Phone Battery Drain Issues - Moto 360

I have an HTC One M8. Before I got the 360, I'd end the day with about 50% battery. Now, I'm ending the day with around 10-15%. Has anyone else noticed this severe of a battery drain due to the Moto 360 being connected? How has your battery life been affected?

Yep mines taken a hit too. Turn off the bluetooth and its more tolerable.

Same here. Galaxy s5 Active.
I usually end the day with around 20% battery. Picked up the Moto 360 yesterday and have been using it exclusively. Haven't even taken the phone out of my pocket and I'm at 8% by noon.

I had this too. I found out that it was the Android app for me. There's a wakelock called hostwithrpccallback. It had over 5000 wakelocks. I just unbounced it with a xposed mod and everything went to normal. Everything working fine too.

This usually happens when there are a lot of other bluetooth devices in the area. Makes the connection not as reliable. i.e. slightly longer scan times.

I'm having significant battery drain on both my OnePlus One and the Moto 360 when connected. It has not always been like this and seems to have started for me after the most recent software update on the Moto 360, which was said to improve battery life. Both devices now drain so quickly that I have been forced to stop using the watch.

What exactly did you do to limit this wakelock?

One X battery fix?

Okay so I presume all of you one X power users have noticed a the horrible battery performance. I only got my one x yesterday and I'm already frustrated with the fact that i yet again have to carry my charger around with me. Is there a fix? I have root and custom recovery. So if there is a fix for this please someone let me know.m
Since I flashed the Revolution HD I got excellent battery performance. Without doing too much stuff (just calling and texting), battery remains > 50% at the end of the day. I would really recommend that rom.
I've just flashed it, going to see how it goes. But I would've expected HTC to bang a beast of a battery for the beast of a processor and massive screen its gotta run. Oh well, still early days, hopefully we'll see massive software improvements.

I'm getting 6-7 on a full charge at the moment, but that's down to me being a power user.

And also you just got the phone yesterday. Batteries take about 10 charge cycles to reach full potential.

Not really, no. Personally I did not unlock device, neither root it, neither installed any fix. And I must say that I'm more happy with battery life than I was with my previous phone SGS2. More then 16 hours here with 4 accounts synchronization on, 3g/wifi on, and sometimes gps + music on (for Endomondo). I'm really happy with my One X.
ARHD Rom, auto-brightness, plain wallpaper, no haptic feedback, no roaming, managing syncing, and a few other tweaks will leave this devices battery life as one of the best.

Yep. Relax. I got 6 hours from first charge, 10 hours from second charge, 12 hours from third charge...
After over two weeks I'm now getting between 18 and 24 hours. Give it a couple of weeks before judging battery life.

I try to use as much as I can the first few days, and time it so that you have about 10-30% charge left when you reach home from work/school and then I let it charge overnight.
I know quite a lot of time was spent idle, but 60% after 7 and a half hours isn't too bad http://twitter.com/Dev_Meltus/status/194082996767309825/photo/1/large
I've not really had a problem with battery life so far.

how did u use it on those 7 hours? idling?
Have been seriously contemplating getting the One X.
My first choice had been the Galaxy S3..... but the One X seems the better choice.... I have had the iPhone 4 for almost 2 years, so now it's almost upgrade time If the Galaxy S3 had no physical home button I would be taking it.
Had been worried about the battery life of the one x but after reading these and a few others it seems worth it and it's available in black (dark grey but darker than S3 metallic blue)
I Just hope I don't have issues with app incompatibility for the apps I use on iPhone.
With normal usgae, I've got more than 10 hours after one charge. Not so happy with it but it's good enough for me.

have you got yourself the One X? if so, how is it compared with your previous phone?
i also want to swap my iphone 4 with One X and looking for different experiences especially with the battery life
I've turned everything off and left my phone on idle, my battery issue has persisted for over 6 months now (I bought it in Singapore on release day). With screen on min brightness, static wallpaper, most apps off, my battery drains fully within 6 hours. If I actually do anything with it like make phonecalls, it drains in hours. The battery phone is constantly hot, when on charge It's almost too hot to hold. If while on charge (AC) I use it to make a call, it complains that it's not receiving enough power. Should I look to get a replacement from HTC? I'm still using stock rom so it should be covered under warranty?
Sounds like the htc amaze battery overheat..
Also get gsam battery app.. it will tell you what apps are using what % of battery.
I also use advanced task manager from play store.. it proved to me how much gmaps Facebook and other bloat was ALWAYS RUNNING!.. I got root and froze it all with big improvements
Some of us who htc amaze w no warranty bought a new battery and that fixed it
e-Sex.. All of the carpral none of the tunnel

Aside from your time travel/exaggeration, I suggest better battery stats, finding out what is causing wake lock, and killing.it.
Your phone is fine, but you have some crapware on it.

