Hello, new to the forums here. I recently updated to 4.4.2 on my LG Optimus G Pro and I went from having a battery that lasted all day, sometimes two days to my phone being dead by the time I get home from work for the day ever since the update.
Two days ago I had 1hr18min of screen time within a 6 hours off the charger and the phone was at 15% battery life left. Today, I had 13 minutes of on screen time and at the end of my 6 hour shift my phone was at 40% and dead a few hours after I got home. I have GPS, bluetooth, NFS all disabled and my brightness set to 30%.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm thinking of doing a factory reset and just not updating to the new version of android when it prompts.
Thanks

Get betterbatterystats and see if you phone deep sleeps. If not then check what the wakelocks are in partial wakelocks. If it's a kernel problem maybe you need to flash a different kernel.

i am running stock phone. it is not rooted or anything
Same exact battery drain problem. Im on stock e980 rom (rooted) with no custom kernel.
Gsam battery monitor app is showing the kernel as keeping my phone wake for the entire time my phone has been unplugged.
The problem seems to come and go though. One day itll be fine, but another day the battery will be sucked dry fast.

I'm running stock rooted for e980 and have pretty good battery life .... Try clearing Google play services data and rebooting ... Check and see what's draining your battery mol its pretty easy

I'm also running stock kernel, and have great battery life on kitkat. Just reset your phone to factory defaults

I've done this twice in the past 3 days....
I'm sick of having to set up my phone over and over again. And this is a new phone too. I just got it Monday under warranty because my old phone broke.
It's getting annoying. I used to get 14-17hrs+ of battery life (casual use, usually ending the day at 30-50% too, so I never even reached 0%) with my old phone on Jelly Bean. Now with Kitkat, I get around 6 hours if I'm lucky! According to Wakelock detector, my phone is awake 85%+ of the day! All it points to is Kernel (Android OS). I see lots of Wlan_wake triggers too, so I suspect wifi, but even with wifi off, the drainage still occurs. And I only have a 2GB data plan shared between 3 people, so it's not like I can just use data all the time either. I actually NEED wifi.

do you have an SD card installed? Maybe you can try to remove that and get rid of all other media from your phone storage. Might be a media scanner problem? Or maybe you can try to disable auto sync, and check if Google play services is the culprit.

The media scanner usually shows up in the battery stats window though, and it isn't. I've had a corrupted SD card on my tablet once before and it caused media scanner to go berserk, but the Mediascanner entry appeared under Settings>Battery as the highest battery consumer.
In this case of my phone right now, it is Android OS in Settings>Battery. According to Wakelock detector, GSam, and BetterBatteryStats, it's more specifically Kernel.

Have you tried reflashing your firmware, instead of just doing a factory reset?
I assume you are rooted since you are using BBS and wake lock detector on KK. Why not flash a custom rom?

Hi i had the same problem as you but i started digging inside the system of the phone i found the problem but you will require root access. If you have root you have to delet a lib file tand it carrier iq wich run in background and drains your battery the file to delete is libiq_client.so do that and you will see an increase in battery life

I did this on Tuesday or Wednesday.
... I messed something up on my phone while trying to install a custom recovery, so I was basically forced to reinstall everything. I'm on stock ATT e980 ROM (on an E980) + root. I reflashed the Jelly Bean tot file and then did the OTA update with no apps installed.
On the phone that got warrantied, I had flashed the E980 kitkat backup (now has a flashable version too), and the battery life seemed to be much better on it for about a week, and then the issues started there too.
I just rebooted the phone into recovery and wiped cache and Dalvik cache. Many people on Kitkat are reporting that this helps, but only for about 2 days then the issue returns. Obviously, I want a permanent solution.

I didn't see this part of your message, but I just had to respond lol
Yes, I'm rooted and I absolutely hate custom roms. They take out all the features of the phone that I originally bought the phone for, like Smart Screen, the IR remote (yes, I know it can be ported), and the quick memo button. Plus I used custom ROMs on my old SGS2 and they always caused me tons of problems. Crashes, overheating, random reboots, random SODs, etc etc etc. Plus I hate the AOSP feel. I know it's true Android, but I just don;t like it.

