I just got my phone a couple of days ago, and seem to have some insane battery drain. I leave it on overnight and in the morning it seems to be down to about 10%.
Is anyone else seeing this sort of issue?
Here are some screenshots:
While the battery is OK but not stellar, I notice you have Wi-Fi on? Turning that off overnight helps immensely.

I had a UK axon 7 A2017G that would only last 4 hours from full charge with everything switched off except mobile. In the end I had to return it to the supplier. Sadly they don't have any replacement phones. I received it on 29th July.

My second unit arrives today so if battery is poor I have 30 days to return. That should be more than enough time to evaluate.

I have a Galaxy S4 running 6.0.1 from JDCTeam that gives me way better battery life with WiFi turned on all night, and runs way more apps than this phone (plus, the battery is just 1850mah). I suspect that there might be a lot more going on under the covers here with respect to hidden services. I am not happy with the fact that the battery usage stats are hidden.
Should I root and try to use betterbatterystats to figure out the real problem? or maybe just assume its defective and ask for a replacement?
I think you need to turn this off too. Otherwise, it will keep searching for wifi even you turn the wifi off.
I'm having no battery drain issues. I have the Grey one.
I have turned off mipop and voice print. Dunno if that could be the culprit.
Turning off Smart Power Save increased my battery life
I have the same issue... 10 to 15 % drain over night other than that the phone it's amazing... When I got the phone before I even turn it on I got in recovery an did like 3 times a factory reset ... I'm gonna keep the phone for 2 more weeks if the drain continue I'm sending it back to newegg ?

No bad drain here, I only dropped 2% overnight (11pm -7am)....Wifi was on and I received several emails and a few text that were waiting when I woke up.
yeah the battery was massively overrated pre-purchase
Thanks dougm0 and Barsky ... I turned off Smart Power Save, MiPop and Voice Print. I also made sure that the location section was only using GPS (not wifi+bluetooth), and it all made a difference. I still feel like I can squeeze out a lot more performance here. My deep sleep numbers in better battery stats has improved, but it's still not where I want it to be. As I make more tweaks and get better battery life, I will post screenshots and settings tomorrow (maybe it might help someone else).

Something I always notice that you might also want to take into account. When you get a new phone you are not using it as you will regularly be using it after the new period wears off. You are probably testing all the different aspect of the phone and just plain messing around in ways you do more of when the device is new. I always get horrible battery time in a new phone
No issue with battery drain - left my phone at 100% overnight with WIFI ON, in morning it was at 97%. I think I will take it as 3% drain over 8 hours.
You most likely have an app that's causing wake lock issues. It's a common problem on any phone.

My battery is amazing on this device.
I Don't mean to rub it in anyone's face that have these issues. Must be an app that's causing it.
Coming from Note 4 and Moto X Pure. This is twice better. I don't read screen on time on this device because it doesn't show it. I don't even need those stats. After 16 hours of the charger with same use I get home with 40%+.
My Note and X Pure were dead by then or have been connected to a charger by that time.
Hope y'all figure it out.
Battery life on my phone is not that great either. It's not horrible but I expected better. I think it drains 3% in 4 hours with wifi and sync on. I did turn off all the scanning and battery saving feature.
I recently noticed the battery on my phone was just 3140 mAh instead of 3250 mAh like on the website says it should for the US model. Can you please confirm what capacity your battery has?

It's 3250 for the US model, but there is an issue with the partition where it still shows the original 3140 mAh instead. It has been notified to ZTE and they said that it will be fixed in the next update.

I have samsung galaxy s2 just over a month or so and i have big problems, due to battery. I know this is common issue on this device.
Until now i try to recalibrate battery like that, no hard reset. The phone it;s new and it had ICS 4.04 installed on the first place.
1) drain all of your battery untill phone shuts down
2) turn on and drain battery until phone shuts down ( repeat until you are unable to turn the phone on- this step is very important because we need to drain the battery competely)
3) take the battery out and wait 5 seconds or so and put it back in
4) Charge the battery while the phone is off
5) when the charge is 100%, take the charger off then charge again to get 100% again
6) turn on your phone and enjoy your new battery
Once i try to take the battery out after charge, and wait over 2 minutes. I know this is a common issue of s2, but i have some screens, maby someone had similar problem.
----------
-------------
Next, i'll try Battery Calibration (can't post the link, new user) tool from the market / wait for Jelly Bean official update. Then hard reset. Next step: service.

The batteries in these phones can't be calibrated per se. Just use it normally for a bit. The peaks and troughs in your battery graph are because you're clearing the fuel gauge data. Mine would drop from the 73% I'm on now, to about 14% if I cleared the fuel gauge chip data, until it relearnt its settings. Just charge normally and use it for a few days, it will sort itself out.
If not, new battery.

