Check your background and sync services with your accounts. I've been running the same update and don't have any issues with system usage.

No unfortunately I can't because I'm stuck with AT&T.

Try this:

That suggestion has really done wonders to my battery life, thanks!

@NYYFan02 how long did it take to get to start showing results? After one cycle or two?

Wakelocks causing atrocious battery life.

I'm getting these wakelocks, causing my battery yo die very fast. 5 hours or so with very little use. Is anyone else experiencing anything like this? Or anyone know how to fix it?

What app is this that you are using? I use Better Battery Stats, but didn't enable it right at first. I noticed the battery life wasn't the most spectacular when I first got the phone, but I thought it was just due to me downloading hella apps and customizing it to my liking.

Same here mostly on wifi. I had the same issue on my Note 2 and I think it has something to do with my router (Netgear R6300). Very annoying

Where am I draining battery?

Stock ROM. Rooted and nothing else. How can I fix deep sleep?

One of your apps is keeping your phone awake. You need to check your wake usage to determine which app is causing the wakelock. Facebook and Google now are some of the biggest culprits. There are several battery saving threads here that will help you save battery.

You use greenify and greenify all suspicious apps.
I agree but its always good to know your problem apps.
Sent from my LG-D802 using Tapatalk
I don't use greenify

Then use it! It's a great app.

Isn't GSam made for Samsung phones?

Not that I am aware of. I have had it on my Droid 3 and HTC One and never had it show this type of odd usage information.
Mine seems fine on the X-Force - I was seeing very similar figures (negative percentages for apps) on my 5X. If only it was true... using apps charged your phone rather than draining it
So this happened today. Time to clear the data and see if that helps

I've been using GSAM without any strangeness for the past week.
Are you on Marshmallow? I just updated my Nexus 10 and I have same issue.

Marshmallow is already available for Turbo 2?!

It's not available on Turbo 2 yet. I am running stock image with a bunch of the bloat disabled.
Since my last post when I cleared the app data it has been stable, but it did take a few weeks for the problems to happen so I will keep an eye on the issue,

Inaccurate SOT times?

So this has been happening kinda recently. Samsung Battery info and GCAM are showing 2 different stats from full charge. What is the case? And which would be most accurate?

I noticed the same thing happening on my Sprint GS7E. I emailed the dev but no response, no updates to app. I think the SOT from Settings is more accurate.

Have been noticing the same. Sometimes after soft reboot the gsam monitor starts reading the percent o from from reboot time whole the screen on time and phone awake time remains the same and is not updated after soft reboot

Surely it has to be the latest number that is correct? One of them is losing count leaving the other correct.

I'm not sure! I was thinking maybe I needed a factory reset because something may have been causing this error in reporting different SOTs

Sorry, not latest. LARGEST value must be correct?

That's overkill. Hard reset the watch is my guess.
I agree is disaster, but am not sure it is watch issue or also phone. Yet phone I can not reset for sure as am out of my country and need bank apps working (issue with activation if not in home country).

That is the process that syncs data between your phone and watch.
Try resetting the watch as long as you can't reset the phone.
Set it up without restoring any backup.
