so is it just me or does setting up this watch drain the battery VERY fast? I just got my 360 this morning and when setting it up, pairing it to my galaxy s3, etc, the battery went from 100% to 75% in a matter of 1/2hr, is this normal?
During setup a lot of data is sent to the watch which causes the increased battery drain. After everything is synchronized you should see battery life stabilize after a couple of charge cycles.

Newly flashed rom, charged it full, and recalibrated battery.
only 6% battery drain while sleeping
But when im using it, it could use 1% battery after 5 minutes, but then suddely the next minute it has dropped 2-3%.
Sometimes it holds the battery, but then suddely it drops like crazy.
I havent let the battery die after recalibration, but i thought that after resetting the battery stats it should be more linear battery drain when im doing the exact same operation the whole time, so i guess it would drain the same amount of battery, not being that jumpy

using Current widget or battery monitor to observe how many mA it consume every one or five minutes? average 2-10mA is normal
I bought G Pro day before yesterday. The device is amazing and i love it but i have got a small problem. First day i charged battery to 100% and i got a day usage with 25% of brightness set with screen on time for about a little less than 4 hours which is amazing. Yesterday i had to charge phone twice because the battery depleted within 2 hours on screen time and moderate usage like calls n text (no gaming). Today morning 80% power was left of second charge. I went to college and and did not use the phone much but battery got completely depleted within 1 hour of screen on time at 50% brightness. When i came home back i charged the phone to 100%, when i disconnected charger from phone the charge dropped immediately to 98%. After 3 mins it fell to 93% and now is depleting fast. there is no apps running in background or anything and no apps showing up in battery stats that may be depleting battery. Any solutions to this? can it be faulty battery? Plz Help!!!
Edited: viber or whatsapp was causing this battery drain. I rooted my phone n installed greenify. Hibernating all user apps fixed the battery drain. If anyone has battery drain issue may try this solution.
Over the course of months of flashing, I have noticed that my battery life drains really fast. I'm currently running AOKP. I think I calibrated the battery correctly yet I still have terrible battery life. I charged it to 100%, used an app, Battery Calibration, to reset the battery stats, let it drain to 0%, the plugged it back in. The battery said 57% so I charged it back to 100% yet the battery life is still awful. My brightness is at the lowest setting, my WiFi is off, and I am using Greenify to hibernate applications. I've attached pictures of my battery life (from GSam) and pictures of what my software looks like. What is causing the drain? How can I fix it? If anybody can help, I'd be very thankful.
Edit: I have a Hyperion 4200 mAh battery. I replaced the stock battery but it didn't seem to make a difference. The voltage reads at about ~4200 mAh when at 98%.
Edit 2: My battery was at ~60% then I shut it off and plugged it in. It is now at 2%... Should I charge to 100% then reset battery stats?
I just got my MOTO 360 and the main problem I faced after the slow Update is Battery life.
Its very worst and goes with apps usage it drops 20% battery if used for 5 to 10 min. I was waiting for charge cycles so that the battery life gets stable but today it worked only for 6 Hrs max and the remaining time displayed is absurd like 100% charge 1 hr remaining.
I did reset for like 3 time didn't work.
I have noticed some apps with no name eating battery.
Please let me know if its normal or I need to get is replaced as I have just got it 2 days ago.
Thanks
This is somewhat normal. You have to remember every time you resent your watch everything from your phone will have to sync to your watch again. I find that after a reset battery life is not good for the first day. Also if you have Google Music and are syncing any music to the watch that KILLS the battery down to 50% until all the music is synced. Also if you have Google Fit make sure on your phone you don't have High Accuracy Mode enabled as I have found that will run the GPS more often on the watch and kill the battery much faster.
Let me define a few terms first I am going to use.
Utter drain: Tab used till it switches off automatically and has been left unused and uncharged for several days.
Full drain: Tab used till it switches off automatically.
No drain: Tab charged from 1 to 100%.
I have noticed how my tab if I start charging it from utter drain last A LOT longer on the battery charge compared to if I start charging it from a full drain.
Why does this happen? Can it be fixed? If not is it possible to drain the battery of the tab immensely to create the utter drain status artificially?
My tab 7.7 does not have this problem.