Im having the same problem. Tried swapping batteries with another S2, recalibrating the battery and even installed another rom, same problem persists. The phone will auto switch off after a few hours of not using (overnight especially), and batter will drain like mad when it happens. Brought the phone back to samsung for repair now.
Same here...

I'm currently having the same (really annoying) problem. My international GS2 is less than a month old and uses the latest official firmware on ICS. It happens almost daily -- or should I say nightly? The phone has at least 60-70% of battery left by the time a go to sleep. When I wake up in the morning, it's completely depleted. My stats look exactly as in the screen-shots in the first post. I'm always charging/using it "normally" but it hasn't sorted itself out.
I don't really know how to solve this and it's frustrating. The Internet has mixed "feelings" about the solution(s)... However, same as with my battery issue, I'm looking for something more stable and reliable.
Am I missing something? Does anyone know the exact cause and how to fix it?
Hello, I took the phone to a local service (pointed by Samsung from my country) and they replaced my motherboard and another pice of hardware....something in the recharging sistem, i dont know details. I think there is a "lot' of bad motherboards... people form the service call it a generic name.
In conclusion, the problem was the motherboard, not battery. I have recovered the device from service one day ago, if i'll experience any problems... i'll get back with details.
Cheers
Ive been using an iphone 5 and Optimus G Pro for the past 8 months waiting for the new androids to come out this fall and I am quite disappointed. I have the ATT version, i have wifi, gps, bluetooth all off, never had to do that on the iphone. I close out all the apps and clear the ram, and I went through 30% overnight while I was sleeping. My Optimus G Pro was far better on battery and that seems kinda backwards?
Is there like a break in period or something, what is the deal here

You have to figure out what application is causing the "wake lock"
What a wake lock is; Its something running in the background that is not letting the phone "sleep" or otherwise go idle. Meaning your phone is running full speed ahead while you are sleeping.
It could be all sorts of things causing a wake-lock. I had one guy on my ROM have a wakelock because his internet connection was so poor the phone just kept searching and he was draining about what you are draining everynight.
Another thing I would look at are your location settings, not just GPS. The new Google settings Icon has a bunch of crap that it syncs and tracks you via all sorts of stuff. Go in there and make sure nothing is turned on you dont need...
And lastly, like the other guy said, check for a battery stat app. They can show you what app is not sleeping or why your phone is not sleeping like it should.
Facebook is a notorious offender. With refresh off I would get over 140 wakelocks in a 7 hour period.

mine is way better now, after being off the charger for 3 hours I'm at 94% where as yesterday I was probably at like 70% at this point.
Don't forget most android handsets need a 72 hour battery calibration window before you will see a more even battery level. After 72 hours your phone should have a good batch of data to help gauge its power levels.
Battery is fantastic on this phone. Coming from an X and Note 2.
I'm still on my 2nd full charge but notice once the phone huta around 60% the percentage drop starts to slow down, I figure this is just calibration getting dialed in and so far I'm very happy with battery life.
fd toggle
Hi there, I am not sure if this is the reason but I used to have Fast dormancy toggle apk on my old lgog to prevent the phone from complete discharge even though I was not actively using the devicd. I installed the fd toggle here,too and I can honestly say that if I am charged 100 % at about midnight, I have the same 100 at about 6:30 when I get up. Of course, no data,no sync,no wifi and no active use of any kind during that time. I do not know if the app is the key but the result is pretty impressive. I have the korean version F320K.
I was using the Snapdragon Battery app on my DNA. Never sure if it did anything. Is it worth using on the G2 as well? Love the phone! Less gimmicky than the S4 and more interesting than the Maxx.

This is dumb. My G2 was at 100% battery for 3 hours! You either have a lemon or your cell reception is poor where you are. The battery life is not horrible.
Yeah, I'm with the rest. I'm coming from a MAXX HD (insane battery) and the battery optimization on the G2 is far superior (albeit smaller battery).
Bought the phone over 24 hours ago and I am still on the charge from the box. Its running great for me with LTE on.
So I read that updating the push notification app in the Samsung app store is supposed to improve the battery performance of the S6 and Edge. I am glad to report, at least from my experience it has DRASTICALLY improved battery performance!!! I took my phone off the charger at 3pm EST time today at 100%. I have been using my device quite moderately(Edge) all day long and as of right now 11:32pm EST my device sits at 71% battery left. This is quite amazing! Not even half way through my battery and its almost midnight. Have not charged once! EXCELLENT job sammy! I suggest everyone go and update the Samsung Push Notification service app ASAP

It's a push service for Samsung apps like s-planner, chat-on etc. I don't use any of Samsung apps so have disable it.
My phone was on 100% before I want to sleep, woke up 7 hours later and it was showing 97%. This was with WiFi off and mobile data and sync on.
I got an update this morning (around 240MB, not sure if same as OP) mentioning photo editor improvements and some other things but I'm finding that my battery life has improved quite a bit. Not sure what Samsung have done but so far I've been 12hrs 40m on battery with wifi, mobile data, NFC, BT, location, sync all on, and screen on (auto-brightness/100%) for 3hrs and still have 45% battery left. Bloody fantastic! Was struggling to get that kind of performance from my G2!