[Q] horrible battery problem on ONE X

I know there are loads of threads about the HTC ONE X battery but I really could not find a proper answer to my question so im starting a new thread. So I have had my 1X since last thursday, just over a week now and the battery life has been utterly horrible. But the worst thing is that the battery life is getting drastically shorter and shorter every day. Now its unbearable I cant even use the phone. I wonder if it might be because I did not do any 'first time battery charge'?. I just booted the phone instantly instead because honestly I did not know that you had to charge the battery before booting the phone the first time. The first time I started the phone it had just over 40% of battery and I used it until the phone shut off and charged it 100% after that while it was updating to the newest software. Is this perhaps the reason why the battery life is so god damn horrible and even worse than other 1X's?. When I charge the phone 100% it drains 1% of battery or more every minute now just when browsing the menu or the web or just doing nothing but putting the screen on. The screen brightness setting is on automatic and I have tried all kinds of battery savers and now im using juice defender ultimate still the battery life is horrible. I kill and close apps all the time and have nothing running in the background when not using it and I always turn off wifi when not using and I turn off auto sync and all the other battery eating tasks and stuff. Still I cant use the phone. When its 100% charged at about 8:00 in the morning the battery is done for at around 10:30 with moderate use. I cant get more than about 3 hours of on screen time before the battery is finished so basically what should I do? Is this normal?

And if you'd have read the other threads that you said don't apply to you you'd realize that because your phone is still new battery life will improve with more charging cycles. If you expect more than 3 hours on the low-end or five on the absolute high-end of screen on time the One X isn't for you. Because of the non-replaceable battery (which shouldn't be a surprise) a lot of us have auxiliary battery chargers for getting through the day when the phone can't be topped up on AC power. Speaking for myself, the design of the phone is what attracted me to it and the non-replaceable battery is a trade-off I accepted. That might not be a trade-off everyone’s willing to accept and the One X isn't going to win any battery life awards.
Autobrightness seemed to cause my battery to drain. Turned it off and its much better (or seems that way for now)

Charging your battery when you first get it does absolutely nothing. Wiping battery stats and callibrating also do absolutely nothing.

Upload few screens of your battery usage so we can see what is causing such drain. I can tell you already now the screen is the main battery drain. A phone can barely survive 4 hours of heavy usage, especially not on automatic brightness.

Yeah ill do that, how do I take a screen shot? Powerbutton + homebutton thing doesn't seem to work for me :S. Today for example iv'e charged the phone 3 times and after the 2nd charge I used to phone for 5 hours and 25m until only a few % of the battery was left. I had juice defender ultimate up and running most of the time and screen time was at around a bit over 2 and a half hours. All I did was some web browsing and mostly menu browsing and setting browsing on the phone and some xda developer browsing with the app. No gaming whatsoever. Really horrible battery... such a pity considering how much I love the phone otherwise. Its no problem when im at home connecting it to the computer with the usb cable all the time but when im actually using the phone outdoors its frustrating as sh*t.
It doesn't really matter what you are doing, you will only get around three hours of screen on time.

Have you tried easy battery saver, started using it on my HOX over 30HRS ago browsing, video calls and still have 33% life left. If it doesn't work I suggest you return for a replacement. Could be factory defect.

