Hey guys,
I've joined the club and bought an Axon 7 A2017G.
In my first 2 days of usage, I noticed I needed to charge the phone at least twice per day.
After reading quite a few threads about this issue, I installed GSam battery monitor. It lists my SOT as 1hr 13 minutes, and battery life at 10 hours.
At turning just about everything off, installing Greenify and applying aggressive doze, I was no longer getting a wakelock.
I have however found that GSam shows that my screen is discharging over twice as much battery power, as compared to having the screen on.
I was wondering if this was normal, and if not, any suggestions in increasing battery life?
Not normal try a reset.
Something keeping the phone awake, haven't used gsam in ages.. betterbatterystats is far superior in helping track down what's keeping it awake but requires root.
You can use this app to access original battery stat. Works very well.

I'll try that next. I've just completed a factory reset, so hopefully that helps out.
I found it quite strange that Screen Off used more power (52%) than Screen on (20%).
GSam didn't report any wakelock, and the phone was in doze quite often.
Seems that the factory reset has done the trick.
Now trickle re-installing apps.
Fingers crossed that battery usage stays relatively normal.

How's the battery performing now?
Mine seems mediocre. After charging overnight I usually need to charge in the evening. I get about 10hrs per charge with 2-2.5hrs SoT. Are you getting better results than this after the FR?
Thanks!

As GSam hasn't gotten all required data yet, I will go off what Android reports.
I have used 30% of my battery in 9 hours, with approximately the screen on for 3 hours. Bear in mind that I've had wifi on for approximately 5 hours with a mixture of screen on and off.
Just having a stab in the dark here, but, two apps that I haven't redownloaded are Swiftkey and Nova Launcher. Instead I installed GBoard and Google Launcher. Don't know if that had mde any difference.
So yes, far better results after the FR
Evie launcher FTW

I think it's time to reset! Those are much better results, kind of what I was hoping for when I got the A7

I also did the force update to B09 before the FR. According to ZTE it offers improved battery performance, but I didn't notice any improvement from B08, whilst I used it.
Good luck and I hope the battery sorts itself out

I was a little confused what you meant by B09 but I see you've got the A2017G. I'm on the A2017U so I think my equivalent update is the B29 which is what I'm on. I've got tons of apps to backup so I'm going to try resetting tonight. Think I might unlock the bootloader and consider rooting while I'm at it

I've been using cm13 and sometimes Android system drains too much, so I will go to TWRP and wipe dalvik cache and it greatly improves battery life. Takes 20 minutes, but is great for getting 5.5 hrs sot.
Hi All,
From Past 2 weeks... am Facing Phone Idle Battery Drain...
I have tried everything.... - Factory Resetting, etc....
The problem even persist in Safe Mode also...
Is it a Hardware issue ? or A Clean system Reflash might help ?
PS: My phone is not rooted.
For me after I'm uninstalling the snaptube, all it's turns normal... Maybe you use some app has draining your battery ?(software)

I also thought the same...But I didn't install any new apps other than Pixel Launcher.... And Now...I Uninstalled it.... Still facing the same problem.
I guess it is just the horrible LG software. I also experienced extreme battery drain in standby and could not figure out why.
I decided to flash the Resurrection Remix ROM onto my LG and look at that... Amazing battery life with the same usage and same apps installed.
My battery now drops 2% over night. With stock it was 9-10%.
I know it might not be the answer you are looking for. All I am saying is: maybe the Oreo update will help for Stock solutions.
There are reports out there that show amazing battery life with stock but they often disable a lot of services which in my eyes is not the purpose of a phone. Other than that... Try your luck with Greenify or something like that (could be hard to reach real results here without root though).

