13% is ODD. Something is sucking up your battery.
Expand your Android system and post the Screenshot - want to look at cpu wake time.
What is your setting under - Advanced Wifi options - while asleep - wifi on or off ?

To be honest I have done so many tweaks to help with wakelocks. It is definately not an app but the standby time is sooo much worse on my Note in comparision to my HTC One S. I'll get about a day regardless of screen time. On my One S I'll get 2 days with the same screen time and with the same apps.
The only thing I can think of it being is that mdm_hsic kernel wakelock. Have no clue what to do about that though, and it's clearly a Samsung/Note 2 bug given that the HTC doesn't have this sucking away the standby time.

Do you have ebay app installed?
Try uninstalling and see if this makes a difference. The ebay process/service constantly runs in background even tho its disabled in app settings and doesn't show battery usage.
I had same problem and found that its to blame!

The thing is, I also have the ebay app on my HTC and it doesn't suffer from this problem. The HTC is 4.1.1 though so I'm guessing this is either a Samsung problem or a 4.1.2 problem.

hi,just a few pointers to think about ....?
i am on stock 4.1.2 not rooted ,and my avarage battery drain overnight (10/11 hrs +) is 2%..or ..3 %.
i also have a note8.0 and battery drain is normally 1% in standby mode overnight (10/11 hrs )also on 4.1.2
lucky ? no i don't think so .
(maybe i got my all "tweaks " right..no ?)
just a few pointers (things to think about, why others get better results and others not,in this case on 4.1.2 )
good luck

Do you have any Battery manager apps installed? I had one that constantly pulled WiFi status and since I have WiFi disabled when outside of home or work it kept on turning it on/off and drained my battery. It was my error for configuring it wrongly, I admit but still, that may happen without control.
Check Wakelock Detector, click on this:
Awake.............................Statistics since..............................Deep sleep
bar after night of rest and post statistics that you find there, The most interesting is a difference between Screen-on and awake times. If your phone is awake much longer than it has it's screen on then there are some processes that keep it awake and drain battery.

WiFi by itself will not eat battery, something has to use it to create this drain. How do you have your wifi configured?
Check in Settings>WiFi>Advanced>Keep WiFi on during sleep>???
I have that set to Never

Wifi does seem to be messed up on this phone. I find, on standby, it causes more drain than 3G does. Usually something like 10% - 15% overnight.
This is not right and something is seriously a miss with Samsung. My HTC running the exact same apps does not have this problem. You shouldn't have to turn wifi off as opposed to 3G to get better battery life.

Are you thinking about some hardware problem that causes wifi to use more memory than usual? Like higher voltage or something? Because that is not very probable. I think there is some app there that is using wifi, high power usage happens when wifi is performing scans is being turned on or actively transmiting data. Please use wakelog detector to find what app is causing kernel wakelocks and from there we can find a real culprit.
I does not have to be malicious but may be an incompatibility between hardware and some software, one that works well on HTC and not on this Samsung model.

No I don't think it's hardware.
I also don't think it is an app given what I have observed with wakelocks and deep sleep. I have made many adjustments to the phone and I'm clued up with wakelocks and the like and this doesn't seem to be a wakelock issue.
I have even assigned a static ip and made tweaks within my router but it hasn't helped. There seems to be a strange way this phone handles wifi and it is causing unnecessary drain.
In regards to Kernel wakelocks, it would appear something called mdm_hsic is causing lots of wakeups and more standby drain than it should be and this does not feature at all on my HTC. This is not related to wifi, but I'm pinning the general crappy standy drain im getting on this but there doesn't seem to be a way to get rid of it.

mdm_hsic is related to Modem part, you may try different modems (be mindfull of efs problem in newer firmwares), also try to enable/disable "fast dormancy". I think you could test that by selecting "GSM only" and observing.

Thanks for the reply
I have tried different radios in the past. If that's what you mean?
I've also tested around with fast dormancy (it is currently disabled)
My network only works on 3G and has no 2G coverage. It is purely a 3G network and therefore GSM only will not work. This problem still persisted when I was on a different network though and selected gsm only fornthe majority of the time.

