so recently 2 night in a row my lg g3 died completely over night.. it would never do that.
so i had wake lock detector installed and took a look at it one day and noticed.
light flow had over 1000 wakeup triggers...
on gsam it used 10%
this never use to happen with light flow i had it for about 2 months, this app gone rouge or what. because if its not light flow i have no idea what els it is, other than on gsam it says android system and kernal, but we all know that is always at the top..

Ive used Light Flow since the day i got my G3 no problems here, maybe use greenify to green it and then push the led notifications through?
My main offender is Google Search - as "ok google" is just sitting there waiting for me to ask it something, i wont turn it off cause it a great feature.
Im loosing about 1% every 8 hours when not in used, great deep sleep.

i know i never haad an issue with it till now, was there an update that many ruined it for me? idk..
Likewise for me too. Been using Lightflow for G3 and many previous devices.
My problem is also the "OK Google detection". Keep a wakelock when the screen is off at times.
I'd try uninstalling and reinstalling. I've been running it since I got my G3, and for a year or more on a SG3 before that, and it's never used a significant amount of battery.
One thing to understand is that the number of wakelocks isn't nearly as important as the total wakelock time. In the last 13 hours, Lightflow is responsible for 0.1% of my total wakelock time, and 0.2 percent of CPU usage. It doesn't even show up on the list of apps in the battery display.
Short and simple. I ordered from best buy, so I have a two week window to make sure I'm happy with my unit. The phone is doing two things that are bothering me.
1. Battery drain while idle. I was under the impression this phone was supposed to be a champ here. However, last two nights have shown otherwise. Last night after only 6 hours of sleep the phone went from 100 > 77. A significant decrease in performance over my note 4. The night before wasn't as severe, but no apps running, and nothing under battery management to notice. I should note that my drain while in use meets or exceeds my expectations.
2. Do not disturb. I swear last night, I set my alarm and noticed this feature was on, promptly turned it off, and went to bed. It was on again this morning. I HATE dnd features, never will I want to miss notifications in purpose, I'd turn my fracking phone off, or notification sound to silent. This turning on by itself is not going to work. Seems to turn on when I set my nighttime alarm.
Do I exchange or deal with it?
One is user error, the other is an OS issue that will likely be fixed
DND does not magically turn itself on. You're turning it on, accidentally somehow.
As for the first, it is more than likely an app, or wifi drain, of which there are many simple fixes for. If it's wifi.. turn scanning OFF, and change wifi to 2.4gHz only.. Then RESTART your phone. the restart is a must,

I don't understand why you would want to deal with it if it's bothering you , plus you're within that time period to either exchange or return. So id say exchange for another unit, if problem still persists then it's your decision to keep it or return it.
I've never used my nexus or any nexus I've ever owned not rooted but if you root and use naptime app to get aggressive doze going ... I get 7 hours to 1% battery drain on standby always. I use Pure Nexus & Dirty Unicrons roms. But if you are one who likes Note phones and whatnot then nexus probably isn't for you.

I'm having somewhat higher than expected idle drain. After 7 hours of sleep, my battery has drained down to 93% from a full charge. The last Android I owned was the HTC One M7, and then had the iPhone 6 and the 6S the past 1.5 years and neither of the phones experienced this high of idle drain. Always on display and night clock are disabled.
I enabled aggressive doze mode within Greenify (I did not hibernate any apps) and also turned on notifications for when and how long doze was activated for. Even after 7 hours of laying flat on the table next to my bed, nothing. In my week of owning this phone, I've only ever seen the doze notification from Greenify ONCE, and it only dozed for ~3 minutes within the hour of laying still.
Screenshot of battery usage overnight (plus some use during breakfast) and also the Greenify settings. Surprise, high Android System use.

Does anyone else feel that the doze feature of Android 6.0 is not working as intended on the S7?

Have you tried without Greenify? On my 6P I found that having Greenify active actually drained more battery than having it inactive... Not sure why though.

I'll disable greenify tonight and test it out. FYI, I'm not hibernating any apps. I just installed greenify to enable aggressive Doze mode
Aggressive doze is an experimental feature, it may just not detect doze correctly, because of changes made by Samsung and just eat more juice by checking and trying to trigger doze. But that's just a wild guess.

Doesn't it need root for aggressive doze? I've also had problems on my 6P with Greenify and other doze-modification apps actually causing more harm than good, causing doze not to initialize.