So I have verizon version.
I went to bed with 80% on my HTC 10
And 60% on my S7e also verizon version.
I woke up with 63% on HTC 10 and 59% on S7e. Both phone had 30% of android system but for some reason HTC leaked battery.
Idk what is reason for this, fingerprint sensor? Double tap woke up sensor?

Did you root or s-off or anything else? Did you uninstall or disable some apps? I had this problem a few times with my HTC M8... Turns out almost always reason was I disabled or uninstalled some apk which gave phone wakelocks... I had 20+% drain through the night and after I fixed it I had 1% per night (8 hours)... So if you have anything changed, flash stock rom and dont delete anything just wipe dalvik cache and cache.. if problem persist you can try factory reset...
Attached pictures you see what looks like when you have wakelocks and how it should be when phone is in deep sleep... No "Awake" when screen is OFF:
I have a completely stock VZW 10 and I lost 15% over night. I've noticed apps will show in usage that I have never opened, mostly Verizon's junk though.
My unlocked version sleeps like a baby. Might be some Verizon apps draining your batteries. I lose about 3% overnight (about 8 hours)

Its probably WiFi drain. Firmware 1.30 should fix it.

HTC 10 will probably never do that. S7E has 3600 mAh battery. 10 is only 3000. I'm very happy with the battery of the 10, but I'm coming from the M9 which has rather poor battery life.

Wi-Fi drain? I'm on 1.21.617.3 and only lose 3-4% overnight (about .5%/hr) with Wi-Fi, bluetooth, NFC all on. There is nothing wrong with the stock build as far as battery drain. I also have not modified any Google backups or apps as far as syncing and backups go.

They originally said by then end of the last week but that did not happen, I hope soon though. You will get the updated directly from HTC, not AT&T. I had the unlocked M9 on AT&T and got the Marshmallow update in December from HTC. They still have not released it on AT&T.

I'm also having battery drain. I got the phone Monday and that night I lost about 35% overnight. I fell asleep listening to music over bluetooth so I thought maybe that was it. Then Tuesday night I charged it fully before bed. I took it off the charger at 100%, turned the screen off, set it down and went to bed. Woke up about 9 hours later and it was at 59%.
Android system was the claimed highest user, but it said it was only awake for 14minutes. The top 3 listed apps were Android system, Google Play Services, and Phone idle.

Maybe the same tricks that worked on the S7E will work on the 10.
You guy's should try turning off all usage statistic reporting to Google and HTC.
Also check in the developer options to see if any bloatware processes are constantly running. If you find one then just disable it's package.
it has been months now having to deal with this issue.
i really love my 6p but I've got tired of having to charge my phone every three hours. it shuts down when recording video when the battery below 50% or giving the CPU a hard task like searching a long excel sheet. i cant open Snapchat when below 50% fearing that it will shutdown and its not may or may not it will shutdown .
i don't think its a hardware failure because when it happens twrp boots up just fine but cant mount data and it shows the real percentage. while ROM shows 1% and shutdown. it happens with all ROMs even the stock ones.
I live in a country where there is no support from google or any hardware store ( they don't even know the name of the phone ).
this issue have put me in many awkward moments I've waited for a long time towards a solution maybe that's it. and it is time to move on ??.
Its a hardware fault, as in as much as your battery needs replacing. Well known issue where the battery degrades causing this issue.
You could install Accubattery and do a health check to conform this.

I live in asia and There is no stock of the 6p's battery everywhere here even in Huawei stores and service centers. I got mine from an online site and have it shipped to me. It took a while but it was worth it. Its like new again (bought this device 2nd hand and already have the degraded battery).

What batteries did you guys buy? I have battery issues. Phone dies but twrp shows another value. Sometimes drops by 2% instead of 1%

There is no more original battery for our 6p almost everything that is being sold is a chinese knockoffs. But I got a Beltron Battery. I also like the cameron sino (good reviews) but the price is 2x the price of beltron if when i ship it to my country. But, So far no issues. 1hr 45mins SOT and i still have 70% (Fb, YT, Web browsing, instagram and etc). Today is my first day of using this battery. Fingers crossed.

