I haven't done anything special. That's the battery life I have gotten since rooting it. I have since disabled some Verizon bloatware but that's it

Root shouldn't impact battery, it's what you do afterwards. I do it know what my battery life was like before rooting it because I rooted it the day I got it

I use greenify with xposed to stop excessive wakelocks. I also don't use location tracking and I wasen't playing any games. Other than that, its really about how you use your phone, I use it for bluetooth streaming in my car and it still gets good usage as seen above. It took me a while to get it back to 5+ hours SOT because I had random processes draining my battery.

I've only had my phone for about 24 hours, but after rooting and installing Greenify, I'm getting very good battery life. Biggest trick is finding all the apps that are triggering wakelocks (Usually LG/Carrier bloatware). In my case, it was the T-Mobile apps that kept waking my phone up. With my screen off, there is little drain. Obviously, with the screen on, it is the biggest drainer. After a few charges/discharges I will post my battery stats

Are you saying HIT (like a dent) or did you mean HOT???
my D855 and D858 got massive battery drain from Android 5.0 update and got HOT for no reason, and i downgraded back to 4.4 and everything is better, but it still get hot when using it for a while, probably from the screen.

oxygem os 3.2.1 insane wake locks

Been using this phone for over a month now and always has bad battery life as compared to what others are getting.. about 4 hours sot with over 20 hours on battery and it used to reach 10% battery level ?.. yeah it's bad... So I unlocked, rooted and installed greenify and amplify and amplify showed the cause... Take a look at this.. so the only way to fix this is to flash a custom stock based ROM right ?
I'm worried about that rijl wake lock.. radio issues ? I always keep my phone on 2g to get even batter battery life but sad situation for me here folks
thinking 4-5 is bad because you got 10 once. Hm...
I don't think anyone has been able to get 10 hours screen on time on a single charge on any phone.......

Sure! Easy, just depends on what you do...
Just remove all the Google Apps, especially Google Now. It's wakelocking the phone like crazy, because it's recording your location for example.

oh man i am so sorry the way i framed my sentence.. i meant 10% battery life lol my apologies. and when i mean others, they usually get 5h sot or more
RILJ is caused by Google Play Services, not by OP3 itself.
Get rid off GApps or just deal with it.

Can someone help me with my battery life...?

I am using a stock firmware (3.2.8) not rooted, bootloader unlocked, i get max of 3 hrs 50 mins of SOT.
have replaced the battery from an authorized service center. nothing helps.
my usage: -
mostly single sim activated.
always connected to 3g or 4g or on wifi
3 mail accounts synced (only for mails, contacts, and other stuff are unchecked)
GPS off, only when needed
not many apps installed
a bit of game (max 30 mins)
if its normal kindly let me know, coz m really confused how come people are able to achieve 6hrs of SOT.
Depends usage, franco kernal and ghost pepper cpu tweak made a good diffrence for me.

Some app is probably keeping you in wakelock, go check that.

Search for a wakelock detector on Play Store.

If your bootloader unlocked why not root? If you really want the best battery life then like I do I'd suggest stock based rom, root and xposed then install greenify and amplify.. both of those will control apps and wakelocks to reduce battery use and I always have positive results from that combination.
Edit - I get 5-6 hours sot

Moto G5 battery life

The Moto G5's battery is absolutely dog s*** can't believe that people are getting over a day with this phone. When the phone's screen is off that's when it great. When it's on it's crap!! Help?
Could you share your screen on time? I am still satisfied with battery performance of my moto g5, even though the battery is not large enough and the chipset really consume a lot of power,

Don't know what you're doing but I use my phone non stop all day and right now after I unplugged it at 7am this morning I still have 66% left at 4pm
Obviously if you are playing high demanding games it will drain quicker but Iv been using wifi and apps all day no problems

Actually, the battery is quite good. Even with stock ROM. Even with .15 ROM (that's what I have right now).
But I have disabled Moto Display and few other things, perhaps this helps a bit.
You should try to find out what eats your battery. In worst case, try Factory Reset.

Unknown as you have pulled the stats just after unplugging the phone from power
Don't know if any one noticed but the moto g5 kernel has performance as the default scheduler. Not really the best for battery life at all.

is this version BAD? Battery issue!

Please help me. This is my second day using this phone. I only have less than 7 apps installed. I saw some users having 10+hrs SOT.