Hmm.... But I hav paid 760$ to buy this phone.... Why Should I settle for less ? If its a budget phone...then Ok...but this is a Flagship Device.... I am going to take this to Service Center. These Battey Problems are irritating me.
As far as I remember, that idle battery drain is known issue in Android 7.0 and our precious G6's have 7.0 and probably will never get 7.1 which has this problem fixed, LG rarely releases incremental updates, mostly only releases new devices with newer software (V30 has 7.1, Q6 also has 7.1 and their battery life is great).
7.0 bug causes "Phone Idle" thingy popping up in battery stats almost always on top, sucking up to 1000+mAh of battery in my case so I have to charge the phone almost every single day which is a little bit frustrating considering phone's battery and that it lies unused for around 8 hours every day as I have to leave my phone in locker room when I'm at work. This is the only thing that I hate in this phone.
We have to wait for Oreo... which also makes me a little bit nervous because 8.0 also has many bugs... Yes, 8.1 is right behind the corner but that strange LG update policy will probably halt our phones on 8.0...

Being able to have numerous apps for different purposes downloaded on your phone is what makes our smartphones so good. However, there may be a few that are resulting in rapid Android OS battery drain., without you even knowing about it.
Try These
Stay in Power Saving Mode
Reduce Display light
Try using the App Greenify, helps you identify which apps are causing battery drain, and put these into hibernation when you are not using them, to stop them from lagging your device and leeching the battery

MAJOR Increase here in Battery life with Android Pie... Anybody Else?
Or is it just me? I'm getting at least 2 additional hours (if not more) of screen on time per day after taking the OTA to Pie on Monday... For Example...
Yeah, that's not terrible I reckon?

Battery life seems better after I flashed Nathan's 3.0 kernel!
My battery life is quite a bit worse. Nothing has changed in my use of apps. On 8.1 July I would have just under 50% battery remaining. I use a slow charge dock at night next to my bed with Sleep as Android running, and back to 100% in the morning.
Now on 9.0 I am at less that 30% end of day, with the slow charge dock sometimes it just maintains charge, but often it decreases. This morning I was at 12% with 24% showing last night at bedtime.
When I plug into the dock, I check that charging shows on the lock screen and led light. I manually turn of always on display and enable immersive display with tiles in the pull down menu to insure the screen being blacked out at night, even though Sleep as Android runs.

My Battery life has gone for worse after installing P all fresh.. Battery life was good when i was on beta, once i moved to Final release of P and wiped everything for fresh start.. battery life been worse.. need to charge battery every 8-9 hours.. usage is same as i had earlier . I have even uninstalled many apps which were present on 8.1 and P beta...
Pretty disappointing.. Not sure if its only mine Pixel 2 XL.

Battery is def worse for me. I did OTA at first and then clean install. Same result. My battery life is better in 8.1 with always in display vs 9.0 WITHOUT always in display. Idle drain is worse also on 9.0 for me. I downgraded back to 8.1
Battery life for me has been better overall as well. Not a dramatic increase, as it was already pretty good on O, but it is noticeable.
Battery is not good for me on 9.0 why are some getting good and others not? Same hardware and software?

Hardware yes, software no, we all use different apps.
I'm trying to track it down, but the Battery section is showing nothing. I just installed BBS and granted the adb permissions hoping that will show me something.
And even if two people have the exact same apps installed, everybody has different usage of each app.

How are you getting this kind of battery. I used to get that on my galaxy S8+ but can't get 8 hrs sot on my pixel 2xl. I usually get maybe 7 max. Any tips?
Im not seeing any difference with the new feature adaptive battery, its neither worse or better
So in other words... Some ppl the worse than before, some better than, and others are getting about the same, all to varying degrees... That's nuts for real...
On 9.0.5 was getting around 8-9hrs SOT now it's down to around 6. Have erased cache in recovery and restarted. I shouldn't have to do a hard reset after every update so I don't know what the issue is. I haven't installed anything else and have the same settings on as I did before the update. I'm unrooted add well.I just curious if anyone else is experiencing a decrease in battery life quality after the 9.0.6 OTA?

Same, checked what is draining the battery but everything seems fine.
Same for me: after update SOT 6.5-7h, before around 9h. No root
Mine was worse on 9.0.6 unlocked bl with magisk.
After that I used the MSM tool just to use it so I can learn.
After the MSM tool full restore battery was life was better.
I was also stock kernel and after the restore I put ElementalX.