I've never heard that one. But I've heard I've had to be careful with sino as most are fakes now. But I've also heard good ones about Cameron sino x longer? Or something.
Very much would appreciate your advice on this as I don't want to pay for a fake. As I plan to get a new charger, battery, screen protector and case for it. But with the battery as it is now. Wouldn't be worth it

I suggest Beltron like mine, most of the batteries doesnt have any temp sensor. It doesnt bother me that much. I suggest using a 1A charger. Slow charging but it doesnt stress the battery so much like the OEM charger. My wild guess is that the charger is the reason why the battery degrades so fast. Good luck with your 6p!

Agree... but what does Accubattery say your battery capacity is? 1st day feel of the pants is feedback, but having data would be better. Run the app, and after a few full charges let us know how this battery compares to the one it replaced. You *may* have found a great replacement. Thanks.

Ill download the app again. I always forget using that app. Last night i charged it 30%-100% in just more or less 3hrs using 1A charger. i was asleep that time. Today I'm using the phone non stop. Off wifi and off cellular since i have a dedicated daily driver for my social life using this device just for entertainment. Today I've been reading manga using an app non stop @ 50% brightness. Here are the screen shots of my battery in settings. I think its good. Ill return with accubattery data later
Any links for recommended battery instructions?

it has been months now having to deal with this issue.
i really love my 6p but I've got tired of having to charge my phone every three hours. it shuts down when recording video when the battery below 50% or giving the CPU a hard task like searching a long excel sheet. i cant open Snapchat when below 50% fearing that it will shutdown and its not may or may not it will shutdown .
i don't think its a hardware failure because when it happens twrp boots up just fine but cant mount data and it shows the real percentage. while ROM shows 1% and shutdown. it happens with all ROMs even the stock ones.
I live in a country where there is no support from google or any hardware store ( they don't even know the name of the phone ).
this issue have put me in many awkward moments I've waited for a long time towards a solution maybe that's it. and it is time to move on .

My wife had the same problems and got a Pixel.
I ordered a new battery for around $20, put it in and now it's like a new phone. I swapped out the Sim card from my Moto z and now it's my daily driver. By the end of my shift it's still at 80%
I bought a brand new Nexus 6P and have had it for a month now and I must say, coming from the LG G5, its a damn shame the 6P's battery doesn't live up to the potential some phone batteries do. I would recommend doing a health check for your battery once a month at least, it's what I do to keep an eye on things. There are some good apps for monitoring your usage and longevity quite accurately.
Nevertheless I still prefer my 6P to the G5 :silly:
If your want an OEM battery here is one https://goo.gl/jmYfn9 the seller runs out but seems to get more in. I bought this one and had five and a half hours screen on time when I plugged in at 8% battery left. Mine was shutting down as soon as it hit 20%

I have to object to the that factor that the battery on the 6p doesn't live up to its potential, well I'm making a statement out out of that comment, I bought an replaced my own battery, even went as far as adding new thermal paste in the places required, I also have my device rooted an pretty much battery mod central on my device, I have had it for 5 days on deep doze settings an it's at 68%. I had insured my journey with complete overall satisfaction, I have added a 3600 an it came 2 days after I Ordered off Amazon, for 15$ free shipping, can't beat the fact is the way a device should run, no just a nexus 6p, I mean ll devices, if you can oot it when your phone is new, you can max your battery potential to the extreme, if you've had the device like me for 3+ years, every battery saving option I went through trial and error Makin that thing last for 3 hours if it was rooted with doze settings and lasted an hour max if not rooted. So I went the do it youself an learn something an it wasn't hard one bit. Charged It till full an turned it on an let it do its thing, I can't tell you how many of you need to change your battery out an buy a new phone. let's be clear an unrooted phone will never exceed battery life for the reasons of the hogwash they add o it an cause it to drain, if you eliminate the drag you'll get your full potential on battery life and only 15$ than forking out 500$ on a new device, work smarter not harder. Seeder, amplify, greenify, power nap, servicely, naptime, xposed, better battery stats, tasker, appcontext, powersving.apk,magisk doze mods, I recommend them all on magisk even if they are repoed, fix the prop for the present time if you know what your doing, Lspeed Is a great tool to have, I use elementalx an tweaked my settings for battery another great tool for battery conserving is [All+ROMs]+Galacticâ„¢+DeepSleep+MOD+[Super+Battery+Saver], find an flash it in recovery. For all devices.
If there are any questions on those apps or have any fed back let me know. Good luck.