Yeah, that was the first one I used, it didn't really help but juicedefender on the other hand helps me squeeze out a bit more battery life

Sounds like a lemon, have it replaced asap. HOX is the only android device I had that gets me through the day w/o charging doing basic stuffs (data always on etc) like what normal people do. I've had sleepless nights last month because my 2-week old GN got pick pocketed battery life for GN in my case was horrible (5 hours).
how do you know if your battery is defective? i'm getting around the same battery life myself :/
This is why unreplaceble batteries suck. I wish I'd bought the s3 instead still though I love the HOX only if the battery was a bit better ffs. Im getting a little bit better battery today but with loads of tweaks, still some 'untweaked' hoxes get better battery lives, still though it seems like there are loads of one x's that have the same issue as I do. Does this mean all one x are different or what?

Battery drain -

I am still experiencing high battery drain issues. I am using Badass Battery Stats, and I am seeing high battery use from App Usage (30%), with System (com.htc.launcher) taking 16%.
Is this normal, are you guys seeing similar results? What is your Launcher usage?
I am at 65% after 10 mins of screen usage and 3 hrs of standby.
For comparison, my phone lasted like 35 hrs yesterday/the day before, with ~2 hrs of screen usage.

your best bet is to use BetterBatteryStats and that will give you a more detailed explanation in what is draining your battery when screen is off. Launcher should not really eat that much battery it is normally the screen. so if i was you i would remove that app for one charge cycle and try bbs which you can get from a thread here on xda and found out from that what is eating your battery my friend

*#*#3424#*#* -> More -> Battery Test and if it's faulty ask for a return/exchange. I got around 87% +/- 1 after1 hour of the test.
I actually swapped my unit once already, the last one had drain issues as well. I wonder if it's something on my software end.
BetterBatteryStats couldn't find anything unusual on my last device, but I will try it on this guy as well.
Will try the battery test as well, thank you.
I have a ton of contacts (1k+) that got imported from my Gmail. I wonder if the device is trying to sync those, which causes some of the battery issues - since the included "Contacts" package is indicated in the screenshot I attached.
I turned off auto-sync for contacts, will see if that helps at all.
solution...

Get Slim ICS installed. I've tried almost every ROM out there for the HOX, and this is by far the best battery consumption I've ever had!
A new ROM is a solution, but was hoping I could get stock working fine first... :/
Do you guys have any suggestions on how to diagnose what could be causing that htc.com.launcher is taking so much battery? I'm up to 25% now.
Is it me or are people using Badass Battery experiencing bad results for battery?
Well let me tell you when I use it I get worse battery. It tells you what is using your battery, but when I decide to disable some of the things it picks up on. I get worse battery life. Also the app itself drains a lot of battery.
I am not an expert, but some the items disabled are integral to the system. And the system trys to enable these apps, but can't. It's like batteries playing hide and seek with the apps and running out of breath.
I got my ram usage down to 490 mb ish with all apps killed, but I had the worst battery life ever. It was draining fast even with the phone in sleep, and I had random apps I disabled starting (Flickr and PDF viewer).
My advice is trial and error. Use the task manager as apposed to these battery heavy apps, and if you find a place where you are getting awesome battery results, stop tinkering!
Edit: a bit enthusiastic in the Ram department.

There's a new battery monitor just come out for free on the play store called carat.
This app's meant to tell you which apps are using your battery and compares it to other phones.
It has to monitor your device for a week before it can give you the results but if it works properly it will be worth it.
have you found a solution? I have the same issue and don't know how to fix
I'm a new user of one x and the battery drain is appalling....i charged it full and was just playing around customizing the phone/settings and i could see it was draining one percent every one to two minutes!
I'm coming from sgs2 although it wasn't great but wasn't as bad as this!
Also, following my customisation etc i changed the sim card and all my customized settings such as wallpaper etc reset back to default!

I, for once was having the same problem..but after one week or two, the battery seems quite stable, and after I played among those beautiful ROMs, I can get the most out of my battery..thank God, I hope you will have the same experience..
Maybe if you wanna stay stock, start to analyze what 'culprit' that actually drained your battery..try using the search bar and use different search terms such as 'battery saving guide' bla bla bla..there are several thread have discussed the same issue..
I am on stock Rom and this is the first full charge after a factory reset although the phone is not brand new but a few months old...

Try disabling Location & Google Search (Settings -> Location). Noticed that Google services drained 65% of my battery, and heated up the phone. And it only happens when I turn on wifi and update the weather widget, which uses network location service. The drain won't stop until I restarted. Under the services, there's a network location service. So I tried disabling the said setting. Not sure if it will work for you, but it won't harm if you try.

