Marshmallow WiFi battery drain issue - X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just updated to Marshmallow with the OTA update. Having massive battery drain. Especially from WiFi. Have already switched off WiFi and Bluetooth scanning under Settings > Location. Is factory reset working?
Can't post screenshots. : (

after updating you should do a factory wipe from recovery. and let the battery settle it may take a few charging cycles.

Please before creating a new thread straightaway, read the whole forum completely.
There is a special android 6.0 issue thread. Let the phone settle down a bit. Also in wifi advanced settings turn the keep the wifi on during sleep option to never.
And then let phone go through 2 or 3 discharging cycles.
If still then you get this wifi drain, do a factory reset.

Hi. Thanks for the solution. I did what you said and have less battery drain today. However, it is inconvenient to have WiFi off while the phone is in sleep.
Also, apologies for posting a new thread about an old problem. I had read through a couple of posts but did not find a comprehensive solution hence I started this thread.
Anyway, i will do a factory reset and update shortly.

the fix is in turning off the wifi scanning in the location settings.

Thank you very much, done it! Even though, it happens to everyone? Or just some people?

I think I found another solution
I had the same problem, and turning off "wifi scanning" was not doing it for me. I believe the bug has something to do with "developer mode". I went to settings -> developer and under "network" I enabled "enable detailed Wi-Fi logging" and "always allow Wi-Fi searches".
Wi-Fi is no longer draining my battery, and I have "wifi scanning" enabled (under location).

Hi guys
I have the wifi drain after using Moto voice for a short while yesterday. I turned off and turned of location as well as wifi scanning but wifi is still at the top of the battery draining apps list. I used to get 2 hours sot by the time I git 80% but now I don't get that sot any more. All this started happening yesterday when I used Moto voice for the first time on 6.01 to try it out.
Any solutions or should I just wait a couple charge cycles?

Thanks! I had decent battery life on stock 6.0 but started noticing bad drain ever since I've been flashing custom ROM. I had indeed traced the drain to WiFi as others here, pretty much on all the ROMs I tried, and I couldn't figure out what setting was causing the drain. Turning off WiFi scanning in Location did the trick and I have my old battery life back.

Yeah the "drain" my device was reporting wasn't actually draining anything.

Have you tried checking if wifi scanning is enabled in location settings? If so then turn it off

Yes you need to update your ROM, it's quite outdated now but I don't think that's the issue. What about your battery drain in Airplane mode? Use Current Widget and see how much ma battery drain it is, mine is 2ma on airplane mode, 4ma with data and phone on, and 5-7ma with Wifi on.
Also your battery may be at the end of it life - they don't last for ever
Do you leave BT, Wifi and internet always on? that will produce the effects you are reporting on a battery past its best - or a cheap poor quality replacement (he says from bitter experience)
not about the battery..i have a new one, does the same thing
ill download the app you told me about and see how and what thanks

No, you need to lock the phone then give the reading when the phone has just been unlocked. This will show your battery drain on standby. With screen on the drain you have is very good actually. I think your issue may be battery calibration, search on the forums for how to do this.
i downloaded that app batterycalibration and i put my batt too 100%, pressed calibrate and pulled the loader out, its taking ages cus im not using my phone, currently its on 65% but i hope this will solve my problem!
ok it has been drained too 0% and went off....now what? i justr started it up again..shall i delete the app or what..?
Do you have any apps that are doing a frequent sync cycle that you may not be aware of? Facebook and Twitter come to mind. Have you also tried to go to the hidden phone feature screen and select GSM Auto PRL for your phone? Using the default WCDMA Preferred uses more battery in standby. Go to your phone screen and type *#*#4636#*#* and then a Testing Page will come up. Go to Phone information and look under Set preferred network type: and select GSM auto (PRL). I am using a two year old battery, Tytung's NexusHD2 v3.2 kernel r13 ROM with WiFi on, Bluetooth off, GPS off using the GSM auto PRL setting and just got 6% battery drain over 9 hours on standby for comparison.
Please have a look....
Hi,
I am using same Nexus ROM
But getting good standby battery life....
Maximum Standby Battery life I got was 19 hrs.
Please install SetCPU and Juice Defender.
Please find this thread to have a clear idea.

It shouldn't. By 'internet' could you please specify? Do you mean that WiFi isn't working, Mobile Data isn't working or the actual Browser app isn't working? Also, I assume you've tried checking in the settings that you didn't accidentally disable data?

