LG G3 D855 Battery drain while Idle - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

A couple weekes ago i rooted my phone and flashed fulmics 6.9. Then 1 or 2 days later i flashed Lineage OS, but because i didnt have some of the stock apps from LG that i use (QuickMemo+ and LG camera app) i flashed fulmics rom again. I decided to root the phone and flash a custom rom because the phone started to get laggy and the battery life wasn't the best. But then i start experiencing a restart loop on the fulmics rom. I then tried to do a clean install of fulmics rom again, but because of the constant restart loop i only managed to successfully install it again while plugged on the charger. I googled for a solution and found out that it could be a battery issue. I then tried to flash Stock v30B rom but without success (because of the restart loop once again, and also the flash software kept saying that it lost connection with the phone). I then took my brothers battery (He has the same phone, LG G3 D855), and successfully flashed the stock rom (v30B), but when i put my battery again it started to restart again in loop. After some testing i found out that it only happened when the battery was about 20/40% and everytime it restared, the battery percentage wasnt correct (I got drops from ~ 40% to 5%), and if i removed the battery from the phone for a few minutes it would show incorrectly again but with more percentage (like 25% instead of 5%), i even tried to calibrate the battery but with no successfull results. I then bought a new battery (supposedly original) and from my tests the restart loop stopped, but now the battery drains on iddle like it drains while using (It went from 100% to about 70/60% until it "stabilizes"). I researched for a solution and found out that it could be background apps and installed greenify and it seems to have improved a bit but nothing significant, and enabled airplane mode after that and it improved even more, but once again, nothing significant (I still think it drains more than normal while on iddle). When i rooted and flashed the roms i was on stock v30N and never have rooted the phone before that, and tried to follow all steps correctly so i wouldnt damage anything. Currently im on stock v30N again. And i've had experience with root and rom flash before, and never had any problems. My phone is almost 2.5 years and never had any issues with it or the battery, and also im now using the same apps as before.
Is it possible that i damaged the phone somehow during the root and rom flash process? or im just unlucky with the batteries ?
Note: The tests i conducted with greenify and airplane mode only went for a couple hours (still testing right now), maybe it needs more time so i note any difference.
Sorry if i mispelled something wrong (Im Portuguese ).

I have been testing the iddle battery life with greenify for a while now and it improved a bit, not nothing major. Any thoughts what it might be ?

[Q] Need Help from expert on huge battery drain issue!

Hi,
I am really really really fedup of this one thing!!
The thing is my phone is not going in sleep mode..Batterystat says the SMSdispatcher is using my battery 100%..I have no idea why.
I tried wiping everything like 10 times and reinstalled ROMs but still same problem!! How is that possible?Battery gets drained like hell..so fast so empty
Any solution for this? I have literally tried everything i could.
Could baseband be the problem? I am on BB83 and KXP..I was on same ROM few weeks ago and everything was fine. And suddenly thought to go for a ROM trying trip and tried many ROMs .
Any help will be appreciated
Thank You..
Lock bootloader and try to repair with sony pc companion
I tried stock based ROM and surprisingly there was no battery drain at all...then i tried CM10 based ROMs and all had battery drain...either one or other thing was draining my battery.

Shut off after LG logo

D851 here, When ever i switched from cloudy 2.5 to blisspop 4.0 and after wiping everything i flashed a various of radios bootstacks and etc to make it boot after many failed attempts to boot ( it boots up but after 4 or so seconds after the lg logo the screen turns black and doesnt turn back on until after i pull out the battery) it worked after i flashed the rom WITHOUT a custom kernel so naturally i booted up just fine and thought maybe now i set up everything on my phone and tweaks i should go back and flash a custom kernel i used to use (777 r16) but then it gave me the problem i faced before the black screen after the lg logo no kernal would work. THEN another problem arised similar to the freezing on the black screen randomly during a usage thru my day the phones screen would be unresponsive animations but touch wouldnt work and i know its not my screen cause when i flash back to cloudy it works fine the freezing happens at least every 5 mins. someone halp?
i know this thread is kinds old...
but i have this same issue too... I found if I switch batteries the problem isn't as bad... but, then it becomes bad again. Its weird. Before I swapped batteries I couldn't even login with my google account, after a fresh flash. then after I swapped batteries (gf has same phone) I was able to get through to the end and setup the phone. But, then an hour later it started happening again....
OP, did you find a solution?