I'm still getting more than usual battery drain, but it is better now.
I just got a replacement OEM LG battery, so I will try that to see if maybe the battery is defective. When I got my phone replaced under warranty, they didn't have batteries in stock, so they just gave me back my old one and ordered me a knew one. The old phone was overheating a lot too, so maybe the battery is bad.
UPDATE: OK, MUUUUUUUUUCH better battery now!
I put in that new battery and "recalibrated" it by draining it to 0% and charging with the power off. Once it reached 100%, I let it charge an extra hour, unplugged, and started up the phone.
I also installed Qualcomm Snapdragon's Battery Guru. I set it up so that it's mostly managing app syncing, but I also set it up so that it will not rely on location services to turn on/off my wifi. I don't want to leave my location services on all the time. I don't know how it is on Kitkat, but on older Android versions (ICS and GB), leaving GPS on was a huge battery drainer! I still treat location like it was back then.
Anyways, it will take a few days for the app to learn my usage patterns, but it's already helping by making certain apps only sync when I open them, etc. I suspect that all the wlan_wake wakelocks are being caused by auto-sync but I'm reluctant to turn it completely off since i rely on it to sync my work schedule, calendar, etc between my phone and tablet. I just wish there was a system setting to allow auto-sync to run every X hours or something. I really only need the sync to run every 6 hours or so.
It's been about 35mins now with 6mins of screen time and the phone is still at 100%. A few text messages and the installation of Battery Guru too. This is normal and how things used to be. After a while, the phone will most likely go to 99% and then have faster drain, but it shouldn't be so rapid like before. Earlier today, after 30mins, the battery would be at at least 95% or lower by now! After a full day, the battery usage graph would should a 45 degree angle too! It used to be an almost level, very gradual angle instead.
I should also mention that for a while, I was using a Zero Lemon slim battery (3150mAh). I bought it because of all the hype Zero Lemon was getting here on XDA, but I really regret it now. I used it for 2 weeks (1 week on my broken phone and 1 week on my replacement) and the drain wasn't consistent, even after several calibration attempts. It lasted me all day though, but I'd be stuck at maybe 3% for like an hour, then while in deep sleep, the battery would "magically charge" to 6%.
After I swapped back to the OEM battery, I don't think I recalibrated, so I wonder if my phone thought I was still using the Zero Lemon.
I'm planning to return the Zero Lemon.
UPDATE2: It's been a couple hours now and the Android OS is starting to retreat from the #1 slot in the battery consumption list!
Screen is #1 now and Android OS went from 65% usage to 14%! :good: :good:
UPDATE3: :crying: OK, it's broken again. I didn't do anything to the phone, but when the phone hit 50%, I left it alone for 2 hours and the battery drained 30% while it was supposed to be sleeping. Android OS is back up to 80% usage!
Wifi on, Location off, Bluetooth off, auto-sync on. I'm trying auto-sync off today to see if there's any dramatic improvement.
UPDATE4: I might be on to something now. I noticed 2 things: 1st, when the screen is off and the phone is SUPPOSED to be in deep sleep, the back of the phone stays warm to the touch. It wasn't hot, but it was warm enough to be noticeable. 2nd, I had System Tuner installed yesterday but uninstalled it this morning. Despite uninstalling and rebooting, the phone was still draining battery fast (I still lost 25% in 2 hours today!). I noticed that System Tuner had added a script to System/etc/init.d, so I deleted that and rebooted. Now the phone seems to be sleeping (says so in BetterBatteryStats and WakeLockDetector), and the back of the phone is COLD to the touch when doing so. I took a shower today (I take fairly long showers too LOL), and then checked my email, and the battery life didn't decrease at all during that time while it was asleep.
Obviously, I need to test this throughout the day now, but this is definite progress, if not the solution.
Also, on my warrantied phone, when I had the Zero Lemon battery inserted, battery drain was high (battery's fault), so I installed System Tuner then too, trying to tweak the phone. After switching back to the stock battery, the drain remained, but most likely due to System Tuner's script.
Then when I got my replacement phone, I ALSO installed System Tuner and of course, I got battery drain issues! I factory reset, but did not install System Tuner, but the problem still remained. However, it probably remained because the reset doesn't remove system files, so this script was still in the init.d folder.
FINAL: I ended up flashing the stock ROM again (I used Eazy Kat 1.0 this time). My phone began bugging out on me. Random crashes here and there, mobile data randomly disappearing (no LTE/4G/3G at all), and worst of all, people were having difficulty hearing me during calls. Reflashing seems to have worked perfectly this time. *knock on wood*
FYI: The last flashes I did, I used .tot files to flash back to stock Jelly Bean and then updated to Kitkat via OTA.

