Mines was the same way. Mine even drained when the power was OFF. Some things I noticed is that on wifi, it drains less. When not on wifi, if I have a weak signal, it gets warm and drains like nobody's business (4hrs like yours). Turn off 4G. Turn off bluetooth when not in use. Make sure the gps is not on. Some people say that this doesnt matter because the gps will come on only when needed, but I noticed a difference. Stop some of your programs / apps from running in background, or stop them from booting at start if you dont use them much (do this with ALL IN ONE TOOLBOX on PlayStore). Lastly, let the battery go through a full discharge a couple of times... this is all that I can think of as of now. HTH.

Just my 2 cents, but it seems like my phone heats up more when on stock and cm7, compared to cm10.1. Heat issues and battery drain virtually gone on cm10.1, but a pesky random reboot bug that I can't figure out.
What rom are you running, and are you using a 3rd party battery?

Marshmallow and Bluetooth wakelocks battery drain

Hello... Does anybody had experience of battery drains caused by
Bluetooth?. If I use my smartband the battery of the phone does not last an entire day. Can you help me?

LG G3 Battery Drain - Android OS
Yes! We have two LG G3 phones and very high battery drain with very slow WiFi has been a problem since early March 2016. Android OS is the indicated culprit. Now testing with Bluetooth off and Wi-Fi speed is back to normal.

It is happening to Me to. On stock 30n and Lineage OS 14.1 battery drain on Bluetooth on is massive. Phone can't last a day and SOT is barely 2h. I'm using it whit Mi Band 1 second version.

Heating up

My Acro S is running android 5.1.1. by Paul. The problem is that the phone heats up and the battery drain comes with it. Not when using whatsapp or any other ''light'' app like notes or something, although the battery would need to hold longer using those too but all the problems start when playing a game/youtube/twitch, apps like that. Playing pokemon go my battery drain rate is 1% in 1 minute, pretty much the same with youtube. The back of the phone gets really hot, the screen gets really hot and once it heats up really bad it gets slow and shuts down apps. Should i try to change the battery or what is the problem here?

I know you will blame me, but XPERIA S is ****ing 5 YRS OLD!!! When was your last battery replacement? Shortly after braking Xperia s i got i9300 and i'm happy with my Nexus 5 Replace battery, like i had on mine, and the problem should be resolved. Just use original batteries, dont use extra large batteies, as they lie in actual capacity.

Battery issues

Hey guys , i recently aquired an LG G4 H815 powered by android MARSHMELLOW V20g , the battery drains really fast and i didn't figure out why until i realized that the screen uses up to 68 % of battery power , though i reduce brightness to the minimum , nothing really changes , please help

That is normal. The screen using that much battery is a good sign. The more the better.
On max brightness, the screen uses a fixed amount of energy so if you're using 62% on the screen, it must mean other apps aren't misbehaving.
Tap on the screen and check the screen on time. It should be between 3 hours and 5 hours. If so, everything looks good.

Yes i agree , it's definitely logical , but is there anything i can do to reduce battery draining even a little

Even non root try to disable all non used apps disable sync and gps.
Also shut of data or wifi when not used, Use facebook on the web not the app major batt hog
my g4 normally got me only 2 hours of SOT which is horrible.

It's really frustrating man , and i absolutely deactivated unused apps as well as mobile data , sync and gps , actually everything's off , i made sure of it when i did a hard reset , it's abnormal as a friend of mine has a similar phone , but he hasn't the stupid problem , is there any version i can trust to flash , i have a 6.0 v20g

c'mon guys i'm really out of options

update guys , it's about the phone's battery , when i stopped using the usual charger which was really fast , about 1000 ma according to ampere app , and switched to another slower one , after a few days the battery somehow went to normal , can anybody explain why , was the battery just getting used to the slower charger ?

You should buy a spare battery with it's charger. The G4 battery is not that good even with optimal configuration.

Yeah, well... it's always better to use the manufacturer accessories, in this case the charger. Yeah, we know that Marshmallow uses more battery than Lollipop but the difference is not that obvious if you use the right charger. I've tested and Marshmallow cuts my SOT with roughly 40-50 mins...

That's the real problem , it's when you don't have the original charger , or let's just say you have no idea if the seller would give it to you as the phone was being used , you definitely have to figure out how to pick the appropriate one , any ideas ?

c'mon guys there must be a way to distinguish between a fake and an original charger , for example through monitoring amperage or may be voltage , i just need some clue , anything !

Issues after oreo update.

Hi all,
I am on the latest update pushed for honor 8 pro in india and having a few problems after update.
1. Battery drains fast
2. Standby battery drain (7% in 5 hours)
3.Slow charging
4. Lags while day to day use(reduced the animation to .5 to avoid it)
5.heavy lags while playing PUBG mobile even on low frame rate)
I know some people will suggest me hard resetting my phone and do some tweaks but believe me I have tried all, it still doesn't work.
Is anyone else facing the same same issues as mine ?

I am on latest oreo as well. Only issues I face are standby drain and lags while playing PUBG. Otherwise phone's overall performance is good even battery is awesome. I am attaching screenshot of Screen on time after playing Coc for 2hrs. Check it out. And for charging I don't face any issues, it charges from 3% to 100 in 1hour 50mins approx.

Thanks for reply, but I am getting 4 to 4.5 hours of SOT also observe frame lags here and there in normal uses, I have done all the optimizations that a man possibly could do.
Could it be because honor choose to eliminate heating issue by limiting the CPU and GPU performance in latest updates ?
Don't know how well PUBG was working on android 7 because I recently have started playing it, do you have any idea ?

Thanks a lot, will definately try it.

Man, m totally irritated, when I charge my phone while using it takes me 4 hours to fully charge, even though it says "fast charging" on lock screen.
Shame Honor Shame.

Why are you using it while charging. Mine charges in 1hr 50mins from 3% to 100% but I don't use it while charging. And I never got SOT below 7hrs, even after playing 3hrs of clash of clans game for one charge cycle. For me battery performance is just awesome and overall performance as well. I don't know why you'll are facing issues.
