Hey everyone, I'm experiencing some pretty bad battery drain. I've had my phone off the charger for an hour and its already down to 75% and I've barely used it. I checked my battery usage and Google Services are taking up 75% of my usage. Is this normal and if not is there a fix that anyone knows of?

I would start with going over to android central and the HTC one forums, they have a sticky post about battery life here http://forums.androidcentral.com/htc-one/269518-htc-one-battery-life-stats-discussion.html
Looks like you should turn off your GPS and location, and turn off your sync. Download the gsam battery monitor. It will help you out too.
Thank youuuu

Not sure if you're rooted or not. But try installing this.

So for some odd reason in getting HORRIBLE battery drain. Literally lost 40% in 35minutes. It happened out of nowhere and idk what to do. I disabled GPS, deleted all the apps that I recently downloaded. It's still happening and was wondering if anyone else is suffering from this.

I get this, i'm still trying to see what's causing it but i've found 2 things:
- It stops when i'm not connected to wifi
- Its a known kitkat bug
Hope somebody can tell me what os process is calling this process but you'll get a lot of discussions if you google sensors.qcom drain.

Yeah I did Google and did see quite a few discussions on it. I have been through many phones and this is the first one that has a major flaw in regards to wake lock. I reduced the wake locks by disabling Google Now but I use that daily and can't love without it. I don't know what to do at this point.

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%.

Seems alright to me now but guess there could be a rogue app that's sucking your phone battery...
Something is draining the battery...and its a random drain...sometimes 2% over 8h and sometimes 20%.

Have you turned off location services and stuff? They could be the cause of your battery drain...

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

Hello xda,
Some problems with my LG g3, more specificity battery issues that hopefully your can help me out with.
So first of all, I've frozen some bloatware however some of them appear in root task manager (accessibility, LG smart cover, ect) why is this?
Second, my android OS is at constant 40-50 percent in battery settings, how can I find it what's causing this?
Thanks in advance.
Anyone?
Is your device running kitkat or lollipop? Android OS has been the main cause of my battery usage since I updated my G3 to lollipop.