I stumbled across this post and tried that fix. I'll check back in later to see what it does.
So I updated to Marshmallow on my LG-H815, and now my battery drain is a lot higher than on 5.1.1. I'm checking GSAM and it seems like Android System (logd) is using up the most battery.
The phone is running quite warm as a result, before, at the end of the day, my phone would be on around 60%, now it gets to 20%.
I can't seem to find much about logd, but so far I've disabled WiFi scanning, and checked to make sure Activity Logs is disabled.
Does anyone know what could help to bring Marshmallow promised battery life improvements?
Cheers.
I had a battery drain because of Bluetooth. After disabling it it's gone. It's only temporary solution because I need BT to use my SW2 smartwach. So LG do your job.

First thing is to do a factory reset after you upgrade to MM, my battery was worse until I bit the bullet and reset it. Now I get 2 days use with 5hrs screen on time, most of that on GSM data.
my experience with MM
Mine just updated to 20c (EU - Latvia) and its flawless! Had some battery drain at the beginning, now after 3 restarts it runs a lot better and battery life lasted around 15% longer! If someone have issue with processes called dex2oat as they running and eating up the battery, you will need to reset your phone to factory settings, reinstall all of the apps you had on Lollipop and restart phone few times. Mine disappeared next morning. I guess they were apps still optimizing for battery! Hope it helps!
My experiences with MM are:
1) Bluetooth drains THE **** out of our devices. If you don´t need it, disable it. No idea why, but with BT off, I have over 1 hours of screen on time time more every day.
2) Disable auto-brightness. Do it. Helped me to get from 2,5 h SoT to over 3,5 h.
3) Greenify really works for me. I know we have Doze, but Greenify affects system apps...maybe thats why. Or maybe it´s just voodo, idk.
Still, battery life could be A LOT better.
Well I've just done a factory reset, will see how tomorrow goes.

No improvement after a factory reset, may roll back to 5.1.1
In my case I did update from LL directly, battery was a disaster, disabled location services improved a lot. Found out how to do CSE installation with LG UP, reflashed the phone and disabled location services, battery is great...I end up the day with 40% with normal usage with WIFI at work.
I updated my H815p (south africa) to Marshmallow 6.0 using the LGup utility the first time I flashed I selected update only option, and I was getting unusual drain so I retried and this time opted for refurbish option which I believe is the fresh install option, and still only get 55 min screen on time. Android OS is keeping the device awake all the time. What can I try to solve this.

Factory reset, set it charge overnight, then goes to around 30% with 1 and a half hour screen on time. That's what I was getting previously. I've reverted to Lollipop.

thank you very much sir !
great solution without root !
Since getting the update my battery performance has been terrible. Its takes hours to charge the phone and when left off charge last night i lost almost 20% with thr phone doing nothing. When i use my phone the battery can be seen draining.
I have restarted the phone a number of times. Dont really want to do a hard reset though.
I have emailed LG and shall keep you all posted.
Hi,
I joined this forum just for this issue. I was all excited about the new battery improvement with MM 6.0 although my LG G4 had excellent battery life before - thought better is always a good thing.
Until I upgraded to MM 6.0 about a week ago. I thought I was just using my phone more as it kept being at 20% by 5pm when I was never less than 75% before?
So I started doing some reading and checking the battery usage and installed Greenify.
Last night I had my phone at 100%. Unplugged for 8 hours with no usage - I was asleep...
This morning battery was at 80%???
So I checked what is using the battery. The issue is that you cannot reset these items to zero but they do seem to fluctuate so this maybe a current usage? I pulled the battery for 30 seconds and the percentages are about the same.
Google Services 15% (I suspect my location services that are enabled but they were enabled under LL 5.1 and never killed the battery).
Next is a weird one com.lge.exchange 12% (I assume the exchange server I get work email on) - have always had it before as well if that is it and have not changed the sync settings which are manual so only get mail when I call for it)
Phone idle 12% - what is phone idle taking 12% for?
Cell standby 11%.
So based on a 20% drop over eight hours with ZERO usage other than standby - my LG G4 will last about 30 hours on STANDBY. No usage - just sitting in a quiet room.
Can someone help what is now sucking my battery dry all the time?
TIA
Trevor
I have the same issue, after I did the V20D-JAN update a week ago. My SOT dropped from ~4h to less then one with "Android System" beeing on top of my battery history with 50%. I really wonder, what happened to my device.
I did a total of 5 factory resets, 2 full discharges (not hard, when your battery only lasts about 30min of continuous usage) and still, nothing changed. It even got to the point, where it discharged while on the wall adapter after a factory reset. I installed no apps, no root or nothing. Full stock after a reset and it dropped charge in no time.
Disabling location, logging, LG health and most other stock apps after a factory reset did not change a thing. "Andoid System" was at 40-50% battery usage in less then 15min after I booted the phone.
Anyone else had this, too?
So my battery on my phone seems to suck... I just made a full wipe clean install of ICE Rom 3.5.0 with cleanslate kernel, balanced pnp profile v. 22, magisk root and got a whooping battery loss of around 30 percent overnight!
I was using stock before and had around 20 battery loss overnight, which sucks and is the reason i wanted to try a custom rom.
My phone is already 4 months old and I did a battery diagnosis, which ended with 94 percent (which is good right?).
Can anyone please help me?
I don't have Facebook or Facebook messenger installed, turned of WiFi and Bluetooth Scan and Location Services.
And I'm using Greenify, although I didn't greenify any apps yet

