Does anyone see "com.carrieriq.iqagent" wakeloke in your LG G2? It tries to search GPS everything I make a phone call or some other system operation. It drives me crazy...
that would be carrieriq that is a nasty little thing that was found on the g2. It was killing my battery like crazy. There are 7 different processes that it has running and there is a thread here on the forums to disable them.
Could you kindly tell me which thread you used? Thanks

Ok guys,
Since the OTA my wifi calling feature is taking 40% of the power. The wifi which i use has a diiferent reading so can not be mixed up. Now wifi calling is clearly disabled and can not forcestop it.
Any suggestions or solutions and is any one else in the same boat.
Also is there another app that breaks down like power tutor does so i can cross check. Thanks

I disabled mine using Titanium Backup; it allows you to "freeze" applications. I have an awaiting question in the Q&A forum (where this thread should really be as well) asking about the battery usage and coding of the app.
I am not sure where that section is under G2, but if you can post the answer here when u get it. I will try Titanium back up, i have a temp root so hopefully it'll work. Thanks

Oh, my bad... really? *Checks G2* odd...
Ok i got the Titanium pro and froze the wifi calling but it still is running even though titanium says its frozen. The power tutor still says its consuming 33% and in systems ruuning apps u can still see it. Can you check if yours stoped for sure using titanium?

I haven't seen this problem. I've been using wifi calling all week while I've been out of the country and my phone has lasted all day. I'm probably only on the phone for somewhere between 60 and 90 minutes of the day, but I'm on the phone taking pictures, uploading them, texting, and just general G2 type stuff. I'm getting awesome battery life and haven't seen it go in the red once all week. I'm using JuiceDefender and that seems to be working great at managing the battery life.
Using JuicePlotter I can see that I took it off the charger at 6:00 am the other day when I left the office, and at 4:30 PM my battery was only at 23% when I put it on the charger in my hotel. I walked around town doing some shopping instead of going to bed (big mistake). I'm just not seeing WiFi calling being much of a battery drain. In fact, according to this graph, my battery went down quicker when it wasn't connected to wifi than when it was. Probably because the phone was searching for a signal and not getting one out here in Manila at all.
I took it off the charger last night at 8:00 pm and as of 4:10 am I am at 66% of my battery left. I've spent 2 hours on wifi calling and was looking for a couple apps in the market for probably half an hour or so as well as a half hour of Angry Birds play in the car on the way to the office.

Figured it out last night. I favorited the G2 section before the Q&A form was added. Had to remove and refavorite.

I will try juice defender, i think the problem might be in power tutor as well as when i uncheck the lcd part of the total, wifi calling seem to drop of the list which should not be as wifi calling can not be using lcd time, so i will try and reconfirm using a different app. But in power tutor it clearly logs as using 40% some time more of the total power. But thanks for that info.

I used the method detailed here to permanently disable many of the apps that came with my G2.
This method is a bit in depth and requires either an ADB connection or the terminal emulator app, but it works well.
Good luck, I hope this helped.

Ah that's right, I forgot about that; especially odd because I had done that myself before the perma-root. Yeah, OP, follow those instructions and you should be able to actually disable the Wifi Calling app.
Today i want to work and put the device in a drawer. never touched it during the whole shift but one phone call. during a five hour period 30% of the battery was wasted. bbs showed audioout_2 wakelock took place for 5 hours. screen time was 30 minutes. I haven't kept any screen shots from bbs but i did capture on system battery usage.
what could have caused it?

STOCK EVERYTHING .
not even rooted or bootloader unlocked. An out of the box Nexus 4 16GB (301k),.
Perhaps there's a corrupted media file somewhere in the storage system.

I have no media files on my storage, all my music is via GOOGLE PLAY.
(the wakelock is not caused by google play because since I booted the phone I have not listened to any music)
There seems to be a fix for the problem, haven`t used it myself though. Link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2050252. Its a init.d script at boot and you need root.
I wish to avoid rooting my device. when I bought the nexus I wanted to have a vanilla Google experience.
Also I don't wanna void my warranty.

