Does anyone know why the android wear app always has to be running in the background even while Bluetooth is off and the watch is disconnected? Seems like a waste of battery life and performance when the watch is not even in use...
Greenify also has no effect on it for some reason...

because its a service? i don't think the connectivity state is dependent on the app's performance. the app is waiting for a connection or an opportunity to connect anyway.
I'm seen a lot of battery usage from Android System, even more than the screen usage (44%). I can't figure out what is is, does anyone have any suggestions?
same here, my phone drops 20% overnight/7 hours or so.
searched for a lot of solutions online, nothing works.
android os/google play services/ etc seems to be the reason.
im using gsam 60% over 12 h with 2.30 h SOT. LTE + wifi mixed usage.
im thinking of converting to GPE lollipop. If anyone has a solution please help.
Are you using custom ROM? Perhaps, the problem is in a custom ROM.
1st step, please post some screenshots of your battery life in your settings > power
2nd step, go to play store and download gsam and use your phone for a day or two after which post some screenshots of gsam.
3rd step, please indicate what ROM and kernel you're running (assuming you've)
4th step, I believe someone here will be more than willing to help you if you ask nicely

Have you tried a factory reset? Or maybe post screenshots from your battery app thats in settings?
Your wakelocks seems to be quite high as well as your wakelocks are what I would have gotten after 30hrs or so standby with 5~6hrs of SOT
I also did a full reset. Cache clear and battery calibration....im always on lte at work and on wifi at home...sometimes overnight i only drop 2%. Last night droped 20%.

Have you turned off location services and stuff? They could be the cause of your battery drain...
Everything is off. Rooted last night...uninstalled facebook zoe and polaris.
Only 2% drain overnight 6hours...seems ok...im gonna keep and eye on it...with wakelock detector.
Thx

Facebook and its apps are huge battery drainer. Guess that explains why your battery had such a big drop
Dont know. I never used it..dont have an account

I don't think root helped you
The factory reset when you unlocked your bootloader must have helped you! There's a root companion app for gsam, download it and enable root access, will help with the stats.
Flashed gpe 5.0.1.

Seems to me that you have something eating up your battery overnight... I'm not very sure whether its a rogue app or maybe mediascanner (if you have too much stuff on your internal storage)
I have VERY similar drain to what you had on the Sense ROM.
I am on GPE 5.0.1 atm. And it is what I put the phone on since I got it (got it used btw, but in good condition).
I unplugged around 9am, checked back at 12pm and it was 96% or so. Not very happy with that, shouldn't it be less?
I had 35% with 2.5Hrs SOT and that was around 8 hours later, NOT impressed at all!
Anyhow, I'm gonna wipe dalvik and regular cache and post a full (or close to) drain in gsam, will use it normally (like I would!)
I hope this thread isn't dead yet
P.S.: I had location on, it is now off (made no difference at ALL!).
I have BT On (but I've seen other ppl's drain, it's almost negligible because it's 4.0 LE and sync'd to Moto 360).
I have FB Messenger installed, WeChat, Hangouts and that's it for chat apps.
EDIT:
M8 wouldn't boot after updating SuperSU binary through the app and into recovery mode automatically (never again, I should ALWAYS just do it myself *sigh*).
Anyway, factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik and loading GPE again through RUU.
Flashed Hypernova kernel as well.
I've been getting about 6 hours out of my LG but recently I've been getting about two {using only social apps bit of you tube etc. } how do you know what is draining battery phone is also heating up a good bit

It's mostly likely a wakelock. One of your apps maybe causing your phone to stay awake. Many apps on the play store just search the word.
Don't know if LG has it but you can also enable developer mode and check process stats to see which apps are running but less detailed than above

I've used a number of aosp ROMs and I've finally found one which I like (AICP) but I have some crazy wakelocks. BBS shows them as *alarm* partial wakelocks and they come from different apps. See screenshot. Whatsapp. Clock. OTA. Calender. Storage. But they all have the exact same wakelock time and show up under *alarm* I've tried a clean flash twice. I've tried the built on wakeblocker. But to no avail. Any help would be great

I've just tried flashing Candy5 and I'm getting the same wakelock issue.

Try using Greenify to hibernate the apps when the screen is off and when you're not using them?
I'm also having this problem and really wonders what that actually is, often exact same time on many different apps and always just one *alarm* that keeps going for a loooong time.
Did you ever find the solution to this problem? I'm having this issue on my D850 with pretty much every CM based ROM. CyanideL, Blisspop, Euphoria. Currently using CyanideL.
This is what it looks like:

It's happening even if the apps are Greenified.
Was struggling with battery life on my moto360 went into my battery stats on andriod wear app and saw motoconnect using 5% of battery. I know it's not much but I have deleted the motoconnect app but do not understand why it is still being shown with battery usage.

it access the watch for location, so that we can track till where the watch was connected with the phone (in case we miss it)
Makes since thanks for the response thought it was something within the motoconnect app that I earlier download from app store that didn't fully uninstall correctly.