What email app are you using? How have you got it synced? See how many times it wakes your device using Gsam or some similar app. This was my battery drainer (I use Bluemail). Anyway, check that out first.
20% battery loss overnight is horrible. Something is not set up correctly or is misbehaving.
Reboot your device and let it set for 2 minutes. Now go to System/Settings/Developer options and select Running Services. Everything look OK there?
I cant see your screenshot.

Yes, I lost the same amount although I had the phone in flight AND extreme energy saver mode...
I'm facing the same problem after i updated my Firmware to 2.28.617.6. My Battery Usage show 45% of ANDROID OS an 39% of ANDROID SYSTEM, I'm already tried Viper 4.1, 4.3, 4.5, 5, 5.1, all with the same problem.
I updated firmware using RUU.exe, and i already updated firmware again to 2.41.401.3 with RUU again. Same problem
I realized the problem is not with rom, all of then, stock or custom, show the same situation. Its a firmware problem with Nougat
My phone is a Unlocked version, with S-ON
Any help?
I would perform a full wipe (+data!). Reinstall your Rom freshly, and the problem should be gone.

I'm already did that, all ROM's installs i did with a clean install.
With no one third app installed, the problem persists
i'm already tested turn of wifi, bluetooth, location, put phone on save battery mode, restart all permissions
Nothing helped
The main question is thats something who did not let phone enter in deep sleep
Yeah I've got the same problem with Android OS and Android System (the wakelocks are HVDCPD_WL and NETLINK) keeping the phone awake and preventing deep sleep almost 100% of the time, which is absolutely killing my battery life.
Frustratingly, the problem is not solved with a full wipe + reflash of any ROM. I originally had the problem sometime after the stock 7.0 OTA upgrade, at which point I unlocked the boot loader, flashed Maximus HD, then the problem went away for about a month until just returning a couple days ago. I've tried flashing the latest Maximus HD, Viper, but nothing is fixing it so far.
I bet it's some kind of hardware issue. I'm almost at the point of giving up and getting a OnePlus 3.
Just sharing my experience: I tried every Sense-based ROM I could find, problem of phone not going to sleep persisted. Even tried RUU to latest 2.41.617.3, which of course wipes absolutely everything - same problem, phone not going to sleep. As last ditch attempt, flashed the LineageOS Jan 28th nightly, and the problem is gone. Phone sleeping properly and battery life is back to normal. Not sure if coincidence or what... Going to stay on Lineage for a while as it works pretty well, but will go back and try Sense again in a couple weeks maybe.
This issue started to affect my phone while still on Marshmallow, around 3 weeks ago. It felt like it started after updating an app. This is what prompted me to update to Nougat. However, the issue persisted, even with full wipes, and even with LineageOS installed.
Moving from stock ROM to LineageOS has reduced battery drain from 10% per hour, to 5%.
Airplane mode and battery saver mode makes no difference to the drain. Neither does any WiFi and GPS setting changes - I have already read about a few possible "causes".
Perhaps the only option is S-OFF and re-flash all partitions of the phone?

