Not charging as quickly as used to since Cyanogenmod 11 Nightly flash - LG Optimus G Pro

Hello,
Not sure if I am supposed to (allowed to?) ask for help or troubleshooting on Nightlies. ^_^' So sorry if I am doing something wrong. I'm fairly new and have only really helped a couple of people fix stuff here on XDA.
I have an LG Optimus G pro e980 running cm-11-20140425-NIGHTLY which is Android 4.4.2 KitKat. When I flashed it I factory reset, cleared cache, cleared dalvik cache, and flashed the ROM and flashed Gapps. When the ROM booted up I didn't do a second factory reset, don't know if this is bad. Here is the tutorial I followed. http://true-android.blogspot.com/2013/12/update-lg-optimus-g-pro-e980-to-android_10.html I still have excellent battery life, it just doesn't charge as quickly as it used to. I think the battery life is actually better with Cyanogen.
I was having terrible battery life but it was because I had setCPU holding the CPU at 1.7ghz constantly, and CleanMaster wouldn't allow the phone to deep sleep. I can deep sleep now and have resolved all battery drainage issues.
Here's screens of CPU

That is after 23 hours uptime.

On stock ROM I could 100% the phone in 45 minutes to an hour from like 20-30% range. it would take only a few minutes when I was around 85%. It charged ridiculously fast and I loved it. Now on Cyanogenmod it takes 6-8+ hours to charge. I find myself tied to a charger all day now. Sometimes when I put it on the charger at night and wake up it'll only be at like 94%. I did some research and I think it might be the kernel changing the voltage regulator's amperage limit. I don't know if this is the issue, or how to go about fixing it. I haven't flashed a kernel myself (at least I don't think so). Kernels are new to me. Perhaps there is an app to change the voltage regulator's setting, or a different kernel? or maybe it's just a problem with the Nightly and it will be resolved eventually? Seriously this is almost enough to make me go to the stock ROM again, lolxd.
Also, I get the message every few minutes "Unfortunately, Google+ has stopped responding". Could be this be because I didn't do the second factory reset?
Thanks, the best.

Bad flash? Have you tried a clean install?

I did a clean install and it is still charging much slower than it was on the stock ROM. The "Unfortunately, Google+ has stopped" error is gone though. That's good. ^_^ Think it's just because KitKat draws in too many system resources? Then again my battery life is still great as far as I can tell... Hmm...

working
Thought I would update on this. It's working now.
Thanks for the advice on flashing again as that solved a lot of problems i was having.
It seems to have sorted itself out over time, though. It's charging just as quickly as ever now. (If not faster than ever). It probably just needed a few charge/discharge cycles for the new ROM to adjust to the battery capacity. Thanks for the help, though. ^^

[Q] viper rom draining battary

I been using viper rom for a while now but the rom is eating my battary up. i loose 10% in 5 minutes of browsing or listening to music. Best rom out in my opinion but the battary drainage is becoming an issue. I wiped battary stats and recharged while phone is off and problem persist. i lowered clock speeds and adjusted profiles while screen is off but helped very little.
any suggestions?

Might be a specific app or something. Post a screenshot of your battery graph
I'm not experiencing unexpected battery drain on Viper. I'm betting you have an app or setting wreaking havoc. Did you restore Apps and App data from TB? That could be a cause. It could also be an App that's not playing nice with the ROM. Run some battery and cpu apps that may help you nail the rogue down. You could also try a full wipe and re-flash, then install your apps fresh from the market. Appbak from the market can help make this process easier.
I have used TB to restore apps...i would hate to reflash and restore apps the long way but so far this is the best rom out. thanks!

Im running viperrom as well and it actually seems like my battery lasts forever but its just reporting wrong. the other night I got LOS around 50% and when I rebooted the phone it came back on at 9%, today same thing happened, was above 70, rebooted and was in the 40's... but then once it finally does die, charge it for a few minutes and then turn it back on and it magically charged 70% in a few minutes, check this battery graph out...
I need to figure out why my awake time was so much greater than the screen-on time... I did stream pandora but that was less than an hour and it is only shown as 4% of the battery usage.
(taken with the netbooks webcam is why the pictures are so great...)

[Q] missing processes for battery usage

Hey guys, very new to the note 2 here and after I charge to full I only get a few items showing up when I go to
Check battery usage. Gsam shows everything fine but I'm wondering if anyone has any insight on this. It has happened on both Clean Rom and SkyNote. The last time it only showed screen and idle. I wiped and reflashed but it still happens.

It wipes it all when it's fully charged. Try running it down to like 60 or so and see if any other apps show up. My guess is that they are just taking up less that 1% battery over the 3 minutes

Alright I'll let it run down, but it's weird cuz android OS and System are never below 1%, they're usually always there. On Gsam they are showing up. Xda app is there too at 13%
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
Alright so I found a few threads with the same issue of different roms/phones unfortunately no posted resolution.
Tried wiping caches fixing permissions, uninstalling apps, reflashing the kernel. Nothing had worked until I reset Perseus kernel to default settings and rebooted. Soon as the phone came back I was able to see 8 or so processes and apps were now there like usual.
My settings are back to how I had it before all this started so we will see if it happens again

@ speghead, Yikes, I just lost all items in my battery usage screen except the main graph and hope I don't have to bomb my phone back as far as you did. Will try full drain and full charge first. What other threads did you find for this issue?
Edit:
D'oh! The per-application battery stats came back at the next full charge. On thing that can throw this off is that some battery meters report 100% at a point when the android system does not yet consider it full and if you stop charging at that point the stats may not refresh.