Not rooting a Nexus is like forbidding the Pope to pray But to each his own.
Yeah I know, I think I'll root if i hear reports that rooted devices can receive official google updates

and what of the audio out 2 wakelock? I'm still getting high wakelock times because of it

I remember one time, I left a game without closing the game. 5 hours later my battery dipped and I tried to figure out why. I realized that the game was still running in the background and drained a good 30% of my battery because of the mediaserver. I know it was still actice cuz when I hit recent it picked up exactly where I left off with no lag jumping back into it.
I'm guessing the game isn't coded to freeze in the background when you leave it. I could be wrong, but this is one possibility I think.
I'm on PA, with the matrix kernel. The game is called PAD in case anyone wants more info. I say, just be sure to exit games or generally certain apps when you finish playing them.
This only happened once and since then never again since I started closing that particular app correctly. Also, I don't mess with any music volume booster mods. Just get some noise isolating earbuds/headphones. The volume booster mods definitely killed battery much quicker than it was worth with my first nexus 4
I close everything and still got 1.5h of AudioOut_2 and AudioOut_3 wakelock overnight . 20% battery drain overnight. normally my battery drains 5-6% overnight.

Maybe there is a corrupt file on your phone, it doesn't have to be music, could also be a ringtone or a video.
considering you don't want to root I would consider factory reset then reinstall 1 app at a time until you find the culprit. I know it's time consuming but it's either that or keep your charger handy

There are a million and one threads on XDA about various apps, widgets, and general approaches for saving battery life. What I'm looking for, and haven't been able to find, is a simple program that doesn't actually do anything active to help, but rather just watches and provides detailed data on what's going on.
I'm 1 months into into my S4, and battery life is noticeably different than when I started. I have lots of theories, but have very little hard data - and that's what I'm after. I don't want a full-fledged program that's going to start flipping things on and off for me. I want an app or tool that can pay attention to whats going on throughout a few battery cycles, tell me how much various culprits are impacting my battery, and do nothing more.
Look up BetterBatteryStats. I like it, and find it very useful to drill down anything acting up sucking battery. Read how to properly use it and it's a great tool.

I have a sprint LG g2.
Just recently the process Sensors.qcom started using cpu all the time and is murdering my battery life.
I am unrooted using stock everything.
What is Sensors.qcom and how can I stop it from eating my battery?

I'm having this problem also.
What is sensors.qcom?
same here but on the nexus 5 since the latest update
I toggled all of my sensors and rebooted a few times and the next day the process was gone.
Haven't seen it since. Doesn't even show in battery usage anymore.
I read something about apps that don't shut down the sensor after it finished using it and the still in use sensor was why that process was running.
But I'm not sure if that is even close to what is happening.
Try seeing if it's running around time of startup, if it is, find out which downloaded apps auto start and disable or uninstall them and reboot again.

just had this issue myself, anyone else had it and managed to fix it??
My phone is 3 days old and noticed my batterylife wasn't as good today, it came down to Sensors.qcom.
Can anyone else tell me there experience?
I also have a nexus 7, I was seeing the same issue with it.
So I found sensors. Qcom in system/bin, then changed its name to sensors.qcom.bak.
I lost my accelerometer, but things seem to be fine.
This is the problem with our G2s. Certain apps are keeping the accelerometer in use after the app has closed, a definite Google issue.

Well need to find those bloody apps then. I have GiONEE Elife E7 with same battery drain issue with sensor.qcom
I had such a problem for a long time. But then I used the application "Ccleaner for Android 2.0" (or later) and delete this process. It was in the section "Delete at your discretion". I have LG G2 sprint unlocked by a European operator with root. All my sensors (accelerometer) work very well. sensors.qcom stay in system/bin

Try googling the wakelock
I'd suggest running a nadroid, then clean flashing your phone to check for wakelocks. Then add your apps back and keep checking.
User-installed apps are responsible for virtually all wakelocks (theoretically a badly built ROM too, but that's unlikely in practice, if you're using a popular one)
It could well be something low-level like Viper4Android, though it does depend on what ROM you're using, and what apps you've installed/installed recently.