Battery drain due to google services on JB 4.3

Hello community,
there has been a problem that is driving me insane for a few days. I have had this problem with I think all roms based on android 4.3:
google services keeps my phone awake!
WIth trickster mod I could see that my phone never (!) goes into deep sleep. Wondering about that, I flashed some other 4.3 roms - same result. Google services is No.1 battery consumer. Please don't say... "it's your apps or gps that keeps your smartphone awake" because it is not!
After some research I found that many users, most prominently 4.3 users, have a similar issue. Appearently, there has been some problem with that since one of the latest updates so that either google maps, gps, google now, or services in general cause this drain. Updating did not help, going back to an older gapps version did not help me either.
Finally I went back to miui being based on 4.2.2 and ever since the drain has stopped and my phone enters deep sleep almost immediately after switching the screen off.
Who has the same problems? Has someone found a real solution, other than deactivating all google apps? At least, this did not help me...

Thx I have read it but did not find a solution to my problem as most still suggest to turn off gps or wlan options... Although I have to admit that it is related to my problem but yeah... searching the xda app is more than difficult
one user wrote to stop wifi from constantly scanning... will have to try this the next time I am going back to 4.3 but surely many (or all?) users are suffering from this?
Same problem here.
Flashed XL based on cm10.2 + core jb gapps (20130821) and immediately noticed this insane battery drain. Battery stats showed Google Services as a main cause of the drain, so I did some researching, and found out, that switching Location improvement (Wi-Fi & mobile network location) would walk around that wakelock bug in google services. So I turned it off, and it helped for a couple of days.
Then I decided to sync my contacts with google account, and after a while, I've noticed the battery drain again, but this time nothing helps. I believe I've switched off everything I could in every Google app I have, and yet the drain remains.
Hy im allso having this problem, snice yesterday battery drain from google services ..im still on CM 10.1.2 (4.2.2) waiting for stable 10.2 to show up.. I keep all my sync and all locations off, no extra "funny" aps..not even facebook app.
(I have' service disabler ' because my phone was suffering from data lost..consumed by google framework..but it solve it..)
I allso search before posting but no solution since all location services that i have found are off since i have this phone..
Ps. New to nexus. Only about two months.. Any clue? Greets

Exactly the same problem. Keeping the wifi off, keeping mobile data off, keeping everything off does not help, CPU stays on the whole time!

When phone is in Doze mode should i be seeing any wakelocks in the battery graph?

Hello i have posted this over on Reddit but thought that i may get more info on the problem on this site.
Sorry for the long post.
I am trying to find out what is causing my battery to drain 10-15% over night.
i have tried a factory reset 3 times and nothing has fixed it but 3 hours ago i done one again for the 4th time and so far it is still at 100% and i haven't hardly touched the phone so i am not sure if the reset has finally worked ( this time i did uninstall whatsapp too)
My question is, in this 3 hours of hardly touching the phone it is still at 100% but it is still showing being awake quite a few times in the battery graph and i was wondering if that means it hasn't entered doze because it still shows wakelocks? i hope this makes sense

People on reddit think it may be a wifi wakelock issue and have told me to try it on 4g to see if i still get any wakelocks which i will try for the next few hours.
Also after doing a factory reset does the phone need a few days or cycles to get the battery to working properly?
I should also note that for the past 3 or so days i have been trying different tests in the night when i am sleeping to see if it is an app causing the battery problem. I only have 3 3rd party apps on my phone which are reddit relay, whatsapp and tapatalk.
1. The first night when i noticed the drain and all 3 were on the phone it dropped about 10-15%.
2. The second night i only had the apps that came with the phone (they all updated first but no apps were opened like chrome so i dont know if they were set up and i was signed in) and it dropped 2%
3. the third night i removed tapatalk and kept relay and whatsapp and it dropped 10%
4. Today 3 hours ago i have removed whatsapp and the battery stayed at 100% for just over 3 hours until i picked it up and started using reddit and chrome so it seemed to not drain as fast but i still have all those wake locks.
Do you guys think it is the wifi wakelock problem or maybe an app? if it is the wifi problem will a new phone fix it as reboots and restarts with this phone doesn't seem to or if i get a new phone will it happen to that one and its actually a problem with my wifi?
Again sorry for the very long post, i am just looking to see if i can get to the bottom of this before my 15 days are up to get a refund from google.
Sorry to hear about the battery issues. Lots of complaints since the update from 6 to 6.01.
I think you have until January 22nd to return the phone, if you purchased it recently from the Google store.