Yes, I was talking about radios.
Have you ever tried changing CSC file? Full, four part flash in Odin, not only PDA?
What method did you use for modifying fast dormancy setting? Because the correct one includes full factory reset when changing CSC. Anyway fast dormancy would be a problem only if you used 3G network for data.

Nope have not tried changing the CSC.
The method I used for fastdormancy was with that app in the marketplace than allows you to toggle it on and off. I'm not sure if fastdormancy is linked the mdm_hsic though, to be honest.

Standby drain

When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the OnePlus X's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Absolutely awful. I have probably Play Services drain in OOS2.2.1-x (also present in the to roms before this)
(no root or such). See this thread about it.

Play services goes crazy everytime I turn on mobile data. In wifi, it never appears in battery stats but if I use mobile data, this stays on top of the list. I don't know what the problem is, I have used almost all the solutions but nothing works.
On wifi, battery drains is hardly 1-2 %, but mobile data is continuous downwards slope. I have instances where I turned on mobile data in office hours and hardly touched it for 10-15 mins. By the time I reached home, it was down 50%.

Yes. Since 2 weeks I have battery drain like hell. Android OS and Kernel (Android OS) are sucking about 30%. Can't make it to a normal work day. I'm down to 35% at this moment with 46 Minutes SoT. This sucks so hard....

Phone is always awake
The phone never sleeps and is always awake. I have just rooted, so that I can try out better battery stats and find out if there are any wakelocks. But this should not be the case for a stock OS.
Very disappointed. Barely gives me 4-5 hrs of standby time.

This is caused by the mobile radio active bug, and it's present in every Android ROM. Google doesn't fix it despite it has been reported by a lot of people...

I turn off Google back up data. This seems to help for I don't have any serious drain. Also automatic update in playstore.

Its all depends on cellular network reception and range when u r in low range and still tries to use mobile data or if there is a frequent change in towers, battery drains fastly than usual..

The combination of mokee os, partical kernel, naptime and some changes within the google.xml file
my battery stand-by is really good
That graph shows a low use period only 2 h on Screen time

Lol I got the best idle combo and have essentially stopped idle battery drain when cell data is off...

5 days if I keep battery saver on, no leakage whatsoever

With WiFi you always will get a good battery life without do anything, unless you have any App that causes wakelocks. The problem is when you use mobile data... The bug is present since Lollipop in every phone and it doesn't seem to be fixed by Google...
Even Xperia phones with Stamina mode are suffering the annoying bug ?

Nevermind, I found a post about how to disable GCM through Google.xml. I don't feel like crippling my phone's ability to receive messages while it's in my pocket.

The changes prevent Google services from beeing immun against doze and everything else
So your massenger Mails will get thedelay of doze intervall.
SMS anx phonecall and so on will work all the time.

It will prevent messages from any GCM enabled app and I know quite a few of the apps I use go through GCM. I get okay battery life though so it's not a big worry.

I've found some improvement by going to App->Google Play Services-> Data usage and disabling mobile data but it doesn't really fix the problem... My X keeps draining battery when the screen is off

Battery drains from 100% to 15% in 10 hours. Why ?!

I don't know why it happens. I tried every tip that was available, even amplify helps only a bit. Battery stats shows Android OS's battery usage at 38% level and there's just screen at second place. Is that bug of lollipop ? Any suggestions ?

Do a factory reset, it may fix this froblem

Do a full reset, don't install the facebook app . Disable location services if need be. Also are you in a weak LTE signal zone? If you are on Wi-Fi, try dropping it just down to 3G while on Wi-Fi. Also install only really needed apps and see, what causes a bleed.

Two more tips if you haven't already done them:
1) Turn off "wifi scanning" in the WIFI settings
2) Turn off "OK Google detection" in the Google app settings.

maybe I'm not getting something here but isn't 10 hours to 15% something of a marvel for this device? after all, each and every review I've seen for this device clocks this in at 6-7 hours of various usage (games, watching movies, internet browsing, etc.). how do you use this device anyway?
is it on standby that gets you to 15% in 10 hours? what model are you using by the way?
if it is really that abnormal to you, I would suggest checking your warranty first if it still applies.