Running a RUU would be your best option. This will wipe the phone and restore the stock ROM (system, firmware, etc).
Have you looked at wakelocks or app usage to see if there is any unusually high usages? I had a problem with my 10 awhile back that ended up being a particular version of Google Play Services. Usually these issues can be traced to a particular app or setting, it's just a matter of knowing what to look for.
Ohio wake_lock and no deep sleep. Same issue after reflash ruu, lineage, viper... on all roms same issue and no deep sleep. I think it's hardware issue. I try to flash elementalx kernel and it fixed problem for a day, one day only. Worst phone ever for me.

So my battery on my phone seems to suck... I just made a full wipe clean install of ICE Rom 3.5.0 with cleanslate kernel, balanced pnp profile v. 22, magisk root and got a whooping battery loss of around 30 percent overnight!
I was using stock before and had around 20 battery loss overnight, which sucks and is the reason i wanted to try a custom rom.
My phone is already 4 months old and I did a battery diagnosis, which ended with 94 percent (which is good right?

How do you make a battery diagnosis?
Hi, since about a month I've been having the same issue, the kernel HVDCPD_WL and NETLINK wakelocks are keeping the CPU in use and consuming the battery charge at a rate of about 10%/hour. Has anybody got any new info on this? I read of someone that claims of having fixed it by cleaning the usb-c port, but in my case it doesn't seem to make any difference.
Hello everyone,
I'm experiencing heavy battery drain with my Moto Z Play on 7.0 Nougat.
About device:
Android Version: 7.0
Software Channel: reteu
Build Number: NPNS25. 137-24-1-9
Android Security patch level: April 1, 2017
My 3 months old Moto Z Play (Single SIM) is giving me terrible SOT. It came with Android Nougat out of the box, I set it up from my Google account backup and started to use it. For the first 2 weeks, I could only get 3-3,5 hours of SOT with no gaming at all (Browsing with Chrome, watching Youtube videos, WhatsApp, moderate phone use). First, I tried wiping cache, no results...
Today I've done a factory reset through recovery mode and set the phone up as a new device (didn't restored settings from my google account) so far battery drain seems to continue. There are barely 15 apps installed and this time I uninstalled unnecessary Google Apps to make a fresh start. I don't know what drains my battery, but I really want to see 8-10 hours of SOT with my MZP.
Cell reception: Excellent on 2G, Low to medium on LTE and/or 3G. (Battery kept on draining both on 2G and LTE)
Location: High accuracy at all times, scanning is off, google location history is off.
3rd party apps I use frequently: (all are updated)
Snapchat
Youtube
WhatsApp
Chrome
9GAG
Spotify
So far I've tried,
Wiping Cache,
Factory Reset,
Turning Data Saver Mode on
Restricting background data usage for nearly all apps,
Unmounting my 32GB Sandisk microsd card,
Turning on Airplane Mode at night (still lost more than 20% till morning)
Safe Mode,
Resetting App Preferences,
Turning Synchronization off,
Turning all moto suite features off,
SCREENSHOT TRANSLATION NOTES:
Android İS: Android OS in turkish
Google Play hizmetleri: Google Play Services
Android Sistemi: Android System
May be snapchat and spotify is the reason.
Many of them were having issue with their battery and they also have spotify and snapchat installed.
Try uninstalling both the app and use the device and see how much SOT you are getting.
If this didn't works then perform hard reset and wipe cache partition Together (1st Hard reset then Wipe Cache via recovery).
I was also getting 5-6 hrs SOT earlier but after doing this it becomes insane and i started getting 8-10 hrs SOT.
Yeah, when i uninstall Spotify my battery get really better, that can be the reason

Uninstalled Spotify, 9Gag and Snapchat. Let's see what happens.
BTW, I'm literally using my phone with no more than 10 apps installed and now I have to uninstall 3 of them just to get my phone properly. This is ridiculous.
Location in high accuracy will use your WiFi and Bluetooth to ping other nearby devices to guess your location.It uses a lot of battery.Try using in device only mode
High accuracy is fine, turn off wifi and bt scanning under location. Pretty hidden settings and by default on.