Not sure if you are rooted or not, but if you are then I highly suggest downloading the Wakelock Detector app. If you are not rooted then I suggest rooting because it is the fastest way to get down to the root cause of the problem (pun intended). It will show you each process/app that wakes the phone from most to least.
Without downloading that you will just be playing a guessing game of uninstalling 1 app at a time, which could take forever. So save yourself the trouble and download Wakelock Detector. I think it is pretty safe to say most of the wake locks are from apps, so please do not return the phone because of that. I do not think a hardware issue could affect software wakelocks, and if it was a stock software bug, most or all people would be experiencing it. Good luck, feel free to report back to let us know what you found with it if you do root and download it.

WIFI uptime 100% while it's turned off - battery drain

Hey,
I'm having issues with my nexus 6p phone where it seems to have some battery drain issues, when i'm checking the battery history the wifi uptime is 100% while it's actually turned off.
What i have tried:
Verifying wifi advanced options - turned everything off and changed freq to 2.4.
Location advanced options - turned everything off.
Looked in the xda forums , found a thread with the above solutions.
It's pretty annoying, my phone is updated to last version(this months update).
Have anyone else faced this issue as-well and solved it somehow?
Thanks in advance.

Battery drain on Nexus 6P
Hello,
I am experiencing the same issue. I tried few ROMs and Kernels, but since a month and something ago my Nexus 6P is having some serious battery drain issues. Before I managed to get over 5 hours SOT before, but then the battery drains began and now I manage to get only 3 hours and a few minutes at the best.... I turned off all of the potential settings that can affect battery life (scanning and location included) but it didn't help. It seems to me that my phone does not want to Doze (you can see it when you look at last screenshot)...
I am attaching screenshots from BetterBatteryStats (while using stock ROM and Kernel), and another screenshot from Settings->Battery while using ParanoidAndroid build.

I had the same issue for a while, but it has recently stopped. The WiFi usage bar is now empty. I haven't noticed any particular change in battery life whether it shows it or not so I would say it's nothing to worry about.
I've seen reports of this glitch from back when L was released. So it's probably no more than a glitch.

Personally, I wouldn't use the Facebook app. It's a huge resource hog. I use the mobile site. The bug discussed didn't actually cause battery drain though, it only showed on the graph as always on. You are most likely getting the drain from elsewhere. Try uninstalling Facebook and give it a 24 hour cycle. See if your results are better.
Also, I always recommend backing up and wiping internal storage once and a while. That can clear up a ton of issues.

Strange wakekocks (screenshots included)

Hey all,
Tonight my phone didn't go in to deep sleep. 2 wakekocks were causing this. Note: wifi was turned off all night. The culprits were: ipc00000132_PowerManagerSer and NETLINK, according to betterbatterystats.

I have the exact same problem and no idea what's causing the WiFi to wake the device all the time. Especially "qcom_rx_wakelock" is causing my device to be awake 60%+ during standby. And if I block this wakelock using EX Kernel Manager, other WiFi related wakelocks occur like netlink or ipc.
The only workaround is to go to WiFi options, and change "Keep WiFi on during sleep" from Always to Only when plugged in (or "Never"). But that's not a fix, just a workaround. I tried several roms, custom and official ones, as well as EX kernel and stock, all have this WiFi related wakelock problem, causing ridiculous idle drain.
If anyone knows how to fix this problem properly please let me know, I have WiFi around me almost 24/7 and therefore didn't choose a big data plan.

Are you sure mate? For me I get netlink wakelocks only when on WiFi.
You could try my workaround though, if you haven't applied it already, it helps until we find a solution.

Unfortunately I'm really sure. I turn it off every night. I'll give it a shot though! Hopefully, this will get adressed soon
Have you gone into the developer options? There's a setting called App Wi-fi Multi/Broadcasting Filter. The default position is off but the description says if you leave the filter off apps will wake the Wi-fi and drain the battery. I have the filter on and have zero problems with battery drain caused by Wi-fi wakelocks. If that doesn't work for you and you are rooted Franco has an app in the Play Store called Servicely that allows you to block services that wake up your phone.

I have that filter on, to no avail...
May I ask if you have changed any other relevant setting? Which OS/Kernel are you on? Or are you just using stock settings with the WiFi Broadcasting Filter turned on?
Cheers mate!

I'm just running stock. You might want to try one of Franco's apps if you are rooted--Servicely or Naptime. You might be dealing with a poorly programmed app.
