is the main cause, there is really nothing I can do to stop this from decreasing my battery life. [emoji25]

That's most likely the cause. I've read some articles that have blamed high bluetooth traffic for battery drain.
I would check your battery life under similar use during days you're not in the office if you'd like to say that is for sure the cause.
I wouldn't be surprised if moto makes more bluetooth improvements in a future update that helps the battery, just like the last one.
I have a Nexus 4 so it's ****ty as per usual
LG flex here. With watch I unplug at 6am and plug back in at midnight. With light/moderate use I end up with about 40% but I'll torrent and play games on my lunch break so it's more around 15%

The Android wear thread goes a bit berzerk when you shut off your watch, constantly trying to reconnect every X seconds.
That's really stupid - it should be triggering on whenever the bluetooth connection to the 360 is re-established. My phone has been OK otherwise (I think)
My battery life hasn't really changed at all on my phone. I guess it's possible that the reduced time I use my screen due to the watch makes up for the battery drain from bluetooth?
As been mentioned, if your phone and watch are out of range Android Wear will chomp away at your battery. I leave my watch on my desk at night and my phone on my nightstand (which apparently is just outside of BT range.) . If I do not disconnect Android wear, it will crush my battery when I unplug the phone in the morning.
For now, I just disconnect Android wear before bed. Hopefully a widget will come along at some point...or a tasker plugin
As far as when they are connected, any battery hit I take from Android Wear seems to be more than offset but the reduced screen time I use on my phone.

Have rooted Note 3 4.3 and Moto 3 watch... No battery issues here on phone and on watch...
I have a OnePlus One and the battery life has gone down some with the 360. When I check my Wakelocks, the "BlueToothRemoteDevices" is usually near the top. It's not too bad though, the OnePlus has a huge battery and great at battery management, so I still end the day with plenty of juice left.
Galaxy s5 battery life is exceptional. Even with the 360.

Just 1 hour screen time though.
With the one plus one, I go from. 7 am to 5pm and still have 60% left with about 3 hours screen one time. I easily can go 2 days with the Moto 360. It's mainly a notification device for me and watch so I'm not always playing with it
Sent from my OnePlusOne
I am having the same massive phone battery drain using the Moto 360. I don't have a problem with the watch battery life. But I certainly do on my phone. At work I don't use the phone (or watch) and the phone normally drains about 8% or something. Now that I have the 360 and Google Wear, my phone battery is more like 72% when I get home and almost all of that is shown as being used by "Google Wear".
This is a Nexus 5. The two are always within about 3 feet of each other. I have Google Now OFF. I have not installed any "apps" on the 360. I rebooted both this morning as a test, made no difference. Four days in a row of this now (since I got the 360). So then I tried to factory reset the watch and resinstalled Wear on the Nexus. No change.
As an example: Today I demoed the watch to two people. I did almost nothing else the entire day. I had no notifications at all. Almost 10 hours off the charger. I made no calls. I had no texts. I didn't even wake the phone AT ALL. 20% of my phone battery disappeared and 65% of it was ANDROID WEAR! 55m and 15s of CPU usage on WEAR???!!!?!?!! Why???? What could possibly justify that much load/power?
(Oh, and the watch only used 25% of its charge during the same period) ((Posted on the G-Watch forum, since I found a similar thread there first, but this forum is more appropriate))
Not to sound rude but you are complaining about going almost 10hrs and losing only 20% with a bluetooth device having constant contact with the phone?
That isn't "massive" at all. The reason it's 55% is because you didn't do anything with your phone at all, apparently. If you had done ANYTHING ELSE at all Android wear wouldn't be at 55% because that is how it works. It's that high because nothing on your phone was doing anything else.

Yes. Most people are reporting almost no power usage from Android Wear. Reporting 65% battery use for something that is or should be almost "idle" is crazy. I have used other "real" bluetooth devices all the time and have never drain like this, and they certainly don't consume almost an hour of CPU time.

Of the 20% of the battery used, 65% of that was Android Wear. It doesn't matter what else MIGHT have been going on with the phone, Wear, alone, is draining power at the rate of 1.34% PER HOUR doing what should be essentially nothing. And yet that "nothing" required an hour of the CPU being busy? Put another way- if I were off the charger for 16 hours (a full awake day) I would be losing almost 22% of my battery... for nothing. Now, if I were actually DOING something with Wear during that time, it might be worth the 22% across the day.
it is doing something, it is talking to your watch.
On my Nexus 5...
Before i had the Moto 360 i'd end the day around 50% battery left.
With the Moto 360 im getting 40% at the end of day. (Moto 360 is @ 30-40% also with normal use).
Hi, yestarday, I've recived LG g3, I've switched to it, because my G2 starting to have very poor battery life, like 10 hours with 3h with screen on. I've searched the forum, and I notice that most of u have 5, 6 hours screen with 30 h or more of use, but for me it will be the same as on g2, maaaaby a little bit better, I've restored all my apps, yes, but non of the battery monitor apps showing that some app is using high percentage of battery, let me show some screen shots:

Some of them can ba inaccurate, because I've just rebooted my phone, but u see that my phone was on 12 hours (with about 7, 8 hours at night doing nothing and switching to 2G only) I had 2h and 35m of screen, and I didn't play any games, just browsing internet, and I have 46 percent left...
What could causing this poor battery life? It can be some app, that is not showing in battery monitor as a draining one? Or what could be the issue?
You need to root your device and install Better Battery Stats, Xposed Framework, and Wakelock Terminator. Then use bbs to determine which Wakelocks you need to terminate to save battery.
Using this method got my battery drain down to about 1% per 6h of screen off time.
I had to terminate 2 wakelocks to fix my battery life: NlpCollectorWakeLock in Google Play Services, and WifiOffDelayIfNotUsed in Android System.
Nyorbee, I might be wrong, because I own g3 only for a few days, but your battery life looks to be pretty normal to me.
The phone drains really slowly in standby, but 4 hours screen on time during a regular day looks to be quite ok.
Web browsing is particularly taxing on the battery, because of the high res display.
Do not expect the same battery as on G2, from my experience it is lower at least by 1/3 (I upgraded from G2 too).

Yeah, we will definitely need more than 10 minutes of data. You don't need to go from 100 to 0 though. Just get some data from a few hours of screen off time and show me both the kernel wakelock and partial wakelock info.
Edit: The screen off time doesn't have to be all at once. However, the easiest way I found to pinpoint my battery drain was to charge the phone fully just before bed, and unplug it overnight.
My sensor usage also strikes me as very high. Is there anyway to figure out what sensors are keeping the phone awake so much of the time?
I need to see your partial wakelock info as well. Those sensor readings alone don't tell me much. One thing to keep in mind: as you reduce the usage of pointless activities, the usage percentiges for other activities like sensors will rise, but this doesn't mean they are consuming more battery.
I also need to know how much of that time the screen was on/off. If your battery drained 70% in 10 hours of screen off time, it wasn't just your sensors, i can assure you.
You should also consider whether your battery is defective. If you get a good amount of screen on time with a full charge, the battery is probably OK. But if you can drain a full charge in an hour or two of heavy use, you might need to replace your battery.
Good luck!
Also try Wakelock Detector / Greenify - an amazing battery combo

Thanks for the response. Here are the partial wakelocks, captured at the same time. Unfortunately, I didn't capture the "Others" page, but screen on time was about 3 hours. Wake time was considerably higher than screen on time. I've rebooted the phone, in case something weird was going on. I see what these numbers look like tomorrow. If they still seem odd, I'll repost with all the relevant data.
Ok, here are my stats over night:

I've lost 4 percent of the battery doing nothing over maby 8 hours.
But the real problem is when screen is on, than I'm loosing 1 percent every one or two minutes. I'm out of juice in 10 to 12 hours with less than 4 houurs of screen. I'll show u my stats after full battery cycle. And I have two batteries, it's the same, so I guess this is not battery fault...
If your big drain is coming from screen on time, I suggest using gsam battery monitor to determine what's eating the battery. It's easier to read, and I find the stats a bit more relevant for screen on drain.
4% loss over 8 hours of screen off time doesn't seem bad at all, honestly. Its probably improvable, but not necessarily worth the effort.
What are you doing during your screen on time, and what screen brightness? I can burn a full charge in about 3-4 hours of Netflix at full brightness and full volume, but I get considerably more time if I'm browsing the web at minimum brightness.
Edit: I'd you don't use it, i highly suggest disabling or uninstalling google search. It's a prime culprit for wasting battery. I'm not entirely sure, but this might break google now, if you use that. Of course, google now is also a big battery waster.
Are you on WiFi most of the day? I'm just curious, is this a residential AP or are you on a corporate network? We recently upgraded our school to a Meru wireless network, and since then my battery will go from 100 > 50 in 8 hours, versus 100 > 80+ when at home, and at home I use it even more.
When I use BBS at work, the awake time is MUCH higher, and I also have very high sensor use.
This is mine with wireless on and sync on. Rooted and Unbounced. Removed some programs access to internet.
But when i use it it drains like normal.

I'm experience a huge draining in battery life just last few days. It was perfectly fine but not anymore. I have tried to factory reset with no luck. I have greenify at work.... I don't know how to read from better batt stats data so I was hoping someone here would be so nice to help me with that.
Here's the log file:
http://goo.gl/xD5HE0
I'm not trying to steel your thread. But since we have the same problem we are search for similar solution....
Is it safe to disabling the services of google? My phone has v10c rom and can at most 3h of screentime.
If you disable Google Play Services you won't be able to use the play store or some other google apps. However, you can use Wakelock Terminator to prevent it from draining your battery.
I have frequently read that some wireless networks can cause more drain than others. If this is what's draining your battery I'm afraid I don't know of any good solution. If you have a good data connection and/or unlimited data, you may get better battery life using that. Have you tried disabling mobile data entirely when you're in Wi-Fi range? I have very limited mobile data, so I keep it off unless I have a specific need for it. I do think this has improved my battery a bit.
Again, i suggest getting gsam battery monitor. It's free on the play store, and offers an easier display of what's eating your battery compared to BBS.
Edit: don't get discouraged if you have some trouble getting your battery life up to spec. It took me three weeks of googling and tweaking to get mine where I'm happy with it.
