Standby Signal battery drain. Lollipop - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. I'm a long time Cloudy rom user since G2. but with the lollipop ROM of G3 I notice huge battery drain in standby mode. (during sleep) Location settings off. Wifi all night on. Problem is with Radio Signal. (I get poor reception to my room. but G2 was able to withstand all night with only 1% battery drain, but G3 drains 20% just for a night. I have attached screenshots of my battery usage only in one night. Gsam battery monitor. Please if anyone is aware about my issue let me know. Thank you

Haha i see you are from srilanka as well .. well tbh buddy i pretty much had the same issue. i live ln pepiliyana & for some ****ed up reason my room has very bad signal reception. i always wake up to a half dead battery . it seems like g3 struggles alot internally to keep the radio signals stable than the g2. you could even say g2 has better radio strength than the g3 . on top of that when im at college in kolpiti i get a full day of battery -_- ..
*** small thing i noticed though... after installing a good asop rom and doing the thermal mod my phone stays a little better compared to cloudy 2.5 ( thats just my idea though) :silly::silly::silly::silly::silly::silly::silly:

Try fulmics or NovaStock 5.5 rom. NovaStock 5.5 ve awesome battery life give it a try.

[Q] G2 Battery Life Issue

For the past couple of weeks ive been having issues with the battery life on my G2. I used to get 12+ hours of battery life on it but now im only getting about 7 or 8. Ive tried recalibrating the battery, clearing the dalvik cache, and changing settings on certain apps but that hasnt seemed to make a difference. Ive noticed that at the end of the day, the android system takes up a huge chunk of my battery. Any ideas?

I've had the same issues as the builds of CM have gotten higher in numbers. The ROM that's given me the longest life is the stoock Gingerbread rooted ROM. I switched back to CM because oof the Text MMS & them always being Slideshow issues as well as no ability to stoop the phone from vibrating when I'm on a call. Same issue with CM too actually.
I'm bumping this because I feel your pain.
you can fix that in call settings you know!
Are you running CM7? If you are, open up spare parts and look at the battery information under Partial Wake. See if there's something tying up the system.
There are a few things listed but I dont think its anything that would eat a whole lot of battery. Should I be looking for something in specific?
Anything that's more than a sliver is eating the battery and keeping your phone from sleeping.
I'm getting 24 plus hours on glite which is aosp also. Maybe the battery is finally giving up the ghost. They do have a finite amount if charge cycles. If nothing else has changed and all things being equal to your 12 hour charge cycles maybe you could try a different battery.

I brought my phone into sprint because the back of the phone was super hot and found out that some of the stock battle do heat up so they replacse it for me and no problems since. I now have an extended Matt and have no problems at all stays nice and cool, i'll try to post a screen shot of the Matt I'm using .

A lot of people have reported this - usually rebooting and keeping it out of the sun (that REALLY heats it up!) will help keep it cool. I've also found that turning off the 3G/4G radios when I'm not using it helps - but that's just my personal experience.
THe sun heats it up a lot. I have seen that/. Sometimes when I reboot the battery jumps down about 15-20% at times. so prefer not to reboot
hot batt
Agreed. When I turn off 3G, it tends to help a lot. Also, keeping it out of the sun.
Well, The problem finished after i flashed a custom rom. Now it never goes above 36 degrees.
The mods can close this thread now.
Thanx

[Q] System_server: Excessive CPU usage & battery drain

Hey guys,
I've really liked this phone - until a few weeks ago.
I had the fated sudden decline in battery life. BetterBatteryStats has been on my phone for a while, so I opened it up and checked what usually kills battery on Android: the wakelocks.
It seemed totally normal!
Then, I checked processes. (These are today's stats, still just as bad)

system_server?
I noticed my phone was getting warmer whenever I was actively using it right under the camera, I guess which is where the SoC is. It's also been getting noticeably laggier.
Also today, under the battery usage in the settings:
Android OS and Android System are using twice as much battery as the screen.
This is pissing me the hell off. My phone drains perfectly acceptable battery when it's asleep, but take it out to use it and suddenly it's draining over 20% an hour. The extremely vague and obscure nature of the process doesn't help either. What does system_server even do?
I'm running Tweaked, and I've been alternating between ColonelX and Lean with no difference in battery.
I've also dirty flashed (really don't want to factory reset) to the NF4 Tweaked 3.5 beta. Only difference here is less lag.
As for bootloader, radio, and all that stuff, it's NF4 as well.
Nearly all Samsung bloatware is frozen in Titanium Backup, and all other troublesome apps have been greenified.
Attached is a log from BetterBatteryStats.
Thanks in advance for your help!
(I'm typing this on my phone, and battery had drained over 10% since I started writing this post.)
I had exactly the same issue since I upgraded my note 3 to Lollipop. It was fine when the phone was in sleep. But when using it, it drained the battery super fast...
system_server consumed lots of CPU resource at most time.

rooted g3 fully updated awful battery drain

hello,
so i just unplugged my phone at 98% right before my shower and it drained 7% within the 10 minutes (not even) that i was in the shower. bluetooth was on and the phone was in the shower with me (not literally but in the bathroom with me) as i was listening to music o
via Spotify on a bluetooth speaker.
anyone have any ideas why my battery is draining so heavily? only app that was running was Spotify then settings was the only thing open in the background. brightness was at 48% as it was hard to see it otherwise. data and wifi are on but signal for both is good.

Brother i know what you are feeling. Having data on when you are using wifi still results in drain, turn it off
I have the same problem as well and i dont even listen to any music on mine except the FM radio
LG G3 is the biggest piece of crap ever. Will never buy another LG Smartphone again

i love my g3 but i noticed that i took it into the shower with me today and did the same thing except it was charged to 100% this time and ir stayed at 100% the whole time. my shower wasnt much if any shorter or longer than my last one.
yeah im doing that from now on and now im using the free wakelock indicator to see if it helps at all. if not ill re-download 2x battery saver as i know it works.

Phone always awake & massive battery drain

So I've had this problem for a while now where the phone would be awake for longer than my screen has been on. I would usually get around 10-12% of standby drain overnight.
But since this morning the problem has gotten way worse; the phone has been awake for pretty much every second with 20% overnight drain (I've attached a screenshot below).
How should I go about troubleshooting the issue?
I'm using the Indian variant with 6 gb and I'm currently on MIUI 10.0.2.

Battery Drain Because of Continue High Cpu Frequency Bug
Some Persons Solve this Bug in Miui 10.0.3.
Not solved!
I have also Redmi Note 5 global version with latest MIUI 10.2.1.0 stable and no root just unlocked bootloader and face the same problem!
A big thumb down to Xiaomi.
Maybe chinese try to spy people? Bugs like this should be addressed asap but it seems they are still in place, version after version.
With this big battery we should not face issues of this kind and have battery life over 2 days if this bugs would be resolved!
There a question in my mind: why the hell all manufacturers go for encapsulated phones where you cannot take the battery out??? Devices need current nonstop, even when they're off, for what??? Conspiracy?
Still, what we should do in order to repair our problems, without rooting if it is possible! I know rooting solves a lot of bugs but I'd like to keep it simple.
Something is running in background, try to figured out which app is awake by looking into running services under developer option and then close running applications
S.off your phone for 5 mins and then reboot your device