i actaully did i think one of the problems was maybe flashing over the same kernel? see what happened was after i gave up flashing the kernel i just flashed without it and to my surprise the build actually came with the kernel pre-installed...shocker and so i had no need to flash over the kernel that i wants because the maker of g3 tmo blisspop already had it in his build and it boots up fine( DISCLAIMER: i cant say this about other roms because the only one i actually tested and wanted was blisspop)

Okay.
Well, when I was flashing I never flashed a kernel.
Ill be getting a brand new Anker Battery in the mail today. Ill report my findings.
I ended up going to a stock based rom and the issue never happened. So I stuck with it. Ill have to do some testing later and ill let you know how the battery works.
It's not the battery
I downgraded my T-Mo G3 since I couldn't root it with LP on it. Went back to 4.4.2., rooted it, TWRP'd it, and installed the latest CM12 Nightly, Gapps, SU, etc.
As long as the sim card was OUT the installation was great on wifi only, As soon as I put it in it shut off right after, or during boot up. Take the sim out and it works. And yes, the only way to get back into recovery was pulling the battery and doing the key press to recovery. Mystified.
If I find out anything, I'll post it here.
I'd say do a complete return to stock, upgrade via LG Mobile Support tool all the way to 20G, see how it works stock for a while. Then root ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-method-lg-devices-t3129197 using the first method) and see what happens.

LG G3 Reboot/Power-on Hang Requires Battery Pull - What's the Fix?

A fair number of unlucky LG G3 owners using AOSP/CM-based ROMs, myself included, have a major problem with the issue where a reboot/power-on cycle results in the phone getting stuck at the LG or boot splash screen ad infinitum.
The only way around it is to do a battery pull, sometimes several times, before the phone eventually recovers, but not until after it's gone thru its "Optimizing" or "Upgrading" apps, which takes 5-10 extremely annoying minutes.
I'm using a D851 and have this issue with every ROM I've used (Xenon, Exodus, AICP, to name a few).
This is not a battery issue as I've had the same problem using batteries from 3 different manufacturers. I've also had the same problem when plugged in.
If anyone knows of a fix - would be greatly appreciated (please don't say factory reset or root back to stock - I've already done this and it doesn't fix this issue).
I also have this problem with aosp and cm roms, i also get bsod sometimes. I think that maby the battery is broken, but im not sure since i dont got any problems on stock. When i get money for a new battery i will reply here with results.
I got my new battery today and it bootet up instantly
I had this issue on my d852 running cm12.1. It turns out using autorec is what caused it for me. I fixed it by flashing a kitkat tot then installing twrp using flashify. Once I had twrp installed I flashed the modem.bin from a lollipop d852 kdz. I haven't had a shutdown/reboot hang in a week now.
I have the same problem D851, it happens on latest builds of exodus and aicp. candy and blisspop works fine without any issues. I have changed the battery but the problem persist on exodus and aicp

I have some reboot issues and date time Issues

I was using the stock rom rooted 30d and I started to have battery issues, it showed 30% then 40% then 2% and bootloops with gps applications, and time date issues, I changed the battery, the gps problems disappeared battery changing disappeared, but I get occasional bootloops when battery is less than 10% or random date time errors, I reinstalled everything and used the 30e version, problem still persists what do you guys recommend flash instead with lg tool, and reroot? or any other suggestions? thanks

One plus 3 rebooting frequently!!!

Hi there,
I'm new to this thread,
I own a one plus three for 1.5 years, i have rooted by phone and flashed many custom roms, recently i flashed franco's kernel to test out the battery life. The next day mrng my phone started rebooting on its own,it kept on rebooting every minute or so,it never went past the one plus logo at many times. I tried flashing stock rom with recovery ,tried stable stock oos rom ,no effect.
My friend thinks it is a hardware pblm ,however i have never dropped the phone and handle it with care. Kindly give me ur suggestions...Thanks in advance
whenever Wireless LAN was turned off or disconnected, a kernel panic due to a netfilter bug (or similar), caused a reboot. And I don't know how to fix it.
Hmm