Use the app "Island" which sets up a work profile that you can toggle on and off. The toggle will restrict when the apps use background functions and when they do not. Really useful for social media apps.
Wifi and bluetooth scanning is off, I've disabled them since day one. Yesterday I fully charged the device before I go to bed. Then I rebooted into safe mode and turned airplane mode on. So basically all third party apps were disabled and all the wireless capabilities were cut off. Left the phone on the shelf. Today I woke up to see my phone drained 18% battery. Here's a screenshot. The device was sleeping all the time, yet, the battery is drained by 18%.
Maybe it's a faulty unit, what do you think?
Id try hard resetting at this point. I had battery woes at one point, turned out it was the battery saving and monitoring apps that were causing the issue.
Yeah, that's not normal. I've charged last evening and look ss.

Damn, cannot edit and attach another ss.

Double, sorry. Tapatalk has issues.
Since you get drain while the device is basically doing nothing I'd say try to get it exchanged(the phone )
Quick update:
Did a wipe data and wipe cache through recovery mode.
Set it up as a new device.
Installed NO third party apps, only updated the pre-installed ones.
Charged it up to 100%.
Let it sleep. Next morning, battery drained to 84%. (Excellent cellular signal, Wifi ON all the time.) Check out attached screenshots.
Settings:
Syncronization ON (Only Chrome, Gmail, Contacts, Calendar is activated.)
Location: Battery saving, scanning is OFF.
Backup My Data under Backup & Reset is OFF.
Google Photos app photo backup is OFF.
Rest of the settings are default.
Nougat out of the box in Moto z play?
About phone What is your kernel version? Hardware information?
In developer options take a screenshot of the running services(or see what you have...if you see something... ) cached and running, all information is welcome. Test "show all ANRs" and tell us if any app has problems.

It didn't actually come with nougat, I updated it to nougat right after unboxing. Sorry for misleading information. See attachments for the requested screenshots.

It's strange . Running services (and cached) are ok, no "strange kernel"(I suppose modifications in kernel or something like that, but you have the same as me*) there is nothing(in the info) that causes the battery problem. It can be a "bad" update or hardware problem. I can't help. you should go to technical service or wait to the next update fix your problem.
*I get 8-10 hours of sot,dual sim.

I've never seen a crazy drain like this. If i were you I'd try to flash MM instead. Your first option should be to just do a hard rest and reset everything first. If that doesn't work then I'd say its a faulty unit. I've used both Nougat and MM.. I feel like MM is way better in terms of battery life. This drainage is pretty crazy. Try to upload more pics of your usuage. Maybe something is keeping your phone awake over night.
As I've said in my earlier post, I already tried that wiping everything. I can't go back to MM, can't risk the phone bricking. Tomorrow I'm going to get it fix fixed or replaced.

Oh you mustve gotten the april patch. Yea maybe your MZP is faulty. Best of luck to you!
Hi guys i have my pixel 3xl and my battery is drain too fast when i dont use it in night fo exemple a left him 100% after 6hours i found him 70%
I chek if thers is an app in background and nothing i Factory reset it 3 times and same thing
Let it drain down to about 10%, and then check the battery stats to see what is high on the list. I get less than 1% an hour, and have for the longest time. Running Android 11 since beta 3, and now official.
Hi! I got exactly the same thing with my Pixel 3 and got the same issue, it seems like our device cannot deep sleep. Here is my battery usage and wake lock on EXKM (Running latest Kirisakura, screenshot attached)
Also mine, last night it was 100% then this morning, when i checked it, its already at 95%. Also i noticed that my 3xl now is draining too fast, any tips on regarding this to save or extend my battery? Thanks guys
First week(nearly) after factory reset or flashing img your google play services should drain too much battery which is normal as settings are calibrated, usage patterns adjusted, small updates installed etc.
Most battery issues are related to some rogue app, bad signal reception(it does not need to be full bar, even selected frequency by carrier or phone) or confused google play services. If it is google play then root needed to find root cause(pun intended )
For my case a full day with 1h+ gaming and whatsapp, phone and other stuff 4hrs sot and generally less than %20 percent battery at evening to start charging. You should be happy if you are near this values.
Hi! Thanks for the insight, I'll try to wait until a week and going to post an update here! Just curious because I can't find any information about the kernel wake lock that constantly occurring on my new phone
Edit 1:
So after a few days of searching, I found out the one who cause the deep sleep issue was my modified settings for the Entropy (I modify it via EXKM), after I set it back to default the Deep Sleep issue completely gone and I can stay 0.2 ~ 0.3%/hr when the phone is Deep Sleeping
I hope my issue can help you, and try to reflash it via fastboot with the latest (Android 10 / Android 11) pixel image just to make sure that there is no corrupted data