Moto 360 Battery Drain Latest Firmware

I have the newest fireware from last week on my moto 360. After I got the update battery was 2% to 3% an hour drain. Coming from 5%. Ambient off and screen either on auto or 4 brightness. Yesterday and today my battery life is now 8% to 10%. Nothing changed. Same watch face. Using Facer app for watch faces. My watch will drain 2% 15mins or so. Ill look at it and it will show 88% then 15 mins later Ill watch it jump down 2%. Not 1% but always 2%. I have reset the moto 360 and uninstalled facer and reinstalled it. Nothing same battery life. How come after the firmware the battery life was awesome then all of sudden 5, 6 days later im seeing this battery drain? Even if I use the stock watch faces it still drains way to fast. I have every thing off. Crap even after the update I used ambient for two days and still lasted from 7am to 10pm with juice to spare. Now I cant even get 7am to 10 pm with out a charge. What could be going on?
You tried resetting the 360. Now try restarting your phone. Remember, these two devices are tethered together via Bluetooth, so phone issues can affect the 360's battery life as well. I'm not saying that's positively the culprit, but with no other changes to the watch, there's not much else, other than a defective battery. (Assuming there's not another change you haven't seen, such as an updated wear-compatible app.)

Yeah I have done that. I just changed watch faces on the facer app to see if the watch face was causing the issue. Ill know in a few.
I think there's an app that bugs and uses battery, I noticed bad battery life and I reset and got over 2x more.
Try reset and not installing apps :good:

Not even facer?
I've noticed this myself. And like you, I've reset my 360, switched to minimal watch face, restarted my phone and even deleted the data for my google now app on my phone. Not sure what's causing it. Latest firmware and everything.
Mine just started recently.... i think mine might be related to the update of the wear app on my phone... it updated and did a force reboot of my moto 360. after that my watch started crashing processes and getting stuck... for a while, i couldn't even factory reset.... battery fell like a rock.... very odd.
Removed all 3rd party apps from phone, factory reset watch, and still battery drain is crazy. what used to last all day with 30% left over when i get home is now chewing up 50% in just 5 hours.... something is very wrong with the latest wear app i think....
Very interesting, I have had better life after the update...BUT one or two apps are acting a but funky on the phone...

losing 30% -40% battery overnight?

I was just wondering what is the normal battery drain amount, I can barely seem to get a day out of the battery... Last night I put it in airplane mode and theatre mode and it made no difference in battery, it went about 30% over 8 hours. During the day it's ever worse. I get anywhere from 7 to 15% battery drainage per hour. Somedays I can barely make it the entire day. Do I have a defective unit? what are you guys getting in terms of battery use in your watches. I have the latest android 6.0.1 and android wear 1.5.0.3044569 Build number M1D63G.
I purchased the watch about a week ago.
Battery drain pretty random in my case... my watch is also on M1D63G... awful update, hoping for a quick fix but I don't think it will come quickly.
No fix for maybe one year, so..........

To be honest I'm waiting for Sony IFA 2016 which will be on Thursday and I really really REALLY hope they will introduce Sony Smartwatch 4 along with Xperia X Compact so I will be able to throw my hard-earned money right at their faces to buy this stuff
Not certain that Sony like Android Wear ?
I have noticed same thing with my SW3 and i think that is caused by watchface - in my case - watchmaker premium - i have been created my own watchfaces - nixie and flipclock from scratch - and mine SW3 also last about one day per charging. Try to change watchface to stock sony watchface and compare battery drain then - and ofc - let us know if that was the case.
I have a feeling Watchmaker watch faces tend to cause drain, not sure though since it seems a bit random.
I changed my watch face to stock one and the battery is at least somewhat better and lasts day & night.

I use watchmaker and Pujie black and the battery does indeed die faster when I'm on watchmaker. On Pujie I can go up to 1.5 days on a single charge with brightness on auto , gestures and all radios on. Might be a rogue app causing too much drain...maybe revert to stock then install an app a day to see what might be causing the drain?
I have 2 phones, and when I just use the watch not connected to the phone, I get a couple days of life, and the screen does not randomly turn on. I think the android wear app on the phone is causing the problems?