Terrible battery life probably caused by wakelocks

My battery will completely drain after <10 hours while the screen is off!
However I was able to find out thatquickgooglesearchbar is always the top app.
Those screenshots are a bit old but it's still the same thing, I did manage to root it today, and I was testing Greenify which did nothing even with the Xposed modules, service disabler apps just did not show that specific service for some reason. I was able to remove the widget with Xposed GEL settings but it was still running even though the widget wasn't there.
So can someone please help me out here, maybe the search bar isn't the problem but I just want some battery life.

search and install betterbatterystats (read the whole first post) and it will tell you if its wakelocks etc.
Service disabler apps will need a setting to show system apps (or something similar) ticked or switched to etc.
greenify system apps in greenify also needs to be selected. You may also need to cut wake up paths to get it to stay greenified.
You could alternatively delete the apk of hibernate it (byfar the easiest option of all this).

I don't need betterbatterystats, I have battery Battery Historian, check the screenshots, It's clearly the search bar, on my other phone It isn't shown as a top app.
Also I went in the system folder /apps and there was no googlesearchbar, or in any other system apk remover tool, perhaps it was removed by another app, but it's still for some reason running.

Your 3rd image shows googlequicksearchbox had 370ms (milliseconds) of wakelocks over a 9hr period. I really doubt that is your issue.
If it is your top app, then it is probably because of Google Now launcher listening for OK Google spoken keyword.
I seriously doubt that is your battery drain problem as almost 90% of people probably have OK Google turned on and are using Google Now launcher and only a very few have serious battery drain.
BTW wakelocks aren't the issue usually. In the past it has been "partial wakelocks" which means an app locked the device from sleeping, but never released the lock, so the device never goes to full sleep. If you see some app with partial wakelocks or if you see some app with hours of regular wakelocks then that might be an issue. Minutes or microseconds of wakelocks are inconsequential.
I suggest you flash factory image and install your battery tester only. Turn off wifi, bluetooth, nfc, cell radio. Test the drain overnight. That is a baseline for the minimum drain your device can have. Then enable what wireless stuff you normally have turned on. See what that drain is. Then start installing apps and see what that drain is.
If you have reasonable/expected battery drain with stock and everything turned off, then it is just a process of elimination to see what is causing your battery drain.
If you can't get reasonable/expected battery drain with stock and everything turned off, then you probably have a bad battery.
For the record, my overnight battery drain with everything turned off is 0-1% With wifi turned on about 1-2%. With wifi+cell about 2-3%.
IMO the biggest drains for standby are wifi and/or cell signal related. Either bad signals or apps sending data in background or apps that are polling all the time.

Factory reset didn't do anything a few days ago, the results were exactly the same that was when my phone wasn't rooted, so I guess I should return the phone, and get a new one?

What is your battery drain per hour with nothing installed and all wireless turned off and everything stock?
I'd only return it if that is significantly more than 0-.2% or 1% every 5 hours.
Otherwise it is something you have installed or something to do with the signal and how it interacts with your phone.
Once you start installing stuff or turning on wireless (wifi/bt/cell) then it is no longer purely about the battery and there are more factors that need to be isolated independently.
You really need to establish a baseline to see what the minimum battery drain is. Then you can determine if the battery is the problem or something else.
If you just install everything and turn everything on, there are too many moving parts.