[Q] note 4 battery drain /overheating

Hey all. I'm currently using note 4 all stock TouchWiz, and I've noticed these of the past few weeks that my phone has begun to become much hotter slower and have decreased battery life. The battery life was initially worse just downloading lollipop, but over the past couple weeks it's gotten much worse. I have seen that some people have benefited from doing a full factory reset on the phone, I'm just wondering if I could maybe avoid that. Any suggestions? I included a screenshot from my phone today, where Android system took up 15% of my battery. It seems that some unknown entity took up 46 percent on battery as you can see from the percentages listed. I've tried to look and see if there's anything that seems to be draining it with various apps but haven't been able to find anything. Any help would be appreciated.
IMO, you answered your own question. Yes you should factory reset. Reason is your /data partition file system is mixed KitKat and Lollipop.
Hard to say what the battery drain is specifically. Your Connections Optimizer and Google Services use is high. Don't need the Connections Optimizer since what? Stock Gingerbread maybe? LOL; sorry, had to ask. IMO, Android has been more capable since then if not before.

Thanks for the response. I have no idea why my Google services is so high, but that was a major cause of my battery drain on my gs3 prior to my note 4 as well. As for connections optimizer, is there a way to disable it?

You'll find Connections Optimizer in Settings/More networks/Mobile networks.
For Google Services, I used a tool "MyAndroidTools" in Google Play to disable some services per this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60023591&postcount=1
There's also an app I just found that sounds interesting https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.playfulgeeks.gservicefix
Try one of those after a factory reset.

Lg g4 battery HELP

Hello guys i dont know if it is posted already but , im having problems with my battery life im using my phone for a couple of weeks now. I tried to factory reset my phone but still, i also installed greenify to see if it is because of an app but NO. Basically i find that sometimes the battery peecentage drains so rapidly without me doing anything on the phone with my brightness at 0% and all other stuff like gps, sync etc turned off. Also another big problem is that the battery percentages skips i may be using my phone at 88% but suddenly it goes down to 84% thats really dissapointing.
I have heard people praise about the battery life of this phone which is one of the reason i bought it but now its not what i expected especially with the skips.
If you guys can help me do anything I would really appreciate it.
Thanks
Hello,
please run this App "BetterBatteryStats". Post a screenshot.

Did you do a restore of previous apps or a clean re-install ?

Set GPS on battery saving. Use high accuracy only when required.

I did a clean re install , and i put my location services off since when i noticed the percentage skips and drain
Also i forgot to say that some times when i use the phone for some time say im at 49% then after switching off the screen for some time and coming back later sometimes it says 50 or 51%.

What does GPS say when you go to location.
Regardless of whether its off, ensure it says battery saving and not high accuracy.
Can you post some usage grabs. How much sot/runtime do you get on average, with wifi only, with data only and a mix of the two.
Also i forgot to say that some times when i use the phone for some time say im at 49% then after switching off the screen for some time and coming back later sometimes it says 50 or 51%.

Battery drain extremely quick

Hello everyone,
I have noticed an absurd drop of the battery level when I'm using my device for usual applications such as Facebook, YouTube, etc...
When it's on 20% approx the battery reaches zero level in less than 10 minutes. This problem started when I have updated my device to the last firmware available (14.6.a.1.236)
I have re flashed the firmware 2 times via flashtool and the results are the same.
It could be an software or a hardware issue?
Thank you for your help :fingers-crossed:

Thank you very much!
My device has 13 months of use.
I use greenify in root mode, but don't have xposed.
I have used a calibration battery app and still have this problem.
May I use xposed in stock ROM without the risk of bricking my device?

Chances are it's a hardware issue and replacing your battery could fix it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/son...ttery-reporting-phone-dying-suddenly-t3095120
I had the issue where my battery would drop from >70% to 0% suddenly, and replacing my battery has fixed it completely.
Test disabling "Google Services", "Google Play" and "Get More" in accessibility settings. Also test disabling temporarly the Google Account "Search for threaths on the mobile" feature. I was having quite fast battery drain until I did this. It nearly takes twice as long time for each percent to go down. As for your sudden drop check if you got apps that could interfere. Apps that can modify the battery stats.
Btw I had same sudden drop of 5, 10 and even once 30% when screen was off. I thought it was the battery and it was like that for some months until I uninstalled official Facebook app. Now I dont know if the Facebook app was the reason or only reason but after that it has worked flawless for months and continues to.
I tried everything and the results are the same ?.
I think my battery is damaged. Right now my device is plugged to the charger. After 20 minutes of being connected, my device shows only 7%