That's one of my points though, we shouldn't have to do a full restore every single time when taking an update

Honestly, the battery life is still ridiculous, still a no brainier to get this phone, even with this update, but no doubt they'll fix it in the next one, it's just a pain, I'm really wondering if anyone's found a fix, and waiting for the next update is going to be anoying, but patience is a virtue lol

Very true. I'm experiencing worse battery like but I'm still going 6+ hours sot and 30+ hours on a charge. It's like a Moto z play but flagship speed.
My idle drain is amazing still. Drops 2-3% in 8 hours if deep sleep. It's just seems to drain faster while screen is on.
Has this issue been fixed with 9.0.7?
There are no battery drain issues with this device.
If you're expereincing bad battery life, tweak your settings or put your brain to work and figure out why. Stop blaming it on the OS, as it should be common knowledge by now to understand that battery life is completely subjective to the user and their location and usage habits, so it will vary widely from user to user...it is what it is. This device is capable of astounding battery life, period.

I agree.
I have not experienced worse battery on 9.0.6 at all. What I have noticed is my usage has changed over time (honey moon period)
Perhaps your usages /locations have changed?
Switching from WiFi to celullars (especially outdoors when your removing about) make a big difference.
I agree the battery is great.
After being on 9.0.7 since release I feel its slightly better so far.

See that's what I initially thought, but even with the 9.0.7 update, the fact is there is no usage difference at all on my part, no change of location, no change of settings, literally not a single thing different from the day before apart from the cache wipe. I have the exact same app usage and no major apps have been updated. For me personally I don't change my habits at all, and whether I or anyone else use any app 10 min more or less than the day before shouldn't make this big of a difference, especially such a drop. I'm not saying the battery life is bad after the update, don't get me wrong 6-7 hrs of SOT is amazing on any phone, i'm just pointing out that clearly then at this point it does in fact have something to do with a change in the OS right, especially if these minor differences in less then what I would give everyone's 5 most used apps they use daily are causing a 1-2hr drop in average SOT...

I've never gotten 8 hrs SOT, 6 hrs at most and it's always been like that since day 1.

And what if it's an app which got updated and started behaving strangely and sucking battery juice ? I would start with that then use BBS to look for detailed battery usage ...
Btw It says 72% in 11 hours because i had the phone with justo the screen off all the night, but It normally says i have around 4 hours of screen time. But as i said in the title, gsam says that, it may be that im misunderstanding what the percentages mean, because my settings use of batery says another thing.
I recently flashed the Evolution X ROM, but It was the same with the oxygenos 11 stock rom
EDIT: i justo checked gsam percentages are how much time It was used, not how much of the batery It has used, so nevermind
EDIT 2: Still, i think 4 hours of screentime is still too low, could It be that my battery is damaged??

You are using a custom rom. I dont use this phone for a month anymore but the last time i used it auto brightness was broken on custom roms and no fix in sight. So display was the biggest battery drainer.
This was never the case on OOS roms.
Anyway for me the battery of the op8pro was some of the disadvantages. Im now using the Nothing Phone 1 and its like day and night.
Nothing is focusing on software optimisation and you can feel it.

I don't use auto brightness no I don't know, i always set brightness to 50% and pretty much never change it. Anyway, this custom ROM is amazing, is super smooth and one of the best experiences I've ever had with a phone. After some use the battery is not as good but it isn't bad either so i will stick to this until my phone fully breaks or something.

After some use the battery is not as good but it isn't bad either so i will stick to this until my phone fully breaks or something.

I think this is what I should check, chrome is because I was using it to read something.

I was on their A13 Evo X and my battery life was bad. I went back to AICP A12 which is an excellent rom also.

Do you remember how much battery duration you had from one full charge with Evo x and with AICP??

I guess the biggens drain was when it was supposed to sleep like being in your pocket or face down. The battery just click down no matter what I did. I did not let it drain since I am a full charge freak.
In contrast AICP barely uses anything when the screen is on AOD. My phone has been on for 15 hours right now and is at 47% with about 6 hours of use. I think if I didn't charge on the EVO X rom, it want last about 8 hours under the same conditions. I like the rom and wish I could use it but I have a weird feeling like I am being ripped off when my battery drains that fast.

Same, but the rom is so smooth and since the battery is still better than stock i'll keep this rom until i really need to flash another one because of the battery life