Which battery life was the one you think you have a problem with, standby or in use? IMO for in use battery time this phone is about average. Your title of "wakelock" made it seem like you were concerned about standby battery time as it doesn't matter if there is a wakelock if the device is already turned on and in active use.
When turned on, the screen is probably the number one thing eating power, so adaptive brightness could help, but if you are in a bright area, it might be worse than if you fixed the brightness below max.
Even if you have adaptive brightness turned on, the slider scale still is useful as you give the adaptive brigthness mechanism some idea what level of brightness you feel comfortable when the mechanism detects dark, med, bright situations.
One of the worse things for eating power is for the cell radio to be turned on but have no signal, like inside office building or just a bad signal area in general. The reason is the cell radio is power efficient once it establishes signal, but when it is searching for (or loses) signal it uses a lot of power.
If you are doing a lot of disk activity like taking video or hdr pictures, it would probably help to have your userdata unencrypted as this device does software (kernel) encryption and doesn't use the fast/more power efficient co-processor.

When turned on, the screen is probably the number one thing eating power, so adaptive brightness could help, but if you are in a bright area, it might be worse than if you fixed the brightness below max.
Even if you have adaptive brightness turned on, the slider scale still is useful as you give the adaptive brigthness mechanism some idea what level of brightness you feel comfortable when the mechanism detects dark, med, bright situations.
One of the worse things for eating power is for the cell radio to be turned on but have no signal, like inside office building or just a bad signal area in general. The reason is the cell radio is power efficient once it establishes signal, but when it is searching for (or loses) signal it uses a lot of power.
If you are doing a lot of disk activity like taking video or hdr pictures, it would probably help to have your userdata unencrypted as this device does software (kernel) encryption and doesn't use the fast/more power efficient co-processor.

Standby is the problem, on screen times are good enough.
Anyway, I don't even know what to do at this point. Android N didn't help enough (cell data is off), I guess I can flash Android 6.0 again and then try to fix it using apps...
What do you suggest I should do, I'm out of ideas at this point.

What is the power drain over a couple of hours with *no apps installed* completely stock, and wifi/cell turned off? What is the change when wifi is turned on?

Have you set "WiFi on during sleep" to "Never"? in the Advanced WiFi settings?
In the original release, there was a bug where WiFi would stay on even if you had set it to "Never" draining battery in standby.
Somewhere between MDA89E and MHC19Q they fixed it and WiFi will go to deep sleep after being in standby for a while, but they introduced another (or exposed existing) bug where WiFi will not resume after coming out of sleep, unless you cycle WiFi off/on. So you're standby battery should be better with this setting, but it'll be a little more annoying when turning on your device.

Question Deep sleep problems

check detailed battery consumption you should be able to tell which app is draining your battery

I can't understand because I only see applications that have consumed battery while using the phone.

i will try to simplify it to you :
you will have to full charge your phone to 100% before going to sleep and just remove it from the charger just before sleeping and once you weak up go to battery usage and you can tell immediately what is draining your battery
you can also that ram boost is turned on
and turn off always on ambient display
hope this helps

Good idea thank you.
Ram boost is on
I wiil try to turn off Aod.

Have you got AOD enabled? I was getting the same usage with it enabled, turned it off cos it doesn't make that much of a difference.

Install betterbatterystats, give it required permissions via ADB and check what apps keep waking the phone up during night when you wake up. I see you are using telegram, I've seen someone having problems with it in terms of battery drain, try to set telegram to optimize battery drain (not intelligent), see if that helps.

I mainly use whatsapp for messaging, have it on intelligent control as you can see and the messages aren't delayed.

Ditch Whatscrap, FB, and such malware apps.
Turn off all power management as it causes all kinds of issues.
Cloud apps are bandwidth and battery horrors.
Goggle Firebase, disable as well as Transport.
Playstore disable until needed.
Google Play Services is a known battery hog, I keep it disabled 99% of the time.
On my Note 10+ SOT usage is about 9%@ hour browsing on Brave.
Less than 1%@hr with AOD always on.
Less than .5%@hr sleeping with AOD touch to view.
I'm running Pie on a stock AT&T N10+ using a package blocker and Karma Firewall to lock it down. It's heavily reconfigured.
It was a twitchy, hot running bandwidth eating battery hog.
Now it's a very stable, fast, cooling running dream device...
hell yeah

Oh man, that's some hate! I have pretty similar battery performance without disabling anything and using WA Btw this is a OnePlus 9 Pro forum, not note 10+ forum.