No, Aggressive doze in Greenify doesnt need root.
I tested last night by disabling Tmobile apps, FB Messenger, and Pushbullet and aggressive doze worked!
This morning I reenabled FB Messenger and Pushbullet and left the Tmobile apps disabled - Doze still activated. I reenabled tmobile - doze did not activate.
TLDR: I believe Tmobile app is causing crazy wakelocks and doze will not activate.
If you want to test this, install Greenify, enable aggressive doze mode and notifications. Start off by keeping tmobile app enabled. Let your phone sit on a desk for 10 minutes, see theres any Doze notification.

Mine will doze with the T-Mobile app active, but I also have pr.adapt active, I read that if you disable it, and have the T-Mobile app active, you may have issues.
I will try disabling both. but I got 22 dose cycles today totaling 5hr 31min, with both active today.

How do you know you got 22 cycles with Samsungs crappy battery visualizations?
Greenify messes up the doze function big time.

Dont use Sammys battery visualization. I use GSAM, under the wake locks you can see the Doze sessions and under the graphs it shows as well.

GSAM looks good. Thanks.
Greenify definitely forces the phone into the doze mode and it works. From my testing, it definitely activates doze mode more often than not. Aside from installing Greenify, i haven't played with any of the settings aside from turning Aggressive doze mode on. One thing i have noticed is that if you use AOD or Night Mode, the phone won't go into doze mode, with or without Greenify. I have verified with GSam. Hopefully its a bug cause otherwise those 2 functions are useless unless you have the phone plugged in. Hope this post helps.

If my samsung devices isn't root, will i see the doze sessions in GSAM ?
I'm having some issues with my phone being awake when it is charging. I've checked the most obvious causes such as daydream, and the keep awake setting, but neither were active.
I'm not sure what actually keeps it awake as battery stats end up being erased at 100%. I have Wakelock Detector installed but that doesn't give me any conclusive evidence either since again, the stats are gone once the phone is fully charged. This is mostly an inconvenience as after disconnecting the charger, the battery use is about normal and I can control the wakelocks through Greenify, Amplify and the Privacy Guard's keep awake function.
Has anyone else experienced/solved this issue before and what did you do?
My current setup is:
Android 6.0.1
Resurrection Remix ROM
Nevermore Kernel
I have noticed that most ROMs above 4.4 seem to have an adverse effect on battery life on my S4 and my Galaxy Tab 2. 6.0 seems to be giving me the same standby time of 4.4 however on my tab, so I was hoping that it'd do the same for my S4 as I want to move away from using the Davlik runtime.
Always awake on charging is normal habit, you don't need to worry such thing.

Not for Samsung it's not .....at least not on the 4 Samsung devices I own (the AMOLED screens on them would get horrendous burn in if the screen remained on for long periods of time).
There is an option in
Settings>>developer options
that will prevent the screen from sleeping while the charger is plugged in, but the default setting for this option is disabled. Just double check to see if it has been enabled......
It wasn't normal in 4.4 nor 5.1, so either this was changed in 6.0 or my kernel is forcing this behavior, I may try switching kernels. As I mentioned previously, the dev options don't have anything enabled that would cause it to keep awake.
Hi guys, I recently got a Samsung S6 Edge+ which is running Marshmallow 6.0.1 Un-rooted.
What the problem seems to be is that even if I am not using my phone ,whether that me day or night, the battery will always deplete. I decided to run a test at night where I had Greenify (un-rooted mode): hibernate all apps; aggressive doze=on; automated hibernation=on; alternate screen off mode=on;Don't remove notifications(limited)=on. I also had wifi off, location off, airplane mode on, power saving mode enabled, bluetooth off, mobile data off, nfc off and sync off. Only notification apps that were running where lastpass fill helper, finger security and pixoff battery saver.
So I charged my phone up to 100% last night and left it on sleep at 11:06PM. I woke up at 8:58PM only to see my battery had depleted to 63%. This gives an overall depletion rate of 3.75%/hour [(100-63)/(9.86666 hours)]. I don't know what the problem is as my mum's samsung s7 edge only loses 1% overnight and the phone has wifi, sync, cell, all on.
I can't send my battery usage details because of the XDA spam message thing but the battery usage only says Device Idle 100%

You have a rogue App. The only way is to factory reset and reinstall your apps one by one.
It's a pain in the bum but it's happened to me and this fixed it.

Thanks, I was willing to root it and use amplify and all that stuff but yea I guess I will have to factory reset it. Another thing is, could it be that my battery is bad because I got my phone refurbished.
