Did you perform a factory reset after the upgrade? If not, backup and try that first as I have no issues with battery life on Lollipop. Also, make sure the apps you use are up-to-date as it might be one of them not playing nice with 5.0 yet...

same issue here...im stock and unrooted. I dont think greenify can do much. Phone heats up more than before and thus causes more battery drainage... i guess unless we roor the phone, we are stuck with this, or unless there is a software update from htc to fix the issue

I'm with EddyOS on the factory reset. I'd do that, but probably through hboot. I'm running lollipop slightly overclocked with a fairly aggressive custom kernel and I'm not dealing with any heat or undue battery drain. Battery life is actually better than kitkat. I'm running a radically debloated ROM, too, but even on a simply rooted stock ROM with a stock kernel I didn't have such issues.

Thanks for all. Now my HTC One_M8 battery working for automatically after 3 days of update.

I can tell you that it's down to apps and cpu.... I took update from 4.4.3 to 4.4.4 ... consumption was massively increased (15-20 mins lost around 10% battery power) ....later ran tr/towelroot/sunshine apps and if I left them running longer I'd have had a new room heater
Turn off after an update, see if that clears it up first, if it continues then do a factory reset

I've had a similar problem since I got the lollipop update, my battery seems to die at somewhere between 20 and 15% and the phone will turn off. Sometimes it will come back on sometimes it won't. I thought a factory reset would do the job so I ended up flashing AR HD (a factory reset was a good enough reason to move away from stock) and its happened again. Anyone any uses what could be causing it?

[Q] Rom/Kernel issue OR Battery?

Hi all
After sitting with my stock SGS4 (i9505) for a few months I decided to root (as i had my N7000 and HTC Desire).
About the same time as this my phone began turning off seemingly randomly. At first i thought this may be a ROM/Kernel issue but I have tried a couple including Stock(rooted), Carbon and the GooglePlay Rom. The same thing happens for all of them.
Once off, the phone boots to splash screen then turns off. This cycles. I remove the battery and the phone will turn on, sometimes showing a SIGNIFICANT apparent drop in battery (90% reduces to 3% during this single on/off cycle). A quick charge and restart will often cause the rebooted phone to read the battery at 90% again.
The battery does appear slightly swollen and i'm curious if anyone could shed any light on:
1) does this seem a battery / firmware issue and
2) any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!
Currently: GooglePlay Rom 4.2.2 PhilZTouch Recovery
Regards
Warnoceros
If you're saying the battery is "swollen" it probably is a battery issue IMO. Especially if you're having problems on every ROM you've tried.
Have you tried going back to stock to see if it's still happening?
Hi
Thanks for replying. I'm downloading stock now so will report in the morning.

Hi,
So, went back to stock (binary counter has moved up unfortunately - didnt read into that before hand). Was still rebooting. Have replaced battery and this seems to have done the trick for the time being. I noticed that the unit did not reset until my google accout restored apps to the phone so there is still a chance it was a bad app i suppose.
Most likely the battery though
Thanks

Well try to wipe all data.
On the stock 4.3 i`m averaging 4h30m display time with 18h of up-time and 15% battery left.
I have: H+ on all the time, WIFI on all the time and location based on WiFi, auto-brightness on max level, Sync on.
Some app may be draining your battery or the battery may be close to it's death.
I tried wiping and factory reset, then I am not only on plain vanilla stock rom and whatsapp and chrome that's all.. I am having problems even with my zero lemon 9300mah Battery that is draining too fast I used to get 3-4 days easily but now it does last even one day.. Also my h+ disconnects and takes time to connect once I switch on the screen.. Any suggestions as to what can be done is it that the Handset motherboard might have messed up?

: Go to settings> data usage> press the menu button of your phone and tick the restrict background data. That's it! You will have a triangle notice on your notification bar but your problem will be solved. I hope it works for you too. If it does not work completely to your satisafaction also disable the great battery drainer Google+. It is usually the main reason for the drain among others.

[Q] Severe battery drain after flashing/rebooting?

Hey guys, figured I'd see if anyone else has had this happen to them or if there's a fix or really. Is something wrong with my phone...
Flashed PA at about 85-90%. Left my phone alone for awhile and decided to flash DH's GPE. After flashing, running aroma installer and such, when I booted back up, I noticed my battery drained significantly. It drained all the way to about 45%. From at least 85% to 45% in one flash and reboot. Obviously this isn't normal. Is this common for these phones to have such a severe drop in battery? Is it a hardware issue or ROM issue?
I installed Xposed, ran GravityBox and changed some features that required a reboot. Rebooted and battery only dropped about 1%.
Any ideas?

usually takes 3 or 4 charging cycles for you to get a true idea of battery consumption.
I wouldn't pay too much attention to what it was showing straight after you flashed....

[Q] Battery draining so fast when using mobile internet

I'm using PureKat ROM for my Desire Z, and recently I've noticed that the battery drains so fast when I'm on career's 3G network (WiFi doesn't have this problem). I suspect on Google Play Services and I've disabled to auto-start, wake up and keep awake the phone and most of it's unnecessary services using this tutorial but it doesn't help. I've attached battery usage statistics after charging (all is normal there as you can see). Also I want to mention that 3G is mostly off (especially when it charges) so battery lasts as long as it is disabled (it can last for several days without 3G I think), and charging is really fast!
Has anyone had this problem?
Just to be on the safe side, check to see if this also happens on a stock ROM. I remember my old G2 did something like this. Can't check it anymore because my son killed it when I left him use it.

Thanks for the suggestion! Which exactly stock ROM version to use? And if I do that, it will disable root and restore to S-ON, right?
I thought that the problem was with battery, but when I replaced and tested it again, it still acts the same :/
Can anyone help me?
I think that is normal because my desire z give me only 3 hours on 3g and about 6.5 hours on WiFi and now using htc one it also have quit same battery timing like that !

I think that I've solved it with SetCPU profiles. Battery life is noticeably better now.

Huge Battery Issue

Hello, I bought my HTC 10 yesterday. As soon as I got it I unlocked bootloader and rooted the device. I flashed Viper ROM.
The issue is, my battery is draining at 1% every minute...
Anyone got a solution? I'm using Areoplane mode+Wifi at home. I have locations off and sync off ect.
Should I return this phone?
Don't return phone, figure out what is causing the drain. It is probably an app.

I'd say it's either a rogue app, or a Wi-Fi issue (as you have airplane mode activated.)
Have a look through the thread link below, and make sure it's not the wifi issue causing your battery drain.

Thank you. It seems the WIFI must be the problem, sadly most of that thread goes over my head. I will try and figure it out thanks for the help.
You should always run stock for a few days after getting a phone so you can see if it's a phone issue, a rom issue, or user issue. If you start installing roms the second you get the phone, it'll be extremely hard to find out if something was working right to begin with.
Perhaps flashing back stock will help narrow down the issue. If that doesn't work, factory resetting without app restore will narrow it down some more.
I do not have any issues with Wi-Fi draining on stock vzw.
